29、ng into a large room.The wall of the room was made of trees.The leaves of the trees provided _9_ with muchneeded oxygen.After having a meal and a bath, Li Qiang found himself _10_(exhaust) and then he slid into bed.文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了李强和王平乘坐时间飞船穿越到未来的故事。1had_traveled解析：考查时态。句意：这是他第一次太空旅行。固定句式：It is/

30、was the.time that主语完成时态，意为“这是某人第几次做某事了”，如果主句是一般现在时，从句通常使用现在完成时；如果主句是一般过去时，从句通常使用过去完成时。所以填had traveled。2Transported解析：考查分词作状语。句意：被王平父母的公司运送，他坐着时光机器来到了未来。本句主语he与动词transport构成被动关系，要用过去分词作状语，所以要填Transported。3to_tolerate解析：考查不定式用法。句意：起初他发现忍受新环境很难。句中it是形式宾语，真正的宾语是不定式短语to tolerate the new surroundings，所以要填

31、不定式to tolerate。4for解析：考查介词短语。句意：因为缺少新鲜空气，他的头很疼。介词短语for lack of意为“因为缺少”，表示上下文因果关系，所以要填介词for。5a解析：考查固定搭配。句意：王平把他送到一个小房间里休息。rest“休息”，可数名词，所以要填不定冠词a。6swiftly解析：考查副词。句意：很快李强就可以和王平飞得一样快了。在英语里副词通常作状语修饰形容词、副词、动词或整个句子；而形容词通常作定语修饰名词；句中应该使用副词修饰动词fly。所以要填副词swiftly。7But解析：考查连词。句意：但因为有很多朝着各个方向飞行的车厢，他看不到王平。根据句意可知，

32、上下文之间是转折关系，要用表示转折关系的连词，所以要填But。8flying解析：考查现在分词。句意：但因为有很多朝着各个方向飞行的车厢，他看不到王平。名词carriages与动词fly构成主动关系，要用现在分词短语作定语，作用相当于定语从句，所以要填现在分词flying。9it解析：考查代词。句意：树叶给房间提供了迫切需要的氧气。代词it可以指代上文提及的同一事物，本句中it指代前面一句中的名词room，所以要填it。10exhausted解析：考查形容词。句意：吃完饭洗完澡以后，李强发现自己非常疲惫，就上床睡觉了。形容词exhausted意为“疲惫不堪的”，该词通常修饰人，在本句中作宾语补足语补充说明动词found的宾语himself，所以要填exhausted。
