【題目】B) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容及首字母提示，填寫所缺單詞，并將答案填寫在相應位置上。

A young man went to see a wise man, saying that after graduation, he set many goals for himself, but years later he still achieved nothing. With a smile, the wise man said to him, “Come to help me boil(使沸騰) the water first!”

The young man found no f【1】 in the stove, so he went out for it. He came back with some dead wood, put them in the stove and burned up. B【2】 because the pot was too large, when the firewood burned out, the water did not boil. Then he ran off to get firewood. When he went back, the water had nearly turned c【3】 . This time he became smart, so he didn’t light the fire in a hurry, but went out to look for some firewood again. Because the firewood was well p【4】 , the water boiled pretty soon.

The wise man suddenly asked him, “If there is not enough firewood, how should you boil the water?” The young man thought for a moment and s 【5】 his head.The wise man said, “If so, pour out some water!” The young man n 【6】 thoughtfully. The wise man continued, “You set too many goals at f【7】 , just as there is too much water but you didn’t have enough firewood, so you couldn't boil the water, and if you wanted to make the water boil, you e【8】empty some of the water or prepared some firewood!”

The young man saw the light suddenly. When he went back, he removed many listed goals from his plan, l【9】only a few recent ones, while with spare time he studied. A few year later, his goals were realized.

Only by starting from the next goal can you move toward the s【10】 step by step. If you keep all things by heart, you will only give up halfway.

【解析】

短文講了一個年輕人問了一個睿智的老人，想知道他為什么不能實現(xiàn)他人生的所有目標，然后老人讓他燒了一壺水，通過燒水這件事情回答了他的問題。

【1】句意：年輕人發(fā)現(xiàn)火爐里沒有柴火，所以他就是尋找柴火。

考查名詞。根據(jù)后文“He came back with some dead wood,”他抱了一些枯木回來，所以可以看出此處是沒有柴火，firewood，不可數(shù)名詞，故填firewood。

【2】句意：但是因為鍋太大了，木柴燒光了，水還沒燒開。

考查連詞。由句意可知，年輕人把柴火燒光了水都沒有開，所以表轉(zhuǎn)折，故填But。

【3】句意：當他回去時，水幾乎變冷了。

考查形容詞。根據(jù)前文意思可以推斷出，此處水變冷了，故填cold。

【4】句意：因為木柴準備好了，所以水很快就開了。

考查動詞。由前文“he didn’t light the fire in a hurry, but went out to look for some firewood again”可知他準備了很多木柴，所以填prepare，又因全文都是講的過去的故事，所以用過去時，故填prepared。

【5】句意：年輕人思考了一會，然后搖了搖頭。

考查動詞。根據(jù)句意，前文老人問了問題，后文老人自己回答了出來，說明年輕人不知道答案，所以搖了搖頭，填shake，又因此處是過去時，故填shook。

【6】句意：年輕人沉思著點了點頭。

考查動詞。由前文老人給出了答案，所以此處年輕人接收到了答案，所以點了點頭，填nod，又因此處應是過去時，故填nodded。

【7】句意：你首先設(shè)定了太多目標。

考查固定搭配。由文中年輕人設(shè)定太多目標是在最開始的時候，又因有at，所以是固定搭配at first，故填first。

【8】句意：如果你想讓水沸騰，你要么倒一些水，要么準備一些柴火。

考查連詞。此處是老人給了兩個選擇，倒一些水出去或者多準備柴火，表示二選一，故填either。

【9】句意：當他回去的時候，他從他的計劃中刪除了許多列出來的目標，只留下了最近的一些，而利用業(yè)余時間他學習。

考查動詞。根據(jù)句意前文講到刪除了一些目標，所以此處應該是留下了leave一些目標，又因后文while表示與此同時，所以前面的動詞要用ing形式，故填leaving。

【10】句意：只有從下一個目標開始，你才能一步步走向成功。

考查名詞。根據(jù)前文的the可知，冠詞是用于名詞前，故填success。

首字母填空題對學生的詞匯量要求很好，首先要聯(lián)系上下文判斷出來此處應該填什么單詞，再根據(jù)單詞的詞性來判斷該詞應該用什么語法形式。
