本篇文章難度適中，主要講述在一個(gè)遙遠(yuǎn)的村莊盛產(chǎn)土豆，土豆豐收后，他們都將土豆按照大、中和小的尺寸分好。一次，當(dāng)他們?cè)趯⑼炼狗诸悤r(shí)，他們看到一個(gè)男人在村里說(shuō)說(shuō)笑笑，人們以為他很懶惰，但是他很聰明。他將土豆放到車上，當(dāng)他拉這車在粗糙的路上走時(shí)，小的土豆移動(dòng)到下面、中等大的土豆在中間而大的土豆在最上面。通過(guò)這件事告訴我們，生活也是如此，粗糙的道路也能幫助我們。

【1】句意：這個(gè)村莊的土豆比全國(guó)任何地方都多。

根據(jù)空前was可知，空處用形容詞，且根據(jù)空后than可知，用形容詞的比較級(jí)形式，故答案為richer。

【2】句意：在每個(gè)生長(zhǎng)季節(jié)結(jié)束時(shí)，成千上萬(wàn)的土豆從地里挖出來(lái)，準(zhǔn)備上市。

根據(jù)所給單詞thousand以及空后of可知，表示“成千上萬(wàn)”，用thousands of“成千上萬(wàn)”，故答案為thousands。

【3】句意：在每個(gè)家庭，男人們和女人們都忙于將土豆分為三組：大、中和小。

根據(jù)句式可知，主語(yǔ)為men and women，謂語(yǔ)為would divide，所以空處用副詞修飾動(dòng)詞divide，故答案為busily。

【4】句意：當(dāng)其他的村民正在工作時(shí)，他說(shuō)著笑著在村子里散步。

根據(jù)句意可知，譯為“村民們正在工作”，且根據(jù)空前were可知，用過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)，故答案為working。

【5】句意：村民們認(rèn)為他是懶惰的，并且他們擔(dān)心這個(gè)男人不能及時(shí)將土豆準(zhǔn)備好。

根據(jù)空后可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù)villagers可知，空處用冠詞，且根據(jù)句意可知，特指這個(gè)村的村民，用定冠詞the，且空位于句首。故答案為The。

【6】句意：村民們認(rèn)為他是懶惰的，并且他們擔(dān)心這個(gè)男人不能及時(shí)將土豆準(zhǔn)備好。

根據(jù)句意可知，譯為“及時(shí)將他的土豆準(zhǔn)備好”，空處用物主代詞，且根據(jù)空后名詞potatoes可知，用形容詞性物主代詞，故答案為his。

【7】句意：在他們問(wèn)了這個(gè)男人如何做到的之后，他們理解了他不是懶而是聰明。

根據(jù)ask可知，空處引導(dǎo)賓語(yǔ)從句，且根據(jù)When it was time for the villagers to go to market, they were greatly surprised to find that the man's potatoes were divided perfectly into three groups“當(dāng)村民們到了去市場(chǎng)的時(shí)候，他們驚奇地發(fā)現(xiàn)這個(gè)人的土豆被完美地分成了三組”可知，村民們問(wèn)這個(gè)男人是如何做到的。how如何，怎樣，表示方式，故答案為how。

【8】句意：在他們問(wèn)了這個(gè)男人如何做到的之后，他們理解了他不是懶而是聰明。

根據(jù)句式可知，空處填連詞，并列lazy和clever。且根據(jù)He had put all his potatoes in a cart and pulled it along the ______9______( village) rough(粗糙的) dirt road. As the cart moved up and down over the road, the potatoes moved too. The small potatoes moved to the bottom, the larger potatoes rose to the top and the medium potatoes rested _______10_______the middle“他把所有的土豆都放在一輛大車?yán)�，沿著村里的土路拉著。�?dāng)馬車在路上上下移動(dòng)時(shí)，土豆也移動(dòng)了。小土豆移到底部，大土豆移到頂部，中等大小的土豆在中間”可知，村民知道了這個(gè)方法之后，改變他們對(duì)男人的看法，即“他不是懶，而是聰明”，not…but…“不是……而是……”，故答案為but。

【9】句意：他把所有的土豆都放在一輛大車?yán)铮�沿著村里的土路拉著�?/span>

根據(jù)空前the以及空后rough dirt road可知，表示“村莊的路”，所以空處用名詞所有格。village’s村莊的，故答案為village’s。

【10】句意：小土豆移到底部，大土豆移到頂部，中等大小的土豆在中間。
