【分析】
填空题解题思路:
1. 第1空:表示“第六个节气”需用序数词,序数词前要加定冠词the,因此将six变为the sixth。
2. 第2空:句子主语It指代Guyu,与start、end是主动关系,前面用了starting,此处并列结构也用现在分词ending作伴随状语。
3. 第3空:修饰名词name要用形容词性物主代词,it的形容词性物主代词是Its,注意句首首字母大写。
4. 第4空:修饰名词days需用形容词,rain的形容词形式是rainy,用来表示“雨天”。
5. 第5空:考查固定句型“It's the best time for sb. to do sth.”,意为“对某人来说是做某事的最佳时间”,所以填动词不定式to work。
6. 第6空:前半句“我们不知道仓颉是否真的创造了文字”和后半句“谷雨成为纪念仓颉和汉字发明的日子”是转折关系,用连词but连接。
7. 第7空:修饰动词falls要用副词,usual的副词形式是usually。
问答题解题思路:
1. 第1题:从文中“The period sees warmer weather and an increase in rainy days.”可总结出谷雨期间天气温暖多雨。
2. 第2题:根据“In Chinese myth before 2500 BC, Cang Jie created a set of characters...”可直接找到答案是Cang Jie。
3. 第3题:从文中“Grain Rain Day has become a day to honour Cang Jie and the invention of the Chinese language.”直接提取信息作答即可。
【解析】
(一) 填空:
1. 此处表顺序“第六个”,用序数词且前加定冠词the,故填the sixth。
2. 主语It与end为主动关系,和starting并列作伴随状语,故填ending。
3. 形容词性物主代词Its修饰名词name,句首首字母大写,故填Its。
4. 形容词rainy修饰名词days,意为“雨天”,故填rainy。
5. 固定句型“It's the best time for sb. to do sth.”中用动词不定式,故填to work。
6. 前后句为转折关系,用连词but连接,故填but。
7. 副词usually修饰动词falls,故填usually。
(二) 回答问题:
1. 根据文中“The period sees warmer weather and an increase in rainy days.”可知,谷雨期间天气温暖且多雨,故答案为It's warm and rainy.
2. 根据“In Chinese myth before 2500 BC, Cang Jie created a set of characters...”可知,神话中仓颉创造了文字,故答案为Cang Jie.
3. 根据文中“Grain Rain Day has become a day to honour Cang Jie and the invention of the Chinese language.”可知,谷雨是纪念仓颉和汉字发明的日子,故答案为It is a day to honour Cang Jie and the invention of the Chinese language.
