When Mike, an American student, joined his Korean friend's family dinner, he felt 1—he didn't know any Korean table rules.
The family's habit of sharing one dish with chopsticks was 2 to him, as Americans usually use separate plates.
Then, an 3 moment came: He accidentally knocked over a cup of tea. Mike's face turned red immediately.
He felt 4 (disappoint) with himself for making such a silly mistake.
But the family's warm smiles and gentle comfort were 5—they didn't mind the small accident at all.
Gradually, Mike became 6 and started chatting with the family.
The spicy kimchi(朝鲜泡菜) on the table tasted 7—it was hotter than he expected but full of flavour.
He found the family's stories about Korean festivals 8—the traditions were totally different from his own.
After three hours of eating and talking, the long dinner felt a bit 9, but Mike didn't want to leave.
He never felt 10 during the night—every part of the dinner was a new and interesting experience.

2. surprising
3. embarrassing
4. disappointed
5. impressive
6. relaxed

【分析】
首先通读全文梳理叙事逻辑：本文讲述美国学生Mike参加韩国朋友家宴的新奇体验，题干给出的10个词汇均为描述情绪感受的动词。解题核心思路是先明确两类形容词的用法差异：-ed结尾的形容词通常修饰人，表示“某人自身感到……的”，-ing结尾的形容词通常修饰事物，表示“某事物本身令人……的”，再结合每空前后的语境语义，匹配对应词汇并转换为正确的形容词形式即可完成填空。
【解析】
1. 后文提到Mike完全不了解韩国的餐桌规矩，说明他当下的感受是困惑的，修饰人Mike的主观感受，将confuse变为形容词confused。
2. 韩国家庭共用一盘菜的习惯和美国人使用独立餐盘的习惯完全不同，这个习惯对Mike来说是很意外的，修饰事物“家庭用餐习惯”，将suprise变为形容词surprising。
3. 后文提到Mike不小心打翻了一杯茶，脸立刻红了，说明这是一个令人尴尬的时刻，修饰事物“突发的意外场景”，将embarass变为形容词embarrassing。
4. 固定搭配feel disappointed with sb表示“对某人感到失望”，此处是Mike对自己犯了傻错感到失望，修饰人Mike的主观感受，将disappoint变为形容词disappointed。
5. 家人温暖的笑容和温柔的安慰完全不在意这个小意外，这样的善意举动是令人印象深刻的，修饰事物“家人的安慰行为”，将impress变为形容词impressive。
6. 逐渐地Mike不再拘谨，开始和家人聊天，说明他的状态变得放松了，修饰人Mike的状态，将relax变为形容词relaxed。
7. 桌上的泡菜比预想的更辣但风味十足，尝起来是令人愉悦的，修饰事物“泡菜的口感”，将please变为形容词pleasing。
8. Mike发现这家人讲的韩国节日的故事和自己了解的传统完全不同，这些故事是令人惊叹的，修饰事物“节日相关的故事”，将amaze变为形容词amazing。
9. 三个小时的吃饭聊天时长很久，这场漫长的晚宴有点让人疲惫，修饰事物“长时间的晚宴”，将tire变为形容词tiring。
10. 后文提到晚宴的每一部分都是全新有趣的体验，说明Mike全程都不觉得无聊，修饰人Mike的主观感受，将bore变为形容词bored。
【答案】
1. confused
2. surprising
3. embarrassing
4. disappointed
5. impressive
6. relaxed
7. pleasing
8. amazing
9. tiring
10. bored

【点评】
本题是初中英语典型的词形转换类短文填空题，核心考察学生对同根情绪类形容词的用法区分能力，同时要求学生结合全文叙事逻辑和上下文细节匹配对应语义，只要掌握两类形容词的修饰对象差异，结合语境推导就能顺利作答，易错点是混淆修饰人和修饰事物的形容词形式。

六、选择短语并用适当形式补全句子。(10 分)
|be embarrassed about|in common|be used to|keep... off|go a long way|
|----|----|----|----|----|
I used to 1 speaking in front of the class. My hands would get sweaty, and my voice would shake. My teacher, Ms Lee, noticed this. She told me that many great speakers felt the same way at first. “A little practice 2,” she would always say.
She gave me a helpful tip: “Try to make your eyes 3 your notes and make eye contact with your friends.” She also pointed out that I had a lot 4 with my classmates, which meant they were a friendly audience, not judges.
I took her advice. I practised my presentations(报告) again and again until I 5 the feeling. It was difficult at first, but it became easier. Finally, after a successful book report, my best friend ran up to me. She congratulated me on my clear voice and confident smile. I felt so proud that I had faced my fear.

1. be embarrassed about
2. goes a long way
3. keep; off
4. in common
5. was used to

【分析】
首先第一步先梳理题干给出的所有备选短语的含义，再通读整篇短文，把握全文讲述的是作者克服当众发言恐惧的故事，结合每个空前后的语法规则、上下文语义逐一匹配对应短语，同时根据时态、固定搭配要求调整短语的正确形式，最后代入通读检查逻辑是否通顺。具体思考路径：1. 第一空看到used to后接动词原形，结合后文发言时手出汗声音抖的状态，对应“对当众发言感到尴尬”的语义；2. 第二空是老师说的客观道理，主语是不可数的a little practice，要注意谓语的单三变形，匹配“少量练习作用很大”的语义；3. 第三空看到make的复合结构要接动词原形，结合后文要和同学做眼神交流，对应“让视线离开笔记”的语义；4. 第四空看到have a lot...with sb的结构，回忆固定搭配have...in common表示有共同点；5. 第五空结合反复练习的语境，对应“习惯这种发言的感觉”，注意全句过去时态调整be动词的形式。
【解析】
1. 第一空：used to 后接动词原形，根据后文“My hands would get sweaty, and my voice would shake”描述的当众发言的窘迫状态，可知此处表达“过去我对在全班面前发言感到尴尬”，对应短语be embarrassed about，直接填原形即可，故填be embarrassed about。
2. 第二空：引号内是老师陈述的客观常识，用一般现在时，主语a little practice是不可数名词，谓语动词要变为第三人称单数形式，短语go a long way意为“大有帮助、效果显著”，符合“一点点练习就会大有裨益”的语义，故填goes a long way。
3. 第三空：固定结构make sth do sth表示“使某物做某事”，结合后文“make eye contact with your friends”要和朋友眼神交流的提示，此处表达“让你的视线不要总落在笔记上”，短语keep...off意为“使……远离、不接触”，符合语境，故填keep; off。
4. 第四空：固定搭配have a lot in common with sb意为“和某人有很多共同之处”，符合后文“他们是友好的听众，不是评委”的语义逻辑，故填in common。
5. 第五空：全文叙事为一般过去时，短语be used to意为“习惯于……”，此处表达“我反复练习直到习惯了这种（发言的）感觉”，主语为I，对应的一般过去时be动词用was，故填was used to。
【答案】
1. be embarrassed about
2. goes a long way
3. keep; off
4. in common
5. was used to
【知识点】
固定短语搭配，主谓一致，动词固定结构
【点评】
本题属于语境型选词填空题，既考查学生对备选短语含义的识记能力，也要求学生结合上下文叙事逻辑匹配语义，同时兼顾了时态、固定句型的语法变形考点，提醒学生做这类题型时要先通读全文把握整体语境，不要孤立看单个空选词，选完后要代入全文通读校验逻辑和语法是否正确。

七、用括号内所给词的正确形式补全短文。(10 分)
At our school's International Culture Festival, Leo (from India) faced a lot of 1 (confuse)—he didn't know the social rules of other countries.
When he met a French student, he tried to shake hands, but soon realized it was 2 (proper) for their 3 (tradition) greeting (which is a kiss on the cheek).
Later, at the food booth(摊位), Leo learnt that table 4 (manner) vary(改变) a lot: In Japan, a small 5 (serve) of food is usually placed in each person's bowl.
It's 6 (common) to see people use forks in Thailand, as most people eat with spoons and forks together.
When Leo gave a speech about Indian culture, he dressed 7 (formal) in traditional clothes.
An 8 (embarrass) moment came when he accidentally called a Korean student by the wrong name—he felt sorry immediately.
These 9 (culture) differences made the festival more interesting.
At the end of the day, Leo 10 (receive) a souvenir from a Mexican student, and they promised to keep in touch.

1. confusions
2. improper
3. traditional
4. manners
5. serving
6. uncommon
7. formally
8. embarrassing
9. cultural
10. received

【分析】
这是一道语篇型词形转换题，解题可以按三步推进：1. 先通读全文，明确文章整体讲述过去发生的校园国际文化节相关事件，确定全文基础时态为一般过去时；2. 逐个分析空格前后的句子成分，判断空格处所需的词性，明确要填的是名词、形容词还是副词；3. 结合上下文语义、固定搭配规则，对括号内给出的原形单词做正确变形，同时留意特殊变形规则，比如否定前缀、分词形容词区分、固定短语的特殊单复数要求等。
【解析】
1. 空格前a lot of后可接可数名词复数，动词confuse表示“使困惑”，此处指代很多让人困惑的事，confusion表具体的困惑事件时可数，因此变形为confusions。
2. 根据后文“法国的传统问候是贴面礼”，可知握手不符合当地习惯，是不合适的，形容词proper“合适的”加否定前缀im-，变为improper“不合适的”。
3. 空格后是名词greeting，需要用形容词修饰名词，名词tradition“传统”变形为形容词traditional“传统的”。
4. 固定搭配table manners意为“餐桌礼仪”，是约定俗成的复数表达，因此将manner变为复数manners。
5. 空格前a small后接名词，动词serve此处表示“端上食物”，变形为serving，构成固定表达a serving of food，意为“一份食物”。
6. 根据后文“泰国大多数人同时用勺子和叉子吃饭”，可知单独使用叉子的场景并不常见，形容词common“常见的”加否定前缀un-，变为uncommon“不常见的”。
7. 空格处修饰动词dressed，需要用副词，形容词formal“正式的”变形为副词formally“正式地”。
8. 空格修饰表示事物的名词moment，要表达“令人尴尬的”，embarrass的-ing形式形容词embarrassing用于修饰事物，因此填embarrassing。
9. 空格后是名词differences，需要用形容词修饰，名词culture“文化”变形为形容词cultural“文化的”。
10. 全文描述过去发生的事件，时态为一般过去时，动词receive的过去式为received。
【答案】
1. confusions
2. improper
3. traditional
4. manners
5. serving
6. uncommon
7. formally
8. embarrassing
9. cultural
10. received
