()8. She stared at the magician's tricks in , unable to believe her eyes.

A.amazement
B.amaze
C.amazing
D.amazed

8. A

【分析】首先分析句子结构，空格前是介词in，介词后通常接名词、代词或动名词作宾语，因此需要判断四个选项的词性，选出符合语法要求的名词。
【解析】句子中“in ______”为介词短语作状语，介词in后需接名词。选项A.amazement是名词，构成固定搭配“in amazement”，意为“惊讶地”，符合语境；选项B.amaze是动词，C.amazing是形容词（修饰事物），D.amazed是形容词（修饰人），均不符合介词后接名词的语法要求，因此选A。
【答案】A
【知识点】介词用法、词性辨析
【点评】本题考查介词后接名词的语法规则及同根词的词性辨析，属于基础语法题，需掌握不同词性的单词形式和用法。

()9. — Could you tell me how to improve my writing?
— Well, reading and writing every day is a good way.

A.practise
B.practising
C.to practising
D.practised

9. B

【分析】这道题考查非谓语动词作主语的用法。首先明确句子结构，答语中需要一个成分作主语，动词原形不能直接作主语，因此先排除A选项；D选项是动词过去式，同样不能作主语，排除；C选项“to practising”结构错误，不定式符号to后应接动词原形，介词to才接动名词，此处不符合；动名词（doing形式）可作主语表示经常性、习惯性的动作，符合“每天读写”的语境，因此选B。
【解析】答语中“______ reading and writing every day”在句中充当主语，需使用非谓语形式。A项practise为动词原形，不能直接作主语，排除；D项practised为动词过去式，也不能作主语，排除；C项to practising结构错误，to作为不定式符号时后接动词原形，此处用法不当，排除；B项practising是动名词，可作主语表示经常性的动作，符合语境，故答案为B。
【答案】B
【知识点】非谓语动词（动名词作主语）
【点评】本题为英语基础题，主要考查动名词作主语的语法规则，需掌握不同非谓语动词在句中作主语的用法差异，难度较低，适合初中阶段学生练习。

【分析】本题考查-ing与-ed形容词的用法区别，需明确：以-ing结尾的形容词多修饰事物，表“令人……的”；以-ed结尾的形容词多修饰人，表“感到……的”。第一空修饰事物“result”，第二空修饰人“you”，据此可判断答案。
【解析】首先区分两类形容词的用法：①以-ing结尾的形容词，用于描述事物的性质，修饰事物，意为“令人……的”；②以-ed结尾的形容词，用于描述人的感受，修饰人，意为“感到……的”。第一空所在句主语为“the result（结果，属于事物）”，需用修饰事物的形容词，故填satisfying；第二空所在句主语为“you（人）”，需用修饰人的形容词，故填satisfied，因此选A。
【答案】A
【知识点】形容词辨析（-ing/-ed形容词）
【点评】本题聚焦英语中-ing与-ed形容词的核心差异，属于基础词汇辨析题，只要掌握修饰对象的区别即可快速解题，是初中英语的常考基础题型。

【分析】
本题为英语句子补全题，需结合语法结构、固定搭配及汉语提示完成句子：
1. 第一题考查现在分词作伴随状语，主语与动作是主动关系，用watch sb doing sth结构对应“看着孩子们在院子里玩耍”；

3. 第三题考查固定句型It's hard to do sth，需填不定式结构对应“判断他的真实想法”；
4. 第四题要求用can't afford结构，结合汉语“许多家庭负担不起出国旅行”组织句子；
5. 第五题要求用lead sb to do结构，注意时态（过去式）对应“老师的鼓励使她更加努力地学习”。
【解析】
1. 句子已有谓语动词stood，空格处作伴随状语，用现在分词短语，watch sb doing sth表示“看某人正在做某事”，故填watching the children playing in the yard；
2. 空格处作状语，compare with表示“与……相比”，与主语e-books是被动关系，用过去分词形式，故填Compared with paper books；
3. 固定句型It's hard to do sth，“判断他的真实想法”译为judge his true thoughts，故填to judge his true thoughts；
4. 用can't afford to do sth表示“负担不起做某事”，“出国旅行”是travel abroad，时间状语“如今”译为these days，故填Many families can't afford to travel abroad these days；
5. 用lead sb to do sth表示“使某人做某事”，动作已发生用过去式led，“老师的鼓励”是The teacher's encouragement，“更加努力地学习”是study even harder，故填The teacher's encouragement led her to study even harder。

1. watching the children playing in the yard
2. Compared with paper books
3. to judge his true thoughts
4. Many families can't afford to travel abroad these days.
