大众热点 和谐家庭 [2024四川广元中考改编]
阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,在空白处填入一个恰当的单词或括号内所给单词的正确形式。
It was nine on a cold winter night. I hurried to go home from work on my bike.
While I was waiting for the green light by the side of the road, 56 old man waved and walked towards me. I felt a little nervous. He said 57 (slow), "Excuse me, could you please help me?" I looked at him up and down. He looked about seventy years old. He took out ten yuan and said, "You see the old lady over there? She 58 (sell) baked sweet potatoes. Could you just take the money and buy one 59 her?" He pointed at the woman about fifty 60 (meter) away.
"But 61 don't you buy it yourself?" I was puzzled(困惑的). The old man continued, "That old lady is my wife and it's her 62 (one) day to sell baked sweet potatoes. She forgot to take gloves with her. I know she can't stand the cold because her legs hurt, too. She told me there was only one sweet potato left and that she wouldn't go home until all the sweet potatoes were sold out. I'm very 63 (worry) about her."
At that time, I 64 (understand) everything. I felt really warm and moved. Without 65 (take) the money, I rode fast to the old lady and bought the last sweet potato.
56. 57. 58. 59. 60.
61. 62. 63. 64. 65.

56. an 考查冠词。根据上下文可知，一位老人挥手并向作者走来。当第一次提到“一位老人”时，要用不定冠词来修饰old man，old是以元音音素开头的词，其前的不定冠词要用an。
57. slowly 考查副词。此处表示他慢慢地说话，设空处修饰动词，应用副词，故填slowly。
58. is selling 考查动词时态。根据其前提到的“你看到那边的那位老妇人了吗？”可推断，她正在卖烤红薯。本句对应的时态是现在进行时，主语是She，故填is selling。

60. meters 考查名词。根据其前的fifty可知，设空处要填可数名词meter的复数形式。故填meters。
61. why 考查特殊疑问词。根据下文中老人的回答可知，此处作者的疑问是“你为什么不自己买呢？”，why符合题意。
62. first 考查序数词。根据“这是她第一天卖烤红薯”可知，设空处要填序数词first。
63. worried 考查固定搭配。be worried about是固定搭配，意为“为……感到担心”。故填worried。
64. understood 考查动词时态。根据上下文可知，此句的时态是一般过去时，设空处应用understand的过去式。故填understood。
65. taking 考查动词的 - ing形式。根据设空处前的介词Without可知，此处要填动词take的 - ing形式。故填taking。
