【解析】【分析】文章大意：文章介绍了电脑的发明时间，以及电脑的用途。还有电脑对我们生活的影响。

（1）句意：第一台电脑是在1946年制造的。根据定冠词the，可知应使用序数词first，故答案是first。

（2）句意：它很大，但是工作得很慢。slow修饰动词worked，应使用副词slowly，故答案是slowly。

（3）句意：但是他们工作的越来越快了。空缺处指代前文的computers，因此使用they，故答案是they。

（4）句意：现在没有了电脑人们不能生活。因为电脑在我们日常生活中越来越重要。所以没有电脑就不能生活，没有without，故答案是without。

（5）句意：但是现在到处都可以发它。主语it 和find是被动关系，应使用被动语态，含有情态动词的被动语态是：情态动词+be+过去分词，故答案是be found。

（6）句意：我们可以用电脑读书、写信和购物，购物do shopping，固定搭配，故答案是shopping。

2．He was ________ （mention） in the letter.

【答案】 mentioned

【解析】【分析】句意：他在这封信里被提到了。mention是及物动词，根据句子机构可知是被动语态，be已经给出，行为动词使用过去分词mentioned，故答案是mentioned。【点评】考查一般过去时，注意动词过去式的变化规则。

3．阅读下面短文，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。

Strangely enough, some inventions are lost ________ people can't imagine their ________ （valuable）. A use may need to be "invented" along with the invention. An example is the fax machine. The technology for faxing ________ （invent）in the 1800s. It took more than one hundred years, however, for the fax to be seen as useful. In 1843 Alexander Bain invented a machine to ________ （electrical）transmit（传输）writing. At first, it was considered ________ （use）since few people thought there was ________ need for transmitting writing over ________ （wire）. Eventually the value of the invention was realized, and it was improved ________ office use. By the 1980s, the fax machine became a piece of standard ________ （equip）in offices. The reason is ________it can very quickly transmit written documents. Who knows how many other inventions just need to be recognized as valuable?

【答案】because；value；was invented；electrically；useless；a/any；wires；for；equipment；that

【解析】【分析】主要讲了一些发明因为人们不能想象它们的价值而失去，列举传真机器的发明来说明这点。

（1）句意：足够奇怪的是，因为人们不能想象它们的价值，所以一些发明消失了。后句表示原因，所以用because；形容词修物主代词修饰名词，their它们的，形容词修物主代词，所以后面用形容词valuable的名词value，不可数名词，故填because，value。

（2）句意：传真的科技在19世纪被发明。invent发明，实义动词，主语technology是动作invent的承受者，时态是一般过去时，所以用一般过去时的被动语态，结构是was/were+动词过去分词，主语technology是不可数名词，所以用was，invent的过去分词是invented，故填was invented。

（3）句意：1843年，亚历山大贝恩发明了一种电子传输文字的机器。electrical电子的，形容词，副词修饰实义动词，transmit传输，实义动词，所以用副词electrically，电子地，故填electrically。

（4）句意：起初，它被认为是无用的，因为很少有人认为有必要通过电线传输文字。be considere形容词，表示被认为怎么样，固定搭配，根据后文可知传真的作用后来才被认可，所以起初被认为是无用的，use使用，实义动词，其形容词是useless，无用的；原因是很少人认为有必要，few表示否定，所以用a/any；wire，电线，可数名词，前面没有表示单数的a或者one，所以用复数wires，故填useless；a/any；wires。

（5）句意：最终，这项发明的价值得以实现，并被改进为办公用途。为了办公用途才被改进，所以用for，为了，故填for。

（6）句意：到了20世纪80年代，传真机已成为办公室的标准设备。equip，装备，实义动词，形容词修饰名词，standard，标准的，形容词，所以用equip的名词equipment，设备，不可数名词，故填equipment。

（7）句意：原因是它能很快地传送书面文件。the reason is that...，原因是……，固定搭配，故填that。

（3）句意：它是比萨大教堂广场最古老的建筑之一。oldest为形容词最高级，形容词最高级前使用定冠词the，故答案是the。

（4）句意：塔不是设计的时候就是斜的，但是因为人们把它建筑在软的土地上，慢慢地就向一边倾斜。一开始设计的不是斜的，现在成为斜的了，与设计本身不符，因此使用转折词but连接，故答案是but。

（5）句意：即使人们因为倾斜不认为这是成功的建筑，但是它却在历史上赢得了特殊的地位。success作定语修饰building，因此使用形容词successful，故答案是successful。（6）句意：这座塔也曾被意大利科学家伽利略用来做实验。call以及后面的Galileo Galilei 作后置定语修饰scientist，意思为被叫做，因此使用过去分词called，故答案是called。（7）句意：每年，成百万的人游客聚集在塔前拍着经典照片，假装支撑着它，或者把它推倒。millions of固定短语，成百万的，故答案是millions。

（8）句意：塔顶有七个钟。bell钟，可数名词，根据seven可知应使用复数形式，故答案是bells。

（9）句意：然而，如果你在满月的时候去看斜塔，它看起来很迷人。本句为一般性的叙述，应使用一般现在时，主语the tower是第三人称单数，谓语使用三单形式looks，故答案是looks。

此处应用形容词quick的副词形式quickly修饰动词use“使用”。故答案为：quickly。

（4）句意：据英国广播公司报道，我们每年用大约150亿吨沙子建造房屋、道路和其他

东西。根据固定搭配 use sth. to do sth. 用某物做某物，可知此处用动词不定式to do做目的

状语。故答案为：to。

提示可知，填：since，表自……以来、因为、由于。句首单词首字母要大写。故答案为：Since。

（10）句意：开采沙可能会导致海滩消失，在靠近大海的地方会发生更多的洪水。根据beaches to disappear and more floods to happen in places close to the sea海滩消失，在靠近大

海的地方会发生更多的洪水，可知这些是开采沙所导致的后果，因此填：cause。may是情
