50.messages【分析】本文為說明文。一項研究表明，現在的大部分成年人小時候都做過家務，而現在的大部分孩子不像以前的孩子那樣做很多家務了。而研究證明，從小做家務的孩子們長大之后會在家庭、學校和社會上表現更好，而且更獨立。所以父母要培養孩子們從小做家務的習慣?！?1題詳解】考查副詞。句意：最近的一項研究表明，大多數成年人在年輕時主動做家務。分析句子結構可知，空處修飾謂語動詞，修飾動詞要用副詞，所以要用active的副詞形式actively?！?2題詳解】考查冠詞。此處的“study”就是上文提到的“study”，是特指，故用定冠詞the表示特指。【43題詳解】考查固定搭配。句意：今天的父母希望他們的孩子把更多的時間花在能給他們帶來金錢和榮譽的東西上。spendsth.onsth.為固定搭配，意為“把….花在….上“?？芍颂幪罱樵~on?！?4題詳解】考查固定搭配。句意：他們已經停止做被證明能帶來成功的事情。那就是做家務。根據語境可知，這里說的是“停止做某事”，而不是“停下來去做某事”，故用stopdoingsth.【45題詳解】考查定語從句。分析句子結構可知，空處在句中引導定語從句，先行詞為kids，關系代詞在從句中作主語，因此本空填who/that?！?6題詳解】考查固定句型。句意：在3歲到4歲開始做家務的年輕人更有可能成功。belikelytodosth.為固定句型，意為“某人有可能做某事“，所以本處要填tosucceed。故用不定式tosucceed。【47題詳解】考查固定句型。句意：據說個人幸福來自于牢固的人際關系。本句含有“besaid＋動詞不定式”結構，且這里說的是現在的一般情況，主語為Personalhappiness，因此填issaid?！?8題詳解】考查形容詞做表語。本空應填形容詞helpful與kind并列作表語。故填helpful?！?9題詳解】考查固定句式。句意：如果你的孩子說他們不得不停止做家務，因為現在是他們做家庭作業的時候了。It'stime(that)

為固定句型中，that從句要用虛擬語氣，即從句謂語用一般過去式或“should＋do”，其中should不可以省略，故填dealt/shoulddeal?！?0題詳解】考查名詞的復數。message是可數名詞，其前沒有冠詞，故要用其復數形式messages?！军c睛】It'stime…句型是中學英語里使用頻率較高的句型，其意為“該是……的時候了”。It's（high/about）time+that從句時，that可省略，time可由high,about修飾，從句中的謂語動詞有兩種形式，或者用動詞的過去式(be用were)；或者用shoud+動詞原形（should不能省略)。此句型為虛擬語氣句型，表示“現在某人該做某事了”。含有該事早該去做而未做，現在去做似乎都為時已晚的意思。例：

It'shightimethatthearticlewerepublished.發表這篇文章是適時的。

It'stimeyoushoulddocleaning.

你該去打掃衛生了。Itistimethat…正是干……的時候了，high/about只是對time的強調。從句謂語動詞要用過去式或用should加動詞原形，但should不可省略。如“孩子們早該睡覺了”，有兩種譯法：Itistimethatthechildrenwenttobed.孩子們該睡覺了。Itishightimethatthechildrenshouldgotobed.該是孩子們上床睡覺的時候了。20.短文填詞（共10小題；每小題1分,滿分10分）閱讀下面短文,根據以下提示：1）漢語提示,2）首字母提示,3）語境提示,在每個空格內填入一個適當的英語單詞,并將該詞完整地寫在右邊相對應的橫線上。所填單詞要求意義準確,拼寫正確。OrganizedbytheStudents’Union,wewatchedthenewly-releasedsci-fictionmovie----2012last______(星期三)evening.Inthemovie,the
