1.actively 分析句子结构可知,空处修饰谓语动词,故要用副词形式actively。 2.the 此处的“study”就是上文提到的那个“A recent study”,故用定冠词the表示特指。 3.on 根据固定搭配spend sth. on sth.可知,此处填介词on。
4.doing 根据语境可知,这里说的是“停止做某事”,而不是“停下来去做某事”,故用stop doing sth.搭配。
5.who/that 分析句子结构可知,空处在句中引导定语从句,先行词为kids,关系代
词在从句中作主语,因此本空填who/that。
6.to succeed 此处是be likely to do sth.句型,故填不定式。
7.is said 本句含有“be said+动词不定式”结构,且这里说的是现在的一般情况,主语为Personal happiness,因此填is said。
8.helpful 本空应填形容词helpful,与kind并列作表语。
9.dealt/should deal It’s time (that) ...句型中,that从句要用虚拟语气,即从句谓语用一般过去时或should+do,其中should不可以省略。
10.messagesmessage是可数名词,其前没有冠词,故要用其复数形式。
