【分析】
做这道综合填空题,首先先通读全文,明确文章核心内容是介绍美国PPIE教育基金会举办跑步赛事为当地学校筹款的相关情况,整体时态结合了一般现在时、一般过去时和现在完成时。接下来逐个分析空格:遇到给出提示词的空格,先判断空格处需要的词性、时态、语态、人称/格的变化;遇到没有提示词的空格,结合固定搭配、句子结构、上下文逻辑判断,同时重点关注句中的时间标志词,比如Up till now、in 2020这类提示时态的线索,保证答案既符合语法规则,也匹配语境逻辑。
【解析】
1. 空前有不定冠词an,说明此处需要填入可数名词单数,动词organize对应的名词形式为organization,意为“组织”,符合语境。
2. 此处是固定搭配raise money for...,意为“为……筹集资金”,填入介词for。
3. 时间标志词Up till now(到目前为止)是现在完成时的典型提示,主语it是第三人称单数,因此谓语动词用has raised。
4. 空后是名词group,需要用形容词修饰名词,名词influence对应的形容词形式是influential,意为“有影响力的”,符合语境。
5. 主语The B.Y.D.和动词found(成立)是被动关系,时间状语in 2020是过去的时间,因此用一般过去时的被动语态was founded。
6. 空前是介词of,介词后要接人称代词的宾格形式,主格they对应的宾格是them。
7. 动名词Watching them run作句子主语,谓语动词要用单数形式,结合语境用一般现在时,填入makes。
8. 后文并列的谓语won是一般过去时,说明该动作发生在过去,因此complete也要用一般过去式completed。
9. 此处是感叹句结构What + a/an + 形容词 + 可数名词单数!exciting以元音音素开头,因此填入不定冠词an。
10. 此处语境表达“直到我参加这个赛事,我才知道我能跑这么快”,符合not...until/till的固定结构,也可以填before表示“在参加赛事之前我并不知道自己能跑这么快”,因此until/till/before都符合要求。
【答案】
1. organization 2. for 3. has raised 4. influential 5. was founded
6. them 7. makes 8. completed 9. an 10. until/till/before
【知识点】
词性转换,动词时态语态,固定搭配
【点评】
本题是初中英语典型的综合填空题型,考点覆盖全面,既考察了动词转名词、名词转形容词的常见词性变形,也涉及现在完成时、一般过去时被动语态等核心语法点,同时穿插固定搭配、感叹句、逻辑时间状语的考察,需要学生结合上下文语境和语法线索综合判断,能够有效检验学生的英语基础语法应用能力。
