Operation Smile was started by a doctor and his wife, Bill Magee and Kathleen Magee. In 1982,
together

carry

decided
4 to start a charity so that they could help these children. They
called
5 it Operation Smile.
Over the years, O

Now the ch
arity works in more than 30 countries and has
about
8 6,000 medical volunteers. It
provides

local doctors and nurses so that they can continue to hel

【分析】
做这类首字母提示的短文填空题,首先要先通读全文,理清文章核心内容:本文介绍了公益组织“微笑行动”的创立背景、发展历程和相关公益贡献,整体时态以一般过去时和一般现在时为主。接下来逐个空格结合上下文语义、固定搭配、首字母提示推导答案,同时要注意校验词性、时态、单复数、语态等语法细节,确保填入的单词既符合语义逻辑也符合语法规则。比如看到第3空后面的on with the work,立刻联想对应的固定搭配carry on with表示“继续开展”,再结合首字母c就能快速锁定词汇,再校验情态动词could后接动词原形的规则即可。
【解析】
1. 后文提到和志愿者一同前往菲律宾,固定搭配together with表示“和……一起”,首字母t,填together。
2. 前文提到这些孩子有唇部缺陷,可推断吃喝对他们来说非常困难,首字母d,填形容词difficult。
3. 固定搭配carry on with sth. 表示“继续做某事”,情态动词could后接动词原形,首字母c,填carry。
4. 语境表示他们没有足够资金,之后决定创办一家慈善机构,描述过去发生的动作用一般过去时,decide的过去式为decided,首字母d,填decided。
5. 语境表示他们将这个慈善组织命名为“微笑行动”,描述过去的动作用一般过去时,call的过去式为called,首字母c,填called。
6. 语境表示这些年微笑行动因为它的工作赢得了很多奖项,many后接可数名词复数,prize的复数形式为prizes,首字母p,填prizes。
7. 固定搭配operate on sb. 表示“给某人做手术”,此处主语children和operate是被动关系,用被动语态结构be+过去分词,operate的过去分词为operated,首字母o,填operated。
8. 语境表示该慈善机构拥有大约6000名医疗志愿者,介词about表示“大约”,首字母a,填about。
9. 固定搭配provide sth. for sb. 表示“为某人提供某物”,主语it是第三人称单数,句子描述常规动作用一般现在时,谓语动词用三单形式provides,首字母p,填provides。
10. 语境表示微笑行动帮助培训当地的医生和护士,help后接动词原形,train表示“培训、训练”,首字母t,填train。
【答案】
1. together 2. difficult 3. carry 4. decided 5. called
6. prizes 7. operated 8. about 9. provides 10. train

【点评】
本题属于记叙文体的首字母填空题,围绕公益组织“微笑行动”的相关内容设空,所有考查词汇都是初中阶段核心常用词汇,重点考察学生结合上下文语境推导语义、灵活运用固定搭配的能力,易错点集中在动词过去式、被动语态过去分词、名词复数的形式变化上,学生解题时要注意校验语法形式,避免只写出单词原形忽略形式变化丢分。
