本题为灾害防范主题的记叙文短文填空,需结合语境、固定搭配及语法知识解题。解题思路:先通读全文把握大意(暴风雨来临前后的场景),再逐个分析每个空的句子结构、上下文提示、固定搭配等,确定符合语境的单词,注意词性和形式变化。
【解析】
1. 由“大风使天空变黑”可知,此处指“乌云”,cloud用复数形式clouds;
2. 固定搭配on one's way表示“即将到来”,故填way;
3. 固定搭配be busy with sth表示“忙于做某事”,故填busy;
4. 固定搭配in order to表示“为了”,故填order;
5. 此处指“雨下得大”,begin to后接动词原形fall;
6. 修饰storm,结合语境指“严重的/强烈的”,填serious或strong均可;
7. 前半句“上床睡觉”和后半句“直到风停才睡着”是转折关系,填but;
