Answer 1

答案：D;A;C;A;B;D;C;A;A;A
解析：

剖析：1．該句為過去進行時，助動詞were和現在分詞構成謂語，只有C、D兩個選項與該句的時態形式相符．talk to sb表示“對某人說話”，“跟某人交談”的意思；talk about sb or sth意為“談論某人或某事”．全文主要談論教育孩子的方法． 　　2．此處的人稱代詞，應與主語的人稱和數相一致．句子主語parents為第三人稱復數． 　　3．由空白后的“a big，strong tree and a thin，young one”可作出正確判斷，表示在二者之間，介詞須用between． 　　4．下文“and the young tree bent over to one side”已作出提示，該空白處應填形容詞young．這里的“a thin，young one”和下文中的“the young tree”指的是同一棵小樹．在第二次提到上文出現過的名詞時，屬于特指，應用定冠詞the． 　　5．生活常識告訴我們，生長彎曲的小樹，扶直后用繩子綁在另一棵樹上，當它還沒有長直時，解開繩子，小樹就會自然地彎向一邊．正確選項為A．表示二者中的“另一個”用the other，不定數目中的“另一個”用another，均與句意不符，不能選用． 　　6．我們對短文第一段中“The young man untied it, and the young tree bent over to one side.”及第二段中老人說的話“Now tie it again”，“But first pull the line tight…”進行綜合分析，可以推斷出該空白處應填straight，這表明了老人讓把系小樹的繩子拉緊的目的在于讓小樹長直．這個答案還可以從短文第二段中“If they are not yet able to stand alone, you must tie the line tight again.”一句判斷出來． 　　7．do�？捎脕泶�替上文出現過的謂語動詞或整個動詞詞組．根據語境，此處空白應填did，和后面的指示代詞this一起代替前面直接引語中的“tie it again”和“pull the line tight”． 　　8．在四個選項中，只有動詞不定式to see能作目的狀語，與句意相符． 　　9．短文中用比喻的方法，說明了培養孩子的獨立生活能力，和幫助彎曲的小樹長直一樣，我們根據條件狀語從句中“If they are not yet able to stand alone”可以判斷出此處空白應填副詞again，表示重復“tie the line tight”這個動作． 　　10．所給四個選項的名詞，都可以作短語動詞take away的賓語，填入空白處語法都正確．但是我們根據前一句“If they are not yet able to stand alone, you must tie the line tight again.”就很容易判斷出正確答案．
