(1)考查形容词。
根据后文的had finished过去完成时,可判断事情发生在过去之前,a few months earlier“几个月之前”,可以和过去完成时连用,故填earlier。
(2)考查时态。
根系句子可知此处是从句谓语动词,此处考查固定句型had done…when(从句用一般过去时)刚做完某事突然就……,故填noticed。
(3)考查非谓语动词。
分析句子可知此处是非谓语动词作状语,逻辑主语the woman和explain(解释)之间是主动关系,应用现在分词,故填explaining。
(4)考查时态。
分析句子可知此处是定语从句谓语动词,根据下文的over the years(在过去几年里)判断该句为现在完成时,主语为I,故填have made。
(5)考查冠词。
age的可数名词,此处是泛指,应用不定冠词,又actual是元音音素开头,故填an。
(6)考查形容词。
此处应填形容词作为feel的表语,youth的形容词是young和youthful,故填young/youthful。
(7)考查名词。
此处应填名词作为finding的宾语,connect的名词形式connection为可数名词,some可以理解为“一些/某个”,故此处可以用名词单数形式,也可用复数形式,故填connection/connections。
(8)考查介词。
句意:拥有健康生活方式和好的遗传基因的人倾向于在这些评价中获得高分。
分析句子可知此处应填介词,再结合句意表示“有”的介词是with,故填with。
(9)考查非谓语动词。
tend to do sth固定短语,“倾向于做某事”,故填to score。
(10)考查定语从句。
分析句子可知,此处是非限定性定语从句的关系词,先行词one在从句中充当主语,应用关系代词which引导,故填which。
【点评】本题考点涉及形容词,时态,非谓语动词,冠词,介词,名词,定语从句以及多个知识点的考查,是一篇健康类阅读,要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,并结合相关语法知识,进行分析推理,从而写出正确的单词形式。
