Answer 1

【答案】

【1】safe hands

【2】made attempt

【3】suspicious of

【4】attached to

【5】whenever trail

【6】NOW that

【7】instructing exact

【8】brokenwith

【9】Despite

【10】statusworth

【解析】本題考查重點(diǎn)單詞和短語，以及對(duì)語境的理解。

【1】考查短語in safe hands在可靠的人手里，也就是安然無恙。

【2】根據(jù)語境，make another attempt再次嘗試。本題是一般過去式。故用made，attempt。

【3】be suspicious of懷疑，對(duì)存在戒心。這里remain是系動(dòng)詞，故用suspicious，of。

【4】本題考查結(jié)構(gòu)attach to系，粘在…上，使相關(guān)，使?fàn)窟B依附。這里用過去分詞做后置定語，表示被動(dòng)關(guān)系。故用attached to。

【5】wherever無論哪里。這里用wherever引導(dǎo)狀語從句；a trail of一連串的。

【6】根據(jù)句意，空格處需要兩個(gè)單詞表示“既然”。故用Now that。

【7】instruct sb to do sth提示某人做某事，指示某人做某事，命令某人做某事。這里用現(xiàn)在分詞做伴隨狀語；exact準(zhǔn)確的，精密的，the exact number of…的準(zhǔn)確數(shù)量。故答案為instructing，exact。

【8】break打破，破壞。據(jù)據(jù)句意可知這里是被動(dòng)語態(tài)，用be動(dòng)詞加上過去分詞；第二空用withal的獨(dú)立結(jié)構(gòu)。故答案為broken，with。

【9】根據(jù)句意可知，空格處需要“盡管”，her great age前面用介詞despite。

【10】status地位， 身份，情形。his rise in status地位的提高。be well worth非常值得。故本題的兩個(gè)空格分別填 status，worth。
