Shawn’s Saturday

“Hey, Dad! ” Shawn shouted, “I’m going to play basketball with Peter!”

Shawn’s dad came into the kitchen, “Have you finished ___61___ (clean) the garage?”

Shawn tried to decide whether to admit the ___62___ (true). His dad would notice the garage hadn’t been cleaned, ___63___ Shawn wanted to play basketball.

Shawn’s dad understood his silence. “You haven’t even started, have you? You promised you’d take care of ___64___ first ting this morning.”

Shawn complained, “Why do I have to clean the garage, anyway?” “Because you said you would, and you need to follow through with ___65___ you say.” “But Dad,” Shawn protested, “I promised Pete.” Soon, his dad’s face lit ___66___. “Let’s go out to the garage for a minute.”

___67___ (puzzle), Shawn followed his father into the garage. His dad pointed to the dull, gray cement walls. “What if you ask Pete to come over here? If you and Pete clean up thoroughly, then you can paint ___68___ (picture) on those two walls.”

“What about playing basketball? Pete ___69___ (wait) for me.”

His dad said thoughtfully, “If Pete stays over tonight, then I will drive you two over to paly basketball after supper.”

“Can we order pizza?” “___70___ (absolute)!” his dad grinned. Shawn raced back into the kitchen to call Pete.

语法填空答案解析：

61.cleaning finish后加动词时应该是doing形式，故填cleaning。

62.truth 考察单词变形。the后面应该加名词形式，故填truth。

63.but 考察虚词。根据无提示词的做题规律，此处可以排除冠词，代词，介词，故只能填连词。而上下文出现了转折，故此处填but。

64.it 考察代词。take care of后缺宾语，故只能用代词it 指代前文出现过的事物。

65.what 考察名词性从句中的宾语从句。填what，代表所说的内容。

66.up 考察介词。考察短语light up，本意是“容光焕发”，本文段中应理解为Shawn’s dad心中有另外的想法，所以“脸色一变”。

67.Puzzled考察到非谓语的知识，答案是Puzzled，作状语，表示人“感到迷惑的”。另外尤其注意这个空应该首字母大写。

68.pictures 考察名词的单复数。此处应填名词，再根据文意，picture不只有一副，故填复数形式。

69.is waiting 这道题考察时态，当事人说话的当下，应该用现在进行时，表示peter此刻正在等“我”。

70.absolutely考察副词的用法，表示“肯定地，一定地”。
