25、lets except upon the advice of a physician,for they usually contain drugs that will injure the heart. 答案及剖析:1.to rest考查非谓语动词。动词不定式作定语,意为:有一个休息的时间。2.usually考查副词。修饰动词get用副词形式。3.them考查代词。此处需用宾格形式作give的宾语。4.or考查并列连词。not well和tired out都属于同一意义范畴,故用or,表示选择:要么身体不好要么很疲劳。5.at考查介词。at night在晚上,是固定短语。6.whic
26、h考查关系词。分析句子成分可知,此处缺少一个非限制性定语从句的关系词,先行词为A hot foot bath,关系词在从句中作主语,故用which。7.beneficial考查形容词。分析句子可知,此处所填的词是说明主语A hot foot bath的情况,故用形容词作表语。8.taken考查非谓语动词。分析句子成分可知,此空应填非谓语动词,而且逻辑主语milk or cocoa和take(喝)构成被动关系,故用过去分词作定语。9.produces考查动词时态。主语是动词-ing短语,整篇文章使用的是一般现在时态,且sometimes是一般现在时的标志,故用一般现在时态。10.sleeping

31、ple to see . you want to join in,you can send your photos to intlphotoshow.Hope to hear you soon.Sincerely,Li Hua剖析:International的发音是以元音音素开头,故用不定冠词an。此句是定语从句,介词之后,指代的是物,故用which。修饰人,应该用interested。上下文之间是并列关系,故用and。本句中有the last time,故用一般过去时。visit是及物动词,故后面直接跟宾语, to 是多余的。 修饰动词应该用副词。代指前面的photos,故用复数them。上下文是条件关系,意为“如果你想加入的话” 。收到某人的来信,应用短语hear from。
