50.the本文是一篇故事。由于电灯的出现，蜡烛市场需求突然下滑；一家蜡烛和肥皂工厂的工人无意中把充满气体的混合物充进了肥皂，生产出了能够漂浮的“IvorySoap”。【41题详解】考查时态语态。本文讲述过去发生的事情，所以使用一般过去时，且本句主语candlesandpiecesofsoap与动词produce构成被动关系，所以使用一般过去时的被动语态。故填wereproduced。【42题详解】考查名词。空格处在本句中做介词短语asaresultof的宾语，故用名词形式invention（发明）。句意：因为爱迪生的发明，蜡烛的市场突然下滑。故填invention。【43题详解】考查连词。句意：对Mr.Procter和Mr.Gamble来说，目前的情况好像没有希望了，但是一个事故挽救了他们的公司。上下文之间是转折关系，故填but。【44题详解】考查动词的固定用法。动词短语forgettodosth忘记要做某事；forgetdoing忘记做某事；句意：1879年一个健忘的工人去吃饭的时候忘记要把机器关掉。根据语境可知，应该使用forgettodosth。故填tostop。【45题详解】考查动名词。句意：没有把这些混合物扔掉，他把它充进了肥皂里。在英语中介词的后面通常接名词、代词或动名词做宾语，本句中要使用动名词做of的宾语。故填throwing。【46题详解】考查形容词比较级。因为肥皂里有气泡，所以这种新肥皂要比水还要轻。所以要使用比较级形式lighter。故填lighter。【47题详解】考查副词。句意：自然地，它能够漂浮起来。副词通常在句中做状语修饰形容词副词动词或整个句子。本句中naturally在句中做状语修饰整个句子。故填Naturally。【48题详解】考查固定短语。短语toone’ssurprise让某人惊讶的是，其中要使用所有格one’s修饰surprise。句意：让他们惊讶的是他们收到了很多顾客的来信要求购买这种肥皂。故填their。【49题详解】考查介词。动词短语receivesthfromsb收到来自某人的某物；句意：让他们惊讶的是他们收到了很多顾客的来信要求购买这种肥皂。故填from。【50题详解】考查定冠词。不定冠词a/an表示泛指，定冠词the表示特指；本句中定冠词the修饰soap，特指能够漂浮的肥皂。故填the。20.请用方框中单词或短语的正确形式完成句子，并将答案写在相应位置上。curious
