50.times这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者学校的一个传统。临近高考时，较低年级的高一和高二所有学生聚在教学楼前，向站在楼上的高三学生鼓励加油。直到作者亲自参加这项活动，才明白了它的真正意思。【41题详解】考查比较级。句意：较低年级的高一和高二所有学生聚在教学楼前，向站在楼上的高三学生鼓励加油。根据fromSenior1toSenior2,可知这里指的是较低年级，用比较级，所以填lower。【42题详解】考查副词。句意：直到我亲自参加这项活动，我才明白了它的真正意思。该空修饰动词短语tookpartin，用副词，所以填personally。【43题详解】考查名词。句意：直到我亲自参加这项活动，我才明白了它的真正意思。该空作understood的宾语，用名词，所以填meaning。【44题详解】考查介词。句意：在那个特殊的晚上，所有的高三学生站在走廊里，看着下面低年级的学生。文中表示“在那个特殊的晚上”，用介词on。【45题详解】考查形容词。该空修饰名词cheers，应该用形容词，所以填Various。【46题详解】考查非谓语动词。see的逻辑主语是I，它们之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词作时间状语，填Seeing。【47题详解】考查冠词。句意：我想到了一个著名的格言。泛指“一个著名的格言”，famous的首字母发音是辅音，所以填不定冠词a。【48题详解】考查不定式。句意：很快轮到我，被以这种方式祝福，这也意味着我将和学校说再见。“轮到我”和“祝福”之间是被动关系，用不定式的被动式，所以填beblessed。【49题详解】考查非限制性定语从句。句意：很快轮到我，被以这种方式祝福，这也意味着我将和学校说再见。___9___alsomeansIwillhavetosaygoodbyetomyschool.作定语，修饰前面的句子，有逗号把主从句分开，所以___9___alsomeansIwillhavetosaygoodbyetomyschool.是一个非限制性定语从句，关系词在从句中作主语，指代整个主句内容，所以填which。【50题详解】考查固定结构。句意：尽管伤心，但是被这么多同学祝福，它将是我生命中最灿烂的时光之一。oneof+可数名词复数，表示“…之一”，该结构是固定结构，所以填times。20.ItseemsthateverytimeIhavecartroubleontheroad,nooneeverstopstosee76.________I’mOK.Butonetime,someonedidstoptohelpme.
