【导语】

这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲的是KieronGraham通过DNA测试找到他的同胞哥哥的故事。

1.

考查非谓语动词。句意：尽管Kienm花了数年时间考虑Vincent,但他始终没能找到他。结

合句意及空前的spentyears可知应填动名词形式thinking,spendtimedoing意为“花费时间

做某事”，固定搭配，用动名词作宾语。故填thinking。

2.

考查定语从句。句意：2017年12月，情况发生了变化，Kieron的养父母把血统DNA测试

作为圣诞礼物送给了他们的四个养子。此处为定语从句，先行词为December2017,先行词

在从句中作时间状语，应用关系副词when。故填when。

3.

考查动词时态。句意：结果出来后，他惊讶地发现自己的一些DNA与参加过检测的亲戚相

匹配。空处是who定语从句的谓语动词，结合句意定语从句的动作发生在主句一般过去时

的动作之前，应用过去完成时。故填hadtaken。

4.

考查动词时态和语态。句意：大多数都是远亲关系，但有一个匹配非常强大，以至于被贴上

了“近亲59”的标签。分析句子可知，空处是that引导的状语从句的谓语动词，根据语境，

动作发生在过去且从句主语it与label之间为被动关系，应用一般过去时的被动语态。故填

labeledo

答案第1页，共18页

5.

考查动词不定式。句意：“这听起来很疯狂……但你好像是我哥哥，"Kieron在即时通讯软件

上写道。结合句意及空前的youseem可知应用不定式的形式，作宾语，sb.seemtodosth.意

lost“失去的"，作定语，修饰名词time。故填lost。

8.

考查名词性从句。句意：“我在想我该说些什么。”结合句意及空前的wondering可知此处为

9.

考查反身代词。句意：当他在商店外面等着的时候，他听到有人叫他的名字，他突然发现自

己拥抱了他一生都在思念的哥哥。结合句意及空前的hesuddenlyfound可知此处应填反身代

【导语】

本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了现今大多数人，无论老人还是年轻人都感到孤独。

11.

考查动词。句意：年轻人和老年人都受到影响，不过65岁以上的人最不孤独。根据前文

""UniversityfoundoneinfourAustraliansfeellonelywithmanyreportinganxietyabout

socialisingand30percentsayingtheydidn'tfeelpartofagroupoffriends.”可知I,止匕处表达“年

轻人和老年人都受到影响”之意，所以affect"影响”符合题意，本句主语是Bothyoungandold

people,两者间是被动关系，应该用被动语态，空前已有be动词，所以空处应填过去分词

形式。故填A项。

12.

考查名词。句意：一位女士告诉我，她没有任何访客；她唯一与人接触的时间是在每周的网

络研讨会上。根据前文“Oneladytoldmeshedoesn't
