Fly a Kite

Learning how to fly a kite is simple, and flying kites can be a fun form of exercise.

Of course, the first thing you need is a kite and a ball of string(线). 　1　 Then wait for a windy day. 

When the perfect day arrives, find an open space, such as a field. 　2　 

Before flying your kite, find out which way the wind is blowing.　3　 To begin flying your kite, stand with your back to the wind and hold the kite up so the wind can catch it. If the day is not very windy, you may need to get your kite started by running. 

　4　 At the same time, walk backwards a few steps to keep the string tight(拉紧的). Now that your kite is up in the air, you can decide how long to fly it and how high you want it to go. 

　5　 Slowly wind(缠绕) the string. Try not to pull your kite too fast or it may crash(坠落). 

Flying a kite is a great way to spend a windy afternoon. If you follow these steps carefully, you will have something more fun to do than sitting inside and watching TV. So on the next windy day, get up off the sofa, and go to fly a kite!

A.You can do this by throwing grass into the air.

B.Finally, you will need to bring your kite down.

C.You can buy your kite and string at a toy shop.

D.Follow the instructions to put your kite together.

E.Nothing beats seeing a kite sail high into the clouds.

F.Don't fly your kite near trees because it can get caught.

G.Once the wind catches your kite, let out more string so it can fly higher.

答案　

[语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章简单介绍了放风筝的几个步骤。

1.C　本空承接前一句“Of course, the first thing you need is a kite and a ball of string(线).”,说明了获得风筝和线的一种途径。

2.F　F项说明选择放风筝的场所时的注意事项,与本空前一句内容相关。

3.A　A项中的do this指本空前一句中的“find out which way the wind is blowing”,说明判断风向的一种方法。

5.B　B项中的“bring your kite down”与下文“wind(缠绕) the string”以及“pull your kite”意义一致。

答案　

1.doing　be busy doing sth.忙着做某事。

2.had given　从句的动作发生在主句动作noticed之前,故用过去完成时。

3.of/from/in　此处可理解为“死于一场车祸”,die of/from...死于……。也可理解为“在一场车祸中死亡”,in a car accident在一场车祸中。故填of或from或in。

4.extremely　副词修饰形容词sad。

5.to escape　it is/was difficult for sb. to do sth.某人做某事有困难。

6.my　名词前应用形容词性物主代词。

7.But　作者希望再次收到大儿子送给她的母亲节礼物,但是大儿子已经去世了,她知道自己的愿望不可能实现。空格处表示转折,且后面没有逗号,故填But。

8.thought　此处用名词作主语,thought表示“想法”。

9.a　此处表示一枝玫瑰花,rose以辅音音素开头,故填不定冠词a。

10.was shocked　主语是I, 表示“我被震惊了”,故填was shocked。
