Unit3 Travel journal
Ⅰ. 单句语法填空
1．(2016·天津卷，12改编)I'm going to take advantage __of__this tour to explore the history of the castle.
解析：句意：我要利用这次旅行来探索这个城堡的历史。使用短语take advantage of，意为“利用”。
2．—My dear， you are always __throwing__(throw) things about.Look， what a mess in the room！
—Sorry， Mom.
解析：考查时态。句意：——亲爱的，你总是把东西扔得到处都是。看，你的房间多乱啊！——对不起，妈妈。由句意可知，此处妈妈在埋怨孩子把东西到处乱扔，所以用进行时态，因为进行时态与always、forever、constantly等表示频率的词连用，表示说话者的埋怨、评判或者表扬等语气，意为“总是，老是”。
3．—Got your driving license？
—Yes.It is a week since I __passed__(pass) the driving test.
解析：考查时态。since所接从句用一般过去时态，主句用现在完成时态。
4．I __am_finishing__(finish) my work.Please wait for me for a while， and then let's go home together.
解析：考查现在进行时表将来。根据句子后半部分“请等我一会，咱们一起回家”可知工作马上要完成了，所以此处用现在进行时表示将来。
5．In May， as __scheduled__(schedule)， the product was launched， apparently with great success.
解析：考查省略句。句意：今年五月，这个产品按计划推出，显然十分成功。把从句补全后应为：as the product was scheduled。
6．The reports went missing in 2012 and nobody __has_seen__(see) them since.
解析：本题考查动词时态。句意：这报告在2012年遗失了，自那之后没人看见过。由第二个分句的关键词since可知，此处要用现在完成时态。
7．Parents should have a proper attitude __to/toward(s)__ boys who have suffered so much from an addiction __to__ computer games.
解析：attitude to/toward(s) sb./sth.“对某人或某事的态度，看法”；addiction to sth.“沉溺于……”。
8．According to the news， there will not be as many entertainment programs __as__ usual on television.
解析：句意：根据新闻，在电视上将不会像往常那样有那么多的娱乐节目了。as usual“像往常”，符合句意。
9．She couldn't wait __to_go__(go) home after such a long and tiring journey.
解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：经过这么漫长又令人疲倦的旅行之后，她迫不及待地想回家。couldn't wait to do sth.“迫不及待做某事”为固定搭配。
10．It being Sunday， rather than __stay__(stay) at home， I preferred __to_travel__(travel)．
解析：prefer to do rather than do...“宁愿而不愿……”。句意：因为今天是周日，我宁愿去旅行而不愿待在家里。
11．(2015·陕西，20改编)I believe you will have a wonderful time here __once__you get to know everyone else.
解析：once“一旦”，引导条件状语从句。句意：你一旦认识了这儿的任何别的人，我相信你会在这儿玩得很愉快。
12．__Once__you start eating in a healthier way， weight control will become much easier.
解析：本题考查状语从句引导词的选择。句意：一旦你开始用一种更健康的方式吃，体重控制将会变得容易得多。once“一旦，一经”，引导时间状语从句。根据句中的关键词语in a healthier way(用一种更健康的方式)和weight control will become much easier(体重控制将会变得容易得多)可知应用once来引导时间状语从句。
13．—Hi， let's go skating.
—Sorry， I'm busy right now.I __am_filling__(fill) in an application form for a new job.
解析：考查动词时态。根据时间状语right now的提示可知，空格处应为正在发生的动作，故用进行时。句意：——嗨，我们去滑冰吧。——抱歉，我现在很忙。我正在填一份新工作的申请表。
14．I have heard a lot of good things about you __since__ I came back from abroad.
解析：本题考查状语从句。句意：自从我从国外回来，我已经听说了很多关于你的好事了。由主句时态用了现在完成时，可知时间是“自从过去时间以来”，故选since自从……以来。
15．This machine is very easy __to_operate__(operate)．Anybody can learn to use it in a few minutes.
解析：本题考查动词不定式。句意：这台机器很容易操作，任何人在几分钟之内都能学会使用它。在“be＋性质形容词＋不定式”结构中，应用不定式的主动形式表达被动意义。常见的此类形容词有easy， hard， difficult， interesting， heavy，pleasant， comfortable， safe， dangerous， impossible等，该类形容词说明的是不定式的性质。

Ⅴ. 教材原句
1．She give me a __determined__ (determine) look-the kind that said she would not change __her__mind.
解析：第一空考查词形转换，此处填形容词修饰look；第二空考查固定短语“change one's mind”。

解析：考查时态。宾语从句中时态与主句应保持一致，但此处为客观真理，故用一般现在时。

解析：考查固定搭配“be fond of”意为“喜欢，喜爱”。

解析：根据空前的“became clearer”可知答案。
10．We will reach Dali in Yunnan province soon， __where__ our cousins Dao Wei and Yu Hang will join us.
