25、饰,故应用Europe的形容词形式European。in some European countries意为在一些欧洲国家。6.an【解题思路】 考查冠词。短语take sth. as an example意为以为例,相当于take sth. for example。7.to avoid【解题思路】考查动词不定式。根据语境可知,空处在句中作目的状语,故应用不定式。8.spending【解题思路】考查非谓语动词。此处是with+宾语+宾补结构,由于people与spend之间为逻辑上的主谓关系,故应用动词-ing形式作宾补。9.beliefs【解题思路】考查名词复数。belief作信仰讲时是可数
26、名词,与wishes, faiths和attitudes并列,故应用belief的复数形式beliefs。10.that/which【解题思路】 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,指代先行词occasions,在定语从句中作主语,故应用关系代词that/which。【知识拓展】在英语中以-f或-fe结尾的名词变复数时常将-f或-fe去掉,同时后接 -ves,例如knife的复数形式为knives;但也有直接加 -s的情况,例如roof, chief, proof等。一、完形填空主题语境:人与自我语篇类型:记叙文When I became a junior, I decided
