blame...for...
incapacity over the years

A few months __1__ (early), Stephanie Heller, had finished her workout in the gym when she __2__ (notice) a woman in the parking lot struggling to bend down. Ms. Heller offered to help her. The woman blamed old age for her incapacity, __3__ (explain) that she was 70. But Ms. Heller was 71. “This woman felt every bit her age.” she recalled. “I don’t let age stop me. I need a good mood, really. I love singing and dancing with all the young friends I __4__ (make) over the years. I’m only as old as I feel.”

Each of us has __5__ actual age, the number we celebrate on birthdays. But some 50-, 60-and 70-year-olds look and feel __6__ (youth), while others do not. Scientists measure these differences by looking at age-related things like skin elasticity, blood pressure and so on, finding some __7__ (connect) among them. People __8__ a healthy lifestyle and a fortunate genetic inheritance (继承) tend __9__ (score) “younger” on these assessments.

When scientists ask, “How old do you feel, most of the time?” the answer can reflect the state of people’s physical and mental health. The age given is a virtual one, __10__ is called “subjective age.”

先是 made, 然后是非谓语, 主动, to do不通顺, 用doing
mading, 很不对劲, 这个词很奇怪, 然后我下意识想到了 having, 有没有可能是考完成时态呢?
这句话是现在说的, 所以用现在完成时 have done: have made, 但是它得是非谓语, 要变成doing, 那就

having made ❌
have made ✅

其实后面句子是个定语从句, 所以一个完整的句子自然需要谓语动词, 错因是不知道后面是定语从句
本题考查定语从句中的时态选择而非非谓语动词

一开始以为是考查比较等级

who have (博一把) ❌ 虽然理解对了, 但是不填这个

虽然语法正确,但此空需要的是介词短语而非定语从句。

读着读着感觉是 tend to do

to score

10 ✅

感觉考查非限制性定语从句, 表物用which不用that, 所以

Leaving your mobile phone at home when you go shopping could prevent mindless overspending, a new study suggests. Research from the University of Bath discovered that when people are distracted by their mobiles during a trip to the supermarket their shopping bills __1__ rise by an average of 41 percent. Attention-weakening devices also encourage shoppers to wander along more shelves, __2__ they come across more products.

In one study, 294 people aged between 18 and 73 at four Swedish supermarkets wore eye-tracking glasses throughout a shopping trip to measure where they went and __3__ they looked at. Their receipts were then used __4__ (assess) their spending. Those using a mobile phone spent on average £37.37 compared to an average of £23.91 for those who did not.

A second study of 117 shoppers found those with mobile phones spent longer in the store, __5__ (give) more attention to shelves. They also spent an average of £36. This study found shoppers using a mobile phone spent on average £36.16 on 20.85 items, compared to £25.59 on 13.22 products.

Dr. Carl-Philip Ahlbom, of the University of Bath’s School of Management said: “Business owners have tended to worry that mobiles distract shoppers from spending money, __6__ we were amazed to find completely the reverse effect.” The findings were very clear — the more time you spend on your phone, the more money you’ll part __7__.

“So if you’re trying to budget, __8__ (leave) your phone in your pocket. It’s not the phone __9__ that causes more purchases, but its impact on our focus.” Researchers believe people spend more because using a phone distracts people from their __10__ (plan) lists.

1 ❌

on??? will???

will ❌
can/may/might ✅
考查情态动词。根据句意可知,空格处表达“可能”,空格后rise为动词原形,故填can/may/might,三者都有“可能”的意思,且后接动词原形。

句意:巴斯大学的研究发现,当人们在逛超市时被手机分心,他们的购物账单会平均增加41%。

2 ❌

两边都是完整的句子, 逗号不能连接两个句子, 所以空格填连词

and ❌
where ✅
考查关系副词。分析句子可知,空格处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为 shelves,在从句中作地点状语,故填 where。

句意:削弱注意力的设备也促使购物者逛更多的货架,在那里他们能看到更多的产品。

3 ✅

what

4 ❌

被用来评估他们的消费, 但是听说不定式后是用的动词原形? 那要用to assess??, 但是看到前面的were, 还是填:

to assessed ❌
to assess ✅

be used to do 固定搭配: "被用来做某事", 但是根据非谓语也可以推断出来

带手机的消费了更多

5 ✅

考察非谓语, spent是谓语

giving

6 ✅

but

7 💥💥WTF??? ❌

"你在你的手机上花费的时间越多, 你花的钱也就越多", 我知道意思, 但是这个part能填啥??? 乱填之
away ❌
with ✅ 考查介词。固定搭配 part with“交出”。
句意:你花在手机上的时间越多,你花的钱就越多。

8 ❌

谓语: budget, 所以要填非谓语

leaving ❌
leave ✅
考查祈使句。根据句意可知,句子表达“建议做某事”,故用祈使句,祈使句的肯定句结构之一为“行为动词原形+其它成分”,故填 leave。

句意:所以,如果你想节省开支,就把手机放在口袋里。

主句从句搞反了, 前后都是完整的句子, 所以leave不算非谓语

9 ❌

我觉得什么都不填最好
itself ✅
考查反身代词。分析句子可知空格处强调的是 the phone 本身,故填 itself。

句意:并不是手机本身带来了更多的购买,而是它对我们注意力的影响。

10 ❌

填形容词?? plan能填什么形容词...不知道, 乱填一个

plans
还是填planning吧 ❌ (哈哈哈)

planned ✅
考查非谓语。分析句子可知,plan 与 lists 是被动关系,故填 planned,过去分词作定语修饰名词 lists,意为“计划清单”。

句意:研究人员认为,人们花费更多是因为使用手机分散了人们对计划清单的注意力。

考点: 介词 + 关系代词

official ❌
officially ✅

为什么不可以填official呢? 我觉得official也可以啊

​误以为形容词可以修饰分词​:
形容词(如 official)只能直接修饰名词(如 festival),不能修饰动词或分词。 若要修饰分词(如 established),必须用副词(officially)。

10 ✅

谓语 have continued, 考查非谓语
marking (holy sh*t 💥💥💥💥💥 最炸裂的一集)

而且介词for后面也必须接动名词

I really miss the old days when I __4__ (chat) with some passengers on the train. Now things are different.

Everyone just concentrates __5__ their smart-phones. When talking with them, __6__ seems that you are disturbing their playing smart-phones.
