解析

试题分析：本文介绍了著名建筑师山崎实。他于1912年出生在美国西雅图，他的父母来自日本。山崎实不同于其他建筑师，他的建筑给人一种和平和幸福的感觉。他曾经为好几家公司工作，当他建立了自己的公司，他开始获得成功。山崎实对他的建筑有很强大的观点，即使失去工作，他也拒绝改变他的建筑的设计。在1986年，他去世。但是人们将长久地欣赏他的设计和建筑。
小题1:根据He was born in 1912 in Seattle．Washington．可知第一段介绍了山崎实出生的时间和地点，故此处为when, where
小题2:根据His buildings give people a feeling of peace and happiness．可知他的建筑给人一种和平和幸福的感觉，也就是使人感到和平和幸福。故此处为peaceful, happy
小题3:根据Yamasaki had strong opinions about his buildings．和He refused to change the design of his buildings，even if he lost a job．可知山崎实对他的建筑有很强大的观点，即使失去工作，他也拒绝改变他的建筑的设计。故此处为He refused to change the design of his buildings, even if he lost a job.
小题4:got up 起床；started to draw the building开始画大楼；that was in his dream and he still remembered“在他梦里的，他仍记得的”这是一个定语从句修饰先行词the building.故此句的意思为：他起床开始画那栋梦到的、他仍记得的大楼。
小题5:根据People will enjoy the design and beauty of his buildings for a very longtime． 可知人们将长久地欣赏他的设计和他的建筑，因此推测他以他的设计和建筑而出名。故此处为 He is famous for his design and buildings.
