Young men, you three are all ____小题2:____(usual) strong and resourceful, so I’d like you to strive to climb that high mountain we have always been worshipping _____小题3:_____ a sacred place.

Three days later, the first young man returned smartly dressed and said ___小题4:____(smile),
“Lord, I’ve been to the mountaintop____小题5:____I saw flowers of all sorts, spring water and singing birds. That’s a real nice place.”

A week later, the second young man also returned. “Lord, I’ve been to the mountaintop ___小题7:___ a forest of tall pine trees and vultures circling in the air. That’s a really nice place.”
“What a pity!” said the chief. “Son, you’ve been halfway up the mountain rather than to the summit. Now you can leave .”

“Lord, I succeeded in reaching the summit. There was nothing there but the highland wind and the blue sky ___小题8:___(hang) over the land.”
“So you saw nothing at all? Not even ___小题9:___butterfly?”
“No, Lord, nothing. All you can see is yourself. You just feel how insignificant you are in this infinite universe ___小题10:__ standing at the top!”

解析

试题分析：文章介绍一个酋长快死了。他让三个年轻人爬到他们当成圣地崇拜的高山上，第一个人只到达山脚，第二个人只到了山坡，第三个人到达了山顶，感受到自己的渺小。但这真是酋长想看见的。这个年轻人正是他要找的下个酋长。
小题1:考查时态：由句子的soon可知酋长说自己快死了。用一般将来时：am leaving/will leave
小题2:考查副词：修饰形容词strong and resourceful, 应该用副词unusually，句意：你们三个通常是很强壮的并富于机智。
小题3:考查介词：as是“做为”，酋长让三个年轻人爬到他们当成圣地崇拜的高山上。
小题4:修饰动词said用副词：smilingly，第一个人穿着漂亮，面带微笑说。
小题5:考查定语从句，先行词是mountaintop，定语从句中缺少地点状语：where。
小题6:考查not…but…结构，这不是山顶而是山脚
小题7:考查介词：with 符合结构做定语，第二个人看见有一排松树的山顶。
小题8:考查现在分词做定语：hanging over the land是定语修饰sky，第三个人到了山顶，看见的是高地和悬挂在头顶的天空。
小题9:考查冠词：这里泛指“一个蝴蝶“，用a
小题10:考查连词：while 当…时候，在山顶的时候，你会觉得自己是多么渺小。
