    答案解析:
    1. E 空格處需填一形容詞,即從E、J、L、M中選擇。過去分詞一般用于主語是人的句子,排除J;結(jié)合常理,忘性大常常令人懊惱,故E最符合文章。
    2. I 根據(jù)定語從句謂語see可知,主語要么是人要么是眼鏡,由下句the use的提示,故選I。
    3. A 該空需填入一個動詞,即從備選項A、H中選擇,有allow sb. to do sth.的結(jié)構(gòu),且語義符合文意,故選A。
    4. F 由上文的label items可推知F最符合文意。
    5. C 該空需填入一個形容詞,由下文的fill in可推知C(空白的)最符合文意。
    6. D 由該句中的相關(guān)信息詞mechanics(機械師)和identify machine parts可推知D最符合文意。
    7. J 該空需填入一個形容詞修飾名詞device(設(shè)備),由常識可知工廠里的設(shè)備通常都很復雜,正因為復雜,不容易記住,才有必要使用這種新型眼鏡,故J最符合文意。
    8. B 該句主句的基本句子結(jié)構(gòu)是A car mechanic could find where a part is,介詞for和應(yīng)填的詞在句中作插入萬分,結(jié)合選項,B最符合文意。
    9. H 該空應(yīng)填入動詞原形,從詞義上能排出A,H符合文意。
    10. G 分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,該空應(yīng)填入一個非謂語動詞,結(jié)合句意"在其他情況下,人們可以戴著這種眼鏡隨團旅游,________名勝景點…"可知,G(指示)最符合文意。
