本文为记叙文。约翰·斯诺是维多利亚女王的私人医生。然而，他以战胜“霍乱”而闻名。19世纪中叶，伦敦发生了一系列霍乱疫情。由于这种致命的疾病，每次爆发都有成千上万的人死亡。约翰决心帮助他们。后来，约翰发现了霍乱是由被污染了的水造成的。为了防止这种情况再次发生，约翰·斯诺建议所有水源都要经过检查。最后，霍乱被消灭了。

【36题详解】

考查介词。句意：约翰·斯诺是伦敦的一位非常著名的医生，他作为维多利亚女王的私人医生来照顾她。as“作为”。故填as。

【37题详解】

考查过去分词。此处意为“被暴露在这种致命的疾病中”，设空处与主语构成逻辑动宾关系，应使用过去分词。故填exposed。

【38题详解】

考查形容词。句意：每次爆发都有成千上万惊恐万分的人死亡。terrified“感到恐惧的，受惊吓的”，修饰人。故填terrified。

【39题详解】

考查语态。句意：他认为这种疾病是通过食物被人的身体吸收的，但是他需要证据来证明他的观点。根据语境可知，此处应使用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was absorbed。

【40题详解】

考查冠词。此处泛指“一次霍乱爆发”，应使用不定冠词，又因outbreak是以元音音素开头，应使用不定冠词an。故填an。

【41题详解】

考查定语从句。此处为定语从句，先行词是the exact places，关系词在从句中作地点状语，应使用where引导。故填where。

【42题详解】

考查副词。此处修饰形容词severe，应使用副词形式。故填extremely。 【43题详解】

考查不定式。固定搭配：be to blame“该受责备，应承担责任”。故填to blame。 【44题详解】

考查名词。with certainty“确定无疑地”，with是介词，后面用名词，故填certainty。 【45题详解】

考查虚拟语气。句意：为了防止这种情况再次发生，约翰·斯诺建议所有水源都要经过检查。suggest“建议”后的宾语从句要用虚拟语气（should）do，should可以省略，根据句意，此处应使用被动语态。故填be examined。

47.阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

Reuben couldn't ask his father for the money. Everything his father made through fishing went to his mother, Dora. Slim and beautiful, she was the center of the home, the glue that held it together. The housework was never-ending, and she struggled to feed and clothe their five children but she was happy as her family and their well-being were all she cared about. Nevertheless, he opened the shop's weathered(风化的) door and went inside. Standing proud and straight in his flour-sack（面粉袋改做的） shirt and washed-out trousers, he told the shopkeeper what he wanted, adding ,“But I don't have the money right now. Can you please hold it for me for some time？”

“I'll try,” the shopkeeper smiled. “People around here don't usually have that kind of money to spend on things. It should keep for a while.”

Reuben respectfully touched his worn cap and walked out. He would raise the money and not tell anybody, for he thought Mum would get surprised when she saw that brooch. On hearing the sound of hammering from a side street, Reuben suddenly had an idea that he could raise money by selling the used nail bags(装钉子的麻袋). People built their own homes in Bay Roberts, using
