33、 few可知,此处应为名词 month的复数形式。4.for 考查介词。be enough for sth.为固定搭配,意为“对足够”。5.effective 考查形容词。此处用形容词 effective修饰名词 ways,意为“有效的方法”。6.really 考查副词。此处为副词 really修饰动词 read。7.sounds 考查动词的时态语态。根据上下文可知,此处应为一般现在时的主动语态,因主语 it为第三人称单数,故此处应填 sounds。8.reading 考查非谓语动词。此处为“while you are reading”的省略形式,动词 read与逻辑主语 you之间为主动关系,故用动词-ing 形式做状语。69.their 考查代词。此处为形容词性物主代词 their修饰名词 use。10.learned/learnt 考查非谓语动词。此处为非谓语动词做后置定语修饰名词 words,因两者为被动关系,故用过去分词 learned/learnt。
