(3)the

(4)brought

(5)what

(6)Opening

(7)marriage

(8)if/when

(10)them

解析

(1)考查介词。固定搭配:keepsth from sb瞒着某人。句意:他们分享一切,谈论一切,彼此没有秘密。

(2)考查定语从句。先行词为abox,故用关系代词which或that都可以。句意:除了那位妇女的一个抽屉里有个盒子,她警告她的丈夫不要打开或问她。

(3)考查冠词。用定冠词the特指那个妇女。

(4)考查动词的时态。由并列连词and可知,此处应用bring的过去式brought作took的并列谓语。

(5)考查宾语从句。此处用what引导宾语从句。句意:她认为是时候让他知道盒子里面是什么东西。

(6)考查非谓语动词。open和逻辑主语he是主动关系,此处用现在分词作伴随状语。

(7)考查词性转换。前有形容词happy修饰,此处应用marry的名词形式marriage,happymarriage:幸福的婚姻。

(8)考查连词。用if引导条件状语从句或用when引导时间状语从句。句意:如果/当我生你的气时,我应该保持冷静然后做一个垫子。

(9)考查动词。用动词的过去分词作形容词表示the man的感受,moved:受感动的。

(10)考查代词。用them代替the mats。
