一、根据句意填合适的名词
1．It was dark and he had already lost his ________ of direction.
答案 sense
解析 句意：天黑了，他早已失去了方向感。sense of direction“方向感”。
2．In the past few years Lucy has formed the habit of keeping a supply of candles in the house in case of power ________.
答案 failure
解析 句意：在过去的几年里，露西养成了在家里备些蜡烛以防停电的习惯。power常常和failure连用，指“停电”。
3．It is amazing that we have a perfect ________ of the city on top of the tower.
答案 view
解析 从后面的on top of the tower可知，这里指从塔顶上看到的优美的风景，故填view。 view强调从远处或者高处看到的风景。
4．Little John hardly got anything in ________ for his kind act, which made him unhappy.
答案 reward
解析 句意：小约翰对于自己的善行几乎没得到什么回报，因此他很不高兴。根据后面的for his kind act可知填写reward，意为“回报，报酬”。
