解析：本題考查介詞的用法。選項A“during”表示“在…期間”，但此處強調(diào)的是整個表演過程中，所以不符合題意。選項C“for”表示“為了”，選項D“after”表示“在…之后”，這兩個選項都與題意不符。選項B“throughout”表示“貫穿整個”，符合題意，表示在整個表演過程中，所以選B。2、She__________herphoneandcouldn’tfinditanywhereinthehouse.A.lostB.hadlostC.haslostD.waslosing答案：A

解析：本題考查動詞的時態(tài)和語態(tài)。根據(jù)句意，手機是在過去某個時間丟失的，所以應(yīng)該用一般過去時。選項B“hadlost”是過去完成時，表示在過去某個時間之前已經(jīng)丟失，不符合題意。選項C“haslost”是現(xiàn)在完成時，表示從過去到現(xiàn)在一直丟失，也不符合題意。選項D“waslosing”是過去進行時，表示過去某個時刻正在進行的動作，與題意不符。選項A“l(fā)ost”是一般過去時，符合題意，表示過去丟失了手機，所以選A。3、Inthe___________(quickly)possibletime,weshouldfinishtheproject.答案：quickest

解析：本題考查形容詞最高級。根據(jù)句意，我們需要在可能最快的時間內(nèi)完成項目，所以應(yīng)該使用形容詞最高級。quickly的最高級形式是quickest。4、She___________(be)alwaysveryhelpfultomewhenIneedhelp.答案：hasbeen

解析：本題考查現(xiàn)在完成時。根據(jù)句意，她在需要幫助時總是很有幫助，這是一種對現(xiàn)在持續(xù)有影響的過去動作的描述，所以應(yīng)該使用現(xiàn)在完成時。正確的動詞形式是hasbeen。5.Inthe___________ofourschool,thereisabeautifullakesurroundedbygreentreesandflowers.A.centerB.middleC.middleofD.centerofAnswer:D
