【解析】

 試題分析：本文描述了一個(gè)笑話，三人討論的是世界上最偉大的奇跡是什么，一個(gè)說是金字塔，一個(gè)說是電腦，而第三個(gè)人卻說是暖水瓶，并給出了一個(gè)令人啼笑皆非的答案。

1.根據(jù)后面的介詞about可知所填的詞應(yīng)該為一不及物動(dòng)詞，所填空之前有一個(gè)be動(dòng)詞were，可知應(yīng)用進(jìn)行時(shí)，在結(jié)合后面的賓語是世界上最了不起的奇跡，故可推知答案應(yīng)該為談?wù)�，即talking。

2.根據(jù)第一個(gè)人的話可知金字塔任然屹立在那里，再結(jié)合句首字母前句推測(cè)應(yīng)該是說金字塔是人們?cè)趲浊�年前建造的，即built，注意時(shí)態(tài)應(yīng)該用一般過去時(shí)。

3.結(jié)合前后兩句話的內(nèi)容可知，此處指的是他們當(dāng)時(shí)沒有我們現(xiàn)在的現(xiàn)代化機(jī)器，他們是怎么建成的呢？故答案為modern。

4.賓語從句的內(nèi)容是說金字塔是偉大的，可知前后應(yīng)該是順承關(guān)系，即用承認(rèn)比較合適，時(shí)態(tài)為一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)，故答案為agree。

5.每個(gè)人都知道巨大變化的發(fā)生應(yīng)該是在計(jì)算機(jī)誕生之后出現(xiàn)的，即我們?nèi)祟惏l(fā)明計(jì)算機(jī)之后，故答案為invented。

6.句首說三個(gè)人在討論，前面已經(jīng)有兩個(gè)人發(fā)言了，順理成章地現(xiàn)在說話的應(yīng)該是第三個(gè)人，即third。

7.根據(jù)第三個(gè)人后面的話I think the most wonderful thing is the thermos(熱水瓶).可推測(cè)，他應(yīng)該是不同意前兩個(gè)人的觀點(diǎn)的，故答案為disagree。

8.根據(jù)后面的感嘆句和“ Why? It’s a simple(簡單) thing.”可知，此處應(yīng)該是表達(dá)強(qiáng)烈的感情，即吃驚。所以，他們兩個(gè)人應(yīng)該是對(duì)第三個(gè)人的言語感到意外的，故答案為surprised。

9.根據(jù)“把水放在里面他可以保溫”和后面的In Summer形成對(duì)比，可知此處說的是在冬天，即答案為winter。

10.此處應(yīng)該是特殊疑問詞引導(dǎo)的賓語從句，后面說“是冬天還是夏天”，所以應(yīng)該用when，即暖水瓶怎么知道什么時(shí)間是冬天什么時(shí)間是夏天呢？故答案為when。

考點(diǎn)：閱讀填空。
