【解析】

試題分析:

 結合下文It’s time for me to teach you how to make可知句意為我要教給你我知道的關于手表的所有知識。前有助動詞will，故填teach。

 結合下文After about six months ,可知句意為：在開始幾周，故填序數詞first。

 結合下文可知詹姆斯做的不錯，可知本句句意為：他工作努力，對顧客很有幫助。結合be動詞was可知后面用help的形容詞形式，故填helpful。Be helpful to 對……有幫助的。

 .結合上下文可知他的父親喬治對他很滿意。結合be動詞was可知此處用形容詞格式，故填pleased，滿意的。

 考察短語make money。結合下文how we get so much money；we don’t make most of the money from it。可知此處是交給詹姆斯如何掙錢，故填money。

 .結合下文可知句意為：你以一個低價買手表，然后以一個更高的價格賣掉他們。故填high的比較級higher。

 .結合下文可知句意為：是那樣，但是我們所有的前不是從這里面賺的。上下文為轉折關系，故填連詞but。

 .結合上文可知此處是賣掉它的意思，介詞后面不能接動詞，故sell需變成動名詞形式。另外通過下文相同結構：we make our money from fixing也可以判斷此處應用動名詞。

 通過下文父親的描述Those cheap ones get us more money than any other watch in the shop.”

可知詹姆斯答錯了，故填形容詞wrong，錯的。

 .結合上文可知這句話表達的意思是我們通過修理他們掙錢。本句中代詞指代前文提到的那些便宜的手表，此處代詞作動詞賓語，故填they的賓格形式them。

考點：記敘文閱讀理解
