Answer 1

分析 本文讲述了一个偷窃事件．两人是因为布里斯托尔的一个仓库偷衣服被捕．两人闯进仓库昨日深夜，攻击警卫，然后偷偷收集昂贵的名牌服装，价值超过40000£．路人打电话报警，但两人设法从后门逃走．但是后来其中一人在自己的家中被捕，仅仅数小时后，躲在一个朋友家里的第二人被捕．两人现在已经被指控抢劫并将在星期一出现在法庭上．被攻击的卫兵已经出院了．

解答 51．broke．考查谓语动词的时态．根据时间状语 late yesterday evening可知谓语动词用过去式broke． 
52．him．考查人称代词．根据attacked the guard可知本句是说把警卫绑起来，所以用 him代指他． 
53．which/that．考查关系词．定语从句was worth over£40，000的先行词是a collection，所以用which/that做关系代词，做从句的主语． 
54．A．考查冠词．第一次提到 passer-by （路人）用不定冠词．
55．to escape．修饰非谓语动词．managed后用动词不定式做宾语．所以用 to escape． 
56．stolen．考查非谓语动词．steal做 clothes的定语，而且二者之间是被动关系，所以用stolen表示"被偷的衣服"．
57．hiding．考查非谓语动词． 根据the police caught the second man just hours later和 hide at a friend's house可知后句是the second man 的定语，二者之间是主动关系，所以用hiding，表示"捉住正藏在朋友家的另一个贼"．
58．with．考查固定短语． charge sb with sth．表示"因某事控告某人"
59．If/Once．考查引导词．they are found guilty是the two men will go to prison for a number of years．的条件，所以用 If/Once，表示"如果他们有罪，这两个男人会入狱几年"． 
60．was attacked．考查谓语动词．分析The guard（主语） who（60）（attack）（定语从句） has now been released （主句的谓语）from hospital（状语）的结构可知句义是"被攻击的卫兵已经出院了"，所以定语从句的谓语动词用一般过去时态的被动语态，所以答案是was attacked．
