57、速走红。从那以后,它已经在国外的合作流媒体平台和电视网络上播出。)可知,它一上映就很受欢迎。故选C。2.词义猜测题。根据转折词but可知,前后句意相反,前文“I was worried that they wouldnt understand the complex political structure of the Tang Dynasty”(我担心他们无法理解唐朝复杂的政治结构)将外国观众可能无法理解唐朝历史,所以后文是讲这部电视剧反而鼓励了外国观众搜索唐朝历史来更好地理解情节。所以prompting和encouraging词义相同。故选D。3.细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“The s

67、不想让你的假期成为你永远记得的那种,并在未来的几年里谈论它吗?)”及空后一句“这里有一些处理所有信息的方法,以帮助你计划你的假期”可知,空处承上启下,应是讲述要有一个成功的假期需要计划,E项“但是,如果没有正确的计划,那可能不会发生!”符合语境,E项中的“that”指代空前一句内容,故选E项。 【17题详解】空处是段落小标题,根据本段中“Road trip games are always a great idea(公路旅行游戏总是一个好主意)”及“Creating your own soundtrack (原声带) is another key to a fun road trip.(创造你

Named 50. to provide【解析】【分析】本文属于新闻,介绍中国发射了北斗导航卫星系统的两颗新的卫星。【41题详解】考查时态、语态和主谓一致。根据时间状语on November 19 ,2018可知,本句要用一般过去时;send发送与句子主语
96、Two new satellites of the BeiDou Navigation(导航) Satellite System ( BDS)是被动关系,要用一般过去时的被动语态;且主语中心词是复数名词satellites,故谓语动词用复数形式,故用were sent。【42题详解】考查副词。本空修饰句子的谓语动词entered,故要用副词safely安全地。【43题详解】考查名词的数。根据前面的the 42nd and 43rd可知,此处为复数概念,故用members。44题详解】考查冠词。 with the aim of目的是为固定搭配,故用the。【45题详解】考察定语从句。partic

99、老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(),并在其下面写出该加的词。删除:把多余的词用斜线()划掉。修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意:1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;2. 只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。One of my classmates recommended a quote to us who goes like this: “Your future depends on many things but most
100、ly on you.” I cant agree more this view. Its true that our future is determining by many things, but our own attitude, determination, and hard work plays a more important role. In other word, we are the master of our own future.Take Abraham Lincoln for an example. He was born in a poor family, and o
101、nly received a limited education in her childhood. Yet through his efforts, he changed not only his own fate and the history of America. Even to this day, Lincoln is regarded as one of the more inspiring figures in the world. Therefore, I firm believe that our future is in our own hands.【答案】1. whoth
102、at/which2. 在agree more后加with3. determiningdetermined4. playsplay5. wordwords6. 去掉example前的an7. herhis8. andbut9. moremost10. firmfirmly【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文。讲述的是人们的“命运”大多数取决于“自己”。【详解】1. 考查定语从句关系词。该从句实则是修饰前面的先行词a quote(引言),表示物。在定语从句当中,修饰物时只有that/which充当从句主语,且起到连接作用。故将who改为that/which。2. 考查固定搭配。句意:我非常同意这一观点
103、。固定搭配agree with 同意。故在agree more后加with。3. 考查动词被动语态。该分句的the future(主语)与determine(谓语动词)之间是被动关系,所以动词determine应该使用被动语态。故将determining改为determined。4. 考查主谓一致。该句的主语是our own attitude, determination, and hard work三个并列主语,所以谓语动词应该是使用play,而不是使用第三人称单数形式。故将plays改为play。5. 考查固定搭配。句意:换句话说,我们是自己未来的掌控者。in other words为固定
104、搭配,意为换句话说。故将word改为words。6. 考查固定搭配。句意:以Abraham Lincoln为例。take sth./sb. for example 以.为例。故去掉example前的an。7. 考查形容词物主代词。Abraham Lincoln为男性,且根据上文的he可以推断出。这里的childhood指的是Lincoln的童年。故将her改为his。8. 考查连词。句意:他不仅改变了自己命运也改变了美国历史。not onlybut (also)不但而且。故将and改为but。9. 考查形容词最高级。one of +形容词最高级+可数名词复数,表示“.是最中的一个”。故将mor
105、e改为most。10. 考查副词。副词通常修饰形容词、动词、副词及整个句子。在该句中应用一个副词来修饰believe这个动词。故将firm改为firmly。【点睛】在这里要说明一个比较“隐蔽”的知识点,供学生参考学习。在中学学习阶段,firm常见的词性有:1)n.公司She is running a firm.(她现在正经营着一家公司)。2)adj.坚定的 She holds a firm belief.(她信仰坚定);而firmly常常当做adv.(副词)来看待,如本题的I firmly believe that our future is in our own hands.(我深信我们的未
106、来是掌握在我们手中的)。其实,firm也有adv.(副词)这一词性。但当这两个词都做副词的时候,firm和firmly之间在用法上有差异:firm (adv.) 只用于以下搭配;stand firm(站稳);Always hold firm to your beliefs.(不忘初心)firmly(adv.) 则用于其他场合,即修饰动词、形容词、副词及整个句子。如:I firmly believe that。第二节 书面表达(满分25分)52. 假如你是李华,你的外国笔友Tom到中国后隔离期已过,想外出旅游,让你给他推荐一个旅游城市,请你回复邮件,内容包括:1.城市名称;2.推荐理由;3.提醒
