88、 65(he) production very much.Thanks to Yuan Longping,he not only won the battle against hunger,but he could also export his crops abroad.答案与解析【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了越南农民Tuan受到袁隆平故事的激励而努力去提高农作物产量的故事。56.of考查介词。句意:几十年来,他一直在努力让他的家人摆脱饥饿。ridsbof是固定短语,意为“使某人摆脱”。故填of。57.toexpand考查动词不定式。句意:但是,如何扩大农作物产量这个问题一直困扰着
89、他。此句是“疑问词+不定式”作主语。故填toexpand。58.disturbing考查形容词。句意:这个令人烦恼的问题导致他后悔当了一个农民。形容词修饰名词作定语。故填disturbing。59.another考查限定词。句意:他宁愿选择另一份工作。anotherjob意为“另一份工作”。故填another。60.focused考查动词时态。句意:他在袁隆平的国籍和职业下画了线,然后开始专注于他的发现和他的研究数据。根据上文中“HeunderlinedYuansnationalityandoccupation”的时态,可知谓语动词用一般过去时。故填focused。61.practical考查
90、形容词。句意:他发现袁隆平的知识非常实用。此处形容词作宾补。故填practical。62.himself考查代词。句意:他种植了营养丰富的超级谷物,并配备了防止细菌和害虫的设备。本句的主语为he。主语与宾语为同一个人或者事物时,宾语用反身代词,所以此处用反身代词himself作宾语。故填himself。63.reducing考查非谓语动词。句意:他还增加了土壤中的矿物质,同时减少了化肥的使用。分析句子可知,此处是非谓语动词作状语,he和reduce在逻辑上是主谓关系,应用动词的-ing形式。故填reducing。64.freedom考查名词。句意:虽然这让他失去了更多的时间和自由,但是他充满了
91、希望。此空与time并列,作宾语。故填freedom。65.his考查代词。句意:第二年,Tuan虽然晒黑了,但对自己的产品很满意。名词前应用形容性物主代词。故填his。第四部分写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节(满分15分)(2020安徽淮北第一中学期末考试)假定你是红星中学高一学生李华,为配合学校开展垃圾分类工作,学生会向全校学生发出了“垃圾分类从我做起”的倡议,请你代表学生会,用英语写一封倡议信。内容包括:1.严峻形势;2.垃圾分类的意义;3.垃圾分类的做法;4.呼吁全体同学参加。注意:1.词数80左右;2.开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数。提示词:垃圾分类garbage sortingDe
