Fortunately 44. had been 45. one【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。本文描述的是作者有一天在迪拜购物中心,一位工友警告说沙尘暴即将来临,并建议不要外出,由于作者没有见过沙尘暴,所以跟工友说想出去看看,工友感到很惊讶,认为作者疯了,在作者外出经历了沙尘暴之后,感到后悔宁愿自己没有外出的故事。【详解】1.考查宾语从句。句意:我不知道沙尘暴是什么样子,我告诉他我想出去看看。分析句子可知此处包含一个定语从句,从句缺少宾语,由句意“沙尘暴看起来是什么样子”可知,应用what引导该从句。故填what。2. 考查形容词。句意:我
75、收到一个惊讶的眼神,因为他认为我疯了,甚至想看到沙尘暴。分析句子结合句意可知,空处应填入形容词作定语,修饰名词look,此处修饰人的感情,要用-ed结尾形容词。故填astonished。3. 考查动词时态。句意:另一个工友也加入了我行列,他正朝着和我一样的街道走去。分析句子可知空处为句子的谓语,由“as 当时”可知,这里要用过去进行时,主语he为第三人称单数,系动词应用was,故填was heading。4. 考查介词。句意:为了抵御沙尘暴,我们蒙着脸走出迪拜购物中心。根据句意可知此处表示“离开”,短语“step off”表示“离开”。故填off。5. 考查非谓语动词。句意:为了抵御沙尘暴,我
76、们蒙着脸走出迪拜购物中心。句子已有谓语动词stepped off,所以cover在句中应使用非谓语动词形式,结合句意可知,cover与逻辑主语faces之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词表被动,故填covered。6. 考查形容词比较级。句意:在路上,风变得更大了,把城市笼罩在一层厚厚的棕黄色灰尘里。由句意和much修饰比较级可知,此处形容词应用比较级形式,故填stronger。7. 考查动词时态。句意:在那一刻,我宁愿我没有出去。由would rather可知,此处表示对过去的虚拟,时态用过去完成时had(not)done,故填hadnt gone。8. 考查副词。句意:幸运的是,沙尘暴后来停止
77、了。分析句子结构结合句意可知,此处应用副词作状语,修饰句子。故填Fortunately。9. 考查动词时态。句意:这是我第一次在迪拜遇到沙尘暴,我不想再遇到沙尘暴了。在固定句型“It was the first (second, third) time that +从句”的结构中,从句时态用过去完成时。故填had been。10. 考查代词。句意:这是我第一次在迪拜遇到沙尘暴,我不想再遇到沙尘暴了。分析句子可知,此处缺少宾语,由句意可知,宾语泛指“沙尘暴”,所以应用代词one。故填one。第四部分 写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节 应用文写作(满分15分)46. 假定你是校英语报的记者李华,上

94、tage. Emily White, with so many birth problems in her body, was an angel.【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知,Emily17年前出生时身体就有很多问题,她的一些器官、骨骼和肌肉变形了,好在Eimly有一副美丽的歌喉,但她在去年想要参加音乐选拔,却被音乐老师无情拒绝。今年来了一位新的音乐老师听说了她的事情,给与了她一次展示自己的机会,Emily很感激,但到等待选拔结果的时候她很紧张。续写部分分为两段。【详解】根据提示,第一段开头:The next day, Emily nervously glanced
95、 at the list on the door of the choral room. Emily匆忙赶到合唱室,焦虑地看着合唱室门上的名单。所以可以接着写:她这一次没有被拒绝,她的名字位于榜首,被选中成为了主唱,她可以在表演中独唱了。但是Emily不敢相信,觉得肯定是搞错了,但Butler老师带着坚定的眼神说:“我选择你是因为你要演唱这一部分,你的声音太不寻常了,相信自己。”受到了极大的鼓舞,Emily的训练真的非常努力。第二段的开头是:终于,表演的那天来了。所以可以接着写:站在队伍前面,Emily感到喉咙发紧,手心冒汗。大幕打开时,所有观众的目光都落在Emily身上。“Emily Whi
