25、.四、书面表达(满分25分)假如你是李华,日前看到某英文报社向全球中学生征集有关绿色校园建设的稿件,请根据以下内容要点和要求写一篇英文短文。要点:1.建设绿色校园(green campus)重要性;2.绿色校园不仅指绿色环境;3.具体措施。要求: 1.词数120左右; 2.书写务必清晰、工整。_高三（上）英语第15周周末练习答案 2014.12.11一、单选：21.A第一空特指“天宫一号”的成功发射,故用定冠词the;第二空则表示“朝迈进一步”,表示泛指,故用不定冠词a。22.Bit代替上文提到的同一物, 在这里特指那件灰色丝绸裙子。23.C句意:现在有一些下岗工人愉快地承担了在医院里伺候病人
26、的工作。look on“旁观”;take on“呈现”;wait on“伺候;服侍”;feed on“以为食”。24.Bcome about “产生, 发生”;come across “偶然发现 (某物), 偶然遇到 (某人) ”;come through “经历, 接通”;come up “太阳升起, 长出地面, 出现,发生”。句意:什么使她那么害怕?哦, 是她在找手表时在床上看到的那只老鼠。25.D答句句意:不担心语文、数学, 尤其不担心英语。as far as “远至, 一直到”;at the least “至少”;best of all “最好”;least of all “最不, 尤
27、其不”。根据句意, D项正确。26.AGo ahead “继续干吧, 请讲, 请说, 可以”;Its a pleasure “不客气”, 是回答道谢的用语;Help yourself “你请随便吃, 随便用”。由语境可知, A项符合题意。27.C解决本题的关键是将句子结构理清楚, 题中问句还原成陈述句为:It is that has made him he is today.再结合语意 “病人看上去好多了, 是什么使他成为现在这个样子的” 可知选C项。28.Ain return “作为的交换, 作为的回报”;by return “(接到信后)立即回复”;in turn “相应地, 转而, 反过
28、来”。句意:他们让我们使用他们的计算机, 而作为回报, 我们应该把我们的研究成果给他们。根据句意A项正确。29.A句意:老师正在认真地写东西,只是偶尔停下来查阅一两本书。这里用现在分词短语作伴随状语。only to do表示“不料,竟然”,可排除,因为这里不是表示出乎预料的结果。30.A由答语中的“Yes.”可知, 是踢得好, 所以用A项。比较级用于否定句式表示最高级意义;couldnt have done表示对发生在过去的事情进行否定推测。31.D在肯定句中, be able to 常用来表示成功地做成了某件事, 而could则表示过去有能力做某事但未必能成功做到。故D项符合题意。32.D句
29、意:人们期望红十字会将援助送到任何有人受苦的地方。whoever “无论谁”;however “无论怎样”;whatever “无论什么”;wherever “无论哪里”。根据句意, 选D项。33.B从前面的announced可知, 比赛还未进行, 而且announced 是过去式, 故这里应该用过去将来时, 因此B 项正确。34.A句意:我母亲很难满足, 她总是抱怨不停。satisfy “使满意, 满足”;amuse “使消遣, 娱乐”;expect “期盼, 期待”;treat “对待”。由句意可知, A项正确。35.B句意:马太先生一听到这个消息,离开匆忙走出房子,然后启动车子后,一直向
30、城里开去。the moment引导时间状语从句,意为“一就”。the moment引导时间状语从句,主句的谓语动词是hurried和drove, having started是现在分词作状语,修饰谓语动词drove。二、完型：36.B于公元2000年12月31日午夜后打开(opened)。38空后面的“to watch the opening of the box”是线索提示。37.C这个盒子被贮藏(stored)在科罗拉多学院图书馆里。store “贮藏”。38.A300人聚在一起(gathered)见证了盒子打开的过程。39.D人群(crowd)中的很多人都是当年往盒子里放东西的人的后代。
31、40.B参见上题解析。41.C当盒子在午夜后(after)被打开时,盒子里的东西保存完好。36空后面的“after midnight”是线索提示。42.A参见上题解析。in good condition表示“保存完好”。43.D盒子里面有报纸、照片、日记、名片、家谱、书籍和(and)很多信。44.B包括一封由罗斯福写(written)的信。45.C他后来成为美国的总统(President)。此空根据美国历史可知答案。46.A很多信的收信人都是他们的后代。address “在(信封、包裹等)上写姓名和地址”。47.D信中叙述了1901年的人对下一个世纪的人的希望(hopes)。48.B参见上题解
32、析。38空前面的“One hundred years later”是线索提示。49.D那时科罗拉多斯普林斯只有几千居民(residents)。根据本段最后一句可知此处说的是当地居民。50.A科罗拉多学院图书馆将材料进行了扫描,然后放到了网站(website)上。51.CCecil Muller的祖父把一套明信片放(placed)入了盒子里。40空前面的“placed”是线索提示。52.BCecil Muller说这个时间囊是个巨大的宝藏(treasure)。53.D我们可以学到很多(much)历史。54.A我不了解我的祖父,但现在我感觉和他很亲近(close)。close(to sb.)表示“
33、和(某人)亲近”。55.A2001年4月,人们再次将时间囊装满了来自现代科罗拉多斯普林斯的物品(items)。三、阅读：56.B第一段最后说“从他们花钱的方式能看出他们在生活中真正重视什么”,由此判断选B项。57.D第四段中被采访的那个百万富翁说:“人们这么尊敬我,这最让我感到惊讶。我什么都不是,我知道的也不多,我只是有钱。”从这句回答可以推断D项正确,他觉得自己不应该受到如此多的关注。58.A最后一段说,该教授在书中向大家传达了一点:钱是一个工具,而不是人生的最终目标。由此判断选A项。59.B文章最后一句作者说,在物质世界,钱的作用很重要,但是指望金钱给我们带来幸福的话就会错失人生的真谛。由
34、此可知,“财富一定能给拥有者带来幸福”是错误的,不是作者的观点。四、书面表达There is no doubt that a green campus plays an important role in the growth of every student, physically and mentally.A green campus not only refers to the eco-friendly environment where we study but also the place we learn to live in harmony with our peers as w
35、ell as nature.In my view, laying down regulations and rules on campus should be the first step we take to ensure appropriate conducts among us students. For example, we are not allowed to leave tap dripping after use. Plus, it is of great significance to enhance every students awareness of creating green campus. For example, posters can be put up around the campus to remind us to walk instead of taking lifts or to encourage honesty and mutual respect among us.We believe that, if we make joint efforts, a green campus will be achieved in the near future.
