In an essay or assignment, your purpose is to convey information and draw conclusions. But if you are writing a business
15、report, you may want to make recommendations(建议)”可知，开始写作前最基本的问题就是问问自己为何写作。写论文旨在传达信息并得出结论。但如果你正在写一份商业报告，你可能想提出一些建议。所以以上列举了写作之前的目的是什么。故判断出小题1是对上述写作目的的总结。故F选项“不管是什么，时刻牢记你的写作目的，避免偏离主题”符合题意。故F选项切题。2D解析：由“The result is often disjointed writing with parts that dont connect.”可知，结果导致写作各部分不连贯。所以判断出小题2说的是原因，才导
16、致了写作各部分不连贯。故D选项“人们写东西往往不拟提纲”符合题意。故D选项切题。3G解析：由“Each sentence, each paragraph should be relevant to what comes before and what comes after. You should use words and phrases that connect to show these connections.”可知，每个句子、每个段落都应与上下文有关。你应使用互相联系的单词和短语来衔接。所以判断出小题3要总说向读者清晰地展示各个部分如何衔接，然后再具体分说各个部分如何衔接和以什么来衔
17、接。故G选项“为此，有必要向读者清晰地展示各个部分如何衔接”符合题意。故G选项切题。4A解析：由“Your aim in writing is to communicate ideas and information to other people, and you must keep that in mind with every word and sentence you write. Constantly ask yourself who you really write the information for.”可知，写作的目的是要向他人传递思想与信息，写一词一句你都要牢记这一点。不断
18、地问自己，你真正为谁写信息。所以本段主要说的就是写作是给读者看而不是自己。故A选项“写作是给读者看而不是自己”符合题意。故A选项切题。5E解析：由“Revise so you are more comfortable giving your speech.”可知，进行修改，演讲就会更顺畅。所以判断出小题5说的是在大声朗读时发生了什么样的情况，才导致下文的进行修改。故E选项“你会听出不适合的地方”符合题意。故E选项切题。.语法填空Many kinds of dinosaurs bones _1_ (find) recently by Chinese scientists in Nanyang c

21、在河南省南阳县发现了很多恐龙骨骼。由“recently”可知，本句为现在完成时，主语为Many kinds of dinosaurs bones，和动词find是被动关系，所以用被动语态have been found。故填have been found。2When解析：考查连词。句意：当科学家们检查这些骨头时，他们惊讶地发现这些恐龙不仅能像其他恐龙一样奔跑，而且还能爬树。分析句子可知，空处缺少从属连词，根据句意，应填从属连词when。位于句首，首字母大写，故填 When。3to_spot解析：考查动词不定式。句意：当科学家们检查这些骨头时，他们惊讶地发现这些恐龙不仅能像其他恐龙一样奔跑，而且还
22、能爬树。be surprised to do sth.“惊讶地做某事”。故填to spot。4like解析：考查介词。句意：当科学家们检查这些骨头时，他们惊讶地发现这些恐龙不仅能像其他恐龙一样奔跑，而且还能爬树。分析句子可知，空处应填介词，根据句意，应填like。5out解析：考查副词。句意：恐龙大约在6千万年前突然灭绝。die out“灭绝”符合句意。故填out。6it解析：考查代词。句意：一些科学家认为恐龙灭绝是在一个意外事件之后发生的，当时宇宙中的一块巨石击中地球，在空气中扬起太多的灰尘。分析句子可知，宾语从句缺少主语，根据句意，主语指的是恐龙灭绝，所以用it来指代。故填it。7unex
23、pected解析：考查形容词。句意：一些科学家认为恐龙灭绝是在一个意外事件之后发生的，当时宇宙中的一块巨石击中地球，在空气中扬起太多的灰尘。unexpected为形容词修饰名词accident。故填unexpected。8and解析：考查连词。句意：一些科学家认为恐龙灭绝是在一个意外事件之后发生的，当时宇宙中的一块巨石击中地球，在空气中扬起太多的灰尘。分析句子可知，本句缺少连词来连接hit和put。根据句意，hit与put为并列关系。故填and。9more解析：考查固定短语。句意：其他人则认为地球太热了，恐龙无法再生存下去。not.any more“不再”为固定短语。本句的否定词隐含在前文的too.to“太而不能”中。故填more。10for解析：考查介词。句意：没人确切地知道恐龙是如何在这么短的时间内从地球上消失的。for sure“确定地”为固定短语。故填for。
