84、例如打扫卫生、看孩子、遛狗等,来挣钱。通过做这些事情,孩子们不但挣到了钱,还学会了日常生活的必备技能,同时也体会到了自己通过劳动挣钱的乐趣。56.on考查介词。短语onweekends意为“在周末”,故填on。57.hours考查名词的数。hour是可数名词,前面是40,故此处用复数形式,故填hours。58.younger考查形容词比较级。此处应填形容词作为表语,根据than判断用比较级形式,故填younger。59.who/that考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,此处是定语从句关系词,先行词kids在从句中充当主语,故用指人的关系代词who/that,故填who/that。60.clean
85、ing考查非谓语动词。此处应填动词的-ing形式作为介词by的宾语,故填cleaning。61.them考查代词。they指代dogsweaters,此处应用宾格形式作为sell的宾语,故填them。62.todraw考查固定短语。短语asksbtodosth意为“要求某人做某事”,故填todraw。63.is考查时态。根据下文的are判断,此处为一般现在时,earning为动词的-ing形式作主语,看作第三人称单数,故填is。64.However考查副词。句意:然而,通过自己劳动挣的5美元比问别人要的20美元拿在手里的感觉要好很多。此处应填副词修饰后面整个句子,再结合语境可知上下文为转折关系
86、,故填However。65.probably考查副词。此处应填副词修饰动词make,故填probably。第四部分写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节(满分15分)假定你是李华,是某中学高一的新生。请你给外国笔友Steven写一封邮件,介绍你现在各方面的情况。信中包括以下内容:1.学校环境;2.师生相处;3.高中生活。注意:1.词数80左右;2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。Dear Steven,Yours,Li Hua参考范文Dear Steven,How are you?Im writing to tell you my lifestyle in the new school.Our sc
