5、appy,” Hausher added.解析文章大意:这是一篇记叙文,讲述了Jackie的孙女Sunshine把存钱罐中准备买摩托雪橇的钱取出来为付不起牛奶钱的朋友买牛奶的故事。1考查代词。指代存钱罐中准备买摩托雪橇的钱,money为不可数名词,故填it。2考查非谓语动词。空处与“her piggy bank”构成宾语补足语。因为Sunshine与empty之间为主谓关系,故填动词ing 形式。3考查副词。空处修饰形容词surprised,应填副词。4考查宾语从句。空处引导宾语从句,作found out的宾语,且在宾语从句中作宾语,故填what。5考查时态。Jackie解释说,她已经为Sun
6、shine这个月的牛奶付了钱了。由时间状语already可知,谓语动词用完成时;因为主句的谓语动词为一般过去时,从句谓语表示的动作发生在主句谓语表示的动作之前,因此宾语从句的谓语动词应用过去完成时。6考查连词。根据语境可知,前后表示转折关系,故填but。7考查名词。the为定冠词,后面要跟名词。explanation“解释,理由”。8考查非谓语动词。知道了Sunshine的做法以后,Hausher老师在GoFundMe上注册了一个账户来筹钱。此处应用不定式短语作目的状语。9考查序数词。Hausher老师为她的整个班级筹钱以支付第二学期的牛奶费用。由语境及the可知,此处应用序数词。10考查主谓
7、一致。分析句子结构并根据语境可知,此处为非限制性定语从句,which指代前文的内容,故填makes。2Once, it was difficult to imagine a morning without a newspaper.

11、络慢慢代替了报纸,成为人们获取新闻的方式,并且上网看新闻的好处很多。1考查动词的时态。由But可知,此处表示现在的情况与第一句中描述的过去的情况不同。“世界已经改变”是从过去开始持续到现在,并还可能继续下去的动作,应用现在完成时。2考查形容词。根据语境可知,空处应填 latest。latest意为“最新的”。3考查过去分词。这里是指新闻被发送到手机上,即在手机上看新闻。send和news构成逻辑上的动宾关系,故用sent。4考查冠词。这里的意思是“报纸读者的数量”,表示“的数量”用“the number of.”。5考查词形转换。根据空前的a可知,此处应用名词。attraction“喜爱,喜欢
12、”。6考查主语从句。分析句子结构可知,这里it是形式主语,后面的从句是真正的主语,且从句不缺成分,故应用that引导。7考查介词。很多报纸读者会逐渐转向网络。turn to“转向”,为固定搭配。8考查被动语态。“我”在报纸上读到的所有新闻在网站或电视上都能被找到。find和news构成被动关系,故用被动语态,空前有情态动词,故用be found。9考查动词不定式。allow sb. to do sth.意为“允许某人做某事”,故填to choose。10考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词sites,且空处在定语从句中作地点状语,故填where。3A dear

16、s inhonour of her 30 years on the earth.So far I 10.have done (do) 13 acts!解析文章大意:本文讲述了“我”的朋友为了庆祝她的30岁生日,举办了一个不一样的生日聚会“善举”生日聚会。1表示“第三十”应该用序数词thirtieth。2_most women of her age might do为宾语从句,作doing的宾语;宾语从句中缺少宾语,故填what。3泛指某一家餐馆用不定冠词,又因expensive为元音音素开头的单词,所以用冠词an。4句意:被邀请参加聚会的所有朋友都被要求花钱做善举。who_(invite)to
17、 the party为非限制性定语从句,who在定语从句中作主语,指代All friends,由此可知此处表示“被邀请”,且动作发生在过去,也可表示过去已完成的动作,故填were invited或had been invited。5spend money on sth.为固定搭配,意为“花钱在某事/物上”,故填介词on。6此处用副词personally来修饰定语从句的谓语,表示“亲自写卡片给每个客人”,故填personally。7句意:她向我们解释她正迈向人生中一个新的阶段to为介词,其后接人称代词宾格,故填us。8句意:她想要一个特别的庆生会。形容词special应修饰名词,故填celebr
18、ation。9句意:“所以我给她的礼物就是在接下来的30天内我要做30个善举以纪念她出生30年。”the following month 意为“在随后的一个月里”,故填following。10句意:到目前为止,我已经做了13个善举!根据时间状语So far可知应使用现在完成时,故填have done。4When I was in primary school, I didnt like going to school.I had 1.difficulty (difficult) in reading and writing and I always could not answer the t

22、故填difficulty。2考查副词。分析句子结构可知,此处应用副词修饰动词answer,故填correctly。3考查时态和语态。作者描述小时候的事情,所以用一般过去时。主语I与laugh是被动关系,故空处应用一般过去时的被动式was laughed。4考查介词。have interest in.“对有兴趣”。5考查非谓语动词。decide to do sth.“决定做某事”,故填to change。6考查连词。根据语境可知,上下文之间是因果关系,且为前因后果,故填So。7考查时态。空处叙述过去发生的事情,所以应用一般过去时。8考查连词。此处指当我上四年级的时候成绩仍然在提高,故填When,
23、表示“当时”。9考查冠词。student是可数名词单数,所以应用不定冠词表示泛指,又因senior的发音以辅音音素开头,故应填a。10考查形容词。分析句子结构可知,空处应用形容词作表语。5The Tower Bridge is one of the bridges over the River Thames.It is close to the Tower of London, from 1.which the Tower Bridge got its name.It is a symbol of London.It is recorded that the Tower Bridge 2.wa

28、级可数名词复数”为固定结构,故此处应用most famous。4句意:它的中间部分可以升高以便让大型船只通过,这很有趣。表语从句中已有谓语can be raised,let在此处应用非谓语动词形式作目的状语,所以应用let的动词不定式。故填to let。5句意:人们经常认为伦敦塔和伦敦塔桥具有同样的年头。“of名词”表示“具有某种属性或特点”。故填of。6句意:但是实际上,伦敦塔建于大约一千年前,而后者仅仅有一百多年的历史。根据句意可知,此处应用But表示转折。故填But。7根据句意可知主语the latter指的是the Tower Bridge,为第三人称单数,且为一般现在时。故应填has
29、。8句意:它的照片也出现在2012年伦敦夏季奥运会的开幕式上。此处应用非谓语动词作定语修饰the Summer Olympic Games,hold与所修饰的词之间是逻辑上的被动关系,所以应用hold的过去分词。故填held。9句意:你肯定会有一次精彩的经历,它会给你留下持久的印象。修饰动词have,应用副词,根据句意可知此处表达“必定”之意。故填surely。10句意见上一题解析。设空处作leave的宾语,应用名词。故填impression。6Traveling is a very good activity.When you are tired of your work and when

33、ngs 10.that/which can happen to a tourist.解析文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。作者介绍了旅行给我们带来的益处以及可能遇到的困难。1考查名词复数。place为可数名词且其前没有限定词,故用名词复数形式。2考查介词。make friends with sb.“和某人交朋友”,是固定短语。3考查副词。空处作状语修饰形容词relaxed,故用fully。4考查非谓语动词。空处在句中作定语,且tasks与wait之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,故用动词ing形式。5考查词形转换。空处在句中作定语,修饰thing,故用形容词。6考查主谓一致。主语是the bus or car
34、,谓语动词遵循“就近原则”。car为单数,故谓语动词用has。7考查时态。根据语境可知,此处是指当你正在爬山的时候,故用现在进行时。8考查冠词。表示发烧、感冒时,前面要用不定冠词。catch a cold“感冒”。9考查词形转换。根据空前的an可知,此处应填名词单数形式injury。10考查定语从句。空处引导定语从句,修饰先行词things,并在从句中作主语,故用that/which。7Since a university education in the United States 1.is (be) very expensive, most students work in additio

39、sually。3work as意为“做工作”,as是介词,意为“作为”。故填as。4telephone是可数名词,其前无冠词和代词,所以此处应使用其复数形式。故填telephones。5but后的分句中已有谓语动词have,所以此处是非谓语动词作定语,修饰schedule,allow与其之间是逻辑上的主动关系,所以应用现在分词形式。故填allowing。6_they hope will help them find employment after they graduate是非限制性定语从句,先行词是前面的一句话,引导词在从句中作hope的宾语。故填which。7此处是特指工作和学习的双重责任,应使用定冠词。故填The。8修饰后面的名词life应使用形容词作定语。故填stressful。9前句说学生有压力,后句说这是唯一解决他们大学教育的经济问题的方式。前后句子构成转折的关系,且设空后有逗号与后面句子隔开,因此使用However。10此处指“学生他们自己”,应使用反身代词themselves。
