12、学金是留给那些有特殊资质的学生”，那么接下来文章应该对这个话题进行说明，故F项“有学术、运动或艺术才能的人可能获得奖励”符合语境。3C空后说“Fastweb is such a searcher”，那么前面就会谈到，搜索奖学金最好的办法就是使用个性化搜索引擎。故正确答案为C。4G空前说“If you supply an.”，由此可推断出，此空应该继续说Fastweb的一些情况，故G项“在Fastweb上可以搜索大学以及许多其他学生资源”符合语境。5B空前说“获得奖学金的学生常常需要额外的经济资助”，那么接下来文章就会谈一些学生和父母贷款的信息，故B项“在贷款部分看学生和家长贷款的贷款信息”符合

16、 Last, how much will an ant gather during summer to prepare for winter? All that it _9_ (possible) can. _10_ you can learn from the ant philosophy is: never give up, look ahead, stay positive and do all you can.答案与解析语篇解读本文主要介绍了蚂蚁哲学的四个部分。1amazing考查词类转换。所填词修饰philosophy，表示事物的特征、性质，应用ing形式的形容词，故填amazing
17、。2looking考查固定用法。quit doing sth.意为“停止做某事”。故填looking。3are supposed考查时态和语态。they与suppose为动宾关系，且此处应用一般现在时；又因主语是they，故填are supposed。4preparations考查固定搭配。make preparations for sth.意为“为某事做准备”，是固定短语。5when考查连词。when意为“当时”，在此引导时间状语从句。6themselves考查代词。此处指提醒“自己”。结合语境可知，they指代ants，故填themselves。7the考查冠词。此处表示“第”，序数词前常
18、用定冠词the。8turns考查时态和语态。此处叙述的是将来的情况，if引导的条件状语从句用一般现在时表示将来；主语it与turn为主谓关系，故填turns。9possibly考查副词。副词possibly修饰动词，作状语。10What考查主语从句。_you can learn from the ant philosophy是主语从句，且从句中缺少宾语，所填词起双重代词的作用，且位于句首，故应用What。四、短文改错Recently, Robert Whiting, an elderly gentleman with 83, arrived in Paris by plane.
