Last year,my brother and I went to Miami for a vacation.Some of my friends who had been there before said 1 was a wonderful holiday destination.Before we went,we had planned for months.When the day came,we were ready.
After our plane landed,we went to the hotel.We had made our reservation six months 2 (early),but the man at the front desk said there had been a mistake.We 3 (tell)that our rooms hadn't been reserved for that week, 4 for the week after.I didn't understand 5 this would happen and my credit card had already been charged 6 the reservation.What's worse,the hotel had been fully booked.When we were wondering what to do,the manager came out.She was 7 (surprise)helpful.She apologized for the mistake and gave us a spare VIP room on 8 top floor.We had never stayed in such an amazing room,and we weren't charged extra.
The next day,my brother and I went to the beach 9 we watched some people play volleyball.We got a little 10 (sunburn),but the day had been so relaxing that we didn't mind.
【語(yǔ)篇導(dǎo)讀】 本文是一篇記敘文,記述了我和我兄弟去Miami(邁阿密)旅游,當(dāng)?shù)竭_(dá)目的地后,來(lái)到六個(gè)月前訂的賓館,卻意外被告知訂的房間是下個(gè)星期的,且該賓館房間已訂滿。正當(dāng)不知如何辦時(shí),經(jīng)理出來(lái)了,將他們安排在留出來(lái)的VIP房間,且不另外收他們的錢,真是喜出望外的事。
1.it [在said后的賓語(yǔ)從句中缺主語(yǔ),應(yīng)填代詞;指代前句中的Miami這個(gè)地方,應(yīng)用it。]
2.earlier [在句中作狀語(yǔ),依然用副詞;不變?cè)~性,因?yàn)槭禽^早的做的事,所以用比較級(jí)。]
3.were told [由句意可知,是“我們被告知”,由上下文的時(shí)態(tài)可知,用一般過(guò)去時(shí)的被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。]
4.but [根據(jù)上下句意,意為“不是為那個(gè)星期訂的,而是為后一個(gè)星期所訂的”,為not...but...結(jié)構(gòu)。]
5.why [意為“我不知道為什么會(huì)發(fā)生這樣的事”,故用why引導(dǎo)賓語(yǔ)從句。]
6.for [charge...for...是習(xí)慣搭配。]
7.surprisingly [因本句已有作表語(yǔ)的形容詞helpful,所以應(yīng)當(dāng)用副詞來(lái)修飾形容詞helpful,指“令人驚訝地,意外地”,故填surprisingly。]
8.the [特指“在頂樓”。]
9.where [先行詞是地點(diǎn)the beach,且在定語(yǔ)從句中作狀語(yǔ),故填where (=on which =and on the beach =and there)。]
10.sunburnt/sunburned [在表示“變化”的got后作表語(yǔ),要用形容詞;sunburn是名詞,其形容詞形式是burnt或burned。]

閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)以下提示:1)漢語(yǔ)提示,2)首字母提示,3)語(yǔ)境提示,在每個(gè)空格內(nèi)填入一個(gè)適當(dāng)?shù)挠⒄Z(yǔ)單詞,所填單詞要求意義準(zhǔn)確,拼寫正確。
Many of us were raised with the saying“Waste not,want not.”None of us,(1)h ,can completely avoid waste in our lives.
Any kind of waste is thoughtless.Whether we waste our potential talents,our own time,our limited natural (2) (資源),our money,or other people's time,each of us can become more aware and careful.The smallest good habits can make a big (3)d .It's a good feeling to know in our hearts we are doing our (4)b in a world that is in serious trouble.By focusing on (5) (節(jié)省)oil,water,paper,food,and clothing,we are playing a part (6) _________cutting down on waste.
We must keep reminding (7) (自己)that it is easier to get into something (8) _________it is to get out of it.Actually,severe damage (9)d to our land is fairly recent in the history of our evolution.It's time for us to (10) no to waste so that our grandchildren's children will be able to develop well.We can't solve all the problems of waste,but we can encourage mindfulness.
Waste not!
1.however [句意:然而,在我們的生活中,沒有人能完全避免浪費(fèi)。位于句中,前后都有逗號(hào),用副詞,所以填however。]
2.resources [作waste的賓語(yǔ),故用名詞形式,且用名詞復(fù)數(shù)。]
3.difference [句意:最小的好習(xí)慣也會(huì)起作用。make a difference是固定用法,意思是有影響,起作用。]
4.best [do one's best是固定用法,意思是盡某人最大的努力。]
5.saving [介詞on之后用動(dòng)詞的-ing形式。]
6. in play a part in [是固定用法,意思是“在……中起作用”。]
7.ourselves [句意:我們必須不斷地提醒我們自己,所以填反身代詞ourselves。]
8.than [這里進(jìn)行比較,所以用比較句式,故填than。]
9.done [“嚴(yán)重危害”和“作用于”之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系,故用過(guò)去分詞作定語(yǔ)。]
10.say [句意:是時(shí)候?qū)Α袄速M(fèi)”說(shuō)不了。It is time for sb to do sth是固定用法,意思是“是時(shí)候做某事了。” ]

閱讀下面短文,按照句子結(jié)構(gòu)的語(yǔ)法性和上下文連貫的要求,在空格處填入一個(gè)適當(dāng)?shù)脑~或使用括號(hào)中詞語(yǔ)的正確形式填空。
If the population of the Earth keeps on __1__(increase) at its present rate,there will __2__(event) not be enough resources left to support life on the planet. By the middle of the 21st century,if present trends continue,we __3__(use) up all the oil that drive our cars, for example. Even if scientists develop new ways of feeding the human race, the crowded conditions on Earth will make it __4__(necessity) for us to look for somewhere else. But __5__ of the other planets in our solar system are capable of supporting life at present. One possible solution to the problem,__6__, has recently been suggested by an American scientist, Professor Carl Sagan. Sagarn believes that __7__ the Earth’s resources are completely __8_(exhaust) ,it will be possible to change the atmosphere of Venus and __9__ create a new world almost as large as Earth itself. Something is difficult. Venus is much hotter than the Earth. __10__, there is only a tiny amount of water there.
1.[解析] 考查短語(yǔ)keep on doing的用法。
[答案] increasing
2.[解析] There will not be enough resources的主謂結(jié)構(gòu)是完整的,所以只能用event的副詞形式eventually作狀語(yǔ)。
[答案] eventually
3.[解析] 時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)是by+將來(lái)時(shí)間,謂語(yǔ)用將來(lái)完成時(shí)態(tài)。
[答案] will have used
4.[解析] 考查句型make+it+adj.+for+sb.+to do sth.。
[答案] necessary
5.[解析] 考查理解和代詞。根據(jù)意思應(yīng)該是“其他行星中到目前為止還沒有一個(gè)適合生命的生存?!眓one of+復(fù)數(shù)名詞/不可數(shù)名詞,表示“……中沒有一個(gè)。”
[答案] none
6.[解析] 考查上下文理解和行文邏輯。前文說(shuō)“沒辦法”,這里說(shuō)“可能的解決方案”所以用“however”表示轉(zhuǎn)折。
[答案] however
7.[解析] 考查內(nèi)容理解和從句。這里應(yīng)該是“在地球的資源完全枯竭之前”,所以用before。
[答案] before
8.[解析] 是個(gè)及物動(dòng)詞,“耗盡,用完”,這里應(yīng)該用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。
[答案] exhausted
9.[解析] 考慮到行文邏輯,這里表示的是結(jié)果,因此,so/therefore是最佳措辭。
[答案] so/therefore
10.[解析] 考查行文邏輯。文章最后兩句很明顯是解釋something is difficult這句話。有兩件事是困難的,除了Venus比地球熱得多,另一難題是那里的水有限,所以這里用Besides.
[答案] Besides

Why is reading so important? Joseph Addison once said, “Reading is to the mind what exercise is 48 the body.” I am sure you 49 have heard this quote. Reading is a great hobby, 50 makes you discover yourself. Reading good stories can help you solve some problems in your own life. Besides, reading 51 sets a good example to younger generations.
Sadly, people nowadays seem to have totally lost interest in this activity. Children are busy with computer games, 52 adults use their cell phones or computers to search for information. 53 seems that people have forgotten 54 importance of reading. Anybody can use the Internet to look for information, but the sources are 55 as reliable as a book.
To open a book is always beneficial! Don’t spend all your spare time on the computer screen or cell phones.

體裁:議論文 話題:歷史故事 時(shí)間:6分鐘
The movies just wouldn't be the same without the warm buttery taste of popcorn.Amazingly,this delicious treat started its life as a corn kernel(玉米粒)—and not from just any corn.Popcorn is a type of sweet corn that was originally grown in Mexico and spread to China,India and elsewhere.It is the only kind of corn that will pop.Today,most of the world's popcorn is grown in the United States.
Every popcorn kernel contains a tiny drop of water,surrounded by soft starch(淀粉).When the popcorn is heated,the water turns into steam.This puts pressure on the surrounding hard kernel,forcing it to explode.The soft starch increases about 40 times in size as the corn kernel turns itself inside out.
In the 1500s popcorn was an important food source for the Aztec Indians of central and southern Mexico.But it wasn't only food.It was also used in ceremonies or in headdresses and necklaces.By the time the Europeans arrived in America,popcorn had spread through most of the American Indians.
Some early American settlers ate popcorn with cream and sugar for breakfast.But it wasn't until the late 1800s that popcorn became popular.The demand for popcorn increased and farmers began farming popcorn.The first mobile popping machine was invented in 1885,and popcorn was sold by street sellers much like hot dogs are sold today.
During the Great Depression of the 1930s,the popcorn business still thrived as people could still afford it.Then in the 1950s television arrived and popcorn consumption decreased.People stayed home and stopped going to the theatre.But the link between movies and popcorn had already existed.Soon people began making popcorn at home on the stove.Later,microwave popcorn was introduced.
Today the movies have regained popularity and popcorn has once again become the favorite.

1.Popcorn was first planted in ______.
A.China B.America
C.India D.Mexico
解析 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第三句可知答案。
答案 D
2.Why does the corn kernel pop when heated?
A.Because it is covered with soft starch.
B.Because the pressure inside is too big.
C.Because the starch becomes bigger in size.
D.Because there is water inside the kernel.
解析 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第二、三兩句可知,玉米粒內(nèi)的水并不能直接導(dǎo)致它炸開,而是水蒸氣產(chǎn)生的壓力作用于四周堅(jiān)硬的內(nèi)核上,造成它爆炸。故答案選B。
答案 B
3.We can know from the passage that ______.
A.popcorn began to be farmed in the late 1800s
B.popcorn was only a kind of food in the 1500s
C.hot dogs used to be sold by street sellers
D.people stopped going to the movies without popcorn
解析 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第二、三兩句可知,是在19世紀(jì)末期,隨著人們對(duì)爆米花需求的增長(zhǎng),農(nóng)民們才開始種植這種玉米。
答案 A
4.The underlined word“thrived” in the fifth paragraph probably means “______ ”.
A.started to be popular
B.was seriously affected
C.suffered a lot
D.developed very well

We can choose our friends,but usually we cannot choose our neighbors.However,to get a happy home life,we have to get along with 1 as well as possible.
An important quality in a neighbor is consideration for 2 .People should not do things 3 will disturb their neighbors unnecessarily.For example,television sets need not be played at full volume (音量) 4 loud pop music should not be played very late at night.By avoiding things likely to upset your neighbors,you can enjoy 5 friendly relationship with them.
An equally important quality is tolerance.Neighbors should do all they can to avoid disturbing other people, 6 there are times when some level of disturbance is unavoidable. 7 neighbors want to get along well with each other,they have to show their tolerance.In this way,everyone will live 8 peace.
【語(yǔ)篇導(dǎo)讀】 我們可以選擇朋友,卻無(wú)法選擇鄰居;因此處理好鄰里關(guān)系至關(guān)重要。該篇文章主要說(shuō)明如何處理好鄰里關(guān)系。
1.them [根據(jù)句式結(jié)構(gòu)此處缺少get along with的賓語(yǔ),根據(jù)上下文句意所填詞匯應(yīng)是前文提到的neighbors,故用代詞them。]
2.others [根據(jù)句式結(jié)構(gòu)此處缺少介詞for的賓語(yǔ),應(yīng)填名詞或代詞,根據(jù)下文意思可以總結(jié)出“好鄰居的重要品質(zhì)是為他人著想”,故填others。]
3.that/which [分析結(jié)構(gòu)可知此句中需要填的是定語(yǔ)從句的引導(dǎo)詞,先行詞是things指物,在從句中做主語(yǔ),故用that/which。]
4.a(chǎn)nd [此處缺少連詞,根據(jù)句意可知上下文是并列加順延的關(guān)系,故用and。]
5.a(chǎn) [此處考查冠詞。relationship此處作可數(shù)名詞,且第一次出現(xiàn),用a。]
6.but [此處缺少連詞。根據(jù)語(yǔ)境:“鄰居們應(yīng)該盡其所能避免打攪別人,但有時(shí)一些攪擾是不可避免的”。此處上下文是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,故用but。]
7.If/When [此處缺少連詞。根據(jù)句意:“如果鄰居們想要和睦相處他們應(yīng)互相忍讓?!彼钤~匯應(yīng)能引導(dǎo)條件狀語(yǔ)或時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句,故用If或When。]
8.in [此處考查固定短語(yǔ)的介詞搭配。根據(jù)句意,這樣,大家都能和平共處,故用in,“in peace”和平地。]
(2016·河南省六市高三第一次聯(lián)考)Starting a new school term is always exciting.It is a chance __1__(see) your friends again.But most exciting of all,the new term lets you take up new hobbies.In Britain it is common for students to take up new hobbies after the Christmas holidays.Promising to learn something new is a common New Year’s resolution.

【語(yǔ)篇導(dǎo)讀】 本文介紹了作者參加興趣班的事。
1.to see [考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。chance后面跟動(dòng)詞不定式作后置定語(yǔ)。]
2.of [考查固定搭配。different kinds of各種不同種類的。]
3.usually [考查副詞。修飾后面的動(dòng)詞的應(yīng)該用副詞。]
4.a(chǎn)re [考查主謂一致。主語(yǔ)是some,代指前文提到的classes,所以謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)。]
5.which/that [考查定語(yǔ)從句。修飾前面的名詞class,先行詞在從句中作主語(yǔ)。]
6.more [考查形容詞比較級(jí)。后面有than,所以和比較級(jí)連用。]
7.skills [考查名詞。前面有many修飾,所以用復(fù)數(shù)形式。]
8.began [考查動(dòng)詞。我在學(xué)校里開始的愛好,是過(guò)去的事情,用過(guò)去時(shí)。]
9.them [考查代詞。但是我沒后悔過(guò)參加他們,此處用them代替前面的hobbies。]

There was once a tiny country that was suffering from a long drought.It had gone so long without rain that the people there were starting to go hungry because of the bad harvests.
It just so happened that a group of musicians were traveling the country,trying to make a living from their concerts.But with so many problems in the land,no one felt like listening to music.“But music can help overcome any problems,” said the musicians,without anyone paying them the slightest attention.
So the musicians tried to find out the reason it wouldn't rain.It was very strange,because the sky was overcast,but no one could provide an answer.
“It's been cloudy like this for many months,but not a single drop of rain has fallen,” people told them.
“Don't worry,we'll bring rain to the country,” the musicians responded,and they began rehearsing for a concert at the summit of the highest mountain.
Everyone who heard the music was seized by curiosity and went up the mountain.And the conductor of this strange orchestra gave the order,and the musicians began to play.
From their instruments came small,playful musical notes that rose and rose into the clouds.The music was so joyous,happy and fun,and the notes started playing with the clouds' soft,fluffy bellies,running here and there,up and down,and the whole sky turned into one big game of tickle torture.Before long,the giant clouds were thundering with laughter.
The musicians continued playing joyfully and a few minutes later the clouds,crying with laughter,soaked the little country below with their precious tears,bringing happiness to all.
And in memory of that musical rain,everyone in the country learned how to play an instrument and,taking turns,would go up the mountain every day to bring joy to the clouds with their beautiful songs.

The son of a piano producer,Elwyn Brooks White was born in Mount Vernon in a wealthy family.And he was raised with the mix of sophistication(高水平) and common sense that would mark his writing.
After graduation,Elwyn Brooks White spent a year as a newspaper reporter in New York City,and then decided to drive across the country with a friend.The trip gave Elwyn Brooks White a lifetime of anecdotes.“When they ran out of money,” Elwyn Brooks White's friend,James Thurber,noted,“they played for their supper and their gasoline on an interesting musical instrument that Elwyn Brooks White had made out of some pieces of wire and an old shoe.”
When Elwyn Brooks White returned to New York City in the mid-1920s,he spent a few years bouncing between advertising jobs and unemployment before trying his hand again at writing.Not very seriously,he sent some essays to a new magazine called The New Yorker.Since its founding in 1925,the magazine had struggled to find its_niche,and Elwyn Brooks White's work helped put The New Yorker on the map.His essays were funny and sophisticated;they spoke equally to socialites(社會(huì)名流) and cab drivers,professors and repairmen.Through his essays,which he wrote for nearly 50 years,Elwyn Brooks White helped give The New Yorker its voice and identity.
In 1945,already a leading literary figure,Elwyn Brooks White switched to his second occupation on writing children's books.He moved from New York to a farm in Maine,where he raised chickens and geese.Seeking a way to amuse his nieces and nephews,Elwyn Brooks White started to write stories for them.“Children were always after me to tell them a story and I found I couldn't do it,” he said.“So I had to get it down on paper.”
By the time he died from Alzheimer's disease in 1985,Elwyn Brooks White's essays had appeared in more literary collections in colleges than those of any other writer.Many said his essays matched his personality: sophisticated without being simple,critical without being mean.
