专题08 完形填空（10空）（期末真题速递，15篇） （23-24九年级上·江苏南京·期末） I live on the coast with beautiful sandy beaches. It’s the perfect 1 for my favourite hobby—making sand sculptures. I’d never thought of making sand sculptures before 2 some fantastic ones appeared all along the beach. Beautiful buildings and lovely animals were all made of sand. From that moment, I knew that this was something I just had to do, though I’d never considered myself to be a(n) 3 . In fact, anyone can create a sand sculpture, but it’s much harder than it looks. The first sand sculpture I tried making was a two-metre long dolphin. I was making 4 on it until suddenly the head started to break off! I tried everything to 5 it, but it was hopeless. Soon the whole thing was a big pile of sand. Some people nearby seemed to think this was quite funny, but that just made me keep trying even 6 . I wished I’d listened to an expert (专家) on YouTube who recommends digging up 7 sand and to use it to build the sand sculptures because it sticks together better. So, I did that for my next sculpture of a camel. And I 8 to complete it in four hours, though it didn’t take me that long to make. People say that making sand castles is for kids, not adults, but that doesn’t bother (困扰) me at all. Many people don’t understand that even a 9 touch can make a sand sculpture fall off. Of course, heavy rain can do some damage (损坏), but not as much as you might think. If you build far enough up the beach, the sea water won’t 10 a sand sculpture away either. So, when you’re next at the seaside, make one yourself—you’ll get a great sense of achievement! 1．A．vacation B．situation C．location D．condition 2．A．unless B．because C．though D．until 3．A．swimmer B．artist C．director D．painter 4．A．mistakes B．promises C．trouble D．progress 5．A．fix B．mix C．change D．pull 6．A．faster B．longer C．harder D．later 7．A．wet B．dry C．soft D．tiny 8．A．refused B．preferred C．failed D．managed 9．A．heavy B．light C．rude D．quick 10．A．drive B．blow C．wash D．move 【答案】 1．C 2．D 3．B 4．D 5．A 6．C 7．A 8．D 9．B 10．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者对沙雕的喜爱，虽然制作沙雕非常耗时耗力，但当你制作成功的时候，你会有很大的成就感。 1．句意：这是我最喜欢的爱好——制作沙雕的完美位置。 vacation假期；situation处境；location地点，位置；condition情况。根据“I live on the coast with beautiful sandy beaches.”可知，此处是指我住的地方是制作沙雕的完美地点。故选C。 2．句意：我从来没有想过要做沙雕，直到沙滩上出现了一些奇妙的沙雕。 unless除非；because因为；though虽然；until直到。根据“never”可知，此处是指直到沙滩上出现了一些奇妙沙雕，才想到要做沙雕，用until引导时间状语从句。故选D。 3．句意：从那一刻起，我知道这是我必须要做的事情，尽管我从来没有认为自己是一个艺术家。 swimmer游泳者；artist艺术家；director导演；painter画家。根据“making sand sculptures”可知，是指艺术家。故选B。 4．句意：我正在取得进步，直到它的头突然开始断裂！ mistakes错误；promises承诺；trouble麻烦；progress进步。根据“until suddenly the head started to break off!”可知，在它的头断裂之前我一直在取得进步。故选D。 5．句意：我尝试了一切来修补，但是没有希望。 fix修补；mix混合；change改变；pull拉。根据“suddenly the head started to break off!”可知，作者尝试一切办法来修补沙雕。故选A。 6．句意：旁边的一些人似乎觉得这很有趣，但这只会让我更加努力地尝试。 faster更快的；longer更长的；harder更努力地；later更晚的。根据“keep trying even”可知，是指更加努力地尝试。故选C。 7．句意：我希望我听了YouTube上的专家的建议，他建议挖出湿沙子并用它来建造沙雕，因为它可以更好地粘在一起。 wet湿的；dry干燥的；soft柔软的；tiny微小的。根据“to use it to build the sand sculptures because it sticks together better.”可知，是指使用湿的沙子来制作沙雕，这样能够更好地粘在一起。故选A。 8．句意：我设法在四个小时内完成了它，虽然我并没有花那么长的时间来制作。 refused拒绝；preferred更喜爱；failed失败；managed设法做到。根据“though it didn’t take me that long to make.”可知，此处应是设法在四个小时内完成。故选D。 9．句意：很多人不明白，即使轻轻一碰，沙雕也会脱落。 heavy重的；light轻地；rude粗鲁的；quick快速的。根据“even a ... touch can make a sand sculpture fall off.”可知，是指甚至轻轻地触碰，也会使沙雕脱落。故选B。 10．句意：如果你在海滩上建得足够远，海水也不会把沙雕冲走。 drive驾驶；blow吹；wash冲洗；move移动。根据“If you build far enough up the beach”可知，在海滩上把沙雕制作地足够远，海水不会冲走沙雕。故选C。 （23-24九年级上·江苏南京·期末） Lead a healthier and more active life with the new Google Fit!

In fact, anyone can create a sand sculpture, but it’s much harder than it looks. The first sand sculpture I tried making was a two-metre long dolphin. I was making 4 on it until suddenly the head started to break off! I tried everything to 5 it, but it was hopeless. Soon the whole thing was a big pile of sand. Some people nearby seemed to think this was quite funny, but that just made me keep trying even 6 .
