Typhoons (台风) are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September.
____31____ When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates (蒸发) into the air. This makes the air hotter. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into the sky. Then cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles and it keeps moving higher in the sky. ____32____ And when the wind moves faster than 30 metres a second, a typhoon begins.
A typhoon has two parts. One is called the “eye”. In the eye, the wind does not move so fast. ____33____ This is where the strongest winds and hardest rain are.
____34____ In November 2013, Typhoon Haiyan killed around 6,000 people in Philippines. More people were badly hurt and some others were missing.
____35____

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了台风的形成、结构、危害以及应对台风的措施。
【31题详解】
下文详细描述了台风形成的过程,如海水受热蒸发、空气上升、周围冷空气涌入等,所以此空应是询问台风是如何形成的;选项D“台风是怎么发生的?”符合语境。故选D。
【32题详解】
根据上文“After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles and it keeps moving higher in the sky.”和下文“And when the wind moves faster than 30 metres a second, a typhoon begins.”可知,前文提到空气变暖后开始快速移动形成风,风呈圆形运动且不断向天空更高处移动,后面又说当风速超过每秒30米时台风就形成了,那么此处需要描述空气变暖与风移动速度之间的关系;选项C“空气变得越热,风移动得越快。”符合语境。故选C。
【33题详解】
根据上文“A typhoon has two parts. One is called the ‘eye’.”可知,台风有两部分,一部分是“眼”,此处应该接着介绍另一部分;选项E“另一部分是围绕风眼的云墙。”符合语境。故选E。
【34题详解】
根据下文“In November 2013, Typhoon Haiyan killed around 6,000 people in Philippines.”可知,2013年台风海燕在菲律宾造成约6000人死亡,说明台风带来了严重危害,非常危险;选项B“台风非常危险。”符合语境。故选B。

36. 他们大声地为我们欢呼加油,我们感到更有信心赢得比赛了。
They cheer us on loudly and we feel ________ ________ to win the game.
【答案】 ①. more ②. confident
【解析】
【详解】结合中英文对照可知,设空处缺少表达“更有信心”,暗含比较级,feel后应接形容词作表语,此处应用形容词的比较级more confident表示“更加自信”。故填more;confident。
37. 村庄和农场越来越大,夺去了它们的土地和森林。
Villages and farms are growing bigger and are ________ ________ their land and forests.
【答案】 ①. taking ②. away
【解析】
【详解】对比所给中英文可知,设空处为“夺去”;take away“夺去”,是固定词组,句子时态为现在进行时,应用现在分词形式。故填taking;away。
38. 汽车及时停住了,但男孩却从自行车上摔了下来,伤了膝盖。
The car stopped just in time, but the boy ________ ________ his bike and hurt his knee.
【答案】 ①. fell ②. off

In Texas and the southeast, it is usually very hot and sunny ________ ________ other places.
【答案】 ①. compared ②. with
【解析】
【详解】对比中英文可知,空处缺少“与……相比”,其英文表达为compare with,动词短语;句子主语“it”与动词短语compare with是被动关系,所以用过去分词作状语。故填compared;with。
40. 贝蒂,这个建议如此好以至于你都可以当医生了!
That’s ________ good advice ________ you could be a doctor, Betty!
【答案】 ① such ②. that
【解析】
【详解】对比中英文可知,空处缺少“如此……以至于……”;句中“advice”为不可数名词,“good”是形容词修饰“advice”,此处应用“such+形容词+名词+that从句”结构。故填such;that。

It was my first time on a motorcycle, so I was a little afraid. The young man drove very fast. ②我太害怕而不敢睁开我的眼睛。 Suddenly, the motorcycle stopped. “Here we are, sir!” he said. I looked at my watch and there were only twenty minutes left. I was just in time for my train.

On the first day of the Spring Festival, don’t clean the house, or you may sweep away good luck. And please be careful not to break anything, as it’s believed to bring bad luck.

There will be lots of noise and fun. Families get together and eat big meals, so you might be invited to many dinner parties.

To stay healthy, it is important to choose the right foods during the dog days. Foods which are easy to digest (消化) and full of protein (蛋白质), are good choices, such as vegetables, chicken, eggs and peanuts. It’s better not to eat uncooked, cold or spicy (辛辣的) foods.
