Fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺。每空格限填一词，首字母已给） Music is an i 1 part of our life. It can make us feel different emotions. Some people like pop music because it’s lively and easy to s 2 along with. Others prefer classical music for its elegance. Jazz has a special r 3 that makes people feel relaxed. Folk music often tells stories about a country’s c 4 and history. Music can also change people’s lives. Just like Kevin Blake, who overcame his s 5 through singing. It gave him c 6 and helped him find his voice. In addition, music is a great way of c 7 . We can share our feelings and ideas through songs. Different cultures have their own unique music styles, which can help us understand each other better. There are various ways we can help people in need. Big charity o 1 commonly deliver food to hungry people, build homes for the homeless, and volunteer at local charity centers. However, there is a new way to help poor people living in distance, and that is by giving money to them directly. Give-Directly gives the money to the poor families directly by using cell phones. When the family receives an SMS message, they can get the money from a n 2 mobile money agent. It has become an effective way to transfer the money over thousands of miles. Since 2012, the charity organization Give-Directly has been studying the e 3 of direct money support to poor Kenyans (肯尼亚人). The charity gives them a one-year budget (预算), spread over several months. They can spend the money on whatever they need, and they never have to pay it back! When Give-Directly tracked (追踪) how the money was being used, they were glad to find that the Kenyans were using the money p 4 . Many of the families spent the money on new metal roofs to take the place of their old grass roofs. While grass roofs need r 5 several times a year, metal roofs last longer and save money. Some bought land and cows for farming or started small businesses, such as buying a used motorcycle to transport people around like a taxi. This helped them to have more money for food, clothing and health care, and give their children an education. The studies on giving money directly to poor Kenyans are going on. Some people are worried that some of the families will w 6 the money or simply become dependent on these donations (捐助). Although it’s hard to tell if it is a good idea to give them direct money support, we can all agree that it is a c 7 way of helping others. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words. You might like to listen to music in your free time. What kind of music is your favourite? An experiment done by British workers found that listening to classical music at work can i 1 one’s efficiency (效率) by 15%. A survey of 2,000 British workers found that half of them listen to music when they are at work. Some of their bosses encourage them to do so, w 2 others are against it. They believe it has a bad influence on their work. British doctor Becky Spelman did an experiment to find out whether background music hurts or improves efficiency. In the experiment, four people were asked to copy two 600-word sets of song l 3 . The group of people worked on the first set with no music playing and then worked on the second set with classical music playing in the background. It took them about 20 minutes and 59 seconds to finish the first set. The time for the second set was 17 minutes and 42 seconds. “Classical music can work as a kind of white noise,” according to Spelman. “White noise is a mixture of s 4 with different frequencies (频率). It can help people pay more attention to what they are doing at that moment. A 5 , the classical music has a quiet and smooth beat, it can help us stay cool. This makes it easier for us to pay attention to what we’re doing,” Spelman said. Different people may find that different learning methods work best for them. While some would turn to tutoring in order to get better grades, others choose to join study groups. In fact, many universities encourage their students to form study groups and make good use of them.   “Two heads are better than one.” That’s the simple idea behind study groups. By j 1 a study group, students can benefit from some of their best academic resources: other students. They get to pick each other’s brains and improve their own understanding of different problems. Moreover, study groups can create the slightly tense atmosphere in which it’s good to study. For example, some students tend to procrastinate (拖延) when they are studying by t 2 . However, by joining a study group, they get to observe their peers who are working diligently and are likely to thus have motivation for working harder.   Study groups work best when they are small, but not too small—four to five participants is about right. And it’s necessary to make sure everyone has the s 3 goal, to prepare for a particular test, to discuss class readings or to review the week’s lecture notes. Besides, socializing in the group would make studying more fun as long as it took up only a small portion of group study time.   In a 4 , to maximize the efficiency, some study groups like to assign members certain roles, and thus efficiency will be promoted. Besides an organizer, w 5 gets group members to agree to a common purpose and a convenient time and place, there often is a group member playing the role of a source-seeker, whose duty is to remind group members to identify their sources. For instance, when a group member says “I read somewhere that...,” the source-seeker should ask for specifics. This person reminds the group that it’s important to know who said what and where it was said. And a gatekeeper, who tries to make sure that all group members are participating, may ask a direct question to help a shy person participate, or find a way to get a dominating member to listen. I was in New York and rode with a friend in a taxi. When we got out, my friend said to the driver, “Thank you. You did a good job of driving.” The driver was surprised for a second. “I admire the way you keep cool in h 1 traffic,” my friend said. “Thank you,” the driver said and drove off. “What was that all about?” I asked. “I am trying to bring w 2 back to New York,” he said. “I believe it can save the city.” “How can one man save New York?” “It’s not one man. The driver will be nice to 20 people i 3 he has 20 passengers in the following day, just because someone was nice to him. Those people in turn will be kinder to their employees, or shopkeepers, or waiters, or their own families. “It sounds good,” I said, “but I’m not sure whether it would w 4 in practice.” “N 5 is lost even though it doesn’t. It didn’t take any of my time or money to tell that man he was doing a good job. I have made a study of this. The thing that seems to be lacking for the postal employees is that no one tells the people who work for the post office what a good job they’re doing,” he said. “But a 6 they’re not doing a good job,” I said. “They’re not doing a good job in reality, because they feel that nobody c 7 whether they do a good job or not. Why not say a kind word to them? When those people hear my words, they will feel better. The city will then benefit from their happiness.” he said. 试卷第10页，共10页 试卷第9页，共10页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 专题07 首字母填空20篇 （紧贴新教材单元主题，押题预测） 根据首字母提示完成短文填空。 If someone says “give me five” to you, don’t look for five yuan for him or her in your wallet (钱包)!

Big charity o 1 commonly deliver food to hungry people, build homes for the homeless, and volunteer at local charity centers. However, there is a new way to help poor people living in distance, and that is by giving money to them directly. Give-Directly gives the money to the poor families directly by using cell phones. When the family receives an SMS message, they can get the money from a n 2 mobile money agent. It has become an effective way to transfer the money over thousands of miles. Since 2012, the charity organization Give-Directly has been studying the e 3 of direct money support to poor Kenyans (肯尼亚人). The charity gives them a one-year budget (预算), spread over several months. They can spend the money on whatever they need, and they never have to pay it back! When Give-Directly tracked (追踪) how the money was being used, they were glad to find that the Kenyans were using the money p 4 . Many of the families spent the money on new metal roofs to take the place of their old grass roofs. While grass roofs need r 5 several times a year, metal roofs last longer and save money. Some bought land and cows for farming or started small businesses, such as buying a used motorcycle to transport people around like a taxi. This helped them to have more money for food, clothing and health care, and give their children an education. The studies on giving money directly to poor Kenyans are going on. Some people are worried that some of the families will w 6 the money or simply become dependent on these donations (捐助). Although it’s hard to tell if it is a good idea to give them direct money support, we can all agree that it is a c 7 way of helping others. 【答案】1．(o)rganizations 2．(n)earby 3．(e)ffects 4．(p)roperly 5．(r)epairs 6．(w)aste 7．(c)orrect 【导语】文本是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了直接经济援助这一新的慈善方式，并探讨了其效果和可能的争议。 1．句意：大型慈善组织通常会向饥饿的人提供食物，为无家可归的人建造房屋，并在当地慈善中心做志愿者。根据下文“the charity organization”和首字母“o”提示可知，此处是指大型慈善组织；考查organization“组织”，名词；再根据谓语动词“deliver”可知，这里应用名词的复数形式organizations。故填(o)rganizations。 2．句意：当这些家庭收到短信时，他们可以从附近的移动支付代理商那里领到钱。根据“get the money”和首字母“n”可知，此处是指通过手机接收信息，然后从附近的代理商那里取钱；考查nearby“附近的”，形容词，在句中作定语，修饰“mobile money agent”。故填(n)earby。 3．句意：自2012年以来，慈善组织Give-Directly一直在研究直接向肯尼亚穷人提供资金支持的影响。根据“studying the … of direct money support to poor Kenyans”和首字母“e”提示可知，此处是指研究直接向肯尼亚穷人提供资金支持的影响；考查effect“作用，效果，影响”，这里应用名词复数形式effects表示直接经济援助对肯尼亚贫困人群可能产生的多方面的影响。故填(e)ffects。 4．句意：当Give-Directly追踪这些钱款的用途时，他们很高兴地发现肯尼亚人正在善用这些钱。根据空前“glad”、首字母“p”以及下文“Many of the families spent the money on new metal roofs to take the place of their old grass roofs.”可知，许多家庭用这些钱买了新的金属屋顶来替换他们旧的草屋顶，所以此处是指人们高兴地发现这些钱正在被正确地使用；考查properly“正确地，适当地”，副词，在句中作状语，修饰动词“using”。故填(p)roperly。 5．句意：草屋顶一年需要修缮几次，而金属屋顶寿命更长，也更省钱。根据“grass roofs need … several times a year”和首字母“r”提示可知，草屋顶由于材质的原因，可能更容易受到天气、动物活动或其他因素的影响而损坏，因此需要定期进行修复以保持其完整性和功能性；考查repair“修理”，可数名词；再根据“several times a year”可知，这里是指进行多次的修理，所以用名词复数形式repairs。故填(r)epairs。 6．句意：有些人担心一些家庭会浪费这些钱，或者变得仅依赖这些捐助过活。根据“Some people are worried”和首字母“w”提示可知，此处是指有些人担心一些家庭会浪费钱；考查waste“浪费”，动词；空前有“will”，这里应用动词原形。故填(w)aste。 7．句意：尽管很难判断直接提供金钱援助是否是好方法，但我们都认同这是一种帮助他人的正确方式。根据语境和首字母“c”提示可知，与提供食物、衣物或建造房屋等传统援助方式相比，直接经济援助可能更加灵活、高效，能够更直接地满足受助者的需求，所以此处是指直接经济援助是一种正确的助人方式；考查correct“正确的”，形容词，在句中作定语，修饰名词“way”。故填(c)orrect。 Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words. You might like to listen to music in your free time. What kind of music is your favourite? An experiment done by British workers found that listening to classical music at work can i 1 one’s efficiency (效率) by 15%. A survey of 2,000 British workers found that half of them listen to music when they are at work. Some of their bosses encourage them to do so, w 2 others are against it. They believe it has a bad influence on their work. British doctor Becky Spelman did an experiment to find out whether background music hurts or improves efficiency. In the experiment, four people were asked to copy two 600-word sets of song l 3 . The group of people worked on the first set with no music playing and then worked on the second set with classical music playing in the background. It took them about 20 minutes and 59 seconds to finish the first set. The time for the second set was 17 minutes and 42 seconds. “Classical music can work as a kind of white noise,” according to Spelman. “White noise is a mixture of s 4 with different frequencies (频率). It can help people pay more attention to what they are doing at that moment. A 5 , the classical music has a quiet and smooth beat, it can help us stay cool. This makes it easier for us to pay attention to what we’re doing,” Spelman said. 【答案】1．(i)mprove 2．(w)hile 3．(l)yrics 4．(s)ounds 5．(A)dditionally/(A)lso 【导语】本文介绍了英国工人通过实验发现，在工作时听古典音乐可以提高工作效率。 1．句意：英国工人的一项实验发现，工作时听古典音乐可以提高15%的效率。根据“can i… one’s efficiency by 15%”可知，是指提高工作效率，improve“提高”，can后接动词原形，故填(i)mprove。 2．句意：一些老板鼓励员工工作时听音乐，而另一些人则反对。根据“Some of their bosses encourage them to do so, w… others are against it”可知，此处表示转折，while“而”符合，故填(w)hile。 3．句意：在实验中，四个人被要求抄写两套600字的歌词。根据“copy two 600-word sets of song l…”可知，此处指“歌词”，lyric“歌词”，可数名词，此处用复数形式，故填(l)yrics。 4．句意：白噪声是不同频率声音的混合。根据“White noise is a mixture of s… with different frequencies”可知，此处是不同的“声音”混合，sound“声音”，此处指不同的声音，用复数形式，故填(s)ounds。 5．句意：此外，古典音乐节奏安静平稳，能帮助我们保持冷静。根据“A…, the classical music has a quiet and smooth beat”可知，此处继续说明古典音乐的好处，根据首字母可知additionally/also“此外”符合语境，故填(A)dditionally/(A)lso。 Different people may find that different learning methods work best for them. While some would turn to tutoring in order to get better grades, others choose to join study groups. In fact, many universities encourage their students to form study groups and make good use of them.   “Two heads are better than one.” That’s the simple idea behind study groups. By j 1 a study group, students can benefit from some of their best academic resources: other students. They get to pick each other’s brains and improve their own understanding of different problems. Moreover, study groups can create the slightly tense atmosphere in which it’s good to study. For example, some students tend to procrastinate (拖延) when they are studying by t 2 . However, by joining a study group, they get to observe their peers who are working diligently and are likely to thus have motivation for working harder.   Study groups work best when they are small, but not too small—four to five participants is about right. And it’s necessary to make sure everyone has the s 3 goal, to prepare for a particular test, to discuss class readings or to review the week’s lecture notes. Besides, socializing in the group would make studying more fun as long as it took up only a small portion of group study time.   In a 4 , to maximize the efficiency, some study groups like to assign members certain roles, and thus efficiency will be promoted. Besides an organizer, w 5 gets group members to agree to a common purpose and a convenient time and place, there often is a group member playing the role of a source-seeker, whose duty is to remind group members to identify their sources. For instance, when a group member says “I read somewhere that...,” the source-seeker should ask for specifics. This person reminds the group that it’s important to know who said what and where it was said. And a gatekeeper, who tries to make sure that all group members are participating, may ask a direct question to help a shy person participate, or find a way to get a dominating member to listen. 【答案】1．(j)oining 2．(t)hemselves 3．(s)ame 4．(a)ddition 5．(w)ho 【导语】本文主要讲述了许多大学鼓励学生加入学习小组，列举了加入学习小组的好处，并介绍了成员在小组中扮演的角色及其职责。 1．句意：通过加入学习小组，学生可以从他们最好的学术资源中受益：其他学生。结合首字母提示和“a study group”可知，此处表示加入学习小组，动词join意为“加入”，空前的By是介词，其后接动词-ing形式，所以join要变成动词-ing形式joining。故填(j)oining。 2．句意：例如，一些学生独自学习时容易拖延。根据“when they are studying by...”可知，本题考查短语by oneself“独自”，主语是they，空格处应用反身代词themselves“他们自己”指代主语they本身。故填(t)hemselves。 3．句意：而且有必要确保每个人都有相同的目标：准备一场特殊的考试，讨论课堂阅读材料或复习一周的课堂笔记。根据常识可知，学习小组应该拥有相同的目标，形容词same“相同的”符合语境。故填(s)ame。 4．句意：此外，为了最大限度地提高效率，一些学习小组喜欢给成员分配某些角色，从而提高效率。结合首字母提示和空前的In可知，本题考查短语in addition“此外”。故填(a)ddition。 5．句意：除了一个让小组成员同意一个共同的目的以及一个方便的时间和地点的组织者，常常还有一个小组成员扮演着探源者的角色，他的职责是提醒小组成员识别他们信息的来源。分析“Besides an organizer...gets group members to agree to a common purpose and a convenient time and place”可知，此句包含定语从句，空格处是定语从句的引导词，先行词是organizer，指人，结合首字母提示可知，空格处应填who引导此定语从句。故填(w)ho。 I was in New York and rode with a friend in a taxi.
