We come across abbreviations (缩写形式) every day, in all kinds of places. In the US, which of course is an abbreviation for the United States, people call the space agency NASA, rather than the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Many abbreviations are so common that we say them without thinking. Some people feel they make talking, reading, and writing c____51____, but others find shortened words or phrases confusing. What do you think? Should we use abbreviations?
Yes-they simplify life
Language is changing all the time and has been ever since humans began to speak. If it didn’t d____52____, we would still be saying “thine” instead of “yours” and “thou” instead of “you”. Imagine that! Some abbreviations, like “GIF” or “FBI,” are so common and well-known that it would sound s____53____ to say them in full. Abbreviations can be used to make text and speech shorter, quicker, and simpler to understand. That’s u____54____ if you’re in a hurry-for example, typing “BRB” is much faster than writing “I’ll be right back.” Abbreviations are also a kind of common language that can help people feel comfortable and familiar with each other.
No-they’re confusing
Proper use of abbreviations can speed up your reading or writing. However, if abbreviations aren’t used c____55____ they can slow you down rather than speed things up. For example, if a word or phrase isn’t written out in full the first time it’s used in a piece of writing, the r____56____ may have to waste time looking it up in a dictionary. Abbreviations can also cause misunderstandings or make people feel left out or embarrassed. If you don’t know what an abbreviation m____57____, it’s awkward (令人尴尬的) to ask another person to explain it. And sure, language changes over time, but some changes aren’t for the better. Saying “ty” just isn’t as polite as saying “thank you,” is it? It just sounds lazy and, frankly, insincere.
【答案】51. (c)onvenient
52. (d)evelop
53 (s)trange
54. (u)seful
55. (c)orrectly
56. (r)eader
57. (m)eans
【解析】
【导语】本文阐述了日常使用缩写词的二种不同的看法。
【51题详解】
句意:有些人觉得它们可以使谈话、阅读和写作变得方便。根据上文“Many abbreviations are so common that we say them without thinking.”许多缩略语如此常见,以至于我们不假思索地说出它们;可知此处指“使用缩略词方便”;填convenient “方便的”。故填(c)onvenient。
【52题详解】
句意:如果它没有发展,我们仍然会说“thine”而不是“yours”和“thou”而不是“you”。根据下文“we would still be saying ‘thine’ instead of ‘yours’ and ‘thou’ instead of ‘you’”举例说明语言的发展,可知此处指“如果语言没有发展”;填develop “发展”,didn’t后接动词原形。故填(d)evelop。
【53题详解】
句意:想象一下!一些缩写词,如“GIF”或“FBI”,是如此常见和众所周知,以至于完整地说听起来很奇怪。根据上文“people call the space agency NASA, rather than the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.”人们称航天局为NASA,而不是美国国家航空航天局;可知此处指“常见和众所周知的缩略词,如果完整地说听起来很奇怪”;填strange“奇怪的”。故填(s)trange。
【54题详解】
句意:如果你很忙的话,这很有用。根据下文“typing ‘BRB’ is much faster than writing ‘I’ll be right back.’”输入 “BRB”比写“I’ll be right back”要快得多;可知此处指“忙时用缩略词很有用”;填useful “有用的”,形容词作表语。故填(u)seful。
【55题详解】
句意:但是,如果缩写词没有正确使用,它们会使你的速度减慢而不是加快。上文“Proper use of abbreviations can speed up your reading or writing”正确使用缩写词可以加快你的阅读或写作速度;根据“However,”可知此处引出相反的情况,指“如果缩写词没有正确使用,会使你的速度减慢而不是加快”;填correctly “正确地”,副词修饰动词。故填(c)orrectly。
【56题详解】
句意:例如,如果一个单词或短语在第一次用于写作时没有完整写出,那么读者可能不得不浪费时间在词典中查找它。根据“may have to waste time looking it up in a dictionary”可知此处指“读者可能不得不浪费时间在词典中查找它”;填reader “读者”,名词作主语。故填(r)eader。
【57题详解】
句意:如果你不知道缩写词的意思,请别人解释是很尴尬的。根据下文“it’s awkward to ask another person to explain it.”请别人解释;可知此处指“不知道缩写词的意思”;填mean “意思是”,句子问一般现在时,主语“an abbreviation”是单数名词,谓语动词用单三形式。故填(m)eans。

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)
In Paris, there was a highly regarded (备受推崇的) modern magazine. One day, this magazine published an interesting question. The question was as follows, “If one day the world-famous LouvreMuseum were suddenly caught in a fire, and under the extremely bad situation, only one piece of art could be rescued, which one would you choose?”
After the news spread, tens of thousands of letters from citizens poured into the magazine office. Among the many replies, two stood out. One was from an experienced old professor who was very famous in the art world. For him, every piece of the collection in the Louvre Museum was a perfect mix of history, culture and art. The other was a young man. He was full of life and talent with his unique thoughts and love for art.
The old professor wrote several pages explaining the reasons for his choice of a particular piece. However, when the editors saw the young man’s answer, they were surprised and touched by this simple yet intelligent answer. The young man’s answer was: choose the one closest to the door. This answer was like lightning cutting through the question, making people applaud (称赞).
Every piece of the collection in the Louvre is a unique treasure in the world. In such a moment, instead of wasting time thinking about difficult choices, it was better to take the chance and rescue just one piece if possible.
When a disaster happens, there isn’t enough time to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of each choice, even if each choice is extremely important. This idea of taking a chance and taking quick action applies to life and work.
58. What kind of magazine was mentioned in the story?
________________________________
59. Who did the two outstanding replies come from?
________________________________
60. What was the main difference between the two replies?
________________________________
61. Why did the editors find the young man’s answer surprising and touching?
________________________________
62. The story tells us to take quick action in face of difficulties, doesn’t it?
________________________________
63. Which of the two replies do you prefer? Give your reasons.
________________________________
【答案】58. A highly regarded modern magazine.
59. An experienced old professor and a young man.
60. The professor wrote several pages explaining his choice, while the young man simply said to choose the one closest to the door.
61. Because it was simple yet intelligent, cutting through the complexity of the question.
62. Yes, it does.
63. I prefer the young man’s reply because it demonstrates practical wisdom in emergency situations.(合理即可)
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了一个发人深省的故事:巴黎一本知名杂志提出“卢浮宫失火只能救一件艺术品该如何选择”的问题。
【58题详解】
根据“In Paris, there was a highly regarded modern magazine.”可知,这是一本备受推崇的现代杂志。故填A highly regarded modern magazine.
【59题详解】
根据“Among the many replies, two stood out. One was from an experienced old professor… The other was a young man.”可知,两个突出的回复分别来自一位老教授和一位年轻人。故填An experienced old professor and a young man.
【60题详解】
根据“The old professor wrote several pages…”和“the young man’s answer was: choose the one closest to the door”可知,两者的主要区别在于回答的复杂程度和思维方式,教授写了几页解释他的选择,而年轻人只是说选择离门最近的一个。故填The professor wrote several pages explaining his choice, while the young man simply said to choose the one closest to the door.
【61题详解】
根据“they were surprised and touched by this simple yet intelligent answer…This answer was like lightning cutting through the question, making people applaud (称赞).”可知,编辑们被这个简单却机智的回答所打动,这个答案就像闪电般穿透了这个问题,让人鼓掌。故填Because it was simple yet intelligent, cutting through the complexity of the question.
【62题详解】
根据“This idea of taking a chance and taking quick action applies to life and work.”可知,故事确实告诉我们要在困难面前快速行动。故填Yes, it does.
【63题详解】
开放题,合理即可。故填I prefer the young man’s reply because it demonstrates practical wisdom in emergency situations.

Dear Mr. Zhang,
I’m Lu Yao, a junior 3 student. I hope to get an opportunity to be a volunteer for Community Health Run.
I am a healthy and active boy who likes organizing group activities. In our class, I am in charge of organizing the morning reading every day. And the whole class speaks highly of my job. What’s more, I ever planned a singing contest for our class which turned out to be a great success.

In order to make sure the community run a complete success, I’ll ask my friends to help with the route and I am sure we’ll do it well.

But scientists have found that polar bear fur provides more than insulation (隔热).

Then they determined how much force was needed to remove the ice from each of these materials. Ice was ____49____ removed from the unwashed, greasy polar bear fur and the ski equipment. However, it was very hard to remove from the human hair and about four times harder to remove from the washed fur. After knowing for sure why the ice wasn’t sticking, the team carefully examined the oil itself. They found that it was full of chemicals that repel (排斥) ice.
