Back in 1958, I was crazy about the Norfolk and Western 746. The smooth bullet-nose engine with its orange and yellow lines and shiny streamlined black tender (车厢) seemed to have cast a spell on me.
Together the engine and tender measured a little shy of 2 feet — enormous by the toy train standards of the day. Even better, the 746 had a working headlight and smoker, and its tender sang high.
Unfortunately, the amazing 746 also had an amazing price — $50, equal to about $450 today. That was far more than my grandfather could afford. Instead, I had to be content with his little Lionel plastic, which was SIX INCHES shorter than the 746 and had no headlight, no smoker or no sound! But that was the best that my grandfather could give me at that time.
Years passed, and I was in my 30s. Superior sound systems and computer controls dominated toy trains. I never gave a look. My interest in toy trains, I firmly believed, had faded, so did my admiration for the 746, since my grandfather was not with me. The 746 was never called to mind. On an ordinary day, however, I happened to see the 746 outside the window of a train show. Just one-look, I could not look away. Childhood memories that I tried to hide in the depths of my heart raced through my mind, happy or sad.
That day I took the 746 home and placed it in the center of the room, and let my childhood dream sing its way around me. Smoke rose out from the engine and the soft song sounded from its tender. It seemed as if I could see the soft light in grandfather's eyes and hear his cheerful laughter.
4. Which best describes the 746 in the author’s eyes?
A. Its beauty had a special appeal. B. It was the largest train in 1958.
C. Its price rocketed from $50 to $450. D. Its measurement was at a disadvantage.
5. How did the author feel when receiving his little Lionel plastic?
A. Visibly relieved. B. Terribly ashamed.
C. Really delighted. D. Slightly discontented.
6. What happened to the author in his 30s?
A. He left his grandfather alone. B. He didn’t favor the 746 at all.
C. He admired advanced toy trains. D. He attempted not to recall the past.
7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Toy Trains: Childhood in History B. The 746: Childhood Memories of Love
C. Toy Trains: Memories of A Generation D. The 746: A Perfect Gift from My Grandfather
C
Public health data signals a genuine crisis in adolescent mental health: rising rates of anxiety, depression, and hopelessness. But as we worry about teens who are struggling, we can’t ignore another mounting effect — the burdens that are shouldered by their friends and peers in an “always on” world.
We have studied teens and tech for over a decade. Their networks are ever-expanding, in no small part because there’s a sense that being nice means accepting fellow requests from acquaintances and friends-of-friends. And it’s not just staying connected — it’s keeping up with what others post, too.
Social media platforms thus make it technically possible to maintain more relationships than we are historically actually wired to track and manage. The result is an overwhelming wave of social information. It’s especially intense for adolescents whose developmental sensitivities drive them to care deeply about what their peers are doing and thinking.
Significant stress comes with trying to be a “good friend” in the age of social media. Friendship requires both public and behind-the-scenes support. Even before a social media post is made public, close friends can be pulled into photo selection, editing, and final examination. Besides, they need to respond in the right way and in the right amount of time, which differs from one relationship to another. Replying too quickly can be seen as over-eager, especially when the friendship is new or not close. But when it’s a close friend, too long a lag (延迟) can be hurtful.
The qualities that are key to building or breaking friendships are actually the same as they’ve always been: mutual (相互的) sharing of joys and sorrows, a give and take of acceptance and support, and an ability to weather and resolve conflicts. But technologies have transformed how friendships play out. Social media increases the burdens that come along with being a good friend. Too often, these dynamics hit teens hard in ways that are ignored by adults. And that is what should be changed with the help of parents, schools and other parts of society.
8. What makes teenagers' networks continue to expand?
A. The pressure to be nice. B. The requests of their parents.
C. The need to meet more people. D. The burden of living independently.
9. What does the author think of being a good friend in the age of social media?
A. Risk-taking. B. Time-saving. C. Challenging. D. Exciting.
10. What should be changed according to the last paragraph?
A. The influences of social media on teen friendship.
B. The relations between parents and their teens.
C. The conflicts between schools and parents.
D. The qualities of being a teen friend.
11. What is the text mainly about?
A. What makes teens become more sensitive to their peers' needs.
B. How social media has made teen friendships more stressful.
C. How teens nowadays gain long-standing friendships.
D. Why more teens are addicted to social media.
D
In the animal kingdom, killer whales (虎鲸) are social stars: they travel in different family groups, care for grandchildren, and even imitate human speech. Now, scientists are adding one more behavior to the list: forming fast friendships. A new study shows killer whales can rival animals such as chimpanzees and macaques (a kind of monkey), and even humans when it comes to the kind of “social touch” that is a sign of strong friendship.
Some ocean animals maintain social structures — including male dolphins (海豚) that learn the “names” of their close friends. But there is little proof about wild killer whales. That’s where drone (无人机) technology came in. Michael Weiss, a behavioral ecologist, teamed up with his workmates to launch drones, flying them 30 to 120 meters above a group of killer whales. That was high enough not to trouble the whales, marking the first time drones have been used to study friendly physical contact in whales.
The researchers recorded over 800 examples of physical contact between individuals. Those included slippery hugs, back-to-back and nose-to-nose touches between pairs of whales. Other whales playfully threw young whales into the air, letting them fall into the water. Besides, the drone pictures showed clear preferences among individuals, usually for one “best friend” of the same sex and age. Take J49 and J51 — two distantly related young males aged 9 and 6 — for example. “Every time you see a group of whales, those two are right there communicating with each other,” Weiss says.
The young led most of these interactions, rather than the older females or males. Older males in particular were less important. “The young individuals really seem to be the glue (胶水) holding the groups together, Weiss says. As individuals age, this gradual loss of “centrality” is known in many social mammals, including humans. That finding is “especially appealing” to biological anthropologist Stacey Tecot, who didn’t join in the study. “Scientists have long observed this social aging trend in animals, but there are still many unanswered questions,” she says. That certainly on the researchers’ radar. “We’re already gathering new proofs, with more advanced equipment,” says Weiss.
12. What does the underlined word “rival” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Rise to. B. Be equal to. C. Benefit from. D. Depend on.
13. What is new about Weiss’ research?
A. The research method. B. The size of the research team.
C. The target of the research. D. The time spent on the research.
14. What did Weiss find about J49 and J51?
A. They have a long-lasting friendship.
B. Their communication is difficult to understand.
C. Their communicating ways change frequently.
D. They prefer playing with young female whales.
15. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. More researchers will take part in the study.
B. Other scientists take a negative attitude to the research.
C. Researchers will get more proofs to study killer whales.
D. Researchers will uncover the social aging trend in animals soon.

Back in 1958, I was crazy about the Norfolk and Western 746. The smooth bullet-nose engine with its orange and yellow lines and shiny streamlined black tender (车厢) seemed to have cast a spell on me.
Together the engine and tender measured a little shy of 2 feet — enormous by the toy train standards of the day. Even better, the 746 had a working headlight and smoker, and its tender sang high.
Unfortunately, the amazing 746 also had an amazing price — $50, equal to about $450 today. That was far more than my grandfather could afford. Instead, I had to be content with his little Lionel plastic, which was SIX INCHES shorter than the 746 and had no headlight, no smoker or no sound! But that was the best that my grandfather could give me at that time.
Years passed, and I was in my 30s. Superior sound systems and computer controls dominated toy trains. I never gave a look. My interest in toy trains, I firmly believed, had faded, so did my admiration for the 746, since my grandfather was not with me. The 746 was never called to mind. On an ordinary day, however, I happened to see the 746 outside the window of a train show. Just one-look, I could not look away. Childhood memories that I tried to hide in the depths of my heart raced through my mind, happy or sad.
That day I took the 746 home and placed it in the center of the room, and let my childhood dream sing its way around me. Smoke rose out from the engine and the soft song sounded from its tender. It seemed as if I could see the soft light in grandfather's eyes and hear his cheerful laughter.
4. Which best describes the 746 in the author’s eyes?
A. Its beauty had a special appeal. B. It was the largest train in 1958.
C. Its price rocketed from $50 to $450. D. Its measurement was at a disadvantage.
5. How did the author feel when receiving his little Lionel plastic?
A. Visibly relieved. B. Terribly ashamed.
C. Really delighted. D. Slightly discontented.
6. What happened to the author in his 30s?
A. He left his grandfather alone. B. He didn’t favor the 746 at all.
C. He admired advanced toy trains. D. He attempted not to recall the past.
7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Toy Trains: Childhood in History B. The 746: Childhood Memories of Love
C. Toy Trains: Memories of A Generation D. The 746: A Perfect Gift from My Grandfather
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. D 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过对作者自年少时到成年后对一辆玩具火车情感变化的描述,表达了作者对祖父的思念之情。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第一段“The smooth bullet-nose engine with its orange and yellow lines and shiny streamlined black tender (车厢) seemed to have cast a spell on me. (光滑的子弹头发动机,橙色和黄色的线条,闪亮的流线型黑色发动机似乎对我下了魔咒)”和第二段“Together the engine and tender measured a little shy of 2 feet — enormous by the toy train standards of the day. Even better, the 746 had a working headlight and smoker, and its tender sang high. (发动机和车厢加在一起差不多有2英尺——按照当时的玩具火车标准,这是巨大的。更好的是,746有一个工作的前灯和吸烟,火车声音响亮)”可知,作者对746玩具火车非常迷恋,认为它非常完美,无以伦比,它的美丽有一种特殊的吸引力。故选A。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Instead, I had to be content with his little Lionel plastic, which was SIX INCHES shorter than the 746 and had no headlight, no smoker or no sound! (相反,我不得不满足于他的小Lionel塑料,它比746短6英寸,没有前灯,没有烟头,也没有声音!)”可推知,在作者看来,这个小Lionel塑料和746相比差得太多,所以稍微有点不满意。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Superior sound systems and computer controls dominated toy trains. I never gave a look. My interest in toy trains, I firmly believed, had faded, nor did my admiration for the 746, since my grandfather was not with me. The 746 was never called to mind. (先进的音响系统和电脑控制主导了玩具火车。我根本没看它一眼。我坚信,自从祖父不在我身边,我对玩具火车的兴趣已经消退,我对746的倾慕也没有了,我再也没有想起746)”可推知,作者30多岁时,因为祖父不在了,所以他尽量不去回忆过去。故选 D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“It seemed as if I could see the soft light in grandfather's eyes and hear his cheerful laughter. (我仿佛能看到祖父眼中柔和的光芒,听到他欢快的笑声)”和全文内容可知,文章以746火车玩具为主线,通过对作者自年少时到成年后对它情感变化的描述,表达了作者对童年时期祖父的爱的怀念。由此可知,“746:童年的爱的回忆”适合作为文章标题。故选B。
C
Public health data signals a genuine crisis in adolescent mental health: rising rates of anxiety, depression, and hopelessness. But as we worry about teens who are struggling, we can’t ignore another mounting effect — the burdens that are shouldered by their friends and peers in an “always on” world.
We have studied teens and tech for over a decade. Their networks are ever-expanding, in no small part because there’s a sense that being nice means accepting fellow requests from acquaintances and friends-of-friends. And it’s not just staying connected — it’s keeping up with what others post, too.
Social media platforms thus make it technically possible to maintain more relationships than we are historically actually wired to track and manage. The result is an overwhelming wave of social information. It’s especially intense for adolescents whose developmental sensitivities drive them to care deeply about what their peers are doing and thinking.
Significant stress comes with trying to be a “good friend” in the age of social media. Friendship requires both public and behind-the-scenes support. Even before a social media post is made public, close friends can be pulled into photo selection, editing, and final examination. Besides, they need to respond in the right way and in the right amount of time, which differs from one relationship to another. Replying too quickly can be seen as over-eager, especially when the friendship is new or not close. But when it’s a close friend, too long a lag (延迟) can be hurtful.
The qualities that are key to building or breaking friendships are actually the same as they’ve always been: mutual (相互的) sharing of joys and sorrows, a give and take of acceptance and support, and an ability to weather and resolve conflicts. But technologies have transformed how friendships play out. Social media increases the burdens that come along with being a good friend. Too often, these dynamics hit teens hard in ways that are ignored by adults. And that is what should be changed with the help of parents, schools and other parts of society.
8. What makes teenagers' networks continue to expand?
A. The pressure to be nice. B. The requests of their parents.
C. The need to meet more people. D. The burden of living independently.
9. What does the author think of being a good friend in the age of social media?
A. Risk-taking. B. Time-saving. C. Challenging. D. Exciting.
10. What should be changed according to the last paragraph?
A. The influences of social media on teen friendship.
B. The relations between parents and their teens.
C. The conflicts between schools and parents.
D. The qualities of being a teen friend.
11. What is the text mainly about?
A. What makes teens become more sensitive to their peers' needs.
B. How social media has made teen friendships more stressful.
C. How teens nowadays gain long-standing friendships.
D. Why more teens are addicted to social media.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲的是社交媒体是如何让青少年的友谊变得更紧张的。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Their networks are ever-expanding, in no small part because there’s a sense that being nice means accepting fellow requests from acquaintances and friends-of-friends.(他们的社交网络不断扩大,很大程度上是因为他们觉得友善意味着接受来自熟人和朋友的朋友的请求)”可知,让青少年的社交网络不断扩大的是友善的压力。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Significant stress comes with trying to be a “good friend” in the age of social media. Friendship requires both public and behind-the-scenes support. Even before a social media post is made public, close friends can be pulled into photo selection, editing, and final examination. Besides, they need to respond in the right way and in the right amount of time, which differs from one relationship to another.(在社交媒体时代,试图成为“好朋友”会带来巨大的压力。友谊需要公开和幕后的支持。甚至在社交媒体帖子被公开之前,亲密的朋友就可以参与照片的选择、编辑和最终检查。此外,他们需要以正确的方式和适当的时间做出回应,这在不同的关系中是不同的)”可知,在社交媒体时代做一个好朋友是具有挑战性的。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“But technologies have transformed how friendships play out. Social media increases the burdens that come along with being a good friend. Too often, these dynamics hit teens hard in ways that are ignored by adults. And that is what should be changed with the help of parents, schools and other parts of society.(但科技已经改变了友谊的发展方式。社交媒体增加了成为好朋友的负担。通常情况下,这些动态以被成年人忽视的方式对青少年造成了沉重的打击。在家长、学校和社会其他方面的帮助下,这种情况应该得到改变)”可知,根据最后一段,应该改变的是社交媒体对青少年友谊的影响。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段的“But as we worry about teens who are struggling, we can’t ignore another mounting effect — the burdens that are shouldered by their friends and peers in an “always on” world.(但是,当我们担心那些正在挣扎的青少年时,我们不能忽视另一个日益严重的影响——在一个“永远在线”的世界里,他们的朋友和同龄人所承担的负担)”结合文章主要讲的是社交媒体是如何让青少年的友谊变得更紧张的。可知,本文主要讲的是社交媒体是如何让青少年的友谊变得更紧张的,故选B。

In the animal kingdom, killer whales (虎鲸) are social stars: they travel in different family groups, care for grandchildren, and even imitate human speech. Now, scientists are adding one more behavior to the list: forming fast friendships. A new study shows killer whales can rival animals such as chimpanzees and macaques (a kind of monkey), and even humans when it comes to the kind of “social touch” that is a sign of strong friendship.
Some ocean animals maintain social structures — including male dolphins (海豚) that learn the “names” of their close friends. But there is little proof about wild killer whales. That’s where drone (无人机) technology came in. Michael Weiss, a behavioral ecologist, teamed up with his workmates to launch drones, flying them 30 to 120 meters above a group of killer whales. That was high enough not to trouble the whales, marking the first time drones have been used to study friendly physical contact in whales.
The researchers recorded over 800 examples of physical contact between individuals. Those included slippery hugs, back-to-back and nose-to-nose touches between pairs of whales. Other whales playfully threw young whales into the air, letting them fall into the water. Besides, the drone pictures showed clear preferences among individuals, usually for one “best friend” of the same sex and age. Take J49 and J51 — two distantly related young males aged 9 and 6 — for example. “Every time you see a group of whales, those two are right there communicating with each other,” Weiss says.
The young led most of these interactions, rather than the older females or males. Older males in particular were less important. “The young individuals really seem to be the glue (胶水) holding the groups together, Weiss says. As individuals age, this gradual loss of “centrality” is known in many social mammals, including humans. That finding is “especially appealing” to biological anthropologist Stacey Tecot, who didn’t join in the study. “Scientists have long observed this social aging trend in animals, but there are still many unanswered questions,” she says. That certainly on the researchers’ radar. “We’re already gathering new proofs, with more advanced equipment,” says Weiss.
12. What does the underlined word “rival” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Rise to. B. Be equal to. C. Benefit from. D. Depend on.
13. What is new about Weiss’ research?
A. The research method. B. The size of the research team.
C. The target of the research. D. The time spent on the research.
14. What did Weiss find about J49 and J51?
A. They have a long-lasting friendship.
B. Their communication is difficult to understand.
C. Their communicating ways change frequently.
D. They prefer playing with young female whales.
15. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. More researchers will take part in the study.
B. Other scientists take a negative attitude to the research.
C. Researchers will get more proofs to study killer whales.
D. Researchers will uncover the social aging trend in animals soon.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. A 15. C

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了科学家对虎鲸社交行为的新发现,特别是它们能够快速建立友谊的行为,并使用了无人机技术进行研究。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“In the animal kingdom, killer whales (虎鲸) are social stars: they travel in different family groups, care for grandchildren, and even imitate human speech.(在动物界中,虎鲸是社交明星:它们以不同的家族群体出游,照顾孙辈,甚至模仿人类语言。)”可知,虎鲸是社交明星,有高度的社交能力和行为。划线单词所在句“A new study shows killer whales can rival animals such as chimpanzees and macaques (a kind of monkey), and even humans when it comes to the kind of “social touch” that is a sign of strong friendship.(一项新的研究表明,在表示深厚友谊的‘社交接触’方面,虎鲸可以与黑猩猩、猕猴甚至人类_____” ),根据上文所提到的虎鲸的社交能力和行为,所以这里应该是指虎鲸在这方面的能力与黑猩猩、猕猴甚至人类相匹敌,因此“rival”的意思应该是“与……相匹敌”。选项B“Be equal to.(等于、与……相匹敌)”与此相符。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“But there is little proof about wild killer whales. That’s where drone (无人机) technology came in. Michael Weiss, a behavioral ecologist, teamed up with his workmates to launch drones, flying them 30 to 120 meters above a group of killer whales. That was high enough not to trouble the whales, marking the first time drones have been used to study friendly physical contact in whales.(但关于野生虎鲸的社交行为,几乎没有证据。这时,无人机技术派上了用场。行为生态学家Michael Weiss与同事合作,放飞无人机,在距离一群虎鲸30至120米的高空飞行。这个高度足够高,不会干扰到虎鲸,也是首次使用无人机来研究鲸鱼的友好身体接触。)”可知,Michael Weiss的研究新在研究方法上。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Take J49 and J51 — two distantly related young males aged 9 and 6 — for example. “Every time you see a group of whales, those two are right there communicating with each other,” Weiss says.(以J49和J51为例,它们是两个血缘关系较远的年轻雄性,分别为9岁和6岁。“每次你看到一群鲸鱼时,它们两个都在那里互相交流,”Weiss说。)”可知,J49和J51每次看到一群鲸鱼时都会互相交流,说明它们之间有长久的友谊。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““Scientists have long observed this social aging trend in animals, but there are still many unanswered questions,” she says. That certainly on the researchers’ radar. “We’re already gathering new proofs, with more advanced equipment,” says Weiss.(“科学家们长期以来一直在观察动物中的这种社交老化趋势,但仍有许多未解之谜,”她说。这肯定在研究人员的研究范围内。“我们正在用更先进的设备收集新的证据,”Weiss说。)”可知,研究者们希望有更多的数据来进行研究,也就是研究者们将获得更多证据来研究虎鲸。故选C。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了中国国庆节的由来、庆祝活动及节日出行建议。
【36题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:1949年10月1日,天安门广场举行了盛大的开国大典。根据时间状语“On October 1st, 1949”可知,句子描述的是过去的事情,应用一般过去时,take的过去式为took。故填took。
【37题详解】
考查介词。句意:从那时起,每年的10月1日都作为一个盛大的全国性节日来庆祝。根据句意及空后“a great national festival”可知,此处表示“作为”,应用介词as,be celebrated as意为“作为……被庆祝”。故填as。
【38题详解】
考查连词。句意:五星红旗飘扬,社交媒体上充满祝福。“Five-star red flags are fluttering”与“social media is filled with blessings”是并列关系,应用连词and连接。故填and。
【39题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意:此外,还会组织一些重要的活动。句子描述每年国庆节的常规安排,应用一般现在时,且主语activities与动词organize之间为被动关系,应用一般现在时的被动语态,主语为复数,be动词用are。故填are organized。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:天安门广场的国庆升旗仪式是一项庄严的活动,吸引着来自全国各地的游客。空处为非谓语动词,且attract与event之间为主动关系,应用现在分词作结果状语,表自然结果。故填attracting。
【41题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意:对于军事爱好者来说,这也是一个在现实生活中看到最先进军事装备的好机会。根据句意可知,此处表示“最先进的”,advance的形容词形式为advanced“先进的”,其最高级为most advanced。故填most advanced。
【42题详解】
考查冠词。句意:随后通常会举行游行,有许多来自各行各业的民众参加,包括工人、教师、学生等,甚至还有为中国做出贡献的外国人。a number of是固定搭配,意为“许多”,修饰可数名词复数civilians,符合“众多民众参与”的语境。故填a。
【43题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:随后通常会举行游行,有许多来自各行各业的民众参加,包括工人、教师、学生等,甚至还有为中国做出贡献的外国人。空处引导定语从句,修饰先行词foreigners,指人,且从句中缺少主语,应用关系代词who或that引导。故填who/that。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:为了纪念在中国解放斗争中牺牲的英雄们,共产党领导人也会在假期期间向人民英雄纪念碑献花。空处为非谓语动词,且此处表示目的“为了纪念”,应用动词不定式作目的状语,句首单词首字母需大写。故填To honour。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意:所以,如果你非常希望在国庆节期间旅行,请提前做好计划。空处修饰动词wish,应用副词extremely,意为“非常”,作状语。故填extremely。

【答案】curiosity
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:出于好奇,这个女孩迫不及待地打开了盒子。介词后接名词作宾语,curiosity“好奇”,out of curiosity“出于好奇”,根据句意,故填curiosity。
47. I am excited that there is a lot ________ (explore) at senior high school. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】to explore
【解析】
【详解】考查不定式。句意:我很兴奋在高中有很多东西要探索。分析句子可知,句中涉及固定句型“there is sth. to do”,意为“有事要去做”,应用不定式表示将要发生的动作,“explore”意为“探索”,动词词性,故空格处应填“to explore”。故填to explore。
48. There was a lost, _________ (frighten) look in the Doctor’s eyes, which worried Mr Lorry very much. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】frightened
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:医生眼中流露出一种茫然、恐惧的神情,这让劳里先生非常担心。根据空前的“a lost”及空后的名词“look”可知,空处修饰其后的名词look,需用形容词形式,作定语,句中look表人的神情,应用-ed形容词frightened“感到恐惧的”,描述人感到恐惧而表现出的神情。故填frightened。
49. ________ difficult the task is, I will try my best to finish it.(用适当的词填空)
【答案】However
【解析】

50. It is strongly recommended that the machines ___________________(check) every year. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】should be checked##be checked
【解析】
【详解】考查虚拟语气和被动语态。句意:强烈建议这些机器每年检查一次。It is strongly recommended that...是固定句型,意为“强烈建议……”,It是形式主语,that引导的是主语从句,从句中用(should+动词原形)的虚拟语气,should可省略,机器是被检查,空格处用should be done,因此空格处是(should) be checked。故填(should) be checked。
51. _________ (addict) to coffee, he couldn’t start his day without a cup of espresso. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】Addicted
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:他对咖啡上瘾,不喝一杯意式浓缩咖啡就无法开始新的一天。句中考查固定短语addicted to,表示“对……上瘾”,在句中作状语,空处用形容词addicted“上瘾的”,位于句首,首字母大写。故填Addicted。
52. _______ (prefer) will be given to graduates of this university. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】Preference
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:这所大学的毕业生将优先考虑。由句意及空后的will be given to graduates of this university可知应填名词preference表示“偏爱;优先(权)”,作主语,空处位于句首,首字母应大写,故填Preference。
53. He sat there, with his attention ________ (concentrate) on the blackboard. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】concentrated
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:他坐在那里,注意力集中在黑板上。此处是“with + 宾语 + 宾语补足语”的结构,宾语“his attention”与“concentrate”之间是被动关系,即用过去分词作宾语补足语。故填concentrated。
54. The girl stared at me with a look of _________ (confuse). (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】confusion
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:那个女孩用困惑的表情盯着我。此处位于介词“of”之后,需用名词形式作宾语;所给词“confuse”为动词,意为“使困惑”,其名词形式为confusion,意为“困惑”,a look of confusion表示“困惑的表情”,符合语境。故填confusion。
55. The task assigned, dangerous or otherwise, must be finished as _________ (schedule). (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】scheduled
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:分配的任务,无论是否危险,都必须按计划完成。此处为状语从句中的省略结构,逻辑主语“the task”与“schedule”之间是被动关系,需用过去分词scheduled,完整形式为“as it is scheduled”。故填scheduled。

【答案】One possible version:
Dear Jack,
I have received your letter saying that you’re having trouble choosing clubs in your new high school. I totally get why you’re so confused! Starting high school is already a big step, and adding so many club options just makes it more overwhelming. Let me share some advice that helped me when I was in your shoes.
Firstly, I suggest you consider your true interests rather than following the crowd for the reason that joining a club you genuinely enjoy will bring long-term satisfaction and growth. Additionally, why not make use of the trial sessions many clubs offer? This way, you can experience them firsthand before deciding. Ultimately, it’s advisable to choose just one or two clubs at first. Overloading yourself may affect your studies and rest, which are equally important.
I sincerely hope you’ll find my suggestions helpful. Have confidence, and enjoy your high school journey!
Yours,
Li Hua
