This also made me realize that there is 2 pine nor apple in pineapple. What 3 (make) English a crazy language to learn? For example, while we’re traveling, we can get seasick at sea, airsick in the air and carsick in 4 car, but we don’t get homesick when we get back home. If harmless 5 (action) are the opposite of harmful actions, why are 6 (shame) and shameful behaviors the same? We can say “it’s raining” or “it's snowing”, but we can’t say “it’s sunshining”. Even the 7 (small) words can be confusing, such as the “WHO” in a medical report, “IT” and “US” , which have nothing to do with “who” “it” and “us”. You also have to wonder at the unique madness of a language in 8 a house can burn up as it burns down. The key to your confusion is that English 9 (invent) by people, not computers, and it 10 (reflect) the creativity of the human race. 【答案】 1．learning 2．neither 3．makes 4．a 5．actions 6．shameless 7．smallest 8．which 9．was invented 10．reflects 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章通过列举一些英语中令人困惑的词汇和表达，探讨了英语为何是一门让人觉得“疯狂”的语言，指出英语是由人创造的，反映了人类的创造力。 1．考查非谓语动词。句意：我从未想过为什么人们在学习英语上会有困难，直到有一天我的儿子问我汉堡包里是否有火腿。固定短语have trouble doing sth意为“做某事有困难”，此处应用动词-ing形式。故填learning。 2．考查连词。句意：这也让我意识到菠萝里既没有松树也没有苹果。固定搭配neither...nor...“既不……也不……”。故填neither。 3．考查动词时态。句意：是什么让英语成为一门学起来很疯狂的语言呢？此处what作主语，谓语动词应用单数形式，且句子描述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时，所以make要用第三人称单数形式。故填makes。 4．考查冠词。句意：例如，当我们旅行时，我们在海上会晕船，在空中会晕机，在车里会晕车，但当我们回到家时却不会想家。此处泛指“一辆车”，car是以辅音音素开头的单词，应用不定冠词a。故填a。 5．考查名词复数。句意：如果无害的行为是有害行为的对立面，为什么无耻的行为和可耻的行为是一样的呢？根据空后的are可知，主语应用复数形式，action是可数名词，应用复数形式。故填actions。 6．考查形容词。句意：同上。根据空后的“and shameful behaviors(无耻的行为)”以及“the same(相同)”可知，此处应填与 shameful含义相近的形容词，shame的形容词形式有shameful(可耻的)和shameless(无耻的)，两者含义相近，故填shameless。 7．考查形容词最高级。句意：甚至最小的单词也可能会让人困惑，比如医学报告中的“WHO”，“IT”和“US”，它们与“who”“it”和“us”毫无关系。根据下文“such as the “WHO” in a medical report, “IT” and “US”(比如医学报告中的“WHO”，“IT”和“US”)”可知，此处表示 “最小的”，应用形容词的最高级形式。故填smallest。 8．考查定语从句。句意：你也不得不惊叹于一门语言的独特“疯狂”之处，在这门语言中，一所房子既可以说“burn up(烧毁)”，也可以说“burn down(烧毁)”。这是一个“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句，先行词是a language，指物，关系词在从句中作介词in的宾语，应用关系代词which。故填which。 9．考查动词语态。句意：你感到困惑的关键在于英语是由人发明的，而不是由电脑发明的，并且它反映了人类的创造力。English与invent之间是被动关系，且发明英语这一动作发生在过去，应用一般过去时的被动语态，其结构为“was/were+过去分词”，English是不可数名词，be动词用was。故填was invented。 10．考查时态和主谓一致。句意：同上。空白处在句子中作谓语，此处描述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时，主语it是第三人称单数，所以reflect要用第三人称单数形式。故填reflects。 Do you have any trouble 1._________(learn) English better？Have you ever wondered why there is no ham in your hamburger 2._______ why you can’t find any eggs in eggplant？Maybe this will get you thinking how English can be 3.______ crazy language to learn．We like to paint a painting，and we are traveling in the car，4._________ we take 5.__________(photo) and travel 6.____ the bus.When we see the rain，we say “it 7.________(rain)” but no sunshining to use when seeing sunshine. The words are really 8._________(confuse). Such unique 9._______(mad) can be seen almost everywhere 10.________English reflects the creativity of the human race. 1.learning 2.and 3. a 4. but/while 5. photos 6.on 7.is raining 8.confusing 9.madness 10.because 必修一 Using language When you open a dictionary, you often come across a lot of unfamiliar words. You might think this is a bit 1 (scare). But many of them are formed 2 (use) other simpler words. This is called word formation. Words formed by combining other words can 3 (call) compounds, for example, penfriend and well-known. Prefixes and suffixes often have 4 (fix) meanings. If you add un- or in- to a word, the new word usually means 5 opposite. For example, if something isn’t correct it’s incorrect and if someone isn’t happy they’re unhappy. Words with the suffixes -ment and -ness are often nouns. For example, if somebody has improved a lot, they have made great 6 (improve). Some nouns and adjective can be used as verbs, or the other way round. When we calm somebody down, they become calm. And we can give someone a present by presenting it. And sometimes a word 7 (make) up of the first letters of several words: “World Trade Organization” can be referred to 8 WTO, and ASAP is short for “as soon as possible”. It is impossible 9 (know) the meaning of every word, 10 knowing about word formation can help us guess their meanings. 【答案】 1．scary 2．using 3．be called 4．fixed 5．the 6．improvement 7．is made 8．as 9．to know 10．but 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了英语中的构词法——合成词、派生词、前缀、后缀、词性转换、缩写等变换方法。 1．考查形容词。句意：你可能认为这有点令人害怕。本空用形容词scary“恐怖的，吓人的”，作表语。故填scary。 2．考查非谓语动词。句意：但是它们中的许多都是由使用其他简单词汇构成的。本句谓语为are formed，此处为非谓语动词，此处应用use“使用”的现在分词，作状语。故填using。 3．考查动词时态和语态。句意：词由其他词组合而成可以被称为复合词，例如，penfriend和well-known。主语words和call“称呼”是被动关系，用be called表被动，位于情态动词can后，be用原形。故填be called。 4．考查形容词。句意：前缀和后缀通常有固定的意义。此处用形容词fixed“固定的”，作定语，修饰名词meanings。故填fixed。 5．考查冠词。句意：如果你在一个词前加un-或in-，这个新词通常表示相反的意思。当特指某个事物或概念时，通常会使用“the+形容词”表示一类事物。在这里the opposite就是一个特指由添加前缀后形成的词的相反意义。故填the。 6．考查名词。句意：例如，如果某人进步很多，他们就取得了巨大的进步。此处用名词improvement“进步”，作made的宾语。故填improvement。 7．考查动词语态。句意：有时一个单词是由几个单词的首字母组成的：“World Trade Organization”可以简称为WTO， ASAP是“尽快”的缩写。本句描述一般事实，时态用一般现在时。be made up of“由……组成”为固定短语，主语a word为第三人称单数，be动词用is。故填is made。 8．考查介词。句意：有时一个单词是由几个单词的首字母组成的：“World Trade Organization”可以简称为WTO， ASAP是“尽快”的缩写。refer to... as...为固定短语，表示“把……称为……”。故填as。 9．考查非谓语动词。句意：知道每个单词的意思是不可能的，但是了解构词法可以帮助我们猜测它们的意思。it为形式主语，此处用know“知道”的不定式to know作真正的主语。故填to know。 10．考查连词。句意：知道每个单词的意思是不可能的，但是了解构词法可以帮助我们猜测它们的意思。空后与空前的不可能形成转折，应用转折连词but连接。故填but。 语法填空 1._______ we all know, technology has been rapidly developing in recent years. It has brought many changes to our daily lives, 2.________(make) them more convenient and efficient. For instance, with the 3._________ (introduce) of smartphones, we can now access information, communicate with friends, and even shop online 4._____ (easy).

Moreover, 7.________(spend)too much time on social media can 8._________ (negative) affect our mental health. Therefore, it's important for us to use technology wisely and set boundaries for ourselves. By doing so, we can enjoy the benefits of technology without 9.__________ (suffer) from its drawbacks. In conclusion, technology is a double-edged sword. It has both positive and negative effects on our lives.

For big economies like China 2 is playing a growing role in world affairs, the English language is of great 3 (important). Good English proficiency opens doors to greater opportunities 4 strengthens China’s overall international competitiveness. “Foreign language learning is not only about learning a second language,” said Shi, a member of China’s first generation of English learners after its reform and opening up. “ 5 (final), it is also about learning a fresh way of thinking. It is a 6 (power) tool for you to connect to the outside world.” English language education in China has come a long way over the past 40 years. 1978 was a historic year for the field, as it was made one of the test 7 (subject) in China’s national college entrance exam. The language has become 8 (increasing) significant ever since. “China has the biggest English education market in the world,” said Zou, founding editor of China’s English newspaper China Daily. “Although Chinese people are proud 9 their own culture and language, they are generally willing 10 (learn) about Western cultures and languages.” 【答案】 1．an 2．that/which 3．importance 4．and 5．Finally 6．powerful 7．subjects 8．increasingly 9．of 10．to learn 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是英语在中国的重要性及其教育发展。 1．考查冠词。句意：在当今世界，英语已经成为国际交流的语言，并在推动中国经济增长和社会发展方面发挥着越来越重要的作用。role是可数名词的单数形式，表泛指，前面要加不定冠词，increasingly是元音音素开头，因此不定冠词用an，play an increasingly significant role in意为“在……中发挥着越来越重要的作用”，因此空格处用冠词an，故填an。 2．考查定语从句。句意：对于像中国这样在世界事务中发挥越来越大作用的大经济体来说，英语是非常重要的。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，先行词是China，因此用关系代词that/which，故填that/which。 3．考查名词。句意：对于像中国这样在世界事务中发挥越来越大作用的大经济体来说，英语是非常重要的。great是形容词，修饰名词，important的名词是importance，是不可数名词，意为“重要性”，故填importance。 4．考查连词。句意：良好的英语水平打开了通往更多机遇的大门，并且增强了中国的整体国际竞争力。“opens doors to greater opportunities”和“strengthens China’s overall international competitiveness”之间是并列关系，且句子是肯定句，因此用and表并列，故填and。 5．考查副词。句意：最后，这也是关于学习一种新的思维方式。空格处用副词作状语，修饰整个句子，final的副词是finally，意为“最后”，位于句首的单词首字母大写，故填Finally。 6．考查形容词。句意：它是你与外部世界联系的强大工具。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词tool，空格处意为“强大的”，应用形容词powerful，故填powerful。 7．考查名词的复数。句意：1978年是该领域具有历史意义的一年，因为它被列为中国高考的考试科目之一。空前有one of，空格处用复数，故填subjects。 8．考查副词。句意：从那以后，这门语言变得越来越重要。空格处用副词increasingly修饰形容词significant，increasingly意为“越来越”，故填increasingly。 9．考查介词。句意：尽管中国人对自己的文化和语言感到自豪，但他们普遍愿意学习西方的文化和语言。be proud of是固定短语，意为“为……感到自豪”，因此空格处用介词of，故填of。 10．考查不定式。句意：尽管中国人对自己的文化和语言感到自豪，但他们普遍愿意学习西方的文化和语言。be willing to do sth.是固定短语，意为“愿意做某事”，因此空格处用不定式to learn，故填to learn。 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 必修一 Unit 2 Exploring English 培优第一阶——基础过关练 1． 语法填空 1.People say, “Well ___________ (begin), half done.” I guess this was a good ___________ (begin) to my new school life. 2.But then I figured I’d better just go all ________ and see what happens. 3.The lecture we had been looking forward to ___________ (organize) well last month, which did make a deep impression on us.  4.When you open a dictionary, you often come across a lot of__________ (familiar) words. 5.Even the smallest words can be___________ (confuse). 6.I’m enjoying the _________(create) activities, and it feels great to have done something useful. 7.Going to Mount Huangshan reminds me _______the popular Beatles’ song “The Long and Winding Road”. 8.History is a mirror __________(reflect) reality. 9.The message you intend__________(convey) through words may be opposite to what others actually understand.  10.The city was built up so fast that it has changed beyond _______(recognise). 11.The report _______(base)on those figures shows that more basic facilities are in demand. _________(base), there is a lot we can do to help. 12.To our 　　　　(confuse), the confident volunteer’s behavior was annoying yesterday on the stage. 13.He told us that Maggie couldn’t teach that day COZ she had a frog ______her throat. 14.It was Mr Liu who made me aware_______ the importance of learning English well. 15.People are likely _________(forget) their own tradition and culture if they focus too much on foreign festivals. 16.The reason _______people celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival is _______ they honor Qu Yuan, a great Chinese poet. 17.I thought this medicine would make me sleepy, but it had the ________(oppose) effect. 18.Neither he nor I _______(be) able to understand her, which makes the confident girl a little disappointed. 19.Sorry, I’m busy right now.
