Silk was valuable in ancient China. Wearing silk ______ a symbol of being rich.

Silk was also popular ______ foreign people. They loved silk and would like to pay a lot of money for it. A. between B. to C. among 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：丝绸在外国人中也很受欢迎。他们喜欢丝绸并愿意为此支付很多钱。 考查介词辨析。between在……之间（通常指两者之间）；to向；among在……之中（表示三者或以上群体中）。根据句意，丝绸受欢迎的对象是“foreign people”，这是一个群体概念，需用among。故选C。 4. The Chinese kings used to ______ how to make silk a secret. A. keep B. to keep C. keeping 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：中国国王过去常常保守如何制作丝绸成为一个秘密。 考查非谓语动词。keep保持，动词原形；to keep动词不定式；keeping现在分词；根据“The Chinese kings used to ... how to make silk a secret”可知，考查used to的用法；used to后接动词原形，表示过去经常发生的动作或状态。故选A。 5. The secret of silk making was kept unknown ______ 200 B.C. Then, some other countries began to know how to make silk. A. after B. until C. when 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：丝绸制作的秘密一直不为人知，直到公元前200年。之后，其他国家才开始知道如何制作丝绸。 考查连词辨析。after在……之后；until直到……；when当……时。根据句意和“Then, some other countries began to know...”可知，秘密被保守到公元前200年为止，之后才传开，因此用“until”表示“直到……才”。故选B。 6.

A. shapes B. colors C. kinds 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：两千年前没有汽车或飞机，人们在中国和欧洲之间的道路上买卖各种商品。 考查名词辨析。shapes形状；colors颜色；kinds种类。all kinds of是固定搭配，意为“各种各样的”，此处指“各种各样的商品”，符合句意。故选C。 7.

A. of B. for C. out 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：人们称它为丝绸之路，因为在这条路上运输的大多数商品都是用丝绸制成的。 考查介词辨析。of的；for为了；out出，向外。根据句意，商品由丝绸制成，可以看出原材料，应使用固定搭配“be made of”表示“由……制成”。故选A。 8.

They want ______ Silk Road treasures to be on the World Cultural Heritage list.

Tom together with his friends ________ (be) going to the famous university this summer vacation. 【答案】is 【解析】 【详解】句意：今年暑假，汤姆要和他的朋友们一起去那所著名的大学。句子的时态为一般将来时，主语是Tom，谓语动词遵循主谓一致的“就远原则”。“together with his friends”在句中作伴随状语，不影响谓语的单复数形式。故填is。 12. Xu Mengtao is now planning for her ________ (five) Winter Games. 【答案】fifth 【解析】 【详解】句意：徐梦桃正在为她第五次冬季奥运会做准备。根据“for her...Winter Games”及所给词提示可知，此处指“第五次冬奥会”，用five的序数词fifth表示顺序。故填fifth。 13. I’m often told that ________ (work) hard is the only way to success. 【答案】working 【解析】 【详解】句意：我经常被告知努力工作是通往成功的唯一途径。that引导的宾语从句中，谓语动词是“is”，缺少主语成分，动词原形“work”不能直接作主语，需变形为动名词“working”。故填working。 14. It’s _________ (excite) to see so many young people get together fighting for their future. 【答案】exciting 【解析】 【详解】句意：看到这么多年轻人聚在一起为他们的未来而奋斗，真令人兴奋。本句是固定句型“It’s+形容词+不定式”结构，it是形式主语，真正的主语是动词不定式，表示“事情”，所以用excite的形容词exciting修饰。故填exciting。 15. If you want to keep _________ (health), what you need to do is to exercise regularly. 【答案】healthy 【解析】 【详解】句意：如果你想保持健康，你需要做的就是定期锻炼。keep后需接形容词作表语，此处需将名词health变形为形容词healthy，意为“健康的”。故填healthy。 16. He is used to _________ (cross) the river to school, so he is not afraid. 【答案】crossing 【解析】 【详解】句意：他习惯于过河上学，所以他不怕。根据“so he is not afraid”可知，不害怕应是因为习惯了，be used to doing sth“习惯做某事”，所以空处用动名词作宾语，故填crossing。 17. Yang Ziqiong made history by _________ (become) the first Asian woman to win an Oscar award. 【答案】becoming 【解析】 【详解】句意：杨紫琼通过成为首位获得奥斯卡奖的亚裔女性创造了历史。介词“by”后需接动名词becoming，作宾语。故填becoming。 18. Nowadays, the Internet is _________ (wide) used in our daily lives. 【答案】widely 【解析】 【详解】句意：如今，互联网在我们的日常生活中被广泛使用。wide“广泛的”，形容词，空处修饰动词used所以用wide的副词形式widely“广泛的”来修饰。故填widely。 19. When you called me yesterday, I _________ (help) my mom in the kitchen. 【答案】was helping 【解析】 【详解】句意：你昨天打电话给我时，我正在厨房帮我妈妈。根据“When you called me yesterday...”可知，句子描述的是过去某个时间点正在进行的动作，所以主句用过去进行时，谓语动词构成是was/were+现在分词，主语是I，be动词用was，help的现在分词形式为helping。故填was helping。 20. Here is some of my _________ (advice) on how to learn well. 【答案】advice 【解析】 【详解】句意：以下是我对如何学好的一些建议。some后跟可数名词复数或不可数名词，advice“建议”，是不可数名词，无复数形式。故填advice。 三、完形填空(10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 先通读短文，掌握其大意，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个可以填入相应空白处的最佳答案。 There was an old man who used to sleep on the sidewalk of the Fifth Street Post Office.

When we arrived, Uncle Tommie was already waiting for us. “Boys, I’m not rushing you off,” he said, “but the wind is picking up. You’d better get the goose and head for home soon.” After a quick thank-you and goodbye, I took the goose and we left. Halfway up the mountain, it began to snow heavily. I held the goose close to me. By the time we reached the top of the mountain, it snowed more heavily. And the wind seemed to blow straight through my coat. I stepped in front of Rick. “You must be cold. Open your coat!” “Are you crazy?” Rick asked. “I’ll lose what little warmth I have!” When he saw I was serious, he slowly opened his coat. I placed the warm goose inside his coat. Rick sighed happily (舒了口气). My plan was working. On the way down, I started to shiver (发抖). Rick said, “Dave, it’s your turn now.” He passed me the goose. For a long moment, I just stood and warmed my freezing (冰冷的) hands on his body. We passed the goose back and forth (来回地) between us all the way. Finally, we got home. Sitting at the table, we explained how the goose kept us from freezing. “We can’t have him for dinner! This goose helped save our lives,” I said. Later, we named the goose Charley and he lived out his life in the yard, bossing around the chickens and another goose we bought to keep him company. A life as the most important bird was fitting for our hero. 36. Which of the following words can best describe the weather change during the trip to Uncle Tommie’s?
