In the end, we wrote down what we learned in our 9 (diary). Most of us agreed with the idea: small actions can create a 10 (good) world. Hopefully, more people will join us to make our planet greener and healthier!
Passage 2
How to be green
We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day, and it is 1 (harm) to our environment. Repeat these three words daily—reduce, reuse and recycle.
Reduce means “use less”. Do not waste things. It saves money and 2 (cause) less pollution.
Do not order more food than you can finish. Turn 3 the lights when you do not need them. Before you buy something new, think 4 it is really necessary because maybe the old one is just as good!
Reuse means “use again”. Use things for 5 long as possible. Look after them so that they will last. Repair them if possible. Do not throw them away and buy new ones. Do not use paper cups or paper bags. It is better to use china cups and cloth bags because they can be 6 (use) many times.
Recycle means “change things into something else to be reused”. Although it takes energy 7 (change) things into something else, it is better than throwing things away or burning them. We throw 8 (ton) of rubbish away each year, and we have to make a change. Divide your rubbish into plastic, glass, paper and rubber. 9 (development) a recycling policy for the whole community. Buy products such as recycled paper to help save trees.
We cannot hope for 10 (rapidly) change, but let’s take these simple steps today so that we will save the world for our grandsons and granddaughters tomorrow.

“I was learning about bees at that time, and the more I learned about something, the more I cared,” he said. “Bees are amazing. They play 4 big role in the environment.” In fact, with the help of pollination (授粉) made by bees, we can get more fruit that is 5 (big), brighter, and sweeter. Sadly, bees are facing a hard situation now because of climate change and less living space for them. As a result, Zach started the organization Blading for Bees. It 6 (found) mainly for the protection of bee population.
In 1021, Zach spent 91 7 (day) finishing a 10,093-kilometre rollerblading trip. That was enough to break the Guinness World Record for “Longest Continuous Journey on rollerblades”. He wanted to bring people together to help the bees. And it would help all life on earth 8 . (final)

1.句意:这是我在过去两年里非常清楚地学习到的事情。根据“in the last two years”可知,此处应用现在完成时,结构为“have/has+过去分词”,主语是I,助动词用have。故填have learned。
2.句意:我过去常常花很多时间玩电脑游戏,有时在家,有时在我家附近的网吧。used to do sth“过去常常做某事”,为固定搭配。故填to spend。
3.句意:我时不时地惹老师和父母生气。from time to time是固定搭配,意为“时不时”。故填to。
4.句意:而且,我过去不怕任何人或任何事。what’s more是固定表达,表示“而且”。故填more。
5.句意:我过去有尝试过改变自己吗?此处是指改变自己,用反身代词myself“我自己”。故填myself。

Passage2
For this month’s Young World magazine I interviewed 19-year-old Asian pop star Candy Wang. Candy told me that she used to be 1 (real) shy and took up singing to deal with her shyness. As she got better, she dared to sing in front of her class and then for the whole school. Now she’s not shy anymore and loves 2 (sing) in front of crowds.
I asked Candy how life was different after she became famous. She explained that there are many good things, like being able to travel and 3 (meet) new people all the time. “I didn’t use to be popular in school but now I get 4 (ton) of attention everywhere I go. ” However, too much attention can also be 5 bad thing. “I always have to worry 6 how I appear to others, and I have to be very careful about what I say or do. And I don’t have 7 (many) private time anymore. Hanging out with friends is almost 8 (possible) now because there are always guards around me.”
What does Candy have to say to all those young people 9 want to become famous? “Well,” she begins slowly, “you have to be prepared to give up your normal life. You can never imagine how difficult the road to success is. Many times I thought about giving up 10 I fought on. You really require a lot of talent and hard work to succeed. Only a very small number of people make it to the top.
【答案】
1.really 2.singing 3.meet 4.tons 5.a 6.about 7.much 8.impossible 9.who 10.but
【导语】本文是一篇采访稿,主要讲述了亚洲流行歌星Candy Wang的成长经历以及成名后的生活变化,同时她对那些想要成名的年轻人给出了建议。
1.句意:Candy告诉我她过去非常害羞,于是开始唱歌来克服她的害羞。分析句子结构可知,此处用副词修饰形容词“shy”,“real”的副词形式为“really”,意为“非常”。故填really。
2.句意:现在她不再害羞,喜欢在人群面前唱歌。根据“loves”可知,此处考查“love doing sth.”,意为“喜欢做某事”,因此用“sing”的动名词形式“singing”。故填singing。
3.句意:她解释说有很多好处,比如能够旅行和一直认识新朋友。由“being able to”可知,be able to是固定搭配,后接动词原形。当and连接两个并列的be able to do结构时,第二个to可以省略,因此本句中travel和meet是并列的动词原形,共同跟在be able to之后。故填meet。

1.句意:但是如果每个人都这么做,想象一下世界会有多干净。根据“But...everyone did that, imagine how clean the world would be.”可知,此处表示假设,如果每个人都每天捡一块垃圾,世界会变得很干净,用if引导条件状语从句。故填if。
