二、所给词的适当形式填空
1.As a , he wrote many novels which are popular with readers. (novel)
【答案】novelist
【详解】考查名词。句意:作为一名小说家,他写了许多深受读者喜爱的小说。空处应用单数名词,作宾语;novelist为可数名词,表示“小说家”,符合句意。故填novelist。
2.The thirst for success (motivate) them to keep progressing.
【答案】motivates
【详解】考查动词时态与主谓一致。句意:对成功的渴望促使他们不断前进。此处主语The thirst of success不可数,句子描述的是一般状态,需用一般现在时的第三人称单数形式,故填motivates。
3.Find your own ways to learn words and (express).
【答案】expressions
【详解】考查名词。句意:在语言学习中,找到适合自己的记词与表达方法能提升沟通效率。此处与words并列作宾语,需将动词express转换为名词expression,用复数形式表泛指。故填expressions。
4.Reading (comprehend) comp is a main testing item to test the students’ reading ability.
【答案】comprehension
【详解】考查名词。句意:阅读理解测试是检验学生阅读能力的主要项目之一。此处作定语,修饰comp用名词comprehension,故填comprehension。
5.Wind blew hard through trees, (bend) branches and sweeping away leaves.
【答案】bending
【详解】查非谓语动词。句意:狂风穿过树林,吹弯了树枝,卷走了树叶。此处与sweeping并列,作伴随状语,逻辑主语Wind与bend是主动关系,需用现在分词形式。故填bending。
6.Flowering plants provide most of the calories humans eat, from (grain) to fruits to vegetables.
【答案】grains
【详解】考查名词复数。句意:开花植物为人类提供了大部分热量来源,涵盖谷物、水果、蔬菜等各类食物。此处与fruits和vegetables并列,需用grain的复数形式grains表示各类谷物,作宾语。故填grains。
7.At his high school graduation, Ryan gave a speech as a student (represent).
【答案】representative
【详解】考查名词。句意:高中毕业典礼上,瑞安以学生代表的身份发表了演讲。此处a student后需接名词表示身份,应将动词represent转换为名词representative,意为“代表”。根据不定冠词a可知,用名词的单数形式。故填representative。
三、根据汉语提示完成句子
1.Small actions can (产生深远影响) in the world.
【答案】have a profound impact/make a profound impact
【详解】考查动词短语和固定搭配。句意:小小的行为也能对世界产生深远的影响。根据汉语提示可知,可使用固定搭配“have/make + a/an +形容词+ impact”表达。其中,“深远的”对应形容词“profound”;“影响”用“impact”,即“have/make a profound impact”,置于情态动词can之后,动词用原形。故填have a profound impact/make a profound impact。
2.In summary, literature is (……的表达) life in forms of truth and beauty.
【答案】the expression of
【详解】考查名词。句意:总之,文学是以真和美的形式表达生活。“……的表达”为the expression of,作表语,故填the expression of。
3.The remarkable novels are written by Jane Austen, who is (一位著名的英国小说家).
【答案】a famous English novelist
【详解】考查名词。句意:这些杰出的小说是由英国著名小说家简·奥斯汀写的。根据汉语提示,“著名的”译为famous,“英国小说家”译为English novelist,表示“一位”用不定冠词修饰,故填a famous English novelist。
4. (从他的口音来判断), he must be from the south of America. (结合judge的用法完成句子)
【答案】 Judging from/by his accent
【详解】考查现在分词和名词。句意:从他的口音来判断,他一定是南美洲人。judging from/by (从……判断)是独立结构作状语,代词his (他的),名词accent (口音)作宾语,首字母大写。故填①Judging ②from/by ③his ④accent。
5.I will never know what was on his mind at the time; (其他任何人也不会知道).
【答案】nor will anyone else/neither will anyone else
【详解】考查倒装句和省略。句意:我永远不会知道他当时在想什么;其他任何人也不会知道。根据第一句使用否定句,结合汉语提示可知,连词应用nor或neither,表示“也不”,连接句子;主语“其他任何人”应用“anyone else”;否定词位于句首,句子应部分倒装,情态动词提至主语前;句意与前一句相同,时态为一般将来时,情态动词用will,动词和宾语省略,故填nor/neither will anyone else。
6.Not only (他对绘画感兴趣), but he also teaches his son how to draw.
【答案】is he interested in painting
【详解】考查倒装句。句意:他不仅对绘画感兴趣,还教他的儿子如何画画。根据句子结构“Not only”位于句首可知,这里考查部分倒装。根据所给汉语提示“他对绘画感兴趣”的陈述句应该是he is interested in painting,部分倒装时需要把is提到主语前面,即is he interested in painting。故填is he interested in painting。

【答案】
1.editing 2.comments 3.confidence 4.totally 5.than 6.means 7.the most important 8.to obtain 9.and 10.with
【导语】本篇文章属于夹叙夹议文。先是叙述了Jade、Anthony、Emma三人对自身外貌及美的不同看法与经历,后通过Dr Hart的观点展开议论,探讨外表、自信与美的关系 。
1.考查非谓语动词。句意:所以她每天花几个小时编辑她的自拍,发布它们并急切地查看手机以获取评论。分析句子可知,这里考查spend time (in) doing sth. 为固定搭配,意为“花费时间做某事”,所以此空应填动名词作宾语。故填editing。

6.考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:她的故事改变了艾玛对于美的意义的看法。分析句子可知,what引导宾语从句,从句描述的是客观事实,应用一般现在时,主语it为第三人称单数,谓语动词应用means。故填means。
7.考查形容词最高级。句意:她意识到身心健康才是最重要的。分析句子可知,此处表示“最重要的”,应用形容词最高级,important的最高级为the most important。故填the most important。
8.考查非谓语动词。句意:Hart博士认为Jade为了获得他人赞扬而展现出的形象是虚假的。分析句子可知,此处表示目的,应用动词不定式作目的状语。故填to obtain。
9.考查连词。句意:努力打理我们的外表能给别人留下积极的第一印象,并且增强我们的自信心。分析句子可知,“leave a positive first impression on others”与 “boost our confidence” 为并列关系,应用and连接。故填and。

五、阅读理解
How to go to bed earlier
It can often feel like no matter what you do, you just can't get enough of sleep to wake up feeling refreshed. What can you do about it? 1 ! Try the following strategies, so nothing stands between you and your bed each night.
Pamper (娇宠) yourself
2 . Think: cozy pajamas (睡衣) that you can't wait to put on at night and a luxurious (豪华的) sheet set that makes your bedroom feel like a five-star hotel.
Program your thermostat (自动调温器)
3 . And your body temperature naturally declines as you prepare for sleep. So if you keep your thermostat higher during the day, setting a smart thermostat to drop the temperature of the house at a certain time each night can help to remind your body when it's bedtime.
Listen to relaxing music
Babies aren't the only ones who can benefit from a good lullaby (催眠曲). 4 . Download a sleepy-time playlist to your phone, and then let it do its thing.
5
Yes, a real, made-of-paper book. While you can get just about any reading material on electronic devices like smart phones these days, the blue light they give out can keep you up at night. If you just can't go back to turning pages, consider an e-reader that doesn't have a bright screen, like a basic Kindle.
A.Take a book to bed
B.Read to enrich your life
C.However, it is often easier said than done
D.You sleep best when the temperature is cool
E.Soft music can help adults relax and fall asleep faster
F.The answer is as simple as the advice your mother always gives you: Get to bed earlier
G.One way to motivate yourself to go to bed is to give yourself something to look forward to
【答案】1.F 2.G 3.D 4.E 5.A
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何做到早睡以使自己早上醒来时精力充沛。
1.根据空格前的内容“It can often feel like no matter what you do, you just can't get enough of sleep to wake up feeling refreshed. What can you do about it? (你可能无论如何都无法得到足够的睡眠,从而让自己早上醒来时精力充沛。你能为这个做什么?)”可知,F项(答案就像你妈妈给你的建议一样简单:早点睡觉)是对空格前句的回答,空格后的“Try the following strategies, so nothing stands between you and your bed each night.(尝试以下策略,这样每晚你就能正常地按时入睡)”是在引出下文的“如何做到早睡”。故选F。
2.根据本段的小标题“Pamper (娇宠) yourself(娇宠一下自己)”和空格后的内容“Think: cozy pajamas that you can't wait to put on at night and a luxurious sheet set that makes your bedroom feel like a five-star hotel.(想想晚上迫不及待要穿上的舒适睡衣和让你的卧室感觉像五星级酒店的豪华床单套装)”可知,G项(激励自己上床睡觉的一种方法是给自己一些值得期待的东西)是在说明“如何娇宠一下自己”,且下文中的“舒适的睡衣”和“豪华的床单”这两个例子是对G项中的“ something to look forward to”的举例说明。故选G。
3.根据本段的小标题“Program your thermostat(设置好你的自动调温器)”和空格后的内容“And your body temperature naturally declines as you prepare for sleep. So if you keep your thermostat higher during the day, setting a smart thermostat to drop the temperature of the house at a certain time each night can help to remind your body when it's bedtime.(当你准备睡觉时,你的体温会自然下降。因此,如果你在白天将调温器的温度保持在较高的水平,那么对恒温器进行智能设置以在每晚的特定时间降低房屋的温度,这样可以帮助提醒你该睡觉了)”可知,D项(温度低的时候睡得最好)是“设置好你的自动调温器”的目的所在,下文中的“降低室内温度提醒你去睡觉”与该项衔接通顺。故选D。
4.根据空格前的内容“Babies aren't the only ones who can benefit from a good lullaby.(婴儿并不是唯一可以从好的催眠曲中受益的人)”和空格后的内容“Download a sleepy-time playlist to your phone, and then let it do its thing.(将帮助睡眠的播放列表下载到你的手机,然后让它发挥作用)”可知,E项(轻音乐可以帮助成年人放松并更快入睡)与本段小标题(听放松的音乐)相呼应,承接上文,说明音乐能够促进很多人睡眠质量的提高,下文是具体的操作办法。故选E。
5.根据该段落的“Yes, a real, made-of-paper book. While you can get just about any reading material on electronic devices like smart phones these days, the blue light they give out can keep you up at night. If you just can’t go back to turning pages, consider an e-reader that doesn't have a bright screen, like a basic Kindle.(是的,一本真正的纸制书。虽然如今你几乎可以在智能手机等电子设备上获得任何阅读材料,但它们发出的蓝光会让你彻夜难眠。如果你无法翻开书看,请考虑使用没有明亮屏幕的电子阅读器,例如常规的 Kindle)可知,本段主要是说睡前看书(最好是纸质书)有利于睡眠。A项(睡觉前看看书)能够准确概括段落内容。故选A。

I spent five months in Vietnam, teaching and exploring and laughing. I’d learned to 18 myself, my skills, my abilities and my decisions. I returned home 19 , even to myself, let alone to others. The 20 that had controlled my life and the self-doubt were completely worn off.

Pamper (娇宠) yourself
2 . Think: cozy pajamas (睡衣) that you can't wait to put on at night and a luxurious (豪华的) sheet set that makes your bedroom feel like a five-star hotel.
Program your thermostat (自动调温器)
3 . And your body temperature naturally declines as you prepare for sleep. So if you keep your thermostat higher during the day, setting a smart thermostat to drop the temperature of the house at a certain time each night can help to remind your body when it's bedtime.
Listen to relaxing music
Babies aren't the only ones who can benefit from a good lullaby (催眠曲). 4 . Download a sleepy-time playlist to your phone, and then let it do its thing.
