【答案】responsible
【解析】
【详解】句意:任何使用该设备的人都将对任何损坏或损失承担直接责任。根据“for any damage or loss”可知使用该设备的人都将对任何损坏或损失承担直接责任,作be动词的表语用形容词,responsibility“责任”,是名词,其形容词是responsible“负责的”。故填responsible。
50. She was completely ________ of the trouble she had caused. (aware)
【答案】unaware
【解析】
【详解】句意:她完全没有意识到她惹的麻烦。aware“意识到的”,形容词;根据“the trouble she had caused”和语境可知,她应该是“没有意识到”,需用其反义词unaware,be unaware of...“没意识到……”,在句中作表语。故填unaware。
51. We find ourselves more ________ of our parents, whether economically or mentally. (dependent)
【答案】independent
【解析】
【详解】句意:我们发现自己在经济或精神上更加独立于父母。find sb. adj.“发现某人……”,形容词作宾语补足语,根据“of our parents”可知此处是短语independent of“独立于”,固定用法。故填independent。
52. The delicious smell from the kitchen made our ________ start to water. (mouth)
【答案】mouths
【解析】
【详解】句意:厨房里的香味让我们垂涎欲滴。mouth“嘴巴”,根据“our”可知此处用名词复数。故填mouths。
53. The atmosphere of the novel is ________ reproduced in the movie. (success)
【答案】successfully
【解析】
【详解】句意:小说的氛围在电影中成功地再现了。success“成功”,名词;空格位于动词reproduced之前,修饰动词,需用副词形式successfully“成功地”作状语。故填successfully。
Ⅴ.Rewrite the following sentences as required(根据所给要求,改写下列句子。每空格限填一词)(共18分)
54. Bruce wrote some letters to his pen friend last month.(改成一般疑问句)
___________ Bruce ___________ any letters to his pen friend last month?
【答案】 ①. Did ②. write
【解析】
【详解】句意:布鲁斯上个月写了一些信给他的笔友。考查含实义动词的句子变为一般疑问句。根据句中的动词wrote是动词的过去式,改为一般疑问句时,要借助于助动词do的过去式did,放在句首要大写,再把动词的过去式改为动词原形,即wrote改为write。故填Did;write。
55. The railway station is thirty minutes’ ride from his office.(对划线部分提问)
___________ ___________ is the railway station from his office?
【答案】 ①. How ②. far
【解析】
【详解】句意:火车站离他的办公室有30分钟的车程。划线部分“thirty minutes’ ride”是表示距离,对距离提问用疑问词how far,句首首字母要大写。故填How;far。
56. They started early yesterday morning. They wanted to attend the lecture on time.(合并为一句)
They started early yesterday morning ___________ ___________ they could attend the lecture on time.
【答案】 ①. so ②. that
【解析】

57. Jane often offers to look after her grandfather at weekends.(保持句意基本不变)
Jane often offers to ________ ________ her grandfather at weekends.
【答案】 ①. care ②. for
【解析】
【详解】句意:简经常主动提出周末照顾她的爷爷。表示“照看,照顾”的词组有look after、take care of以及care for,根据答题空为两个空可知,care for符合。故填care for。
58. My friends gave me some books at my fifteenth birthday party.(改为被动语态)
I ___________ ___________ some books at my fifteenth birthday party.
【答案】 ①. was ②. given
【解析】
【详解】句意:我的朋友们在我第15个生日派对上给了我一些书。考查主动语态变被动语态。原句是一般过去时,应改为一般过去时的被动语态,其结构was/were done。主语是“I”,所以be动词用was;give的过去分词是given。故填was;given。
59. “Can I keep the magazine for two weeks?” the boy asked the librarian.(改为宾语从句)
The boy asked the librarian ___________ he ___________ keep the magazine for two weeks.
【答案】 ①. if##whether ②. could
【解析】
【详解】句意:“我可以借这本杂志借两周吗?”这个男孩问图书管理员。根据题干可知,此处是一个一般疑问句,因此宾语从句的连接词应用“是否”if/whether;结合本句“The boy asked the librarian”可知,宾语从句遵循主过从过的规则,因此第二空应用can的过去式。故填if/whether;could。
60. Hans has been in Shanghai for two years. (对划线部分提问)
________ ________ has Hans been in Shanghai ?
【答案】 ①. How ②. long
【解析】
【详解】句意:汉斯在上海已经两年了。根据划线部分“for two years”可知,此处询问多长时间,应用how long,句首单词首字母要大写。故填How;long。

John is not ________ ________ to control his raft in the river now.
【答案】 ①. strong ②. enough
【解析】
【详解】句意:约翰太虚弱了,现在无法在河里控制他的木筏。改为同义句时,需要使用“not+形容词反义词+enough+to do”结构,与“so+形容词+that+否定句”进行转换。“weak”的反义词是“strong”,“enough”放在形容词后,表示“足够……去做某事”。故填strong;enough。
62. increasing, of, is, the number, all the time, users(连词成句)
________________________________.
【答案】The number of users is increasing all the time.
【解析】
【详解】根据所给标点及所给词可知,本句是陈述句。先确定核心结构the number of +名词(……的数量),对应短语the number of users(用户数量),作句子主语;谓语部分用is increasing(正在增长),是现在进行时结构;all the time(一直)是时间状语,放句末。故填The number of users is increasing all the time.

D.Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)
Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)
In 1961, when I was in the fifth grade and struggling with poor school grades, I didn’t care much about it at the time. My older brother and I lived with our mother in a not-so-nice apartment in Detroit. Every night, we would just watch TV.
But one day, Mom changed our world forever. She turned off the TV. As a cleaner, our mother had only been able to get through third grade, but she was much brighter and smarter than we boys knew at the time. She cleaned houses in suburbs. She began to notice the difference education made in the lives of others. It was then that she realized the importance of reading. So she came home one day, switched off the TV, sat us down and explained that her sons were going to make something of themselves. “You boys are going to read three books every week.”
We complained and thought it was too much. We didn’t even have books at home, but Mom said we would go to the library together. I felt unsure as I walked through the children’s section. I loved animals, so I picked up a book about beavers (河狸) called Chip the Dam Builder. It was amazing! I was in a different world! No TV show had ever taken me away from my environment like this book did.
Soon, I began to look forward to escaping to this quiet paradise from my other world. I read about animals, then moved on to plants, and finally rocks. Each book caught my interest, and I could travel anywhere through the pages. So I couldn’t wait to go there again to continue reading.
Now, my older brother is an engineer and I am chief of pediatric neurosurgery (儿童神经外科) at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center in Baltimore. Sometimes, I can’t believe how far I’ve come from a struggling student to a doctor and who teaches and performs important surgeries around the world. But I know my journey began when ________ and ________. (6)

85. He felt amazed.
86. Because each book caught his interest and allowed him to travel anywhere through the pages.
87. ①. my mother turned off the TV ②. she made us read books
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了作者小时候成绩不好,但母亲通过关闭电视并强制他们阅读书籍,最终改变了他们的人生轨迹的故事。
【82题详解】
根据“I was in the fifth grade and struggling with poor school grades, I didn’t care much about it at the time.”可知,作者起初并不在意自己的学业成绩。故填No, he didn’t.
【83题详解】
根据“She began to notice the difference education made in the lives of others. It was then that she realized the importance of reading.”可知,母亲是在观察到教育对他人生活的影响后,意识到阅读的重要性。故填When she noticed the difference education made in the lives of others, she realized the importance of reading.
【84题详解】
根据“Your boys are going to read three books every week.”可知,作者抱怨每周读三本书太多了。“It”指代前面提到的“每周读三本书”。故填Reading three books every week.
【85题详解】
根据“It was amazing! I was in a different world!”可知,作者读完第一本关于河狸书后感到非常惊奇。故填He felt amazed.
【86题详解】
根据“Each book caught my interest, and I could travel anywhere through the pages.”可知,作者继续阅读是因为每本书都吸引了他的兴趣,让他能够通过书页“旅行”到任何地方。故填Because each book caught his interest and allowed him to travel anywhere through the pages.
【87题详解】
根据“She turned off the TV…‘Your boys are going to read three books every week.’”和“ Each book caught my interest, and I could travel anywhere through the pages.”可知,作者的转变始于母亲关闭电视并强制他们阅读。故填my mother turned off the TV;she made us read books。

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)
In 1961, when I was in the fifth grade and struggling with poor school grades, I didn’t care much about it at the time. My older brother and I lived with our mother in a not-so-nice apartment in Detroit. Every night, we would just watch TV.
But one day, Mom changed our world forever. She turned off the TV. As a cleaner, our mother had only been able to get through third grade, but she was much brighter and smarter than we boys knew at the time. She cleaned houses in suburbs. She began to notice the difference education made in the lives of others. It was then that she realized the importance of reading. So she came home one day, switched off the TV, sat us down and explained that her sons were going to make something of themselves. “You boys are going to read three books every week.”
We complained and thought it was too much. We didn’t even have books at home, but Mom said we would go to the library together. I felt unsure as I walked through the children’s section. I loved animals, so I picked up a book about beavers (河狸) called Chip the Dam Builder. It was amazing! I was in a different world! No TV show had ever taken me away from my environment like this book did.
Soon, I began to look forward to escaping to this quiet paradise from my other world. I read about animals, then moved on to plants, and finally rocks. Each book caught my interest, and I could travel anywhere through the pages. So I couldn’t wait to go there again to continue reading.
Now, my older brother is an engineer and I am chief of pediatric neurosurgery (儿童神经外科) at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center in Baltimore. Sometimes, I can’t believe how far I’ve come from a struggling student to a doctor and who teaches and performs important surgeries around the world. But I know my journey began when ________ and ________. (6)
