I am proud to be a member of two cultures. Even though I am only ten years old, I have lived in two countries and in two cultures. I have lived in both Mexico and the United States.
I was born in the state of Michoacán. I was born in a small town called Quinceo. Life there was simple and peaceful. There was a small market where we would go on Sundays. There was a corral where we would go and watch rodeos. After school, my friends and I would go for a swim in a creek. My mom did not work; she stayed at home taking care of our family. Life in Quinceo was nice, but money was sometimes not enough to support us.
In 1996, the day came when my dad decided to bring us to the United States. Leaving my town was hard, but it was important that my family stay together. When I left Mexico, I had a lot of special friends and nice teachers.
When I first came to the United States, I started at a new school in Chicago. I found care and company at the school, among Hispanic people, my friends, and my teacher. She helped me all the time.
My education now is different from the one in Mexico. Here, I am studying in two languages. I feel very happy because I am able to communicate in two languages. In my case, speaking Spanish is an indication of my Mexican heritage. Speaking English is a symbol of my triumph and the struggles that I have as an immigrant in this country. Now that I have been here three years, I am proud to offer my help and support to people who need it.
I urge those who come from Mexico and other countries to learn English and to continue speaking their native language, too. It will help them reach out to others.

B. Because the mother found no peace in Quinceo.
C. Because they wanted to experience a new culture.
D. Because the author could have new friends.
6. Which of the following statements about the author is WRONG?
A. She wants to be a teacher and support people.
B. She enjoyed company of friends at the new school.
C. She enjoyed life in Mexico and also in the USA.
D. Her new school teaches in English and Mexican.

C
Scientists from China have created a truly remarkable robot hand! Named the “F-TAC Hand”, it was developed by researchers from Peking University and the Beijing Institute for General Artificial Intelligence, and their exciting work was just published in the famous science journal Nature Machine Intelligence on June 9th, 2025.
What makes this robotic hand so special? It can feel and adjust its grip just like a human hand can. Imagine trying to pick up a ping-pong ball with just your little finger, or holding both a baseball and a golf ball in one hand without dropping them. The F-TAC Hand can do these things! If it picks up a cup full of water, it automatically adjusts its hold to keep the cup steady and prevent spills — reacting faster than you can blink.
The secret lies in its amazing touch sensors. Covering 70% of the hand’s surface, these tiny sensors — packed as densely (密集地) as 10,000 per square centimeter — let the hand feel textures, pressure, and any tiny movement of the object it’s holding. Crucially, these sensors are built right into the hand’s structure, so they don’t make the hand stiff or clumsy. A smart computer program uses this constant touch feedback to instantly decide the best way to grip different objects, just like our brains tell our hands what to do.
Beyond its amazing ability to mimic human touch, the F-TAC Hand also brings practical solutions to real-world problems in robotics. It’s inspired by how our own hands and nerves work. The F-TAC Hand isn’t just cool science; it has real uses. It could lead to much better prosthetic limbs, help robots perform delicate surgery, work safely in dangerous places like nuclear plants, or handle complex jobs in factories.
Made possible partly by China’s powerful “Peng Cheng Cloud Brain Ⅱ”, this “hand of touch intelligence” is a big step forward for China in robotics and AI. Experts believe it brings us closer to robots that can truly understand and interact with the physical world around them. The future of robots just got a lot more skillful!
8. What is TRUE about the F-TAC Hand when grasping objects?
A. It can adjust its grip to prevent spills from a full cup of water.
B. It must use the entire hand to pick up a ping-pong ball.
C. It reacts more slowly than a human blink when picking up items.
D. It cannot grasp objects of different sizes at the same time.
9. What can we learn from the third paragraph?
A. Each sensor covers an area of 10,000 square centimeters.
B. The sensors are integrated into the hand’s structure to keep it stiff.
C. The AI program makes decisions delayed based on touch feedback.
D. The AI program uses real-time touch feedback to control the grip.
10. What does the underlined phrase “mimic” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Imitate. B. Replace. C. Simplify. D. Enhance.
11. What is the main purpose of the author in writing this passage?
A. To introduce the development history of robotic hands.
B. To compare the F-TAC Hand with other robotic hands.
C. To criticize the limitations of previous robotic hands.
D. To highlight the features and applications of the F-TAC Hand.
D
Nearly every week, we hear news about the latest successes and failures in driverless vehicles. But we hear little about how other industries are developing this same kind of technology. One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence, or AI, is agriculture. Companies are experimenting with high-tech tools that can help farmers save time and money, while reducing environment-harming chemicals.
One of the companies is ecoRobotix of SwitzerLand. It created a robot equipped with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm. The robot has four wheels to carry it through the fields in search of weeds. Computer-controlled arms then lower and spray the weeds with small amounts of herbicide(除草剂). Company officials say the robot can fully operate on its own for up to 12 hours a day while being powered by the sun. It uses the same kind of sensor and positioning technology used to guide driverless vehicles. A farmer can also control the equipment through a smart-phone.
The co-founder of ecoRobotix, Aurelien Demaurex, says the farm robot can kill weeds with 20 times 1ess herbicide than traditional methods. This is because the system uses exactly the right amount of chemical in the exact place required to kill the weeds. Currently, farmers spread weed killers over massive areas to destroy unwanted plants.
Another company developing farm robotics is California-based Blue River Technology. The company has a system called "See & Spray", which it claims was the world's first smart sprayer. The system-which connects to the back of a tractor-is also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only the weeds. It can also spray chemicals on wanted plants to help them grow. Ben Chostner, vice-president of business development for Blue River Technology, explains in a company video that See & Spray technology uses the same deep learning methods used in facial recognition. "The first time the machine saw a pigweed, it didn't know what kind of plant it was. But we taught it-by giving it tens of thousands of examples of that pigweed-and now it's an expert in pigweed. "
12. How will AI benefit agriculture?
A. It will fund agriculture research.
B. It contributes to low-cost farming.
C. It can avoid harmful chemicals.
D. It frees all farmers from field work.
13. What do the products of the two companies have in common?
A. They use recognition technology.
B. They are powered by solar energy.
C. They are connected with smart phones.
D They can help wanted plants grow rapidly.
14. What do Ben Chostner's words suggest about the robot?
A. It is environmentally-friendly.
B. It is good at self-improving.
C. It has the learning ability.
D. It can track various plants.
15. What is mainly talked about in the text?
A. The experiment in farming robots.
B. New trend in artificial intelligence.
C. Modern See & Spray technology.
D. Artificial intelligence in agriculture.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Roger Sperry and Robert Ornstein of the California Institute of Technology, Nobel Prize winners, discovered that the human brain has two sides, and each side has different work to do.
The left side of the brain controls language and number and it analyses and reasons. ___16___ It controls our appreciation of music and our sense of rhythm. It is also the right side of our brain which daydreams.
Leonardo da Vinci was the great painter and sculptor. He was also an architect, a scientist and an inventor! ___17___ When he invented machines he used both his imaginative ability and his analytical (分析)ability.
___18___ Albert Einstein enjoyed art, playing the violin and sailing. Indeed, Einstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis, reason and language. He said that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking. The story goes that Einstein was daydreaming one summer's day while sitting on a hill. He imagined that he was riding on sunbeams to the far distance of the universe. Then he found that he had returned to the sun. So he realized that the universe must curve(弯曲).___19___ He then used the left side of his brain to apply analysis, number and reason. And finally he used language to explain it.
Traditional education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our brains. Language, number, analysis and reason are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming. Why don't we give more value to visual thinking? Why jump on one foot if we have two perfectly good legs!
___20___We need to use our imagination to think of solutions to problems and to enjoy emotional and artistic experiences. And we need to be logical and to be able to analyze and organize in order to survive day by day.
A. We benefit by thinking creatively.
B. We all need both sides of our brain.
C. He got this idea by using his imagination.
D. Great scientists and great artists are similar.
E. He was considered crazy for his strange ideas.
F. He used both sides of his brain within each activity.
G. The right side controls our imagination and our understanding of space.

52. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I had booked the flights in somewhat of a hurry with just a carry-on bag, thinking 7 kgs was enough for a 3-day trip to Taupo. I thought I’d given myself enough time to get to the airport, however, as often was the case, I was running late and had to pack my bag with little time left. Confused about what to carry, I stuffed all the clothes in my little bag, taking no notice of the weight.
Thirty minutes before the flight, I was waiting at my terminal (航站楼) in the airport and couldn’t stop smiling. I was too excited to go on a much-needed trip. A little while later, I heard an announcement “Passengers flying to Taupo on Flight NZ5091 are requested to weigh your cabin luggage and collect your tag”. I stood in the line waiting for my turn, clueless about how much my bag would weigh, deep inside hoping not over the weight limit.
When it was my turn, I placed my bag on the weighing scale and whoaaaa!! It was 9.4 kgs. I asked the flight attendant if I could buy $20 extra luggage allowance (行李费) as shown on the app but I was too late for it. Instead, I was asked to pay an additional fee of $65. I either had to pay or leave something away to bring it down to 7 kgs. I asked the attendant whether they would give my stuff back to me if I returned 3 days later and surprisingly I was told I wouldn’t get it back.
To me, a bad luggage experience had the power to completely sour a trip. With no other alternatives, I decided to give up some of my stuff. Unsettled, annoyed, disappointed! As I started removing the items, I saw a lady approaching me. It looked like she had heard the whole thing. She sat down next to me. “Are you OK? I should be able to help you.” She said.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I looked up, surprised, and saw her pointing at her bag.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
While I was worried whether I could get my stuff back, the plane landed.

I am proud to be a member of two cultures. Even though I am only ten years old, I have lived in two countries and in two cultures. I have lived in both Mexico and the United States.
I was born in the state of Michoacán. I was born in a small town called Quinceo. Life there was simple and peaceful. There was a small market where we would go on Sundays. There was a corral where we would go and watch rodeos. After school, my friends and I would go for a swim in a creek. My mom did not work; she stayed at home taking care of our family. Life in Quinceo was nice, but money was sometimes not enough to support us.
In 1996, the day came when my dad decided to bring us to the United States. Leaving my town was hard, but it was important that my family stay together. When I left Mexico, I had a lot of special friends and nice teachers.
When I first came to the United States, I started at a new school in Chicago. I found care and company at the school, among Hispanic people, my friends, and my teacher. She helped me all the time.
My education now is different from the one in Mexico. Here, I am studying in two languages. I feel very happy because I am able to communicate in two languages. In my case, speaking Spanish is an indication of my Mexican heritage. Speaking English is a symbol of my triumph and the struggles that I have as an immigrant in this country. Now that I have been here three years, I am proud to offer my help and support to people who need it.
I urge those who come from Mexico and other countries to learn English and to continue speaking their native language, too. It will help them reach out to others.

Scientists from China have created a truly remarkable robot hand! Named the “F-TAC Hand”, it was developed by researchers from Peking University and the Beijing Institute for General Artificial Intelligence, and their exciting work was just published in the famous science journal Nature Machine Intelligence on June 9th, 2025.
What makes this robotic hand so special? It can feel and adjust its grip just like a human hand can. Imagine trying to pick up a ping-pong ball with just your little finger, or holding both a baseball and a golf ball in one hand without dropping them. The F-TAC Hand can do these things! If it picks up a cup full of water, it automatically adjusts its hold to keep the cup steady and prevent spills — reacting faster than you can blink.
The secret lies in its amazing touch sensors. Covering 70% of the hand’s surface, these tiny sensors — packed as densely (密集地) as 10,000 per square centimeter — let the hand feel textures, pressure, and any tiny movement of the object it’s holding. Crucially, these sensors are built right into the hand’s structure, so they don’t make the hand stiff or clumsy. A smart computer program uses this constant touch feedback to instantly decide the best way to grip different objects, just like our brains tell our hands what to do.
Beyond its amazing ability to mimic human touch, the F-TAC Hand also brings practical solutions to real-world problems in robotics. It’s inspired by how our own hands and nerves work. The F-TAC Hand isn’t just cool science; it has real uses. It could lead to much better prosthetic limbs, help robots perform delicate surgery, work safely in dangerous places like nuclear plants, or handle complex jobs in factories.
Made possible partly by China’s powerful “Peng Cheng Cloud Brain Ⅱ”, this “hand of touch intelligence” is a big step forward for China in robotics and AI. Experts believe it brings us closer to robots that can truly understand and interact with the physical world around them. The future of robots just got a lot more skillful!
8. What is TRUE about the F-TAC Hand when grasping objects?
A. It can adjust its grip to prevent spills from a full cup of water.
B It must use the entire hand to pick up a ping-pong ball.
C. It reacts more slowly than a human blink when picking up items.
D. It cannot grasp objects of different sizes at the same time.
9. What can we learn from the third paragraph?
A. Each sensor covers an area of 10,000 square centimeters.
B. The sensors are integrated into the hand’s structure to keep it stiff.
C. The AI program makes decisions delayed based on touch feedback.
D. The AI program uses real-time touch feedback to control the grip.
10. What does the underlined phrase “mimic” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Imitate. B. Replace. C. Simplify. D. Enhance.
11. What is the main purpose of the author in writing this passage?
A. To introduce the development history of robotic hands.
B. To compare the F-TAC Hand with other robotic hands.
C. To criticize the limitations of previous robotic hands.
D. To highlight the features and applications of the F-TAC Hand.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国研发F-TAC Hand机器人手,仿人触觉强且应用前景广。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“If it picks up a cup full of water, it automatically adjusts its hold to keep the cup steady and prevent spills — reacting faster than you can blink.(如果它拿起一杯水,它会自动调整手部的力度,以保持杯子稳定并防止水洒出——其反应速度甚至快于你眨眼的频率)”可知, F-TAC Hand在抓取物时能够调整其握持力度,以防止装满水的杯子出现溢出的情况”正确。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“A smart computer program uses this constant touch feedback to instantly decide the best way to grip different objects, just like our brains tell our hands what to do.(一个智能的计算机程序会利用这种持续的触觉反馈信息,迅速确定握住不同物体的最佳方式,就像我们的大脑会指挥我们的手去做相应动作一样)”可知,该人工智能程序利用实时触觉反馈来控制抓握力度。故选D。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“It’s inspired by how our own hands and nerves work.(它的设计灵感来源于我们自身的手和神经的工作方式)”以及“human touch(人类触感)”可知,机器人的设计灵感来源于我们自身的手和神经的工作方式,即模仿了人类触感的能力。故划线词意思是“模仿”。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知,2-3段围绕F-TAC Hand机器人手的“特性”(如传感器、抓握能力),第4段围绕它的“应用”(假肢、手术等)展开。由此推知,作者写作本文的目的是突出F-TAC Hand的特性与应用。故选D。

Nearly every week, we hear news about the latest successes and failures in driverless vehicles. But we hear little about how other industries are developing this same kind of technology. One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence, or AI, is agriculture. Companies are experimenting with high-tech tools that can help farmers save time and money, while reducing environment-harming chemicals.
One of the companies is ecoRobotix of SwitzerLand. It created a robot equipped with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm. The robot has four wheels to carry it through the fields in search of weeds. Computer-controlled arms then lower and spray the weeds with small amounts of herbicide(除草剂). Company officials say the robot can fully operate on its own for up to 12 hours a day while being powered by the sun. It uses the same kind of sensor and positioning technology used to guide driverless vehicles. A farmer can also control the equipment through a smart-phone.
The co-founder of ecoRobotix, Aurelien Demaurex, says the farm robot can kill weeds with 20 times 1ess herbicide than traditional methods. This is because the system uses exactly the right amount of chemical in the exact place required to kill the weeds. Currently, farmers spread weed killers over massive areas to destroy unwanted plants.
Another company developing farm robotics is California-based Blue River Technology. The company has a system called "See & Spray", which it claims was the world's first smart sprayer. The system-which connects to the back of a tractor-is also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only the weeds. It can also spray chemicals on wanted plants to help them grow. Ben Chostner, vice-president of business development for Blue River Technology, explains in a company video that See & Spray technology uses the same deep learning methods used in facial recognition. "The first time the machine saw a pigweed, it didn't know what kind of plant it was. But we taught it-by giving it tens of thousands of examples of that pigweed-and now it's an expert in pigweed. "
12. How will AI benefit agriculture?
A. It will fund agriculture research.
B. It contributes to low-cost farming.
C It can avoid harmful chemicals.
D. It frees all farmers from field work.
13. What do the products of the two companies have in common?
A They use recognition technology.
B. They are powered by solar energy.
C. They are connected with smart phones.
D. They can help wanted plants grow rapidly.
14. What do Ben Chostner's words suggest about the robot?
A. It is environmentally-friendly.
B. It is good at self-improving.
C. It has the learning ability.
D. It can track various plants.
15. What is mainly talked about in the text?
A. The experiment in farming robots.
B. New trend in artificial intelligence.
C. Modern See & Spray technology.
D. Artificial intelligence in agriculture.

Roger Sperry and Robert Ornstein of the California Institute of Technology, Nobel Prize winners, discovered that the human brain has two sides, and each side has different work to do.
The left side of the brain controls language and number and it analyses and reasons. ___16___ It controls our appreciation of music and our sense of rhythm. It is also the right side of our brain which daydreams.
Leonardo da Vinci was the great painter and sculptor. He was also an architect, a scientist and an inventor! ___17___ When he invented machines he used both his imaginative ability and his analytical (分析)ability.
___18___ Albert Einstein enjoyed art, playing the violin and sailing. Indeed, Einstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis, reason and language. He said that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking. The story goes that Einstein was daydreaming one summer's day while sitting on a hill. He imagined that he was riding on sunbeams to the far distance of the universe. Then he found that he had returned to the sun. So he realized that the universe must curve(弯曲).___19___ He then used the left side of his brain to apply analysis, number and reason. And finally he used language to explain it.
Traditional education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our brains. Language, number, analysis and reason are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming. Why don't we give more value to visual thinking? Why jump on one foot if we have two perfectly good legs!
___20___We need to use our imagination to think of solutions to problems and to enjoy emotional and artistic experiences. And we need to be logical and to be able to analyze and organize in order to survive day by day.
A. We benefit by thinking creatively.

第二节 课内语法填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
36. I decided to devote ________ (I) to the task of working with the subjects, while he developed the scientific model. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】myself
【解析】
【详解】考查代词。句意:我决定全身心投入到与研究对象合作的工作中,而他则负责构建科学模型。devote oneself to...是固定短语,意为“致力于;献身于”。句子主语是I,所以要用反身代词myself。故填myself。
37. It is ________ (estimate) that the project will last four years, generating widespread interest among the public. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】estimated
【解析】
【详解】考查固定句型。句意:据估计,该项目将持续四年,引起公众的广泛兴趣。It为形式主语,that引导的主语从句为真正的主语,与estimate“估计”为被动关系,本空用过去分词estimated,与is构成一般现在时的被动语态。故填estimated。
38. Born in 1930, against his parents’ career wishes, he chose agriculture to address farmers’ poor harvests and food ________ (short). (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】shortage
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:他出生于1930年,违背了父母的职业意愿,选择了农业来解决农民收成不佳和粮食短缺的问题。本空作address的宾语,用名词shortage“短缺”,作宾语。表示抽象概念是不可数名词。故填shortage。
39. ____ excited me in particular was enjoying the irresistible moon cakes, known as a symbol of the blessing. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】What
【解析】
【详解】考查主语从句。句意:特别让我兴奋的是品尝了不可抗拒的月饼,被称为祝福的象征。空处引导主语从句,引导词在从句中充当主语,指物,应用连接代词what,注意单词位于句首,首字母大写。故填What。
40. It is uncertain ________ he can come to Jenny’s birthday party or not. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】whether
【解析】
【详解】考查主语从句。句意:他是否能来参加珍妮的生日聚会还不确定。根据句子可知,It是形式主语,“ he can come to Jenny’s birthday party or not”是真正的主语从句,从句不缺成分,结合句意和句中or not可知,表示“是否”,应用连词whether...or not引导该主语从句。故填whether。
41. An exhibition at the Jiushi Art Museum in Shanghai is featuring artwork inspired by Go, or weiqi in Chinese, ________ originated in China more than 4,000 years ago. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】which
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:上海久事美术馆正在举办一场展览,展出的艺术品灵感来自围棋(中文称为“围棋”),它起源4000多年前的中国。本空引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为Go, or weiqi in Chinese,指物,且关系词代替先行词在从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which引导。故填which。
42. Having spent over five decades in hybrid rice research, Yuan has helped China work a great wonder, ________ (feed) nearly one-fifth of the world’s population with less than 9 percent of the world’s total farmland. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】feeding
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:袁隆平花了50多年的时间研究杂交水稻,帮助中国创造了一个伟大的奇迹,用不到世界总农田的9%养活了世界近五分之一的人口。句子主干成分完整,空处为非谓语,feed“养活”和Yuan逻辑上是主动关系,因此用feed的现在分词形式,作状语。故填feeding。
43. It is clarified that there are still a large number of people facing __________ (poor) in the area. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】poverty
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:明确指出,该地区仍有大量贫困人口。空格处位于动词之后,因此需要填入名词,poor的名词为“poverty”为不可数名词。故填poverty。
44. The goal of using different organic farming methods is to grow good food while ______(avoid) damage to the environment or to people’s health. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】avoiding
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:使用不同的有机农业方法的目的是种植优质的食物,同时避免对环境和人体健康的损害。avoid和methods之间为主动关系,应用现在分词作状语。故填avoiding。
45. It took me a long time ________(digest) the theory put forward at the meeting. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】to digest
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:我花了很长时间才理解会议上提出的那个理论。it takes/took sb. some time to do sth.是固定句型,意为“做某事花费某人多长时间”。其中it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式to do sth.。故填to digest。
46. Pesticides kill both harmful and ________ (benefit) organisms, linger in soil and water, and may cause illnesses like cancer. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】beneficial
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:农药不仅会杀死有害生物,也会杀死有益生物,还会残留在土壤和水中,并可能引发诸如癌症之类的疾病。空处和harmful并列,作修饰organisms的定语,形容词beneficial符合题意,意为“有益的”。故填beneficial。
47. Given that the driver injured the passer-by, he was so severely punished that his parents were ________ (frustrate). (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】frustrated
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:鉴于司机撞伤了行人,他受到了严厉的惩罚,以至于他的父母感到很沮丧。此处需要填形容词作表语,修饰主语“his parents”,表示人“感到沮丧的”,应用-ed结尾的形容词frustrated。故填frustrated。
48. ________(blame) by his teacher, the boy was frustrated and couldn’t concentrate on his study. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】Blamed
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:由于受到老师的责备,这个男孩感到很沮丧,无法专心学习了。句中已有谓语动词,所以用非谓语动词形式。逻辑主语the boy与blame之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词作原因状语。故填Blamed。
49. Accordingly, he had he handle of the pump ________(remove) so that it could be used. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】removed
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:因此,他让人把泵的把手柄拿掉,以便使用。分析句子可知,主句有谓语had,空处填非谓语动词,have sth. done是固定结构,意为“使某事被做,让别人来做某事”,因此填过去分词做宾补。故填removed。
50. The number of visitors to the museum ________ (increase) by nearly 6% in the past few years. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】has increased
【解析】
【详解】考查动词时态。句意:在过去的几年里,博物馆的参观人数增长了近6%。根据时间状语“in the past few years”可知,句子应使用现在完成时,主语The number of visitors是单数概念,助动词用has。故填has increased。

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
52. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I had booked the flights in somewhat of a hurry with just a carry-on bag thinking 7 kgs was enough for a 3-day trip to Taupo. I thought I’d given myself enough time to get to the airport, however, as often was the case, I was running late and had to pack my bag with little time left. Confused about what to carry, I stuffed all the clothes in my little bag, taking no notice of the weight.
Thirty minutes before the flight, I was waiting at my terminal (航站楼) in the airport and couldn’t stop smiling. I was too excited to go on a much-needed trip. A little while later, I heard an announcement “Passengers flying to Taupo on Flight NZ5091 are requested to weigh your cabin luggage and collect your tag”. I stood in the line waiting for my turn, clueless about how much my bag would weigh, deep inside hoping not over the weight limit.
When it was my turn, I placed my bag on the weighing scale and whoaaaa!! It was 9.4 kgs. I asked the flight attendant if I could buy $20 extra luggage allowance (行李费) as shown on the app but I was too late for it. Instead, I was asked to pay an additional fee of $65. I either had to pay or leave something away to bring it down to 7 kgs. I asked the attendant whether they would give my stuff back to me if I returned 3 days later and surprisingly I was told I wouldn’t get it back.
To me, a bad luggage experience had the power to completely sour a trip. With no other alternatives, I decided to give up some of my stuff. Unsettled, annoyed, disappointed! As I started removing the items, I saw a lady approaching me. It looked like she had heard the whole thing. She sat down next to me. “Are you OK? I should be able to help you.” She said.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;

I looked up, surprised, and saw her pointing at her bag.

While I was worried whether I could get my stuff back, the plane landed.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 I looked up, surprised, and saw her pointing at her bag. She said he didn’t take many things and could help me share some of my belongings. I couldn’t believe the help from a stranger. But, I thought to myself “this is the best way.” I am grateful to her for her kindness and transferred my overweight items to her bag. I managed to get on the plane without paying any extra fees. When we got on the plane, our seats were far apart and we didn’t communicate much, so I knew very little about this stranger.
While I was worried whether I could get my stuff back, the plane landed. There were a lot of people getting out of the plane. I was waiting for my turn and waiting for the strange woman to pass me by and return my stuff. In fact, I had been prepared for the worst. All sorts of disturbing thoughts ran through my mind. Just then, the strange woman tapped me on the shoulder. And voluntarily returned my things. I thanked the strange woman from the bottom of my heart. It also gave me a new faith in humanity.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,文章主要讲述了作者在登机前很是匆忙,并没有检查行李箱的重量,结果在登机时,被要求额外支付65美元的费用。在没有其他选择定放弃自己的一些东西时,一位女士主动提出可以把超重的行李转移到她的包里,并在飞机降落后主动归还了作者的物品。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“我惊讶地抬起头,看见她指着她的包。”。可知,第一段可描写陌生人帮助了作者使得作者成功登机而没有支付额外的费用,但是登机之后,作者对陌生人没有太多的了解。
②由第二段首句内容“正当我还在担心能否拿回我的东西时,飞机降落了”可知,第二段可描写作者的担心,最终陌生人主动归还了作者的物品,作者表示感激以及感悟。
2. 续写线索:作者惊呆——得到陌生人的帮助——成功登机——不了解陌生人——有些担忧——陌生人主动归还物品——感激——感悟
3. 词汇激活

②帮助:help/assist
③成功做某事:manage to do sth/succeed in doing sth
④感谢:thank/appreciate
