Something must be done as soon as possible __8__ (save) frogs. If we don't punish those __9__ sell and kill frogs to make money, then one day all of us __10__(punish) by nature for failing to protect them.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。青蛙是一种对人类有益的动物。但是现在青蛙越来越少了。
1.happily [考查副词。此处修饰现在分词singing,作状语,应使用副词形式。故填happily。]
2.insects [考查名词复数。句意:它们能够捕捉快速移动的昆虫。insect是可数名词,前面没有表示单数概念的修饰词,应使用复数形式。故填insects。]
3.as [考查介词。be regarded as“被认为是……”为固定搭配。故填as。]
4.are getting [考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意:但是现在青蛙正变得越来越少。根据语境可知,此处应使用现在进行时,表示现在或现在这一阶段正在进行的动作以因frogs为复数形式。故填are getting。]
5.on [考查介词。句意:这是因为它们被它们的主要敌人——人类杀死,并作为一道佳肴摆在桌子上。故填on。]
6.responsible [考查形容词。be responsible for“对……负责;是……的原因”。此处作表语,应使用形容词。故填responsible。]
7.eating [考查非谓语动词。句意:在食用中毒的昆虫时,由于饮用了有毒的水,青蛙被杀死。此处的主语是frogs,当时间状语从句的主语与主句主语一致且有be动词时,可以省略从句的主语和be动词。此处为frogs are eating的省略形式。故填eating。]
8.to save [考查非谓语动词。句意:为了拯救青蛙,要尽快采取行动。此处为不定式作目的状语。]
9.who [考查定语从句。此处为定语从句,先行词是those“那些人”,关系词在从句中作主语,应使用关系代词who引导。]
10.will be punished [考查动词的时态和语态。句意:如果我们不惩罚那些为了赚钱而卖青蛙和杀青蛙的人,那么总有一天我们所有人都会因为没有保护好青蛙而受到大自然的惩罚。if引导的条件状语从句遵循主将从现的原则,且us与punish之间为被动关系。故填will be punished。]
[单元加餐练]
Ⅰ.阅读理解
I always use maps.Not the tiny, annoyingly limited ones on smartphones.I use real paper maps that you open from a rectangle and rarely refold properly.Maps you can take out to rapidly scan on the road in unfamiliar places.Paper maps are there for you every time you need them and they don't need recharging.They simply and dependably orient (指方向) and inform.
I've traveled in and out of the state with my grandson Connor often enough to have long since introduced him to this way of getting from place to place.His first response as an 8yearold was “Grandma, just use the GPS.” But that was no help since the one in my old car was hopelessly out of date.As for a smartphone, I didn't own one.And so Connor is learning to use paper maps too.Opening one myself is akin to texting while driving, perhaps even more distracting for me.I've done it, but I've reformed.
Our next trip will be to visit friends in Connecticut, and I've just picked up new copies of the state's road maps.I've yellowhighlighted our route from Providence, Rhode Island, to Old Saybrook and Durham in Connecticut, then back to Providence.It is a pretty familiar route for me, as I've spent multiple summers doing geologic fieldwork in the forests and the Connecticut River Valley.Still, I wouldn't think of driving without paper maps.It would be too out of character.
Going over the route with now 13yearold Connor so that he can follow along and occasionally answer a routing question while I'm driving may take some perseverance (毅力) on my part.He looks at road maps the same way he looks at my old college typewriter or my mom's Nokia phone.I could really annoy Connor by informing him of directional signs from the sun, moon, and stars.But enough is enough for a teenager.By the time he's driving himself, I'll put new maps of India surrounding states in his car.Who knows when a cellphone might quit or a GPS system might stop working?
1.What does the author like about paper maps?
A.They are very cheap.
B.They are quite reliable.
C.They can be easily carried.
D.They can be neatly refolded.
2.What does the underlined word “akin” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Familiar. B.Similar.
C.Suitable. D.Dangerous.
3.Why does the author need road maps during her next trip to Connecticut?
A.She is used to driving with maps.
B.She is unfamiliar with this place.
C.Her grandson insists on bringing maps.
D.Her geologic fieldwork requires maps.
4.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Connor now likes paper maps very much.
B.Connor's future cars might not place GPS devices.
C.Teenagers today are not used to using paper maps.
D.Connor's attitude to paper maps annoyed the author.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者喜欢用纸质地图,并且也教给自己的孙子使用纸质地图的故事。
1.B [细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Paper maps are there for you every time you need them and they don't need recharging.”可知,只要你需要,纸质地图就在你身边,而且不需要充电。由此可知,作者喜欢纸质地图是因为它相当可靠。故选B。]
2.B [词义猜测题。根据划线词所在句中的“perhaps even more distracting for me.(对我来说可能更让人分心)”及常识可知,开车发短信会让人分心。由此可知,此处是说,开车打开地图就跟开车发短信一样,会让作者分心。由此可知,划线词akin与similar意思相近。故选B。]
3.A [细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Still, I wouldn't think of driving without paper maps.It would be too out of character.”可知,不过,没有纸质地图,我是不会开车的。那太不符合我的性格了。由此可知,作者下一次旅行依然会使用纸质地图是因为她已经习惯这样了。故选A。]
4.C [推理判断题。根据最后一段的“He looks at road maps the same way he looks at my old college typewriter or my mom's Nokia phone.及But enough is enough for a teenager.”可知,他看公路地图的样子就像他看我大学里的旧打字机或我妈妈的诺基亚手机一样。但对一个十几岁的孩子来说已经足够了。由此推知,今天的青少年都不习惯使用纸质地图。故选C。]
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
It takes so long to organize your room and each closet,but it only takes a few days for you to return to your old bad habits.Learning how to organize something is one thing,but staying organized is a completely different matter.Here is some advice for you to follow through.
Set deadlines for yourself.__1__ Therefore,you have to set deadlines.For example,if you have a lot of tasks to finish,you need to set deadlines for each task.This way can urge you to finish all the tasks in an organized way.
__2__ One of the reasons why you may be struggling to stay organized is that you spend too much time on one task and then leave no time for other things you have to do on a day.Instead of making sure that you do Task A perfectly,make sure that you do a great job of it.__3__
Reward yourself for tasks you've accomplished.If you want to continue to follow through on staying organized,don't just do one task and move on.__4__ If you never stop to let yourself know what a great job you're doing,or take a break from time to time,then you're likely to feel stressed out and refuse to stay organized.
__5__ Wanting to stay organized doesn't mean that you have to do everything alone.If you want to clean your household,you should make sure that anyone else sharing the space with you also does their share of tasks; if you want to keep things running smoothly at work,take responsibilities together with your colleagues.
A.Avoid perfection.
B.Turn to others for advice.
C.Cooperate as much as you can.
D.Then give yourself enough time to move on.
E.You should reward yourself for saving much time.
F.Instead,give yourself a treat that delights you most.
G.To stay organized,you need to get things done on time.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述如何保持有条理。
1.G [根据空后“Therefore,you have to set deadlines.”可知,做事情要为自己设定时限。选项G符合语境。故选G。]
2.A [根据本段的内容,尤其是空后一句可知,不要因在一件事情上追求完美而耽误了其他必做的事情。选项A符合语境。故选A。]
3.D [根据空前“Instead of making sure that you do Task A perfectly,make sure that you do a great job of it.”可知,这样能节省出时间做其他必做的事情。选项D符合语境。故选D。]
4.F [根据本段主题句“Reward yourself for tasks you've accomplished.”和空前一句“If you want to continue to follow through on staying organized,don't just do one task and move on.”可知,当一件任务完成,不要马上进行下一项,此处表转折。选项F符合语境。故选F。]
5.C [根据本段内容,尤其是空后一句可知,作者强调合作的重要性。选项C符合语境。故选C。]

Adam, Nick, and Tom were best friends.Five years after their graduation from college, Nick called Adam and Tom, inviting them to celebrate his birthday on his personal yacht (游艇).They got very excited.
It was a bright and sunny summer day.As Nick was studying the safety measures of the sea journey, he saw Adam and Tom coming towards his yacht.With huge hugs and smiles on every face, the three greeted each other in their usual way.“Thank you boys for coming and making my birthday even more special,” said Nick.
“But before getting started, hope you both know there is a danger zone at a particular point on this sea, ” warned Adam.
“Don't worry.I will stay away from it.Now let the party begin!” Nick responded, starting to turn the steering wheel (方向盘) of the yacht.
Treating the friends on the beautiful white yacht sailing on the blue water was a perfect idea.They were having a wonderful time, talking, eating and joking.How time flew! It started getting dark.
“Hey guys! It's time to go back,” Tom shouted.
“Mr.Sailor, turn your ship's wheel and take us back home,” said Adam.
Little did they know they were going to encounter lifethreatening challenges ahead.Unknowingly, Nick crossed the danger zone Adam had mentioned earlier.When realizing this, Nick decided to make a turn immediately.Unfortunately, a strange noise came from the engine and then the yacht stopped.Expert at mending machines, Adam offered to examine the engine and asked Nick to fetch the tool box.Nick was hurrying to get it when he slipped, falling into the sea water.
“Nick!” Tom and Adam screamed.
Panicked, Nick started shouting for help.Tom rushed inside the yacht to get a life jacket to rescue Nick, but didn't find one.Instead, he found a long rope and out he rushed with it.

[参考范文]
Just then Adam shouted on top of his voice, “Nick! Look, there's a shark behind you!” Turning his head, Nick was shocked to find a black figure approaching him.Helpless and frightened, Nick swam towards the yacht like crazy.Tom quickly threw the rope down at Nick, who succeeded in grasping it.With all their strength, Tom and Adam pulled Nick up from the water before the shark could swallow him.But the hungry animal didn't give up, swimming around the yacht for its dinner.Terrified as the three guys were, they knew they must do something to escape from the danger.
What they had to do was restart the yacht.Though wet through, Nick fetched the tool box in no time.With the tools Adam carefully examined the engine, found out the exact cause of its failure and managed to get the engine working.Its wonderful sound had everyone on board burst into cheers.With Nick turning the steering wheel, the yacht left the danger zone at full speed, leaving the lonely shark far behind.The young guys waved happily at it, heading straight back.
