A. known as B. known by C. known for 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：鼓浪屿，厦门的一座小岛，因其优美宁静的环境，被誉为“海上花园”。 be known as意为“被称为、作为……而闻名”，后接身份、称号、别称；be known for意为“因……而闻名”，后接出名的原因；be known by意为“被……所熟知”，后接人。句中“a garden on the sea（海上花园）”是鼓浪屿的别称，因此选用known as。 11.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了一名前往山村小学支教的志愿者的经历：作者怀着忐忑的心情来到山村支教，努力为孩子带来改变却一度怀疑自己付出的意义，最终原本沉默寡言的女孩雯用一盏灯笼温暖了作者，让作者领悟到志愿的真谛：志愿服务并不总是宏大的，它往往是双向温暖、彼此照亮的平凡联结。 【16题详解】 句意：能来这里的小学校教书，我感到很兴奋，却也有一点紧张。 根据“but a little”可知，此处是有转折关系的，前文描述作者很兴奋，但同时也会又些紧张，“nervous”符合句意。 【17题详解】 句意：后来我发现，他们对我十分友好，这让我彻底放松下来。 后文“this made me relaxed”描述了作者发现学生对自己很友好之后，这让作者感到很放松，“friendly to”符合句意，表示“对……友好”。 【18题详解】 句意：大部分孩子都生性安静，尽管休息的时候他们也会追跑打闹、开怀大笑。 前文“Most were quiet”描述了大部分学生很安静，后文“they ran and laughed at break”描述了休息时他们会跑着大笑，二者是让步转折关系，“though”符合句意。 【19题详解】 句意：有一个叫雯的女孩，总是独自坐在角落里，一言不发。 前文“always sat alone in the corner”表示雯总是独自坐在角落，第四段“That was the first time I heard her voice.”是说第一次听见她说话是停电那次，说明雯平时沉默寡言，“silent”符合句意。 【20题详解】 句意：但雯并没有抬头。 根据后文“She was just drawing circles on the desk with her finger.”可知，前文作者说完话后，雯只顾着用手指桌面画圈，说明她没有抬头回应，“look up”符合句意。 【21题详解】 句意：每节课都是精心准备的。 后文“But my effort seemed to make little difference.”描述了作者疑惑努力没有用，反衬出作者之前是认真备课，carefully planned表示“精心准备的”，符合语境。 【22题详解】 句意：我不确定自己做的事是否有意义。 前文“But my effort seemed to make little difference.”描述了作者的努力似乎没起到什么作用，因此作者会怀疑自己做的事是否有意义，“meaningful”符合句意。 【23题详解】 句意：是雯手里举着一盏灯笼。 第五段“In my last class, she gave me the lantern.”提到第二天雯把这个物品送给了作者，且全文结尾呼应提到“quiet lantern”，可知停电时雯拿的就是灯笼，“lantern”符合句意。 【24题详解】 句意：她笑着说：“这样你就永远都有光了。” 灯笼作用是发光，雯送灯笼给作者，对应“永远都有光”的语义，也呼应全文“光”的主题，“light”符合句意。 【25题详解】 句意：我本是来给这里送光的，却发现光也悄悄回到了我身上。 作者本来是来山村支教给予光明，最后却收获了来自孩子的温暖，即光也被回馈给了作者，“returned”符合句意。 IV. 阅读理解 （共两节，满分 45 分） 第一节 阅读以下 A、B、C、D 四篇短文，根据短文内容，从题中所给 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳答案。（每小题 2 分，共 40 分） A Join Our School Wildlife Watch!

Several violins hung from the dark walls, quietly waiting to be chosen. Right then, I thought about my past. My childhood was all about the hobbies I had tried, most of which had been chosen by my mom. She wanted me to join the swimming team, “Tara. Your sister is a good swimmer; surely you will be, too.” Yet she refused to see that I was afraid of water. Every Saturday, I would jump into the cold water with all my strength and swim to the other side of the pool. I would have given it up if I had not heard my father’s encouraging shouts to cheer me on. Then came a turning point in my life, the day our school music group visited my class and gave a show. The drums bored me. The flutes (笛子) bored me. But the violin... Ah, the violin. It made the sweetest sound I’d ever heard! My heart was dancing along with the beautiful music. Holding the paper with the orchestra (管弦乐队) director’s permission, I ran all the way home after school, and handed it to my parents with a fear that they might say no. They didn’t. Mom was happy to see me finally excited about something, and Dad winked (眨眼示意) at me while signing the paper quickly. I have now been practising the violin for 4 years, and have improved quickly. Before long, I won the first place in the local orchestra... 31. How did Tara feel when she swam? A. Nervous. B. Excited. C. Proud. D. Relaxed. 32. What made Tara feel excited during the school music group’s visit? A. The sound of the drums. B. The sound of the violin. C. The music group’s show. D. All the instruments. 33. When did Tara begin to practice the violin? A. 1 year ago. B. 2 years ago. C. 3 years ago. D. 4 years ago. 34. What helped Tara win the first place in the local orchestra? A. Her mother’s push. B. Her father’s encouragement. C. Her love for the violin. D. The school music group’s help. 35. What can we learn from the story? A. It’s never too young to learn. B. Interest is the best teacher. C. Practice makes perfect. D. Like mother, like daughter. 【答案】31. A 32. B 33. D 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了塔拉从尝试母亲安排的游泳爱好，到因学校音乐团的小提琴表演找到自己的兴趣所在，最终通过练习小提琴取得成就的故事。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Yet she refused to see I was afraid of water.”可知，塔拉游泳时感到害怕，所以一说到游泳就会觉得很紧张。故选A。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“But the violin... ah, the violin. It made the sweetest sound I’d ever heard! My heart was dancing along with the beautiful music.”可知，小提琴的声音让塔拉感到兴奋。故选B。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“I now have been practicing the violin for 4 years”可知，塔拉四年前开始练习小提琴。故选D。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据“But the violin... ah, the violin. It made the sweetest sound I’d ever heard! My heart was dancing along with the beautiful music.”以及“I now have been practicing the violin for 4 years, and have improved quickly. Before long I won the first place in the local orchestra...”可知，塔拉因为对小提琴的热爱，坚持练习并快速进步，最终在当地管弦乐队中获得第一名，所以是对小提琴的热爱帮助了她。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。塔拉因为对小提琴的兴趣，主动去学习并取得成功，这体现了“兴趣是最好的老师”。故选B。 C A new study found that 52 of the most common species (物种) of birds in the USA have shrunk in size in the past 38 years. Scientists say this is because of climate change. This shrinking in size follows a rule called Bergmann’s rule. The rule says that animals in cooler areas are usually larger than those in warmer areas. Larger animals are able to keep warmer. That is the reason why animals in cold areas are larger. As global warming affects (影响) the planet, animals now have to deal with rising temperatures. Some of them shrink in size. Scientists studied over 70,000 birds. They discovered that some birds in North America were shrinking in size. Studies on deer, insects and fish also show similar facts. What does this mean for these species? Global warming is happening faster than ever before. So, animals may not be able to change fast enough. And when species shrink, other things get different. When an animal’s body shrinks, it may not be able to give birth to as many young as before—this may affect the size of a species’ population. It is possible that scientists haven’t yet completely understood how changes in size may affect the ability of animals to be alive. This shows the bigger problem with climate change—we aren’t always able to predict what will happen—we aren’t always able to predict what will happen when the earth’s temperatures keep rising. And that is the real danger. 36. The underlined word “shrunk” in this passage means ________. A. become smaller B. disappeared C. increased D. grown 37. Why are animals in cold areas larger than those in warmer areas? A. Because they eat more food. B. Because they sleep longer. C. Because they can keep warmer. D. Because they need to be faster. 38. If a species’ body gets smaller, ________. A. the species’ population may become smaller B. the species may change faster C. the earth may become warmer D. there will be more pollution on the earth 39. The writer thinks the biggest problem with global warming is ________. A. the earth’s temperatures keep rising B. humans can’t predict what will happen C. there will be fewer species on the earth D. there will be more pollution on the earth 40. What can be the best title for this passage? A. How Global Warming Affects the Planet B. Why the Earth’s Temperature Is Rising C. How Animals on the Earth Are Changing D. Why Some Animals Are Getting Smaller 【答案】36. A 37. C 38. A 39. B 40. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了一项研究发现：全球变暖导致多种常见动物体型不断缩小，解释了该现象背后的原理与影响，指出气候变暖真正的危险在于其影响的不可预测性。 【36题详解】 后文多次提到“shrinking in size”，结合伯格曼法则：气候变暖温度升高，温暖地区动物体型更小，可推知shrunk意为“变小”，对应A选项“become smaller”。 【37题详解】 第二段“Larger animals are able to keep warmer. That is the reason why animals in cold areas are larger.”描述了更大的动物能更好地保持体温，这就是寒冷地区动物体型更大的原因，对应C选项“因为他们可以保持体温”。 【38题详解】 第四段“When an animal’s body shrinks, it may not be able to give birth to as many young as before—this may affect the size of a species’ population.”描述了动物体型缩小后，能生育的后代比之前更少，这会影响物种种群的规模，即物种种群数量可能变小，对应A选项。 【39题详解】 最后一段“we aren’t always able to predict what will happen”描述了全球变暖最大的问题是，当地球持续升温时，人类无法预知会发生什么，对应B选项。 【40题详解】 本文核心围绕“一些动物体型缩小”展开：开篇提出研究发现，接着解释缩小的原因，最后说明影响。D选项“为什么一些动物变得更小”贴合主旨。 D One day in 1903 French scientist Edouard Benedictus climbed high to get something on a high shelf in his laboratory. He carelessly hit an empty glass flask (烧瓶) and it fell to the stone floor. Benedictus climbed down, expecting a mess, but he found a surprise. The glass hadn’t broken into a million pieces! It had cracked (破裂), but it had held together. Benedictus wondered why. His helper explained he had used the flask to hold liquid plastic (液态塑料). Then he had put the flask aside and forgotten to wash it. The liquid plastic dried, so the flask looked empty. Benedictus found that the dried plastic had kept the cracked glass from falling apart. The same week, Benedictus read a report about a car accident in the newspaper. The car was a new and exciting invention, and many people were driving fast on the roads. When accidents happened, people were often hurt by flying broken glass. Suddenly Benedictus thought of the broken flask. Could his accident be something useful? Benedictus spent a lot of time in the lab, trying to find out the best way to make safety glass for cars. Finally, Benedictus put some liquid plastic between two pieces of glass and pressed them together. When he hit it, the “glass-and-plastic sandwich” cracked, but it didn’t break into small pieces. Benedictus succeeded. He wrote in his diary, “I produced my first piece of Triplex (the name for his invention) —full of promise for the future.” Benedictus was right. His method of putting plastic between pieces of glass is still used today. And that’s how a careless accident led to an invention that made us all safer! 41. How did Benedictus feel when he saw the cracked glass flask? A. Angry. B. Sorry. C. Excited. D. Surprised. 42. The glass flask didn’t fall apart because ________. A. the floor was not so hard B. the shelf was not so high C. there was dried plastic in it D. Benedictus’ helper caught it 43. When did Benedictus decide to work on his invention? A. When he read a news report. B. When he climbed high on a shelf. C. After his helper had a car accident. D. After his helper gave him a suggestion. 44. What do we know about Triplex? A. It was invented in 1900. B. It had plastic on its cover. C. It got popular as soon as it was invented. D. It had an influence on today's safety glass. 45. Which of the following is the best title of the passage? A. Magic of Plastic B. Lessons from Accidents C. A Great Accidental Invention D. Daily Life of a French Scientist 【答案】41. D 42. C 43. A 44. D 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了法国科学家爱德华·贝内迪克特斯从实验室一次意外掉落未散裂的烧瓶中获得灵感，受车祸报道启发研发出至今仍被使用的安全玻璃Triplex，讲述了这项改变安全防护的伟大发明由意外诞生的过程。 【41题详解】 第二段“Benedictus climbed down, expecting a mess, but he found a surprise.”描述了Benedictus本以为会看到一片狼藉，但是他发现了一个惊喜，所以当他看见破裂的玻璃烧瓶的时候，感到非常惊讶。 【42题详解】 第三段“Benedictus found that the dried plastic had kept the cracked glass from falling apart.”描述了Benedictus发现是干塑料让裂了的玻璃没有散开，选项C“里面有干塑料”符合。 【43题详解】 第四段“When accidents happened, people were often hurt by flying broken glass. Suddenly Benedictus thought of the broken flask.Benedictus”描述了Benedictus偶然发现烧瓶的特殊情况后，在看到报纸上关于车祸的报道（车祸中碎玻璃经常伤人），才联想到把自己的发现做成有用的发明，选项A“当他看到一篇新闻报道时”符合。 【44题详解】 最后一段“His method of putting plastic between pieces of glass is still used today.”提到Benedictus把塑料夹在玻璃间的方法至今还在使用，说明这项发明对现在的安全玻璃仍有影响，因此选D；A选项发明时间错（故事发生在1903年，发明晚于这个时间）；B选项塑料位置错（塑料夹在两块玻璃中间，不是在表面）；C选项原文未提“一发明就流行”。 【45题详解】 全文讲的是一次无心的意外事故，最终催生了造福人类的安全玻璃发明，结尾也点出“how a careless accident led to an invention”，因此选项C“A Great Accidental Invention”最贴合主旨。 第二节 E 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 There are several reasons why school uniforms are a good idea. ____46____ The students feel that they belong to a particular (特定的) group.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了校服的诸多好处以及存在的一些争议。 【46题详解】 前文“There are several reasons why school uniforms are a good idea.”是文章的总起句，所以本段主要描述学生穿校服是一个好主意的几个原因，下文“The students feel that they belong to a particular (特定的) group. When every student in the school wears the uniform, nobody has to worry about fashion. Everybody wears the same style of clothes.”描述了学生在学校穿统一校服的情况。选项C“首先，校服有助于学校看起来规范。”符合语境。 【47题详解】 下文“On the edge (边缘) of the jacket, there is a piece of cloth that gives off light in the dark. When the children are walking or cycling to school on dark mornings, car drivers can easily see them.”描述了可以发光的校服在学生上学的路上可以起到提醒的作用，选项B“校服可能会以意想不到的方式发挥作用。”符合语境。 【48题详解】 后文“The answer to this question is not clear. One study in America found that students’ grades improved a little after the school introduced uniforms.”描述了校服对成绩的影响，此处提出了一个问题，作者在随后给出了回答，选项D“但是校服能帮助提高学校水平吗？”符合语境。 【49题详解】 上文“One study in America found that students’ grades improved a little after the school introduced uniforms.”描述了美国的一项研究发现，学校推出校服后，学生的成绩略有提高。所以后文应是讲其他的研究，选项E“其他研究表明，校服和学生的成绩之间没有联系。”符合语境。 【50题详解】 前文“Some very good schools don’t have a uniform policy.”以及后文“Students at about 90 percent of British secondary schools wear uniforms.”描述了一些好学校没有校服政策，但是大约90%的英国中学的学生都穿校服，所以校服很受学生欢迎，此处存在转折关系，选项A“然而，校服仍然很受欢迎。”符合语境。 V. 情景交际 根据情景提示，完成句子。（每小题2分，共10分） 51. A: _____________________? B: The ring is made of gold. 【答案】What’s the ring made of 【解析】 【详解】根据答语“The ring is made of gold.”可知，问句是询问戒指由什么制成。“由……制成 (能看出原材料)”用固定短语be made of；主语the ring是单数，be动词用is；此句为一般现在时的特殊疑问句，用疑问词what引导，故填What’s the ring made of。 52. A: I don’t think sixteen-year-olds should be allowed to drive. B: ____________________. They are too young. 【答案】I agree with you/I think you’re right/I agree 【解析】 【详解】上文表达了一个观点，后文“They are too young.”他们太年轻了和上文表达的观点一致，所以此处表示同意对方观点，I agree with you/I think you’re right/I agree均符合语境。 53. A: ______________________________? B: It might be Linda’s schoolbag. 【答案】Whose schoolbag is this 【解析】 【详解】答句提到“It might be Linda’s schoolbag.”，说明A在询问“这是谁的书包”，英语中询问物品归属的常用句型为：Whose+名词+be动词+主语，可以表达为：Whose schoolbag is this，符合语境。 54. A: ____________________? B: I can’t find my volleyball. 【答案】What’s wrong##What’s the matter 【解析】 【详解】答语描述了一件事，“我找不到我的排球了”。因此，问句询问对方发生什么事了，故What’s wrong或者What’s the matter两种问法均符合语境。 55. A: ____________________? B: The shoes are used for seeing in the dark. 【答案】What are the shoes used for 【解析】 【详解】答句介绍了鞋子的作用，因此问句应该询问“鞋子的作用是什么？”，用疑问词what来提问，What are the shoes used for符合语境，注意句首首字母大写。 VI. 看图写话 根据所给图片和提示词，写出一个与图画情景相符的句子。 56. allow, museum _________________________________________________________ 57. used to _________________________________________________________ 58. must, belong _________________________________________________________ 59. invent, 1876 _________________________________________________________ 60. taste _________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. Taking photos is not allowed in the museum. 57. He used to be very short. 58. This guitar must belong to Paul. 59. The telephone was invented in 1876. 60. This mooncake tastes delicious. 【解析】 【56题详解】 图片和提示词表明“博物馆内不允许拍照。”此句应该使用一般现在时的被动语态结构。主语用动名词短语Taking photos，表示“拍照”这件事；in the museum用作地点状语。因此“Taking photos is not allowed in the museum.”符合语境。 【57题详解】 图片和提示词表明“他过去很矮。”he作主语；used to be very short表示他过去的状态。因此“He used to be very short.”符合语境。 【58题详解】 图片和提示词表明“这把吉他肯定是保罗的。”This guitar作主语；情态动词must表示肯定的推测，后跟动词原形；belong to Paul表示“属于保罗的”。因此用“This guitar must belong to Paul.”来描述图片。 【59题详解】 图片和提示词表明“电话是在 1876 年发明的。”此句应使用一般过去时的被动语态。主语是The telephone；was invented作谓语；in 1876作时间状语。因此“The telephone was invented in 1876.”符合语境。 【60题详解】 图片和提示词表明“这块月饼味道非常美味。”This mooncake作主语；tastes是动词是第三人称单数，作谓语；delicious作表语，即用“This mooncake tastes delicious.”描述图片内容。 VII. 短文填词 根据语境或具体提示填空，完成短文。（每小题1分，共10分） You may think you cannot live through summer without an air conditioner (空调). But in ancient China, hand fans were almost the only help for people to drive the heat away. Chinese people ____61____ (start) to use hand fans over 2,000 years ago.

Several violins hung from the dark walls, quietly waiting to be chosen. Right then, I thought about my past. My childhood was all about the hobbies I had tried, most of which had been chosen by my mom. She wanted me to join the swimming team, “Tara. Your sister is a good swimmer; surely you will be, too.” Yet she refused to see that I was afraid of water. Every Saturday, I would jump into the cold water with all my strength and swim to the other side of the pool. I would have given it up if I had not heard my father’s encouraging shouts to cheer me on. Then came a turning point in my life, the day our school music group visited my class and gave a show. The drums bored me. The flutes (笛子) bored me. But the violin... Ah, the violin. It made the sweetest sound I’d ever heard! My heart was dancing along with the beautiful music. Holding the paper with the orchestra (管弦乐队) director’s permission, I ran all the way home after school, and handed it to my parents with a fear that they might say no. They didn’t. Mom was happy to see me finally excited about something, and Dad winked (眨眼示意) at me while signing the paper quickly. I have now been practising the violin for 4 years, and have improved quickly. Before long, I won the first place in the local orchestra... 31. How did Tara feel when she swam? A. Nervous. B. Excited. C. Proud. D. Relaxed. 32. What made Tara feel excited during the school music group’s visit? A. The sound of the drums. B. The sound of the violin. C. The music group’s show. D. All the instruments. 33. When did Tara begin to practice the violin? A. 1 year ago. B. 2 years ago. C. 3 years ago. D. 4 years ago. 34. What helped Tara win the first place in the local orchestra? A. Her mother’s push. B. Her father’s encouragement. C. Her love for the violin. D. The school music group’s help. 35. What can we learn from the story? A. It’s never too young to learn. B. Interest is the best teacher. C. Practice makes perfect. D. Like mother, like daughter. C A new study found that 52 of the most common species (物种) of birds in the USA have shrunk in size in the past 38 years. Scientists say this is because of climate change. This shrinking in size follows a rule called Bergmann’s rule. The rule says that animals in cooler areas are usually larger than those in warmer areas. Larger animals are able to keep warmer. That is the reason why animals in cold areas are larger. As global warming affects (影响) the planet, animals now have to deal with rising temperatures. Some of them shrink in size. Scientists studied over 70,000 birds. They discovered that some birds in North America were shrinking in size. Studies on deer, insects and fish also show similar facts. What does this mean for these species? Global warming is happening faster than ever before. So, animals may not be able to change fast enough. And when species shrink, other things get different. When an animal’s body shrinks, it may not be able to give birth to as many young as before—this may affect the size of a species’ population. It is possible that scientists haven’t yet completely understood how changes in size may affect the ability of animals to be alive. This shows the bigger problem with climate change—we aren’t always able to predict what will happen—we aren’t always able to predict what will happen when the earth’s temperatures keep rising. And that is the real danger. 36. The underlined word “shrunk” in this passage means ________. A. become smaller B. disappeared C. increased D. grown 37. Why are animals in cold areas larger than those in warmer areas? A. Because they eat more food. B. Because they sleep longer. C. Because they can keep warmer. D. Because they need to be faster. 38. If a species’ body gets smaller, ________. A. the species’ population may become smaller B. the species may change faster C. the earth may become warmer D. there will be more pollution on the earth 39. The writer thinks the biggest problem with global warming is ________. A. the earth’s temperatures keep rising B. humans can’t predict what will happen C. there will be fewer species on the earth D. there will be more pollution on the earth 40. What can be the best title for this passage? A. How Global Warming Affects the Planet B. Why the Earth’s Temperature Is Rising C. How Animals on the Earth Are Changing D. Why Some Animals Are Getting Smaller D One day in 1903 French scientist Edouard Benedictus climbed high to get something on a high shelf in his laboratory. He carelessly hit an empty glass flask (烧瓶) and it fell to the stone floor. Benedictus climbed down, expecting a mess, but he found a surprise. The glass hadn’t broken into a million pieces! It had cracked (破裂), but it had held together. Benedictus wondered why. His helper explained he had used the flask to hold liquid plastic (液态塑料). Then he had put the flask aside and forgotten to wash it. The liquid plastic dried, so the flask looked empty. Benedictus found that the dried plastic had kept the cracked glass from falling apart. The same week, Benedictus read a report about a car accident in the newspaper. The car was a new and exciting invention, and many people were driving fast on the roads. When accidents happened, people were often hurt by flying broken glass. Suddenly Benedictus thought of the broken flask. Could his accident be something useful? Benedictus spent a lot of time in the lab, trying to find out the best way to make safety glass for cars. Finally, Benedictus put some liquid plastic between two pieces of glass and pressed them together. When he hit it, the “glass-and-plastic sandwich” cracked, but it didn’t break into small pieces. Benedictus succeeded. He wrote in his diary, “I produced my first piece of Triplex (the name for his invention) —full of promise for the future.” Benedictus was right. His method of putting plastic between pieces of glass is still used today. And that’s how a careless accident led to an invention that made us all safer! 41. How did Benedictus feel when he saw the cracked glass flask? A Angry. B. Sorry. C. Excited. D. Surprised. 42. The glass flask didn’t fall apart because ________. A. the floor was not so hard B. the shelf was not so high C there was dried plastic in it D. Benedictus’ helper caught it 43. When did Benedictus decide to work on his invention? A. When he read a news report. B. When he climbed high on a shelf. C. After his helper had a car accident. D. After his helper gave him a suggestion. 44. What do we know about Triplex? A. It was invented in 1900. B. It had plastic on its cover. C. It got popular as soon as it was invented. D. It had an influence on today's safety glass. 45. Which of the following is the best title of the passage? A. Magic of Plastic B. Lessons from Accidents C. A Great Accidental Invention D. Daily Life of a French Scientist 第二节 E 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 There are several reasons why school uniforms are a good idea. ____46____ The students feel that they belong to a particular (特定的) group.
