第Ⅱ卷 语篇综合训练
(一)阅读理解
As an engineer, I have designed electronic control systems for more than 30 years, and I had expected to do so until I retired.My wife, Krisztina Valter, is a scientist.One year, she went to a scientific activity with me.Most knowledge of biology went over my head, but one speaker attracted my attention.Jochen Zeil, a professor who studies animal behaviour, presented a model of how insects could work out a way to go to a target despite having small brains.
At lunchtime, my wife introduced us.Zeil and I had a very enjoyable discussion about his idea and biology.When we parted, I joked that if he wanted another PhD student, he could count me in.About a month later he emailed me: “Haven't heard from you.Have you enrolled (登记入学) yet?”And that's how, at the age of 53, I became a part-time doctoral student in biology.
My background in biology had been out of date for many years, so I needed to learn the basics fast.It was not easy, but I got a lot of help from other laboratory members and my wife.The more I learnt, the more I realized how little I knew.Every paper caused the need to read more.It was tiring, and at times disappointing, but brought a lot of fun.You read, think, and suddenly things fall into place.
Now, at the age of 61, this period is nearly at an end.New knowledge enriches (充实) you, regardless of how old you are.My advice is that if you have the opportunity to enter a new field, take it.

5.have given 考查时态和主谓一致。根据空前“For the past few years”可知,句子应用现在完成时态,且主语online classes是复数形式,故填have given。
6.effectively 考查副词。此处use是动词,应用副词修饰,故填effectively。
7.various 考查形容词。此处platforms是名词,应用形容词修饰,故填various。
8.your 考查代词。此处classes是名词,应用形容词性物主代词修饰,故填your。
9.what 考查宾语从句。此处介词about后面是宾语从句,从句中缺少引导词,且从句的谓语部分be interested in缺少宾语,所填词必须具有双重作用,故用what引导。
10.considering 考查非谓语动词。此处介词after后应用动名词作宾语,故填considering。
11.to take 考查非谓语动词。此处是不定式作后置定语,修饰courses,故填to take。
12.for 考查介词。provide sb. with sth./provide sth. for sb.意为“给某人提供某物”,为固定搭配,故填for。
13.helps 考查时态。分析句子结构可知,本句为强调句型,句子主语为动名词短语,且此处描述客观事实,应用一般现在时,故填helps。
14.that 考查定语从句。此处不定代词everything作先行词,在定语从句中作宾语,应用that引导。
