This feels much heavier than it did before!” Mrs. Field laughed. “You think that because you’re tired after our long journey! Come on! I’ve got our key.” Look! Our room number is 501. It’s on the fifth floor. They went up in the lift (电梯), found their room and went inside. Then Lucy’s dad opened the suitcase to take out their swimming things. “Oh no!” he said. “Whose ski hat is this? Why are there three pairs of gloves and all these warm socks in the suitcase? ” Oh no!

Keeping 55. easily 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了蜂鸟的外形、生活习性、迁徙和繁育特点。 【46题详解】 句意：它们的彩色羽毛使它们看起来非常美丽。空前是Their，空后是feathers，说明此处需要一个形容词来修饰羽毛。备选词中colour是名词，需转换为形容词colourful，表示“彩色的”。 【47题详解】 句意：它们可以静止在空中，甚至向后飞。前句说它们能“静止”在空中，后句说能“向后飞”，后者的飞行能力比前者更特殊、更难，需要表示递进关系的词。备选词中even意为“甚至”，符合递进逻辑。 【48题详解】 句意：这些可爱的鸟类生活在温暖且充满鲜花的地方。空前是warm places，空后是flowers，说明此处需要一个表示“充满”的短语来连接places和flowers。备选词中full of意为“充满……的”，作后置定语修饰places，表示这些地方到处是鲜花。 【49题详解】 句意：它们有长而细的嘴巴，并且用它们来吸食花蜜。空前说它们有长而细的嘴巴，空后说它们用嘴巴吸花蜜，前后是顺承关系，需要一个连词连接两个分句。备选词中and意为“并且”，符合顺承逻辑。 【50题详解】 句意：当它们在花朵之间移动时，它们帮助传播花粉。空前是move，空后是flowers，说明此处需要一个表示位置关系的介词，表示移动的范围是在花朵之中。备选词中between意为“在……之间”，move between flowers表示在花丛中穿梭，符合传播花粉的场景。 【51题详解】 句意：为了获得足够的能量，它们几乎整天都在吃东西。前句说蜂鸟心跳很快，后句说它们整天吃东西，吃东西的目的是为了获得能量，此处需要表示目的。备选词中get意为“获得”，且位于句首作目的状语时需用不定式To get。 【52题详解】 句意：每年，许多蜂鸟长途迁徙。空前是hummingbirds，空后是a long way，说明此处需要一个不及物动词，表示蜂鸟做出的动作。备选词中travel意为“旅行、迁徙”，travel a long way是固定搭配，表示飞行很长的距离。 【53题详解】 句意：然后它们的妈妈照顾它们并且给它们喂食物。空前说妈妈照顾幼鸟，空后是them和food两个名词，说明此处需要一个能带双宾语的动词，表示妈妈给幼鸟提供食物。备选词中feed意为“喂养”，feed sb. sth.是固定搭配，意为“给某人喂某物”。 【54题详解】 句意：保持它们的家园安全非常重要。空处在句首作主语，空后是their homes safe（名词+形容词），说明此处需要一个能带宾语和宾补的动词，且需用动名词形式作主语。备选词中keep意为“使保持”，keep...safe是固定搭配，故填Keeping。 【55题详解】 句意：这可以帮助蜂鸟轻松地找到食物。空前是find the food，说明此处需要一个副词来修饰动词find。备选词中easy是形容词，其副词形式easily意为“轻松地”，表示因为人类提供了甜水碗，蜂鸟找食物不费力。 七、任务型阅读(15分) As you know, homework is a big part of going to school.

Luckily, here are several suggestions for you to make homework easy. Make a homework plan Most middle school students have two or three hours of homework a night. If it is a heavy homework day, you may need to spend even more time. It is a good idea to come up with some kind of homework schedule (进度表), especially if you are going to do sports or other activities after school. Watch where you work A bedroom, study or any room where you can get away from noise is good for you to do your homework. But don’t study on your comfortable bed or you might fall asleep there. Take a break Most people’s attention (注意力) doesn’t last very long, so take some breaks while doing your homework. Sitting for too long without relaxing will make you less productive (有效益的) than if you stop to take a break. Taking a 15-minute break every hour is a good way for most people. Ask for help Sometimes even though you are listening carefully in class, some subjects seem too hard. The first person to ask for help is your teacher. He or she may be able to work with you before or after school and explain things more clearly. Your classmates may also be able to give you a hand. However, this might not get to the results you want. Lots of people understand something well but are not able to explain it. Homework help Topic Homework can be quite hard, but there is something you can do to make homework ____56____.
