We noticed a rest area nearby and rushed there. The wind blew hard and I felt cold. I 4 my bag, but I found I’d forgotten to take my emergency rescue blanket (紧急救生毯). “Ta-da! Look!” Dad pulled out a blanket from his bag and put it over us. “Let’s share,” he added. Mom brought out a packet of cookies. “ 5 makes everything better,” she said, passing them around. Her calmness helped me breathe easily. Half an hour passed, but the rain didn’t stop. We had to give up the trip and return. The ground was wet, so Dad kept 6 us to be slow and careful. He suggested we hold on to the trees in order not to fall. The sky grew dark, so we couldn’t see the road clearly. “Are we…lost?” I asked. Dad took out a compass (指南针) from his magic bag.“See this? Always 7 one,” he said, “North is that way.” Then he guided us with a flashlight. We finally got to the car park and drove home safely. On arriving home, we got into warm clothes. “The weather in the mountains changes anytime. Luckily, with good 8 , we made the trip safe and sound.

Summer vacation! Time to relax and watch videos for the next six weeks, I thought. But my mom and dad told me that I was spending my first week of summer at an adventure camp. “A what?” I asked, not 1 my ears. “An adventure camp—you know, wilderness, backpacking, rock climbing, sleeping in a tent,” Dad explained. I didn’t have a 2 . The next day, I went to the camp unhappily. The first day was actually more fun than I expected. We did activities to know each other. Then, we shared why we were here, and I admitted (承认) that my parents had made me come. Others gave much better 3 : Kate wanted a challenge and to learn new things about herself. And Russell wanted to leave his comfort zone. “Is getting out of my comfort zone a good thing?” I wondered. The third day was a 4 day. We did rappelling (绕绳下降). That put me far outside of my comfort zone! I was scared of heights. My legs felt weak the whole way down. So even though I was afraid, it all went surprisingly 5 ! It was terrifying but exciting. On the fifth day, our task was to find our campsite. I was worried because the only people we could rely on (依靠) were ourselves. When we finally got to the campsite, I couldn’t believe that I was actually 6 this. I felt a sense of freedom and control over my life. On the last day, the instructor asked what adventure meant to us. After thinking, I finally put it into words—adventure is a great way to break out of daily routine. You have to experience something new. That’s why a little 7 is worth it. Adventure brings out the best in people, I think. When you get out of your routine and 8 beyond the limits of your comfort zone, you’re learning to take care of yourself and grow. 1．A．believing B．understanding C．touching D．reaching 2．A．chance B．choice C．wish D．right 3．A．plans B．suggestions C．answers D．rules 4．A．hard B．terrible C．boring D．simple 5．A．short B．slowly C．deep D．well 6．A．doubting B．enjoying C．following D．studying 7．A．trouble B．hope C．risk D．interest 8．A．go B．improve C．rush D．spread 【答案】9．A 2．B 3．C 4．A 5．D 6．B 7．C 8．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者最初不情愿地参加夏令营，但在经历了一系列挑战（如绳降、寻找营地）后，从恐惧走向享受，最终领悟到走出舒适区、敢于冒险对个人成长的意义。 10．句意：“什么？”我问道，简直不敢相信自己的耳朵。 根据文中“Time to relax and watch video…But my mom and dad told me that I was spending my first week…at an adventure camp.”可知，作者原本期待轻松休息却被告知要去夏令营。由于感到极度意外和难以置信，此处应选用believing表示“相信”，构成固定搭配believe one’s ears“相信某人的耳朵”。 11．句意：我没有选择。 根据文中“The next day, I went to the camp unhappily.”可知，尽管作者很不开心，但第二天还是动身前往了，说明他无法违抗父母的安排。由于没有决定权，应选用choice表示“选择”。 12．句意：其他人给出了更好的答案：凯特想要挑战并了解自己的新事物。 根据文中“…we shared why we were here…”可知，此处大家正在分享来到夏令营的缘由。针对“why”这一问题的陈述应选用answers表示“回答/答案”。 13．句意：第三天是艰难的一天。 根据后文提到“We did rappelling…I was scared of heights. My legs felt weak…”描述了作者因恐高在进行绳降挑战时身体和心理承受的巨大压力，说明这天任务繁重且不易，应选用hard表示“艰难的”。 14．句意：所以尽管我害怕，一切竟进展得出奇顺利！ 根据文中“…even though I was afraid, it all went surprisingly…! It was terrifying but exciting.”可知，尽管过程可怕，但最终的结果是积极的。固定搭配“go well”，表示“进展顺利”，应选用well。 15．句意：当我们终于到达营地时，我不敢相信自己居然在享受这个过程。 根据文中“When we finally got to the campsite…I felt a sense of freedom and control over my life.”可知，作者在完成任务后获得了极大的成就感和自由感。由于内心转为了积极正向的情绪，应选用enjoying表示“享受”。 16．句意：这就是为什么一点风险是值得的。 根据文中“…adventure is a great way to break out of daily routine. You have to experience something new.”可知，作者认为打破常规去体验新事物是有价值的。由于尝试未知事物必然伴随着不确定性，应选用risk表示“风险”。 17．句意：当你走出惯例、超越舒适区的极限时，你正在学习照顾自己并成长。 根据文中“…When you get out of your routine and…beyond the limits of your comfort zone…”可知，此处描述跨越舒适区边界的动作。应选用go与介词“beyond”构成短语“go beyond”，表示“超越/越过”。 阅读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。 Mom told me I had to stay with Grandpa for an hour and a half while she was out. “I can’t stay with Grandpa that long! It’s just uncomfortable around him.” I complained. But Mom said he was just sad since Grandma died. Besides, it wasn’t a big deal to stay with him for a couple of hours. After she said that, I knew the 1 was over. We drove straight to Grandpa’s in an uncomfortable silence. The moment we got there, Mom opened the door and let us in. I saw Grandpa sitting close to the TV without even turning to look at us. Mom got me settled and kissed us goodbye. After Mom left, I worked on my homework while Grandpa 2 watching television. We looked up at each other now and then but said nothing. Grandpa noticed me packing up when I finished my homework. He suggested we watch TV together, but nothing was to my taste. The silence 3 . I sat on the sofa, trying to get comfortable, when my foot nudged (碰) something under the sofa. Curious, I 4 and pulled out a wooden box. “Oh, my chess set,” Grandpa said. “Do you play?” “No.” I said. “Well,” he said, “we’ve got some time. Maybe I can show you how to play.” He opened the box and began explaining the pieces and how they moved on the board. We practiced many times. He just corrected me and let me try again. I was surprised at how 5 he taught me. Finally, we started our first game. Grandpa talked me through every move, explaining what might happen next. This was a big 6 because I could think carefully about every move. But I was still new to the game, and he beat me in just nine moves. I was embarrassed (尴尬的) by how easily he beat me. We kept playing, and each game lasted a little longer before Grandpa won. Even though I kept losing, I felt 7 of how far I had come. When Mom came back, she was surprised to see us playing chess together. Grandpa said I had learned a lot. I thanked him and asked if we could play again sometime. He looked up and smiled — a smile that lit up the whole room.

You just haven’t 2 yours yet. What you need is to have a little more confidence in yourself.” That afternoon, Lily found an old box on her doorstep. There was a note on it: The Perfect You. Curious, she opened it. Inside was a puzzle piece with a soft green light. Suddenly, it spoke, “What makes you truly happy?” Lily quickly 3 the box, too scared to answer. But that night, the shining puzzle piece floated (漂浮) toward her in her dream. The next morning, still thinking about the question, Lily opened the box again and whispered to herself, “I feel happy when I draw pictures for my little sister.” To her 4 , the puzzle piece floated into the grid and clicked into place! Then, a second puzzle piece appeared. “What are you proud of?” it asked. Lily thought for a moment before answering. “I feel proud when I help other kids,” she replied. The second piece flew into place just like the first one. Day by day, more puzzle pieces appeared, each asking a question. Lily answered 5 . Sometimes it was easy to answer. Sometimes it wasn’t. She never hid her true thoughts. Finally, the last piece appeared. It asked, “Do you sometimes feel left out?” Lily froze. “I don’t know.” But then she remembered when her classmates worked together and didn’t 6 her. Then she remembered her mom telling her, “It’s OK to feel alone sometimes. Everyone gets to choose their own friends, but that doesn’t mean you should 7 yourself!” Lily took a deep breath and replied, “Yes, I feel left out sometimes, but I know it’s OK.” The whole puzzle flashed and turned into a bright mirror. Instead of showing someone “perfect”, the mirror reflected Lily’s own smiling face with words below it: “Be Yourself.” A warm feeling spread through her heart.

She just needed to be herself, and that was 8 . 1．A．upset B．impatient C．nervous D．curious 2．A．chosen B．compared C．tested D．discovered 3．A．shook B．broke C．closed D．emptied 4．A．disappointment B．amazement C．discouragement D．excitement 5．A．honestly B．secretly C．warmly D．correctly 6．A．trust B．include C．guide D．follow 7．A．help B．limit C．doubt D．hide 8．A．possible B．popular C．common D．enough 【答案】9．A 2．D 3．C 4．B 5．A 6．B 7．C 8．D 【导语】本文讲述害羞的女孩Lily总觉得自己不如别人，在妈妈鼓励与神秘盒子的引导下，她逐渐发现自身优势，明白做自己就足够好的故事。 10．句意：有一天，妈妈注意到莉莉神情沮丧。 后文莉莉感叹自己什么都不擅长，内心自卑难过，upset表示“沮丧、心烦”，符合情绪；impatient“不耐烦的”；nervous“紧张的”；curious“好奇的”，都不符合语境。 11．句意：你只是还没有发现自己的优点而已。 结合语境，这里是指“发现”自己的优点。discovered“发现”，符合妈妈开导Lily“找到自身优点”的语义。chosen“选择”；compared“比较”；tested“测试”，不符合语境。 12．句意：莉莉连忙合上盒子，吓得不敢回答。 她会因为害怕而关上盒子。closed“关上”，是害怕时的合理动作。shook“摇晃”，不符合害怕时的反应；broke“打破”，不符合逻辑。 13．句意：令她惊讶的是，拼图块飘进格子里并精准归位。 拼图自动归位是意外神奇的事，to one’s amazement“令某人惊讶”；disappointment“失望”；discouragement“气馁”；excitement“兴奋”，不符合当下情景。 14．句意：莉莉诚实地回答每一个问题。 后文提到她从不隐藏真实想法，说明回答很诚实，honestly“诚实地”；secretly“偷偷地”；warmly“热情地”；correctly“正确地”，不符合语境。 15．句意：她想起同学们一起合作活动，却没有带上她。 feel left out意为“被冷落、被排挤”，对应没有包含、接纳她，include“包含”，符合语境；trust“信任”；guide“引导”；follow“跟随”，不符。 16．句意：但那并不意味着你要怀疑自己。 结合Lily因被排斥而自卑的心态，妈妈是劝慰她不要怀疑自己。doubt“怀疑”，符合“不要因被排斥而否定自己”的劝慰逻辑。 17．句意：她只需要做自己，这样就足够了。 文章开头总觉得自己不够好，结尾首尾呼应，做自己就足够，enough“足够的”，符合语境；possible“可能的”；popular“受欢迎的”；common“普通的”，无呼应关系。 When the sweet smell of zongzi is in the air, you know it’s time for Dragon Boat Festival.

On the mat, I can do it well. But I can’t do it on the balance beam. Today I stood on the beam, trying to do a cartwheel. I looked down at my coach, Rita, who prepared to catch me if I failed.

Ryan looked me straight in the eyes, “I know you can do it.” I almost laughed again, but he was 2 . I promised to think about it. The next day in my class, the kids were learning to sing a song. “Let’s do it faster. I know you can do it!” I said. There it was again: “I know you can do it.” I asked the kids what that meant. “When I don’t know if I can do something, I just need someone to 3 I can do it,” Diego answered. I agreed that it makes all the difference. So I decided to take part in the race. After I had trained for several weeks, the race day finally came. We started on a hill. As we began winding (蜿蜒前行) down, I 4 speed and nearly lost control, but managed to stay upright. Finally, I was down on flat land, and I was completely worn out. Now, every mile became a challenge. My legs felt like heavy stones, but my son’s words, “I know you can do it” kept 5 in my head. Mile after mile, I rode on and passed several riders until only Ryan was ahead. A sense of 6 washed over me. When Ryan stopped for water, I caught up with him. We basically stayed together for the rest of the miles. I wished we could both cross the finish line side by side. But the truth is, I suddenly became very competitive and sped ahead, leaving Ryan behind. I 7 ! Ryan was right. He knew I could make it, and I did. It was not about winning.

I was twelve at the time, and my father, a quiet man who loved writing, had worked on his book for months. His study was messy, filled with coffee cups and paper—proof of his hard work. That evening, the mailman brought a thick envelope. My younger sister Lily, always eager to check the mail, grabbed it and 1 it to dad with excitement. Dad looked at the sender’s name—a famous publishing company—and sighed. Without saying anything, he dropped the envelope onto a shelf near his desk. “Dad, won’t you open it?” Lily asked, sounding confused. “It’s probably just another 2 ,” he replied quietly, staring at his computer screen. His voice was calm, but I saw his hands shake slightly. The room fell into a heavy 3 , except for the sound of typing. Lily, however, didn’t give up. She pulled a chair to the shelf, climbed up, and grabbed the envelope. With her small hands, she 4 it open. “Look! It’s from the publisher!” she shouted, holding the letter high. Dad stopped typing. Slowly, he took the letter and read, “We are happy to tell you that your book has been chosen for publication…” His voice broke as he held the paper tightly. Lily laughed and jumped around. “I knew they’d like it!” Her eyes shone with pride, as if she’d uncovered a hidden treasure. Dad’s face changed—first surprise, then hope, and finally relief. He hugged Lily tightly. “Thank you,” he whispered, “for not giving up on me.” Years later, whenever dad feels unsure about sending his work, he remembers Lily’s words, 5 him to try. Now, I’ve started writing too—short stories in notebooks, poems on paper. When I doubt myself, dad places a hand on my shoulder and says, “Just send it. What matters is having the 6 to try.” Last month, I received my first refusal letter. For a moment, my heart 7 . But Lily ran into my room, grabbed the letter, and said, “Next time, they’ll say yes! Want to bet a cookie? ” Her smile made me laugh. This journey taught me that success isn’t just about skill—it’s about having someone who 8 supports you, even when things seem hard. And sometimes, that someone is a little sister who never stops believing. 1．A．mailed B．sent C．handed D．delivered 2．A．invitation B．message C．reminder D．refusal 3．A．silence B．noise C．darkness D．laughter 4．A．cut B．tore C．folded D．threw 5．A．teaching B．pushing C．allowing D．helping 6．A．courage B．excuse C．idea D．effort 7．A．raced B．beat C．sank D．stopped 8．A．purposely B．secretly C．unconditionally D．accidentally 【答案】9．C 2．D 3．A 4．B 5．B 6．A 7．C 8．C 【导语】本文通过父亲写作出版的经历，展现了妹妹莉莉的鼓励与信任对父亲的重要性，同时作者也受其影响，领悟到成功离不开他人的无条件支持。 10．句意：我的妹妹莉莉，总是迫不及待地想查看邮件，她一把抓起信封，兴奋地递给了爸爸。 前文提到莉莉“抓起信封”，结合语境是亲手交给爸爸。hand sth. to sb.“把某物递给某人”，符合动作逻辑。 11．句意：这可能又是一次拒绝。 爸爸叹气且把信封放下，表现出消极情绪，结合后文莉莉的鼓励和最终的出版结果，可推断爸爸此前多次被拒，推测这次又是“拒绝”，呼应后文“坚持不放弃” 的主题。refusal符合语境。 12．句意：房间陷入了一阵沉重的寂静，只有敲击键盘的声音。 后文except for the sound of typing“除了打字声”，说明房间是安静的，heavy silence表示“沉重的寂静”，符合压抑的氛围。 13．句意：她用小小的手，撕开了信封。 莉莉想快速打开信封看内容，用小手“撕开”信封最符合语境。tore符合语境。 14．句意：多年后，每当爸爸对投稿感到不确定时，他都会想起莉莉的话，鼓励他继续尝试。 莉莉的话是父亲坚持的动力，push sb. to do sth.表示“推动/鼓励某人做某事”，比help/teach更能体现莉莉的话对父亲的激励作用。 15．句意：重要的是拥有勇气去尝试。 爸爸说“只管寄出去”，强调的是面对退稿时敢于尝试的“勇气”，courage符合语境。 16．句意：那一刻，我的心一沉。 收到退稿心情低落，heart sinks是固定表达，意为“心情一沉/沮丧”，符合语境。 17．句意：这段经历教会我，成功不仅仅取决于技能——它在于拥有一个无条件支持你的人。 文章核心是莉莉在爸爸困难时始终支持、相信他，体现的是“无条件的支持”，unconditionally准确概括了这份支持的特质。 When I moved to America in the 7th grade, I did not speak any English. I had no choice but to keep working hard. Although I made 1 when I reached the 9th grade, people still found it difficult to understand me because of my accent. One day, at a party, I was invited to play a guessing game. When it was my turn, I tried to 2 the object that I had in mind. Suddenly someone said with a laugh, “What did she say?” I felt 3 . Out of kindness, a girl gently advised me to repeat it, but I got stuck on the word “purple”. I couldn’t 4 it. This time, everyone laughed while I was trying hard to get the word out of me. This experience had its own influence on me. When opportunities were opened up for the summer program I had been waiting for, I 5 to attend the class. Luckily, I got tons of encouragement from people around me. So I decided to have a try. At the interview, the other students in my group spoke professionally and very naturally, but I didn’t speak that much. I knew that I could hardly be understood because of my accent. Besides, when I was 6 , it would be even more difficult for me to pronounce words clearly. After the interview, I stayed, said sorry and explained to the teachers. I didn’t want them to think I wasn’t interested or I was being unfriendly. But they appreciated that I 7 myself. “It’s OK. You don’t have to say sorry. Your accent does not make you less than others,” said one of the teachers. Surprisingly, I was accepted into the program. Imagine how I felt! Up to now, I still feel lucky that I took that step. It is a 8 that I have changed. I did not let my accent stop me. I’m sure I will continue to feel anxious about speaking English with strangers. But that’s OK. It will not stop me from trying to be better. 1．A．turns B．trouble C．progress D．promises 2．A．touch B．choose C．repeat D．describe 3．A．unclear B．unique C．unexpected D．uninterested 4．A．pronounce B．recognize C．mislead D．understand 5．A．failed B．feared C．managed D．volunteered 6．A．confused B．special C．nervous D．respectful 7．A．helped B．proved C．showed D．expressed 8．A．sign B．lesson C．decision D．warning 【答案】9．C 2．D 3．A 4．A 5．B 6．C 7．D 8．A 【导语】本文讲述了作者移民美国，因英语口音自卑，却在一次暑期项目机会中，鼓起勇气直面恐惧，完成了成长与蜕变。 10．句意：虽然到九年级时我取得了进步，但因为口音，人们还是很难听懂我说话。 根据上文，作者七年级刚到美国完全不会英语，后来努力学习，有了进步。“make progress”是固定搭配，意为“取得进步”。turns“轮流；变化”；trouble“麻烦”；promises“承诺”均不符。 11．句意：轮到我时，我努力描述我心里想的那个物品。 前文是猜谜游戏，需要口头描述物品让别人猜测，应用describe。touch“触摸”；choose“选择”；repeat“重复”均不符合语境。 12．句意：突然有人笑着问：“她说了什么？” 我感觉自己（表达）含糊不清。 别人听不懂她说的话，说明她发音含糊、不清楚，应用unclear。unique“独特的”；unexpected“意外的”；uninterested“不感兴趣的”均不符合逻辑。 13．句意：但我卡在了 “紫色” 这个单词上，我没法发音。 联系上文可知，作者有口音、口语薄弱，没办法正确读出单词，应用pronounce。recognize“认出”；mislead“误导”；understand“理解”均不符。 14．句意：当我一直期待的暑期项目机会来临时，我却害怕去参加课程。 结合上下文，作者曾因口音被嘲笑，存有心理负担。面对期盼已久的暑期项目机会，她内心心生畏惧。且结合后文“Luckily, I got tons of encouragement from people around me. So I decided to have a try”可知，在他人鼓励下才决定尝试，此处应填 feared（害怕）。failed“失败”，“未能做到”；managed“设法做到”；volunteered“自愿”均不符。 15．句意：此外，当我紧张时，我就更难清晰地发音。 上文提到面试，根据常识，面试容易紧张，紧张会加重发音不标准的问题，应用nervous。confused“困惑的”；special“特别的”；respectful“恭敬的”均不合逻辑。 16．句意：但老师们很欣赏我表达自我的行为。 根据上文，面试后作者主动留下来道歉、解释自己的情况，属于主动表达想法，应用expressed。“express oneself”是固定搭配，意为“表达自我”。helped“帮助”；proved“证明”；showed“展示”均不符。 17．句意：这是我转变的标志。 联系全文可知，作者曾因口音被嘲笑，不敢参加活动，后来主动参加面试而且没有放弃，最终被认可。现在作者对自己迈出的这一步感到很幸运，这也是作者自我转变的标志。lesson“教训”；decision“决定”；warning“警告”均不符合语境。 Many people say that durian (榴莲) is delicious, but you have probably never seen a durian-scented (榴莲味的) candle. That’s because the fruit smells. And that is why some people 1 it. But Vincent Gomes from the University of Sydney doesn’t think so. Gomes is not a food lover, but he’s now very interested in durian. The researcher said the fruit could one day completely change our 2 . In Gomes’ eyes, durian is more than just a fruit. He and his colleagues have 2 something amazing about it. They found that durian is a natural super-capacitor (超级电容器). Super-capacitors, just like batteries, are used to store 3 . However, they hold a few advantages over the batteries we use today. They can store a much larger amount of electricity. They can be recharged much more quickly. And most 4 , they have a much longer life. The lithium-ion (锂离子) batteries in our smartphones depend on chemicals to produce electricity. When the chemicals are used up, the batteries become harmful waste. This has caused serious pollution problems. Scientists have been trying to develop better batteries for years. Although super-capacitors have many advantages, they are not yet widely used. The traditional methods used to make them are 5 while durian is quite cheap. It has given scientists hope. Gomes and his colleagues have found a way to turn durian cores (果核) into super-capacitors. But they still have many technical problems to 6 . Perhaps by the end of this decade, durian batteries will have hit the market. Let’s just hope they won’t smell too bad—we’ll need to use them in many 7 , from our cars to our phones! 1．A．dislike B．love C．need D．study 2．A．appearance B．work C．past D．world 3．A．broken B．created C．discovered D．heard 4．A．energy B．food C．information D．wealth 5．A．recently B．interestingly C．importantly D．terribly 6．A．dangerous B．expensive C．inconvenient D．untidy 7．A．admit B．forget C．report D．solve 8．A．dishes B．places C．projects D．ways 【答案】9．A 2．D 3．C 4．A 5．C 6．B 7．D 8．B 【导语】本文讲述了榴莲虽然气味难闻，但悉尼大学的研究员Vincent Gomes及其团队发现榴莲是天然超级电容器，有望改变世界，他们找到了将榴莲果核变成超级电容器的方法，不过仍面临许多技术问题有待解决，也许未来榴莲电池会进入市场。 10．句意：这就是为什么有些人不喜欢它。 上文提到“the fruit smells”，说明榴莲气味不好，所以有些人不喜欢它，dislike“不喜欢”符合语境。love“喜爱”、need“需要”、study“学习”均不符合。 11．句意：这位研究员说，这种水果有一天可能会彻底改变我们的世界。 下文提到榴莲有望成为超级电容器，这可能会对世界产生重大影响，change our world“改变我们的世界”符合逻辑。appearance“外貌”、work“工作”、past“过去”均不符合文意。 12．句意：他和他的同事们发现了关于它的一些惊人的事情。 根据后文“They found that durian is a natural super-capacitor”可知他们发现了榴莲是天然超级电容器这一惊人事情，discovered“发现”符合。broken“打破”、created“创造”、heard“听到”均不合适。 13．句意：超级电容器和电池一样，用于储存能量。 电池和超级电容器的作用是储存能量，energy“能量”符合。food“食物”、information“信息”、wealth“财富”均与超级电容器和电池的功能不符。 14．句意：最重要的是，它们的寿命要长得多。 前文列举了超级电容器相对于电池的多个优势，这里用“最重要的是”来强调寿命长这一优势，most importantly“最重要的是”符合。recently“最近”、interestingly“有趣地”、terribly“非常，很”均不符合语境。 15．句意：制作它们的传统方法很昂贵，而榴莲却相当便宜。 根据“while durian is quite cheap”可知这里是将制作超级电容器的传统方法和榴莲的价格进行对比，传统方法昂贵，expensive“昂贵的”符合。dangerous“危险的”、inconvenient“不方便的”、untidy“不整洁的”均与价格无关。 16．句意：但他们仍有许多技术问题要解决。 前面说找到了将榴莲果核变成超级电容器的方法，这里用but转折，说明还有技术问题要解决，solve“解决”符合。admit“承认”、forget“忘记”、report“报道”均不符合语境。 17．句意：但愿它们闻起来不会太难闻——我们需要在很多地方使用它们，从汽车到手机！ 从“from our cars to our phones”可知是在很多地方使用，places“地方”符合。dishes“菜肴”、projects“项目”、ways“方法”均不符合。 试卷第22页，共22页 试卷第21页，共22页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 完形填空精选考情专练8空（四个选项） 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、完形填空 “Why did we pick today for this?

Six miles into our bird-watching trip in Happy Forest Park, we were in trouble. In the morning, we set out in sunny weather. Birds were singing along the way while we were enjoying the sunshine. But storm clouds came 2 . “I checked the weather, but the app didn’t warn us,” Dad explained. “Don’t worry, and maybe you’ll get a nicer gift for your birthday,” Mom 3 me. “Really?” I forced a smile. “Find shelter (遮蔽)!” Dad shouted as the heavy rain poured down. We noticed a rest area nearby and rushed there. The wind blew hard and I felt cold. I 4 my bag, but I found I’d forgotten to take my emergency rescue blanket (紧急救生毯). “Ta-da! Look!” Dad pulled out a blanket from his bag and put it over us. “Let’s share,” he added. Mom brought out a packet of cookies. “ 5 makes everything better,” she said, passing them around. Her calmness helped me breathe easily. Half an hour passed, but the rain didn’t stop. We had to give up the trip and return. The ground was wet, so Dad kept 6 us to be slow and careful. He suggested we hold on to the trees in order not to fall. The sky grew dark, so we couldn’t see the road clearly. “Are we…lost?” I asked. Dad took out a compass (指南针) from his magic bag.“See this? Always 7 one,” he said, “North is that way.” Then he guided us with a flashlight. We finally got to the car park and drove home safely. On arriving home, we got into warm clothes. “The weather in the mountains changes anytime. Luckily, with good 8 , we made the trip safe and sound.

Summer vacation! Time to relax and watch videos for the next six weeks, I thought. But my mom and dad told me that I was spending my first week of summer at an adventure camp. “A what?” I asked, not 1 my ears. “An adventure camp—you know, wilderness, backpacking, rock climbing, sleeping in a tent,” Dad explained. I didn’t have a 2 . The next day, I went to the camp unhappily. The first day was actually more fun than I expected. We did activities to know each other. Then, we shared why we were here, and I admitted (承认) that my parents had made me come. Others gave much better 3 : Kate wanted a challenge and to learn new things about herself. And Russell wanted to leave his comfort zone. “Is getting out of my comfort zone a good thing?” I wondered. The third day was a 4 day. We did rappelling (绕绳下降). That put me far outside of my comfort zone! I was scared of heights. My legs felt weak the whole way down. So even though I was afraid, it all went surprisingly 5 ! It was terrifying but exciting. On the fifth day, our task was to find our campsite. I was worried because the only people we could rely on (依靠) were ourselves. When we finally got to the campsite, I couldn’t believe that I was actually 6 this. I felt a sense of freedom and control over my life. On the last day, the instructor asked what adventure meant to us. After thinking, I finally put it into words—adventure is a great way to break out of daily routine. You have to experience something new. That’s why a little 7 is worth it. Adventure brings out the best in people, I think. When you get out of your routine and 8 beyond the limits of your comfort zone, you’re learning to take care of yourself and grow. 1．A．believing B．understanding C．touching D．reaching 2．A．chance B．choice C．wish D．right 3．A．plans B．suggestions C．answers D．rules 4．A．hard B．terrible C．boring D．simple 5．A．short B．slowly C．deep D．well 6．A．doubting B．enjoying C．following D．studying 7．A．trouble B．hope C．risk D．interest 8．A．go B．improve C．rush D．spread 阅读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。 Mom told me I had to stay with Grandpa for an hour and a half while she was out. “I can’t stay with Grandpa that long! It’s just uncomfortable around him.” I complained. But Mom said he was just sad since Grandma died. Besides, it wasn’t a big deal to stay with him for a couple of hours. After she said that, I knew the 1 was over. We drove straight to Grandpa’s in an uncomfortable silence. The moment we got there, Mom opened the door and let us in. I saw Grandpa sitting close to the TV without even turning to look at us. Mom got me settled and kissed us goodbye. After Mom left, I worked on my homework while Grandpa 2 watching television. We looked up at each other now and then but said nothing. Grandpa noticed me packing up when I finished my homework. He suggested we watch TV together, but nothing was to my taste. The silence 3 . I sat on the sofa, trying to get comfortable, when my foot nudged (碰) something under the sofa. Curious, I 4 and pulled out a wooden box. “Oh, my chess set,” Grandpa said. “Do you play?” “No.” I said. “Well,” he said, “we’ve got some time. Maybe I can show you how to play.” He opened the box and began explaining the pieces and how they moved on the board. We practiced many times. He just corrected me and let me try again. I was surprised at how 5 he taught me. Finally, we started our first game. Grandpa talked me through every move, explaining what might happen next. This was a big 6 because I could think carefully about every move. But I was still new to the game, and he beat me in just nine moves. I was embarrassed (尴尬的) by how easily he beat me. We kept playing, and each game lasted a little longer before Grandpa won. Even though I kept losing, I felt 7 of how far I had come. When Mom came back, she was surprised to see us playing chess together. Grandpa said I had learned a lot. I thanked him and asked if we could play again sometime. He looked up and smiled — a smile that lit up the whole room. In that moment, chess was not just a game, but a bridge that 8 Grandpa and me. 1．A．speech B．report C．interview D．conversation 2．A．continued B．minded C．missed D．considered 3．A．changed B．ended C．returned D．reduced 4．A．fell down B．reached down C．slowed down D．sat down 5．A．directly B．regularly C．patiently D．quietly 6．A．help B．problem C．difference D．failure 7．A．relaxed B．proud C．tired D．afraid 8．A．discovered B．controlled C．compared D．connected 阅读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。 Lily was a shy girl who often felt like she wasn’t “enough”. She compared herself to her classmates. Some were amazing at sports or dancing. Some had lots of friends. “Why can’t I be like them?” she often wondered. One day, her mom noticed Lily looking 1 . “What’s wrong, dear?” Mom asked kindly. Lily sighed, “I just don’t think I’m good at anything.” Mom smiled and said, “Everyone has their own strengths, Lily. You just haven’t 2 yours yet. What you need is to have a little more confidence in yourself.” That afternoon, Lily found an old box on her doorstep. There was a note on it: The Perfect You. Curious, she opened it. Inside was a puzzle piece with a soft green light. Suddenly, it spoke, “What makes you truly happy?” Lily quickly 3 the box, too scared to answer. But that night, the shining puzzle piece floated (漂浮) toward her in her dream. The next morning, still thinking about the question, Lily opened the box again and whispered to herself, “I feel happy when I draw pictures for my little sister.” To her 4 , the puzzle piece floated into the grid and clicked into place! Then, a second puzzle piece appeared. “What are you proud of?” it asked. Lily thought for a moment before answering. “I feel proud when I help other kids,” she replied. The second piece flew into place just like the first one. Day by day, more puzzle pieces appeared, each asking a question. Lily answered 5 . Sometimes it was easy to answer. Sometimes it wasn’t. She never hid her true thoughts. Finally, the last piece appeared. It asked, “Do you sometimes feel left out?” Lily froze. “I don’t know.” But then she remembered when her classmates worked together and didn’t 6 her. Then she remembered her mom telling her, “It’s OK to feel alone sometimes. Everyone gets to choose their own friends, but that doesn’t mean you should 7 yourself!” Lily took a deep breath and replied, “Yes, I feel left out sometimes, but I know it’s OK.” The whole puzzle flashed and turned into a bright mirror. Instead of showing someone “perfect”, the mirror reflected Lily’s own smiling face with words below it: “Be Yourself.” A warm feeling spread through her heart. She finally realized she didn’t need to be like anyone else. She just needed to be herself, and that was 8 . 1．A．upset B．impatient C．nervous D．curious 2．A．chosen B．compared C．tested D．discovered 3．A．shook B．broke C．closed D．emptied 4．A．disappointment B．amazement C．discouragement D．excitement 5．A．honestly B．secretly C．warmly D．correctly 6．A．trust B．include C．guide D．follow 7．A．help B．limit C．doubt D．hide 8．A．possible B．popular C．common D．enough When the sweet smell of zongzi is in the air, you know it’s time for Dragon Boat Festival. This year, it falls on June 19. People started to 1 it more than 2,000 years ago. It is held 2 Qu Yuan (about 340-278 BC).

The boat race may be the most exciting activity of the day, 4 eating zongzi is a close second. It’s 5 sticky rice wrapped (包裹) in bamboo leaves.

How about heights, spiders, or closed spaces? No matter what your 1 is, you have the power to overcome it. I love gymnastics and my coach thinks I’m pretty good at it, too. On the mat, I can do it well. But I can’t do it on the balance beam. Today I stood on the beam, trying to do a cartwheel. I looked down at my coach, Rita, who prepared to catch me if I failed. I took a breath but my knees were shaking. “Well, I can’t do it! Someday I’ll do the beam. But not today.” I 2 down and went away. At the following class, Rita took out a roll of 3 . She used it to make two lines the width of the balance beam on the mat. “Maisie, I want you to practice your balance-beam routine within the lines of the tape.” Well, that’s easy enough. All I had to do was to stay inside the lines. I finished it 4 . “Great! You never went outside the lines,” Rita said. “Do you want to have a try on the balance beam?” I gave her a weak smile and shook my head. “Can you teach me how to swim?” Rita said suddenly. I was confused, and then she told me that she couldn’t swim because she was afraid of water. Therefore, I 5 . “Watch.” I jumped into the pool and began to swim. Rita was obviously afraid and hesitated to jump. I 6 her and finally Rita took a deep breath and jumped into the water. She succeeded! My coach was brave enough to jump into the water, and I couldn’t help thinking of myself. So I told Rita, “Maybe my ‘someday’ should be today.” I got up on the balance beam, closing my eyes and imagining I was on the mat. Then I started the cartwheel. I 7 it! Seeing that, Rita was excited to jump up and down, clapping and shouting, “You were so 8 !” “I wasn’t,” I shook my head. “I was super scared up there.” “That makes you great!

One day, my thirteen-year-old son, Ryan, rushed into the house and shouted, “Mom, you should join our charity — 1 race.” As he told me the details (细节), I laughed out loud. “What makes you think I could finish a twenty-mile bike race?” I asked. Ryan looked me straight in the eyes, “I know you can do it.” I almost laughed again, but he was 2 . I promised to think about it. The next day in my class, the kids were learning to sing a song. “Let’s do it faster. I know you can do it!” I said. There it was again: “I know you can do it.” I asked the kids what that meant. “When I don’t know if I can do something, I just need someone to 3 I can do it,” Diego answered. I agreed that it makes all the difference. So I decided to take part in the race. After I had trained for several weeks, the race day finally came. We started on a hill. As we began winding (蜿蜒前行) down, I 4 speed and nearly lost control, but managed to stay upright. Finally, I was down on flat land, and I was completely worn out. Now, every mile became a challenge. My legs felt like heavy stones, but my son’s words, “I know you can do it” kept 5 in my head. Mile after mile, I rode on and passed several riders until only Ryan was ahead. A sense of 6 washed over me. When Ryan stopped for water, I caught up with him. We basically stayed together for the rest of the miles. I wished we could both cross the finish line side by side. But the truth is, I suddenly became very competitive and sped ahead, leaving Ryan behind. I 7 ! Ryan was right. He knew I could make it, and I did. It was not about winning.

I was twelve at the time, and my father, a quiet man who loved writing, had worked on his book for months. His study was messy, filled with coffee cups and paper—proof of his hard work. That evening, the mailman brought a thick envelope. My younger sister Lily, always eager to check the mail, grabbed it and 1 it to dad with excitement. Dad looked at the sender’s name—a famous publishing company—and sighed. Without saying anything, he dropped the envelope onto a shelf near his desk. “Dad, won’t you open it?” Lily asked, sounding confused. “It’s probably just another 2 ,” he replied quietly, staring at his computer screen. His voice was calm, but I saw his hands shake slightly. The room fell into a heavy 3 , except for the sound of typing. Lily, however, didn’t give up. She pulled a chair to the shelf, climbed up, and grabbed the envelope. With her small hands, she 4 it open. “Look! It’s from the publisher!” she shouted, holding the letter high. Dad stopped typing. Slowly, he took the letter and read, “We are happy to tell you that your book has been chosen for publication…” His voice broke as he held the paper tightly. Lily laughed and jumped around. “I knew they’d like it!” Her eyes shone with pride, as if she’d uncovered a hidden treasure. Dad’s face changed—first surprise, then hope, and finally relief. He hugged Lily tightly. “Thank you,” he whispered, “for not giving up on me.” Years later, whenever dad feels unsure about sending his work, he remembers Lily’s words, 5 him to try. Now, I’ve started writing too—short stories in notebooks, poems on paper. When I doubt myself, dad places a hand on my shoulder and says, “Just send it. What matters is having the 6 to try.” Last month, I received my first refusal letter. For a moment, my heart 7 . But Lily ran into my room, grabbed the letter, and said, “Next time, they’ll say yes! Want to bet a cookie? ” Her smile made me laugh. This journey taught me that success isn’t just about skill—it’s about having someone who 8 supports you, even when things seem hard. And sometimes, that someone is a little sister who never stops believing. 1．A．mailed B．sent C．handed D．delivered 2．A．invitation B．message C．reminder D．refusal 3．A．silence B．noise C．darkness D．laughter 4．A．cut B．tore C．folded D．threw 5．A．teaching B．pushing C．allowing D．helping 6．A．courage B．excuse C．idea D．effort 7．A．raced B．beat C．sank D．stopped 8．A．purposely B．secretly C．unconditionally D．accidentally When I moved to America in the 7th grade, I did not speak any English. I had no choice but to keep working hard. Although I made 1 when I reached the 9th grade, people still found it difficult to understand me because of my accent. One day, at a party, I was invited to play a guessing game. When it was my turn, I tried to 2 the object that I had in mind. Suddenly someone said with a laugh, “What did she say?” I felt 3 . Out of kindness, a girl gently advised me to repeat it, but I got stuck on the word “purple”. I couldn’t 4 it. This time, everyone laughed while I was trying hard to get the word out of me. This experience had its own influence on me. When opportunities were opened up for the summer program I had been waiting for, I 5 to attend the class. Luckily, I got tons of encouragement from people around me. So I decided to have a try. At the interview, the other students in my group spoke professionally and very naturally, but I didn’t speak that much. I knew that I could hardly be understood because of my accent. Besides, when I was 6 , it would be even more difficult for me to pronounce words clearly. After the interview, I stayed, said sorry and explained to the teachers. I didn’t want them to think I wasn’t interested or I was being unfriendly. But they appreciated that I 7 myself. “It’s OK. You don’t have to say sorry. Your accent does not make you less than others,” said one of the teachers. Surprisingly, I was accepted into the program. Imagine how I felt! Up to now, I still feel lucky that I took that step. It is a 8 that I have changed. I did not let my accent stop me. I’m sure I will continue to feel anxious about speaking English with strangers. But that’s OK. It will not stop me from trying to be better. 1．A．turns B．trouble C．progress D．promises 2．A．touch B．choose C．repeat D．describe 3．A．unclear B．unique C．unexpected D．uninterested 4．A．pronounce B．recognize C．mislead D．understand 5．A．failed B．feared C．managed D．volunteered 6．A．confused B．special C．nervous D．respectful 7．A．helped B．proved C．showed D．expressed 8．A．sign B．lesson C．decision D．warning Many people say that durian (榴莲) is delicious, but you have probably never seen a durian-scented (榴莲味的) candle. That’s because the fruit smells. And that is why some people 1 it. But Vincent Gomes from the University of Sydney doesn’t think so. Gomes is not a food lover, but he’s now very interested in durian. The researcher said the fruit could one day completely change our 2 . In Gomes’ eyes, durian is more than just a fruit. He and his colleagues have 2 something amazing about it. They found that durian is a natural super-capacitor (超级电容器). Super-capacitors, just like batteries, are used to store 3 . However, they hold a few advantages over the batteries we use today. They can store a much larger amount of electricity. They can be recharged much more quickly. And most 4 , they have a much longer life. The lithium-ion (锂离子) batteries in our smartphones depend on chemicals to produce electricity. When the chemicals are used up, the batteries become harmful waste. This has caused serious pollution problems. Scientists have been trying to develop better batteries for years. Although super-capacitors have many advantages, they are not yet widely used. The traditional methods used to make them are 5 while durian is quite cheap. It has given scientists hope. Gomes and his colleagues have found a way to turn durian cores (果核) into super-capacitors. But they still have many technical problems to 6 . Perhaps by the end of this decade, durian batteries will have hit the market. Let’s just hope they won’t smell too bad—we’ll need to use them in many 7 , from our cars to our phones! 1．A．dislike B．love C．need D．study 2．A．appearance B．work C．past D．world 3．A．broken B．created C．discovered D．heard 4．A．energy B．food C．information D．wealth 5．A．recently B．interestingly C．importantly D．terribly 6．A．dangerous B．expensive C．inconvenient D．untidy 7．A．admit B．forget C．report D．solve 8．A．dishes B．places C．projects D．ways 试卷第22页，共22页 试卷第21页，共22页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
