It was sent up into s 1 in 1990 and since then it has made 1.6 million observations (观测). Hubble orbits roughly 320 miles above Earth’s s 2 . Observations made by telescopes on Earth aren’t always very c 3 because the atmosphere gets in the way, affecting the light from far-off objects. Hubble is above the atmosphere, so it can get clearer images. Over the last 35 years, the telescope has helped space scientists l 4 more about the universe. It’s n 5 after Edwin Hubble, an astronomer who discovered that the universe is constantly getting larger. Scientists used the telescope to look at how fast this is h 6 . They also calculated that the universe is 13.8 billion years old. Observations taken by Hubble also proved the existence of supermassive black holes in the m 7 of galaxies (星系). A black hole is an a 8 in space where gravity pulls so strongly that even light cannot escape. The telescope also took a photo of the Eagle Nebula, a cloud of gas and dust where stars are born. The photo, called Pillars of Creation, showed details of star evolution that had never been seen before. Another f 9 image taken by the telescope is the Hubble Ultra Deep Field. It shows around 10,000 galaxies. To take it, Hubble watched the same area of sky for one million seconds. Hubble is still working well. The US space agency, NASA, says it e 10 the telescope to stay in space for the rest of the 2020s and into the 2030s. 【答案】 1．space/pace 2．surface/urface 3．clear/lear 4．learn/earn 5．named/amed 6．happening/appening 7．middle/iddle 8．area/rea 9．famous/amous 10．expects/xpects 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了哈勃太空望远镜的35岁生日及其在天文学上的重要贡献。 1．句意：它于1990年被发射到太空，自那以后已经进行了160万次观测。根据“the Hubble Space Telescope celebrated its 35th birthday”和首字母提示，表示被发射到太空。space“太空”符合语境。故填space。 2．句意：哈勃在地球表面上方约320英里处运行。根据“Hubble orbits roughly 320 miles above Earth’s...”和首字母提示，表示地球表面，surface“表面”符合语境。故填surface。 3．句意：在地球上通过望远镜进行的观测并不总是非常清晰，因为大气层会干扰来自遥远天体的光线传播。根据“Hubble is above the atmosphere, so it can get clearer images.”可知，望远镜观察的不是很清晰，clear“清晰的”符合语境，形容词作表语。故填clear。 4．句意：在过去的35年里，望远镜帮助太空科学家更多地了解宇宙。根据“more about the universe”可知望远镜帮助太空科学家更多地了解宇宙，learn“了解”，help sb. do sth.“帮助某人做某事”，此处用动词原形。故填learn。 5．句意：它以埃德温·哈勃的名字命名，一位发现宇宙不断膨胀的天文学家。be named after为固定搭配，意为“以……命名”。故填named。 6．句意：科学家利用望远镜来观察这有多快发生。根据“Scientists used the telescope to look at how fast this is...”可知，是表示是有多快发生，happen“发生”，前面有is，此处用现在分词happening。故填happening。 7．句意：哈勃望远镜的观测也证明了超大质量黑洞存在于星系的中间。根据“proved the existence of supermassive black holes in the...of galaxies ”以及首字母提示，是存在于星系的中间，middle“中间”符合语境。故填middle。 8．句意：黑洞是太空中一个引力非常强的区域，即使是光也无法逃脱。根据后文“where gravity pulls so strongly that even light cannot escape”可知黑洞是太空中一个引力非常强的区域，area“区域”符合语境，an后加可数名词单数。故填area。 9．句意： 另一张著名照片是哈勃超深场。根据句意和首字母提示，此处应填“famous”（著名的），表示照片的知名度。故填famous。 10．句意：美国宇航局（NASA）表示，预计哈勃望远镜将在本世纪20年代剩余时间及之后持续运行，直至2030年代。根据后文“the telescope to stay in space for the rest of the 2020s and into the 2030s”可知，这是预计的情况，expect“预计”，句子用一般现在时，主语是it，动词用三单形式。故填expects。 10 立足新教材，自学有章法，练习有重点！ 15 立足新教材，自学有章法，练习有重点！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年一线教师制作新教材英语核心题型讲通练透系列资料，名师甄选！ 2025-2026学年一线教师制作新教材英语核心题型讲通练透系列资料，名师甄选！ 专题06 首字母填空押题预测15篇 （Units 1-8，紧贴新教材话题）   精   练   导   航 目录 一、U1-U4单元话题热点预测 1 二、U5单元话题热点预测 6 三、U6单元话题热点预测 9 四、U7-U8单元话题热点预测 13   主   题   阅   读 一、U1-U4单元话题热点预测 Last week, we watched a fantastic show about Chinese traditional art and we all had a great time there.

The way that you stand, your hand gestures and the e 1 on your face are all ways to communicate without words. Here are two common movements to help you better understand the m 2 of body language. If someone rubs his chin (抚摸着下巴) when talking with you, it often means he doesn’t believe what you are saying. So when you see your friend making this gesture next time, you should know how he feels. H 3 , this gesture could also be seen as a sign of deep thought in some cases. If your friend shrugs his shoulders (耸肩膀) when he is invited to a party, it shows he is t 4 not  interested in going to the party. Maybe you can invite him next time. We should always pay a 5 to our body language. Small changes like sitting up straight, smiling, and making eye contact can make a big difference. 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，使短文意思完整。每空限填一词。 Our school’s voluntary work group has been bringing warmth to people around us for nearly a year. We started this activity because we wanted to help those living in difficult situations. Every weekend, we visit the children’s hospital in our city. Many young patients there are fighting against serious illnesses. Some of them even have to face cancer, which makes them feel sad and lonely. Our main goal is to r 1 their spirits and make their hospital life more colorful. We often prepare small gifts and interesting activities for them. Local shops and kind-hearted residents always support us. They give us stationery, toys and snacks to pass on to the children. They do this by giving these items freely, and in other words, they d 2 these things to help make the kids happier. We also spend our spare time, the time that we don’t use for study and homework, accompanying the elderly who live alone in the nearby community. We chat with them about their life stories, help them tidy up their rooms, and teach them how to use smartphones to video call their children who work in other cities. Last month, we met a boy named Xiao Yu in the hospital. He has been suffering from a serious disease for a long time and often stays in low s 3 . We organized a small painting activity for him and other kids. Xiao Yu painted a bright sun and told us he hoped to recover soon. Seeing his smile, we all felt that every effort we made was valuable. Doing this kind of work not only helps those in need but also fills our own hearts with great j 4 . We have learned that even small acts of kindness can bring big changes to someone’s life.

Dolphins often eat fish and some other sea animals. They like to swim and look for food in groups, moving in a clear d 2 as they hunt. Dolphins have very good hearing. They use it to find things under the water. Scientists believe dolphins can even talk to each other through a special whistle (哨子声). Just like people from different places speak different languages, there are different kinds of dolphins’ whistles, which help them r 3 members of their own group. Dolphins live in the sea, but they are not a kind of fish. They have babies in the way that cows and cats do, and feed their babies with milk. A female dolphin has a baby every two to three years. Dolphins are very friendly. But sadly, there are not many kinds of dolphins left. People kill them for food and other things. Some fishermen hunt them illegally. They must be p 1 for their bad and cruel behaviors. If people stop killing them and follow strict l 2 to protect these lovely animals, perhaps there will be more dolphins in the future. Protect Wild Animals Many wild animals are in danger now. It is a t 1 problem in the world. Some people kill animals for money. They use g 2 to hunt them illegally. This is very cruel and wrong. We must have strict l 3 to stop this. The laws can help protect animals and their homes. If people break the law, they should be p 4 seriously. No one can hurt wild animals freely.

However, young people’s language ability is becoming poorer because they pay little a 1 to the way they talk on the Internet. More than 76% of young people in China say they feel their Chinese language skills are becoming poor. Internet memes (表情包) are changing their communication habits. When they communicate on the Internet, they usually use Internet memes. For example, when one sees something funny, he will just use “hahaha”, or use the “cry-laugh” emoji (表情). Also, “copy” culture is getting popular. People often pick up expressions from the Internet w 2 thinking seriously. If this goes on, it may do harm to our way of thinking. When young people always c 3 to use emoji without thinking, it means they become too lazy to show their real feelings. In this way, no w 4 people are poor at expressing themselves in words. If they keep using emoji in this way, it may be difficult for them to use the words correctly. To improve our language skills, experts suggest that we should try to develop language logic (逻辑). They also suggest that we should read more good books. Besides, keeping using different kinds of words to show our feelings is another good o 5 to practice our language. The Beauty of Reading Poetry Reading p 1 brings me great p 2 in my daily life. As a middle school student, I am busy with my studies, but poems always make me feel relaxed and peaceful. Poetry is c 3 and beautiful. It uses simple but wonderful words to show our feelings and the beauty of nature. When I read poems, I can imagine different scenes, like flying birds and colorful flowers. It also helps me express my own ideas better. Many great poets not only write for themselves but also share their thoughts with people at home and a 4 . Their works cross time and space, touching the hearts of young people like us. Youth is a wonderful time full of energy and dreams. Reading poetry can make our y 5 more meaningful. It teaches us to love life, understand the world and keep a warm heart. In short, poetry is a good friend in my life. I will keep reading and enjoying it, making my youth colorful and unforgettable. There are several great m 1 to remember English words. Firstly, keeping a notebook is very helpful. You can write down new words, their meanings, and example sentences in the notebook. Then, set aside time each day to review what you’ve written. This r 2 review helps reinforce (加强) your memory of the words. Secondly, learning words in c 3 is essential. Instead of just m 4 a word alone, try to understand how it’s used in a sentence, a story, or a conversation. For example, when you come across the word “benefit”, seeing it in “We can benefit a lot from reading books” helps you grasp its meaning and usage more c 5 . Thirdly, making a word web works well. Choose a core word and then write down related words around it. If your core word is “happy”, you can add words like “joyful”, “glad”, “delighted”, and also antonyms like “sad” or “unhappy”. This way, you not only remember the target word but also expand your vocabulary by c 6 it to other words. 四、U7-U8单元话题热点预测 阅读短文，根据上下文和所给的首字母写出所缺单词。注意使用正确形式，每空限填一词。 Nie Haisheng is a heroic Chinese astronaut.
