Plants for life
Nature presents us with 1 (end) wonders. Most people get 2 (interest) and ask questions. But one person took his interest all the way to the fields. He was born in the flowering season of early summer, and made plants his life. For over 70 years, he explored China to study the 3 (country) plants. This person was Wang Wencai.
Throughout his life, Professor Wang worked hard to research the world of plants in China. He discovered and named about 1,370 new plant species. To carry out his research, he spent years in wild mountains and forests. Once, he fell 4 (serious) ill while doing field work in Yunnan. Though he nearly died, Wang never stopped his work. He lost sight in his right eye at the age of 83. But he didn’t let 5 (somebody) know. With a magnifier in hand, he still carried on with his research for another 10 years.
Despite his huge success, Wang seldom thought about personal honour or 6 (wealthy). Although he received the First Class Award of National Natural Science Awards twice, he hardly mentioned it. For him, the award 7 (belong) to the team, and he was just doing his job. In fact, Wang was always quiet about his 8 (achieve). He was such a great scientist. But for a long time, even his granddaughter had no idea.
Plants grow and sleep with the seasons. So did Professor Wang. He passed away at the age of 96 with the 9 (fall) leaves of autumn. When people came to say goodbye, they didn’t hear any sad notes. Instead, they got to listen to Beethoven’s Pastoral Symphony. This was Wang’s favourite piece of music. It 10 (soft) told people about his lifelong exploration and love of nature.

The world of the out-of-doors is full of 1 (end) secrets. And they are so interesting that quite a lot of people are studying them. All around us are birds, animals, trees, and flowers. The 2 (fact) about how they live and grow are as interesting as anything could be. Do you know that one of the greatest presidents of the United States 3 (spend) hours and hours studying birds many years ago? A businessman who lives near New York City became so interested in insects that he began to collect 4 (they). Now more than one thousand different kinds 5 (keep) in glass boxes. Let us go through the woods and fields 6 (quiet). We shall follow a mother bear and her babies 7 (search) for food and get ready for winter sleep.
We shall watch bees 8 (dance) in the air to let other bees know where they can find food. I will show you many other interesting things, but the best thing that I can teach you is to keep your eyes and ears 9 (wide) open when you go out of doors. Nature tells her secrets to only the people who look and listen 10 (serious).

(25-26八年级下·黑龙江齐齐哈尔·期中)My hometown is on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (青藏高原).The geography here is awesome. It is famous for the world’s 1 (high) mountain. But this area is also full 2 the most amazing colors in nature.

The lovely blue of the sky always gives 6 (I) a calm feeling. It is like a great sea above 7 plateau, and words can’t show my love for the rivers and lakes. There are so many kinds of blue in the water.
Our grasslands, forests and fields are all green. 8 green is not just the colour of nature now. Trains are running through the plateau. They come in this beautiful colour too.
The plateau is quieter than the big cities. We have fewer 9 (shop) and restaurants. But we have the best presents from nature. In my heart, it’s better than any other place. I’m glad 10 (say) that I’m from one of the most beautiful places in the world.

(25-26八年级下·全国·单元测试)Reaching New Heights
To most people, Mount Qomolangma is the greatest wonder of the world. On the 1 (high) place on earth, you will feel like you are able to touch the sky. But only the 2 (good) climbers reach the top, and that is only if they survive the terrible conditions first. On the mountain, temperatures can fall to -30 degrees. Climbers must also deal with thin air, high cliffs, and 3 (change) weather.
Before 1960, no one was able to reach the top of Qomolangma from the northern side. Mountain climbers even called that way the "Death Road", but a Chinese 4 (climb) team was determined to make the climb.
On 24 May 1960, climbers Liu Lianman, Wang Fuzhou, Qu Yinhua, and Gong Bu arrived at the Second Step. It was 8,600 metres above sea level. People said it was 5 high that even birds could not reach it. Liu allowed his teammates to step on his shoulders. Bit by bit, the climbers pulled themselves up, and they made it past the Second Step. At 4:20 a.m. on 25 May, the Chinese national flag flew above the 6 (high) mountain in the world for the first time.
In 1975, another Chinese team climbed to the top of Qomolangma to do research. This time, they brought a ladder to the Second Step. Until 2007, almost all climbers from the northern side used this “Chinese Ladder” to reach the top much faster. In 2020, a third team returned to Qomolangma to measure its 7 (high) — 8848.86 metres.
Climbing Qomolangma is 8 (danger). Some climbers reach the top 9 (success), but many fail. Why do people still risk their lives to climb the highest mountain in the world? It is because human curiosity and ambition cannot be stopped. Or, as the English explorer George Mallory put it, it is 10 (simple) “because it’s there”!

【导语】本文介绍了一项最新研究,揭示了植物在缺水或茎被切断时会发出声音信号,且不同压力下的植物发声存在差异,这一发现对农业领域具有重要意义。
1.句意:也许你会说这只会发生在一些儿童故事里。stories是名词,前面需要用名词所有格或形容词修饰;children的复数名词所有格形式为children’s,表示“儿童的”,符合“儿童故事”的语境。
2.句意:到目前为止,一项近期研究发现植物在缺水或茎被切断时会发出声音。时间状语So far是现在完成时的标志,主语a recent study是单数,用has,find的过去分词为found。
3.句意:实际上,即使在安静的田地里,也有一些声音传递着信息。此处需要副词修饰整个句子 there are...,actual的副词形式为actually,表示“实际上、事实上”。
4.句意:然而,音高太高,人类听不见。too...to do sth.是固定结构,表示“太……而不能做某事”,因此hear需变为不定式形式to hear。
5.句意:研究人员发现,受压力的植物比未受压力的植物发出的声音更多。句中出现 than,是比较级的标志;many的比较级为more,表示“更多的”。
6.句意:这位老师说,他们还研发了一种机器来区分缺水植物和被切断茎的植物。between…and…是固定搭配,意为“在……和……之间”,符合“区分两种植物”的语境,故填between。
7.句意:结果表明,随着压力的原因发生变化,植物发出的声音也不同。此处表示“当……时/随着……”,引导时间状语从句,用连词when或as均可。
8.句意:在该团队记录了多种其他植物之后,他们发现玉米、小麦和葡萄等植物在受到压力时也会发出声音。此处特指研究的那个团队,用定冠词the修饰team,表示特指。
9.句意:因为其他植物可能会听到受压力植物的信号。other后接可数名词复数,plant的复数形式为plants。
10.句意:例如,人们可以确定玉米是否得到了足够的水分,或者哪里最需要水。whether…or not 是固定搭配,意为“是否”,符合“确定玉米是否有足够水分”的语境。

5.句意:每年,成千上万的火烈鸟来到这里产卵并抚养它们的幼鸟。lay“下(蛋),产(卵)”,此处用不定式作目的状语,表示“来这里的目的是产卵和抚养幼鸟”。
6.句意:湖给了它们一个安全的家,因为很少有动物能到达它们的巢穴。“很少有动物能到达它们的巢穴”是“湖给了它们一个安全的家”的原因,用because“因为”引导原因状语从句。
7.句意:这个湖的美是多变的。句子缺表语,下文提到湖水颜色会变红、粉、银或橙色,说明它的美是多变的,用change“变化”的形容词形式changeable“多变的”。
8.句意:在湖边行走是危险的。be动词is后接形容词作表语,risk“危险”的形容词形式是risky“危险的”。
9.句意:盐壳可能会破裂,人们可能会掉入滚烫的咸水中。fall into意为“掉入、落入”。
10.句意:尽管如此,它仍然是一个参观和学习的神奇之地,尤其是对科学家和摄影师来说。and连接并列成分,photographers“摄影师”是复数,science“科学”对应的职业名词scientist“科学家”也用复数scientists。

7.句意:此外,到目前为止,在琥珀的帮助下,已经发现了 300 多种新物种。根据“more than 300 new species...with the help of amber so far.”可知,“so far”是现在完成时的标志词,且species与discover之间为被动关系,所以用现在完成时的被动语态,结构是:have/has been done,主语为复数,主语用have been discovered。故填have been discovered。
8.句意:伟大的植物学家王教授花了 70 多年时间探索中国的植物。根据“spent over 70 years...China’s plants.”可知,此处考查固定结构“spend time (in) doing sth.”,意为 “花费时间做某事”,所以此处用动名词exploring作宾语。故填exploring。

(25-26八年级下·全国·单元测试)Reaching New Heights
To most people, Mount Qomolangma is the greatest wonder of the world. On the 1 (high) place on earth, you will feel like you are able to touch the sky. But only the 2 (good) climbers reach the top, and that is only if they survive the terrible conditions first. On the mountain, temperatures can fall to -30 degrees. Climbers must also deal with thin air, high cliffs, and 3 (change) weather.
Before 1960, no one was able to reach the top of Qomolangma from the northern side. Mountain climbers even called that way the "Death Road", but a Chinese 4 (climb) team was determined to make the climb.
On 24 May 1960, climbers Liu Lianman, Wang Fuzhou, Qu Yinhua, and Gong Bu arrived at the Second Step. It was 8,600 metres above sea level. People said it was 5 high that even birds could not reach it. Liu allowed his teammates to step on his shoulders. Bit by bit, the climbers pulled themselves up, and they made it past the Second Step. At 4:20 a.m. on 25 May, the Chinese national flag flew above the 6 (high) mountain in the world for the first time.
In 1975, another Chinese team climbed to the top of Qomolangma to do research. This time, they brought a ladder to the Second Step. Until 2007, almost all climbers from the northern side used this “Chinese Ladder” to reach the top much faster. In 2020, a third team returned to Qomolangma to measure its 7 (high) — 8848.86 metres.
Climbing Qomolangma is 8 (danger). Some climbers reach the top 9 (success), but many fail. Why do people still risk their lives to climb the highest mountain in the world? It is because human curiosity and ambition cannot be stopped. Or, as the English explorer George Mallory put it, it is 10 (simple) “because it’s there”!
【答案】
1.highest 2.best 3.changing/changeable 4.climbing 5.so 6.highest 7.height 8.dangerous 9.successfully 10.simply
