【导语】本文围绕“保护环境、践行绿色生活”展开,从随手关灯、自带购物袋、节约用水、保护动物、回收利用等多个方面,给学生提出了具体的环保建议,最后呼吁大家行动起来,从小事做起,共同让世界变得更美好。
1.句意:首先,当你离开房间时,要关掉灯。固定搭配turn off表示 “关掉(电器、灯等)”,是环保节能的基础做法,符合语境。
2.句意:第三,当你洗手或洗澡时,尽量少用水。前文用了First“第一”、Second“第二”,这里用序数词Third“第三”来衔接,表示第三条建议。
3.句意:水是珍贵的,所以我们不应该浪费它。前半句说明“水很珍贵”,后半句说明“不应该浪费”,是因果关系,用连词so“所以”连接。
4.句意:此外,一些动物正处于极大的危险之中。固定搭配in great danger表示“处于极大的危险中”,dangerous是形容词,此处需要名词danger。
5.句意:地球不仅是我们的,也是它们的。此处指代“动物们的(地球)”,空后没有名词,需要名词性物主代词,their是形容词性物主代词,对应的名词性物主代词是theirs。
6.句意:为了拯救它们,我们不能砍伐树木,也不能向河里扔垃圾。此处用不定式To save作目的状语,表示“为了拯救(动物)”,句首首字母需大写。
7.句意:为了拯救它们,我们不能砍伐树木,也不能向河里扔垃圾。结合环保语境,此处表示“不能做某事”,can要变为否定形式can’t。
8.句意:为了拯救它们,我们不能砍伐树木,也不能向河里扔垃圾。否定句中表示并列的两个动作,用连词or连接。
9.句意:记住,即使是微小的行动也能产生巨大的影响。固定搭配make a big difference表示“产生巨大的影响/带来很大改变”,different是形容词,此处需要名词difference。
10.句意:最后,别忘了和你的朋友、家人分享你的想法。固定搭配forget to do sth.表示“忘记去做某事(还没做)”,此处用不定式to share。

【导语】本文主要介绍了日本的本顿山。
1.句意:它是日本最矮的天然山脉,高度仅为6.1米。此处nature的形容词形式natural“自然的”,作定语。故填natural。
2.句意:它位于德岛十号公路沿线肥沃的稻田中央。此处填复数名词表泛指。故填fields。
3.句意:一个人只需要一分钟就能到达山顶,然而每年有超过一万人为了这个特殊的目的来到这里。本句是It takes sb. time to do sth.“做某事花费某人多少时间”的句式,可知填动词不定式。故填to reach。
4.句意:对一些人来说,爬6.1米高的山只是为了放松,而另一些人则来这里欣赏树木和鲜花。此处填simple的副词形式simply“仅仅”,作状语。故填simply。
5.句意:对一些人来说,爬6.1米高的山只是为了放松,而另一些人则来这里欣赏树木和鲜花。根据“both the trees…the flowers”可知此处指“树木和鲜花”;both…and…“既……又……”。故填and。
6.句意:本顿山将于1月1日对游客开放,届时当地政府将组织“新年第一次攀登”活动。此处填tourist的复数形式tourists,表泛指。故填tourists。
7.句意:在这一天,到达6.1米高的山顶的游客将获得一份攀登证明证书作为奖励。根据空后“this day”可知,此处应用介词on,表示具体的一天。故填On。
8.句意:每年,这座日本最矮的山都会举办不同的活动,比如樱花节和婚礼。句子时态为一般现在时,主语“this Japan’s shortest mountain”表示单数概念,谓语动词应用单数第三人称形式。故填holds。
9.句意:事实上,本顿山也是日本最安全的山,这里从未发生过任何事故或失踪报告。根据“in Japan”可知此处填形容词safe的最高级形式。故填safest。

阅读下面短文,根据语境在每个空格内填入一个恰当的词,或填入括号中所给单词的适当形式(不超过两个词),要求所填的词意义准确、形式正确,使短文意思完整、行文连贯。
If we look at our planet from a great distance (距离), it is blue. Blue is 1 color of the ocean, and the ocean 2 (cover) about 71% of our planet’s surface (表面).
More 3 (animal) live in the ocean than on land. There 4 (be) a lot of food in the ocean. The most important food in the ocean is plants. If we take 5 (they) all away, very few animals can live there. Plants in the ocean need clean water and sunlight 6 (grow). But now, there is too much rubbish in the ocean. Many plants and animals die (死亡) 7 the water is too dirty.
The ocean is home to millions of species (物种). It is very important to 8 (human), too. It provides food, water, and even the air 9 people. If we want to protect our planet, we can start with 10 (protect) the ocean.
【答案】
1.the 2.covers 3.animals 4.is 5.them 6.to grow 7.because 8.humans 9.for 10.protecting
【导语】本文介绍了地球表面71%被海洋覆盖,海洋是众多生物的家园,其中植物是海洋食物链的基础。然而,海洋污染导致大量动植物死亡。海洋对人类至关重要,提供食物、水和空气。保护地球应从保护海洋开始。
1.句意:蓝色是海洋的颜色,海洋覆盖了我们地球表面大约71%的面积。根据“Blue is...color of the ocean”可知,此处是特指海洋的颜色,需要用定冠词the来修饰名词color,表示特指,故填the。
2.句意:蓝色是海洋的颜色,海洋覆盖了我们地球表面大约71%的面积。根据“and the ocean...about 71% of our planet’s surface”可知,句子描述的是客观事实,所以时态为一般现在时,主语“the ocean”是第三人称单数,谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式covers,故填covers。
3.句意:生活在海洋里的动物比陆地上的更多。根据“More...live in the ocean than on land.”可知,more后面接可数名词复数或不可数名词,animal是可数名词,这里要用复数形式animals,表示泛指多种动物,故填animals。
4.句意:海洋里有很多食物。根据“There...a lot of food in the ocean.”可知,此句为There be句型,遵循就近原则,“food”是不可数名词,所以be动词要用is,故填is。
5.句意:如果我们把它们都拿走,几乎没有动物能在那里生存。根据“If we take...all away”可知,take是动词,后面需要用人称代词的宾格形式作宾语,they的宾格是them,故填them。
6.句意:海洋中的植物需要干净的水和阳光来生长。根据“Plants in the ocean need clean water and sunlight...”可知,此处表示目的,即植物需要水和阳光的目的是生长,要用动词不定式to do形式作目的状语,所以填to grow。
7.句意:许多植物和动物死亡,因为水太脏了。根据“Many plants and animals die (死亡)...the water is too dirty.”可知,“水太脏”是“许多植物和动物死亡”的原因,所以此处需要用because引导原因状语从句,故填because。
8.句意:它对人类也非常重要。根据“It is very important to...too.”可知,“human”是可数名词,这里表示泛指人类这个群体,要用复数形式humans,故填humans。
9.句意:它为人们提供食物、水,甚至空气。根据“It provides food, water, and even the air...people.”可知,provide sth. for sb.是固定搭配,表示“为某人提供某物”,所以此处填for。
10.句意:如果我们想保护我们的星球,我们可以从保护海洋开始。根据“If we want to protect our planet, we can start with...the ocean.”可知,start with doing sth.是固定用法,表示“从做某事开始”,with是介词,后面接动词的动名词形式,所以填protecting。
二、完形填空
The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is one of the most amazing places on Earth. It is 1 for its white mountains and blue skies. The clouds here are as 2 as cotton, and the rivers shine brightly under the sun. However, climate change is 3 the environment. Glaciers are disappearing, and water levels are 4 . Scientists say if we don’t protect the plateau, its beauty may 5 .
In Madagascar, the rainforest is crying for help. People are 6 trees for wood, and animals like snakes and monkeys are losing their homes. “We must 7 cutting down trees,” says a local guide. “The rainforest is not just plants; it’s a 8 of life.”
The Dead Sea faces similar problems. It is becoming smaller year 9 year. If we take too much water, it might 10 completely. Let’s work together to save these natural wonders!

【导语】本文介绍了青藏高原、雨林和死海面临的环境危机,呼吁人们共同行动,保护这些珍贵的自然奇观,维护生态平衡。
1.句意:它因白山蓝天而闻名。
“be famous for”为固定搭配,可知此处表示“因……而闻名”。其他选项无此搭配且语意不通。
2.句意:这里的云像棉花一样柔软。
根据“as…as cotton”及常识,棉花是软的。其他选项不符合棉花特征。
3.句意:然而,气候变化正在伤害环境。
根据后文“冰川正在消失”可知环境受负面影响,harming伤害,符合句意。developing发展、disappearing消失、suggesting建议,语意不符。
4.句意:冰川正在消失,水位正在下降。
根据“water levels”可知,水位用高低形容,下降用go down。turning into变成、drying up干涸(不能修饰水位)、sitting down坐下,都不符合上下文。
5.句意:科学家说如果我们不保护高原,它的美景可能会消失。
“不保护”会导致美景失去。disappear表示“消失”,符合逻辑。lie躺/说谎、shine发光、express表达,都不符合。
6.句意:人们正在砍伐树木获取木材,蛇和猴子等动物正在失去家园。
根据"for wood"可知目的是木材,需砍树。cutting down表示“砍伐”,符合句意。planting种植、climbing攀爬、turning into变成,动作目的不符。
7.句意:我们必须停止砍伐树木。
砍树让动物失去家园,因此当地人呼吁停止砍树,stop表示“停止”,符合文意。continue继续、start开始、suggest建议,均违背保护主旨。
8.句意:雨林不仅是植物,它是生命的礼物。
雨林珍贵,比喻为自然的馈赠。present礼物,符合句意。surface表面、level水平、behaviour行为,无法体现珍贵性。
9.句意:它年复一年变小。
year by year为固定搭配,表示“逐年”。其他介词无此搭配。
10.句意:如果我们取太多水,它可能会完全干涸。
人类抽取过多水,死海会完全干涸,dry up表示“干涸”,符合语境。float漂浮、melt融化、grow生长,不符合后果。
Good morning, everyone. My name is Nunu, and I am a cute little penguin living in the Antarctic. Today, I want to share my story with you, because my home is 1 , and not in a good way.
I 2 to live happily with my big family in the cold, snowy Antarctic. The ice was thick and strong. I swam quickly in the clear blue sea, walked steadily on the ice, and happily 3 with my friends every day. My home was 4 , quiet, and full of joy. We all loved it so much.
But now, everything is 5 . The weather is becoming warmer and warmer. The thick ice is melting fast. There is less and less 6 for us to live. Many of my friends cannot find a safe place to rest or hatch their eggs. The sea is no longer clean. Rubbish and pollution make it difficult for us to find food. I often feel hungry and 7 . I miss the good old days so much.
We penguins are too 8 to solve these problems by ourselves. We cannot protect our home alone. We really need your help. Please stop polluting the sea and 9 trees. Please care for our earth and keep the Antarctic cold and beautiful.
I 10 hope our home will get better soon. I hope the ice will stop melting, the sea will turn blue again, and all penguins can live safely and happily in the Antarctic forever. Thank you for listening.

【导语】本文以一只名叫Nunu的南极企鹅的口吻,讲述了气候变暖和环境污染给其家园带来的破坏,呼吁人类保护环境,拯救地球。
1.句意:今天,我想和你们分享我的故事,因为我的家园正在改变,而且是朝着不好的方向。
根据后文“not in a good way”以及下文描述的冰川融化等糟糕情况,可知企鹅的家园正在发生改变,对应changing。making“制造”、building“建造”均不符合家园恶化的语境。
2.句意:我过去常常和我的大家庭在寒冷、多雪的南极快乐地生活。
根据后文“The ice was thick and strong.”等过去时的句子可知,此处描述的是过去的状态,固定搭配“used to do sth.”意为“过去常常做某事”,符合语境。decided“决定”、wanted“想要”无法体现过去与现在的对比。
3.句意:我在清澈湛蓝的海水里快速游泳,在冰上平稳地行走,每天和朋友们快乐地玩耍。
根据语境和常识可知,企鹅每天和朋友们一起快乐地玩耍,对应played。shared“分享”、helped“帮助”不符合“日常活动”的语境。
4.句意:我的家园曾经是干净、安静且充满欢乐的。
根据前文“clear blue sea”以及第三段中“The sea is no longer clean.”进行前后文逻辑对比,可知以前的家园是干净的,对应clean。big“大的”、high“高的”与后文的“污染问题”无对比关系。
5.句意:但是现在,一切都不同了。
根据前文描述过去家园的美好,以及后文描述现在冰川融化、环境污染的糟糕情况,可知现在的一切和过去完全不同了,对应different。similar“相似的”、common“普通的”与前后对比的语境矛盾。
6.句意:厚厚的冰融化得很快,我们生存的空间越来越少了。
根据前文“The thick ice is melting fast.”以及后文“Many of my friends cannot find a safe place to rest”可知,冰川融化导致企鹅休息和生存的空间减少,对应space。water“水”、air“空气”不是冰层融化直接减少的生存资源。
7.句意:我经常感到饥饿和害怕。
根据前文“Rubbish and pollution make it difficult for us to find food.”可知,企鹅找不到食物,家园被破坏,因此感到饥饿和害怕,对应的情绪是scared。happy“开心的”与语境相反;sad“悲伤的”不如scared直接体现生存危机下的情绪。
8.句意:我们企鹅太弱小了,无法自己解决这些问题。
根据后文“We cannot protect our home alone.”可知,企鹅力量单薄,无法独自保护家园,固定搭配“too…to…”结合weak意为“太弱小而不能做某事”。small“小的”侧重体型,不体现“能力不足”;little“少的”修饰数量,不符合语境。
9.句意:请停止污染海洋和砍伐树木。
根据前文“Please stop polluting the sea”以及常识可知,保护地球需要停止污染和停止砍伐树木,cutting down符合语境。pouring into“倒入”、falling down“倒下”与“树木”的搭配不符合环保呼吁的语境。
10.句意:我真诚地希望我们的家园能很快变好。
根据后文“I hope the ice will stop melting…”可知,这是企鹅发自内心的真诚呼吁和期盼,sincerely符合语境。carefully“仔细地”、luckily“幸运地”无法体现呼吁的恳切语气。
先通读短文,掌握其大意,然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个可以填入相应空白处的最佳答案。
My grandma is over 60 years old. She is kind and careful. She is a good example of saving water in my family.

She plants some vegetables and fruit trees in our garden. And she also 3 a pond (池塘) in the garden to store water. On rainy days, it can help collect rainwater as well.

Every time I see my grandma save water, I feel 13 of her. She tells me that small actions can make a big 14 . Now, all my family members follow her example and save water together. We believe that if everyone saves a little water, we can have a better 15

【导语】本文讲述奶奶以身作则节约用水的故事。她教导家人珍惜水资源,强调水的重要性,呼吁大家养成节水好习惯,共创美好未来。
1.句意:每天早上,她只用一点点水洗脸,然后把水放进一个桶里。
根据句意,祖母把洗脸水收集起来,所以是把水“放进”桶里。into“进入……里面”,“put... into...”符合语境。outside“在外面”,on“在……上面”和by“通过,在……旁边”均不符合语境。
2.句意:当她洗碗的时候,她从不让水一直流着。
节约用水的常识告诉我们,洗碗时不应让水一直“流淌”。keep the water running意为“让水一直流”,running“流淌,运行”符合语境。moving“移动”,walking“走路”和turning“转动”均不符合语境。
3.句意:她还在花园里挖了一个池塘来储水。
根据后文“to store water”和“pond”,可知动作应该是“挖掘”。digs“挖”符合语境。sells“卖”,buys“买”和finds“找到”均不符合语境。
4.句意:当我洗澡时间太长时,她会敲门告诉我要快一点,以节约用水。
洗澡时间长浪费水,所以祖母会催促“快一点”,quick“快的”,符合语境。slow“慢的”,quiet“安静的”和noisy“吵闹的”均不符合语境。
5.句意:她常说:“水是宝贵的,我们不能浪费它。每一滴都很重要。”
既然水是宝贵的,那么我们就不能“浪费”。waste“浪费”,符合语境。save“节省”,use“使用”,get“得到”均不符合语境。
6.句意:从她那里,我知道了水是多么重要。
祖母的教导让作者明白了水的价值,即水是“重要的”。important“重要的”,符合语境。difficult“困难的”,interesting“有趣的”和boring“无聊的”均不符合语境。
7.句意:因为她的教导,我们在日常生活中都学会了重复利用和节约用水。
节约用水是发生在“日常生活”中的事情。life“生活”,符合语境。job“工作”,school“学校”和work“工作”均不符合语境。
8.句意:同时,我们也在水上花了更少的钱,并得到了新鲜的蔬菜和水果。
通过重复利用水(如浇花、种菜),家庭用水开支会减少,所以是花了“更少”的钱。money是不可数名词,修饰不可数名词表示“更少”用less。more“更多”;fewer“更少”(修饰可数名词);much“很多”均不符合语境。
9.句意:我的祖母不仅善良而且细心。
文章第一段第二句提到“She is kind and careful.”,此处再次呼应。careful“细心的”,符合语境。careless“粗心的”,lazy“懒惰的”和busy“忙碌的”均不符合语境。
10.句意:我希望每个人都能像她一样学会节约用水,因为水对所有生物都非常重要。
水是生命之源,对“生物/活着的”东西很重要。living“活着的,现存的”(可作定语修饰名词),符合语境。alive“活着的”(通常作表语),live“居住,直播”和lively“生动的”均不符合语境。
11.句意:我们应该每天尽最大努力节约用水。
全文主题是节约用水。save“节省,节约”,符合语境。waste“浪费”,pollute“污染”和drink“喝”均不符合语境。
12.句意:她还教我用很多方法重复利用水,比如用洗衣服后的水拖地。
根据后文例子“reusing the water...”可知此处指“重复利用”。reuse“重复利用”,符合语境。throw“扔”,waste“浪费”和pour“倒”均不符合语境。
13.句意:每次看到祖母节约用水,我都为她感到自豪。
作者对祖母的行为持肯定和赞赏态度,因此感到“自豪”。proud“自豪的”,符合语境。sad“难过的”,angry“生气的”和tired“疲惫的”均不符合语境。
14.句意:她告诉我,小小的行动能产生巨大的影响。
这是一个固定搭配,make a big difference意为“产生巨大影响/起作用”。problem“问题”,mistake“错误”和mess“混乱”均不符合语境。
15.句意:我们相信,如果每个人节约一点水,我们就能拥有一个更美好的未来。
节约用水是为了可持续发展,为了将来。future“未来”,符合语境。house“房子”,garden“花园”和family“家庭”均不符合语境。

①Tropical rainforests (热带雨林) are just like their name. They are forests where it rains a lot. In fact, a tropical rainforest receives between 150 and 400 centimetres of rain each year.

The world is full of amazing natural wonders. They make our planet beautiful and colorful.
The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is one of the most wonderful places in China. It is famous for the highest mountain in the world—Mount Qomolangma. The colors there are very amazing. White clouds are clean and soft, just like white sheep walking in the sky. The blue sky is so bright that it gives people a calm and peaceful feeling. Green grasslands and fields are everywhere.
