【导语】本文讲述了匡衡从小酷爱读书,因家贫上不起学,后来向兄弟学认字、为富人家打工借书读,最终在墙上凿洞借邻居灯光夜读,刻苦学习成为中国历史上一位伟人的故事。
1.句意:然而,他家太穷了,他无法去上学。
上文提到匡衡是个小男孩且非常喜欢读书,此处说家里太穷,所以去不了的应是学校,school“学校”符合。bed“床”、hospital“医院”、work“工作”与求学语境不符。
2.句意:匡衡没有钱买书,所以他不得不借用别人的书。
上文说他没钱买书,下文又提到“people who have books don’t want to give their books to others”,说明他是借用别人的书来读,borrow “借用”符合。ask“问”、help“帮助”、make“制作”均不合语境。
3.句意:书是非常重要的东西,有书的人不想把书给别人。
下文说有书的人不愿把书给别人,正因为书很珍贵,important“重要的”符合。boring“无聊的”、funny“有趣的”、difficult“困难的”均无法解释为何别人不愿借出。
4.句意:他为富人家干活,只是想读他们的书。
上文说农忙时他为富人家工作,此处强调他工作的唯一目的就是读书,only“仅仅,只”符合。even“甚至”、already“已经”、soon“不久”均不符合句意逻辑。
5.句意:他没有太多时间读书,所以经常需要十天或半个月才能读完一本书。
上文说他没多少时间读书,此处说明读书速度慢,需要很长时间才能完成一本书,finish“完成”符合。write“写”、draw“画”、buy“买”与读书语境不符。
6.句意:然后他想到一个主意——他可以在晚上花更多时间读书。
“spend time doing sth.”表示“花时间做某事”,spend“花费”符合。use“使用”、take常用“It takes sb. time to do sth.”、save“节省”均不合搭配。
7.句意:但匡衡的父母太穷了,他们根本买不起灯。
上文说父母很穷,此处表示他们完全没有能力买灯,can’t“不能”符合。needn’t“不必”、shouldn’t“不应该”、mustn’t“禁止”均不合语境。
8.句意:一天晚上,他在床上读书时,看到一些光从墙上的小洞透进来。
光线是从洞的另一侧穿过小洞照进来的,through“穿过(从内部通过)”符合。ahead“在前面”、inside“在里面”、into“进入”均不能准确描述光穿过孔洞的过程。
9.句意:他用刀把洞弄得更大,这样就有更多的光,他可以靠近光读书。
上文说光从一个小洞透进来,下文说有了更多的光,说明他把洞凿大了,bigger“更大的”符合。small“小的”、bright“明亮的”、dark“黑暗的”均与语境矛盾。
10.句意:经过长时间的刻苦学习,匡衡成为了中国历史上的一位伟人。
此处表示时间上的先后关系,先刻苦学习,后成为伟人,After“在……之后”符合。Before“在……之前”、So“所以”、But“但是”均不符合逻辑。
Fu Zai is a six-month-old corgi (柯基犬). He will be the 1 corgi to work for the police in China. The police have never used a corgi as a police dog before. These days he comes to some public places in Weifang, Shandong Province, and catches people’s eyes at once.

Wang Yanan, head of the police dog base at the Weifang public security bureau, says that Fu Zai can learn everything quickly and be 5 with food. That 6 the training easy. “Police dogs are not only cute, but trainers have to do a lot of hard work to train 7 ,” Wang said.
After a few months of training, Fu Zai can now use his short legs to find things 8 cars and easily get into and search very small spaces. He can also improve interactions (互动) 9 police dogs and the public because of his cute appearance.

【导语】本文主要讲述了一只名叫Fu Zai的柯基犬成为中国首只警犬的经历,包括其训练过程、能力及公众反应。
1.句意:它将成为中国第一只为警方工作的柯基犬。
根据后文“The police have never used a corgi as a police dog before.”可知,之前警方从未使用过柯基犬作为警犬,因此Fu Zai是第一只,first“第一”符合语境。
2.句意:大多数人认为柯基犬无法加入警队,因为它们的腿太短。
结合后文“the police”和柯基犬成为警犬的背景,此处指加入警队,join“加入”符合语境。
3.句意:Fu Zai因为可爱的笑容、特别的短腿和出色的能力在网上走红。
根据后文“thanks to his cute smile, special short legs and good abilities”,这些特点让它受到关注,famous“著名的/走红的”符合语境。
4.句意:作为一只警犬,Fu Zai面临着很多工作。
此处表示“作为警犬”,As“作为”符合语境;Like“像”、From“来自”、Between“在……之间”均不符合文意。
5.句意:Fu Zai能很快学会所有东西,并且对食物很感兴趣。
根据后文“That makes the training easy”,说明Fu Zai对食物的反应是积极的,能让训练更顺利,因此happy“开心的”符合语境,这里指它对食物很感兴趣、愿意配合;busy“忙碌的”、careful“仔细的”、angry“生气的”均无法和后文“训练变轻松”形成逻辑呼应。
6.句意:这让训练变得容易。
前文提到Fu Zai对食物很感兴趣,这件事使得训练更轻松,makes“使/让”符合语境;lets“让” 后常接不带to的动词原形,helps“帮助”、takes“花费”均不符合此处用法。
7.句意:“警犬不只是可爱,训练员还要做很多艰苦的工作来训练它们。”Wang说。
此处指代前文提到的“police dogs”,是复数形式,用them指代。
8.句意:经过几个月的训练,Fu Zai现在能用它的短腿在车底找到东西,并且很容易进入非常狭小的空间进行搜查。
结合前文“use his short legs to find things”可知,短腿适合进入低矮空间,under强调垂直下方或覆盖下,符合车底语境。
9.句意:因为它可爱的外表,它还能改善警犬和公众之间的互动。
根据固定搭配between A and B,此处是police dogs和the public两者之间的互动,between符合语境。
10.句意:作为一只警犬,Fu Zai还只是新手,未来必须接受更多的训练。
固定搭配a fresh hand表示“新手/生手”,符合它刚开始成为警犬、需要更多训练的语境。
先通读下面的短文,掌握其大意,然后在每小题所给的四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
One night I was sitting in my kitchen half-listening as my 15-year-old son Tommy fought with his brother Kevin. Later, Kevin went upstairs with a hurt look on his face. I didn’t think it was a problem.
About 20 minutes later, as I was walking upstairs, I heard Kevin 1 in his room. I knocked on the door and asked, “Kevin, do you want to 2 ?”
There was no answer. I tried again. Still, 3 happened.
So, I took a piece of paper and wrote, “If you don’t want to talk, we can write notes to each other.” and slipped it under the door.
An hour later, I was still sitting on the floor outside his 4 . A note slipped out. As I read it, I couldn’t help crying. It said, “Nobody in the family loves me. I am not the youngest nor the oldest, and I am not the 5 . Tommy thinks I am too weak. 6 Dad wishes he had another Kevin who is better at basketball. You are 7 around to even notice me.”
He was 8 about my part. Feeling sorry for him, I wrote back, “Kevin, I do love you, and everyone in this family loves you.”
I could hear him crying softly. Half an hour later, a note with “ 9 ” came out. I wrote back, “For what?”
He gave back, “ 10 me.” Since then, I have tried my best to care about my family members.
When one of us notices that the other is unhappy, we’ll smile and say, “Write it on paper.”

【导语】本文讲述一位母亲通过纸条沟通,安抚了在家中感到被忽视、内心难过的儿子凯文,此后一家人学会用心关爱彼此的故事。
1.句意:大约20分钟后,当我走上楼时,我听到凯文正在他房间里哭。
前文提到凯文脸上带着受伤的神情上楼,情绪低落,应是在哭泣,crying“哭”符合语境;singing“唱歌”、talking“交谈”、reading“阅读”均不符合难过的情绪。
2.句意:我敲了敲门问道:“凯文,你想谈谈吗?”
作者看到孩子难过,主动询问是否要交谈谈心,talk“交谈”符合;write“写”此时还未提议,shout“大喊”、cry“哭”不符合家长关心的语境。
3.句意:我又试了一次,依旧什么都没发生。
前文说没有回应,再次敲门还是无动静,nothing“没有事物”符合;everything“一切”、something“某事”、anything“任何事”均与无人回应的语境矛盾。
4.句意:一小时后,我仍然坐在他的门外地板上。
前文一直在门口和凯文沟通,此处是守在门外面,door“门”符合;desk“书桌”、window“窗户”、bed“床”不符合前文场景。
5.句意:我既不是最小的也不是最大的,我也不是最聪明的。
凯文在倾诉自己在家中没有存在感,smartest“最聪明的”符合自我否定的情绪;shortest“最矮的”、fattest“最胖的”、thinnest“最瘦的”均不是家庭中自我价值否定的常见角度。
6.句意:汤米觉得我太软弱,而且爸爸希望能有另一个更擅长篮球的凯文。
前后两句都是凯文倾诉家人对自己的负面看法,是并列关系,and“并且”符合;but“但是”表转折,or“或者”表选择,so“所以”表因果,均不符。
7.句意:你们从来都不会注意到我。
凯文觉得自己被家人忽视,never“从不”符合;always“总是”、often“经常”、sometimes“有时”均和被忽视的语境相反。
8.句意:他认同我说的话是对的。
前文我在纸条上告诉凯文家人都爱他,后文凯文哭泣、回复感谢,说明他认可我的话是正确的,right“正确的”符合语境;worried“担忧的”、sad“难过的”侧重情绪,不符合此处“认同观点”的逻辑;wrong“错误的”与文意相反。
9.句意:半小时后,一张写着“谢谢”的纸条递了出来。
作者表达爱意安慰凯文,凯文心怀感激,Thanks“谢谢”符合;OK“好的”、Goodbye“再见”、Help“帮助”均不符合感激的情绪。
10.句意:他回复道:“爱我。”
后文作者学会关爱家人,凯文纸条是感谢家人的爱,Loving“爱”符合;Helping“帮助”、Remembering“记住”、Hearing“听见”均和后文主题不契合。
My friend and I were sitting on the beach, watching as our girls played in the sand.
Then, the girls ran. About 50 yards from us, a man—maybe in his late 50s—was fishing with huge poles (钓竿) that looked 1 enough to catch a shark. The girls stood next to him and watched him fish. He smiled at them. They ran back to us—all 2 my 3-year-old, Drew.
My brain quickly went into Mama Bear mode (妈妈熊模式). “Drew! Come here! Play with your friends!” I shouted, 3 it seemed my speeches about not talking to strangers didn’t work.
I felt 4 when Drew came back. She looked me square in the eye and said, “I 5 to be with the man.” She ran back and sat next to him.
Over the next minute or so, I 6 my girl to make sure nothing was wrong. Just a man fishing. A little girl sitting.
A few seconds later, she ran back to us, 7 something very shiny (闪亮的).
“Mom, look! A toy fish!”
It must have been what he was using for fishing. And he’d given it to Drew. The three other girls were surprised and all 8 for the fish.
And there he was: the man, standing right next to us and holding three more “fish”. He 9 one to each girl.
I realized that there is bad in the world but there is also 10 in strangers, and lessons for mothers to learn that only 3-year-olds can teach them.

【导语】本文主要讲了作者在海滩上起初担心女儿和陌生男子接触,后来发现这位男子友善地给孩子们赠送玩具鱼,让作者感悟到陌生人身上也存在善意。
1.句意:大约在离我们50码的地方,一个或许五十多岁的男人正用巨大的钓竿钓鱼,那钓竿看起来大到足以钓上一条鲨鱼。
根据后文“enough to catch a shark(足以钓上鲨鱼)”,形容钓竿尺寸大,big“大的”符合。tall侧重高度,old“旧的”,thin“细的”均不符合语境。
2.句意:女孩们站在他旁边看他钓鱼,他朝她们微笑,然后女孩们跑回我们身边——除了我三岁的女儿德鲁。
前文女孩们都回来,后文唯独德鲁没回来,存在转折关系,but“除了”符合。with“和”,along“沿着”,over“越过”逻辑不通。
3.句意:“德鲁!过来!和你的小伙伴们玩!”我大喊道,但我那些关于不要和陌生人说话的告诫似乎没起作用。
前文是我呼喊女儿,后文是告诫没起效,前后为转折关系,but“但是”符合。and表并列,or表选择,so表因果,均不符。
4.句意:当德鲁回来时,我松一口气。
根据前文我担心女儿和陌生人接触,此处看到她回来心情应是relieved“松一口气的”。excited“兴奋的”,sad“难过的”,tired“疲惫的”均不符合语境。
5.句意:她直视着我的眼睛说:“我想要和那个男人待在一起。”
want to do sth.为固定搭配,意为“想要做某事”,此处表示女儿想和男人待在一起,want符合。try“尝试”,agree“同意”,plan“计划”搭配及语义均不符。
6.句意:在接下来大约一分钟里,我留意着我的女儿,确保一切安好。
keep an eye on意为“留意、照看”,符合我时刻关注女儿的语境。take care of“照顾”,catch up with“赶上”,look forward to“期待”均不符合。
7.句意:几秒钟后,她跑回我们身边,手里拿着某个闪闪发亮的东西。
根据后文“A toy fish!(一个玩具鱼!)”,可知女儿手里拿着东西,holding“拿着”符合。hiding“躲藏”,throwing“扔”,buying“买”均不符。
8.句意:另外三个女孩很惊讶,都向他索要玩具鱼。
ask for为固定搭配,意为“索要”,此处表示女孩们想要玩具鱼,ask符合。search“寻找”,wait“等待”,talk“交谈”均不符合。
9.句意:他把一个玩具鱼递给每个女孩。
hand sth. to sb.意为“把某物递给某人”,此处表示男人分发玩具鱼,hand符合。borrow“借入”,lend“借出”,turn“转动”语义不符。
10.句意:我意识到世界上有不好的事情,但陌生人身上也存在善意,还有只有三岁孩子能教会母亲的道理。
根据前文男人善意地给女孩们玩具鱼,此处应是kindness“善意”。law“法律”,trouble“麻烦”,happiness“快乐”均不符合语境。
Last month, I joined a paper-cutting club at my community centre. I always thought paper-cutting was a difficult art, 1 my Chinese teacher told me anyone could try it.
At the first lesson, the teacher, Ms Zhao, a paper-cutting 2 , showed us her works. There were beautiful pictures of flowers, animals and 3 . I was surprised that a simple piece of paper could become so wonderful with just a pair of 4 .
I started with a simple bamboo pattern. My hands shook at first, and I made many mistakes. But Ms Zhao was very 5 . She told me, “Paper-cutting is full of life. You need to be patient and feel the paper.” After 6 many times, I finally finished my first work. It was not 7 , but I was really proud (自豪) of it.
Now I go to the club every week. I love to 8 my wishes through paper-cutting. I make “double happiness” for my cousin’s wedding, and bamboo patterns for my grandma to wish her a 9 and healthy life.
Paper-cutting brings me a lot of fun. It helps me learn about this traditional folk art, and I can 10 the warmth and beauty of Chinese culture from it.

【导语】本文讲述了作者加入社区剪纸俱乐部的经历,从最初觉得剪纸很难,到在老师的耐心指导下完成第一幅作品,并逐渐通过剪纸表达祝福、感受传统文化之美。
1.句意:我一直以为剪纸是一门很难的艺术,但我的语文老师告诉我任何人都可以尝试。
前后为转折关系:觉得难,但老师说可以尝试,应用but表示“但是”。so表结果,because表原因,or表选择,均不符合逻辑关系。
2.句意:在第一节课上,老师赵女士——一位剪纸大师——向我们展示了她的作品。
根据下文她展示精美作品并给予指导,可知她是剪纸“大师”,应选用master。visitor“访客”,engineer“工程师”,student“学生”,均不符合语境。
3.句意:有美丽的花、动物和风景的图片。
根据上文列举“flowers, animals”,以及剪纸常见题材,可知还包括“风景”,应选用landscapes。villages“村庄”,houses“房子”,yards“院子”,均不如landscapes全面。
4.句意:我很惊讶,仅仅用一把剪刀,一张简单的纸就能变得如此美妙。
根据常识,剪纸的主要工具是“剪刀”,应选用scissors。knives“刀”,tools“工具”(范围太广),sticks“棍子”,均不符合语境。
5.句意:但赵老师非常和蔼。
根据下文她耐心指导作者,可知她“和蔼”,应选用kind。strict“严格的”,angry“生气的”,tired“疲倦的”,均不符合语境。
6.句意:练习了很多次之后,我终于完成了我的第一幅作品。
根据语境,通过多次“练习”才完成作品,应用practicing。reading“阅读”,watching“观看”,thinking“思考”,均不符合语境。
7.句意:它并不完美,但我真的为它感到自豪。
根据上文作者是初学者,第一次完成的作品不够“完美”,应用perfect。careful“小心的”,soft“柔软的”,expensive“昂贵的”,均不符合语境。
8.句意:我喜欢通过剪纸来表达我的祝福。
根据下文为表妹婚礼剪“双喜”,为奶奶剪竹子图案,可知是通过剪纸“表达”愿望和祝福,应用express。forget“忘记”,share“分享”,show“展示”,均不如express准确。
9.句意:我为表妹的婚礼剪“双喜”,为奶奶剪竹子图案,祝愿她平安健康。
结合上文“wish her a...and healthy life”,空格处应与healthy并列,共同表达对奶奶生活的美好祝愿。safe意为“平安的”,符合对老人的祝福语境。busy“忙碌的”、hard“艰难的”、rich“富有的”,均不符合语境。
10.句意:它帮助我了解这门传统民间艺术,我可以从中感受到中国文化的温暖与美好。
根据语境,通过剪纸“感受”文化的温度与美,应用feel。miss“想念”,see“看见”,hear“听见”,均不贴切。
阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Adam’s father doesn’t keep any cows or pigs on his farm. There are beans, pears and tomatoes.
Adam doesn’t mind that there are no 1 . He likes living on the fruit-and-vegetable farm. He thinks it’s amazing that his dad can make something in the place where there was 2 in the past.
“I’m planting 3 today, son,” his father says. “They grow best in hot summer, 4 I need to plant them early in spring. There will be tall and healthy tomato vines when 5 arrives.” “How do you know they will grow tall and healthy?” Adam asks. “They grow strong when you give them much care and some hope.” says the father.
When Adam is 6 he helps his father. And he learns that a tomato plant needs much 7 . He spends one whole day in June putting wooden sticks into the ground next to young tomato plants to help them grow taller.
“Most 8 things need a lot of care. Adam. We should focus on things that make our lives better.” says the father with a smile. “Oh, I see. That is 9 you love Mom.” says Adam. “Yes.” replies his father, “I really care about you and Mom because you both make my life better.”
Adam thinks taking care of the tomato plants is 10 like taking care of his mom and dad. With enough care, he is sure these will be tall and healthy tomato vines when August arrives.

【导语】本文讲述了Adam在农场帮助父亲种西红柿,并从中懂得关爱家人的重要性。
1.句意:Adam并不介意没有动物。
根据上文“doesn’t keep any cows or pigs”可知,农场里没有奶牛和猪,因此此处指“动物”。animals“动物”符合语境。hills“山丘”;gardens“花园”;rivers“河流”均与上文内容不符。
2.句意:他认为父亲能在过去什么都没有的地方种出东西,这很神奇。
根据“make something in the place”可知,此处表示过去什么都没有。从无到有才会让作者感到神奇。nothing“什么都没有”符合语境。everything“一切”;anything“任何事物”一般用于否定句和疑问句;something“某事物”均不符合句意。
3.句意:“儿子,我今天在种西红柿。”爸爸说。
根据下文“There will be tall and healthy tomato vines”可知,此处指种西红柿。tomatoes“西红柿”符合语境。potatoes“土豆”;carrots“胡萝卜”;beans“豆子”均不符合。
4.句意:它们在炎热的夏天长得最好,所以我需要在早春种下它们。
根据“They grow best in hot summer”与“I need to plant them early in spring”可知,前后是因果关系,前因后果,因此应用so“所以”。but“但是”表示转折;because“因为”引导原因;or“或者”表示选择,均不符合语境。
5.句意:当八月到来时,西红柿藤会长得又高又健康。
根据上文“hot summer”以及下文“when August arrives”可知,此处指八月。August“八月”符合语境。April“四月”;May“五月”;October“十月”均不符合。
6.句意:当Adam有空时,他会帮助父亲。
根据“he helps his father”可知,应是在有空的时候帮忙。free“空闲的”符合语境。tired“疲惫的”;busy“忙碌的”;lucky“幸运的”均不符合句意。
7.句意:他了解到西红柿植株需要很多照顾。
根据下文“Most...things need a lot of care.”可知,此处指需要很多照顾。attention“关注,照顾”符合语境。sunshine“阳光”;water“水”;air“空气”虽然植物需要,但与下文呼应不够准确。
8.句意:大多数重要的事情都需要很多照顾。
根据“We should focus on things that make our lives better.”可知,此处指重要的事情。important“重要的”符合语境。strange“奇怪的”;popular“受欢迎的”;expensive“昂贵的”均不符合句意。
9.句意:“哦,我明白了。这就是你爱妈妈的原因。”Adam说。
根据“That is...you love Mom.”可知,此处表示原因,应用why“为什么”。when“什么时候”;how“怎样”;where“哪里”均不符合语境。
10.句意:Adam认为照顾西红柿植株就像照顾爸爸妈妈一样。
根据“like taking care of his mom and dad”可知,此处考查固定搭配just like“就像”。only“仅仅”;even“甚至”;really“真正地”均不符合固定搭配。
It was summer. After cycling 33 kilometres, my cousin Gabriel and I were 1 . We planned to get lunch and then 2 back to Valence, where I was spending my holiday with Gabriel’s family.
We bought a baguette. As we ate, I noticed a girl in a queue smiling at us.
I met her again when she sat on a bench, enjoying her bread in front of a riverboat named Voyageur. Soon she boarded the boat. Then I noticed a colourful handbag on the bench. The girl had left it!
She was on the upper deck (甲板)! I held up the bag and 3 it to get her attention. When she noticed the bag, she opened her mouth 4 . But her face fell—the boat started to pull away from the dock (码头).
“We can return it! The boat’s next stop is Valence!” Gabriel came up.
“Great! But do you think we can 5 ?” I asked.
Gabriel laughed. “We’re going to find out!”
It was a race now: us against the boat. If the boat beat (打败) us to Valence, we might 6 have the chance to give back the bag.
Pedaling hard, we quickly caught up to the Voyageur. When the boat disappeared (消失) behind us, we felt confident enough to relax our pace.
Then it happened: pffft! Flat tire (轮胎漏气)! My heart sank.
We had to stop and take out tools when the Voyageur was coming near. I saw the girl again. She noticed our 7 and shook her head sadly.
After quickly 8 it , we were back on our way. The boat pulled ahead. We watched 9 as the boat disappeared around a bend.
Finally we arrived, but the Voyageur had docked. We failed!
Gabriel suddenly shouted, “I see her!”
The girl was strolling towards us! “You followed my boat!” she smiled.
“No, your boat followed us,” I joked. “ 10 I got a flat tire, that is.” I handed her the bag.

【导语】本文主要讲述了作者和表弟骑车度假时,发现女孩遗落手提包,决定骑车追船归还,途中经历爆胎波折,最终成功归还的故事。
1.句意:在骑了33公里的自行车后,我和我的表弟Gabriel都很饿。
根据下文“We planned to get lunch”可知,二人打算吃东西,hungry“饥饿的”符合;lazy“懒惰的”、relaxed“放松的”、bored“无聊的”不符合语境。
2.句意:我们计划去吃午饭,然后骑车回Valence,当时我正和加布里埃尔一家在那里度假。
根据上文“After cycling 33 kilometres”可知,他们是骑自行车来的,所以回去也是“骑车”,ride“骑行”符合;walk“步行”、drive“开车”、fly“坐飞机”不符合上文骑行的设定。
3.句意:我举起包,挥手引起她的注意。
根据下文“to get her attention”可知,举起包并“挥动”是合理的吸引注意力的动作,waved“挥手、挥舞”符合;threw“扔掉”、opened“打开”、dropped “丢下”语义错误。
4.句意:当她注意到包时,她惊讶地张开了嘴。
根据上文“When she noticed the bag”可知,女孩发现自己遗落的包被他人捡到,第一反应应是“惊讶”,in surprise“吃惊地”符合;in fear“害怕地”、in silence“沉默地”、in sadness“难过地”不合情境。
5.句意:我问:“棒极了!但你觉得我们能追上吗?”
根据上文“It was a race now”和下文“Pedaling hard, we quickly caught up to the Voyageur”可知,两人担心能否“追上”船,catch up“赶上”符合;break down“出故障”、go out“外出”、get away“逃离”不符。
6.句意:如果船先我们到Valence,我们可能永远没有机会归还包了。
根据上文“If the boat beat us to Valence”可知,若船先到,女孩可能离开,两人就“再也没有”还包的机会,never“永不”符合;usually“通常”、sometimes“有时”、always“总是”逻辑相反。
7.句意:她注意到我们的麻烦,伤心地摇了摇头。
根据上文“Flat tire! My heart sank.”可知,自行车轮胎漏气是二人遇到的“麻烦”,trouble“麻烦、困境”符合;happiness“开心”、joy“喜悦”、success“成功”相反。
8.句意:快速修理后,我们又上路了。
根据上文“took out tools”和爆胎的语境可知,二人停下来“修理”自行车,fixing“修理”符合;sleeping“睡觉”、riding“骑行”、swimming“游泳”不符。
9.句意:我们无助地看着船在一个弯道处消失了。
根据上文“The boat pulled ahead.”可知,船超过了二人,二人只能“无助地”看着它消失,helplessly“无助地”符合;happily“开心地”、angrily“生气地”、excitedly“兴奋地”不合心情。
10.句意:“不,是你的船跟着我们,”我开玩笑说,“直到我轮胎漏气为止。”
根据语境,作者调侃船跟着他们,但这种状态持续到爆胎那一刻为止,之后船就超过了他们,after“在……之后”、when“当……时”、if “如果”,只有until“直到”贴合玩笑句意。
There are many homeless (无家可归的) dogs at Jacksonville Humane Society (JHS). Hopper is one of them. He often spends his days 1 by the door. For what? Well, maybe for a kind person to offer a home for him. In fact, every Tuesday is special for Hopper, 2 a volunteer comes to JHS to read him a book.
Every time 9-year-old Nehemiah arrives, Hopper’s 3 moves quickly. He is so cheerful to see his friend again. “Hopper is an active dog full of 4 . But when the volunteer comes to read, he is different. Instead of (代替) jumping around, Hopper sits 5 in front of him. He always listens carefully when the volunteer tells stories,” said Samantha Ahnen, head of JHS.
The Pawsitive Readers is an activity organized by (由……组织) JHS. Lots of students take part in it, including Nehemiah. Each time, the boy spends an hour with Hopper. Nehemiah said, “Hopper changed a lot. I think reading can help him 6 and give him a sense of safety.”
“Studies show that reading makes many animals relaxed. Hopper is a perfect 7 . At JHS, we try to do 8 we can to make the dogs comfortable,” said Samantha.
Nehemiah enjoys being part of JHS. The volunteer work not only brings him 9 , but offers Hopper comfort. He is 10 that Hopper can enjoy himself at JHS, but he hopes Hopper can find a new home soon.
Would you like to be Hopper’s family? Visit JHS and bring him home. Hopper will bring great fun to you!

【导语】本文讲述流浪狗Hopper在收容所通过志愿者读书活动变得平静,展现了人与动物间的温暖互动,呼吁人们领养。
1.句意:他经常花时间在门口等待。
根据“for a kind person to offer a home”,可知他在等主人。waiting表示“等待”,符合“希望被领养”的语境。
2.句意:每周二对Hopper很特别,因为志愿者来读书。
前半句“every Tuesday is special for Hopper”与后半句“a volunteer comes to JHS to read him a book”是因果关系,后半句解释了每周二特别的原因,故用because引出原因,符合语境。
3.句意:Hopper的尾巴摇得很快。
根据“moves quickly”和常识可知,狗高兴时摇尾巴,tail表示“尾巴”,符合逻辑。
4.句意:Hopper是一只充满活力的活跃狗狗。
根据“Hopper is an active dog”可知,Hopper是一只活泼的狗,故此处应该表示充满“活力”,energy表示“能量、活力”,符合语境。
5.句意:Hopper静静地坐在他面前。
根据“Instead of jumping around”可知,此处与“跳来跳去”相反,可以推测是安静地坐着,quietly表示“安静地”,符合语境。
6.句意:我认为阅读能帮他平静下来并给他安全感。
根据“give him a sense of safety”可知,有安全感会让他平静下来,固定短语calm down表示“平静下来”,符合语境。
7.句意:Hopper是一个完美的例子。
根据“Studies show that reading makes many animals relaxed”以及前面Hopper的行为可知,Hopper的例子证明了这项研究,故Hopper是例证。example表示“例子”,符合逻辑。
8.句意:我们尽力做一切事情让狗舒适。
根据“make the dogs comfortable”可知,此处是说尽力让狗狗舒适,固定搭配do everything we can意为“尽一切努力”,符合语境。
9.句意:志愿工作不仅给他带来快乐,也让Hopper感到安慰。
根据后半句“offers Hopper comfort”可知,除了让Hopper感到安慰,志愿工作也给他带来积极情感,joy表示“快乐”,符合积极的语境。
10.句意:他确信Hopper在收容所能享受乐趣,但希望它找到新家。
根据“but he hopes Hopper can find a new home soon.”可知,but表示转折,故前半句是在肯定事实。certain表示“确定”,符合语境。
I am very thankful to the cat and it always makes me think of the time I was with him.
Five years ago, when my father was 1 , I traveled a thousand miles from my home to be with him in his last days. I felt very sad and it was one of the most difficult and painful times in my life. After he passed away, I was 2 in his apartment. There were so many things to 3 . I was lonely and I hated the 4 of the apartment.
But one evening the silence was broken. I heard crying outside. I opened the door and found a little cat on the floor. He was thin and poor. I brought him inside and gave him a can of fish. He ate it and then soon fell asleep.
The next morning I asked the neighbors and learned that the cat had been left by his owner. His owner had moved away, 5 the little cat was there all alone, just like I was. As I walked back to the apartment, I tried to work out what to do with 6 . I had something else to do, so taking care of the cat seemed like the very 7 thing I could do. But as soon as I opened the door, he ran to me and lay by my feet. It was clear from that moment that he didn’t want to go anywhere. I started calling him Willis in order to remember my father’s best friend.
From then on, things grew 8 . With Willis, time seemed to pass much faster. Finally, when the time came for me to return to my own home, I had to decide 9 to do about Willis. There was no way I would leave without him.
It’s been five years since my father died. Over the years, several people have said I was so nice to 10 the cat. But I know that we saved each other. I may have given him a home but he gave me something greater.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者在父亲病重、离世后的孤独时光里,偶遇并收养了一只被遗弃的小猫Willis,彼此陪伴、互相治愈的故事。
1.句意:五年前,当我父亲快要去世时,我从千里之外的家赶来,陪他度过最后的日子。
根据后文“in his last days”和“After he passed away”可知,父亲当时处于弥留之际,dying“垂死的、即将离世的”符合语境;brave“勇敢的”、strong“强壮的”、hopeful“充满希望的”均与后文逻辑不符。
2.句意:他去世后,我独自一人待在他的公寓里。
根据后文“I was lonely”可知,作者是独自留在公寓里,alone“独自的”符合语境;sleepy“困倦的”、awake“醒着的”、afraid“害怕的” 均与“孤独”的背景不直接对应。
3.句意:有太多事情需要处理。
结合语境,父亲去世后,公寓里有很多事务需要处理,deal with“处理、应对”符合语境;turn over“翻转、移交”、come on“加油、过来”、go with“伴随、与……相配”均不符合此处“处理后事”的逻辑。
4.句意:我很孤独,也讨厌公寓里的寂静。
根据后文“But one evening the silence was broken”可知,作者此时讨厌的是公寓里的silence “寂静”;noise“噪音”、sound“声音”、voice“嗓音”均与后文“打破寂静”的线索矛盾。
5.句意:他的主人搬走了,所以这只小猫就独自待在那里,就像我一样。
前后句为因果关系:主人搬走,因此小猫被独自留下,so“所以”符合逻辑;because“因为”、though“虽然”、since“自从/因为”均不符合此处因果逻辑。
6.句意:当我走回公寓时,我努力想弄清楚该怎么处理他。
此处指代前文提到的“a little cat”,且后文用“he ran to me”呼应,故用him指代这只小猫;her“她/她的”、me“我”、them“他们/它们”均与指代对象不符。
7.句意:我还有别的事情要做,所以照顾这只猫在我看来是最不情愿做的事。
结合上下文,作者刚经历丧父之痛,内心混乱又孤独,确实没心思照顾猫;“the very last thing I could do”在这里不是指“顺序上的最后一件事”,而是英语的固定用法,意思是“我最不想做、最不情愿做的事”,last“最后的”符合语境;first“第一的”、second“第二的”、middle“中间的”均不符合逻辑。
8.句意:从那以后,事情变得容易了。
根据后文“With Willis, time seemed to pass much faster.”可知,小猫的出现让作者的日子不再难熬,easier“更容易的”符合语境;harder“更难的”、heavier“更沉重的”、worse “更糟的”均与后文积极的转折不符。
9.句意:最后,当我要回自己家的时候,我不得不决定关于Willis该做什么。
结合上下文,作者需要决定的是关于这只猫的具体安排,此处用“疑问词 + 不定式”结构作“decide”的宾语。“do”是及物动词,需要接宾语,what可以充当“do”的逻辑宾语,构成固定搭配what to do about...“关于……要做什么/如何处理……”;而how是疑问副词,只能表示方式,不能作宾语,因此how to do后必须加宾语才完整,不符合此处用法;where“哪里”、which“哪一个”均与语境及语法不符。
10.句意:这些年来,好几个人都说我收留这只猫真是太好了。
下文“But I know that we saved each other.”中的“saved”与此处形成呼应,指作者救助、收留了这只被遗弃的小猫,用save符合语境;report“报告”、catch“抓住”、carry“携带”均与“收留流浪猫、彼此救赎”的文意不符。
What would you paint if someone asked you to tell him about China? For the young Mao Mofei from Chengdu Xichuan Middle School, the answer is a colourful integration (结合) of the 1 and the modern China. Mao’s 2 , Future Is Coming, was shown at the International Youth Art Invitation Exhibition in Florence, Italy.
“My picture 3 my view of what my hometown of Chengdu will be like in the future: People live in a fast-paced life with 5G and high-speed railways and are also able to enjoy a 4 time with tea and hot pot; there are skyscrapers and robots everywhere, as well as green forests, clean rivers and wild animals; 5 are sending spaceships into space, while artists are performing folk art, such as Sichuan Opera,” said Mao. “I want to show the attractions of China to the world.”
Mao started to learn painting 6 an early age. The paper and brushes have not only become her wings of imagination but also her tools to build friendships. When Mao was in the second grade, she got a 7 to visit an Indonesian school. There, she used fun pictures to tell Indonesian students the meanings of different Chinese characters. The local students really enjoyed her paintings and learned a lot about Chinese culture. She 8 made friends with her “students”.
“People around the world speak different languages, 9 art is the language that we always use and can all understand. I want to make more people understand art and 10 something with them—that’s what I love most about art.” said Mao.

【导语】本文讲述了成都学生毛墨菲通过绘画展示传统与现代结合的中国,并在国际展览中分享艺术,促进文化交流的故事。
1.句意:对于成都西川中学的年轻学生毛墨菲来说,答案是古代与现代中国的多彩结合。
ancient China是固定搭配,意为“古代中国”,和后文modern China“现代中国”形成鲜明对比,ancient“古代的”符合语境。folk“民间的”、local“当地的”无法和modern构成对立;traditional“传统的”侧重风俗文化,不与modern对应。
2.句意:毛墨菲的画作《未来已来》在意大利佛罗伦萨的国际青年艺术邀请展上展出。
前文一直在谈论画画,后文也出现“My picture”,picture与painting同义,指画作。writing“写作”、photo“照片”、novel“小说”均和“绘画”主题无关。
3.句意:我的画展示了我对家乡成都未来样子的看法。
根据主语“picture”及宾语“view”可知,画作用来展示观点,show符合逻辑。tells/teaches/says主语通常为人,不符合语境。
4.句意:人们一边享受5G、高铁的快节奏生活,也能伴着清茶、火锅度过悠闲时光。
根据“enjoy”及“tea and hot pot”可知,这是令人愉悦的活动,“wonderful time”为固定搭配。boring“无聊的”;simple“简单的”;relaxed“放松的”均不符合语境。
5.句意:科学家将宇宙飞船送入太空,而艺术家表演民间艺术,例如川剧。
根据“sending spaceships into space”可知,这是科学家的工作,且与后文“artists”形成对比。artists“艺术家”;lawyers“律师”;craftspeople“工匠”职业与航天任务不符。
6.句意:毛墨菲从小就开始学习绘画。
固定搭配from an early age,表示“从幼年起、从小”。during“在……期间”、with“和……一起”、by“通过”均无此固定用法。
7.句意:当毛墨菲二年级时,她得到一个参观印度尼西亚学校的机会。
根据“to visit”可知,“get a chance to do sth”意为“得到做某事的机会”,符合语境,chance“机会”。time“时间”;change“改变”;taste“味道”语义不通。
8.句意:她甚至和她的“学生”们成为了朋友。
副词even表递进,意为“甚至”,承接上文“学生喜欢她的画、学到很多知识”,进一步说明收获。still“仍然”、just“仅仅”、only“只”,无法体现递进关系。
9.句意:世界各地的人们说不同的语言,但艺术是我们始终使用且都能理解的语言。
前半句“语言不同”,后半句“艺术可以互通”,前后是转折关系,but表示转折。because“因为”,表原因、and“并且”,表并列、so“所以”,表结果,逻辑不符。
10.句意:我想让更多人理解艺术并与他们分享一些东西。
“share sth with sb”为固定搭配,意为“与某人分享某物”,符合作者想用艺术和世界分享中国文化的语境。design“设计”、respect“尊重”、hand“传递”,无法和后文with them搭配,语义也不通。
Mount Qomolangma is the highest mountain in the world. It lies in the Himalayas, 1 Nepal and China. Many climbers want to reach its 2 . The first people to reach the peak (顶峰) were Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in 1953. Since then, thousands of people have tried to climb to the peak.
One of the greatest climbers is Erik Weihenmayer. Like all other climbers, Erik faced 3 winds, snow, and avalanches (雪崩). But what really made Erik’s climb incredible (令人难以置信的) is the fact that he has been unable to see since the age of 13. At 16, he started climbing. By 2001, he became the first blind person to 4 Qomolangma’s peak, the highest point on our planet.
Erik climbed with a team of 19 people. They wore bells so Erik could hear them. Teammates shouted such warnings as “Big rock to the left!” or “Ice falling on the right!” Erik also used special ice tools to 5 his way across the ice rock and snow on the mountain.
The climb was very hard, 6 the blowing of strong winds and the falling of ice rocks. When Erik climbed higher, the air became 7 . He needed an oxygen mask to 8 . At night, his team slept in tents with warm sleeping bags.
For two months, Erik faced many dangers. He climbed through snow and ice, sometimes even falling into cracks (裂缝). His hands got frostbite, but he kept going. Finally, after 75 days, he made it to the summit. Everyone cheered excitedly when they saw his flag 9 on the mountain.
This story shows that 10 blind people can do amazing things. Erik said, “The mountain teaches us never to give up.”

【导语】本文是记叙文,讲述盲人登山者埃里克克服重重阻碍成功登顶珠穆朗玛峰的故事,传达出永不放弃的精神。
1.句意:它位于喜马拉雅山脉,在尼泊尔和中国之间。
根据“Nepal and China”表示两国之间,between用于两者之间,符合题意。among用于三者及以上之间,in表在内部,on表在表面,其余均不合适。
2.句意:许多登山者想要到达它的顶端。
根据登山目标及后文“peak”可知,top顶端,符合题意。foot山脚、side侧边、bottom底部均不符合。
3.句意:和其他所有登山者一样,埃里克要面对强风、大雪和雪崩。
strong表示“强劲的”,对应登山遇到的恶劣天气,符合语境。magic神奇的、weak微弱的、amazing令人惊奇的均不符合。
4.句意:2001年,他成为第一个到达珠穆朗玛峰顶峰的盲人。
reach是及物动词,可直接接宾语“顶峰”,符合语法。get后需加介词to,arrive后需加介词at/in,take表示带走,均不符合语法或语义。
5.句意:埃里克也用特殊的冰具触碰探路,穿过山上的冰岩和积雪。
埃里克是盲人看不见,需要用工具触碰探路,touch符合逻辑。smell闻、watch看、point指均不符合盲人登山的逻辑。
6.句意:这次攀登非常艰难,伴随着强风劲吹和冰岩滚落。
with表示“伴随”,符合此处“攀登过程伴有恶劣环境”的语义。by被、from来自、for为了,均不合适。
7.句意:当埃里克爬得更高,空气变得更加稀薄。
海拔越高空气越稀薄,thinner表示“更稀薄的”符合地理常识。thicker更浓密、colder更冷、warmer更暖,均不符合对高海拔空气的描述。
8.句意:他需要氧气面罩来呼吸。
氧气面罩的作用是帮助呼吸,breathe符合语义。walk走路、talk说话、move移动,均不符合氧气面罩的用途。
9.句意:当他们看到他的旗帜在山上飘扬时,所有人都兴奋欢呼。
waving表示“飘扬”,符合旗帜在山顶迎风飘动的场景。shining闪耀、raising是及物动词后需接宾语语法不符、falling落下,均不合适。
10.句意:这个故事告诉我们,即使是盲人也能做成了不起的事。
even表示“甚至,即使”,符合此处强调盲人挑战极限创造奇迹的语义。only只有、still仍然、also也,均不符合语义逻辑。
There was an eight-year-old boy named Peter. He lived in a village close to the sea. The villagers built a sea wall to 1 the sea water from running into the village.
One day, Peter was walking along the sea wall when it started to rain. Suddenly, he saw a hole in the wall. The sea water was 2 fast through it. He got to know it was a big problem—it meant the village would be destroyed soon. He shouted loudly for help, but no answer came. He thought he should do 3 else then. He started to run to the village.
At that time, it was getting 4 and the rain became heavier and heavier. 5 Peter was wet all over and felt cold and hungry, he still ran on and on. In the rain, he fell down over and over again. Many times, he thought about 6 , but he didn’t. He remembered his father’s words, “Lots of strong men worked hard to build the wall to keep the village safe. The sea wall is really 7 to all the villagers.”
Finally, when Peter ran into his village, he was so tired. He told the villagers 8 was happening. Then the sea wall was repaired at once. “He is a 9 . He saved the village.” They thanked Peter. From then on, all the villagers would call the boy “Peter the Guard” when they 10 him. And Peter would laugh every time.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述男孩Peter发现海堤漏洞,不顾恶劣天气跑回村庄报信,最终拯救村庄的感人故事。
1.句意:村民建海堤是为了阻止海水流入村庄。
固定搭配“stop...from doing sth.”表示“阻止……做某事”,符合修筑海堤的目的;move“移动”、drive“驾驶”、free“释放”均不符合语境,故选stop。
2.句意:海水正快速地从中流过。
根据语境,海水穿过堤坝的洞快速流淌,run表示“流动”,此处为过去进行时,用running;leave“离开”、arrive“到达”、drive“驾驶”均不修饰海水,故选running。
3.句意:他想他应该做些别的事情。
本句为肯定句,something else表示“别的一些事”;anything多用于否定/疑问句,nothing“没有事”、everything“所有事”逻辑不通,故选something。
4.句意:天色变暗了,雨越下越大。
get dark是固定表达,意为“天色变黑”;light“明亮的”、black“黑色的(颜色)”、bright“明亮的”均不符合天色变化的语境,故选dark。
5.句意:虽然 Peter 浑身湿透,又冷又饿,他仍然继续跑。
前后为让步关系,Although意为“尽管”,引导让步状语从句;But表转折、And表并列、So表因果,均不符合逻辑,故选Although。
6.句意:很多次,他想要放弃,但他没有。

Every time 9-year-old Nehemiah arrives, Hopper’s 3 moves quickly. He is so cheerful to see his friend again. “Hopper is an active dog full of 4 . But when the volunteer comes to read, he is different. Instead of (代替) jumping around, Hopper sits 5 in front of him. He always listens carefully when the volunteer tells stories,” said Samantha Ahnen, head of JHS.
The Pawsitive Readers is an activity organized by (由……组织) JHS. Lots of students take part in it, including Nehemiah. Each time, the boy spends an hour with Hopper. Nehemiah said, “Hopper changed a lot. I think reading can help him 6 and give him a sense of safety.”
“Studies show that reading makes many animals relaxed. Hopper is a perfect 7 . At JHS, we try to do 8 we can to make the dogs comfortable,” said Samantha.
Nehemiah enjoys being part of JHS. The volunteer work not only brings him 9 , but offers Hopper comfort. He is 10 that Hopper can enjoy himself at JHS, but he hopes Hopper can find a new home soon.

I am very thankful to the cat and it always makes me think of the time I was with him.
Five years ago, when my father was 1 , I traveled a thousand miles from my home to be with him in his last days. I felt very sad and it was one of the most difficult and painful times in my life. After he passed away, I was 2 in his apartment. There were so many things to 3 . I was lonely and I hated the 4 of the apartment.
But one evening the silence was broken. I heard crying outside. I opened the door and found a little cat on the floor. He was thin and poor. I brought him inside and gave him a can of fish. He ate it and then soon fell asleep.
The next morning I asked the neighbors and learned that the cat had been left by his owner. His owner had moved away, 5 the little cat was there all alone, just like I was. As I walked back to the apartment, I tried to work out what to do with 6 . I had something else to do, so taking care of the cat seemed like the very 7 thing I could do. But as soon as I opened the door, he ran to me and lay by my feet. It was clear from that moment that he didn’t want to go anywhere. I started calling him Willis in order to remember my father’s best friend.
From then on, things grew 8 . With Willis, time seemed to pass much faster. Finally, when the time came for me to return to my own home, I had to decide 9 to do about Willis. There was no way I would leave without him.
It’s been five years since my father died. Over the years, several people have said I was so nice to 10 the cat. But I know that we saved each other. I may have given him a home but he gave me something greater.

What would you paint if someone asked you to tell him about China? For the young Mao Mofei from Chengdu Xichuan Middle School, the answer is a colourful integration (结合) of the 1 and the modern China. Mao’s 2 , Future Is Coming, was shown at the International Youth Art Invitation Exhibition in Florence, Italy.
“My picture 3 my view of what my hometown of Chengdu will be like in the future: People live in a fast-paced life with 5G and high-speed railways and are also able to enjoy a 4 time with tea and hot pot; there are skyscrapers and robots everywhere, as well as green forests, clean rivers and wild animals; 5 are sending spaceships into space, while artists are performing folk art, such as Sichuan Opera,” said Mao. “I want to show the attractions of China to the world.”
Mao started to learn painting 6 an early age. The paper and brushes have not only become her wings of imagination but also her tools to build friendships. When Mao was in the second grade, she got a 7 to visit an Indonesian school. There, she used fun pictures to tell Indonesian students the meanings of different Chinese characters. The local students really enjoyed her paintings and learned a lot about Chinese culture. She 8 made friends with her “students”.
“People around the world speak different languages, 9 art is the language that we always use and can all understand. I want to make more people understand art and 10 something with them—that’s what I love most about art.” said Mao.

Mount Qomolangma is the highest mountain in the world. It lies in the Himalayas, 1 Nepal and China. Many climbers want to reach its 2 . The first people to reach the peak (顶峰) were Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in 1953. Since then, thousands of people have tried to climb to the peak.

By 2001, he became the first blind person to 4 Qomolangma’s peak, the highest point on our planet.
Erik climbed with a team of 19 people. They wore bells so Erik could hear them. Teammates shouted such warnings as “Big rock to the left!” or “Ice falling on the right!” Erik also used special ice tools to 5 his way across the ice rock and snow on the mountain.
The climb was very hard, 6 the blowing of strong winds and the falling of ice rocks. When Erik climbed higher, the air became 7 . He needed an oxygen mask to 8 . At night, his team slept in tents with warm sleeping bags.
For two months, Erik faced many dangers. He climbed through snow and ice, sometimes even falling into cracks (裂缝). His hands got frostbite, but he kept going. Finally, after 75 days, he made it to the summit. Everyone cheered excitedly when they saw his flag 9 on the mountain.
This story shows that 10 blind people can do amazing things. Erik said, “The mountain teaches us never to give up.”
