范文
I have many stories in my growth, but the story of learning to ride a bike is the most unforgettable one for me. It happened when I was twelve years old.
At first, I fell down many times and wanted to give up. But my dad encouraged me to keep trying and taught me how to keep balance. After a week of practice, I finally could ride the bike by myself.
This experience taught me that nothing is impossible if I don’t give up. Now I know that facing difficulties bravely is the key to growing up.
在我的成长过程中有很多故事,但学骑自行车的故事是我最难忘的一个。这件事发生在我十二岁的时候。
一开始,我摔了很多次,想要放弃。但爸爸鼓励我继续尝试,还教我怎么保持平衡。经过一周的练习,我终于能自己骑自行车了。
这次经历让我明白,只要不放弃,没有什么是不可能的。现在我知道,勇敢面对困难是成长的关键。
一.单句语法填空
1.All the fans were ________ (disappoint) because the singer didn’t appear on the stage.
【答案】disappointed
【详解】句意:所有粉丝都很失望,因为那位歌手没有登台。句子中were是系动词,后面需要接形容词作表语,说明主语“All the fans(所有粉丝)”的感受,动词disappoint的形容词形式中,disappointed表示“感到失望的”,用来描述人的主观感受,此处主语是粉丝(人),所以用disappointed。
2.You’d better not sit in front of the computer for too long without ________ (move).
【答案】moving
【详解】句意:你最好不要长时间坐在电脑前一动不动。此处位于介词“without”之后,需用动名词形式。“move”是动词,其动名词形式是“moving”。应填moving。
3.Nothing can prevent us from ________ (move) forward.
【答案】moving
【详解】句意:没有什么能阻止我们前进。“prevent sb. from doing sth.”是固定搭配,意为“阻止某人做某事”,from是介词,后面接动名词作宾语。“move”的动名词形式是“moving”。
4.He was so ________ that he left his notebook in the library. (care)
【答案】careless
【详解】句意:他如此粗心,以至于把笔记本落在了图书馆里。 根据“left his notebook in the library”并结合提示词可知,此处是粗心的表现,此处需要应用“粗心的”careless,故填careless。
5.When I appeared before him, he looked ________. (surprise)
【答案】surprised
【详解】句意:当我出现在他面前时,他看起来很惊讶。根据“When I appeared before him, he looked...”的句子结构,感官动词look后需要接形容词作表语,此句中主语是he,surprise是动词,表达“他感到惊讶”,用surprised。故填surprised。
二.用括号内所给单词的适当形式填空
1.While we ________(sing) an English song,some visitors came to our class.
2.I am sorry I didn't answer your phone because I ________(play) the piano at that time.
3.—Why didn't you pick up my phone at seven o'clock last night?

What do you do when you have trouble? Do you often have 1 to do with? When facing problems and worries, some people believe the 2 thing is to do nothing. Because if we run away from them, we 3 more problems. Then how to deal with our problems?
It is useful 4 someone you trust to talk to. Don’t keep your worries to yourself. 5 we talk to others, we’ll certainly (无疑地) become less worried. The person doesn’t need to be 6 expert. Your friends or parents will be OK. They are always there to help 7 . We often say that sharing a problem is like cutting it in half. The more you talk to others, the 8 worries you will have.
Maybe you didn’t solve your problems like this 9 the past. But now, just remember: unless we talk to someone, we’ll feel worse. So are you 10 to talk to others when you have problems after learning this passage?
1.A.anything difficult B.difficult anything C.nothing difficult D.difficult nothing
2.A.bad B.worse C.worst D.badly
3.A.have B.has C.had D.will have
4.A.to pass B.pass C.to find D.find

10.A.go B.went C.goes D.going
【答案】1.A 2.C 3.D 4.C 5.D 6.B 7.B 8.A 9.C 10.D
【导语】本文主要讲了人们面对烦恼与问题时不应逃避,而应向信任的人倾诉,通过分享来缓解焦虑、解决问题。
1.句意:你经常有困难的事要处理吗?
anything difficult困难的事;difficult anything错误表达;nothing difficult没什么困难的事;difficult nothing错误表达。根据“Do you often have…to do with”可知,此处是询问是否有棘手的事情需要处理,本句为一般疑问句,需用anything表示“某事”,形容词修饰不定代词必须后置。故选A。
2.句意:面对问题和烦恼时,有些人认为最糟糕的做法就是什么都不做。
bad坏的;worse更坏的;worst最坏的;badly糟糕地。根据“…the…thing is to do nothing”可知,定冠词the后要接形容词最高级形式。故选C。
3.句意:因为如果我们逃避它们,我们会有更多问题。
have有;has有;had有;will have将会有。根据“…if we run away from them, we…”可知,if引导条件状语从句,遵循“主将从现”规则,主句需用一般将来时。故选D。
4.句意:找到一个你信任的人去倾诉是有用的。
to pass传递;pass传递;to find找到;find找到。根据“It is useful…someone you trust to talk to”可知,本句为“It’s + 形容词+to do sth.”的固定句型,it作形式主语,动词不定式为真正主语;结合语义,倾诉的前提是找到合适的对象,“传递”与语境不匹配。故选C。
5.句意:如果我们和别人交谈,就肯定会没那么焦虑。
Though尽管;Until直到;But但是;If如果。根据“…we talk to others, we’ll certainly become less worried”可知,前一分句是后一分句成立的条件,需用if引导条件状语从句。故选D。
6.句意:这个人不必是一位专家。
a一个;an一个;the这/那;/不填。根据“The person doesn’t need to be…expert”可知,此处是泛指一位专家,expert以元音音素开头,所以用不定冠词an。故选B。
7.句意:他们总会在那里帮助你。
your你的;you你;yours你的(东西);yourself你自己。根据“They are always there to help…”可知,help为及物动词,其后需接人称代词宾格作宾语。故选B。
8.句意:你和别人说得越多,你的烦恼就会越少。
fewer更少的;few少的;less更少的;little少的。根据“The more you talk to others, the…worries you will have”可知,本句为“the+比较级,the+比较级”结构,worries为可数名词复数,要用fewer修饰可数名词复数。故选A。
9.句意:或许过去你没有这样解决过问题。
on在……上;at在(时刻/地点);in在……里面;with和。根据“Maybe you didn’t solve your problems like this…the past”可知,此处考查固定搭配in the past,表示“在过去”,用于一般过去时的时间状语。故选C。
10.句意:所以学完这篇文章后,当你有问题时,你打算去和别人交谈吗?
go去;went去;goes去;going将要。根据“…are you…to talk to others when you have problems after learning this passage”可知,此处考查固定结构be going to,表示“打算,将要做某事”。故选D。
B

【导语】本文主要讲述了作者与父亲之间因观点差异而产生矛盾,但在作者身患重病时,父亲无私捐献肾脏挽救其生命,最终两人和解并共同组建乐队的故事。
1.句意:我小时候就对学习音乐产生了兴趣。
learn动词原形;learned过去式/过去分词;learning动名词/现在分词;to learn动词不定式。“be interested in doing sth.”表示“对做某事感兴趣”,其中“in”为介词,后接动名词作宾语。故选C。
2.句意:我父亲很兴奋,在我大约八岁时给我买了一把吉他。
a不定冠词,用于辅音音素开头的单词前;an不定冠词,用于元音音素开头的单词前;the定冠词,表示特指;/零冠词。空后“guitar”为可数名词单数,首次提及,表示泛指“一把吉他”,且“guitar”是以辅音音素开头的单词,需用不定冠词“a”。故选A。
3.句意:但直到我十几岁时才喜欢它。

She said, “Dear, it’s fine. You’re such a helpful girl.” Her kind 2 (word) warmed my heart.
When I got home, my grandma started telling me 3 her garden again—how beautifully her roses were blooming (开花). I was busy 4 (text) friends, so I said, “Grandma, can you stop talking about flowers? I’m 5 (boring)!” She stopped talking, her eyes losing their brightness. I didn’t notice and kept communicating with my friends.
That night, Mum sat by my bed. “You 6 (be) so kind to the stranger (陌生人), but to Grandma—you were cold. Did you see the sadness in her eyes? She planted those roses just for you because once you said you loved them. Look, she 7 (leave) a rose on your desk,” said Mum.
8 (tear) filled my eyes. I rushed to Grandma’s room and said, “Grandma, I’m sorry. Thank you for the roses!”
She said, “Dear, they’re as lovely 9 you. I thought you’d like to hear about their beauty (美丽).”
I hugged her tight (紧紧地抱住). “I love your roses, and I love listening to you,” I said.
Grandma said, “I will always love you.” If we show kindness to strangers, we should treat the ones who love us 10 (good). Love needs patience (耐心), always.
【答案】1.dropped 2.words 3.about 4.texting 5.bored 6.were 7.left/has left 8.Tears 9.as 10.better
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,通过对比“我”对陌生人的善意与对奶奶的冷漠,以及后来的醒悟,揭示了我们应该以最大的耐心和关爱对待亲人,因为最珍贵的爱往往来自身边。
1.句意:她的东西掉得满地都是。根据前文“bumped into”“cried”等过去式可知,此处描述过去发生的事情,需用一般过去时,“drop”的过去式为“dropped”,故填dropped。
2.句意:她友善的话语温暖了我的心。根据“Dear, it’s fine. You’re such a helpful girl.”,可知“word”表示“话语”时常用复数形式,“word”的复数为“words”,故填words。

7.句意:看,她在你桌上留了一朵玫瑰。根据“a rose on your desk”可知,此处描述过去的动作,“leave”的过去式为“left”;此处也可以表示过去动作对现在造成影响,用现在完成时,“leave”的过去分词为“left”,主语“she”为第三人称单数,用“has left”。故填left/has left。

根据内容填写所缺单词或用所给单词的正确形式填空,使语篇意思完整。
Our feelings influence almost every decision we make. Instead 1 living a boring life, positive feelings can help us a lot. The pity is that sometimes we become victims (受害者) of feelings. In one of my 2 (late) books, I compare people’s ability to the controls (控制键) on a media player. Just like the controls can help you enjoy wonderful songs, these methods will be 3 (choice) for you to manage feelings successfully.
1. Pause
Take time to stop and think twice before you speak or act. Of course, you may feel sorry if you like doing something without 4 (think) twice—like sending 5 angry email or posting something bad on social media. If you feel your feelings getting out of control, pause. If possible, go for a short walk. Once you’ve calmed down, decide how you want to move forward.
2. Volume control (音量控制)
Have you ever noticed that when 6 (speak) with someone, your style or tone is a mirror of the other person’s? If you stay calm or quiet, they’ll follow you. Shout or scream, and they’ll do just like you. If a 7 (discuss) starts to become worse, try to change it by softening your tone or lowering your voice.
3. Record
If you want to learn more about another 8 (person) thoughts, recording, a way of careful listening, may help. You don’t need to reply at once. Instead, you’re listening to understand. Through listening 9 (careful), it can help you discover misunderstandings you don’t know. Don’t judge (评价) or offer advice 10 you know more about others and the topic.
【答案】1.of 2.latest 3.choices 4.thinking 5.an 6.speaking 7.discussion 8.person’s 9.carefully 10.before/until
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲了积极情绪对人们的帮助,指出人们有时会受情绪影响,并以媒体播放器控制键作比,提出暂停、音量控制、记录三种帮助人们成功管理情绪的方法。
【详解】1.句意:与其过着无聊的生活,积极的情绪能给我们很多帮助。根据“positive feelings can help us a lot”可知,积极情绪有益,所以不是过无聊的生活,instead of“代替;而不是”,符合语境,故填of。
2.句意:在我的一本最新著作中,我将人们(管理情绪)的能力比作媒体播放器上的控制键。根据“In one of my...books”可知,此处需要形容词修饰名词,“late”的形容词形式“latest”表示“最新的”符合语境,故填latest。
3.句意:就像控制键能帮你欣赏美妙的歌曲一样,这些方法将是你成功管理情绪的选择。根据“Just like the controls can help you enjoy wonderful songs, these methods will be...for you to manage feelings successfully”可知,此处将管理情绪的方法与媒体播放器的控制键类比,指这些方法是管理情绪的可行方式。“be”后接名词作表语,“choice”是可数名词,结合“these methods”可知应用复数形式 “choices”,符合语境。故填choices。
4.句意:当然,如果你喜欢做事不三思而后行——比如发一封愤怒的邮件或者在社交媒体上发布不好的内容,你可能会感到后悔。根据“you may feel sorry if you like doing something without...”可知,介词后接动词-ing形式,动词“think”的-ing形式为“thinking”,故填thinking。
5.句意:当然,如果你喜欢做事不三思而后行——比如发一封愤怒的邮件或者在社交媒体上发布不好的内容,你可能会感到后悔。根据“...angry email or posting something bad on social media.”可知,此处表示“一封愤怒的邮件”,是可数名词单数,且“angry”是以元音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词“an”修饰,故填an。
6.句意:你有没有注意到,当和别人交谈时,你的说话风格或语气会受到对方的影响?根据“ Have you ever noticed that when...”可知,此处是when引导的时间状语从句,从句主语和主句主语一致,且从句含有“be动词”,可省略主语和be动词,故填speaking。
7.句意:如果一场讨论开始变得激烈,试着通过缓和语气或降低音量来改变局面。根据“If a...starts to become worse”可知,此处需要可数名词单数,“discuss”的名词形式为“discussion”,故填discussion。
8.句意:如果你想更多地了解另一个人的想法,记录,一种认真倾听的方式可能会有帮助。根据“If you want to learn more about another...thoughts”可知,此处需要名词所有格修饰名词,“another person”表示“另一个人”,其所有格形式为“person’s”,故填person’s。
9.句意:通过认真倾听,这能帮助你发现你不知道的误解。根据“Through listening...”可知,此处需要副词修饰动词,“careful”的副词形式为“carefully”,故填carefully。
10.句意:在你更了解他人和相关话题之前,不要急于评价或提供建议。根据“Don’t judge (评价) or offer advice”和“you know more about others and the topic”可知,两句存在时间先后关系,即“在了解之前不评价”,“before”表示“在……之前”,符合语境;此题也可用until,“Don’t do sth. until...” 是英语中常用的句式,意为 “直到……才做某事”,“until” 在此处引导时间状语从句,且符合 “先否定动作,后给出动作发生的条件” 的语境。故填before/until。

One evening, on my way home, I bumped into an old woman carrying a lot of things. Her things 1 (drop) everywhere. “Oh no, I’m so sorry.” I cried, hurrying to pick them up.

Our feelings influence almost every decision we make. Instead 1 living a boring life, positive feelings can help us a lot. The pity is that sometimes we become victims (受害者) of feelings. In one of my 2 (late) books, I compare people’s ability to the controls (控制键) on a media player. Just like the controls can help you enjoy wonderful songs, these methods will be 3 (choice) for you to manage feelings successfully.
1. Pause
Take time to stop and think twice before you speak or act. Of course, you may feel sorry if you like doing something without 4 (think) twice—like sending 5 angry email or posting something bad on social media. If you feel your feelings getting out of control, pause. If possible, go for a short walk. Once you’ve calmed down, decide how you want to move forward.
2. Volume control (音量控制)
Have you ever noticed that when 6 (speak) with someone, your style or tone is a mirror of the other person’s? If you stay calm or quiet, they’ll follow you. Shout or scream, and they’ll do just like you. If a 7 (discuss) starts to become worse, try to change it by softening your tone or lowering your voice.
3. Record
If you want to learn more about another 8 (person) thoughts, recording, a way of careful listening, may help. You don’t need to reply at once. Instead, you’re listening to understand. Through listening 9 (careful), it can help you discover misunderstandings you don’t know. Don’t judge (评价) or offer advice 10 you know more about others and the topic.

Many people are always feeling sad. They always think they are inferior (比不上……的) to others. For example, in daily life, some 1 don’t believe in themselves, just because they often fail school’s exams though they work 2 . Besides, some adults are not 3 because they seldom satisfy (使满意) their bosses—no matter how hard they try to finish their tasks. But weaknesses (缺点) are just a small part of our life. Why not spend some time 4 about other parts?
What should we do? We should pay attention to strong points instead of weaknesses. After all, weaknesses shouldn’t take up a 5 part of our life. We should learn to find our advantages (优点). We have something valuable that others don’t have, such as a happy 6 , good friends. When we feel sad, we should 7 some time thinking about what we have done well. Then we will find we are better than we imagined before. In a word, we will change a lot if we can find 8 advantages.
