【导语】
这是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者去年夏天和朋友去敦煌旅行,重点游览鸣沙山月牙泉景区的经历,展现了自然的神奇与历史的魅力,表达了对这片土地的喜爱。
【小题 1】句意:我最喜欢的部分之一就是游览鸣沙山月牙泉景区。根据上文 “旅行经历” 的语境,parts “部分” 表示旅行中最喜欢的环节;ideas “想法”、roles “角色”、videos “视频” 均不符合。
【小题 2】句意:它覆盖 76.82 平方公里的面积,是国家 5A 级旅游景区。根据固定搭配,cover an area of… “覆盖…… 面积” 用于描述区域大小;suffers “遭受”、crosses “穿过”、locates “位于” 均不适用。
【小题 3】句意:山的底部全是砾石,但山顶的沙子很细。根据后文出现 on top “在顶部”,形成上下对比,可知此处指 bottom “底部”;name “名字”、design “设计”、top “顶部” 逻辑不符。
【小题 4】句意:但山顶的沙子很细,有五种颜色 —— 红、黄、绿、黑、白。根据空后列举了红、黄、绿、黑、白,可知讲的是 colours “颜色”;sizes “尺寸”、standards “标准”、forms “形式” 无关。
【小题 5】句意:最令人惊叹的是沙子会 “唱歌”。根据常识与语境,沙子会发出声音是奇特现象,amazing “令人惊叹的” 符合;difficult “困难的”、important “重要的”、reasonable “合理的” 不贴切。
【小题 6】句意:这就是为什么它被称为鸣沙。根据上文沙子会 “鸣叫” 是原因,此处引出结果,That’s why… “这就是为什么” 为固定句式;when “当… 时”、what “什么”、where “哪里” 逻辑不符。
【小题 7】句意:许多游客,包括我,都穿上传统服饰在那里拍了美照。根据文章以第一人称叙述,including 后接宾格 me “我”;her “她”、it “它”、them “他们” 人称错误。
【小题 8】句意:后来,我们参观了月牙泉,沙漠里的一个小水潭。根据上文 Crescent Spring “月牙泉” 是泉水,对应 pool “水潭”;factory “工厂”、theatre “剧院”、camp “营地” 不符合事物属性。
【小题 9】句意:尽管它在沙漠里,但已经流淌了数千年。根据前后句为转折逻辑,Although “尽管” 引导让步状语从句;If “如果”、Because “因为”、But “但是” 不可置于句首引导从句。
【小题 10】句意:我对它充满了好奇。它就像沙漠里隐藏的宝藏。根据上文沙漠中泉水千年不干,十分神奇,curious “好奇的” 符合作者心情;mad “疯狂的”、positive “积极的”、disappointed “失望的” 不符。
【小题 11】句意:夜幕降临,一场音乐会开始了。游客们聚在一起坐在沙地上。根据后文提到 music “音乐” 和 sang along “一起唱歌”,可知是 concert “音乐会”;meeting “会议”、match “比赛”、study “学习” 无关。
【小题 12】句意:一些人打开手机手电筒,欣赏美丽的夜晚。根据搭配,turned on “打开” 用于电器设备;cared about “关心”、looked at “看”、put on “穿上” 均不适用。
【小题 13】句意:鸣沙山月牙泉景区不只是一个玩乐的地方。根据下文出现 also “也” 表示递进,not just “不只是” 符合结构;alone “独自”、even “甚至”、already “已经” 不合适。
【小题 14】句意:它也是一个自然变得神奇、历史变得鲜活的地方。根据固定短语,come alive “变得鲜活、生动” 用于形容历史生动起来;late “晚的”、fast “快的”、true “真实的” 不搭配。
【小题 15】句意:如果你有机会去敦煌,不要错过这个地方。根据整篇文章作者在推荐景点,语气为建议,don’t miss “不要错过” 符合;choose “选择”、fail “失败”、risk “冒险” 不合适。

Bringing nature into daily life can help people learn to cherish the natural world more. You can do this in many ways. You can garden. You can hike. You can just sit under a tree. Even small things work. You can grow plants at home. You can watch birds from a window. These little acts help us feel more connected to the environment.
