【答案】
1.attraction 2.dirt 3.result 4.man-made 5.track 6.greenhouse 7.villagers 8.conclusion 9.sandy 10.soil
【详解】1.句意:我们村子成了一处旅游胜地。不定冠词a修饰单数名词。has become“已经变成”体现村庄发生发展变化;固定搭配tourist attraction“旅游景点”,表示从普通乡村转变为游客前来观光的场所,贴合语境。
2.句意:这些路以前只是泥土小路。此处修饰名词tracks作定语。“were just”暗含早年道路简陋;结合tracks“小路”,dirt“泥土”,契合早年土路的环境。dirt tracks意为“泥土小径”。
3.句意:辛苦劳作的成果是这片绿色森林。定冠词The与介词of之间需填名词。结合“hard work”和“a green forest”,绿色森林是辛苦劳作带来的成果,result“结果,成果”,语义完全匹配。
4.句意:塞罕坝是一项人工创造的奇迹。此处修饰名词miracle,需要形容词。Saihanba“塞罕坝”荒漠变林海是人工改造自然。man-made是复合形容词,意为“人工造就的”,形容人类创造的奇迹,符合语境。
5.句意:长长的路穿过群山。空格前The long,空格后runs through the mountains,需用名词作主语,表示“路、小道”。track意为“路、小径”,此处指一条具体的路,用单数形式track。
6.句意:他们搭建了一座温室,用来冬天种菜。不定冠词a修饰单数可数名词。结合“to grow vegetables in winter”(冬天种植蔬菜),冬季气温低,露天无法种菜,需要专门保温设施。greenhouse“温室”完美匹配“冬天种菜”的需求。
7.句意:许多村民都回到这里生活了。Many“许多”修饰可数名词的复数形式。根据“have come back to live here”(回到这里生活),此处应表示人;villager“村民”符合语境,用复数形式villagers。
8.句意:这篇文章的结论是改变是有益的。定冠词The与介词of之间需填名词。that引导的表语从句“change is good”表达的是观点,属于文本总结。 conclusion“结论,总结”,搭配text表示文章结论。
9.句意:这片区域过去遍地黄沙,十分干旱。be动词后接形容词作表语;并列连词and连接dry“干旱的”,描述过去恶劣荒漠地貌。sandy“满是沙土的”和dry并列,描绘从前沙地干旱荒芜的景象。
10.句意:他们种植灌木,把土壤固定在一起。此处需用名词作宾语。结合“They planted bushes”,种植灌木是为了固定土壤。soil“土壤”,hold the soil意为“固土”,完全契合治沙植树的核心目的。

I’ve always thought that my hometown is a small and quiet town. But now I realize that I am 7 . It is no longer the small town it used to be.
Maybe that’s what growing up is like: you don’t 8 changes to happen. But you should accept them and use those changes. In fact, I have 9 changed, too. I am not the little girl I once was. I’ve become a college student and gained (获得) a lot of 10 . So change sometimes is a good thing.

【导语】本文讲述作者离家上大学后回家乡,发现家乡发生巨大变化,自己也成长许多,感悟到应接受变化,变化有时是好事。
【详解】1.句意:我在一个我以为是小镇的地方长大。
根据“I grew up in what I…was a small town”可知,此处指过去的主观认知,thought符合语境。forgot“忘记”、sold“卖”、hoped“希望”不符合语境。
2.句意:我从未知晓家乡正在经历的变化。
根据后文“I’d never thought that my hometown would change in such a short time.”及全文围绕变化展开,可知此处指“变化”,changes符合语境。results“结果”、choices“选择”、stories“故事”不符合语境。
3.句意:这个镇子太小了,几乎没有什么可以做的。
根据前文“My hometown was a small town”以及“there wasn’t much to do”可知,小镇很小,娱乐活动少。small“小的”符合语境。big“大的”、wide“宽的”、narrow“窄的”不符合语境。
4.句意:几年后,当我回家时,我发现有很多可以做的事情。
根据后文列举的购物、看电影等新事物,可知作者“发现”了变化,found符合语境。wondered“想知道”、decided“决定”、explained“解释”不符合语境。
5.句意:现在我可以步行去一个大型的市场购物。
根据“for shopping”可知,购物应去市场,market“市场”符合,factory“工厂”、farm“农场”、school“学校”均与购物无关。
6.句意:甚至还有一家大的糖果店,售卖来自不同国家的各式糖果。
根据“a big candy store”可知,商店是“售卖”糖果的,sells“出售”符合。supports“支持”、makes“制作”、gives“给予”均不符合商店功能。
7.句意:但现在我意识到我错了。
根据前文“I’ve always thought that my hometown is a small and quiet town.”和后文“It is no longer the small town it used to be.”可知,作者之前的看法是“错的”wrong。kind“友善的”、rich“富有的”、correct“正确的”不符合语境。
8.句意:也许成长就是这样,你不会预料到变化的发生。
根据后文“But you should accept them and use those changes.”可知,转折前应表达“不期待变化”。根据“growing up”及语境可知,变化往往出乎意料,expect符合语境。advise“建议”、refuse“拒绝”、suppose“猜想”不符合语境。
9.句意:事实上,我也发生了巨大的变化。
根据后文“I am not the little girl I once was. I’ve become a college student...”可知,作者自身变化程度很大,greatly“巨大地”符合语境。usually“通常”、nearly“几乎”、luckily“幸运地”均不符合语境。
10.句意:我成为了一名大学生并获得了很多知识。
根据“become a college student”可知,大学学习带来的是“知识”knowledge。information“信息”、courage“勇气”、attention“注意力”均不符合语境。
二、选词填空
阅读下面短文,从方框中选择适当的词并用其正确形式填空。
go have good they be although cover take convenience memory
Can you imagine what life was like without smartphones or the Internet? I still remember what my hometown looked like twenty years ago. It used 1 a poor village. There was only one road to go there. The road was narrow and often 2 with mud when it rained. Most families lived in small houses with big yards. My grandfather used to tell us stories about the past while we were having dinner in the yard. And the school was very far from our village. So it took a long time for children 3 to school by bike.
My hometown is different from what it looked like before. To be honest, it’s more beautiful than before. Great changes have already 4 place here in the past twenty years.
With the help of our government, people in our hometown have built a new highway. So it’s 5 to go in and out of our hometown. As people have made more money by working in the cities or planting more economic crops, most families 6 a car or a truck so far and have built modern houses with high-tech household appliances (家用电器) like smart locks, ovens, washing machines and so on. There is a beautiful park in my hometown now. Every day, people would like to go to the park to enjoy 7 .
8 these changes bring great convenience to our lives, there are still some things that never change such as friendship and the best 9 . I still remember the sound of Grandma calling me home for dinner. East or west, home is the best. I believe my hometown will become even 10 in the future.
【答案】
1.to be 2.covered 3.to go 4.taken 5.convenient 6.have had 7.themselves 8.Although 9.memories 10.better
【导语】本文讲述了作者的家乡二十年间的巨大变迁,从过去闭塞落后的小村落,一步步发展成如今交通便利、生活富足的宜居之地,同时也表达了即便生活变化,家乡的温情与回忆始终不变,对家乡未来也充满了美好期许。
【详解】1.句意:它过去是一个贫穷的村庄。固定搭配used to do sth.表示 “过去常常 / 曾经”,后面接动词原形;a poor village为表语,前面用be动词,应填to be。
2.句意:这条路很窄,下雨时路面常常满是淤泥。空格前was,空格后with mud,固定短语be covered with意为“被……覆盖”;句子主语the road和cover是被动关系,本句时态为一般过去时,be动词was已给出,填过去分词covered。
3.句意:孩子们骑自行车上学要花费很长时间。固定短语go to school“去上学”,固定句型It takes+时间+for sb. to do sth.“某人花费多久做某事”,不定式作真正主语,因此填to go。
4.句意:过去二十年间,这里已经发生了巨大的变化。固定短语take place意为“发生”;句中“have already”提示本句为现在完成时,结构have/has+过去分词,take 的过去分词是taken。
5.句意:人们进出家乡变得很方便。空格前it’s,空格后to go in and out,本句为主系表结构,it’s后需用形容词作表语,说明“进出家乡”这件事是“方便的”;名词convenience的形容词形式是convenient。
6.句意:到目前为止,大多数家庭都拥有了小汽车或卡车,还建起了配备智能锁、烤箱、洗衣机等高科技家电的现代化房屋。so far“到目前为止”是现在完成时标志词,表示“到目前为止拥有车辆”;主语most families为复数,助动词用have;have表示“拥有”,过去分词为had,应填have had。
7.句意:每天人们都愿意去公园自得其乐。固定搭配enjoy oneself意为“玩得开心、自得其乐”;主语people对应反身代词themselves。
8.句意:尽管这些改变给我们的生活带来了极大便利,但仍有一些事物从未改变,比如情谊与最美好的回忆。前后两句存在让步转折逻辑,意为“虽然……但是……”,句首首字母大写,填Although。
9.句意:尽管这些改变给我们的生活带来了极大便利,但仍有一些事物从未改变,比如情谊与最美好的回忆。前文“never change”和后文“I still remember”提示此处指过去的美好“回忆”,此处表各类回忆,用复数形式memories。
10.句意:我相信我的家乡未来会变得更好。even用于修饰形容词/副词比较级,前文描述家乡已发生巨变,此处展望未来会“更好”;good的比较级是better,even better意为“更好”。
三、短文填空

【答案】1.since 2.have 3.but 4.through 5.to
【导语】本文主要讲述了中国自改革开放以来的发展变化,特别是在北京的变化。
【详解】
1.句意:改革开放以来,中国发展迅速。根据“China has developed rapidly...”可知,时态是现在完成时,结合句意,应是自从改革开放以来,since“自从”,符合语境,故填since。
2.句意:人们的生活条件有了很大的改善。此处是强调改革开放以后对人们生活的影响,所以使用现在完成时,主语是复数名词,助动词用have。故填have。
3.句意:孩子们不仅可以在现代学校学习,还可以在互联网上学习。not only…but also…“不仅……而且……”。固定短语,故填but。
4.句意:更重要的是,沟通变得越来越容易和快捷——人们可以通过手机、传真机和互联网给别人发信息。“smartphones, fax machines and the Internet”是“people can send information to others”的方式,through“通过”,故填through。
