There is a small thing we use every day. We usually put 1 in the bathroom. If we don’t use it, we might have tooth problems. Can you guess what it is? Yes, it’s the toothbrush. But do you know 2 about its history?
Before toothbrushes appeared, the ancient Chinese people 3 their teeth with some small tree branches (树枝). About 800 years ago, people made a kind of toothbrushes 4 pig hair and bamboo. It might be the world’s earliest form of toothbrushes. As time went by, the form (样式) of toothbrushes 5 . For example, people didn’t use pig hair to make toothbrushes 6 it was too hard. They began to use horse-tail hair which was much softer. Imagine that you travel back to hundreds of years ago and brush your teeth 7 . It sounds fantastic, doesn’t it?
Around the 15th century, the Chinese toothbrush found its way into Europe. It became 8 among local people soon. The 9 of toothbrushes was not as famous as that of paper-making, but it was very useful in daily life. Today we get into the good 10 of brushing teeth. We should thank the ancient Chinese for it.

【导语】本文介绍牙刷的发展历史,讲述古人洁牙方式、牙刷材质演变,以及牙刷传入欧洲的历程,体现其在日常生活中的重要价值。
1.句意:我们通常把它放在浴室里。
此处指代前文提到的“a small thing”,是单数物品,且作动词put的宾语,要用人称代词宾格it。him指代男性,us指代复数的人,them指代复数事物,均不符合指代单数物品的语法要求。
2.句意:不过你对它的历史有什么了解吗?
“But do you know ... about its history?”表明,此处是疑问句,anything常用于疑问句中,意为“任何事物、任何信息”,是疑问句中询问相关情况的常规用法,契合“询问对方是否了解牙刷历史”的语境。something多用于肯定句;nothing表否定,与句意相悖;someone指代人,均不符合句子用法。
3.句意:在牙刷出现之前,古代中国人用细小的树枝清洁牙齿。
“Chinese people... their teeth with some small tree branches”表明,是用细小的树枝清洁牙齿,clean one’s teeth意为“清洁牙齿”,符合古人用树枝刷牙的生活场景。broke(打碎)、found(找到)、helped(帮助)均无法和teeth搭配表达“清洁牙齿”的含义。
4.句意:大约800年前,人们用猪鬃和竹子制作出了一种牙刷。
介词with可表示 “用(某种材料、工具)”,make sth. with sth.即“用某物制作某物”,符合以猪鬃、竹子为原料制作牙刷的语境。to、on、at 均不能表示“使用材料”的含义。
5.句意:随着时间推移,牙刷的形制发生了变化。
后文举例说明人们不再使用猪鬃,改用更柔软的马尾毛,说明牙刷的样式、材质都发生了改变,changed意为“改变、变化”,契合文意。lost(丢失)、helped(帮助)、made(制作)均不能体现牙刷形制的演变过程。
6.句意:比如,人们不再用猪鬃制作牙刷,因为它质地太硬。
前半句“不再使用猪鬃”是结果,后半句“质地太硬”是原因,前后为因果关系,because意为“因为”,用于引出原因。so表结果,or表选择,but表转折,均不符合句子的逻辑关系。
7.句意:想象一下,你穿越回几百年前,舒舒服服地刷牙。听起来很奇妙,不是吗?
前文提到人们改用更柔软的马尾毛替代坚硬的猪鬃,牙刷使用感大幅提升,因此用古代改良后的牙刷刷牙可以拥有舒适的体验,comfortably意为“舒适地”,和后文“fantastic”的赞叹感受呼应。badly(糟糕地)、hardly(几乎不)带有负面含义,和积极的感受不符;slowly(缓慢地)无法体现牙刷材质改良带来的使用体验。
8.句意:它很快就在当地人中流行开来。
前文提到中国牙刷传入欧洲,后文点明它在日常生活中十分实用,说明它受到了人们的欢迎,popular意为“流行的、受欢迎的”,符合语境。hard(坚硬的)、boring(无聊的)、rich(富有的)均不能描述物品的流行程度。
9.句意:牙刷这项发明虽不如造纸术的名气大,却在日常生活中非常实用。
全文围绕牙刷的发明与发展展开,invention意为“发明”,和后文的paper-making(造纸术,同样是一项发明)对应。pollution(污染)、tradition(传统)、solution(解决方案)均不符合牙刷的事物属性。
10.句意:如今我们养成了刷牙的好习惯。
“we get into the good...of brushing teeth.”表明,是养成了刷牙的好习惯,get into the habit of意为“养成……的习惯”,日常刷牙是一种生活习惯,符合文意。task(任务)、result(结果)、history(历史)均不构成该固定搭配。

此处表达伴随树木生长的同步过程,As“随着”引导时间状语从句符合语境;If“如果”;Until“直到”;Before“在……之前”均不符合语境。
7.句意:结果,它的树叶和枝条就会柔和地发光。
前文树木携带发光基因生长,后文是对应的结果,As a result“因此,结果”符合语境;By accident“偶然”;In public“公开地”;From time to time“时不时”均不符合语境。
8.句意:这项发明能带来许多好的改变。
后文列举节能、净化空气、美化城市等多方面向好转变,changes“改变”符合语境;problems“难题”;challenges“挑战”;habits“习惯”均不符合语境。

2.句意:最近,一个大学项目帮助两名年轻女性针对一个难题想出了一个很棒的点子。
固定搭配come up with意为“想出(主意、办法)”,符合“想出好点子”的搭配和语境。run out of“用完,耗尽”、look forward to“期待”、keep away from“远离”都无法和“a great idea”搭配,语义不通。
3.句意:谁愿意承担这个项目?
前文点明这是大学的项目任务,老师布置了解决能源问题的任务,应填project“项目”。article“文章”、topic“话题”、discussion“讨论”都不符合“需要学生承接完成的任务”这一语义。

5.句意:他们发现这些国家的孩子都喜欢做运动,尤其是足球。
后半句用“especially soccer”举例,说明此处总说孩子们喜欢运动,应填sports。soccer“足球”和后文“especially soccer”语义重复,energy“能源”、source“来源”语义完全不通。
6.句意:在注意到这个观察结果之后,Julia和Jessica决定研发一种和足球相关的新型能源。
前文提到他们调研时发现了孩子爱运动、爱踢足球这个现象,应填noticing“注意到”。planning“计划”、doubting“怀疑”、causing“导致”都不符合语义。
7.句意:这花费了他们很长时间,但最终结果证明大获成功。
前文提到研发花了六个月时间,经历漫长过程后最终成功,应填finally。hardly“几乎不”语义相反,easily“容易地”、quickly“快速地”和前文“It took them a long time”矛盾,排除。

The company added that it was almost impossible for a robot to start a conversation and “kidnap” other robots by 9 .
The factory behind the small robot later revealed that the whole 10 was planned as a test. It had contacted the Shanghai company and asked 11 the company was willing to allow its robots to be “kidnapped”. The company 12 to let the small robot go into the showroom.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述小机器人“绑架”大机器人的视频走红网络,引发关注与恐惧,后证实为工厂策划的测试事件。
1.句意:“我从不下班,”其中一个大型机器人回答。
“ ‘I never get off work’ ”引用了说话的内容,应是“回答”,replies“回答”,符合对话语境。repeats“重复”;repairs“修理”;refuses“拒绝”,均不符合。
2.句意:所以你不用回家?
后文提到“I don’t have a home”(我没有家),可知此处小机器人问“你不回家吗”,go home“回家”与之呼应。school“学校”;work“工作”;hospital“医院”,与“home”无关。
3.句意:“那就跟我回家吧,”小机器人在带路走出展厅之前说道。
“the small robot says...leading the way out of the showroom.”表明,逻辑上是先邀请再带路,before“在……之前”符合顺序,before leading the way“在带路之前”。after“在……之后”;since“自从”;unless“除非”,不符合逻辑。
4.句意:当两个大机器人开始跟随小机器人时,它开始说“回家”,展厅里的其他10个机器人也跟着说。
下文提到“it starts saying ‘Go home’, and the other 10 robots in the showroom also follow it.”可知,小机器人在前面带路,两个大机器人开始跟着它,following“跟随”符合。believing“相信”;inviting“邀请”;leading“带领”,动作不符。
5.句意:视频发布后在网上获得了相当多的关注。
“The interesting scene was recorded and the video got quite a lot of...”表明,视频发到网上后获得了大量关注,get attention“获得关注”符合。heat“热度”;control“控制”;truth“真相”,搭配不当。
6.句意:有趣变成了一种恐惧感。
“While many people first found it amusing, the amusement...to a sense of terror (恐惧).”表明,人们一开始觉得有趣,之后这种有趣转变成了恐惧,turn to“转变为”符合。offered“提供”;considered“考虑”;left“离开”,语意不通。
7.句意:证实这是真的。
下文“that the ‘kidnapping’ was true”表明,杭州工厂发言人也明确说“绑架”是真实的,此处指双方确认这件事是真实的, true“真实的”,形容客观上的真假;right“正确的”,形容做法、行为是否合乎标准 ;correct“正确的”,用来形容答案;false“假的”,含义不符。
8.句意:2024年11月11日,杭州一家机器人工厂的发言人说小机器人是其型号之一(Erbai),并且“绑架”是真的。
“a spokesperson for a Hangzhou robot factory said that the small robot in the video was one of its models (Erbai)...that the “kidnapping” was true.”表明,小机器人是我厂的型号、“绑架”事件是真的,两者是并列关系,用and连接;but“但是”;or“或者”;so“所以”,逻辑关系错误。
9.句意:他还说更多细节将在稍后透露。
“that more...would be revealed (透露)”表明,发言人说之后会透漏更多这个事件的细节,detail表示“细节”,“透露细节”符合语境,details“细节”符合;reasons“理由”;methods“方法”;choices“选择”,不合逻辑。
10.句意:小机器人不知何故能够进入其机器人的内部操作协议。
前文提到“the small robot”,进入上海公司机器人操作协议的就是那个发起邀请的小机器人,small“小的”符合;large“大的”;young“年轻的”;old“老的”,不符合。
11.句意:机器人自己主动发起对话并“绑架”其他机器人几乎是不可能的。
“that it was almost impossible for a robot to start a conversation and “kidnap” other robots by”表明,此处主语是“a robot”,用it指代,反身代词为itself“它自己”,by itself独自地、自动地,符合;himself“他自己”;herself“她自己”;themselves“他们自己”,与主语不符。
12.句意:该工厂后来透露,整个场景是作为测试策划的。
“The interesting scene was recorded...”和前文表明,此处指整个“机器人拐走其他机器人”的场景。scene“场景”符合;design“设计”;memory“记忆”;report“报告”,指代不明。
13.句意:它联系了上海公司,问是否该公司愿意让它的机器人被“绑架”。
“asked...the company was willing to allow its robots to be ‘kidnapped’ ”表明,此处引导宾语从句,表示是否,用if“是否”;why“为什么”;how“如何”;what“什么”,语意不通。
14.句意:该公司同意让小机器人进入展厅。
“the company was willing to allow its robots to be ‘kidnapped’ ”和 “The company...to let the small robot go into the showroom”表明,公司同意让小机器人进入展厅,agree to do sth.“同意做某事”,agreed“同意”符合语境;made“使”;hoped“希望”;waited“等待”,搭配不当。
15.句意:从那时起,一切都是安排好的。
“was staged (组织)”强调整个过程都是安排好的,用everything“一切”,符合语境;something“某事”;anything“任何事”;nothing“没什么”,语境不符。

Have you ever wondered if we could light up our cities without using so much electricity? Scientists are working on a very cool invention: glowing (发光的) trees. 1 walking home at night, and the street is lit by the soft, natural light from trees instead of strong electric lamps. This sounds like an idea from a movie, but it could be 2 one day.
So, 3 is a tree made to glow? The secret comes from 4 . Some animals, like jellyfish in the ocean, can 5 their own light. They have a special part, called a gene (基因), that makes them glow. Scientists can take this glowing gene. Then, with special methods, the gene is put into a young tree or its seed. 6 the tree grows up, it starts to use this new gene. 7 , its leaves and branches begin to glow softly.
This invention could bring many good 8 . It would save a lot of energy and help keep our air clean. Our cities would become more beautiful and better for the environment.
