A. teenagers; teenage B. teenage; teenagers C. teenagers; teenagers" D. teenage; teenage 【答案】A 【解析】第一空for后接名词teenagers「青少年」作宾语，第二空teenage作形容词修饰life「青少年生活」。B、D项teenage是形容词不能作for的宾语；C项teenagers"所有格虽正确但不符合语境(teenage life是固定表达)。 （2）单词填空 用括号中所给单词的适当形式填空。 This magazine is popular among ______ (teenage). It mainly talks about problems that ______ (teenage) often face, such as stress from school. 【答案】teenagers; teenagers 【解析】第一空among后接名词复数teenagers「青少年」，第二空作定语从句主语也需名词teenagers。考查teenage(adj.)与teenager(n.)的派生转换。 2. drive /draɪv/ （1）首字母填空 根据句意及首字母提示，在空白处填入适当的单词。 My father d______ me to school every morning.

Lily最近一直心情不好。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 in a bad mood（心情不好）。mood 指"情绪、心情"，in a bad/good mood 是固定搭配。mind 指"头脑、思维"；feeling 指"感觉"，不说 in a bad feeling；spirit 需要 in low/high spirits（用复数形式）。句意：Lily 最近一直心情不好。 2. 她经常因为小事跟父母争吵，比如什么时候做作业、可以用多久手机。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 argue with sb about sth（与某人争论某事）。argue with 表示"与……争吵"，后接 about 表示争论的内容，符合"因小事与父母争吵"的语境。talk with（与……交谈）语气过于温和，与后文 argument 矛盾；discuss 是及物动词，直接接宾语，不接 with about；agree with（同意）不合语境。句意：她经常因为小事和父母争吵。 3. 每次争吵之后，她都感觉很糟，低落的很低落的。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 be in low spirits（情绪低落）。in low spirits 是固定短语，意为"心情低落"，与上文的"feels terrible"呼应。in high spirits 意为"情绪高涨"，与语境相反；good 和 bad 不与 spirits 搭配。句意：每次争吵后，她都感觉很糟糕，情绪低落。 4. 她知道她应该学会与父母沟通而不是争吵，但当她心烦意乱时，很难保持冷静。考点/解析：考查辨析 communicate vs talk。communicate with sb 强调"有效沟通、交流思想和情感"，侧重双向理解和表达，与后文 instead of arguing（而不是争吵）形成鲜明对比，突出"理性交流"的含义。talk with sb 仅指"与某人说话"，语气较随意，不强调沟通效果。discuss 是及物动词，需接宾语（discuss sth with sb），不能单独说 discuss with。tell sb 意为"告诉某人"，是单向行为，不接 with。句意：她知道她应该学会与父母沟通而不是争吵。 5. Lily，你愿意跟我对话吗？；考点/解析：考查固定搭配 have a dialogue with sb（与某人进行对话）。have a dialogue with sb 是固定搭配，意为"与……进行坦诚的对话"。speech（演讲）、lecture（讲座）、message（信息）均不能与 have a ___ with me 搭配表此义。句意：老师问她是否愿意和她谈谈。 Passage 3: No One Deserves to Be Bullied Tom was a quiet boy who had just moved to a new school.

(1) A. stranger B. foreigner C. guest D. newcomer (2) A. bully B. tease C. beat D. hit (3) A. mean B. bad C. wrong D. rude (4)A. uncomfortable B. unhappy C. unsure D. unfamiliar (5)A. stand up for B. stand up to C. look after D. care for 【答案】1.A 2.A 3.A 4.A 5.A 【语篇解析】本文围绕 "No One Deserves to Be Bullied" 展开，考生需把握文章主旨，结合上下文语境理解空格处所需词汇的含义、搭配与感情色彩。 1. 起初，他在这个新环境里觉得自己像个陌生人——一切和所有人对他来说都很陌生。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 feel like a stranger（感觉自己像个陌生人）。feel like a stranger 是固定表达，意为"感觉格格不入、像局外人"。foreigner 指"外国人"，强调国籍不同；guest 指"客人"；newcomer 指"新来者"，仅描述客观身份，不带有"陌生、不适应"的情感色彩。句意：起初，他在新环境里感觉自己像个局外人——一切和所有人对他来说都很陌生。 2. 一些高年级学生注意到他很害羞，就开始欺负他。考点/解析：考查用法 bully sb（欺凌某人）。bully 指"持续地恐吓、欺负某人"，程度较重，与后文"reported the bullying"呼应。tease 指"取笑、逗弄"，程度较轻；beat 和 hit 指身体上的打击，不符合"说坏话"的语境。句意：一些高年级学生注意到他很害羞，开始欺负他。 3. 他们说关于他衣着和体重的刻薄的话，甚至叫他"超重"和"丑八怪"他们；考点/解析：考查固定搭配 say mean things（说刻薄的话）。mean things 是固定搭配，mean 此处为形容词，意为"刻薄的、不友善的"。bad things（坏事）过于宽泛；wrong things（错事）侧重对错判断；rude things（无礼的事）虽近义，但 say mean things 是更常见的固定搭配（考点三）。句意：他们说关于他衣服和体重的刻薄话。 4. Tom对自己的外表感到非常不自在的，不想再去上学了。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 be uncomfortable with sth（对某事感到不自在）。be uncomfortable with 是固定搭配，意为"对……感到不舒服/不自在"，此处修饰对自己外貌的感受。unhappy with（对……不满）侧重情绪，不如 uncomfortable 精准；unsure with 和 unfamiliar with 均不用于描述情感。句意：Tom 对自己的外貌感到很不自在，不想再去上学了。 5. 她勇敢地维护Tom。考点/解析：考查辨析 stand up for vs stand up to。stand up for sb 意为"维护某人、为某人撑腰"，后接被保护的对象，此处"stand up for Tom"意为"为 Tom 挺身而出、维护 Tom"。stand up to sb 意为"勇敢地对抗某人"，后接对抗的对象（如 She stood up to the bullies），若选 B 则意为"对抗 Tom"，与语境完全相反。look after（照顾）和 care for（关爱）虽有正面含义，但不能体现"挺身而出、勇敢维护"的动作感。句意：她勇敢地站出来维护 Tom。 Passage 4: Too Much Screen Time Mei Mei is 15 years old. Lately, she has been spending too much time on her (1)___ phone. She checks messages, watches short videos, and plays games for hours every day. Her mother thinks she is (2)___ too much time on things that don"t really matter. "You"re wasting your youth on that screen!" her mother said one evening.

She couldn"t fall asleep before (4)___ because she kept looking at the bright screen in the dark. At school, she had trouble staying focused in class, and her midterm grades began to drop. That really got her (5)___. One evening, Mei Mei sat alone in her room and realized something had to change. She made a firm (6)___ to cut back on her screen time.

Mei Mei今年15岁。最近，她在手机上花了太多时间。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 mobile phone（手机）。mobile phone 是固定名词短语，意为"移动电话"。home phone（家庭电话）、public phone（公共电话）虽存在但不符语境；smart 不是修饰 phone 的标准搭配词。句意：Mei Mei 最近在手机上花了太多时间。 2. 她妈妈认为她在无关紧要的事情上浪费了太多时间。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 waste time on sth（在……上浪费时间）。waste time on sth 是固定搭配，意为"在某事上浪费时间"，强调时间被浪费在无价值的事情上。spending time（花费时间）是中性表达，不含有负面评价；using 和 taking 不与 time on 搭配表此义。母亲认为 Mei Mei 把时间花在无关紧要的事上，用 wasting 体现其负面判断。句意：她母亲认为她在无关紧要的事上浪费了太多时间。 3. 她觉得妈妈有点愚蠢的——毕竟，她为什么不能享受自己的空闲时间呢？；考点/解析：考查形容词 silly（愚蠢的、可笑的）。silly 此处意为"可笑的、不明事理的"，从青少年视角出发，Mei Mei 认为母亲的担忧是小题大做、不合情理。strict（严格的）侧重管束方式；mean（刻薄的）侧重恶意；unfair（不公平的）侧重公正性。后文"after all, why shouldn"t she enjoy her free time?"体现的是一种轻视、不以为然的态度，与 silly 最吻合。句意：她觉得母亲有点小题大做。 4. 她就寝时间前睡不着，因为她不停地在黑暗中盯着亮着的屏幕。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 before bedtime（就寝前）。before bedtime 是固定搭配，bedtime 是名词，意为"就寝时间"。before dinner（晚饭前）、before dark（天黑前）、before midnight（午夜前）虽语法正确，但与"看手机屏幕影响睡眠"的语境不直接相关。句意：她到睡觉前都睡不着，因为一直在黑暗中盯着亮着的屏幕。 5. 期中成绩也开始下降。这真的让她很沮丧。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 get sb down（使某人沮丧）。get sb down 是固定短语，意为"让某人心情低落"。get sb up（使某人起床）、get sb away（使某人离开）、get sb out（使某人出去）均不合语境。句意：成绩下降这件事真的让她很沮丧。 6. 她做出了一个坚定的决定：减少屏幕时间。考点/解析：考查辨析 decision vs choice vs plan。make a decision 是固定搭配（考点一），decision 侧重"经过深思熟虑后做出的坚定决定"，强调决断力和决心。a firm decision to do sth（做某事的坚定决定）是标准用法（考点三：a decision to do sth）。choice 侧重"在多个选项中进行选择"，强调择优；plan 侧重"具体的行动安排"，make a plan 后通常接 for 而非 to do；promise 侧重"承诺"，make a promise to do 意为"承诺做某事"，语义侧重于对别人的许诺。此处"她做出了减少屏幕时间的坚定决定"，decision 最贴切。句意：她做出了一个减少屏幕时间的坚定决定。 7. 起初并不容易，但她不想以后后悔自己的决定。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 regret one"s decision（后悔某人的决定）。regret 此处为动词，意为"后悔、遗憾"，regret one"s decision 是固定搭配（考点四）。refuse（拒绝）、forget（忘记）不合语境；change her decision（改变决定）与后文"she stuck to her plan"矛盾。句意：她不想日后后悔自己的决定。 Passage 5: Never Give Up When Emma was younger, she was often called the "ugly duckling" of her class. She was slightly (1)___ and wore thick glasses. Some classmates were mean to her, and she felt like a stranger among her peers. The situation really got her down, and she was often in low spirits.

Looking back, she smiled and said, "The tightest and most painful moments in life are often the ones that teach us the most valuable lessons."

Emma曾经听说过许多成功人士年轻时也曾面临类似的问题，这给了她希望。考点/解析：考查辨析 hear of vs hear about vs hear from。hear of sb 意为"听说过某人、知道某人的存在"，强调"知道有这个人"，后接"many successful people"表示"听说过许多成功人士"，符合语境。hear about 意为"听到关于……的详情/消息"，侧重了解具体事迹而非仅仅知道存在；hear from 意为"收到……的来信/消息"，后接人表示收到对方联系，不符语境；heard alone 不构成固定搭配。句意：Emma 听说过许多成功人士在年轻时也面临过类似的问题，这给了她希望。 5. 遇到不认识的词，她就查字典，然后记在本子上。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 look up a word in a dictionary（在字典中查单词）。look up sth in a dictionary 是固定搭配（考点一），dictionary 意为"字典"。book（书）、magazine（杂志）、novel（小说）中不能"look up a word"。句意：遇到不认识的词，她就查字典并记在笔记本上。 6. 凭借迅速的的进步，她很快成为班上最优秀的学生之一。考点/解析：考查辨析 rapid vs fast vs quick。rapid progress（快速进步）是固定搭配（考点五），rapid 侧重"速度快且持续"，常修饰抽象名词如 changes/growth/progress，带有"迅猛、显著"的含义。fast 侧重"运动速度快"，多修饰具体动作（fast car, fast runner），与 progress 搭配不够正式。quick 侧重"时间短、迅速"，常修饰具体行为（quick decision, quick meal），修饰 progress 时不如 rapid 地道。great progress（很大进步）虽可接受，但不能体现"快速"的含义，且空格后有"she soon became one of the best"暗示速度快。句意：凭借快速的进步，她很快成为班上最好的学生之一。 7. 当她成为一个成年人时，Emma已经蜕变成一个自信而善良的年轻女性。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 become an adult（成为成年人）。become an adult 是固定搭配，adult 意为"成年人"。grown-up 是口语化表达，正式文体中 adult 更常用；student（学生）和 elder（长辈）不符语境——文中描述的是从小到大成长的过程。句意：当她成为一个成年人时，Emma 已经蜕变成一个自信、善良的年轻女性。 8. 她从底部知道，她可以实现任何事情。考点/解析：考查固定搭配 at the bottom of one"s heart（在内心深处）。at the bottom of one"s heart 是固定搭配（考点三），意为"在心底深处"，表示发自内心的感受。base（底部/基础）不用于此搭配；end（尽头）和 deep（深的）不与 of one"s heart 构成固定短语。句意：她从心底深处知道，她可以实现任何事。 三、首字母篇章填空 根据短文内容及首字母提示，在空白处填入适当的单词。 Passage 1: Exam Stress During the t________ years, many students face great pressure from school and family.
