"Why don't we plant something there?" he asked with excitement. Since everyone in our family loves eating (2), we decided to turn it into a peanut field. It was hard work. We spent a couple of days (3) up the ground and planting the seeds carefully. My grandfather taught me that peanuts are different from many other plants. Unlike apples and peaches that show their fruits in the air, peanuts grow under the earth. "They are also good for making (4) and can be used in many kinds of dishes," he explained.

It is hard to believe that such (3) flowers can bloom from such dirty mud. One quiet afternoon, my grandmother sat beside me and shared a thought that has stayed with me ever since.

The Dunhuang caves (4) about 45,000 square metres of wall paintings and more than 2,000 painted sculptures, making them one of the greatest treasure houses of Buddhist art in the world.

"Why don't we plant something there?" he asked with excitement. Since everyone in our family loves eating (2), we decided to turn it into a peanut field. It was hard work. We spent a couple of days (3) up the ground and planting the seeds carefully. My grandfather taught me that peanuts are different from many other plants. Unlike apples and peaches that show their fruits in the air, peanuts grow under the earth. "They are also good for making (4) and can be used in many kinds of dishes," he explained. Then he said something that I will always remember: "The most important thing is not how a plant looks, but whether it (5) fruit and is useful to others." These simple words taught me a lesson that I still carry in my heart today. (1) A. small B. unused C. beautiful D. large (2) A. peanuts B. corn C. rice D. wheat (3) A. putting B. looking C. digging D. taking (4) A. juice B. wine C. milk D. oil (5) A. eats B. bears C. picks D. drops 【答案】1.B 2.A 3.C 4.D 5.B 【语篇解析】本文围绕 "The Peanut Field" 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. 【句意解析】翻译：去年春天，我的爷爷注意到房子后面有一小块未使用的的土地。考点/解析：根据上下文，这块地是"闲置的、未用过的"，unused land 是课文中出现的固定搭配，表示"未用过的土地"。选项A、C、D虽然都是形容词，但无法表达"闲置未用"的含义。 2. 【句意解析】翻译：由于家里每个人都爱吃花生，我们决定把它变成一片花生地。考点/解析：根据下文"turn it into a peanut field"可知，全家人爱吃的是花生。peanut 是U4核心词汇，意为"花生"。其他选项都是农作物，但与后文的peanut field无法对应。 3. 【句意解析】翻译：我们花了几天时间挖掘地和仔细地播种。考点/解析："dig up the ground"是课文中出现的短语，表示"掘地、翻地"。dig 是U4词汇，意为"挖、掘"。其他选项与up搭配后语义不通：put up(搭建)、look up(查阅)、take up(占据)。 4. 【句意解析】翻译："它们也适合用来制作油，可以用于很多种菜肴，"他解释道。考点/解析：课文中明确提到"peanuts are good for making oil"，oil是U4词汇，意为"食用油"。花生可榨油是常识，且与"used in many kinds of dishes"形成呼应。其他选项不符合花生的实际用途。 5. 【句意解析】翻译："最重要的不是植物的外表如何，而是它是否结(果实)果实并对他人有用。"；考点/解析：bear fruit是固定搭配，意为"结果实"。bear在此处作动词，表示"结(果实)"，是U4重点考查的熟词生义。学生容易误选其他表示"吃"或"摘"的动词，但根据文章主题——植物的价值在于产出有用的东西，bear fruit是最符合语境的选项。 Passage 2: A Lesson from the Dentist's Chair My cousin's (1) is a very special person. She works as a (2) in a small clinic near our neighbourhood. Everyone in town knows and likes her, not just because she is good at fixing teeth, but because she always takes time to talk with her patients. One evening, she told me about a young man who came to see her. He looked tired and unhappy. "I can tell you are not (3) with your daily life," she said to him gently. The young man nodded and said he felt completely lost. He didn't know what the real (4) of his work was — he simply went through the same routine every single day. My cousin's wife smiled and told him, "Every job has meaning. You might not see it now, but your efforts truly matter. Real happiness comes from showing (5) to those around you. When you help others, you help yourself too." The young man's eyes lit up. He left the clinic that day feeling hopeful and ready to face a brand new day. (1) A. sister B. wife C. daughter D. mother (2) A. teacher B. manager C. dentist D. doctor (3) A. bored B. excited C. satisfied D. worried (4) A. difficulty B. problem C. purpose D. difference (5) A. kindness B. politeness C. happiness D. helpfulness 【答案】1.B 2.C 3.C 4.C 5.D 【语篇解析】本文围绕 "A Lesson from the Dentist's Chair" 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. 【句意解析】翻译：我表哥的妻子是一个非常特别的人。考点/解析：根据开头"My cousin's"和后文"My cousin's wife"可知，此处应填wife。课文中出现"My cousin's wife enjoys working as a dentist"，wife是U4基础词汇，意为"妻子"。其他选项虽都是家庭成员，但与课文原句及后文复现不一致。 2. 【句意解析】翻译：她在我们家附近的一家小诊所做牙医。考点/解析：根据后文"fixing teeth"可知她是一名牙科医生。dentist 是U4词汇，意为"牙科医生"。选项D的doctor范围太宽，而dentist精确指向"牙医"，与fixing teeth直接对应。课文中同样出现"working as a dentist"。 3. 【句意解析】翻译："我看得出来你对日常生活不满意的，"她温和地对他说。考点/解析：be satisfied with是固定搭配，意为"对……满意"。根据语境，年轻人"tired and unhappy"，说明他对生活不满意。satisfied是U4词汇，课文原句为"you might never be satisfied in life"。bored with也表示"厌倦"，但satisfied与原文更贴合。 4. 【句意解析】翻译：他不知道他工作的真正目的是什么——他只是每天重复着同样的作息。考点/解析：purpose意为"目的、意义"，课文原句有"finding your purpose in life"。年轻人感觉迷茫，不知道工作的真正目的是什么。选项A和B都表示"困难、问题"，D表示"差异"，均不符合"寻找人生意义"的语境。 5. 【句意解析】翻译：真正的幸福来自于向周围的人展现乐于助人。考点/解析：helpfulness意为"乐于助人"，是U4重点词汇，课文原句"helpfulness is an amazing quality"。此题难度较高，因为kindness(善良)也是合理的选项，容易构成干扰。但根据后文"When you help others, you help yourself too"，强调 "主动帮助他人的行为"，helpfulness比kindness更贴近"助人行为"这一核心语义。 Passage 3: The Lotus Pond Every summer, my grandmother takes me to visit a beautiful (1) pond near her home in the countryside. The sight always takes my breath away. Pink and white flowers float gently on the still water, and their long, thin (2) reach deep into the muddy bottom of the pond. It is hard to believe that such (3) flowers can bloom from such dirty mud. One quiet afternoon, my grandmother sat beside me and shared a thought that has stayed with me ever since. "Look at the lotus," she said softly. "It teaches us something important about finding our true (4). No matter how difficult your starting point is, you can always rise and grow into something wonderful." She then (5) the lotus with other flowers that need perfect soil to grow. "The lotus doesn't wait for perfect conditions," she explained. "It creates beauty right where it is." I realized that day that I should be like the lotus — always reaching for the light, no matter where I begin. (1) A. fish B. lotus C. duck D. water (2) A. leaves B. roots C. stems D. flowers (3) A. strange B. common C. attractive D. expensive (4) A. dream B. name C. home D. self (5) A. described B. compared C. explained D. introduced 【答案】1.B 2.C 3.C 4.D 5.B 【语篇解析】本文围绕 "The Lotus Pond" 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. 【句意解析】翻译：每年夏天，奶奶都会带我去她乡下老家附近一个美丽的莲花池。考点/解析：lotus pond是固定搭配，意为"莲花池"，课文中in the lotus pond是核心短语。lotus是U4词汇，表示"莲属植物"。后文反复出现lotus，形成明显的词汇复现线索。其他选项虽可与pond搭配，但与全文主题不符。 2. 【句意解析】翻译：粉色和白色的花朵静静地漂浮在水面上，它们细长的茎深深扎入池塘泥泞的底部。考点/解析：stem意为"茎、梗"，是U4词汇，课文中出现"its thin stem"。根据"long"和"reach deep into"的描述，此处讲的是花茎深入水底。leaves是叶子、roots是根、flowers是花，均不符合"细长、深入水底"的形态描述。 3. 【句意解析】翻译：很难相信如此吸引人的的花朵会从如此肮脏的泥土中绽放出来。考点/解析：attractive意为"吸引人的、美丽的"，是U4词汇，课文中"not very attractive"是考查重点。此处描述莲花从泥中开出美丽花朵的反差，attractive最符合语境。strange(奇怪的)无法形容花朵之美；common(普通的)与"hard to believe"的矛盾语境不符。 4. 【句意解析】翻译："看看莲花，"她轻声说，"它教会了我们关于寻找真正自我的重要道理。"；考点/解析：self意为"自我、本来面目"，是U4重点词汇。"finding our true self"表示"找到真正的自我"。课文中"always be my best self"是核心句子。此题难度较高，因为dream(梦想)在哲理类文章中也很常见，容易构成干扰。但根据全文"从泥中开出花"的比喻——不因环境否定自己，应选择self表达"发现真实的自己"这一深层主题。 5. 【句意解析】翻译：然后她把莲花比较那些需要完美土壤才能生长的花卉。考点/解析：compare...with...是固定搭配，意为"将……与……比较"，是U4词汇，课文中"compared with being useful"是重点。根据"the lotus with other flowers"可知此处是比较莲花和其他花卉。described(描述)、explained(解释)、introduced(介绍)后面通常不接with表示比较。 Passage 4: The Daughter of Dunhuang Fan Jinshi is known across China as the (1) of Dunhuang, and her life story has moved millions of people. She has (2) a large part of her life to protecting the ancient Mogao Caves, a UNESCO World Heritage site. After she (3) from Beijing University in 1963, she made a choice that surprised many — she went to work in the remote Gobi Desert without any hesitation. The Dunhuang caves (4) about 45,000 square metres of wall paintings and more than 2,000 painted sculptures, making them one of the greatest treasure houses of Buddhist art in the world. However, when Fan first arrived, the (5) of these priceless artworks was quite poor. Years of wind, sand, and overtourism had caused serious damage to the paintings. Fan Jinshi spent the following decades doing careful (6) on how to protect and restore the ancient treasures. In the late 1980s, she came up with the idea of digitalizing the caves so that people around the world could enjoy their beauty online. Fan believes deeply that everyone has a duty to (7) the needs of their country. Her life reminds us that one person's dedication can truly change the world. (1) A. Mother B. Sister C. Daughter D. Queen (2) A. given B. devoted C. handed D. passed (3) A. left B. returned C. graduated D. moved (4) A. hold B. cover C. contain D. house (5) A. number B. price C. condition D. height (6) A. business B. research C. shopping D. cleaning (7) A. serve B. change C. question D. forget 【答案】1.C 2.B 3.C 4.D 5.C 6.B 7.A 【语篇解析】本文围绕 "The Daughter of Dunhuang" 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. 【句意解析】翻译：樊锦诗在全国被誉为敦煌的女儿，她的人生故事感动了数百万人。考点/解析："Daughter of Dunhuang"是樊锦诗的荣誉称号，意为"敦煌的女儿"。daughter是U4词汇，课文中"Daughter of Dunhuang"是核心短语。此处daughter不是"亲生女儿"的本义，而是比喻义——"守护者、传承者"，考查学生对一词多义的理解。 2. 【句意解析】翻译：她将生命中的大部分时间奉献了保护古老的莫高窟这一联合国教科文组织世界遗产。考点/解析：devote...to...是固定搭配，意为"把……奉献给……"，to后接动名词。devote是U4重点词汇，课文中"she has devoted a large part of her life to researching"是原句。give也可表示"给予"，但缺少奉献意味；hand和pass均表示"传递"，与语境不符。 3. 【句意解析】翻译：1963年毕业北京大学后，她做出了一个令许多人惊讶的选择——毫不犹豫地去偏远的戈壁沙漠工作。考点/解析：graduate from是固定搭配，意为"从……毕业"。graduate是U4词汇，课文中"after she graduated in 1963"是原句。选项A的left也可表示离开学校，但不特指毕业；B和D与学校搭配表示搬离或返回，均不如graduated准确。 4. 【句意解析】翻译：敦煌石窟安置了约45000平方米的壁画和2000多尊彩塑，使其成为世界上最伟大的佛教艺术宝库之一。考点/解析：house在此处作动词，意为"收藏、安置"，读作/haʊz/。课文中"Dunhuang caves house about 45,000 square metres of wall paintings"直接考查house的动词用法。此题难度高，因为学生通常只认识house的名词义"房子"。hold(容纳)、contain(包含)、cover(覆盖)虽语义相近，但house特指"建筑或场所作为藏馆安置珍贵物品"，更贴合莫高窟"藏经纳宝"的语境。 5. 【句意解析】翻译：然而，当樊刚到时，这些无价艺术品的状况相当糟糕。考点/解析：condition意为"状态、状况"，是U4词汇，课文中"the condition of the caves"是原句。根据后文"quite poor"可知描述的是壁画的保存状况不佳。number(数量)、price(价格)、height(高度)均无法与poor搭配描述文物的状况。 6. 【句意解析】翻译：樊锦诗在随后的几十年里对如何保护和修复这些古老珍宝进行了仔细的研究。考点/解析：do research on是固定搭配，意为"对……做研究"。research是U4词汇，课文中"researching and protecting the ancient Dunhuang caves"是原句。樊锦诗花费数十年研究如何保护壁画，research最准确地概括了她的学术工作。其他选项均不符合上下文语境。 7. 【句意解析】翻译：樊深信，每个人都有责任去服务国家的需要。考点/解析：serve the needs of是固定搭配，意为"满足……的需要"。serve是U4词汇，课文中"serve the needs of her country"是原句。此题难度较高，因为change the needs(改变需求)在语法上也可通，容易形成干扰。但serve强调"服务、满足"，符合文中"报效国家"的奉献主题，且与课文原句一致。 Passage 5: The Cactus in the Garden In my grandmother's garden, there stands a tall, green (1) in the corner. It has been there for as long as I can remember, standing like a silent guard day after day. (2) most other plants in the garden that need frequent watering and careful attention, the cactus seems to need almost nothing from anyone. Its real strength, however, is something deeply (3) from view. Inside its thick, fleshy body, the cactus stores water gathered over many months. This special ability allows it to survive the hottest summers and the driest winters without complaint. Over the years, the cactus has taught me many valuable lessons about life and (4). We often imagine that only famous or powerful people can truly make a difference in the world. But the truth is that countless ordinary people (5) to the world in quiet, unseen ways every single day. They care for their families with love, help their neighbours without asking for anything in return, and do their work with honesty and pride. We should never (6) a person's worth by their appearance, their clothes, or their job title. Real value is measured by what one gives, not by what one shows on the surface. At the end of each year, my grandmother holds a warm and joyful (7) in her garden. She invites all the neighbours over and shares delicious food grown from her own land. Every time, without fail, she points to the cactus standing in the corner and says, "Be like this plant — strong, patient, and full of hidden treasures waiting to be discovered." I am always deeply (8) by her simple but powerful words. Like the cactus in the garden, I hope to live a life that matters quietly but truly — a life of hidden strength and steady contribution.

"It's a p________ to let it go to waste like that," said our teacher, Mr. Wang. "Since you all enjoy eating peanuts, let's turn it into a peanut field!" We were excited and started d________ up the ground right away. A cactus stores water in dry deserts and a lotus grows in ponds.

Peanuts are cheap and good for making o________. In just a couple of months, we had a wonderful harvest! We held a big c________ in the school hall and shared our peanuts with the whole school. (1). u________ (2). p________ (3). d________ (4). u________ (5). s________ (6). a________ (7). b________ (8). c________ (9). o________ (10). c________ 【答案】1.unused 2.pity 3.digging 4.Unlike 5.stem 6.attractive 7.bears 8.Compared 9.oil 10.celebration 【语篇解析】本文围绕 "A Peanut Garden" 展开，讲述一个完整的故事，考生需把握文章主旨，结合上下文语境理解空格处所需首字母对应单词的拼写、词性与搭配。 (1) 我们班在学校大楼后面发现了一小块未使用的的土地。考点/解析：意为“未用过的”，修饰名词 land，表示“未使用的土地”。a piece of unused land 是固定搭配，unused 由 use 加前缀 un- 和后缀 -ed 构成。 (2) "让它就这么浪费掉真是太遗憾了，"我们的王老师说。考点/解析：意为“遗憾”。It's a pity to do sth 是固定句型，表示“做某事很遗憾”。此处 to let it go to waste 表示“让它白白浪费”。 (3) 我们很兴奋，马上开始挖掘地。考点/解析：意为“挖掘”。started 后接动名词，dig 需双写字母 g 再加 -ing 构成 digging。digging up the ground 意为“掘地”，dig up 为短语动词，表示“掘地、挖掘出”。 (4) 不像苹果和桃子那样把果实露在空中，花生是在地下生长的。考点/解析：意为“不像”，是介词，置于句首引导对比状语，后接名词 apples and peaches。Unlike A, B... 表示“不像 A，B……”。注意位于句首首字母需大写。 (5) 你只能通过它细长的茎和小小的叶子来辨认出花生植株。考点/解析：意为“茎、梗”。by looking at its thin stem 意为“通过看它细长的茎”。stem 指植物的茎，常与 thin, long 等形容词搭配。 (6) 花生的花朵并不十分吸引人的，但植株会在地下结出果实。考点/解析：意为“吸引人的”。not very attractive 意为“不是很吸引人的”，修饰 peanut flower。attractive 是形容词，由动词 attract 派生。 (7) 花生的花朵并不十分吸引人，但植株会在地下结(果实)果实。考点/解析：意为“结（果实）”。主语 the plant 为第三人称单数，bear 需加 -s 构成 bears。bear fruit 意为“结果实”，是固定搭配。此处 bear 不表示“忍受”或“熊”，而是“结出果实”之意，属一词多义的难点。 (8) "比较美丽，有用才更加重要，"王老师告诉我们。考点/解析：意为“比较”。Compared with 是固定搭配，表示“与……相比”，用过去分词形式作状语。注意首字母需大写，且必须用过去分词 Compared 而非 Comparing。 (9) 花生很便宜，也适合用来制作油。考点/解析：意为“食用油”。good for making oil 意为“适合榨油”，oil 指食用油。for making 中 for 表用途，后接动名词 making。 (10) 我们在学校礼堂举办了一场盛大的庆祝，和全校分享了我们的花生。考点/解析：意为“庆祝、庆典”。held a celebration 意为“举行庆祝活动”，celebration 是名词，由动词 celebrate 派生。 Passage 2: Daughter of Dunhuang Fan Jinshi is widely known as the D________ of Dunhuang.
