长难句解析
原句:(第二段第三句)I think I've done everything that I can in chess and I have put all that I have into the games.
译文:我想我在国际象棋上尽了我所能,我已经把我所有的精力都投入到比赛中了。
分析:本句是一个由and连接的并列复合句。I've done everything that I can in chess 是省略了引导词that的宾语从句,作动词think的宾语。that I can in chess是that引导的定语从句,修饰先行词everything:that I have是that引导的定语从句,修饰先行词all。
【答案与解析】
2023年4月30日,中国棋手丁立人成为中国第一位夺得国际象棋世界冠军的男棋手。
1. worried 根据下一句中的“he finally got over his pressure"可知,最终丁立人克服了压力。由此可推知,此处指他在比赛前很担心。空处应填形容词作表语,故填worry的形容词形worried。
2. hard 根据上一句可知,现在,如果没有比赛,丁立人不会高兴。故此处表示“对于我来说,很难找到另一项爱好”,故填hard。
3.widely 根据上文可知,丁立人夺得了国际象棋世界冠军。故此处指他夺冠的消息在中国的社交媒体上广泛传播。所填词在句中作状语,故填wide的副词形式widely。
4.times此处表示“截至5月1日,这个主题标签在新浪微博上被浏览了2200多万次”,rime作“次数”讲时为可数名词,且空前有22million修饰,故填其复数形式times。
5. expressed 根据空后的 congratulated Ding 可知,很多人都祝贺了丁立人。故此处表示“表达了他们的兴奋之情”。此处描述过去发生的事情,时态应用一般过去时,故填express的过去式 expressed。
6.greatest 此处指丁立人最大的支持者之一,“one of the+形容词最高级+名词复数”是固定用法,意为“最……之一”,故填great的最高级形式 greatest。
7. years 此处表示“经过大约30年的努力”。空前有数词30修饰,故填year的复数形式years。
8. means 此处指这意味着中国男子象棋也达到了世界顶级水平。所填词在句中作谓语,本句描述的是客观事实,应用一般现在时;且主语It是第三人称单数,故填means
9.moment 根据上文可知,丁立人是中国第一个国际象棋男子世界冠军,故此处表示“这一刻我们等得太久了”,故填moment。
10.and 此处指这项比赛将得到社会和政府更多的关注和支持。空前的attention和空后的support 为并列关系,故填and。
译文
2023年4月30日,中国棋手丁立人成为中国第一位夺得国际象棋世界冠军的男棋手。
据丁立人所说,他在比赛前很担心,但在朋友的帮助下,他终于克服了压力。他说:“我想我在国际象棋上尽了我所能,我已经把我所有的东西都投入到比赛中了。现在,如果没有比赛,我不会感到高兴。对于我来说,很难再找到另一项爱好。”
丁立人的冠军不仅对他,而且对所有过去和现在的中国棋手来说都是梦想成真。他夺得冠军的消息在中国的社交媒体上广泛传播。截至5月1日,“丁立人成为国际象棋世界冠军”的主题标签在新浪微博上的浏览量超过2200万次。很多人都表达了他们的兴奋之情和对丁立人的祝贺。
丁立人的最大支持者之一是谢军,她是中国著名的国际象棋选手,在 1991年赢得了全国第一个女子世界冠军。
谢军说:“这个男子冠军的意义等同于我 32 年前赢得的冠军。经过大约 30年的努力,这就像中国国际象棋在沙漠中建立了一片绿洲。这意味着中国男子国际象棋也已经达到了世界顶级水平。这一刻我们等的太久了。有了像丁立人这样的榜样,我相信更多的年轻人会参与到国际象棋中来。这项比赛将得到社会和政府更多的关注和支持。”
Passage 2
Chinese scientists have begun digging a really deep hole to the center of Earth.
The hole in Xinjiang will be 10,000 m deep when it is completed. And it will be the deepest hole ever dug in China. It will also be the second deepest in the world.It is expected to take one year and three months to complete the digging project.
China's National Petroleum Corp is the company leading the project. It said the hole would provide useful information about deep underground areas, which will help scientists learn what happens inside our planet. The hole is being dug in a part of China that is rich in oil. This could be used to make petrol,jet fuel(喷气燃料) for planes and heating oil.
Sun Jinsheng, a scientist in China, said the hole would be very difficult to dig. “The difficulty of the digging project can be compared to a big truck driving on two thin steel cables(钢丝),”he said.
Could people dig a hole all the way through Earth? Some people joke about being able to dig to China from Australia on the other side of the world. ★ Earth is made up of three main layers(层).Just the crust(地壳) is about 40 km deep. This means a 10-kilometer-deep hole will go through only one quarter of the crust.
The world's deepest man-made hole,the Kola Superdeep Hole.is in Russia.It is 12,262 m deep, was completed in 1989 and took 20 years to dig. Scientists stopped digging when the heat and pressure made the digging really difficult.
1.How long will it take scientists to dig the hole?
A. 10 months. B. 12 months. C.15 months. D.18 months.
2.Why do the scientists try to dig the hole?
A. To set up a new world record.
B.To study the inside of Earth.
C. To test the machines for digging.
D. To invent new digging technology.
3.Sun Jinsheng mentioned “a big truck" to____.
A. explain how difficult it is to drive a truck
B.show how thin the steel cable is
C. describe the great difficulty of digging the deep hole
D. compare different forms of transport
4.Which can best replace“__★__ ”in Paragraph 5?
A. How deep is the crust?
B. And practice is the best way.
C.But we know this is impossible.
D. When did people complete the project?
5.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The world's deepest man-made hole is in Russia.
B. There are two main layers that make up Earth.
C. Digging holes helps discover information of early humans.
D. The hole in Xinjiang has already been 10,000 meters deep now.
长难句解析
原句:(第四段第一句)Sun Jinsheng, a scientist in China,said the hole would be very difficult to dig.
译文:中国科学家孙金声说,这个洞很难挖。
分析:这是一个复合句。a scientist in China是 SunJinsheng的同位语;the hole would be very difficult to dig是省略that的宾语从句,作said的宾语。
【答案与解析】
为了进一步研究地球内部结构,中国要在新疆挖一个深度达1万米的洞,这将会是中国最深的人造洞,也将是世界第二深的人造洞。
1.C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It is expected to take one year and three months to complete the digging project.”可知,完成这个挖洞工程预计需要一年零三个月的时间,即15个月。
2.B细节理解题。根据第三段中的“It said the hole would provide useful information...help scientists learn what happens inside our planet.”可知,这个洞将提供有关地下深处区域的有用信息,这将帮助科学家研究地球内部结构。
3.C 推理判断题。根据第四段第一句中的“the hole would be very difficult to dig"可推知,孙金声形容这次挖洞工程如一辆大卡车在两根细钢丝上行驶,是为了描述挖这个深洞的难度。
4.C 句子还原题。空前一句提到有人开玩笑称从地球另一端的澳大利亚可以挖到中国;结合下文中的“Just the crust is about 40 km deep.This means a 10-kilometer-deep hole will go through only one quarter of the crust.”可知,仅地壳就约4万米深,这意味着一个1万米深的洞只能穿过地壳的四分之一。由此可推知,从澳大利亚挖穿到中国是不可能的。
5.A 细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句“The world's deepest man-made hole, the Kola Superdeep Hole,is in Russia."可知,世界最深的人造洞位于俄罗斯。
译文
中国科学家已经开始向地球中心挖掘一个很深的洞。
这个位于新疆的洞一旦挖成,深度将达到 10 000 米。这将是中国有史以来最深的人造洞,也将是世界上第二深的人造洞。完成挖掘工程预计需要一年零三个月的时间。
中国石油天然气集团公司是该项目的牵头公司。该公司表示,这个洞将提供有关地下深处区域的有用信息,这将帮助科学家研究地球内部结构。这个洞是在中国石油资源丰富的地区挖掘的。这些石油可用于制造汽油、飞机使用的喷气燃料和燃料油。
中国科学家孙金声说,这个洞很难挖。他说:“挖掘工程如一辆大卡车在两根细钢索上行驶。”
人们能在地球上挖出一个洞吗?有人开玩笑称从地球另一端的澳大利亚可以挖到中国。但我们知道这是不可能的。地球主要由三层结构组成。仅地壳就约4万米深,这意味着一个1万米深的洞只能穿过地壳的四分之一。
世界上最深的人造洞——Kola Superdeep Hole 位于俄罗斯。它深达 12 262米,于1989年完工,耗时20 年。高温和高压使挖掘工作变得非常困难,因此科学家们停止了挖掘工程。
Passage 3
Deniss Salmijanov is possibly the most famous foreign athlete at the Chengdu FISU World University Games.

1._________ 2._________ 3._________ 4._________ 5._________6._________
7._________ 8._________ 9._________ 10._________
长难句解析
原句:(最后一段第二句)He's been trying to put his Chinese into practice in those short videos he produces,but says that he's still a beginner when it comes to Chinese.
译文:在他制作的短视频中,他一直试图将自己的中文付诸实践,但他说,在中文方面,他仍是一个初学者。
分析:这是一个复合句。He produces为省略了引导词的定语从句,修饰先行词those short videos;that he's still...Chinese是that引导的宾语从句,作says的宾语:在这个宾语从句中,when it comes to Chinese为when引导的时间状语从句。
【答案与解析】
在成都大运会上,24岁的爱沙尼亚田径运动员 Deniss Salmijanov在网上火了!虽然他最后未能进入决赛,但他认为这次经历将有助于他为未来的挑战作准备。
1.fans 这位来自爱沙尼亚的24岁中长跑运动员在抖音上拥有200多万的粉丝。fan 为可数名词,且空前有over 2 million修饰,故填其复数形式fans。
2.of 此处指他发布的关于大运会的内容获得了成千上万的点赞和评论。thousands of“成千上万的”,为固定搭配,故填of。
3.himself Salmijanov 刚刚从塔尔图大学的牙科学硕士毕业,他称自己是“世界上800米跑得最快的牙医”。空处所填词指代本句主语Salmijanov本身,故填反身代词himself。
4.really 此处表示“我对自己在比赛中的表现非常满意,我真的很享受”。根据空后的动词enjoyed 可知,空处应填real的副词形式really。
5. first 此处表示“这是我第一次参加大运会”,故填one的序数词形式first。
6.but 空前的“Salmijanov 未能进入800米决赛”和空后的“他认为大运会上的竞争将帮助他为未来的挑战作准备”之间为转折关系,故填but。
7.interested Salmijanov 认为他的中国粉丝充满正能量,而且对他的想法感兴趣。be interested in sth.“对某事感兴趣”,为固定用法,故填interested。
8.started 6月毕业后,Salmijanov 开始学习中文,为成都之行做准备。根据空前的时间状语 After graduating in June可知,事情发生在过去,时态应用一般过去时,故填start的过去式started。
9.a 此处指当提到中文,Salmijanov说他仍是一个初学者。空处表示泛指,空后的beginner为单数可数名词,且以辅音音素开头,故填不定冠词a。
10. to explore此处表示“因为我想探索更多的中国城市”。want to do sth.“想要做某事”,为固定用法,故填to explore。
译文

长难句解析
原句:(第二段第三句)I think I've done everything that I can in chess and I have put all that I have into the games.
译文:我想我在国际象棋上尽了我所能,我已经把我所有的精力都投入到比赛中了。
分析:本句是一个由and连接的并列复合句。I've done everything that I can in chess 是省略了引导词that的宾语从句,作动词think的宾语。that I can in chess是that引导的定语从句,修饰先行词everything:that I have是that引导的定语从句,修饰先行词all。
译文
2023年4月30日,中国棋手丁立人成为中国第一位夺得国际象棋世界冠军的男棋手。
据丁立人所说,他在比赛前很担心,但在朋友的帮助下,他终于克服了压力。他说:“我想我在国际象棋上尽了我所能,我已经把我所有的东西都投入到比赛中了。现在,如果没有比赛,我不会感到高兴。对于我来说,很难再找到另一项爱好。”
丁立人的冠军不仅对他,而且对所有过去和现在的中国棋手来说都是梦想成真。他夺得冠军的消息在中国的社交媒体上广泛传播。截至5月1日,“丁立人成为国际象棋世界冠军”的主题标签在新浪微博上的浏览量超过2200万次。很多人都表达了他们的兴奋之情和对丁立人的祝贺。
丁立人的最大支持者之一是谢军,她是中国著名的国际象棋选手,在 1991年赢得了全国第一个女子世界冠军。
谢军说:“这个男子冠军的意义等同于我 32 年前赢得的冠军。经过大约 30年的努力,这就像中国国际象棋在沙漠中建立了一片绿洲。这意味着中国男子国际象棋也已经达到了世界顶级水平。这一刻我们等的太久了。有了像丁立人这样的榜样,我相信更多的年轻人会参与到国际象棋中来。这项比赛将得到社会和政府更多的关注和支持。”
Passage 2
Chinese scientists have begun digging a really deep hole to the center of Earth.
The hole in Xinjiang will be 10,000 m deep when it is completed. And it will be the deepest hole ever dug in China. It will also be the second deepest in the world.It is expected to take one year and three months to complete the digging project.
China's National Petroleum Corp is the company leading the project. It said the hole would provide useful information about deep underground areas, which will help scientists learn what happens inside our planet. The hole is being dug in a part of China that is rich in oil. This could be used to make petrol,jet fuel(喷气燃料) for planes and heating oil.
Sun Jinsheng, a scientist in China, said the hole would be very difficult to dig. “The difficulty of the digging project can be compared to a big truck driving on two thin steel cables(钢丝),”he said.
Could people dig a hole all the way through Earth? Some people joke about being able to dig to China from Australia on the other side of the world. ★ Earth is made up of three main layers(层).Just the crust(地壳) is about 40 km deep. This means a 10-kilometer-deep hole will go through only one quarter of the crust.
The world's deepest man-made hole,the Kola Superdeep Hole.is in Russia.It is 12,262 m deep, was completed in 1989 and took 20 years to dig. Scientists stopped digging when the heat and pressure made the digging really difficult.
1.How long will it take scientists to dig the hole?
A. 10 months. B. 12 months. C.15 months. D.18 months.
2.Why do the scientists try to dig the hole?
A. To set up a new world record.
B.To study the inside of Earth.
C. To test the machines for digging.
D. To invent new digging technology.
3.Sun Jinsheng mentioned “a big truck" to____.
A. explain how difficult it is to drive a truck
B.show how thin the steel cable is
C. describe the great difficulty of digging the deep hole
D. compare different forms of transport
4.Which can best replace“__★__ ”in Paragraph 5?
A. How deep is the crust?
B. And practice is the best way.
C.But we know this is impossible.
D. When did people complete the project?
5.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The world's deepest man-made hole is in Russia.
B. There are two main layers that make up Earth.
C. Digging holes helps discover information of early humans.
D. The hole in Xinjiang has already been 10,000 meters deep now.
长难句解析
原句:(第四段第一句)Sun Jinsheng, a scientist in China,said the hole would be very difficult to dig.
译文:中国科学家孙金声说,这个洞很难挖。
分析:这是一个复合句。a scientist in China是 SunJinsheng的同位语;the hole would be very difficult to dig是省略that的宾语从句,作said的宾语。
译文
中国科学家已经开始向地球中心挖掘一个很深的洞。
这个位于新疆的洞一旦挖成,深度将达到 10 000 米。这将是中国有史以来最深的人造洞,也将是世界上第二深的人造洞。完成挖掘工程预计需要一年零三个月的时间。
中国石油天然气集团公司是该项目的牵头公司。该公司表示,这个洞将提供有关地下深处区域的有用信息,这将帮助科学家研究地球内部结构。这个洞是在中国石油资源丰富的地区挖掘的。这些石油可用于制造汽油、飞机使用的喷气燃料和燃料油。
中国科学家孙金声说,这个洞很难挖。他说:“挖掘工程如一辆大卡车在两根细钢索上行驶。”
人们能在地球上挖出一个洞吗?有人开玩笑称从地球另一端的澳大利亚可以挖到中国。但我们知道这是不可能的。地球主要由三层结构组成。仅地壳就约4万米深,这意味着一个1万米深的洞只能穿过地壳的四分之一。
世界上最深的人造洞——Kola Superdeep Hole 位于俄罗斯。它深达 12 262米,于1989年完工,耗时20 年。高温和高压使挖掘工作变得非常困难,因此科学家们停止了挖掘工程。
