一、单词拼写
1. (给我指路) to the library, please.
【答案】Show me the way
【解析】句意:请给我指到图书馆的路。“给某人指路”用show sb. the way表达,句子是祈使句的肯定形式,以动词原形开始,“我”用me表达,是人称代词宾格,作宾语。
2. My computer is d (不运行的), so I can’t use it now.
【答案】dead##ead
【解析】句意:我的电脑坏了,所以我现在没法使用它。观察句子可知,本句为主系表结构,be动词is后需要填入形容词作表语。结合中文提示“不运行的”以及首字母d提示,单词dead可表示机器停止运转、坏掉的,符合语境。
3. We are good neighbours and we live in the same c .
【答案】(c)ommunity
【解析】句意:我们是好邻居,住在同一个社区里。根据“good neighbours”和“live in the same”以及首字母“c”提示可知,此处需填一个表示“居住区域”的名词,邻居应是住在同一个社区里,community符合。故填(c)ommunity。
4. You can p your bike over there.
【答案】park##ark
【解析】句意:你可以把自行车停放在那边。根据句意和首字母p提示填park(停放)。 park作动词时,表示“停放(车辆)”,can是情态动词,后面接动词原形,所以填park。
5. As students, we should take n in class.
【答案】(n)otes
【解析】句意:作为学生,我们应该在课堂上记笔记。根据“take n... in class”可知要在课堂上做笔记,take notes做笔记。故填(n)otes。
6. In winter, people wear warm g to protect their hands from cold weather.
【答案】(g)loves
【解析】句意:在冬天,人们戴温暖的手套来保护他们的手免受寒冷天气的影响。根据首字母提示和“to protect their hands from cold weather”可知,此处表示戴手套保护手,glove“手套”,通常用复数形式gloves。故填(g)loves。
7. It's not far from here. The bus r takes about 20 minutes.
【答案】ride
【解析】句意:离这儿不远。坐公共汽车大约需要20分钟。根据“takes about 20 minutes”及首字母提示可知,此处指的是“乘坐公共汽车”,是bus ride,此处的ride“乘坐”,是一个名词,故填ride。
8. I often go to the (movie) with my friends on weekends.
【答案】movies
【解析】句意:我周末经常和朋友们去看电影。go to the movies“去看电影”,此处用movie的复数形式movies,表示“看电影”这一活动,而非单一的某部电影。故填movies。
二、完成句子
1. 你能帮我倒垃圾吗?
Could you please help me take out the ?
【答案】rubbish
【解析】由中英文对比可知,缺少“垃圾”;rubbish“垃圾”,不可数名词;take out the rubbish表示“倒垃圾”。故填rubbish。
2. 当你想到任何好主意时最好立刻记下它们。(汉译英)
You’d better as soon as you come up with any good ideas.
【答案】write them down##take them down##note them down##mark them down
【解析】英汉对照,需要翻译的部分是“记下它们”记下:write/take/note/mark down,动词之后使用代词的宾格形式,“它们”的宾格形式是them;在动词短语write/take/note/mark down中,down是副词,如果它后面的宾语是代词,则必须把该宾语放在down之前。故填write/take/note/mark them down。
3. I’m tired. Let’s (好好休息一下).
【答案】① have ② a ③ good ④ rest
【解析】【分析】
句意:我累了。让我们好好休息一下。句中let’s=let us,此处是由let引导的祈使句,结构为:let+宾语+动词原形+其他,所以let’s后接动词原形;根据汉语提示“好好休息一下”可知,此处使用have a good rest。故填have;a;good;rest。
4. 听到这个消息后,她立刻跑出了房间。
After hearing the news, she ran out of the room .
【答案】right away##at once
【解析】根据句意及空格处可知,缺少“立刻”的表达。right away/at once“马上;立刻”,固定短语,作状语。故填right away/at once。
5. 请当心那个花瓶,它很容易碎。
Please that vase; it’s very easy to be broken.
【答案】① be ② careful ③ with
【解析】原句中“当心……”是关键词,表示“当心……”的短语是be careful with。本句为祈使句,Please后接动词原形。
6. Some children stop playing computer games after their parents go home. (保持句意基本不变)
Some children don’t their parents go home.
【答案】stop playing computer games until
【解析】句意:一些孩子在父母回家后就停止玩电脑游戏。句子可以表达为“一些孩子直到父母回家才停止玩电脑游戏”,not…until“直到……才”,stop playing computer games“停止玩电脑游戏”,don’t后跟动词原形。故填stop playing computer games until。
7. I can help my mum do the dishes.(改为寻求许可的一般疑问句)
help my mum do the dishes?
【答案】① Can ② I
【解析】句意:我可以帮妈妈洗碗。原句有情态动词can,改为一般疑问句直接把can提到句首,首字母大写Can,因题干要求“寻求许可”,因此主语保持I不变,应填Can;I。
三、单项选择
1. —________ we use the school’s online library to borrow e-books?
—Yes, you can. It’s open 24 hours a day.
A. Can B. Would C. May D. Will
【答案】A
【解析】句意:——我们可以使用学校的在线图书馆借电子书吗?——是的,可以。它一天24小时开放。
考查情态动词辨析。Can能够;Would愿意;May可以;Will将会。根据答语“Yes, you can.”可知,此处是询问“是否允许”使用在线图书馆,表示请求许可,问句用Can是最直接、最标准的对应。故选A。
2. Could you please ________ the floor?
A. sweep B. to sweep C. sweeping D. sweeps
【答案】A
【解析】句意:你能扫一下地吗?
固定句型Could you please do sth.,please后面接动词原形。
3. I won’t put down my Chinese textbook ________ I remember this poem.
A. if B. until C. because D. though
【答案】B
【解析】句意:直到我记住这首诗,我才会放下我的中文课本。
考查连词辨析。if如果;until直到;because因为;though尽管。根据句意可知,主句为否定句(won’t put down),且从句表示时间终点,符合“not...until...”结构,意为“直到……才……”。故选B。

A. died; dead B. dead; died C. death; dead D. died; death
【答案】A
【解析】句意:这只可怜的狗两天前死了。今天早上它的尸体在院子里被发现了。
考查词性辨析与用法。died死,动词, 是die的过去式,可作谓语;dead死的、无生命的,形容词,可作定语或表语;death死亡,是名词,可作主语和宾语。第一空后有明确时间状语“two days ago”,因此用一般过去时,且句子缺少谓语动词,需用died;第二空修饰名词“body”,需用形容词dead作定语,故选A。
5. Recently, more and more young people in big cities choose to live in a ________ where they can share common interests, and work in a group.
A. society B. community C. population D. countryside
【答案】B
【解析】句意:最近,越来越多的大城市年轻人选择住在一个社区,在那里他们可以分享共同的兴趣,并在一个小组中工作。
考查名词辨析。society社会;community社区;population人口;countryside农村。根据“where they can share common interests, and work in a group”可知,此处强调该处所具备“分享共同兴趣”和“集体工作”的特征,应是指社区,“community”专指共享兴趣和协作的居住或群体环境,与语境高度契合。故选B。
6. —_________ I borrow your glue to stick the photos?
—Sure, here you are.
A. Must B. Should C. Could D. Need
【答案】C
【解析】句意:——我可以借你的胶水来贴照片吗?——当然,给你。
考查情态动词。Must必须;Should应该;Could可以;Need需要。根据答语“Sure, here you are.”可知,表示同意请求,此处应该是礼貌地请求许可,Could常用于委婉表达请求,故选C。
7. —Jim, ________ I use your computer?
—Yes, of course you ________.
A. could; could B. can; should C. can; must D. could; can
【答案】D
【解析】句意:——吉姆,我可以用一下你的电脑吗?——当然可以。
考查情态动词。could(can的过去式)可以,表示更委婉的请求;can可以,表示允许或能力;should应该;must必须。问句表示委婉请求,用could更礼貌;答句表示肯定允许,用can回答。故选D。
8. —Could you give me a lift to the shop?
—Sorry, I ________ work from home all day.
A. can B. have to C. can’t D. could
【答案】B
【解析】句意:——你能载我去商店吗?——抱歉,我不得不整天在家工作。
can能(表能力或可能性);have to不得不(表客观需要);can’t不能(表能力不足);could可以(过去式或委婉语气)。根据“Sorry”可知表示拒绝,后句解释原因,表示“不得不”在家工作,用have to。

A. mess B. rubbish C. noise D. clothes
【答案】B
【解析】句意:为了保持我们城市的美丽,清洁工们在街上总是很忙。我们不应该把垃圾扔得到处都是。
考查名词辨析。mess混乱;rubbish垃圾;noise噪音;clothes衣服。根据“To keep our city beautiful, cleaners are always very busy in the streets.”可知,这里指我们不应该在街道上乱扔垃圾。故选B。
10. It is interesting for students ________ part in the school’s Arts and Sports Festival.
A. takes B. taking C. to take D. will take
【答案】C
【解析】句意:学生们参加学校的艺术体育节是很有趣的。
考查非谓语动词。根据“It is interesting for students…part in the school’s Arts”可知,此处是“It is+形容词 +for sb. to do sth.”句型,意为“对某人来说做某事是……的”,其中it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式to do sth.。因此空格处应填动词不定式to take。take part in是固定短语,意为“参加”。故选C。
11. —How often do you go to _________ movies?
—Once _________ month.
A. the; a B. /; a C. the; an D. /; an
【答案】A
【解析】句意:——你多久去看一次电影?——一个月一次。
考查冠词用法。在“go to the movies”中,固定短语需用定冠词the表示特指的电影活动;在“once a month”中,固定表达,表述“每月一次”,且month以辅音音素开头,故用a而非an。选项A正确匹配此用法。故选A。
12. Students ________ when the teachers give the lessons.
A. take away B. take turns C. take photos D. take notes
【答案】D
【解析】句意:老师讲课时,学生们记笔记。
考查动词短语。take away拿走;take turns轮流;take photos拍照;take notes记笔记。根据“when the teachers give the lessons.”可知,老师讲课时,学生应是记笔记。故选D。
13. After the rainstorm, the neighbors join together to ________ the neighborhood.
A. pack up B. clean up C. hang up D. pick up
【答案】B
【解析】句意:暴雨过后,邻居们一起打扫社区。
考查动词短语辨析。pack up打包;clean up打扫;hang up挂断电话;pick up捡起。根据“After the rainstorm”可推知,暴雨过后,邻居们一起做的事情应该是打扫社区,所以此处应该用clean up。故选B。
14. On his way home, his bike broke down. But a kind driver ________.
A. gave him five B. gave him a lift C. gave him a call D. gave him a look
【答案】B
【解析】句意:在他回家的路上,他的自行车坏了。但是一位好心的司机让他搭了便车。
考查动词短语辨析。gave him five击掌;gave him a lift让他搭便车;gave him a call给他打电话;gave him a look看他一眼。根据“On his way home, his bike broke down.”可知,自行车坏了,需要交通帮助,“gave me a lift”最贴切,故选B。
15. —How could you ________ so late? We are worried about you.
—Sorry, Mum. I promise I will come back before six o’clock.
A. stay up B. stay away C. stay in D. stay out
【答案】D
【解析】句意:——你怎么能在外面待到这么晚?我们都很担心你。——对不起,妈妈。我保证六点前回来。
考查动词短语辨析。stay up熬夜;stay away离开;stay in待在……里面;stay out待在外面,不回家。根据“We are worried about you.”和“I promise I will come back before six o’clock.”可知,妈妈担心孩子在外面待到太晚,所以孩子保证六点前回来,因此此处应该用stay out。故选D。
16. —Let’s go to the cinema. There is a good _________ on this week.
—Sounds great!
A. movie B. game C. story
【答案】A
【解析】句意:——我们去看电影吧。这周有一部好电影在上映。——听起来很棒!
考查名词辨析。movie电影;game游戏;story故事。根据前句“Let’s go to the cinema.”可知,是去电影院,所以应该是有一部好“电影”在上映。故选A。
17. You ________ help me if you’re busy. I can do it myself.
A. mustn’t B. don’t have to C. can’t
【答案】B
【解析】句意:如果你忙的话,你不必帮我。我自己能做。

一、选词填空
从方框中选择恰当的情态动词补全短文 (可重复使用)
can, could, must, have to, should
On Sunday morning, Emma and her little sister Lily were playing in their house.
“Emma, I found a box. 1 you help me take it out?” Lily’s voice came from the bedroom.
“Sure,” Emma said. There were old toys from their parents’ childhood. They were excited.
“Dad, 2 you show us how to play with these toys?” Lily asked.
“Sorry, dear. I 3 clean our house this morning,” Dad replied.
“Dad, we 4 help you,” Emma said.
“You’re so sweet. Let me see. 5 you help me organize the bookcase?” Dad asked.
Emma and Lily began arranging books by size and color. After that Dad said, “Thank you, my dears. Now, 6 you please set the table for lunch?”
“Of course,” Emma and Lily said.
Lily put plates on the table in a rush. Emma stopped her and said, “We 7 put them carefully on the table, or we’ll break them.”
“Now I 8 tell you how to play with those toys,” Dad said after lunch. They had a great time playing together.
【答案】1. Could##Can 2. could##can 3. have to 4. can 5. Could##Can 6. could 7. should 8. can
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了周日上午Emma、妹妹Lily和爸爸互动,帮忙做家务并期待爸爸展示玩具玩法的故事。
(1)题: 句意:你能帮我把它拿出来吗?根据句意以及“you help me take it out?”可知,此处是Lily请求Emma帮忙,请求对方做某事常用“Could/Can you...?”句型。Could语气更委婉礼貌,Can语气更直接,此处两种情态动词均符合语境。故填Could/Can。
(2)题: 句意:爸爸,你能给我们展示一下怎么玩这些玩具吗?根据“Dad...you show us how to play with these toys?”可知,这里是Lily向爸爸提出请求,需用表请求的情态动词,can和could均可。故填could/can。
(3)题: 句意:对不起,亲爱的。我今天早上必须打扫我们的房子。根据“Sorry, dear.”可知,他无法满足女儿的请求,原因是“必须”做家务,有客观必要性。must强调主观认为必须,have to强调客观必要性,符合语境。主语是I,时态为一般现在时,所以用原形have to。故填have to。
(4)题: 句意:爸爸,我们可以帮你。根据“Dad, we...help you”可知,此处是艾玛主动提出帮忙,表示“我们能够/可以帮忙”,表达提供帮助的意愿和能力。can表示“能够,可以”,符合语境。故填can。
(5)题: 句意:你们能帮我整理一下书柜吗?根据“Let me see...you help me organize the bookcase?”可知,此处是爸爸向女儿们发出请求,询问“能否”帮忙整理书柜,需用表请求的情态动词,can和could均可,且位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Could/Can。
(6)题: 句意:现在,你们能帮忙布置午饭的桌子吗?根据“Now...you please set the table for lunch?”可知,此处是爸爸请求孩子们布置餐桌,此处是带有“please”的礼貌请求,“Could you please...”是表达委婉请求的常用固定句型。因此用could you please...这个句型更显礼貌和委婉,且符合语境。故填could。
(7)题: 句意:我们应该小心地把它们放在桌子上,否则我们会打碎它们的。根据“or we’ll break them”可知,前半句是为避免坏结果而提出的建议,should“应该”最能体现这种劝告语气,符合语境。故填should。
(8)题: 句意:现在我可以告诉你们怎么玩那些玩具了。根据“tell you how to play with those toys”以及句意可知,此处表示爸爸可以教孩子们玩玩具,强调能力或许可。can表示“能够,可以”,符合语境。故填can。
二、语法填空
1. 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Every Saturday morning, there is a fight in 1 (thousand) of houses across America.

【答案】1. thousands 2. clean 3. doing 4. slowly 5. up 6. to change 7. a 8. them 9. If##When 10. boxes
【解析】本文主要介绍了父母如何让孩子养成爱整洁的好习惯。
(1)题: 句意:每周六早上,美国成千上万的家庭都会发生一场争斗。thousands of是固定短语,意为“成千上万的”,用来修饰可数名词复数“houses”,符合语境。故填thousands。
(2)题: 句意:爸爸或妈妈一开始可能会和蔼地说:“亲爱的,你能打扫一下你的房间吗?”“Could you please + 动词原形”是固定句型,用来提出请求,clean为动词原形,符合语法要求。故填clean。
(3)题: 句意:孩子可能会浪费时间什么都不做,或者只是说“不”。waste time in doing sth.是固定短语,意为“浪费时间做某事”,in为介词,后接动名词形式,do的动名词是doing。故填doing。
(4)题: 句意:随着早上慢慢过去,父母会生气。“passes”是动词,需要用副词来修饰,slow的副词形式是slowly,表示“慢慢地”,符合语境。故填slowly。

(9)题: 句意:如果/当每样东西都有自己的位置,孩子们整理房间就会更容易。分析句子可知,前后句之间是条件或时间关系,If表示“如果”,When表示“当……时”,均符合语境。故填If/When。

一、阅读单选
(来源:2024年河南省中考英语真题)Vicky’s mother opened the door. She had a look at Vicky’s bedroom.
“What a mess! It looks as if a hurricane (飓风) passed through Vicky’s bedroom,” said Vicky’s mother. “I must ask her to clean it.”
Vicky was eating breakfast. Her father came into the kitchen and said, “Mom wants you to clean your room. It looks as if a hurricane passed through it.”
Joe, Vicky’s little brother, asked, “A hurricane? Is that a bad thing?”
“Sure it is,” said his father.
“I’ll do it after school, Dad,” said Vicky. “My first class is geography and Mr. Miller hates people to be late.” And off she ran through the front door.
Twenty minutes later, Vicky ran into her classroom.
“Today,” said Mr. Miller, “we’re going to learn about hurricanes. Have any of you seen a hurricane?” Vicky thought about her bedroom, but she said nothing.
“I haven’t seen one. Not a real one but I watched a program on TV and I know they destroy (破坏) things and leave a mess,” said James who sat next to Vicky.
“Yes,” said Mr. Miller. “But today I’m going to surprise you. Sometimes hurricanes do good.”
“Hurricanes can be good things?” Vicky asked.
“Oh, yes,” said Mr. Miller. “Hurricanes bring a lot of water to rivers and lakes that are becoming dry. Animals and fish come back to live in them. Hurricanes also pick up heat from the very hot areas of the world and drop it in less warm places.”
“So, hurricanes can be good things,” Vicky said to herself. “I’m going to show Mom the good part.”
When Vicky got home in the afternoon, she began to clean up her bedroom. She put all of her things in their proper places.
“Mom,” she called. “Can you come here for a minute?”
Vicky’s mother put her head around the door.
“Vicky!” she said. “That looks fantastic! I told your dad this morning that it looked as if a hurricane had hit it!”
“Are you sure that’s a bad thing, Mom?” asked Vicky, smiling.

(来源:2024年河南省中考英语真题)Vicky’s mother opened the door. She had a look at Vicky’s bedroom.
“What a mess! It looks as if a hurricane (飓风) passed through Vicky’s bedroom,” said Vicky’s mother. “I must ask her to clean it.”
Vicky was eating breakfast. Her father came into the kitchen and said, “Mom wants you to clean your room. It looks as if a hurricane passed through it.”
Joe, Vicky’s little brother, asked, “A hurricane? Is that a bad thing?”
“Sure it is,” said his father.
“I’ll do it after school, Dad,” said Vicky. “My first class is geography and Mr. Miller hates people to be late.” And off she ran through the front door.
Twenty minutes later, Vicky ran into her classroom.
“Today,” said Mr. Miller, “we’re going to learn about hurricanes. Have any of you seen a hurricane?” Vicky thought about her bedroom, but she said nothing.
“I haven’t seen one. Not a real one but I watched a program on TV and I know they destroy (破坏) things and leave a mess,” said James who sat next to Vicky.
“Yes,” said Mr. Miller. “But today I’m going to surprise you. Sometimes hurricanes do good.”
“Hurricanes can be good things?” Vicky asked.
“Oh, yes,” said Mr. Miller. “Hurricanes bring a lot of water to rivers and lakes that are becoming dry. Animals and fish come back to live in them. Hurricanes also pick up heat from the very hot areas of the world and drop it in less warm places.”
“So, hurricanes can be good things,” Vicky said to herself. “I’m going to show Mom the good part.”
When Vicky got home in the afternoon, she began to clean up her bedroom. She put all of her things in their proper places.
“Mom,” she called. “Can you come here for a minute?”
Vicky’s mother put her head around the door.
“Vicky!” she said. “That looks fantastic! I told your dad this morning that it looked as if a hurricane had hit it!”
“Are you sure that’s a bad thing, Mom?” asked Vicky, smiling.
