Passage 1
Everybody knows that Edison is a famous scientist who invented the electric light bulb. But maybe fewer people 1 about his being kind and forgiving (原谅) towards others. The following is a true story about him.
At one point in his experiments, Edison had at last 2 a working bulb—the final result of hundreds of trials (实验). It was the first electric light bulb that had ever been made, and Edison was full of 3 . He had dreamed of this moment for years. “Take it upstairs, Jimmy,” he said, handing it to his assistant (助手), Jimmy Price. 4 there was a crash, and Edison turned around to see that his precious bulb had fallen to the ground and broken into pieces on the floor. Jimmy had let the bulb slip (滑落) through his fingers 5 . Edison said nothing, but everyone could imagine what his thoughts were. He went back to his worktable and set to work once more to make another 6 .
A few days later, a new bulb was finally ready. There it 7 on the table in front of its maker, fully completed. Then Edison did a very big thing. With a smile, he handed the new bulb to Jimmy. “Be careful this time,” he said. He was giving the young man another 8 . Jimmy did not break it, so we have millions of bulbs in the world today.
As a proverb says, “Not the power to 9 , but its very opposite, the power to forget, is a necessary condition for our existence.” Life is too short and no one is 10 . If we can forgive those who have hurt us, we will have a better life.

【导语】本文通过爱迪生两次将亲手研制的初代电灯泡交给曾失手摔碎灯泡的助手吉米、以包容给对方改错机会的故事,告诉我们学会遗忘过错、宽容待人,才能收获更美好的人生的道理。
【详解】1.句意:但或许更少的人听说过他为人善良、对他人十分宽容的一面。
根据“The following is a true story about him.”可知,下文要讲述他为人善良宽容的故事,此处指这些故事少有人听说,hear about“听说”符合语境,worried about“担忧”、bring about“引起”均不符合语境。
2.句意:在他的一次实验过程中,爱迪生最终制作出了一个可用的灯泡——这是数百次实验换来的最终成果。
根据“It was the first electric light bulb that had ever been made”可知,此处指他制作出了首个可用的灯泡,produced表示“生产出、制作出”,契合实验研发的场景,sold“售出”、accepted“接受”和checked“检查”均不符合语境。
3.句意:这是人类有史以来造出的第一个电灯泡,爱迪生的心中满是自豪。
根据“It was the first electric light bulb that had ever been made”可知,爱迪生制作出了首个灯泡,他应是自豪的,pride“自豪”符合人物情绪,hope“希望”、anxiety“焦虑”和surprise“惊喜”均不符合语境。
4.句意:突然传来一声脆响,爱迪生转头就看到自己珍贵的灯泡掉到了地上,摔成了碎片。
根据“his precious bulb had fallen to the ground and broken into pieces on the floor”可知灯泡滑落破碎是突发意外,Suddenly“突然”符合场景,Luckily“幸运地”、Excitingly“令人兴奋地”和Finally“最终”均不符合语境。
5.句意:吉米是不小心让灯泡从指缝间滑落的。
根据“let the bulb slip (滑落) through his fingers ”可知,carelessly“粗心地、不小心地”是造成意外滑落的原因。 sadly“伤心地”、angrily“生气地”和carefully“小心翼翼地”均不符合语境。
6.句意:他回到工作台,再一次着手重新制作另一个灯泡。
根据上文“his precious bulb had fallen to the ground and broken into pieces on the floor”可知,前文提到的灯泡摔碎了,自然是重新制作灯泡,bulb“灯泡”符合语境,fan“扇子”、phone“电话”和book“书”均不符合语境。
7.句意:它完完整整地摆放在它的创造者面前的桌子上。
根据“A few days later, a new bulb was finally ready.”可知,此处灯泡已经制作完毕,应是摆放在桌子上,lay是lie的过去式,意为“躺、位于”,符合物品在桌上的状态,learned“学习”、held“握住”均不符合语境,put“放”,主语是it指灯泡,应用其被动语态。
8.句意:他正在给这个年轻人另一次机会。
根据上文“Jimmy had let the bulb slip (滑落) through his fingers ”可知,之前吉米摔碎了灯泡,爱迪生再次把新灯泡交给他,是给了他第二次机会,chance“机会”符合语境,hand“手”、reason“原因”和talk“谈话”均不符合语境。
9.句意:正如一句谚语所说:“我们生存的必要条件不是铭记的能力,恰恰相反,是遗忘的能力。”
根据“but its very opposite, the power to forget”可知,forget“遗忘”的对应面是remember“铭记”。receive“接收”、keep“保持”和improve“提高”均不符合语境。
10.句意:人生太过短暂,没有人是完美的。
根据下文“If we can forgive those who have hurt us, we will have a better life.”可知,要原谅伤害过我们的人,正因为没有人是完美无缺的,才需要彼此包容,perfect“完美的”符合语境,strong“强壮的”、nice“漂亮的”和bad“不好的”均不符合语境。

【详解】1.句意:他说每一位伟人都拥有独特的故事可以分享。
根据“My grandfather often tells me stories”可知此处表达每个人都有专属故事可供分享,story意为“故事”,符合语境。lesson意为“经验教训”,report意为“报告”,problem意为“问题”,均不符合语境。
2.句意:他最喜欢的一则故事是关于一位毕生研究天文学的科学家。
句子是定语从句,先行词scientist指人,关系代词在从句中充当主语,此处选择who。which“指代事物”,whom“在从句作宾语”,whose“作定语”,均不符合句子结构。
3.句意:他没有望远镜、电脑这类现代化工具。
望远镜和电脑都属于观测使用的工具,此处选择tools。books“书籍”,courses“课程”,rules“规章”,均不符合语境。
4.句意:但是他十分勤奋,并且富有耐心。
后文提到坚持观测星空三十余年,体现人物勤恳的品质,此处选择hardworking。lazy“懒惰的”,careless“粗心的”,humorous“幽默的”,均不符合语境。
5.句意:他把自己观测到的一切记录在他的笔记本里。
代词指代文中男性科学家,此处选择his。her“她的”,their“他们的”,our“我们的”,均不符合指代关系。
6.句意:他的著作为中国后续的天文研究奠定了基础。
固定短语lay the foundation意为“奠定基础”,全文使用过去时态,此处选择过去式laid。lied“说谎”,lay“躺,位于”,lain“躺”,均不符合搭配与时态要求。
7.句意:爷爷告诉我这位科学家并非天生伟大。
后文引出爷爷分享的观点内容,需要表达“告知”含义,此处选择told。asked“询问”,ordered“命令”,warned“警告”,均不符合语境。

根据“a strong...to learn”可知是拥有强烈的求知渴望,此处选择desire。doubt“怀疑”,promise“承诺”,chance“机会”,均不符合语境。
9.句意:他的事例告诉我们,任何人都可以成就伟大的事。
文中借助这位科学家的例子启发他人,此处选择example。failure“失败”,mistake“错误”,excuse“借口”,均不符合语境。
10.句意:任何人凭借耐心、专注和勤奋努力都能成就大事。
空格词汇与dedication、hard work并列,属于优秀品质,此处选择patience。creativity“创造力”,luck“运气”,money“金钱”,均不符合语境。

【导语】本文是记叙文,讲述中国著名生物学家钟扬毕生投身植物种子研究,赴藏科考、培养人才的感人事迹。
【详解】1.句意:他毕生致力于研究植物和种子。
固定搭配spend one’s whole life doing sth.表示“毕生做某事”,whole符合语义。common普通的、western西方的、valuable珍贵的,均不符合搭配逻辑。
2.句意:他出生于1964年,15岁时就考上了大学。
后文“There, he studied radio engineering”提到在学校学习无线电工程,说明此处是进入大学,entered符合语境。dropped out of辍学、refused拒绝、left离开,均和后文在校学习的内容矛盾。
3.句意:在那里,他学习无线电工程,后来对植物产生了兴趣。
固定搭配become interested in表示“对……感兴趣”,符合他后续从事植物研究的背景。necessary必要的、creative有创造力的、brave勇敢的,均无法和in构成对应搭配。
4.句意:对他来说,对抗严寒天气和高海拔环境是十分困难的。
后文提到他需要直面恶劣环境,说明这件事难度很高,difficult符合描述。important重要的、easy简单的、helpful有帮助的,均不符合恶劣环境下的实际情况。
5.句意:他有时会生病,但始终坚持工作。
在高寒高海拔的恶劣环境下,人容易身体不适生病,sick符合场景逻辑。hungry饥饿的、wounded受伤的、tired疲惫的,均不是高寒高海拔环境下最典型的身体反应,也无原文依据支撑。
6.句意:钟扬知道在开展重要工作时,最好让更多人参与进来。
后文“He began a programme to find and train local students”提到他开设项目培养当地学生,说明他要吸纳更多人加入工作,include符合语义。refuse拒绝、spread传播、discover发现,均和后文培养人才的行为相悖。
7.句意:他开设了一个项目,寻找并培养当地学生成为科学家。
这些学生是参与植物科研工作的,所以要培养成科学家,scientists符合职业定位。soldiers士兵、guards保安、historians历史学家,均和科研工作属性不符。
8.句意:他和他的团队一起,从约1000种植物中收集了超过4000万颗种子。
前文“In 2001, Zhong Yang began his travels across Xizang to collect seeds.”提到他赴藏的目的是收集种子,collected对应前文的collect seeds表述。discovered发现、designed设计、developed研发,均不符合采集种子的动作。
9.句意:钟扬留下的不仅仅是庞大的种子藏品。
他多年收集的大量种子构成了一份藏品,collection对应前文收集种子的成果。exploration探索、knowledge知识、curiosity好奇心,均无法指代大量种子的集合。
10.句意:我的学生们会在科研的道路上继续前行,我们收集的种子可能在数百年后生根发芽。
全文核心是钟扬从事植物科学研究,scientific research是固定搭配表示“科研”,符合语境。discovery发现、exploration探索、thinking思考,均不符合对应固定搭配与核心主题。

【导语】本文是一篇人物传记类记叙文,介绍屠呦呦的生平、研究青蒿素的历程及其科学贡献,突出她坚持实验、以身试药的科研精神。
【详解】1.句意:屠呦呦是一位伟大的科学家,她在2015年获得了诺贝尔奖。
先行词“Tu Youyou”指人,在定语从句中作主语;时间状语“in 2015”为过去时间点,谓语动词需用一般过去时“received”。B“receiver”为名词“接收者”,不能作谓语;C“receives”为一般现在时,时间不符;D“receiving”为现在分词,不能作谓语。
2.句意:在20世纪60年代,一种严重的疾病正在夺走许多人的生命。
此处表示疾病夺走生命,“was taking”构成过去进行时,表示“正在夺走”;“take one’s life”为固定搭配,意为“夺走生命”。A“saving”意为“拯救”,C“protecting”意为“保护”,D“changing”意为“改变”,均与“夺命”的语境不符。

8.句意:为了确保药物安全,屠呦呦和另外两位研究人员自愿在自己身上试验。
“volunteer to do”意为“自愿做某事”,体现她的奉献精神。A“refused”(拒绝)、B“forgot”(忘记)、D“decided”(决定)均不如“volunteered”贴切。
9.句意:屠呦呦的工作表明,坚持和创造力能带来伟大的发现。
根据前文“never gave up”及数百次实验,可知体现的是坚持不懈的精神。空格与“creativity”并列,需填名词表示“坚持、毅力”;D“perseverance”符合她在数百次失败后仍不放弃的精神。A“laziness”(懒惰)语义相反,B“fear”(恐惧)和C“intelligence”(智力)虽相关,但不直接体现“坚持”主题。
10.句意:她是我们所有人的真正英雄。
根据“saved millions of lives”及伟大贡献,可知她是英雄,用“hero”(英雄)最贴切。B“teacher”(老师)、C“writer”(作家)、D“leader”(领导者)均无法概括她作为科学家的伟大形象。

【导语】本文介绍了“杂交水稻之父”袁隆平的生平事迹、科研成就及其不懈奋斗和乐于奉献的精神,强调了其工作对解决全球粮食问题的巨大贡献,并激励人们坚持努力以创造价值。
【详解】1.句意:袁隆平,被誉为“杂交水稻之父”,是一位伟大的科学家,他毕生致力于改善农业和养活世界各地的人们。
空前的“devoted his life to”中“to”为介词,后接动名词作宾语,故用improving。
2.句意:袁隆平出生于1930年,成长于中国面临严重粮食短缺的时期。
先行词为“a time”(时间),定语从句“China faced serious food shortages”中主谓宾完整,缺时间状语,故用关系副词when。which/that在从句中作主语或宾语,where表地点,均不合。
3.句意:他看到许多人因饥饿而受苦,这使他决心找到增产水稻的方法。
固定搭配“see sb. doing”表示“看到某人正在做某事”,强调当时的状态,故用suffering。suffer为原形(用于see sb. do表全过程),to suffer为不定式,suffered为过去分词,均不适用于此处语境。
4.句意:经过多年努力,他在20世纪70年代成功培育出杂交水稻。
空后为动词“developed”,需用副词修饰,successfully“成功地”符合。
5.句意:这一突破大大提高了水稻产量,并帮助解决了数百万人的粮食问题。
空前为动词短语“increased rice production”,需用副词greatly表示程度“极大地”。great为形容词,greater/greatest为比较级/最高级,均不能修饰动词。
6.句意:袁隆平从不满足于自己的成就。
固定搭配“be satisfied with”意为“对……满意”,介词with不可替换。
7.句意:他曾说:“我有一个梦想,即水稻长得像高粱一样高,谷粒像花生一样大。”
先行词“dream”后接同位语从句,从句成分完整,且内容即为梦想的具体内容,应用连接词that引导(不可省略)。which引导定语从句需在从句中作成分,when/where为关系副词,均不符。
8.句意:他还花大量时间教导年轻科学家,并与他们分享知识。
固定搭配“spend time (in) doing sth.”意为“花费时间做某事”,故用teaching。
9.句意:他是一位英雄,他的工作让世界变得更美好。
先行词“hero”与空后“work”构成所属关系,意为“英雄的工作”,故用关系代词whose(名词性物主代词,作定语)。which指物,who指人(作主语/宾语),whom指人(作宾语),均无法表示所属。
10.句意:他的故事教会我们,如果我们努力工作且永不放弃,我们就能真正改变世界。
前后句为条件关系,“努力工作”是“能改变世界”的条件,故用if引导条件状语从句。because表因果,although表让步,unless表“除非”,均不符合逻辑。

根据下文“He sometimes fell sick”可知他在艰苦环境中生病,说明工作“困难”,应选用difficult。easy“容易的”、interesting“有趣的”、exciting“令人兴奋的”均不符合“艰苦环境”的语境。
5.句意:他有时会生病,但他总是继续工作。
前后为转折关系:虽然生病,但坚持工作,应用but表示“但是”。or“或者”、so“所以”、because“因为”均不符合逻辑。
6.句意:钟扬明白开展重要工作时,最好吸纳更多人参与进来。
根据下文“He began a programme to find and train local students”可知他招募并培训当地学生,说明“包括”更多人,应选用include。refuse“拒绝”、avoid“避免”、stop“停止”均与“扩大团队”的语境相反。
7.句意:他启动了一个项目来寻找和培训当地学生进行实地研究。

【导语】本文讲述戚继光抗倭护国、牛顿好奇探索发现万有引力的故事,告诉我们要勤于提问、探索新知。
【详解】1.句意:戚继光是明朝的一位民族英雄。
空处需要填入名词作表语,后文交代他抗击倭寇、守护百姓,可知该空要填代表受人敬仰的人物的单词。leader“领袖”,hero“英雄”,soldier“士兵”,officer“军官”。hero“英雄”符合人物定位,其余词汇不符合语境。
2.句意:他年少参军,征战了很多次。
空前为joined,结合后文多次作战的内容,可判断此处是加入军队。army“军队”,navy“海军”,air force“空军”,police“警察”。固定搭配join the army意为“参军”,贴合打仗语境,其余词汇不合适。
3.句意:他是一位有才干的将军,也撰写兵法相关书籍。
空格引导定语从句修饰先行词general,从句缺少主语。which指代事物,who指代人且可作主语,whom指代人只可作宾语,what不能引导定语从句,因此选择who。
4.句意:他擅长训练士兵,带领一支强悍的军队。
空前固定搭配be good at后接动名词,后文出现a strong army,说明此处和培育士兵有关。training“训练”,fighting“打斗”,reading“阅读”,writing“写作”。training符合打造强军的语境,其余词义不符。
5.句意:他的军队被誉为 “戚家军”。
结合“Army of Qi”是军队美称,需要搭配固定短语。remembered“被记住”,forgotten“被遗忘”,honored“尊崇”,made“制作”。be honored as意为“被誉为”,更契合军队获得美称的语境,其他均不符。
6.句意:牛顿对大自然很好奇,提出了很多问题。
后文“asked many questions”是关键线索,说明对自然有好奇心。positive“积极的”,curious“好奇的”,brave“勇敢的”,creative“有创造力的”。be curious about意为“对……好奇”,和不断提问对应,其余单词不能构成该搭配。
7.句意:他想知道物体为什么会垂直下落。
前文苹果砸到脑袋,触发了他的思考疑惑。wondered体现内心疑惑思考,贴合场景;believed“相信”,knew“知道”,agreed“同意”,均不符合。
8.句意:这份发现的一部分来自他的好奇心和刻苦努力。
结合常识,一项科学发现由多重因素促成,part of表示“一部分”符合语境,All“全部”,None“毫无”,Most“大部分”,均不符。
9.句意:他的故事告诉我们,我们应该永远不要停止提问。
本句是总结道理、给出劝告,should用于提建议、讲道理,符合句子语气;can“能够”,must“必须”,would“将会”,均不符。

根据“once faced hunger and hard conditions”可知是童年经历,应用“childhood”。kingdom(王国)、calendar(日历)、bank(银行)均不符。
4.句意:牛顿生活在几百年前的一个特殊时期。
“hundreds of years ago”表示时间,应用“period”(时期)。century(世纪)虽为时间,但前文已有“hundreds of years”,更侧重“时代阶段”,故选period更贴合。
5.句意:许多人想知道他是否能取得如此多的成就。
“wonder whether”表示“想知道是否……”,引导宾语从句。forever(永远)、above all(首要的是)均不作引导词。
6.句意:丝绸之路连接了西域和西方国家,它助力文化在整个国家传播。
根据前文“ancient China, during the Warring States Period”及“that period”的语境,此处指“整个国家”,应用“nation”。soldier(士兵)、dynasty(朝代)、seed(种子)不合均与丝绸之路无关。
7.句意:她进行了一次穿越大西洋的长途飞行。
阿梅莉亚·埃尔哈特是飞行员,应选“flight”(飞行)。airway(航线)为名词,但前文已有“took a long”,固定搭配“take a flight”;radio(无线电)、disease(疾病)均不符。

9.句意:对人们来说,面对困难时坚持下去是必要的。
“It is necessary for people to...”表示“对人们来说……是必要的”。inspiring(鼓舞人心的)、brave(勇敢的)虽为褒义,但此处强调“必要性”;scientific(科学的)不合语境。

【导语】本文主要讲述了霍金面对困难的态度,强调积极心态的重要性,鼓励青少年克服障碍,坚持梦想。
【详解】1.句意:当我们阅读关于斯蒂芬·霍金的文章时,会发现他远比大多数遇到小困难的人更具鼓舞力。
根据“far more…than”可知,此处需填形容词,修饰主语Hawking表示他给人的感觉,应用inspiring。inspire为动词原形;inspired“品质优秀的”;inspiration为名词,均不符。
2.句意:他的疾病几乎剥夺了他所有的肌肉活动能力,使他的生活比普通人困难得多。
根据“much…than”可知,此处需填形容词比较级,hard的比较级为harder。hard为原级;hardest为最高级;the hardest为最高级前加the,均不符。
3.句意:他经历的痛苦远比其他科学家多,但他却更加愿意继续研究。
句中出现than,far more suffering表示“多得多的苦难”,符合语义。many“许多”,most“最”,much“非常”,均不符。
4.句意:他经历的痛苦远比其他科学家多,但他却更加愿意继续研究。

根据上下文可知,“积极的人生态度”是众多品质中最重要的,应用最高级most important。important为原级;more important为比较级;less important为“更不重要的”,均不符。
7.句意:如果我们让困难挡在面前,所有的努力都将变得毫无意义。
根据“let troubles”可知,let sb./sth. do为固定搭配,后接动词原形,stand符合。stands为第三人称单数;stood为过去式;standing为现在分词,均不符。
8.句意:如果我们让困难挡在面前,所有的努力都将变得毫无意义。
根据“If we let troubles stand in our way”可知,被困难阻挡会导致努力失去意义,应用meaningless(毫无意义的)。meaningful为“有意义的”;useful为“有用的”;useless为“无用的”,但此处强调“意义”而非“用处”,meaningless更贴切。
9.句意:我们应始终克服一切困难,不断为自己的梦想贡献力量。
根据“should always”可知,情态动词后接动词原形,overcome符合。overcomes为第三人称单数;overcame为过去式;overcoming为现在分词,均不符。
10.句意:我们应始终克服一切困难,不断为自己的梦想贡献力量。
根据“make contributions to”为固定搭配,意为“为……做贡献”,contribution需用复数形式contributions。contribution为单数;contribute为动词原形;contributing为现在分词,均不符。

【详解】
1. 句意:她花费大量时间开展疟疾治疗的医学研究。
固定句型 spend time doing sth. 表示 “花费时间做某事”,文章讲述过去发生的事情,动词使用过去式 spent。wasted(浪费)、forgot(忘记)、remembered(记得),均和屠呦呦潜心科研的语境不符。
2.句意:他们遭遇无数次失败,但是从未失去希望。
连词 but 表转折,说明即便屡屡失败,团队依旧没有放弃。lose hope 是固定短语 “失去希望”,时态为一般过去时,用 lost。needed(需要)、found(找到)、had(拥有)不符合句意。
3.句意:她想要研制出有效的药物,挽救病人的生命。
结合医学研究、药物的语境,药物的作用是拯救生命。lives 意为 “生命”。money(金钱)、houses(房子)、time(时间)和医疗救治的主题无关。
4.句意:屠呦呦曾说,即便取得巨大成功,人依旧要保持谦逊。
根据下文 “winning the Nobel Prize(获得诺贝尔奖)”,诺贝尔奖代表巨大的成功。success 表示 “成功”。trouble(麻烦)、pressure(压力)、luck(运气),不符合语境。
5.句意:她最看重的是自己的研究是否能够帮助普通人。
屠呦呦研发青蒿素,目的就是造福、帮助普通老百姓。help 意为 “帮助”。hurt(伤害)、surprise(使惊讶)、feel(感受)和人物奉献的品格相悖。
6.句意:他们有着为公众服务的明确目标。
结合全文伟人品质,伟大人物心怀大众,拥有清晰的奋斗目标。purpose 意为 “目标,目的”。excuse(借口)、doubt(怀疑)语义消极;hope 侧重 “希望”,不能表达内心确立的奋斗方向。
7.句意:为了公共利益,他们甘愿放弃个人的安逸舒适。
give up 固定短语,含义 “放弃”。伟人会舍弃个人安逸,为集体、大众做贡献。look for(寻找)、wait for(等待)、get up(起床)语义不通。
8.句意:许多年轻人读完他们的故事之后备受鼓舞。
榜样人物的事迹会激励青少年。encouraged 形容词,“受到鼓舞的”。bored(感到无聊的)、relaxed(放松的)、excited(兴奋激动的)不符合文章逻辑。
9.句意:如果我们坚持向榜样学习,我们就可以磨炼更强大的意志,去战胜自己遇到的困难。
strong will 固定搭配,意为 “坚强的意志”,战胜困难需要依靠强大意志。fear(恐惧)、pride(骄傲)、honesty(诚实),不能和 overcome difficulties(克服困难)匹配。
10.句意:慢慢地,在我们自己的生活中,我们也可以成为能够激励别人的人。
文章开头 “Inspiring people have special spirits that touch our hearts” 点明主题 inspiring(鼓舞人心的)。inspire 动词,意为 “激励、鼓舞”。trouble(给…… 制造麻烦)、control(控制)语义错误;help(帮助)不能呼应全文核心词 inspiring。

2.句意:当他长大后,他得到了一个去瑞士学习的机会。
他长大后获得了一个去瑞士学习的某种事物。“chance”表示“机会”,“get a chance to do sth.”表示“得到做某事的机会”,符合语境,应选用“chance”。place”意为“地方”,不符合逻辑;“job”意为“工作”,去瑞士是学习不是工作;“task”意为“任务”,此处并非指任务。
3.句意:他想念他的祖国——中国,并且想为它做一些了不起的事。
他没留在国外,是因为对自己国家有某种情感,想为国家做贡献。“missed”表示“想念”,符合他想念中国进而回国的语境,应选用missed”。“left”意为“离开”,逻辑不符;“visited”意为“参观”,“forgot”意为“忘记”,与文意相悖。
4.句意:在从事嫦娥一号项目工作时,尽管有诸多问题,他和他的团队也没有放弃。

“Can’t you cut down on tutoring Sophie just 3 ?” the assistant asked. “No, I’m still thinking of her candy,” Einstein said with a smile. Was her candy so 4 ? The assistant didn’t understand.You know, Sophie 5 Einstein only half of her candy.
That day, seeing Einstein come back from Sophie’s home 6 , the assistant asked him why he was happy. Einstein told him, “Today, Sophie’s teacher thought highly of her 7 , saying that she had an excellent tutor. The young girl was also 8 pleased that she awarded me a handful of candy, which made me particularly happy.” Later, in Einstein’s diary, people 9 read that he thought much of such a thing.

【导语】本文讲述爱因斯坦拒绝高额演讲报酬,坚持辅导女孩Sophie的故事。对他而言,女孩的笑容和糖果比金钱更珍贵,滋养了他的生命。
【详解】1.句意:有人想邀请你周末做一场演讲。
根据语境和固定搭配make a speech,可知此处是邀请去“做演讲”。speech“演讲”,符合题意。space(空间)、speed(速度)、spread(传播)均无法搭配 make a,排除。
2.句意:爱因斯坦拒绝了,说要去辅导Sophie。
根据后文他选择去辅导而非接受报酬,可知他“拒绝”了邀请。refused“拒绝”,符合题意。reduced(减少)、received(收到)不符合语境;replied(回复)只表示回应,体现不出拒绝的态度。
3.句意:你就不能减少辅导Sophie 一次吗?
根据“just”及语境,just once 意为“就一次”,符合助手请求减少频率的语境。once“一次”,符合题意。even(甚至)、later(后来)、soon(不久)语义不通。
4.句意:她的糖果真那么甜吗?
根据后文“sweetest spring”及糖果特性,此处指糖果的“甜”及心意的甜。sweet“甜的”符合题意。expensive(昂贵的)big(大的)、 valuable(珍贵、有价值)语义不符。
5.句意:Sophie只付给爱因斯坦一半糖果。
根据主语Sophie及宾语Einstein,pay sb. sth. 意为“付给某人某物”,paid,pay“支付”的过去式,符合语境。cost(花费,主语为物品);spent(花费时间 / 金钱);took(分给 / 拿给某人某物)搭配不符。
6.句意:看到爱因斯坦开心地从Sophie家回来。
根据后文助手问“why he was happy”,可知他是“开心地”回来。happily“开心地”,符合题意。sadly(难过地)、hardly(几乎不)语义相反;kindly(友善地)不能形容回家的状态。
7.句意:老师高度评价她的进步。
根据辅导语境及老师表扬,通常指学生的“进步”。progress“进步”,符合题意。success(成功)程度过重;subject(学科)、courage(勇气)和辅导带来的变化无关。
8.句意:女孩如此高兴以至于奖给我糖果。
根据“pleased that”,构成so...that... 结构,意为“如此……以至于……”。very不接that从句。so符合题意。very不能搭配 that;such后接名词短语;too 搭配to do,不接that从句。
9.句意:人们再次读到他对这件事的看法。
根据“Later, in Einstein’s diary”,表示后来人们在日记中“再次”读到此事。once again“再一次,又一次”符合题意。in trouble(陷入麻烦)、in surprise (惊讶地、出乎意料地)、at last(最终)逻辑不符。
10.句意:女孩阳光般的笑容和糖果。
根据“sunny”及前文爱因斯坦微笑的语境,sunny smile意为“阳光般的笑容”,符合主旨,选smile。smell(气味)、tears(泪水)负面;taste(味道)无法用 sunny 修饰。

Passage 1
Everybody knows that Edison is a famous scientist who invented the electric light bulb. But maybe fewer people 1 about his being kind and forgiving (原谅) towards others. The following is a true story about him.
At one point in his experiments, Edison had at last 2 a working bulb—the final result of hundreds of trials (实验). It was the first electric light bulb that had ever been made, and Edison was full of 3 . He had dreamed of this moment for years. “Take it upstairs, Jimmy,” he said, handing it to his assistant (助手), Jimmy Price. 4 there was a crash, and Edison turned around to see that his precious bulb had fallen to the ground and broken into pieces on the floor. Jimmy had let the bulb slip (滑落) through his fingers 5 . Edison said nothing, but everyone could imagine what his thoughts were. He went back to his worktable and set to work once more to make another 6 .
A few days later, a new bulb was finally ready. There it 7 on the table in front of its maker, fully completed. Then Edison did a very big thing. With a smile, he handed the new bulb to Jimmy. “Be careful this time,” he said. He was giving the young man another 8 . Jimmy did not break it, so we have millions of bulbs in the world today.
As a proverb says, “Not the power to 9 , but its very opposite, the power to forget, is a necessary condition for our existence.” Life is too short and no one is 10 . If we can forgive those who have hurt us, we will have a better life.
