We used glue to 　　　　　　　 (粘) the broken pieces together. 【答案】stick 【解析】句意：我们用胶水把碎片粘在一起。stick“粘”，动词；use sth. to do sth.“用某物做某事”，故空格处应用动词原形。故填stick。 3.

Please r　　　　　　　　 the stickers from the wall. 【答案】remove##emove 【解析】句意：请把贴纸从墙上撕下来。本句为祈使句，Please后接动词原形，结合首字母“r”和“from the wall”，应该是把贴纸从墙上撕下来，符合逻辑的词是remove，意为“移除、撕掉”；固定搭配remove...from...“把……从……取下”。 5. Too much rain will r　　　　　　　　 in the failure of paper-making experiments. 【答案】result##esult 【解析】句意：过多的雨水将会导致造纸实验失败。根据语境及首字母提示可知，固定搭配result in（导致）符合语境，will后接动词原形，故填result。 6.

Mind maps are 　　　　　　　　 (wide) used in our English class. 【答案】widely 【解析】句意：思维导图在我们的英语课上被广泛使用。wide“广泛的”，形容词，此处修饰动词“used”，应用副词形式。形容词变副词，直接在词尾加“-ly”，即widely，表示“广泛地”。 8.

The 　　　　　　　　 (stick) notes were invented by accident. 【答案】sticky 【解析】句意：便利贴是偶然间被发明的。根据“The…notes”可知此处缺少形容词修饰名词“notes”，stick的形容词形式为sticky，固定短语sticky notes“便利贴”。 二、完成句子 1. 他们负担不起去度假的费用。 They can’t 　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　 on vacation. 【答案】① afford    ② to    ③ go 【解析】原句中“负担不起做某事”是关键词，固定搭配afford to do sth.表示“负担得起做某事”；情态动词can’t后接动词原形afford，go on vacation表示去度假。 2. 我们是社会性存在，这意味着我们需要现实的友谊和陪伴。    We are 　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　, which means we need 　　　　　　　　-　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　 and 　　　　　　　　. 【答案】① social    ② beings    ③ real    ④ life    ⑤ friendship    ⑥ company 【解析】原句中“社会性存在”，“实时的”，“友谊”和“陪伴”是关键词。表示“社会性存在”的短语为“social being”，第一空格在“are”后，应用复数形式“social beings”；表示“现实的”且用“-”连接的词为“real-life”；第五空格和第六空格为名词作宾语，表示“友谊”的名词为“friendship”，表示“陪伴”的名词为“company”，此处两个词均表示抽象概念，为不可数名词，用原形即可。故填social；beings；real；life；friendship；company。 3. produce/product/production This company pays much attention to its 　　　　　　　　.

B     10. B      【解析】本文主要讲述了便利贴的发明过程。科学家意外发明弱胶水，后被用于标记歌谱，最终成为伟大发明，启示我们要善于把握意外机遇。 (1)题： 句意：它是一项有用的发明，却源自一场意外。 根据后文“Today, sticky notes are used everywhere”可知，便利贴现在被广泛使用，说明它是“有用的”，useful“有用的”符合语境。useless“无用的”、expensive“昂贵的”、dangerous“危险的”均不符合语境。 (2)题： 句意：1968年，一位科学家正尝试研制一种强力胶水。 根据“create a very strong glue”可知，科学家在实验室里是在“尝试”制造胶水，trying“尝试”符合语境。planning“计划”、learning“学习”、failing“失败”不符合句意。 (3)题： 句意：然而，他做出的胶水黏性一点都不强。 前文想造强胶水，后文造出了弱胶水，前后存在转折关系，However“然而”符合语境。Therefore“因此”表因果，Instead“代替”，Otherwise“否则”均不适合此处转折。 (4)题： 句意：它能粘住东西，但又能被轻易揭下来。 通常胶水粘住后不易移除，此处强调能粘住但又能移除的特殊性，存在逻辑转折，but“但是”符合语境。and表并列，or表选择，so表结果，不符合逻辑。 (5)题： 句意：起初，没人知道该用它做什么。 固定搭配what to do with sth.表示“如何处理某物”，应选用what。how不和do with搭配，when“何时”、where“哪里”语义不通。 (6)题： 句意：多年后，另一位男士想给歌本的页码做标记。 根据后文“The paper stayed in the book”可知，是为了在书中做标记，通常是标记“页码”以便查找，pages“页”符合语境。covers“封面”、lines“线条”、words“单词”不符合语境。 (7)题： 句意：他想起了这种黏性不强的胶水，决定试试看。 根据“decided to try it”可知，他是先“想起”了之前的发明才去尝试，remembered“想起、记得”符合逻辑。forgot“忘记”、sold“售卖”、bought“购买”与文意不符。 (8)题： 句意：纸片能固定在书上，又可以被取下来，不会损坏书页。 根据便利贴的特性及前文“removed easily”可知，此处指可以被“移除”，removed“移除”符合语境。added“增加”、covered“覆盖”、hidden“隐藏”不符合文意。 (9)题： 句意：这个故事表明有时最好的想法源于错误。 便利贴是伟大的发明，所以是“最好的”想法，best“最好的”符合褒义语境。worst“最差的”、easiest“最简单的”、hardest“最难的”不符合语境。 (10)题： 句意：我们应该始终对意外的机会持开放态度。 固定搭配be open to表示“对……持开放态度/乐于接受”，open“开放的”符合语境。able“能够”、ready“准备好的”、close“亲近的”不符合搭配与句意。 一、阅读单选 A篇 CES 2024, the world’s most fantastic technology event, was held in Las Vegas from January 9 to 13.

However, 17-year-old Emma Rodriguez from Miami is changing that image. She recently invented a low-cost water purification (净化) device that is now being used in several remote villages in South America. Emma’s journey started two years ago during a geography lesson. Her teacher showed a video of children drinking dirty water, which led to serious health problems. Emma was shocked. “I thought, ‘This isn’t fair,’” she recalled. “I wanted to do something to help.” She began researching water purification methods online. Most existing devices were too expensive or required electricity, which many villages lacked. Emma decided to focus on a solar-powered solution. Using a second-hand microscope she bought with her pocket money, she studied how UV (紫外线) light kills bacteria. She then spent months designing a small, portable device shaped like a water bottle. The biggest challenge was the cost. To keep it affordable, Emma used recycled plastic and a cheap UV LED light. She tested over fifty designs. Once, her device leaked (漏水) during a test, soaking her notes. “I felt like crying,” she admitted, “but I knew giving up wasn’t an option.” Finally, she succeeded. Her device can clean one liter of water in just 15 minutes using only sunlight. It costs less than $5 to make. An international charity organization noticed her work and helped her send 500 units to Colombia. Local residents say the device has greatly improved their health. Emma has no plans to patent her invention for profit. Instead, she has open-sourced her design online, allowing anyone to download and produce it for free. “Ideas should be shared, especially when they can save lives,” she says. “I hope more teens realize that age is just a number. If you see a problem, you can be the one to solve it.” 1. What inspired Emma to invent the water purification device? A. A lesson about health problems. B. A video shown in a geography class. C. A visit to remote villages in Colombia. D. An article about solar energy technology. 2. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. How Emma solved the funding problem. B. Why Emma chose UV light for her device. C. The process of Emma’s invention and design. D. The importance of using recycled materials. 3. What does the underlined phrase “giving up wasn’t an option” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. She didn’t have time to rest. B. She didn’t have the right tools. C. She was determined to continue. D. She was allowed to stop working. 4. Which of the following words can best describe Emma? A. Humorous and quiet. B. Honest and friendly. C. Creative and selfless. D. Brave and noisy. 5. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Emma will start a company to sell her device. B. Emma wants to keep her invention a secret. C. Emma believes teenagers can make a difference. D. Emma plans to study abroad to learn more about water. 【答案】1. B     2. C     3. C     4. C     5. C      【解析】本文讲述了一个17岁女孩Emma受课堂视频触动，研发出低成本太阳能净水装置支援南美乡村，她选择公开设计方案免费分享，并鼓励青少年勇于动手解决现实难题。 (1)题： 根据原文第二段“Her teacher showed a video of children drinking dirty water, which led to serious health problems.

If you see a problem, you can be the one to solve it.”可知Emma相信青少年也能够有所作为、带来改变。 一、选词填空 （来源:2024年四川省凉山州中考英语真题）阅读短文，从方框中选择适当的词并用其正确形式填空，使短文通顺、意思完整，并将其答案写在答题卡上相应的位置。每词限用一次。 afford       by       everything       easy             information       make       only             smart       they             when With the development of science and technology, our life is becoming more and more convenient. It seems that 　　　　1　　　　 has been reinvented and greatly improved. But there is one thing unlike them. It’s a blind walking stick. It was invented over 100 years ago and has been used 　　　　2　　　　 many blind people for a long time. However, it had remained unchanged until an engineer named Kursat decided 　　　　3　　　　 a change. Kursat is blind. He deeply understands the difficulties and challenges that the blind face. He put some technical knowledge into his invention and invented a 　　　　4　　　　 stick. He hoped his invention would help the blind. The smart stick uses built-in speakers and different sensors (传感器) to warn about possible dangers. It helps blind people know about the environment around 　　　　5　　　　 by using modern technology. It makes their travel much 　　　　6　　　　 than before. The stick is priced at around $500. It is less than half the price of most smart phones. Most people can 　　　　7　　　　 it.

However, 17-year-old Emma Rodriguez from Miami is changing that image. She recently invented a low-cost water purification (净化) device that is now being used in several remote villages in South America. Emma’s journey started two years ago during a geography lesson. Her teacher showed a video of children drinking dirty water, which led to serious health problems. Emma was shocked. “I thought, ‘This isn’t fair,’” she recalled. “I wanted to do something to help.” She began researching water purification methods online. Most existing devices were too expensive or required electricity, which many villages lacked. Emma decided to focus on a solar-powered solution. Using a second-hand microscope she bought with her pocket money, she studied how UV (紫外线) light kills bacteria. She then spent months designing a small, portable device shaped like a water bottle. The biggest challenge was the cost. To keep it affordable, Emma used recycled plastic and a cheap UV LED light. She tested over fifty designs. Once, her device leaked (漏水) during a test, soaking her notes. “I felt like crying,” she admitted, “but I knew giving up wasn’t an option.” Finally, she succeeded. Her device can clean one liter of water in just 15 minutes using only sunlight. It costs less than $5 to make. An international charity organization noticed her work and helped her send 500 units to Colombia. Local residents say the device has greatly improved their health. Emma has no plans to patent her invention for profit. Instead, she has open-sourced her design online, allowing anyone to download and produce it for free. “Ideas should be shared, especially when they can save lives,” she says. “I hope more teens realize that age is just a number. If you see a problem, you can be the one to solve it.” 1. What inspired Emma to invent the water purification device? A. A lesson about health problems. B. A video shown in a geography class. C. A visit to remote villages in Colombia. D. An article about solar energy technology. 2. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. How Emma solved the funding problem. B. Why Emma chose UV light for her device. C. The process of Emma’s invention and design. D. The importance of using recycled materials. 3. What does the underlined phrase “giving up wasn’t an option” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. She didn’t have time to rest. B. She didn’t have the right tools. C. She was determined to continue. D. She was allowed to stop working. 4. Which of the following words can best describe Emma? A. Humorous and quiet. B. Honest and friendly. C. Creative and selfless. D. Brave and noisy. 5. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Emma will start a company to sell her device. B. Emma wants to keep her invention a secret. C. Emma believes teenagers can make a difference. D. Emma plans to study abroad to learn more about water. 一、选词填空 （来源:2024年四川省凉山州中考英语真题）阅读短文，从方框中选择适当的词并用其正确形式填空，使短文通顺、意思完整，并将其答案写在答题卡上相应的位置。每词限用一次。 afford       by       everything       easy             information       make       only             smart       they             when With the development of science and technology, our life is becoming more and more convenient. It seems that 　　　　1　　　　 has been reinvented and greatly improved. But there is one thing unlike them. It’s a blind walking stick. It was invented over 100 years ago and has been used 　　　　2　　　　 many blind people for a long time. However, it had remained unchanged until an engineer named Kursat decided 　　　　3　　　　 a change. Kursat is blind. He deeply understands the difficulties and challenges that the blind face. He put some technical knowledge into his invention and invented a 　　　　4　　　　 stick. He hoped his invention would help the blind. The smart stick uses built-in speakers and different sensors (传感器) to warn about possible dangers. It helps blind people know about the environment around 　　　　5　　　　 by using modern technology. It makes their travel much 　　　　6　　　　 than before. The stick is priced at around $500. It is less than half the price of most smart phones. Most people can 　　　　7　　　　 it. In the future, this invention is going to make a big difference to more blind people. “It will not 　　　　8　　　　 change my life, but also the life of other people.” Kursat said, “These days, we are talking about flying cars, but the blind have been using just simple sticks. As a blind person, 　　　　9　　　　 I am at the subway station, I don’t know which is my exit. I don’t know which bus is coming or which stores are around me.
