DIY means “do-it-yourself”. Lots of people are crazy about DIY and enjoy hands-on fun. It brings people lots of joy.
I love DIY very much. Last weekend, I decided to make a paper rose. Before starting, I read all the 1 carefully. I prepared coloured paper, glue, tape and brushes. At first, I thought it would be easy. But soon I made several 2 . I folded the paper in the wrong way and everything was in a mess.
I wanted to give up. But my father told me not to stop. He said I 3 be patient and try again. I followed his words and practised slowly. Finally, I finished my first paper rose. It looked beautiful.
DIY teaches us many useful skills. When we make things by ourselves, we learn to solve problems. Sometimes we meet a power cut or broken tools. We need to think of new 4 to finish our work.
We can also reduce waste through DIY. We can reuse old cloth and paper 5 buying new things all the time. Not only can we save money, 6 we can protect the environment too.
If you plan to try DIY, here is some advice. You 7 prepare all tools first. You’d better wear gloves to keep your hands safe. Don’t work too quickly. The more carefully you work, the 8 your work will look.
DIY is great fun. It is much better than 9 ready-made products from shops. When you finish your work, you will feel proud of 10 . Why not have a try?

【导语】本文围绕DIY手工制作展开,讲述作者自制纸玫瑰的经历,介绍DIY的意义与相关建议。
【详解】1.句意:开始制作前,我仔细阅读了所有制作说明。
Passage 2
根据短文内容,从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选择最佳选项。
根据前文“I decided to make a paper rose”可知,手工制作前需要阅读操作指引,应选用instructions。stories“故事”,news“新闻”,poems“诗歌”,均与手工制作的语境无关。
2.句意:但很快我犯了好几个错误。
根据后文“I folded the paper in the wrong way and everything was in a mess”可知折纸步骤出错,应选用mistakes。friends“朋友”,plans“计划”,dreams“梦想”,均不符合步骤出错的语境。
3.句意:他说我应该有耐心再试一次。
根据后文“try again”可知父亲劝导作者保持耐心,应选用should。shouldn’t“不应该”,needn’t“不必”,can’t“不能”,语义和父亲鼓励的语境相悖。
4.句意:我们需要想出完成作品的新方法。
根据前文“meet a power cut or broken tools”可知遇到困难要寻找解决办法,应选用methods。hobbies“爱好”,subjects“科目”,marks“分数”,均和解决制作难题无关。
5.句意:我们可以重复利用旧布料和纸张,而不是一直购买新物品。
根据前后“reuse old”与“buy new things”存在替代对立关系,应选用instead of。because of“因为”,out of“出于”,lots of“许多”,无法体现二者取舍关系。
6.句意:我们不仅可以省钱,而且还能保护环境。
根据固定搭配not only...but (also)...可知此处用but,应选用but。and“并且”,or“或者”,so“因此”,无法匹配该并列固定句式。
7.句意:你应该先准备好所有工具。
根据后文给出的DIY实操建议,可知此处表达应当提前备好工具,应选用should。may“可以”,can“能够”,could“可以(委婉)”,无法体现建议劝导的语气。
8.句意:你越仔细地操作,你的作品看起来就越好。
根据固定句式“the+比较级,the+比较级”可知此处需要形容词比较级,应选用better。good是原级,best是最高级,well为副词,均不符合语法规则。
9.句意:它比从商店购买成品要好得多。
根据介词than后需要动名词作宾语,应选用buying。buy为动词原形,bought为过去式,buys为第三人称单数,均不能放在介词后。
10.句意:当你完成作品时,你会为你自己感到骄傲。
根据固定搭配feel proud of oneself表示“为自己自豪”,应选用yourself。your是形容词性物主代词,you是人称代词宾格,yours是名词性物主代词,无法构成固定搭配。
先通读下面的短文,掌握其大意,然后在每小题所给的四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

“Why not?” he said and 3 up some more leaves. “They’re totally free, and I think that no one will be a tree as great as me.”

As I was standing there in the costume, the feeling got 6 until I was so uncomfortable, I just had to scratch (挠). When I looked over at Ollie, he was doing the 7 thing “This is the worst.” he said as he moved his body. “I feel like I’m 8 with a million mosquito (蚊子) bites.” “Me too,” I said back. “I have to get out of this costume now.”
At that moment, Mr. Lee called for everyone’s 9 .“The winner of our ‘Be Creative’ costume contest is these two magnificent trees” he announced.

【答案】
1.himself 2.to make 3.bought 4.and 5.colors 6.excited 7.quickly 8.a 9.with 10.more important
【导语】本文主要介绍了卡尔是一个好奇心强且痴迷手工自制的男孩,他经常在哔哩哔哩看各类DIY视频,然后亲自尝试制作。为妈妈生日做了多种颜色的玫瑰,并跟着视频尝试做面包。
【详解】1.句意:他经常在哔哩哔哩上看各种各样的手工教程视频,然后亲自试着动手做。固定搭配do sth. oneself 表示“亲自做某事”,本句主语为He,需反身代词himself。故填himself。
2.句意:去年,妈妈的生日快到了,他决定为妈妈制作几朵特别的玫瑰花。固定用法decide to do sth. 表示“决定做某事”,故空处需动词不定式。故填to make。
3.句意:他从拼多多上买了一些白色塑料玫瑰和特制的化学颜料。根据“Last year”可知,空处描述的是过去的事,时态为一般过去时,谓语动词用过去式。故填bought。
4.句意:他先烧了些开水,把颜料加进去,随后再放入白玫瑰。连接“加颜料”和“放玫瑰”两个并列动作,需连词and。故填and。
5.句意:他反复操作了好几次,做出了各种颜色的玫瑰。different“不同的”后跟名词复数。故填colors。
6.句意:妈妈回到家看到这些花时,激动得一句话都说不出来。was后跟形容词作表语,excite“使兴奋”为动词,需修饰人的形容词excited,意为“兴奋的”。故填excited。
7.句意:在视频的帮助下,他很快就把面团发酵好了。proved为动词,需副词修饰。quick为形容词,其副词为quickly,意为“快速地”。故填quickly。
8.句意:可他犯了个错——把烘烤时间设得太长了。make a mistake“犯了一个错” 为固定搭配。故填a。
9.句意:最后,整间屋子都弥漫着黑烟。固定搭配be filled with意为“充满”。故填with。
10.句意:毕竟,没有什么比安全更重要。根据“than”可知,此句为二者比较,需比较级,is后跟形容词作表语。important“重要的”的比较级为more important。故填more important。
Passage 6
DIY is quite popular in the UK. Lots of stores and supermarkets sell DIY things. If people need 1 (fix) things around their homes, such as 2 (paint) the walls or putting up a new shelf, they will do the jobs by 3 (they). They share DIY stories with their friends. More and more people find the joy of DIY. Sometimes people also DIY to save money. Nowadays, many people don’t have enough money 4 (buy) a big house. They are looking at how they can make their house better when they can’t afford the cost. It is not 5 (surprise) that DIY is so popular.
6 , DIY can be dangerous if you are 7 (care). It’s reported that in just one year, over 230,000 people were hurt when doing DIY in the UK. DIY can bring us lots of fun and help us save some money, but it is not always as 8 (easy) as it is thought to be if we do something difficult. Maybe 9 (factory) should make easier and 10 (safe) things for us to DIY.
【答案】
1.to fix 2.painting 3.themselves 4.to buy 5.surprising 6.However 7.careless 8.easy 9.factories 10.safer
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲了DIY在英国的流行情况及潜在危险,并建议工厂生产更简单安全的DIY用品。
【详解】1.句意:如果人们需要修理家里的东西,比如刷墙或安装新架子,他们会自己动手做这些活。根据“If people need...”可知,need to do sth“需要做某事”,这里表示“需要修理东西”,“fix”为动词原形,符合“need to do”的结构。故填to fix。
2.句意:如果人们需要修理家里的东西,比如刷墙或安装新架子,他们会自己动手做这些活。“such as”用于举例,其后接名词、代词或动名词形式,“paint”为动词,此处需用其动名词形式“painting”,与后面的“putting up”形成并列关系,均表示具体的DIY活动。故填painting。
3.句意:如果人们需要修理家里的东西,比如刷墙或安装新架子,他们会自己动手做这些活。根据“they will do the jobs by...”可知,这里说的是他们自己动手,by oneself“独自,亲自”,这里主语是“they”,对应的反身代词为“themselves”,符合语境。故填themselves。
4.句意:现在,很多人没有足够的钱买大房子。have enough + 名词 + to do sth.“有足够的……去做某事”,此处“to buy”作后置定语,修饰“money”,表示“买大房子的钱”,符合语法和语境。故填to buy。
5.句意:DIY如此受欢迎并不奇怪。此处需要一个形容词作表语,描述事物的性质,“surprise”的形容词形式有“surprising”和“surprised”,“surprising”表示“令人惊讶的”,修饰事物。本句主语是“it”,指代“DIY is so popular”这件事,用“surprising”。故填surprising。
6.句意:然而,如果你不小心,DIY可能会很危险。根据“that DIY is so popular...DIY can be dangerous if you are”可知,前边提到DIY受欢迎、能带来乐趣还能省钱,后边则说DIY有危险,前后为转折关系,且空后有逗号,应用表示转折的副词“However”。故填However。
7.句意:然而,如果你不小心,DIY可能会很危险。根据“DIY can be dangerous”可知,此处应表示“不小心”的状态,“care”的形容词形式是“careful”,其否定形式“careless”符合语境,即“不小心就会有危险”。故填careless。
8.句意:DIY能给我们带来很多乐趣,还能帮我们省些钱,但如果我们做一些有难度的事情,它并不总是像人们想的那么容易。as + 形容词原级 + as“和……一样……”,“easy”为形容词原级,此处表示“不像想的那么容易”,符合语法和语境。故填easy。
9.句意:也许工厂应该生产更简单、更安全的东西供我们DIY使用。根据句中“should make”可知,此处指代的不是某一家工厂,而是泛指所有相关工厂,应用其复数形式“factories”。故填factories。
10.句意:也许工厂应该生产更简单、更安全的东西供我们DIY使用。根据“...should make easier”可知,此处应用“safe”的比较级“safer”,与“easier”形成并列关系,共同修饰“things”,表示“更简单、更安全的东西”。故填safer。
六、选词填空

【详解】1.句意:DIY在英国人中很受欢迎。下文提到许多商店和超市售卖DIY物品,说明DIY在英国人中很受欢迎,主语DIY是单数,用一般现在时,be动词用is,所以填is popular among。
2.句意:人们需要用几样工具将一件件物品组装起来。固定搭配pieces of things表示“一件件物品”,put together pieces of...表示“把零散部件组装起来”,故填pieces。
3.句意:一些电视节目给人们展示如何DIY。此处是“疑问词+不定式”结构,how to DIY表示如何自己动手做,符合电视节目教人们DIY的语境。
4.句意:很多人愿意花假期把家打造成漂亮的“城堡”。a lot of修饰可数/不可数名词,a lot of people表示“很多人”,句首首字母大写。
5.句意:很多人愿意花假期把家打造成漂亮的“城堡”。固定搭配spend time doing sth.,表示“花费时间做某事”,make的动名词形式是making,指花假期把家打造成漂亮的“城堡”。
6.句意:例如,他们喜欢刷墙或者自己安装新淋浴。后文举例说明DIY的行为,用for example,位于句首,首字母大写。
7.句意:例如,他们喜欢刷墙或者自己安装新淋浴。语境是他们自己动手做这些事,主语是they,by oneself变为by themselves。
8.句意:他们与朋友分享DIY经验。固定搭配share sth. with sb.,意为“和某人分享某事”,故填with。

Passage 1

DIY means “do-it-yourself”. Lots of people are crazy about DIY and enjoy hands-on fun. It brings people lots of joy.
I love DIY very much. Last weekend, I decided to make a paper rose. Before starting, I read all the 1 carefully. I prepared coloured paper, glue, tape and brushes. At first, I thought it would be easy. But soon I made several 2 . I folded the paper in the wrong way and everything was in a mess.
I wanted to give up. But my father told me not to stop. He said I 3 be patient and try again. I followed his words and practised slowly. Finally, I finished my first paper rose. It looked beautiful.
DIY teaches us many useful skills. When we make things by ourselves, we learn to solve problems. Sometimes we meet a power cut or broken tools. We need to think of new 4 to finish our work.
We can also reduce waste through DIY. We can reuse old cloth and paper 5 buying new things all the time. Not only can we save money, 6 we can protect the environment too.
If you plan to try DIY, here is some advice. You 7 prepare all tools first. You’d better wear gloves to keep your hands safe. Don’t work too quickly. The more carefully you work, the 8 your work will look.
DIY is great fun. It is much better than 9 ready-made products from shops. When you finish your work, you will feel proud of 10 . Why not have a try?

2.A.friends B.plans C.mistakes D.dreams
3.A.should B.shouldn’t C.needn’t D.can’t

5.A.because of B.instead of C.out of D.lots of
6.A.and B.but C.or D.so
7.A.may B.can C.should D.could
8.A.good B.better C.best D.well
9.A.buy B.bought C.buying D.buys
10.A.yourself B.your C.you D.yours
Passage 2
根据短文内容,从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选择最佳选项。
根据前文“I decided to make a paper rose”可知,手工制作前需要阅读操作指引,应选用instructions。stories“故事”,news“新闻”,poems“诗歌”,均与手工制作的语境无关。
2.句意:但很快我犯了好几个错误。
根据后文“I folded the paper in the wrong way and everything was in a mess”可知折纸步骤出错,应选用mistakes。friends“朋友”,plans“计划”,dreams“梦想”,均不符合步骤出错的语境。
3.句意:他说我应该有耐心再试一次。
根据后文“try again”可知父亲劝导作者保持耐心,应选用should。shouldn’t“不应该”,needn’t“不必”,can’t“不能”,语义和父亲鼓励的语境相悖。
4.句意:我们需要想出完成作品的新方法。
根据前文“meet a power cut or broken tools”可知遇到困难要寻找解决办法,应选用methods。hobbies“爱好”,subjects“科目”,marks“分数”,均和解决制作难题无关。
5.句意:我们可以重复利用旧布料和纸张,而不是一直购买新物品。
根据前后“reuse old”与“buy new things”存在替代对立关系,应选用instead of。because of“因为”,out of“出于”,lots of“许多”,无法体现二者取舍关系。
6.句意:我们不仅可以省钱,而且还能保护环境。
根据固定搭配not only...but (also)...可知此处用but,应选用but。and“并且”,or“或者”,so“因此”,无法匹配该并列固定句式。
7.句意:你应该先准备好所有工具。
根据后文给出的DIY实操建议,可知此处表达应当提前备好工具,应选用should。may“可以”,can“能够”,could“可以(委婉)”,无法体现建议劝导的语气。
8.句意:你越仔细地操作,你的作品看起来就越好。
根据固定句式“the+比较级,the+比较级”可知此处需要形容词比较级,应选用better。good是原级,best是最高级,well为副词,均不符合语法规则。
9.句意:它比从商店购买成品要好得多。
根据介词than后需要动名词作宾语,应选用buying。buy为动词原形,bought为过去式,buys为第三人称单数,均不能放在介词后。
10.句意:当你完成作品时,你会为你自己感到骄傲。
根据固定搭配feel proud of oneself表示“为自己自豪”,应选用yourself。your是形容词性物主代词,you是人称代词宾格,yours是名词性物主代词,无法构成固定搭配。
先通读下面的短文,掌握其大意,然后在每小题所给的四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Every October, my neighbourhood has a Halloween costume contest (万圣节服装比赛). This year, when my neighbour Ollie and I raced to the notice board to find out the theme(主题), we found that the theme was kind of, well, themeless.
“‘Be 1 ’” I said, reading the notice board. “That’s not really a theme, is it?”
Ollie got off his skateboard to get a closer look.“You’re right,” he agreed.
“Now that’s the creative spirit we need for this challenge!” I said. “Maybe, since we don’t know exactly what we want to be, we should start by choosing cool costume-making 2 .”
“I’ve got it.” Ollie said, picking up some leaves.
“Really?” I said. “You’re going to make a costume out of leaves?”
“Why not?” he said and 3 up some more leaves. “They’re totally free, and I think that no one will be a tree as great as me.”
“Don’t you mean, as great as we?” I laughed, 4 him in collecting those colorful autumn leaves.
It took us hours to get ready the next morning. When it was time for us to line up in the judging area, I felt pretty 5 . However, after a few minutes, I started having another feeling.
As I was standing there in the costume, the feeling got 6 until I was so uncomfortable, I just had to scratch (挠). When I looked over at Ollie, he was doing the 7 thing “This is the worst.” he said as he moved his body. “I feel like I’m 8 with a million mosquito (蚊子) bites.” “Me too,” I said back. “I have to get out of this costume now.”
At that moment, Mr. Lee called for everyone’s 9 .“The winner of our ‘Be Creative’ costume contest is these two magnificent trees” he announced.
“Wonderful work.” said our neighbour, Mrs. Nishikawa. “I especially liked your 10 that made it look as if your leaves were rustling (沙沙响动) in the wind.”
