You might be asking yourself, which way of studying gets 6 (good) results? Many people argue that a silent setting is the way to go, but it seems that is not necessarily the case. Some research 7 (show) that outside noise often helps some people focus because it makes them form a mental “wall” around 8 they are doing and improves their attention. So, if you’re a student who chooses 9 (study) while sitting at a table in a busy shopping mall, don’t worry about it. And if you work in total silence, that’s OK too. Judging from Claudia’s and Cathy’s study 10 (habit), the best way to study is the way that works for you.

The card said, “Dear friend, even though you got hurt, I know you have the determination 7 (go) through it. Happy birthday!”

However, school life is not always perfect. Last month, Lin Tao and I 3 (fight) over a group project. We both wanted to be the leader and said some bad words. That night, I was 4 (sleep). Lying in bed, I replayed our argument in my head. The 5 (true) was that I misunderstood him, and this made me feel even 6 (sad).
The next day at school, I saw him 7 (sit) alone. “I’m sorry for what I said,” I told him. He looked at me, 8 (nod) his head and said, “Me too.” We talked everything out.

What will happen if all insects die out? I think it will be 5 (real) serious. We need insects 6 (break) down (分解) dead plants and animals and turn them into new things.

Animals are our friends. We share the same world with them. But some animals are in danger for many 1 (reason).
Blue whales are one of them. They are the largest animals in the world. They mainly feed 2 the smallest animals in the ocean. Now they are in danger because 3 (they) living environment is getting bad. 4 (one), some people make their ocean home dirty. Second, some people kill them 5 their meat. Third, there is more and more man-made noise in the sea. It 6 (make) it hard for blue whales to talk with each other. Because of these,the number of blue whales is becoming smaller and smaller.
Sloths (树懒) are another one. They are the 7 (slow) moving animals in the world. They mainly live in South America. They are funny, 8 lots of people like them very much. Sloths spend so much time 9 (stay) in the trees. They are also in danger because people cut down too many trees in the forest. Sloths will have no place 10 (live) in if we don’t do anything for them.
Now it’s time for us to do something to protect them.
Passage 5
I had a dream of having one dog, especially the Labrador (拉布拉多猎犬). I told this to my parents 1 they always said Labradors were too expensive. We just didn’t have enough room for it to run, because we were not wealthy and lived in the suburbs (郊区).

The last one picked up was 6 (ugly) of all. One of the 7 (reason) I picked him up last was that I had a bit of difficulty trying to catch him.
The puppy’s owner told me he didn’t think they wanted that one, because it was the weakest . As I examined him, I looked right into 8 (he) eyes, bringing him close to my face, weak or not?

Passage 2
阅读下面短文,根据上下文或括号内单词等提示,在空白处填入适当的单词或括号内单词的适当形式。
Claudia and Cathy are good friends. They do a lot of things together, like going shopping, watching movies, looking after homeless dogs, or just 1 (sit) at a local cafe. Since they take the same school subjects, they would love to study together, but they find this 2 (possible). Their working styles are so completely different 3 they can’t be in the same room while they are studying!
Claudia prefers to study in a 4 (total) silent room, but Cathy loves to play music or even have the TV on. Claudia can sit for hours 5 moving, and often gets all of her homework done in one sitting. Cathy, on the other hand, is continually getting up, and says that she thinks best when she’s on the move.
You might be asking yourself, which way of studying gets 6 (good) results? Many people argue that a silent setting is the way to go, but it seems that is not necessarily the case. Some research 7 (show) that outside noise often helps some people focus because it makes them form a mental “wall” around 8 they are doing and improves their attention. So, if you’re a student who chooses 9 (study) while sitting at a table in a busy shopping mall, don’t worry about it. And if you work in total silence, that’s OK too. Judging from Claudia’s and Cathy’s study 10 (habit), the best way to study is the way that works for you.
【答案】
1.sitting 2.impossible 3.that 4.totally 5.without 6.better 7.shows 8.what 9.to study 10.habits
【导语】本文讲述了克劳迪娅和凯西截然不同的学习方式,说明适合自己的才是最好的学习方式。
【详解】
1.句意:她们一起做很多事情,比如购物、看电影、照顾流浪狗,或者就坐在当地咖啡馆。like是介词,后面并列going、watching、looking after,都用动名词,or并列,所以sit变为sitting。
2.句意:因为她们学同样科目,本想一起学习,却发现这做不到。but表转折,她们想要一起学习,但是发现这不可能。possible“可能的”,用其反义词impossible“不可能的”。
3.句意:她们的学习方式差异如此之大,以至于学习时不能待在同一个房间。此处为固定句型so…that…表示“如此……以至……”,引导结果状语从句。
4.句意:克劳迪娅更喜欢在完全安静的房间学习,但凯西喜欢放音乐,甚至开着电视。修饰形容词 silent,要用副词。total的副词形式为totally表示“完全地”。
5.句意:克劳迪娅可以一动不动坐数小时,常常一次性完成全部作业。此处是指坐数小时不动,应用介词without表示“没有”,构成短语without moving“一动不动”。
6.句意:你可能会想问:哪种学习方式能取得更好的效果?此处把两个人的学习方式作对比,哪种获得更好的结果,应用good的比较级better。
7.句意:部分研究表明,外界噪音会帮助一部分人集中精力,因为这会让她们在自己正在做的事周围构建一道心理“屏障”,提升专注力。research在此处为不可数名词,作主语,一般现在时,谓语动词用第三人称单数shows。
8.句意:部分研究表明,外界噪音会帮助一部分人集中精力,因为这会让她们在自己正在做的事周围构建一道心理“屏障”,提升专注力。介词around后面是宾语从句,从句doing缺少宾语,应用what指代“她们正在做的事情”。
9.句意:所以,如果你喜欢在喧闹商场的桌边学习,不必担心;如果你在完全安静的环境学习,也完全没问题。固定搭配choose to do sth.“选择做某事”,应用动词不定式。
10.句意:从克劳迪娅与凯西的学习习惯来看:最好的学习方式,就是适合你自己的方式。此处指克劳迪娅与凯西两个人的学习习惯,habit可数名词,用复数habits。

【详解】
1.句意:李雷很有幽默感,总是让我们的课堂充满欢笑。固定搭配a sense of humour,表示“幽默感”。

【详解】
1.句意:数百万年的进化赋予它们难以置信的本领来应对自然挑战。主语Millions of years of evolution中心词为evolution,视为单数,强调动作已经完成,使用现在完成时,give的现在完成形式为has given。
2.句意:一些野生物种对环境变化比人们想象的要敏感得多。句中有than表示比较,much修饰形容词比较级,sensitive的比较级more sensitive。
3.句意:温度或水环境的微小变化会极大影响它们的生命周期。修饰名词life cycles,要用形容词性物主代词,they的形容词性物主代词是their。

2.句意:昆虫的数量正在变少。空格位于The number和insects之间,表示“昆虫的数量”。“the number of+可数名词复数”表示“……的数量”,因此填of。
3.句意:昆虫可居住的地方也比以前更少了。空格修饰places,且后面有than before,需要形容词比较级,括号给出few,其比较级为fewer。
4.句意:现在它已经成了一个令人担忧的自然问题。空格位于worrying natural problem之前,problem是可数名词单数,worrying以辅音音素开头,因此用不定冠词a。

9.句意:科学家们花费大量时间寻找更好的方法来控制糟糕的局面。spend time doing sth表示“花费时间做某事”,因此search用动名词searching。
10.句意:其中一个建议是人们应该了解自然,并尽可能快地改变他们对昆虫的看法。空格位于their和about之间,需要名词,且指人们的看法,通常用复数ideas。idea是单数名词,复数形式为ideas。

【导语】本文主要讲述了蓝鲸和树懒成为濒危动物的原因,呼吁大家保护动物。
【详解】
1.句意:但是一些动物由于许多原因处于危险之中。many后接可数名词的复数形式,所以空格处应填reason“原因”的复数形式reasons。
2.句意:它们主要以海洋中最小的动物为食。feed on意为“以……为食”,故填on。
3.句意:现在它们处于危险之中,因为它们的生活环境越来越恶劣。根据空后的名词短语“living environment”可知,空格处应填they的形容词性物主代词their“它们的”。
4.句意:首先,一些人把它们海洋里的家园弄脏了。根据后文的“Second”和“Third”可知,此处应填First“首先”,表示列举顺序,放在句子开头首字母需大写。
5.句意:其次,有些人为了它们的肉而杀了它们。“kill…for…”是固定搭配,意为“为了……而杀死……”,故填for。
6.句意:这使得蓝鲸很难相互交流。根据语境可知,时态是一般现在时,主语It表示单数,所以谓语动词make应填第三人称单数形式,故填makes。
7.句意:它们是世界上移动最慢的动物。结合提示词和“in the world”可知,此处应用形容词slow“缓慢的”的最高级形式slowest。
8.句意:它们很有趣,所以很多人都很喜欢它们。分析“They are funny…lots of people like them very much.”可知,后句是前句的结果,空格处意为“所以”,故填so。
9.句意:树懒花很多时间待在树上。spend time doing sth.“花时间做某事”,结合提示词,空格处应填动词stay“待,停留”的动名词形式staying。
10.句意:如果我们不为树懒做点什么,它们将没有地方住。分析“Sloths will have no place…in”可知,空格处应填动词不定式,作定语修饰名词place,故填to live。
Passage 5

Time 2 (go) by and my love for this beautiful animal grew. Finally at the beginning of my senior high school, my parents decided to move from the suburbs 3 the country, where we would have much space. My dream finally came true. My parents asked me to go with them to pick out 4 Labrador puppy.
When we got to the farm, there were only five puppies left. I decided to pick each one up to get a closer look. And besides, who could refuse to pick up 5 (love) puppies? They all looked the same to me. After I picked up the first four, I thought it would be a hard decision. All the dogs seemed to have the same lazy state (状态). The last one picked up was 6 (ugly) of all. One of the 7 (reason) I picked him up last was that I had a bit of difficulty trying to catch him.
The puppy’s owner told me he didn’t think they wanted that one, because it was the weakest . As I examined him, I looked right into 8 (he) eyes, bringing him close to my face, weak or not? I knew this was the one I wanted because he licked (舔) my face. That little show of love was all I needed 9 I knew that this was my dog.
In our life, the most beautiful thing is always hard to get close to. Only the proper choice belongs 10 your heart.
