“Loci” means “locations” in Latin. When you use this method, you ____17____ a place in your mind, like your house or school. You then put words or numbers in different places inside it. As you walk through this place in your mind, you can recall all the ____18____ you put there.

You pick it up and find that it has come from your 59-year-old uncle. Now, you open the door. There, you see ____21____ welcome mats (门垫). Six pairs of shoes have been placed on them. On the wall, there are five pegs (挂钩) with three coats hanging off them.
What about a long ____22____? You can imagine where each thing goes inside your fridge. When you go shopping, just “look” inside your “____23____” and take what you need.

Some experts discover that the weaker maths abilities in English-speaking children are related to English number words. However, the Chinese language has simpler number words. Chinese expresses maths concepts (概念) more clearly than English.
Chinese has just ten basic number words. English, however, has more than twenty. The trouble starts at “11”. English has a word (“eleven”) for that number. The Chinese language has words that can be translated as “ten-one”—spoken with the “ten” first. That makes it easier for the Chinese children to understand the place value (位值). Students can easily see the number system is based on the units of 10.
English number words over 10 don’t make the place value clear. Words for numbers 13 to 19 change the order of the ones and tens. Children are more likely to confuse (使迷惑;混淆) 17 with 71. Therefore, children working with English number words have a harder time doing complex calculations (复杂计算). They make more mistakes.
It also feels more natural for Chinese speakers than for English speakers to use the “make-a-ten” method. When adding two numbers, Chinese students often break down the numbers into parts and regroup them into tens and ones. For example, 9 plus 5 becomes 9 plus 1 plus 4. This method greatly helps students work out maths problems. Many teachers in America are also teaching their students the “make-a-ten” method. However, they are having a hard time because of the confusing English number words.
Now you should feel lucky that you are learning maths in China. Thanks to your native language, all the maths problems have become less difficult and less confusing.
29. Why does Chinese express maths concepts more clearly than English?
A. Because the Chinese like maths best. B. Because the Chinese are much cleverer.
C. Because Chinese has easier number words. D. Because Chinese has more number systems.
30. According to the text, how many basic number words are there in English?
A. Ten. B. Eleven. C. Nineteen. D. More than twenty.
31. According to the text, if you use the “make-a-ten” method to work out maths problems, 8 plus 7 will become ______.
A. 1+7+7 B. 4+4+7 C. 8+2+5 D. 8+3+4
32. What’s the best title for the text?
A. The way to work out maths problems B. The only language for learning maths
C. Why students don’t like to study maths D. Why Chinese students are good at maths
It was another Tuesday in my old college teacher Morrie’s home. I noticed some newspapers by the table.
“Are you still learning about news?” I asked Morrie.
“Yes,” he replied. “Do you think it’s strange, Mitch? Do you think because I’m dying, I shouldn’t care what happens in this world?”
“Maybe I shouldn’t care.” he said, “But now that I’m in pain (疼), I feel closer (更紧密) to people who feel the same. The other night, on TV, I saw homeless people living in the street, crying for help…and I just started to cry. I feel their pain just like my own. I don’t know any of these people. But I feel close to them.”
His eyes were filled with tears (眼泪). I tried to change the subject (话题), but he went on.
“I cry all the time now,” he said. “Never mind.”
I was amazed. Working in the news business, I covered stories where people died, talked to heart-broken family members. I never cried. I didn’t like showing my feelings. But here was Morrie, facing a serious illness, crying for people far away. Is this what happens at the end of life? Maybe death can make strangers feel and cry for one another.
Morrie blew his nose and asked, “It is okay with you, isn’t it? Men crying?”
“Sure,” I said, too quickly.
But he still went on, “One day, I’m going to show you it’s okay to cry.”
We laughed because he said the same thing in class nearly twenty years earlier.
“Mitch, you asked about taking care of people I don’t even know. Can I tell you the most important thing I’ve learned with my illness?”
“What’s that?”
“The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.” Morrie said.
His voice dropped, “Let it come in. We think we don’t deserve (值得) love. We think if we let it in, we’ll become too soft. But—love is the only rational (理性的) act.”
I nodded, like a good student. I moved over to give him a gentle kiss and felt his weak hands on my arms.
“So, you’ll come back next Tuesday?” he said softly.
(—Adapted from Tuesdays with Morrie)
33. What does Mitch do?
A. A college teacher. B. A news reporter.
C. A hospital doctor. D. A homeless student.
34. What can we learn about Morrie according to the passage?
A. He felt sad about Mitch’s illness. B. He kept himself in good health.
C. He taught Mitch twenty years ago. D. He was thinking more of himself.
35. What does the underlined “too quickly” show?
A. Mitch didn’t understand why Morrie cried.
B. Mitch was going to laugh at Morrie’s words.
C. Mitch was trying to change the subject again.
D. Mitch started to feel surprised at Morrie’s words.
36. What life lesson can we learn from Morrie?
A. Giving and receiving love is of great importance in life.
B. To keep the body in good health is a must for everyone.
C. Crying never solves problems but makes you feel better.
D. Try to enjoy your own life in every moment you are in.
①Memory is the ability (能力) to remember things. A good memory can help us do better in school, such as language-learning. A few people are born with amazing memories, but most people need to improve their memories by practising. Here are some secrets (秘密) about memories.
②We can still remember things happened in our childhood (童年) but not those last week. In fact, if the things have strong connections with our feelings in our mind, we can remember them longer. When things happen for the first time, children often have strong feelings. Also, parents tell us the interesting or funny stories from our childhood again and again. As a result, we remember them much better.
③It’s natural for common people to forget the new words which they learnt yesterday. Hermann Ebbinghaus wrote a book called Memory and showed a famous forgetting carve. According to him, the quickest loss (失去) of memory happens during the first two days after learning. That means going over what we’ve learned during this time can help us very well to remember the information.
④A 15-year-old sometimes forgets things, but that doesn’t mean his or her memory is getting worse. Our memory gets the top at the age of 25. At that point, we can remember over 12,000 pieces of information in a minute. But after this age, the brain (大脑) starts to get smaller. By middle age, our memory is much worse than when we were young.
37. Why is it easier to remember things in our childhood?
a. Because they were special. b. Because we got strong feelings from them.
c. Because they were helpful. d. Because we heard them many times.
A. ad B. bd C. ac D. bc
38. Which is the right picture for Hermann Ebbinghaus’s forgetting curve?
A. B.
C. D.
39. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. A person has his or her best memory at the age of 25.
B. A fifteen-year-old’s memory is worse than a middle-aged man’s.
C. A person’s memory gets worse only because the brain gets smaller.
D. A child usually remembers over 12,000 pieces of information in a minute.
40. How is the passage organized?
A. B. C. D.

Cleaning a house seems like a job that never ends. Have you ever stood in the middle of an untidy house, looking at the books and magazines around? You have the thought of tidying them up, but you give up before you start. Well, you are not alone. But luckily, I have found some nicer ways to make myself willing to do the housework.
Have less stuff (物品)
Reducing (减少) the number of the things is a good way to make house cleaning easier. Every few months, I throw away some things we don’t need or use. It could be old clothes that no longer fit or books that I have already read and won’t pick up again. Fewer things make the house tidier and easier to clean.
Do a bit each day
Cleaning the whole house without a break can be really difficult so I do a little each day. Monday could be the day to sweep the floors, Tuesday to make the bed, Wednesday to clean the bathroom, and so on. When the weekend comes, I can enjoy my free time watching a film or reading a good book instead of spending hours cleaning.
Start with the easiest task
When there’s a long list of housework, it can be hard to know where to begin. If so, I will start with the easiest task. When I complete the easiest task successfully, it will give me a sense of achievement. In this way, I will be more willing to go on with the rest of the housework.
Make housework interesting
Who says housework has to be boring? I’ve found that adding a little fun can make a big difference. I love listening to music and cleaning at the same time. As the music plays, I find myself dancing around. Time flies by and before I know it, the house is clean. I feel excited at the same time. It’s a win-win situation.
In short, housework doesn’t have to be something you hate. By using these ways, you can make it easier, or more enjoyable. You might even surprisingly find that you don’t mind cleaning at all.

2026-2027学年度第一学期八年级英语学情练习
(2026.10)
(满分100分,选择题共40分,非选择题共60分)
一、单项填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
请认真阅读下列考题,从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
1. —Andy! Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is _______ best film I have ever seen.
—I can’t agree more. I have never seen _______ better one before.
A. the; the B. a; the C. a; a D. the; a
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——安迪!《哈利·波特与火焰杯》是我看过的最好的电影。——我完全同意。我以前从没看过一部比它更好的电影。
the表示特指;a表示泛指。第一空修饰最高级“best”,前面需加定冠词the;第二空泛指“一部”更好的电影,且构成“否定词+a+ 比较级”结构表示最高级含义,应用不定冠词a。
2. Don’t be afraid of difficulties. Remember: kites rise highest ________ the wind, not with it.
A. against B. over C. across D. along
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:不要害怕困难。记住:风筝逆风而起,不是随风而起。
考查介词辨析。against违反,反对;over在……正上方;across穿过;along沿着。根据“Remember: kites rise highest…the wind, not with it.”可知,风筝是逆风而起的。against the wind“逆风飞扬”。故选A。
3. — I can’t believe Jim got first in the competition.
— As you know, God helps those who help ______.
A. yourself B. himself C. yourselves D. themselves
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我不敢相信吉姆在比赛中得了第一名。——正如你所知道的,上帝帮助那些自助的人。考查反身代词。who从句做those的定语,从句动词help的宾语就是先行词those,需用其反身代词themselves。根据句意语境,可知选D。
4. The true friend ________ us ________ a lot of warm support, so we should value the friendship.
A. offers; to B. offers; with C. provides; for D. provides; with
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:真正的朋友给我们提供了大量的温暖支持,所以我们应该珍惜这份友谊。
provide提供;offer提供。两词都有“提供”之意,但搭配不同。provide的固定搭配为provide sb with sth(给某人提供某物)或 provide sth for sb(为某人提供某物);而offer的搭配为offer sb sth或offer sth to sb,其后不接介词with。本题空格后为“us+a lot of warm support”,构成“provide sb with sth”结构,应填provides;with。
5. In the exam, the________ you check your answers, the ________mistakes you’ll make.
A. more careful; fewer B. more careful; less
C. more carefully; fewer D. more carefully; less
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:在考试中,你检查答案越仔细,你犯的错就越少。
more careful更仔细的,形容词比较级;more carefully仔细地,副词比较级;fewer更少的,修饰可数名词复数;less更少的,修饰不可数名词。本题考查 “the + 比较级,the + 比较级” 结构。第一空修饰动词check,要用副词carefully,其比较级为more carefully;第二空修饰可数名词mistakes,要用fewer。
6. Can you help me ________ this English poem into Chinese? It is too difficult for me to understand.
A. return B. translate C. repeat D. search
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:你能帮我把这首英文诗翻译成中文吗?对我来说太难理解了。
return返回/归还;translate翻译;repeat重复;search搜索。根据“…this English poem into Chinese”及后句“ too difficult for me to understand”可知,此处指把英文诗翻译成中文,固定搭配translate…into…意为“把……翻译成……”。
7. —Do you watch Peppa Pig on TV? It’s so funny!
—Well, no. To be________, I think it’s quite silly.
A. curious B. brave C. cheerful D. honest
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你在电视上看《小猪佩奇》吗?它真有趣!——嗯,不。说实话,我认为它很愚蠢。
curious好奇的;brave勇敢的;cheerful快乐的;honest诚实的。固定短语to be honest意为“说实话”,常用于引出真实想法,符合语境中否定对方看法并提出自己意见的情景。
8. There is only ________ beef left in the fridge. We need to buy more.
A. bit B. a bit C. a little D. a little bit
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:冰箱里只剩下一点牛肉了。我们需要再买一些。
bit一点/小块(名词);a bit一点(不能直接修饰名词,需加of);a little一点(修饰不可数名词);a little bit一点点(通常后接of或修饰形容词)。beef是不可数名词。a bit和a little bit修饰名词时需加介词of;bit单独使用不符合语法;只有a little可直接修饰不可数名词。
9. Nanjing isn’t so large ________Shanghai. But it’s the second ________city in East China.
A. as; largest B. like; largest C. like; large D. as; large
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:南京不像上海那么大。但是,它是中国东部第二大城市。
根据“not so... ________”可知,否定句中表示同级比较常用固定搭配“not so... as”,意为“不如……一样”,故第一空填as;根据“the second ________ city”可知,此处为“序数词 + 最高级”结构,表示“第几最……”,故第二空填largest。故选A。
10. —Apple held a big event to show its latest new products. The price of this mobile phone is too high.
—What about that one? It’s ________ than this one.
A. higher B. more expensive C. lower D. cheaper
【答案】D

【详解】句意:——苹果公司举行了一场大型活动来展示其最新产品。这个手机的价格太高了。——那个怎么样?它比这个便宜。
考查比较级。higher更高的;more expensive更贵的;lower更低的;cheaper更便宜的。根据“The price of this mobile phone is too high.”和“What about that one? It’s ... than this one.”可知,此处是在推荐一个更便宜的;主语it指“那个手机”,此处用cheaper“更便宜的”。故选D。

【导语】本文主要介绍了一种名为“位置记忆法”的记忆技巧。通过在脑海中想象熟悉的地点,并将需要记忆的信息放置其中,能帮助人们轻松记住单词、数字或购物清单等。
【16题详解】
句意:你是否很难记住它们?
根据后文介绍的“位置记忆法”可知,此处讨论的是记忆生词的困难,可知remembering表示“记住”符合语境。pronouncing发音,translating翻译,understanding理解,均不符合主题。
【17题详解】
句意:当你使用这种方法时,你在脑海中创造一个地方,比如你的家或学校。
根据“a place in your mind”可知,是在脑海中构建或想象出一个地方,create表示“创造”符合语境。believe相信,fight抗争,invent发明(多指发明实物、机器,不搭配虚拟空间),均不匹配。
【18题详解】
句意:当你在脑海中走过这个地方时,你可以回想起你放在那里的所有信息。
根据前文“put words or numbers”可知,单词或数字属于信息(information),可知information符合语境。其他选项不能准确概括单词和数字。
【19题详解】
句意:因为人们更擅长记住地点而不是单词或列表。
根据前文“‘Loci’ means ‘locations’”以及在脑海中想象一个地方的做法,可知这种方法有效是因为人们对地点记忆更深刻。places表示“地点”符合句意。events事件,news新闻,tools工具符,与“位置记忆法”的核心原理无关。
【20题详解】
句意:第一步是想象一个家。
根据后文详细描述的想象过程,可知这里是在介绍使用该记忆法的第一步,step表示“步骤”符合语境。case案例,mistake错误,rule规则,不符合介绍操作流程的语境。
【21题详解】
句意:在那里,你看到两块迎宾地毯。
根据前文“remembering π(3.141592653)”以及已经出现的数字314、1、59,可知接下来的数字应该是two,对应两块地毯。three,four,five不符合圆周率的数字顺序。
【22题详解】
句意:一份长长的购物清单怎么样?
根据后文“When you go shopping”可知,此处举例的是去购物时需要记住的购物清单。shopping list表示“购物清单”符合句意。email address邮箱地址,phone number手机号,word list单词表,不匹配购物场景。
【23题详解】
句意:当你去购物时,只需“看”一下你的“脑海”并拿走你需要的东西。
根据前文“in your mind”可知,这种记忆法是在脑海中进行的,所以购物时是回想脑海中的画面。mind表示“脑海”符合句意。car汽车,hand手,kitchen厨房,逻辑不连贯。
【24题详解】
句意:记忆比赛的世界纪录保持者经常说,任何人都可以学习并使用位置记忆法,成为“记忆高手”。
根据语境,这种记忆方法是任何人都可以去学习和掌握的,learn表示“学习”符合语境。suggest建议,finish完成,decide决定,无法搭配方法。
【25题详解】
句意:你准备好尝试这种方法了吗?
根据后文“Find out whether it can help you...”可知,作者是在鼓励读者去尝试,固定搭配be ready to do sth.(准备好做某事)符合语境。ready表示“准备好的”符合用法。be able to do能够做(前面已有 can,重复冲突),afraid 害怕,used习惯,语义不符。
三、阅读理解(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
请认真阅读下列材料,从材料后各题的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Some experts discover that the weaker maths abilities in English-speaking children are related to English number words. However, the Chinese language has simpler number words. Chinese expresses maths concepts (概念) more clearly than English.
Chinese has just ten basic number words. English, however, has more than twenty. The trouble starts at “11”. English has a word (“eleven”) for that number. The Chinese language has words that can be translated as “ten-one”—spoken with the “ten” first. That makes it easier for the Chinese children to understand the place value (位值). Students can easily see the number system is based on the units of 10.
English number words over 10 don’t make the place value clear. Words for numbers 13 to 19 change the order of the ones and tens. Children are more likely to confuse (使迷惑;混淆) 17 with 71. Therefore, children working with English number words have a harder time doing complex calculations (复杂计算). They make more mistakes.
It also feels more natural for Chinese speakers than for English speakers to use the “make-a-ten” method. When adding two numbers, Chinese students often break down the numbers into parts and regroup them into tens and ones. For example, 9 plus 5 becomes 9 plus 1 plus 4. This method greatly helps students work out maths problems. Many teachers in America are also teaching their students the “make-a-ten” method. However, they are having a hard time because of the confusing English number words.
Now you should feel lucky that you are learning maths in China. Thanks to your native language, all the maths problems have become less difficult and less confusing.
29. Why does Chinese express maths concepts more clearly than English?
A. Because the Chinese like maths best. B. Because the Chinese are much cleverer.
C. Because Chinese has easier number words. D. Because Chinese has more number systems.
30. According to the text, how many basic number words are there in English?
A. Ten. B. Eleven. C. Nineteen. D. More than twenty.
31. According to the text, if you use the “make-a-ten” method to work out maths problems, 8 plus 7 will become ______.
A. 1+7+7 B. 4+4+7 C. 8+2+5 D. 8+3+4
32. What’s the best title for the text?
A. The way to work out maths problems B. The only language for learning maths
C. Why students don’t like to study maths D. Why Chinese students are good at maths
【答案】29. C 30. D 31. C 32. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,讲述了英语母语儿童数学能力较弱与英语数字单词有关,而中文数字单词更简单,能更清晰地表达数学概念,中文使用者使用“凑十法”也更自然,这使得中国学生在数学学习上有优势。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“However, the Chinese language has simpler number words. Chinese expresses maths concepts (概念) more clearly than English.”可知,中文数字单词更简单,所以中文表达数学概念比英文更清晰。故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“English, however, has more than twenty.”可知,英语有超过二十个基本数字单词。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“When adding two numbers, Chinese students often break down the numbers into parts and regroup them into tens and ones. For example, 9 plus 5 becomes 9 plus 1 plus 4.”可知,使用“凑十法”时,会把数字拆分成十和个位。那么8加7,可以把7拆分成2和5,就变成8加2加5。故选C。
【32题详解】
最佳标题题。文章主要讲述了中文数字单词的特点以及“凑十法”等使得中国学生在数学学习上有优势,解释了中国学生擅长数学的原因。选项D“为什么中国学生擅长数学”符合文章主旨。故选D。
It was another Tuesday in my old college teacher Morrie’s home. I noticed some newspapers by the table.
“Are you still learning about news?” I asked Morrie.
“Yes,” he replied. “Do you think it’s strange, Mitch? Do you think because I’m dying, I shouldn’t care what happens in this world?”
“Maybe I shouldn’t care.” he said, “But now that I’m in pain (疼), I feel closer (更紧密) to people who feel the same. The other night, on TV, I saw homeless people living in the street, crying for help…and I just started to cry. I feel their pain just like my own. I don’t know any of these people. But I feel close to them.”
His eyes were filled with tears (眼泪). I tried to change the subject (话题), but he went on.
“I cry all the time now,” he said. “Never mind.”
I was amazed. Working in the news business, I covered stories where people died, talked to heart-broken family members. I never cried. I didn’t like showing my feelings. But here was Morrie, facing a serious illness, crying for people far away. Is this what happens at the end of life? Maybe death can make strangers feel and cry for one another.
Morrie blew his nose and asked, “It is okay with you, isn’t it? Men crying?”
“Sure,” I said, too quickly.
But he still went on, “One day, I’m going to show you it’s okay to cry.”
We laughed because he said the same thing in class nearly twenty years earlier.
“Mitch, you asked about taking care of people I don’t even know. Can I tell you the most important thing I’ve learned with my illness?”
“What’s that?”
“The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.” Morrie said.
His voice dropped, “Let it come in. We think we don’t deserve (值得) love. We think if we let it in, we’ll become too soft. But—love is the only rational (理性的) act.”
I nodded, like a good student. I moved over to give him a gentle kiss and felt his weak hands on my arms.
“So, you’ll come back next Tuesday?” he said softly.
(—Adapted from Tuesdays with Morrie)
33. What does Mitch do?
A. A college teacher. B. A news reporter.

A. Mitch didn’t understand why Morrie cried.

36. What life lesson can we learn from Morrie?

①Memory is the ability (能力) to remember things. A good memory can help us do better in school, such as language-learning. A few people are born with amazing memories, but most people need to improve their memories by practising. Here are some secrets (秘密) about memories.
②We can still remember things happened in our childhood (童年) but not those last week. In fact, if the things have strong connections with our feelings in our mind, we can remember them longer. When things happen for the first time, children often have strong feelings. Also, parents tell us the interesting or funny stories from our childhood again and again. As a result, we remember them much better.
③It’s natural for common people to forget the new words which they learnt yesterday. Hermann Ebbinghaus wrote a book called Memory and showed a famous forgetting carve. According to him, the quickest loss (失去) of memory happens during the first two days after learning. That means going over what we’ve learned during this time can help us very well to remember the information.
④A 15-year-old sometimes forgets things, but that doesn’t mean his or her memory is getting worse. Our memory gets the top at the age of 25. At that point, we can remember over 12,000 pieces of information in a minute. But after this age, the brain (大脑) starts to get smaller. By middle age, our memory is much worse than when we were young.
37. Why is it easier to remember things in our childhood?
a. Because they were special. b. Because we got strong feelings from them.
c. Because they were helpful. d. Because we heard them many times.
A. ad B. bd C. ac D. bc
38. Which is the right picture for Hermann Ebbinghaus’s forgetting curve?
A. B.
C. D.
39. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. A person has his or her best memory at the age of 25.
B. A fifteen-year-old’s memory is worse than a middle-aged man’s.
C. A person’s memory gets worse only because the brain gets smaller.
D. A child usually remembers over 12,000 pieces of information in a minute.
40. How is the passage organized?

【39题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Our memory gets the top at the age of 25.”可知,我们的记忆力在25岁时达到顶峰。故选A。
【40题详解】
篇章结构题。分析文章内容可知,第一段引出记忆力这一主题,第二段介绍为什么还记得童年的事情,第三段介绍赫尔曼·艾宾浩斯的遗忘曲线,第四段介绍不同年龄的记忆力区别。第一段总领全文,第二、三、四段并列。故选D。

girl
【解析】
【详解】句意:贝蒂比她班里其他任何女孩都高。改为同义句,可用最高级结构“the+形容词最高级+名词”表示。原句“taller than any other girl”相当于“the tallest girl”,意为“她班里最高的女孩”。故填the;tallest;girl。
60. Betty is 1.75 meters tall.(对划线部分提问)
________ ________ is Betty?
【答案】 ①.
How ②.
tall
【解析】
【详解】句意:贝蒂身高1.75米。划线部分“1.75 meters tall”表示身高,对身高提问要用疑问词组How tall,意为“多高”。句首单词首字母大写。
B)根据所给汉语提示完成句子,请注意填写短语。(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)
61. 继续学习,不然你就会落后于时代。
Keep learning, or you will ________________ the times.
【答案】fall behind
【解析】
【详解】根据句意可知,此处表示“落后”,用动词短语“fall behind”,will后接动词原形构成一般将来时,表示“将会落后”。故填fall behind。
62. 这有助于我们从小培养良好的习惯。
This helps us ________________ from an early age.
【答案】to develop good habits##develop good habits
【解析】
【详解】根据中英文对照可知,空处表示“培养良好的习惯”,应用动词短语“develop good habits”。又因为“help sb (to) do sth”是固定搭配,意为帮助某人做某事,所以空处应填to develop good habits/develop good habits。故填to develop good habits/develop good habits。
63. 他超强的记忆力使他在同学们中脱颖而出。
His great memory ________________ from his classmates.
【答案】
makes him stand out
【解析】
【详解】原句中“使他在同学们中脱颖而出”是关键词,对应英文短语make him stand out,与from his classmates构成stand out from,表示“从……中脱颖而出”。主语His great memory为第三人称单数,一般现在时用makes;make sb. do sth.中stand用动词原形;out与stand构成固定短语stand out。故填makes him stand out。
64. 如果你待人友善,你会和身边所有人相处融洽。
If you are friendly, you will ________________ everyone around you.
【答案】
get on well with
【解析】
【详解】原文中“和……相处融洽”为关键词,“与……相处融洽”的动词短语为get on well with,will后接动词原形。
65. 务必将这个计划保密,不要告诉其他人。
Make sure to ________________. Don’t tell it to others.
【答案】keep the plan secret
【解析】
【详解】根据中英文对照可知,此处缺少“将这个计划保密”。keep sth secret“将某事保密”;plan“计划”,前面加定冠词the表特指;make sure to do sth“确定做某事”,此处应用动词原形keep。故填keep the plan secret。
六、阅读填空(共20小题;满分20分)
A)
根据所读内容,在文章后的空格里填入恰当内容。(第1-9题每空1词;第10题词数不限)
Cleaning a house seems like a job that never ends. Have you ever stood in the middle of an untidy house, looking at the books and magazines around? You have the thought of tidying them up, but you give up before you start. Well, you are not alone. But luckily, I have found some nicer ways to make myself willing to do the housework.
Have less stuff (物品)
Reducing (减少) the number of the things is a good way to make house cleaning easier. Every few months, I throw away some things we don’t need or use. It could be old clothes that no longer fit or books that I have already read and won’t pick up again. Fewer things make the house tidier and easier to clean.
Do a bit each day
Cleaning the whole house without a break can be really difficult so I do a little each day. Monday could be the day to sweep the floors, Tuesday to make the bed, Wednesday to clean the bathroom, and so on. When the weekend comes, I can enjoy my free time watching a film or reading a good book instead of spending hours cleaning.
Start with the easiest task
When there’s a long list of housework, it can be hard to know where to begin. If so, I will start with the easiest task. When I complete the easiest task successfully, it will give me a sense of achievement. In this way, I will be more willing to go on with the rest of the housework.
Make housework interesting
Who says housework has to be boring? I’ve found that adding a little fun can make a big difference. I love listening to music and cleaning at the same time. As the music plays, I find myself dancing around. Time flies by and before I know it, the house is clean. I feel excited at the same time. It’s a win-win situation.
In short, housework doesn’t have to be something you hate. By using these ways, you can make it easier, or more enjoyable. You might even surprisingly find that you don’t mind cleaning at all.
