第一部分:知識運用(共兩節,45分)
第一節 語法填空(共10小題;每小題1.5分,共15分)閱讀下列短文,根據短文內容填空。在未給提示詞的空白處僅填寫1個適當的單詞,在給出提示詞的空白處用括號內所給詞的正確形式填空。
A
During a trip to New York City, Alabama woman Mary Anderson ___1___ (notice) a trolley driver couldn’t see well when it was snowing. At that point, drivers had to open the window ___2___ (clear) it, letting snow and rain into the vehicle. As a solution, Anderson designed and patented wood and rubber arms ___3___ would push rain and snow off the window at the pull of a lever (控制杆). But she was told her ___4___ (invent) was distracting and impractical, and she never profited from her design.
【答案】1. noticed;2. to clear;3. that/which;4. invention;
【劉凱老師解析】這是一篇記敘文。該段落主要描寫了Mary Anderson發明汽車擋風玻璃雨刮器,但被認為是不切實際的發明。
【1題詳解】考查時態。句意:在去紐約的旅途中,阿拉巴馬州的婦女瑪麗·安德森注意到一名電車司機在下雪時看不清東西。根據前一句「During a trip to New York City,在去紐約的路上…」可知notice這個動作是過去發生的,要使用一般過去時。故填noticed。
【2題詳解】考查不定式。句意:就在那時,司機不得不打開窗戶去清理它。根據句意可知,打開窗戶的目的是「清理」,即使用不定式做目的狀語。故填to clear。
【3題詳解】考查定語從句。句意:作為解決方法,Anderson設計了一個木質的橡膠手臂並申請專利,這個手臂可以通過控制杆將車窗上的雨和雪推掉。該句為定語從句,先行詞為wood and rubber arms,並在從句中做主語,應由關係代詞that/which引導。故填that\which.
【4題詳解】考查名詞。句意:但是她被告知她的發明會分散司機注意力,不切實際。本題中invite前為形容詞性物主代詞her,其後要接名詞,所以將invent變為invention。故填invention。
B
The red-crowned crane (鶴) is one of the ___5___ (large) cranes in the world, standing at about 150cm tall. Its feathers are as white as snow, except for some black ones on its face, neck and wings. Its unique feature, from which it gets its name, is the bright red skin on the top of its head. The red-crowned crane ___6___ (find) in China, Russia, Mongolia, Japan and the Korean Peninsula (半島). In China, it spends the warmer months in the rivers and wetlands in the north-east. ___7___ the weather gets cold, it migrates to east-central China. The red-crowned crane is a symbol of long life and good luck in Chinese culture.
【答案】5. largest;6. is found/has been found;7. When/As;
【劉凱老師解析】本文是說明文。介紹了丹頂鶴的外觀,棲息地和象徵意義。
【5題詳解】考查最高級。此處是one of句型,表示「最……之一」,其中形容詞用最高級。故填largest。
【6題詳解】考查被動語態。句中主語The red-crowned crane是單數,和動詞find是被動關係。此處表示丹頂鶴在中國、俄羅斯、蒙古、日本和朝鮮半島被發現,既可表示過去發生的事,也可以指到現在為止在這些地方被發現,用現在完成時。故填is found/has been found。
【7題詳解】考查連詞。句意:當天氣變冷時,它遷移到中國的中東部。此處表示「當……時候」,引導時間狀語從句,故填When/As。
C
Nearly two decades have passed since China sent the first Beidou satellite into space in 2000. During that time, more Beidou satellites were sent into orbit (軌道), ___8___ (form) the Beidou Navigation Satellite System (BDS). In late 2012, it began providing positioning, navigation, timing and messaging ___9___ (service) to people in China and other parts of the Asia-Pacific region. At the end of 2018, BDS started to serve users worldwide. Now with two more Beidou satellites ____10____ (launch) on Dec 16, 2019, BDS has 53 satellites in orbit.
【答案】8. forming;9. services;10. launched;
【劉凱老師解析】這是一篇說明文。主要介紹了自2000年中國將第一顆北鬥衛星送入太空以來,已經過去了近20年。在此期間,更多的北鬥衛星被送入軌道,形成北鬥導航衛星系統。文章還說明了從2012年底到2019年期間,北鬥系統能提供的功能和完善情況。
【8題詳解】考查非謂語動詞。句意:在此期間,更多的北鬥衛星被送入軌道,形成北鬥導航衛星系統。分析句子結構,form與其邏輯主語Beidou satellites之間是主動關係,用現在分詞作結果狀語。故填forming。
【9題詳解】考查名詞的數。句意:2012年底,該公司開始向中國和亞太地區其他地區的用戶提供定位、導航、定時和簡訊服務。service為可數名詞,根據上文positioning, navigation, timing and messaging可知此處服務不止一種,故應用名詞複數形式。故填services。
【10題詳解】考查with複合結構。句意:2019年12月16日,北鬥系統又發射了兩顆北鬥衛星,現有53顆在軌衛星。這裡是with複合結構,因為「北鬥衛星」和「發射」之間是被動關係,所以用with + n + 過去分詞結構,所以填launched。
第二節 完形填空(共20小題;每小題1.5分,共30分)閱讀下面短文,掌握其大意,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項,並在答題卡上將該項塗黑。
My Boxing Experience我的拳擊經驗
This year I joined boxing class. My friend Lea and I were the only ____11____ in the class. We got to throw our first punches (拳擊) and learned how we should stand. I still didn’t know how to do it well, but I felt that choosing the boxing class was the right decision. Mr. Vernon, our boxing teacher, made us work hard and sweat. The boxing pads (拳擊護具) were my favorite, but my punches weren’t ____12____ enough.
After participating in more practices, we had learned how to punch in six different ways. The boys were improving a lot on their strength, and Lea with her speed, and me? Well, I had a hard time seeing the ____13____. Mr. Vernon would always tell me that practice would make me stronger, and this is what helped motivate me to ____14____.
Each practice there was at least one boy who would ____15____ me and say, 「Oh you’re too short to box. Mr. Vernon has to ____16____ down when you are on the boxing pads; oh you’re not strong enough; you punch like a mouse.」
I know those comments were not to ____17____ me, but just to have fun. It’s true, I’m a small and short person and I did lack confidence; but hearing those comments can either bring you ____18____, or make you feel motivated to show them they are ____19____. In my case, they started to discourage me. I didn’t have the strength to think they were wrong, and a part of me thought that they were speaking the ____20____. I hid it inside my heart because I thought that showing that I was ____21____ myself would make it worse.
I remember one particular practice where I was mad and angry, and my punches suddenly felt stronger and faster. I was ____22____, yet I had a feeling in me that it was there all along. I just didn’t have that ____23____ in me. After practice, Mr. Vernon pointed out that I was getting stronger and better, which really made me feel more ____24____ and showed me that what the others were saying about me was wrong. I had ____25____ found the strength I needed. The following practices, Mr. Vernon was impressed with my hooks and uppercuts, because they were getting ____26____.
This experience taught me that boxing requires a lot of work and effort, but it also taught me not to feel ____27____ about what people say. If you focus on your strong points and improve on your ____28____ ones, there is no reason for you to feel disappointed. Boxing taught me how to fight, and defend myself physically and mentally, and show that short girls can do anything if they have the ____29____ to prove people wrong. Being short doesn’t ____30____ me and definitely does not limit me from doing things that tall or stronger people can do.
