Ⅲ.任务型阅读
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意：每个空格只填1个单词。
We are going to describe one way to build a rooftop garden that does not even require soil.Four things are needed for a small rooftop garden.One thing is a roof that can support the weight.Another is grass cutting.The third thing is a sheet of plastic on which to spread the cut grass.And the last thing is a box about eight centimeters deep and made out of four pieces of wood.
Once you are sure the roof is good，cut and collect some grass.Then lay down the plastic where the garden box will go.The foursided box can be as long and as wide as needed.Place the box on top of the sheet of plastic.Then fill it with the cut grass.Next，add water and walk on the cuttings to press them down.
After about three weeks，the rooftop garden is ready for planting.Put the seeds directly into the wet grass cuttings.This garden is a good place to grow peas，tomatoes，beans，onions and lettuce.If the box is deep enough，potatoes and carrots will also grow.
It is important to keep the grass wet until the plants begin to grow.When the plants are growing，they will need watering every day，unless there is rain.And they will need some liquid fertilizer.Also，seeds and new plants must be protected from insects and birds.
Rooftop gardens are increasingly popular，and not just to grow vegetables.They keep buildings cooler in the sun，so they save energy.They can also extend the useful life of a roof.Rooftop gardens also reduce the runoff of storm water and help clean the air.Plus they add beauty，and give birds and insects in the city a nice place to live.

课时作业(二十一)
Ⅰ.1.A open up意为“打开，开创，开辟”，根据句意“现在我们已打开门路，我们希望在中国开辟一个广阔的市场。”可知，应选择A项。open into通向；open out变大，变宽。
2．B 句意为：“距离我们上次见面很长时间了。”“是的，而且我们要过很长时间才会再见面。”因此根据句意选B。
3．D 句意为：总统赞同社会福利制度应加以改进的看法。subscribe to此处意为“同意，支持”，通常用于正式文体中。
4．B owing to＝due to 因为；be due to do 预计要……根据句意选B。
5．C in large quantities 为习惯用法，意为“大批量；大量地”。
6．D key后面应跟介词to，表示“……的答案，关键”，所以第一空格应排除B、C两项；第二个空应用形容词possible，when possible是when it is possible的省略。
7．C a great relief 一件令人欣慰的事；a long time 一段很长的时间。
8．D 句意为：外交部长说：“我们的希望就是双方共同为和平而努力。”A、C项，指示代词this和that在句中找不出指代的内容，选B意义不通。题干中的that从句应是主语从句，所缺的是形式主语，故选D。
9．B 第一个suggest表示“建议”，其后的宾语从句中用“(should＋)动词原形”表虚拟；第二个suggests意为“暗示，表明”，其后的宾语从句中用陈述语气。block sb./sth. from doing sth.阻止某人/某物做某事。
10．A 考查虚拟语气。句中that引导宾语从句表示一种惊讶的语气，习惯用“should＋动词原形”表示。
11．A 考查形容词辨析。句意为：投资股票有风险也可能有收获，故选A。
12．C 考查动词短语辨析。work out此处意为“产生结果”。
13．C 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：一个不快乐的童年可能对一个人的个性产生一些消极的影响，然而，这种影响也不一定会长久的。practical实际的，实践的；avoidable可以避免的；beneficial有利的，有益的。根据语境只有C项“永久的”符合语义表达。
14．B 根据句中looked为系动词后接形容词sad作表语，再根据so＋adj./adv.置于句首时要引起部分倒装，可判断答案选B。
15．C 句意为：现在许多新技术被用于解决工业问题。apply...to...意为“应用于”，to 是介词，后接名词、代词或动名词等；同时apply和主语technology 之间是被动关系，故选C。
Ⅱ.作者作为一名医生经历了一些事情，这些事情使他有感而发：奇迹就像是生活时事一样。其实人就是一个奇迹，因为通过他们，我们有机会认识我们自己，同时还可以看到其他人的奇迹。
16．B 根据句意可知，这位老人的上颚有点疼。pain是“疼痛”的意思。

18．C 陪她来的80岁的儿子试图想补充点什么。attempt是“试图”的意思，其他选项不符合文意。
19．A 我发现在她的上颚处有一个扩散了的肿瘤。“the roof of the mouth”意思是“上颚”，所以选A。
20．A 经过一系列仔细的检查后，确定那是一个恶性肿瘤。confirm是“确定、确信”的意思。
21．C 根据上下文可知，我向她解释了问题的严重性，所以本题选择C。
22．C 根据上下文可知，老人说：“我知道你关心我，但是我很好”。此处是指身体很好，所以用fine。

24．B 因为老人很善良，所以她想让我开心。

26．C healthy是“健康的”；elegant是“举止文雅的，优美的”；optimistic是“乐观的”；humorous是“幽默的”。根据上下文可知老人对于她的病况并没有感到有多担心，所以应该是乐观的。句意为：六个月后，她再次来到我的办公室，依然是那么的乐观。

28．B 根据上下文可知，看到她我很惊讶，也很困惑。
