__1__ Unlike student loans, scholarships do not have to be repaid. Hundreds of thousands of scholarships from several thousand sponsors are awarded each year.
Generally, scholarships are reserved for students with special qualifications. __2__ Awards are also available for students who are interested in particular fields of study, who live in certain areas of the country or who demonstrate financial needs.
__3__ Fastweb is such a searcher. It compares your background with the database of awards. Only those awards that fit your profile are identified as matches. There are several free scholarship databases available online. “The Fastweb scholarship search is the largest, most accurate and most frequentlyupdated scholarship database. If you supply an email address, they will inform you when new awards that match your profile are added to the database. __4__
Scholarships come in all shapes and sizes. Knowing and searching the types of scholarships that are out there will ensure that you find any and every scholarship for which you qualify.
Students who are awarded scholarships often need additional financial assistance. __5__ To find out about grants and other aid types, visit the section discussing Other Types of Aid. For businessmen and philanthropists (慈善家) who are thinking about sponsoring a new scholarship, find the Scholarship Design & Management section.
A. Students can apply for scholarships from their teachers.
B. See the Loans section for information on student and parent loans.
C. The best way to search for scholarships is to use a personalized searcher.
D. Scholarships are a form of aid that helps students pay for their education.
E. However, it is very difficult for students to get the special qualifications.
F. Those who have academic, athletic or artistic talent are likely to be awarded.
G. Fastweb also includes a college search and numerous other student resources.
答案与解析
语篇解读 文章主要论述的是奖学金问题,奖学金一般给那些成绩好或有特殊资质的学生。此外,文章也特别提到了Fastweb网站的一些情况。
1.D 结合全文的叙述以及空后内容可知,此处应该谈的是奖学金问题,故D项“奖学金是一种援助,帮学生支付教育费用”符合语境,这也是本文的中心句。
2.F 空前说“奖学金是留给那些有特殊资质的学生”,那么接下来文章应该对这个话题进行说明,故F项“有学术、运动或艺术才能的人可能获得奖励”符合语境。
3.C 空后说“Fastweb is such a searcher”,那么前面就会谈到,搜索奖学金最好的办法就是使用个性化搜索引擎。故正确答案为C。
4.G 空前说“If you supply an...”,由此可推断出,此空应该继续说Fastweb的一些情况,故G项“在Fastweb上可以搜索大学以及许多其他学生资源”符合语境。
5.B 空前说“获得奖学金的学生常常需要额外的经济资助”,那么接下来文章就会谈一些学生和父母贷款的信息,故B项“在贷款部分看学生和家长贷款的贷款信息”符合语境。
三、语法填空
(2016·河北保定调研)
Over the years I've been teaching kids about a simple but powerful concept—the ant philosophy (哲学), an __1__ (amaze) fourpart philosophy.
First, ants never quit. If they're heading somewhere and you try to stop them, they'll climb over, they'll climb under, or they'll climb around. They never quit __2__ (look) for a way to get to where they __3__ (suppose) to go! Second, ants think about winter and summer. They are always gathering in their winter food in the middle of summer and they are making __4__ (prepare) for the long cold winter. So you have to think about storms in summer; think about rocks __5__ you enjoy the sand and sun. Third, ants think about summer all winter. During winter, they remind __6__, “This won't last long and we'll soon be out of here.” On __7__ first warm day, the ants go out. If it __8__ (turn) cold again, they'll dive back down.
But they come out again if it is warm. Last, how much will an ant gather during summer to prepare for winter? All that it __9__ (possible) can. __10__ you can learn from the ant philosophy is: never give up, look ahead, stay positive and do all you can.
答案与解析
语篇解读 本文主要介绍了蚂蚁哲学的四个部分。
1.amazing 考查词类转换。所填词修饰philosophy,表示事物的特征、性质,应用ing形式的形容词,故填amazing。
2.looking 考查固定用法。quit doing sth.意为“停止做某事”。故填looking。
3.are supposed 考查时态和语态。they与suppose为动宾关系,且此处应用一般现在时;又因主语是they,故填are supposed。
4.preparations 考查固定搭配。make preparations for sth.意为“为某事做准备”,是固定短语。
5.when 考查连词。when意为“当……时”,在此引导时间状语从句。
6.themselves 考查代词。此处指提醒“自己”。结合语境可知,they指代ants,故填themselves。
7.the 考查冠词。此处表示“第……”,序数词前常用定冠词the。
8.turns 考查时态和语态。此处叙述的是将来的情况,if引导的条件状语从句用一般现在时表示将来;主语it与turn为主谓关系,故填turns。
9.possibly 考查副词。副词possibly修饰动词,作状语。
10.What 考查主语从句。________you can learn from the ant philosophy是主语从句,且从句中缺少宾语,所填词起双重代词的作用,且位于句首,故应用What。
四、短文改错
Recently, Robert Whiting, an elderly gentleman with 83, arrived in Paris by plane. At customs, he took a few minute to look for his passport. “You had been to France before, sir?” the customs officer asked joking. Mr. Whiting admitted to that he had been to France previously. “Then you should know enough to have my passport ready.” The American said, “The last time I was here, I didn't have to show them.” “Impossible. Americans always have to show passports on arrival in France!” The American gave the Frenchman long hard look. Then he quietly explained, “Well, when I came in 1944 to help liberating this country, I couldn't find some Frenchmen to show it to.”

Everyone_has_a_person_he_wants_to_say_thankyou_to_in_his_deep_heart._I_owe_my_great_gratitude_to_my_mother.
My mother is a primary school teacher who graduated from a teachers college. She is a devoted mother as well as a kind and patient teacher. I was attended considerately by her every day, especially this year when I am in Senior Three. She often cooks delicious dishes for me and helps me clean up my room. What's more, she even accompanies me deep into the night every time I am doing my homework. Most important of all, whenever I get upset or lose heart, she will comfort me and encourage me until I have cheered up. I appreciate her motto “Heaven will always leave a door open. As long as you work hard, you will definitely succeed.”
So now I spare no efforts in studying and focus all my attention on my lessons in order to be admitted to a famous university next year, so that I can reward my mother.
