1.______ 2.______ 3.______ 4.______ 5.______
6.______ 7.______ 8.______ 9.______ 10.______
答案:
1.flew 根据第二句中的won和 received可知本文的基本时态是一般过去时,讲述的是过去发生的事情,故使用flew。

3.but 句意:在早晨的时候,他们仍然是醉着的,但是他们开着租来的汽车去机场了。上下文之间是转折关系,使用but。
4.lying 本句中的现在分词lying是一个宾语补足语,对宾语a large kangaroo进行解释说明。句意:他看见一只袋鼠躺在路上。因为两者之间构成主动关系,所以使用现在分词,如果构成被动关系,就使用过去分词。
5.the 使用定冠词the表示特指,特指上文出现的同一事物。因为在本段一开始已经出现了a large kangaroo。
6.its 句意:袋鼠睁开了它的眼睛。使用its代替本句的主语the kangaroo,因为它是动物,所以使用it。
7.angry 本句中系动词is后面缺少形容词构成系表结构。
8.away 动词短语run away跑开;本句中的副词away和动词run构成固定搭配。
9.not 句意:你不会相信这样的一件事情的。穿着绿色的夹克衫的袋鼠沿着去机场的路在奔跑。因为这是一件很反常的事情,所以使用否定词。
10.is running 本句是一个直接引语,所以使用现在进行时,表示正在进行的事情。
Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
Today,I read an interesting article about television viewing. In one experiment, families were paid to stop watching TV for either a week or a month. Many could not complete the task and some families even fought, verbally or physically. It was quite interesting and now I will say something about TV.
After TV became a product most families could afford,people bought and started to watch their new TVs. Both adults and children became less creative in problem solving, less able to persevere (坚持)in tasks, and less tolerant of unstructured time.
In my family, we grew up with the TV on. Every weekend, we watched Gun Smoke and Bonanza together as a family. TV provides us with a comfortable background when we want to learn a foreign language at home, and it entertains us cheaply with live action sports, incomparable performing arts and important events of the world. In addition, it educates us about everything from the cells in our body to the galaxies in the universe.
Perhaps it's not even practical to live without television unless our views change abruptly as we get older. I don't think that TV damages us so much as it robs us of time that could be spent doing other things such as learning new skills, getting some exercise or doing volunteer work.
I was lucky to have a family that watched TV together. Today there seems to be a TV in every room of the house and there's no need to agree on a program to watch. To watch TV or not to watch TV is more of a question for adults than for us,and even though we all say we want to cut down the time we spend in front of the tube, we never really do. TV_has_us_hypnotized!
1.The experiment in Paragraph 1 is intended to show ________.
A.how interesting watching TV is
B.how much people like watching TV
C.whether people like watching TV
D.what people do after giving up watching TV
答案:B 根据第一段“In one experiment, families were paid to stop watching TV for either a week or a month.”可推测“强调不看电视时间的长短”,所以选择表示“人们对电视的喜爱程度”的B项。
2.After most families could afford a TV, they became ________.
A.more active at work
B.more crazy in solving problems
C.less tolerant of TV time
D.less concentrated on tasks
答案:D 根据第二段“After TV became a product most families could afford,people bought and started to watch their new TVs...less able to persevere in tasks...”可知:A项显然与原文意思相反;B项的more crazy与原文的less creative意思相反;人们越来越喜欢电视,所以不可能是难以忍受看电视的时间,所以排除C项。
3.According to Paragraph 3, the author and his family ________.
A.spend weekends watching TV in every room
B.get a lot of valuable experience in watching TV
C.want to cut down the time spent in front of TV
D.can afford a TV for each one of the family
答案:B 根据第三段关键词“grew up with the TV”,“provides us with a comfortable background”,“entertains us cheaply”和“educates us about everything...”可以推断,电视给作者及其家人带来了许多宝贵的经历。
4.In the last paragraph the underlined sentence means ________.
A.we are really hooked on our TV
B.we are really proud of our TV
C.TV robs us of available time
D.TV benefits us greatly
答案:A 文章末尾“...even though we all say we want to cut down the time we spend in front of the tube, we never really do...”表示“虽然我们都表示打算削减看电视的时间,但我们从未这么做(因为我们对电视太着迷了)”。
B
We keep reading that TV is bad for you.If this is true,how come the current generation of TVaddicted kids is much smarter than we are?In my home,the only people who can work the remote control are the children.
Perhaps TV does educate you.For example,you learn a useful medical fact:A person who has been shot always has time to speak an incomplete sentence before he dies.“The killer was...”(dies)
But I guess the biggest things we learn from TV can be regarded as“Life Skills”.Bad things only happen on dark and stormy nights.Emotional breakdowns cause people to wander in the heavy rain without umbrellas.And contrary to what scientists say,the crack(霹雳)of lightning and the accompanying flash happen at exactly the same time,wherever you are.
I've even acquired useful geographical facts from sciencefiction shows;Aliens speak English no matter which planet they come from.
Making use of what we learn from TV can improve our security.Consider these truths.If you are ever attacked by 20 bad guys,don't worry about being outnumbered.The criminals will hang back and take turns to approach you in ones and twos just so you can conveniently defeat them all.Bad guys who are completely covered in black clothes always remove their black masks to reveal that they are in fact,aha,women.
TV also teaches us important information about escaping from danger.Watch and learn.(1)If anyone is running after you down a passage,you will find that boxes have been conveniently placed near all the walls you need to jump over.(2)If you are tall and handsome,you can run from any number of armed criminals,and every shot will miss you.
Be warned,however.If your name card says“henchman”(帮凶)and you are part of a group of plainlooking people trying to catch a handsome individual,a single shot will kill you.But don't be anxious:TV also delivers useful information for bad guys.All cars are inflammable(易燃的)and have amazing shock absorbers that enable them to fly into the air and land without damageexcept police cars.
TV even teaches about TV.Whenever anyone turns on a TV,it shows a news flash about someone they know.They then turn the box off immediately after that news item.
5.By saying“A person who has been shot always has time to speak an incomplete sentence before he dies”(Paragraph 2),the writer shows his ________.
A.humor B.sympathy
C.deep concern D.medical knowledge
答案:A 推理判断题。作者说影视剧里面人临死前都有时间说一句不完整的话可以教我们懂得一个医疗常识,实际上是幽默了我们一下。故答案为A。
6.We can infer from Paragraph 3 that in the real world ________.
A.bad things cause people to break down in the rain
B.bad things never happen on dark and stormy nights
C.people with emotional problems like to walk in the rain without umbrellas
D.the crack of lightning and the accompanying flash don't happen at the same time
答案:D 推理判断题。由该段中的“And contrary to what scientists say,the crack(霹雳)of lightning and the accompanying flash happen at exactly the same time”可知答案为D项。
7.On TV what usually happens when a person turns it on?
A.The news shown is always about someone the person knows.
B.The person always turns off the TV when it's time for news.
C.The program shown is always about the importance of TV.
D.TV always shows news about famous people.
答案:A 细节理解题。由最后一段中的“Whenever anyone turns on a TV,it shows a news flash about someone they know.”可知答案为A项。
8.What's the main idea of this passage?
A.Life skills can be learned from TV.
B.TV plays an important role in society.
C.Watching TV makes people more creative.
D.What happens in TV is very different from reality.
答案:D 主旨大意题。文章中列举了大量的事实,都是在说明很多影视节目中的情节是违反现实生活常识的。故答案为D项。

答案:
It is a common sight to see many young people engaged in emailing, twittering or chatting using their smartphones, which might be the best choice to kill time when they are on dull journey.
They are called Smartphone Addicts, who are buried in using their smartphones or laptops without raising their heads. This is very harmful. On the one hand, they keep away from their friends or family. On the other hand, being busy with their smartphones can cause accidents, which brings them more pains than pleasure.
As a matter of fact, they can take up reading to kill the time during their trips. Reading books or newspapers can also enrich their knowledge. The pleasure from reading is a pleasant experience they can't have from using smartphones.
