　　(2016·广西桂林一模)Our experience at the Childrens Medical Care Center was eye­opening. We saw a lot of children without hair due to their radioactive treatment.

　　One day, an incident deeply touched us. A girl suggested that she teach us how to fold paper. She taught us __3__ great patience, explaining each step slowly and clearly. Though we could easily do that, we still pretended to know nothing about it. We followed her, step by step, doing everything she told us. Finally, when we finished our work __4__ (success), she gave each of us __5__ big hug. We could see the pride and happiness on her face.

　　1．were　考查动词的时态和主谓一致。由于文章叙述的是过去发生的事，所以此处应用一般过去时，且分析句子结构可知，“be”在句中作谓语，主语为“The children”。故填were。

　　2．had expected　考查动词的时态。根据句子大意可知，从句动作“expect”发生在主句谓语“was”之前。故填had expected，强调发生在过去的过去，应用过去完成时。

　　3．with　考查介词。根据句子大意可知，“______ great patience”在句中作伴随状语，表示这个女孩怀着极大的耐心教作者他们折纸。故填with。

　　4．successfully　考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，空格处在句中修饰谓语动词“finished”，需用success的副词形式。故填successfully。

　　5．a　考查冠词。give sb. a hug是固定短语，意为“给某人一个拥抱”。故填a。

　　6．that　考查强调句型。分析句子结构可知，把“it was”和空格处所填词去掉，剩余部分是一个完整的句子，故该句应为强调句型。故填that。

　　7．valuable　考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，空格处在句中修饰名词experience，需用所给词的形容词形式。故填valuable。

　　8．their　考查代词。根据句子结构和大意可知，and前后两个短语为并列关系，故空格处所缺词相当于the childrens。故填their。

　　9．to reflect　考查非谓语动词。inspire sb. to do sth.是固定用法，意为“激励某人去做某事”，符合语境。故填to reflect。

　　10．mentioning　考查非谓语动词。worth 后常跟 doing，意为“……值得被做”，用主动形式表示被动含义。故填mentioning。

　　(限时：45分钟)

　　Ⅰ.语法填空

　　(2016·四川攀枝花市第三次统考)My interest in Chinese food started years ago, when I was a young reporter for the Washington Post. Our office wasn’t far __1__ Chinatown, where I found some very good Chinese restaurants.

　　The first time I ever ate Chinese food, I loved it. I __2__ (notice) the fresh taste of the meat and vegetables. When I learned more about the food, I began to understand why __3__ has this special feature.

　　Many years ago, China had __4__ energy crisis because it lost much of its wood due to overpopulation and poor __5__ (manage) of its forests. This loss was very bad for the country, of course, but it turned out to be very good for the food. Wood became very expensive and hard to get, so the Chinese had to either find a substitute for their __6__ (value) wood, or learn how to use it better. There weren’t any substitutes so people found ways to economize.

　　In order to economize in __7__ (cook), they had to use very little wood. So they started cutting their meat and vegetables into small pieces before they put them in the hot oil. That way, the food cooked __8__ (fast) and they saved more fuel. The food __9__ (prepare) in this way kept its fresh flavor — and it’s this flavor __10__ attracts people from other countries to the art of Chinese cooking.

　　1．________　2.________　3.________　4.________

　　5．________　6.________　7.________　8.________

　　9．________　10.________

　　语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了作者对中国食物的热爱和中国烹饪的由来。1．from　考查介词。句意：我们的办公室离唐人街不远……be far from意为“离……远”，符合句意。故填from。

　　2．noticed　考查动词的时态。根据上下文的时态可知，此处应用一般过去时。故填noticed。

　　3．it　考查代词。句意：当我对这种食物了解得更多时，我开始明白为什么这种食物会如此特别。空格处与前一分句中的“the food”为同一事物，为了避免重复，故用代词“it”指代“the food”。故填it。

　　4．an　考查冠词。句意：多年以前，中国发生了一次能源危机……空格处修饰“energy crisis”，表示泛指，crisis在该句中为可数名词单数，且“energy”的读音以元音音素开头，因此填不定冠词an。

　　5．management　考查词性转换。根据空格前的形容词poor及空格后的介词of可知，空格处应为名词。故填management。

　　6．valuable　考查词性转换。空格后是名词wood，因此应用所给词的形容词形式修饰wood。故填valuable。

　　7．cooking　考查词性转换。介词in后用名词、代词或动名词。cook作名词时意为“厨师”，不合句意，因此要用其动名词形式cooking，意为“烹饪”。

　　8．faster　考查副词的比较级。“the food cooked ________”与and后的“they saved more fuel”是并列关系，故此处也应用副词fast的比较级faster。

　　9．prepared　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，句子的谓语动词是kept，故prepare是非谓语动词。prepare与主语the food之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，因此用其过去分词形式。故填prepared。

　　10．that　考查强调句型。去掉its和空格后，句子剩余部分结构和意义都完整。由此可知，本句是一个强调句。故填that。

　　参考范文：

　　Dear Peter，

　　I’m writing to tell you something about e­hongbao, which is becoming popular in China.

　　E­hongbao is actually a kind of lucky money from and to relatives and friends during festivals or on special occasions. For many young people, grabbing e­hongbao on their mobile phones is a fairly common and exciting activity. Unlike the tradition of elders giving lucky money to children, over half of the people sending e­hongbao are in their 20s. It’s just for fun or giving best wishes, while the sum of money matters little. In a word, e­hongbao is bringing new color to the old tradition.

　　Nevertheless, I’m concerned about the safety of on­line payment. So rules and regulations need to be improved regarding the e­hongbao system to guarantee its operation.

　　Best wishes.

　　Yours，

　　Li Hua
