　　Jonny：Hey! I'm just practicing Tai Chi(太极). Would you like to join me?

　　Peter：I feel my legs shaking. I cannot do this any longer.

He controls you!

　　Peter：Unbelievable! Oh... __9__ you don't mind, I'll stop and take a deep __10__.

　　答案与解析

　　本文是两人关于太极拳的对话。约翰尼在教彼得一些简单动作并向他介绍一些相关知识。

　　1．at　句意：不要嘲笑我，我看起来很可笑。laugh at 意为“嘲笑”。

　　2．softly　句意：膝盖微弯，自然地，缓缓伸出手臂，像树枝一样。所填词与naturally 是并列关系，共同修饰动词短语reach out，故填softly。

　　3．painful　句意：我的腿痛。become 在此是系动词，后面应填形容词。故填painful。

　　4．holding　句意：保持姿势一会儿。keep doing... 意为“继续做某事”。故填holding。

　　5．it　代指前面的your leg, 故填it。

　　6．is called　句意：太极在英语中被称作shadow boxing。Tai Chi 与call 之间为动宾关系，要用被动语态。又因说话者在介绍一般事实，要用一般现在时。故填is called。

　　7．as　句意：它使你的行动像水一样既灵活又有力。as well as 为固定短语，意为“既……又……”。故填as。

　　8．harder　句意：你越用车去打他，你越容易被打。The more..., the more... 为固定句式，意为“越……，越……。”故填harder。

　　9．if　句意：如果你不介意的话，你就停下来深吸一口气。本句为条件状语从句，故填if。

　　10．breath　句意同上。take a deep breath 为固定短语，意为“深吸一口气”，故填breath。

　　Passage 2

　　(2017·广东卷)

　　Last year, my brother and I went to Miami for a vacation. Some of my friends who had been there before said __1__ was a wonderful holiday destination. Before we went, we had planned for months. When the day came, we were ready.

　　After our plane landed, we went to the hotel. We had made our reservation six months __2__ (early), but the man at the front desk said there had been a mistake. We __3__(tell)that our rooms hadn't been reserved for that week, __4__ for the week after. I didn't understand __5__ this would happen and my credit card had already been charged __6__ the reservation. What's worse, the hotel had been fully booked.

We had never stayed in such an amazing room, and we weren't charged extra.

　　The next day, my brother and I went to the beach __9__ we watched some people play volleyball. We got a little __10__(sunburn)，but the day had been so relaxing that we didn't mind.

　　答案与解析

　　本文讲述了“我”和弟弟去迈阿密旅游所遇到的意外和惊喜。

　　1．it　句意：曾经去过那里的一些朋友说那里是一个非常棒的度假胜地。设空处指代上文提到的Miami，故填it。

　　2．earlier　句意：我们提前六个月就预订好了，但是前台工作人员告诉我们出了点差错。本句出现了过去完成时，可以断定此处指六个月之前就预订好了宾馆。earlier 意为“提早的”，在此修饰six months。

　　3．were told　句意：我们被告知我们的房间不是为了那个星期订的，而是为后一个星期订的。主语we和动词tell 之间为被动关系，且文章主要时态是过去时，故填were told。

　　4．but　本题考查but 的用法。句意见上题解析。not...but... 为固定短语，意为“不是……而是……”。故填but。

　　5．why　句意：我不明白为什么会发生这样的事情，而且我的信用卡也早已因预订扣了款。根据语义可知填why。

　　6．for　句意见上题解析。charge sb./sth. for sth. 为固定短语，意为“因……而向某人/物收取费用”。故填for。

　　7．surprisingly　句意：她出人意料地给我们提供了(热情)的帮助。修饰形容词应用副词形式，故填surprisingly。

　　8．the　句意：经理向我们道歉并把一间备用的顶楼的VIP房间给了我们。top 具有序数词的语义特点，序数词前要加定冠词the。故填the。

　　9．where　句意：第二天，我和弟弟去了海边，在那里看人们打排球。先行词是地点名词beach，定语从句中缺少地点状语，故填where。

　　10．sunburnt/sunburned　句意：虽然有点被太阳灼伤，但是那一天我们过得是如此的惬意，根本不在乎这一点小事。动词用于get 之后常用过去分词形式，表被动。故填sunburnt。

　　父亲有一个习惯，修东西时总是让“我”拿着锤子和“我”聊天。上大学后父亲每个周日都会给“我”打电话和“我”聊天。他所需要的仅仅是和“我”聊天而已，而“我”却总是很忙。如今，父亲已过世，想和他聊天，人却已不在。

　　3．If/When/While　考查状语从句。根据语境可知，此空既可以用引导条件状语从句的If“如果”，也可以用引导时间状语从句的When/While。

　　4．easier　考查形容词的比较级。由空前的much可知，此处应用easy的比较级形式。

　　“Okay，Daddy！”said the boy，running out of the room.Five minutes later，the boy returned __3__(scream)，“Daddy，Let's play catch now！”

　　By this time，the father had opened another cold beer and another match was beginning.__4__(patient) with the boy's interruption, the dad brought a magazine to his son. On the cover of the magazine was a large picture of the world. The father, who was angry and__5__(bother), began tearing the magazine cover into small__6__. Then, the father turned to his boy and said, “Son, once you put this picture back together, we can play catch, but do not interrupt me again__7__you finish.”

　　“__10__was simple，” said the boy. “On the back of the world was the picture of a person, and once I put the person together, that's when the world came together.”

　　答案与解析

　　这是一个小故事，孩子不断打断父亲，要父亲陪他出去练球，在看电视的父亲是如何支开孩子，孩子又做了些什么呢？

　　1．a　考查冠词。语境表示父亲正在看一场篮球比赛，故应在单数可数名词match 前加冠词a，泛指“一场比赛”。

　　2．at　考查介词。这里用stare at 表示“盯着……看”。

　　3．screaming　考查非谓语动词。本空所在句子的两个动词return 和 scream 之间没有连词，因此本空用现在分词做伴随状语。

　　4．Impatient　考查形容词。从语境的连贯看，这里应该用形容词短语impatient with做状语，表示“对……不耐烦”。

　　5．bothered　考查动词。语境表示父亲很生气，很恼火，动词bother 在这里用被动语态be bothered 表示“被打扰”。

　　6．pieces　考查名词搭配。这里用tear...into pieces 表示“把……撕成碎片”。

　　7．until/before　考查状语从句。语境表示“在你做完之前不要来打扰我”，故用until 或before 引导时间状语从句。

　　8．have finished　考查时态。孩子说他把事情做完了，故用现在完成时表示从过去开始并延续到当前的动作。

　　9．there　考查句式。这里用there lay 句式表示“……就在那里放着”。

　　10．It/That/This　考查代词。这里用代词it, that 或 this 指代前面提到的“把这些碎片粘贴到一起”。

　　Passage 9

　　gift of pure love that my son and daughter gave me that day.

　　答案与解析

　　作者家里很穷，只能给孩子们买打折的玩具作为圣诞礼物，可孩子们却因为有礼物而高兴不已。

　　1．struggling　考查非谓语动词。修饰名词teacher应用现在分词struggling，表示“奋斗的”。

　　2．so/and　考查连词。前后两句为顺承关系，也可为因果关系，故填so或者and。

　　3．sold　考查非谓语动词。sell与toys存在动宾关系，故应用sold做found的宾语补足语。

　　4．had hidden　考查时态。hide的动作发生在opened之前，故应用过去完成时。

　　5．them/the gifts　考查代词或名词。此处指的是那些礼物，故填the gifts或them。

　　6．eyes/faces　考查固定搭配。one's eyes/face light(s) up表示“眼中/脸上流露出喜悦”。

　　7．happily　考查副词。修饰动词应用副词happily。

　　8．for　考查介词。此处用介词for表示“达，计”。

　　9．greatest　考查形容词的最高级。由“I had ever been given”可知，此处表示“最好的礼物”。

　　10．the　考查冠词。名词gift后有定语修饰，故其前应用定冠词the。

　　Passage 10

　　(2017·昆明教学质量检测)

　　American English has its own idioms. Let's say you buy something in a shop. And __1__ you pay for it, you say: this cost __2__ an arm and a leg! What do you really mean by __3__ (say) so? Do you have to give them your arm and your leg? I hope not. Let's listen to an American English conversation __4__(see) if we can find out what this means.

　　A：Did you buy that new computer?

　　B：Yeah, I did. But I __5__ have bought it.

　　A：Why do you say so? Is there anything wrong with it?

　　B：Not exactly, but, as a matter of fact, it cost the way more than I __6__ (expect) it to be.

　　A：__7__ did you pay for it?

　　B：Let me just tell you it cost an arm and a leg! When you say in American English that something costs an arm and a leg, it actually means that __8__ price is very, very high, much __9__ (high) than we can accept. If you use this __10__ in the United States, everyone there will understand you. But this is an informal phrase, so don't use it in a formal business setting.

　　答案与解析

　　本文介绍了美国英语中的一个习语。

　　1．when/after　考查连词。此处表示为所买的东西付款时或付完款后会说这个习语，因此填when/after。

　　2．me　考查双宾语。cost后接双宾语，构成cost sb. sth.，应填入人称代词的宾语，结合语境可知，填me。

　　3．saying　考查非谓语动词。by为介词，因此其后的动词应作用动词­ing 形式。

　　4．to see　考查动词不定式/并列连词。此处可以填入动词不定式做目的状语，因此填入to see。

　　5．shouldn't/oughtn't to　考查虚拟语气。根据“But”提示可知，此处表示“买了，但本不应该买”。shouldn't/oughtn't to have done 表示“本不应该做而实际上做了”。

　　6．expected/had expected　考查时态。此处cost 为过去式，表示花的钱比原来预计的要多，因此可使用过去时，如果强调“过去的过去”，也可以使用过去完成时。

　　7．How much　考查疑问词。此处是问付了多少钱，因此填入How much。

　　8．the　考查冠词。此处表示特指意义，因此名词前填定冠词the。

　　9．higher　考查形容词的比较级。根据“than”提示可知，此处使用high的比较级higher。

　　10．phrase/idiom/expression　考查名词。根据文章的第一句及最后一句可知，可填入idiom或phrase，因为expression表示“词组”，因此也可以将其填入。

　　Passage 11

　　(2017·广州调研测试)

　　Robert Burns is the most famous poet to write in Scots, the traditional language of Scotland.

　　Born in Ayrshire, Scotland to a poor farming family, his parents made sure that he was well educated as a child. In 1783 he started composing poetry __1__ a traditional style using the Ayrshire dialect of Scots. These poems were well received __2__ (local) and in 1786 they were published in the volume, Poems, Chiefly, __3__ made him famous in Scotland overnight.

　　__4__， his fame was not accompanied by money and he found __5__ necessary to return to farming. __6__ this also proved unprofitable, he entered government service in 1789.

　　Today, his memory __9__ (celebrate) by Burns clubs across the world and his birthday is __10__ unofficial “National Day” for Scots and those with Scottish ancestry, celebrated with Burns suppers.

　　答案与解析

　　本文介绍了英国诗人罗伯特·彭斯的一些情况。

　　1．in　由句中的关键词style 可知应填in，表示某事完成或发生的方式。

　　2．locally　此处修饰动词，故用副词形式。

　　3．which　此处是which引导的非限制性定语从句，which 在从句中做主语。

　　4．However　“his fame was not accompanied by money”和上一段最后一句中的“made him famous in Scotland overnight”之间存在逻辑上的转折关系，因此用However。

　　5．it　此处it 做形式宾语，necessary 是宾语补足语，动词不定式短语to return to farming 是真正的宾语。

　　6．When　空处表示“当……的时候”，故用When。

　　7．dating　poor working conditions 和 date 之间是主谓关系，因此用动词的­ing形式。

　　8．to support　此处用动词不定式做目的状语。

　　9．is celebrated　句子主语memory 和动词celebrate 之间是动宾关系，主语是单数形式，时间状语是Today，因此用一般现在时的被动语态。

　　10．an　句中的unofficial “National Day”是泛指，故在unofficial 前加不定冠词an。

　　Passage 12

　　(2017·吉林二模)

　　Susan：I'm so glad to see you, David.__1__has been such a long time. How are you?

　　David：I'm fine, and you?

　　Susan：I'm just wonderful. God, time goes by so quickly! Are you going to the air quality conference in Chicago?

　　David：I am. And I'm really glad to see you. Just last night I found your name in the conference materials，but it didn't come to my__2__that we would meet on the plane.

　　Susan：I'm afraid I haven't had time to look at__3__conference materials very carefully. I had no idea you were coming, but I am certainly glad to see you. I was feeling very nervous about going there__4__friends.

　　David：I can imagine. My English has gotten not so fluent since I returned from the United States，__5__I'm rather nervous myself. But I saw that you__6__(give) the most important talk at the conference.

　　Susan：__7__(frank) speaking, I'm scared to death about it.

　　David：I'm just giving a talk in one of the workshop sections, and I hope I won't make all of you__8__(disappoint)．

　　Susan：But your English is much__9__(good) than mine.

　　David：But you're now the Director of the Air Quality Institute, so you__10__know the technical terms.

　　Susan：Maybe. But I still can't understand totally a lot of technical terms in my field.

　　答案与解析

　　Susan 与 David 在飞机上相遇，他们要去芝加哥开空气质量会，二人对于会议上的讲话十分忐忑，彼此交流了内心的紧张情绪。

　　1．It　考查代词。it可以指代时间、距离、价值等。在本句中，it 指代时间。

　　2．mind　考查名词。come to one's mind 表示“某人想起”。后半句句意：但是我没想到我们会在飞机上相遇。由句意可知，应填mind。

　　3．the 考查冠词。定冠词the 用来指代上文提到的事物，conference materials 在上文已出现，故用the 修饰。

　　4．without　考查介词。在没有朋友的情况下才会紧张，故用without。

　　5．so/therefore/thus　考查连词。“英语不流利”与“紧张”之间为因果关系，故用so/therefore/thus。

　　6．would give/were giving　考查时态。根据上文内容提示，Susan 还未出席会议，由此推断“在会议上讲话”发生在将来。且由宾语从句前的saw 判断，谓语动词应使用过去将来时。

　　7．Frankly　考查固定搭配。frankly speaking 表示“坦白地说”。

　　8．disappointed　考查形容词。空处在句中做宾语补足语，应用“disappointed(沮丧的，失望的)”来修饰宾语“all of you”。

　　9．better　考查形容词比较级。根据修饰比较级的much与than提示，可知应填better。

　　10．must　考查情态动词。must表示肯定推测。“但你现在是空气质量局的主任，那么你一定了解相关的专业术语。”由句意可知，应填must。

　　Passage 13

　　(2017·豫东、豫北十所名校检测四)

　　Tom：Have you heard the local newspaper The Times is closing down in three months' time?

　　Mary：Then that's good news. That newspaper is terrible. I won't miss it.

　　Tom：__1__ do you mean? The Times is the best newspaper in the city. If that __2__ (close) down, we'll only have The Pioneer and the City Journal, which is too bad.

　　Mary：You only like The Times __3__ it takes up to 20 pages every day with sports. The City Journal is a great paper. And you don't like it because it devotes less than 5 pages every day __4__ baseball results.

　　Torn：This is a baseball city. We've got a great team. Why shouldn't we read about it? Where are we going to get the results now?

　　Mary：I think a newspaper needs to meet all the __5__ (need) of its readers，not just that of those __6__ like sports.

　　Tom：Then what about the Job Section in The Times? That is one of the most __7__

　　(use) parts of it. Every business, every store in the city knows if they want to get someone __8__ (work) for them，they have to put some ads in The Times. How are all these people going to get work now？This will __9__ (absolute) destroy the local economy.

　　Mary：Destroy the local economy, will it? I admit the Job Section is pretty good in The Times, __10__ either one of the other two newspapers will just get the ads instead. That's how things work.

　　答案与解析

　　三周之后，《泰晤士报》要退出报纸界，喜欢该报纸的Tom与Mary，就此事展开争论，两人各执己见。

　　1．What　考查特殊疑问词。“你是什么意思啊？”由句意可知，应填What。

　　2．closes/is closed　考查时态和语态。if条件句中用一般现在时表将来。close作及物动词或不及物动词均可，故填closes或closed。

　　3．because　考查连词。主从句构成因果关系，故用because。该句意思是：你仅仅是因为《泰晤士报》每天有20页的版面涉及体育才喜欢它。

　　4．to　考查介词。“devote...to...”为固定搭配，表示 “把……奉献给/致力于……”。

　　5．needs　考查名词。表示“所有读者的需要”应用need的复数形式needs。

　　6．who　考查定语从句。先行词为those，指人，故用who连接定语从句，充当从句的主语。

　　7．useful　考查形容词。空前有the most修饰，由此推断，此处为形容词的最高级形式，故填useful。

　　8．to work　考查固定搭配。get作为使役动词的用法为“get sb.to do sth.”，故空处应填to work。

　　9．absolutely　考查副词。修饰动词应用副词，故应用absolutely。

　　10．but　考查上下文逻辑关系。我承认《泰晤士报》上的工作板块确实不错，但另外两家报纸中的任何一家也都有广告。由句意可知，并列句的前后分句构成逻辑上的转折关系，故用but。

　　Passage 14

　　Madam：That's fine. Thanks for coming to see us. I will let you know about the job within the week.

　　答案与解析

　　本文为一场面试的对话。Daniel不想安于现状，于是去另外一家公司面试经理的职位。

　　1．How　考查特殊疑问词。问句句子成分完整，且由答语中的方式状语“through such famous brands”可知，问句应用How提问。

　　2．your　考查形容词性物主代词。Daniel回答的是这位女士的问题。由上文内容推知，这位女士在这家公司工作，故用your。

　　3．something　考查代词。something about...意为“关于……的信息”。本句意思是：请告诉我关于你过去工作成就的一些信息吧。由句意可知，应填something。

　　4．working　考查状语从句的省略现象。“I”与“work”之间为主动关系，故用working。

　　5．by　考查介词。“by＋数量词”表示“升降、增减的程度”。后半句句意：我成功地提高了25%的年度销售额。

　　6．because　考查连词。问句提问的是Daniel换工作的原因。空格处后解释说明了原因。故用because引导状语从句。

　　7．opportunities　考查名词。more为many的比较级，其后应用opportunity的复数形式。

　　8．choice　考查名词。“made”为动词，其后应接choose的名词形式做宾语，故填choice。“made the choice”相当于“chose”。

　　9．have checked　考查时态。and连接的并列句中，时态一致。且本句用现在完成时表示对现在造成的影响，“The working conditions are so excellent here.”。

　　10．sincerely　考查副词。修饰动词hope应用副词，故用sincere的副词形式sincerely。

　　Passage 15

　　(2017·河北邯郸一模)

　　Linda: We offer them three __1__ (choose): the end of March, the middle of April and the beginning of May, and they chose the earliest __2__， which is good actually with exams __3__ (come) up in May.

　　Simon：Right. And how many are coming? Did you say about 8?

　　Linda：Yes, they said 8 at first, but __4__ (change) to 6 this morning.

　　Simon: Good, we have 5 weeks to prepare. Here are my suggestions. On the first day, a welcome party, then they can visit __5__ schools in the district on the second and third days.

　　Linda: We've got to remember this group wants to look at how the Internet is being __6__(use) in the classroom. That's __7__ they are coming for.

　　Simon：Exactly, __8__ I want to ask Mr. Todd to give them a talk on this on the afternoon of the third day.

　　Linda：That will fit in very __9__(nice)．

　　Simon：And on the last day, they would do some sightseeing. We could take them on the tour of London, but many of them __10__ have been there already, and Scotland will be too far away.

　　Linda: Why not take them for a walk along the coast? It should be interesting.

　　Simon：Good idea! Linda. I'm sure they'll like it.

　　答案与解析

　　本文主要讲述了Linda 与Simon 对中国游客的英国之旅之前的筹备安排。

　　1．choices　考查名词。空前有数词three 修饰，故应用choose 的复数名词形式choices。

　　2．one　考查代词。one 表示泛指，用来指代上文中提到的单数可数名词，在本句中指代的是choice。

　　3．coming　考查非谓语动词。此处为with 的复合结构“with＋宾语＋宾语补足语”。“come up”为不及物动词短语，无被动形式，且与exam 构成逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词形式。

　　4．changed　考查时态。but连接并列的谓语动词，在时态上两者一致。句意：他们开始说8人，但今早改成了6人。

　　5．the　考查冠词。schools 后有定语“in the district”修饰，故表示特指，应填the。

　　6．used　考查时态和语态。how 引起的宾语从句使用的是现在进行时的被动语态，形式为“is being used”。

　　7．what　考查连词。That's后为表语从句，从句缺少宾语，且由句意“那是他们此行的目的”可以推知，应填what。

　　8．so　考查连词。so 表示顺承或因果关系，承接上句“That's what they are coming for”，本句表示“因此我想让Todd 先生在第三天下午就此发表谈论”。

　　9．nicely　考查副词。修饰动词或动词短语应用副词，nice 应改为nicely。

　　10．may/might　考查情态动词。我们可以带他们去伦敦旅行，但他们很多人可能已经去过那，而且苏格兰也太远。由句意可知应填“may/might”，表示预测。

　　Passage 16

　　(2017·石家庄质检二)

　　Alice：Hi，Peter! I saw you on the 7 o'clock news last night.

　　Peter：Oh，yeah.

　　Alice：So tell us what happened?

　　Peter：I __1__(walk) alone on the beach when I heard someone__2__(call) out for help.I looked up and there on the headland was a little kid.He had climbed up the cliff(悬崖)and was stuck.

　　Alice：What did you do then?

　　Peter：My first thought was to run and get help，but the boy was crying.He looked as though he would fall at__3__moment.So I climbed up to get him down.The rocks were very loose.and I almost__4__(slip) a couple of times.I was beginning to think__5__wasn't a good idea to climb up there alone and that I__6__(get) help first.Then I reached the boy.__7__，I couldn't get him down.We were both stuck!

　　Alice：And then what did you do?

　　Peter：I shouted for help.Pretty soon there came__8__small crowd on the beach.One of them called the Coast Rescue Service.About five minutes__9__there appeared a helicopter overhead，and we__10__(rescue)．

　　答案与解析

　　本对话中Peter向Alice讲述了他在海边散步时营救一个孩子的艰难过程。

　　1．was walking　考查时态。根据语境可知，此处是在陈述过去的某一时间正在发生的事情，故应用过去进行时。

　　2．calling　考查非谓语动词。hear sb.doing sth.表示“听见某人正在做某事”，故填calling。

　　3．any　考查固定短语。at any moment是一个固定短语，表示“随时”。

　　4．slipped　考查时态。此处只是在叙述过去发生的事情，因此用一般过去时。

　　5．it　考查it做形式主语。此处it是形式主语，代替句中真正的主语“to climb up there alone”。

　　6．should have gotten　考查虚拟语气。Peter认为他本应该先寻求帮助，而不是一个人来营救孩子，故应用should have done表示“本应该做而没有做”。

　　7．However　考查副词。句中的“Then I reached the boy.”和“I couldn't get him down”是转折关系，故用However。

　　8．a　考查冠词。crowd表示“一群人”时是可数名词，故用a。

　　9．later　考查副词。句中的“there appeared a helicopter”说明，大约过了五分钟一架直升机出现了。故填later。

　　10．were rescued　考查时态和语态。主语we和动词rescue之间存在逻辑上的动宾关系，且陈述的是过去的事情，故应用were rescued。

　　Tessa：Yes. And maybe you could persuade him to come and pick you up from Christine's house once or twice.

　　Rosemary：Yes.I don't think he'll agree to that, but I'll talk to him about it. Thanks.

　　答案与解析

　　本文是一篇对话。在一个热线电话中讨论了女孩的父亲不让女孩晚上晚归的事情。

　　1．who　考查定语从句。根据句子结构来判断，此处是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词为Tessa Colbeck，指人，在从句中做主语，要用who引导。

　　2．calling　考查非谓语动词。从句子的结构来看，此处是非谓语动词做定语，修饰Rosemary，意思是“是从Manchester打来电话的Rosemary”。

　　3．won't let　考查谓语动词。句意：他不允许我在晚上10点之后还待在外边。根据句子后面的“but all my friends can stay out much longer”可知，这里表示否定的意思。

　　4．time　考查名词。再过两个月我就15岁了。in two months' time表示“再过两个月”。

　　5．longer　考查形容词比较级。句中表示“比我待的时间长”，因空后面有than，故要用形容词比较级。

　　6．to　考查介词。根据句意可知，此处表示“到9：45”，要用介词to。之前提到不能待到10点之后，故不用past。

　　7．mine　考查名词性物主代词。根据语境可以判断出，此处表示“我的家”，故要用名词性物主代词mine。

　　2．for　考查介词。for a long time“很久”。

　　3．am supposed　考查固定用法。be supposed to do sth.“应该做某事”，为固定用法。

　　4．case　考查介词短语。in that case“在那种情况下”。

　　5．which　考查非限制性定语从句。先行词是his work且在定语从句中做主语，故引导词用which。

　　7．change　考查语境。根据句中的“something different”可知，此处表示要换个休闲的方式。

　　8．but　考查连词。根据句中的“we don’t have any beer or anything to eat at home”可知，前后为转折关系。故用but。

　　Passage 19

　　(2017·哈尔滨三中一模)

　　David and Jack are talking about cyber relationships in their dorm.

　　David：Jack, you spend a lot of time on the Internet every day.What do you frequently use it for?

　　Jack：I usually surf__1__net, read news and anything I am interested in, check emails or chat with other people. Sometimes I order online too.

　　Maybe

　　I

　　can find

　　a girlfriend online like a fairy tale.

　　David：Well, I see. That's__2__you are so stuck to it.

　　Jack：I know dozens of websites provide dating service.Curiosity and the need for companionship make them a sure­fire business.I recommend that you__3__(try)Baihe.com.

　　David：To be__4__， I really can't understand how__5__people depend on that way to make friends. It's kind of risky.

　　Jack：Yes, but it's also one of the easiest and fastest ways to meet new people.

　　David：Sounds good. But it is full of traps on the Internet, and some people have really__6__(please) experience about online dating.

　　Jack：It's true，__7__some people did find their better­half through online dating.

　　David：__8__， I won't try that way to make my girlfriend.

　　Jack：Don't be so sure. If you__9__(happen) to meet a girl online who is intelligent, kind, honest, and you get a good feeling of her, won't you have the desire to get to know her__10__person?

　　David：I won't have such a chance in the first place, for I never enter the chat room.

　　Jack：Maybe one man's meat is another's poison.

　　David：That's right.

　　答案与解析

　　本对话是关于两个人在谈论网上交友的好处和弊端。

　　1．the　考查冠词。surf the net为固定短语，意为“上网”。

　　2．why　考查名词性从句。此处是在说明Jack沉迷网络的原因，故用why引导表语从句。

　　3．(should)try　考查虚拟语气。在动词recommend之后的宾语从句中，需要用虚拟语气，即谓语用abould do的形式，should可以省略。

　　4．frank/honest　考查固定短语。根据语境可知，此处表示“坦白地说”，故填frank或honest。

　　5．come　考查固定用法。这里表示我真的不明白人们怎么会靠那种方法来交朋友。How come...？意为“……怎么会呢？(表示凉讶)”，符合语境。

　　6．unpleasant　考查形容词。修饰名词需要用please的形容词形式，又根据上文的But可知，此处表示的是不好的经历。故填unpleasant。

　　7．but　考查连词。空后的内容和上句表述的相反，空处表转折，所以填but。

　　8．Anyway　考查副词。根据该空后的“I won't try that way to make my girlfriend”可知，David想说无论如何他也不会尝试在网上交女朋友。

　　9．happen　考查时态。if引导的条件状语中应使用一般现在时表将来。

　　10．in　考查介词。in person意为“亲自”，符合语境。

　　(help)me out.

　　答案与解析

　　这是一篇对话。两个朋友见面，其中一个人告诉对方如何给不同的人购买圣诞礼物。

　　1．who　考查定语从句。本空需要关系代词引导定语从句修饰先行词those，关系代词在从句中做主语，指人，因此这里用who引导定语从句。

　　2．a　考查冠词。语境表示这是一件令人头疼的事，因此在单数可数名词headache 前加a。

　　3．dividing　考查非谓语动词。所给提示词在句中做consider 后的宾语，consider 后只能接动名词做宾语。

　　4．but　考查并列连词。语境表示“不是很了解但是平时经常见面”，是转折关系，故用转折连词but。

　　5．what　考查疑问词。这个问句用what 表疑问，疑问词在句中做do的宾语，表示“那么我该做什么呢？”

　　6．them　考查代词。这里用them 指前面提到的复数名词“the friends”。

　　7．on　考查固定短语。这里用on a diet 表示“节食”。

　　8．healthy　考查形容词。这里用所给提示词的形容词形式做keep 的表语，表示“健康的”。

　　from the sun.

　　Robert：And no one wanted to participate in any of the games. All we wanted was cold drinks.

　　__8__ (stop) it for the weather forecast. Maybe it will only be a short shower, which cools things off a little. That __9__

　　not be bad.

　　Betty：Wish __10__ were true.

　　答案与解析

　　本文为一篇关于讨论天气情况的对话。Betty要去野餐，需要晴朗的天气，但却要下雨了。她和Robert回忆起去年的炎热天气。

　　1．what　考查表语从句。分析句子成分可知，系动词后接的是表语从句，而且从句中缺少宾语，所以填what。

　　2．without　考查介词。句意：没有好天气我们就不能野餐。

　　4．escape/shelter　考查动词。句意：天气如此热以至于我们所做的就是寻找阴凉的地方和逃离太阳的办法。escape/shelter from是固定短语，表示“逃离，躲避”。

　　5．had been　考查虚拟语气。根据上文炎热的天气可知，此处为对过去的虚拟，所以用过去完成时态，表示“要是有一些风让我们感到凉爽就好了”。

　　6．burned/burnt　句意：但是没有风，只有火辣辣的太阳，我们几乎就要被烤伤了。

　　7．Obviously　考查副词。副词在句首做状语。句意：显然，我们今年没有这样的问题。

　　8．to stop　考查非谓语动词。forget to do sth.“忘记去做某事”。句意：我正在看足球比赛，忘记停下来去看天气预报了。

　　9．may/might　考查情态动词。此处may/might表示推测，具有可能性。句意：也许只是阵雨，那会使我们凉爽一些，那也许并不糟糕。
