1．He ________ to save the dying man，but failed.

2．When I visited her，she was ________ in writing a lecture speech on Chinese History.
A．absorbing B．concentrated
C．devoted D．occupied
答案D[动词辨析。be occupied in doing sth“集中精力”。其他三个词的用法为be absorbed in/ concentrate on/ devote...to，故在此处的结构不正确。]
3．The policeman stopped him when he was driving home and ________ him of speeding.
A．charged B．accused
C．blamed D．warned

4．We hired a boat ________ we could go fishing on the weekend.
A．in order to B．so as to

C．over D．for

答案B[句意：众所周知，报纸、杂志、广播、电视能够让我们了解国内外正在发生的事情。keep https://www.doczj.com/doc/216574304.html,rmed about/ of sth为固定结构，意为“使某人了解某事”。] 7．The news that we all were looking forward to ________at last three days later than we expected.
A．come B．came
C．coming D．be coming
答案B[注意分析该句话的结构，the news 为主语，that we all were looking forward to 为定语从句，所以此处缺少谓语动词。]

—Yes，not only________ his money，but he was nearly killed.
A．he lost B．did he lose
C．he had lost D．was he lost

13．The manager demanded that the work________ within three days.
A．was finished B．had been finished
C．be finished D．finished
答案C[句意：经理要求这项工作要在三天内完成。demand“要求”后面的宾语从句谓语动词使用should do形式，而should 可以省略。此处，“工作”和“完成”之间为被动关系，故使用被动语态。]

Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
Beldon and Canfield are two seashore towns, not far apart. Both towns have many hotels, and in summer the hotels are full of holiday-makers and other tourists.
Last August there was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel in Beldon. The next day, this news appeared on page two of the town's newspaper—The Beldon Post：
FIRE AT SEABREEZE
Late last night firemen hurried to the Seabreeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom. The hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire. We say again to all our visitors: “Please don't smoke cigarettes in bed.”This was B eldon's first hotel fire for five years.
The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one：
ANOTHER BELDON HOTEL CATCHES FIRE
Last night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the Seabreeze Hotel. An angry holiday-maker said，“An electric lamp probably started
the fire. The bedroom lamps are very old at some of these hotels. When I put my bedside light on, I heard a funny noise from the lamp.”We are glad to tell our readers that this sort of adventur e does not happen in Canfield.
What are the facts, then? It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident. There was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel last August; that is one fact. Do we know anything else? Yes, we know that firemen went to the hotel.
Now what do you think of the rest of the“news”？
【解题导语】本文通过讲述两个对手城市的报纸对同一次火灾事故的不同报道，对新闻报道的真实性提出了质疑。
1．Which of the following best gives the main idea of this text?
A．Beldon and Canfield are both good places for tourists in summer.
B．A fire broke out at night in Seabreeze Hotel last summer.
C．It was not easy to find out exact truth from newspapers.
D．Two newspapers gave reports on the same matter.
答案C[主旨大意题。从主题句“It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident.”可得出答案。]
2．Which of the following are probably facts?
a．The fire broke out in a bedroom at the hotel.
b．A cigarette started the fire.
c．An old lamp started the fire.
d．The fire broke out at night.
e．There has never been a fire in Canfield.
A．b and c B．a and d
C．c and e D．a and c
答案B[细节理解题。根据“There was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel last August”及两家报纸都报道了火灾是在晚上发生的，故可以确定的事实只有两项：a和d。而其他选项都只是两份报纸的片面之词，到底是真是假，我们无法得知，因此答案为B。]
3．The Canfield Times used the headline like this in order to make its readers think________.
A．hotels in Beldon often catch fire
B．hotels in Beldon don't often catch fire
C．this was the second fire at the Seabreeze Hotel
D．Beldon was a good place except that hotels there are not quite safe
答案A[推理判断题。ANOTHER BELDON HOTEL CA-TCHES FIRE中ANOTHER 是个关键词，它暗示Beldon的宾馆频繁发生火灾。]
4．The Canfield newspaper gave a report just the opposite to The Beldon Post by saying that________.
A．the bedroom lamps were very old at the Seabreeze Hotel
B．the bedroom lights made funny noise when the fire took place
C．the firemen failed to save clothing, bedclothes and other things
D．such accidents never happened in Canfield for the past 5 years
答案C[细节理解题。The Canfield Times报道说“Last night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the Seabreeze Hotel.”，而The Beldon Post则说消防队员及时把这场小火扑灭了(没有造成损失)。两则报道相反。]
B
School Report went international when the BBC News project's first global radio bulletin was made at Randfontein High School near Johannesburg in South Africa.
Students from the school were joined by pupils from two other schools—Parktown High School for Girls and Impala Crescent Primary School—and went live at 14：00 local time on 3 February 2009. BBC Producers Ros Smith and Kate Riley were invited by the Commonwealth of Learning to work with the schools.
After deciding on their news items, the students gathered vox_pops from fellow students and their teachers.
Tiffany said，“We had a chance to talk to other kids from other schools. This was great
because Randfontein is situated in the sticks, away from civ ilisation.” Nomakhosi added, “Interviewing our teachers and classmates was interesting and I felt important while doing this.”
Chene commented, “My voice sounded like a whole new person. It takes some time getting used to hearing your own voice.”
Pupils, known as learners in South Africa, then worked with School Report producer Ros Smith to edit their clips while others started script-writing(写广播稿)．
With the 1 400 deadline fast approaching, and the audio edited, the new School Reporters recorded their scripts so they could be added to the bulletin.
Ros Smith was really impressed with the students' work. She said, “The stories they chose were an excellent mix. The final bulletin sounds really good, and they finished with 10 minutes to spare before the deadlin e.”
On 26 March students from the three schools will take part in the School Report News Day with support from the Open Learning Systems Education Trust, and it was a big success.
【解题导语】南非的中学生们自己动手收集新闻线索，采访、编写、修改、录制新闻节目。他们制作的新闻节目令BBC的专家们也刮目相看！

A. its News Centre

D. Parktown High School for Girls
答案B[细节理解题。根据第一段可知，BBC School Report这一栏目的第一份全球新闻简报是在南非的Randfontein High School制作的。]
6．The underlined words “vox pops” in Paragraph 3 probably mean________.
A. news about pop stars
B. skills of writing news
C. voices from the public
D. suggestions on how to start an interview
答案C[词义猜测题。根据下文学生Nomakhosi的话Interviewing our teachers and classmates可以推知，此处是说学生们采访身边的人，来获取“公众的声音”。故C项解释符合该词组的意思。]
7．Which of the following is TRUE about Randfontein?
A. It is a big city in South Africa.
B. It is a small and underdeveloped place.
C. It established the School Report News Day.
D. It invited Ros Smith and Kate Riley to a celebration.
答案B[推理判断题。根据第四段Tiffany的话可知，Randfontein是一个相对比较落后的地方。]
8．The students do the following jobs by themselves EXCEPT__ ______.
A. collecting the material for news
B. interviewing the people
C. editing the material
D. setting up the deadline
答案D[细节理解题。文中提到学生自己动手收集新闻线索，采访、编写、修改和录制新闻，但是未提及确定截止日期，因此答案选D项。]
9．What's the purpose of writing this passage?
A. To give advice on making radio bulletins.
B. To introduce BBC School Report's first global radio bulletin.
C. To show students' interest in making news in South Africa.
D. To call on people to pay more attention to South African schools.

While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.

While high school does not generally encourage students to explore new aspects of life, college sets the stage for that exploration. I myself went through this 41 process and found something that has changed my 42 at college for the better: I discovered ASL-American Sign Language(美式手语).

2021高考英语七选五+完形填空+语法填空每日一练46 一、七选五 Even if you don’t know the more complex aspects of index funds, everyone generally knows what it means to be good with money. Spend less than your earn, save for the future, stay out of debt. 36 In fact, when we are talking about money management, we are actually talking about our psychological relationship with money. Fundamentally, our financial problems come from unmet needs. In the case of compulsive overspending, the problem is almost never that a person lacks self-control. 37 If you overspend on clothing, you don’t actually believe you need 1,000 items in your closet. More likely, you are uncomfortable with your body or status. Clothing helped you feel good about yourself in the past. 38 If overspending on restaurants, you are not so lazy that you can’t be bothered to cook a single meal. Rather, you are exhausted from doing things you don’t want to do. You need to give yourself energy in the form of a food high, one that will temporarily mask your unhappiness. The path to true financial health is not to reduce your life to a tight budget, 39 Instead of letting yourself be controlled by uncomfortable impulses, financial health is all about creating a budget that allows you to do what you truly desire in life. If your problem is low self-worth, invest strategically in things that will make you feel worthy. Maybe it’s a few amazing pieces of clothing that are tailored well and last long. Maybe it’s a few sessions of therapy. If your problem is burnout, invest in rest and relaxation. 40 When something shifts within you, something shifts around you. Not the other way around. A.Now, you think you are always one dress away from feeling at peace in your own skin. B.Consider reducing your working hours, or setting aside money for a personal trip. C.However, it’s easier to say than to do. D.but to turn to financial consultants for advice on how to manage your bank account. E.Rather, he usually has an unmet basic need which he is addressing through overspending. F.Money principles are simple; it’s human psychology that’s complex. G.but to take an honest look at your needs and meet them with long-term solutions.
高考完形填空专项训练步步高 抓好三方面●跨好三大步●做好三结合 ------谈完形填空解题技巧中学生在做完形填空题时存在的问题，概括起来有以下三方面： 1.不善于抓文章的主旨大意，并以此为中心展开对整篇文章的推理、判断，导致理解上出现偏差，甚至和文章的中心相悻。 2.容易受定势思维的影响，对文意分析不透，忽视特定语境中知识的运用。 3.对完形填空题怀有厌倦、畏惧心理，以至做题时处于应付状态，做题能力得不到提高。 那么，怎样才能提高做完形填空题的能力呢？我们应从以下三方面入手训练思维能力和解题技巧：抓准主旨、透析文意、理清逻辑。并在做题过程中把这三方面与做完形填空的三大步骤“通读、精读、复读”有机结合，明确每步的思维主攻方向。即抓好三方面，跨好三大步，做好三结合。 一、通读短文抓主旨 一般情况下，完形填空短文都不给标题，不容易把握文章的主题和大意。但短文首句通常不设空格，这就为我们窥视文章全貌提供了一个窗口，而尾句往往是文章的总结、结论或点睛之笔，所以抓住开篇启示作用的首句和总结概括性的尾句是必要的。借助于首尾句给予的启示，克服不良心理的影响，满怀信心，全神贯注，目光越过空格，注意能体现文章大意的关键词句，尽力从整体上理解短文大意，这是逐空填词的重要依据和基础。如果一开始就忙于见空填空，势必无法从整体上把握全文概要，无法形成连贯的思路，只见树木不见森林，理解偏离文章的中心，造成顾，此失彼的错误，甚至影响做题速度。 抓住了文章的主旨大意后，我们围绕主旨大意去阅读、预测、推理、判断，往往会收到事半功倍的效果。尤其是一些干扰性强，容易使人犯想当然错误的选项就会迎刃而解。 二、精读短文析文意 在基本抓住文章的主旨后，应逐句精读短文，逐题分析选项，对特定的语境做深人的理解，克服“定势思维”，根据全文大意和词不离句，句不离文的原则，逐项填空。切不可以单纯的词汇辨析或语法角度去做题，而应以能否恰如其分地表达文意作为选择最佳答案的唯一标准。要吃透文意，理解到位，我们应做到以下几点： 1.从上下文的角度考虑，注意其内在联系。就题论题，断章取义，忽视上下文的信息提示是我们常犯的错误。因此我们在做题时要注重暗含的信息提示，找准突破口，确保文意畅通。 2.从词汇意义及用法、惯用法和搭配的角度去考虑，准确判断。NMET完形填空题中考查词汇意义及用法、惯用法和搭配的题目逐年增多，必须结合上下文把握文意，研读

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。 I have been in the teaching profession for more than thirty years, and one of the best teachers I have ever known is Mr__Rowe. I was lucky enough to teach fourth grade together with him. Mr. Rowe had endless patience and understanding and I learned so much from watching him. He could perform miracles, like the one he performed with Steven, one of the unhappiest kids I had ever seen. Steven couldn’t stand school. He didn’t like being picked last for kickball. He didn’t like the kids who raised their hands and knew all the answers, and most importantly, he didn’t like himself. The first day he walked into Mr. Rowe’s classroom, he ignored the other students, looking angry and annoyed, and slid into his chair, knocking a couple of textbooks onto the floor. Mr. Rowe walked over to him and touched Steven’s shoulder, but Steven pulled away. Nevertheless, Mr. Rowe welcomed him: "Hi, Steven. I’m happy you are in my class. We are gonna have a great year." Steven looked around the room as if Mr. Rowe must be mistaken. No teacher in his right mind would want Steven to be part of his classroom. So, while Mr. Rowe seemed cheerful and relaxed that day of school, it seemed like Steven was angry and confused. That day after classes, Mr. Rowe chose Steven to pitch(投球) the kickball at recess. "Hey, Steven," Mr. Rowe commented, "You are good at pitching. Let me show you my secret trick." Mr. Rowe taught Steven one of the tricks that not a single kid could perform. Steven learned fast and did quite well! Everyone cheered for him! After the kickball, Steven sat as close to Mr. Rowe in classes as he could. When a question was asked, Steven lit up; when he knew the answer, he raised his hand; when he answered the question, his voice shook. However, he got the answer right! He said, with Mr. Rowe, his days of the fourth grade promised wonderful. That is not to say that every day went smoothly, but it was obvious that Steven grew to love Mr. Rowe more and more with each passing day. 注意: 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语； 3.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好； 4.续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。 Paragraph 1: Time passed quickly that year, and before we all knew it, it was the last day of school. ___________________________________________________________________________ _____ Paragraph 2: Many years later, Mr. Rowe and I were surprised when a handsome young man walked into our classroom, dressed in the army uniform. ___________________________________________________________________________ _____ 【答案解析】
