必考点03 动词不定式1．I'm very tired. Please give me a chair________.A．to sit B．for sit in C．sitting D．to sit on【答案】D【解析】考查非谓语动词。
句意：我很累了。
请给我一把椅子坐。
动词不定式作宾语补足语，表示宾语所做的动作。
me是宾语，to sit on是宾语补足语。
sit是不及物动词，因此需要添加介词on。
故选D项。
2．Have you seen Blackpink________ DDU-DU DDU-DU？That’s such a beautiful scene that I dare not have my eyes________ on it.A．dancing；fixing B．dance；fixingC．dance；fixed D．to dance；fixed【答案】C【解析】考查非谓语动词。
句意：你看过黑粉跳舞吗——DDU-DU DDU-DU？那是如此美丽的景色，我不敢一直盯着它看。
分析句子可知，空1处为see sb. do sth.结构，不带to不定式dance作宾语补足语，表示一个完整的动作过程，（see sb. doing sth.中，现在分词表示一个未完成的动作）；空2处为have sth done结构，动词fix和所修饰的名词my eyes之间是被动关系，故用其过去分词fixed作宾语补足语。
故选C项。

When my mom was busy in the kitchen, she let me stay on the balcony watching the kids playing in the street. On that balcony I played sometimes with my elder sister,Maria. She was seven years old and when my mon was absent she was like a mother to me. The balcony was a great hobby place for my father. After his work he used to grow carnations(康乃馨)in the flower boxes. His carnations were red, pink and white, and everyone appreciated them for their beauty.He took care of them with so much love and devotion. He dealt carefully with his flowers like a mother taking care of her baby. Many times I sat on the floor of the balcony for hours observing him and his lovely flowers with patience. He was always doing something on that balcony. He was watering them every day, cleaning the balcony floor, changing the potting soil and when the stems(茎)were thick, strong and high enough, he started his improvement operation like a doctor.My dad took a tiny knife and with his left hand he held the stem of the carnation and measured the height. Then he made a small mark on the stem with his finger. Afterwards he made a sharp cut with the knife, just enough to fit in a grain of barley(插穗的芽). Then he bandaged the stem with a small bandage. His job was then to water the plants and to take care of them. “No one should touch them” , he said to mom. Every day, when he came home from work he went straight to the balcony.Mom used to tell us: “Do not touch daddy’s flowers. ” For us it was a fascinating experience to watch how the small stems were growing and making flowers. When the carnations had grown big enough, my dad enjoyed watching them every day. We the kids did too.续写要求：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。

AYour school asked parents about the social development in chil dren in the last Parents’ Meeting. Here are some opinions. Read following information and answer the questions.1．The underlined word, “enhance”, can be replaced by ________.A．spend B．improve C．expect D．handle2．What kind of activities may be supported by the third parent for his/her children?A．Playing basketball with friends.B．Playing computer games.C．Holding parties at home.D．Watching TV alone.3．Which is NOT the advantage from social development according to these parents and headmaster’s opinions?A．Children become more confident.B．Children get skills needed to make new friends.C．Children learn teamwork.D．Children are afraid of making mistakes.BHaving experienced a shocking electrical accident, which caused him to become both blind and deaf, James Franco’s world became completely dark and quiet for almost ten years. The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life. His family, especially his wife, did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live.One hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once. He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet, but he was struck by the lightning. Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up 20 minutes later, lying face down in muddy water. He was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes, he could hardly believe what he saw: a tree and muddy road. When Mrs. Franco came running up to him, shouting to their neighbors to call for help, he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.The news of James regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread and many doctors came to examine him. Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning. However, none of them could give a compellent answer as to why this should happen. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since James lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was another sudden shock.4．The reason why James attempted to kill himself was that ________.A．a terrible electrical accident happened to himB．nobody in the whole world cared about himC．he was struck by the lightning once moreD．he had to live in a dark and silent world5．What was James doing when he was struck by the lightning?A．Sheltering from the rain under a tree. B．Putting an end to his life.C．Taking a walk with a stick. D．Lying on the ground.6．What does the underlined word “compellent” in Paragraph 3 mean?A．Gradual. B．Wrong. C．Convincing. D．True.7．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．A Terrible Electrical Accident B．What a Sudden ShockC．An Unforgettable Adventure D．James Franco and His wifeCThis could be the perfect gift for the partner,who embarrasses you on the dance floor.Smart socks,which can teach to dance,may be the answer for anyone with two left feet.The socks have been developed as a running tool to help runners improve their skills.Thanks to the socks,users can accurately record not only how far and fast they run but also how well.It means the user maximizes their performance,and reduces damage to body and prevents hurt.The hi-tech socks are made of special fibers that watch the movements of your feet.They look,feel and can be washed like normal clothes.Sensors（传感器）record each movement and send it by an ankle transmitter（脚踝发射器）to a smart phone. Then a “virtual coach” application shows the information and can tell the user what they are doing wrong,and help to improve skill in any task with feet.The socks should be useful to athletes and weekend joggers."People think running is so easy and of course everybody can do it but not necessarily safely and well,"Dr Davide Vigano said.A recent study showed that between 60 and 80 percent of runners got hurt per year.This is pretty much more than any other human activity.Researchers say the technology can also be developed to teach people how to dance,play sports such as golf,or even to help to teach women to walk better in high heels.Mr.Vigano said,“People could all benefit from the idea.We have had interest from all sorts of sports,like skiing, football,cycling and golf.Anything where you have to use your feet can use it.Itcould even be put in high heels to help women walk in them safely.”Socks are just the start,and the technology could be used in gloves,hats and boots.The socks,anklet and software package,are expected to be sold for around￡120,which will go on sale in March.8．What does the underlined part "anyone with two left feet" refer to?A．People who are disabled.B．People who are interested in dancing.C．People who are not good at dancing.D．People who invented the socks.9．What's special about fibers that the socks are made of?A．They feel much softer than normal clothes.B．They can monitor the movement of feet.C．They are expensive to produce.D．They act as a smart phone for users.10．Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the socks?A．They can improve the skill of running.B．They can help women walk better in high heels.C．They can teach people to dance well.D．They can be worn for days without washing.11．According to Dr.Vigano,.A．everyone can make good use of the smart socksB．users can run as fast as they like with the socksC．60 to 80 percent of runners would like to buy the smart socksD．no runners will get hurt,thanks to the socksDIt warmed my heart today to walk into the Thirsty Camel downtown in the Thanksgiving Day, for a quick lunch before a haircut and library trip. Ihan, a food shop owner, said that he was refusing to take money today because it was Buy Nothing Day. To increase awareness(意识) of the strange over spending nature of our society, Ilan suggested a trade for food today. He simply asked that you offersomething of equal personal value for the meal you received.At first I was really uncomfortable, wondering if it would be fair to exchange a yet to be determined “I Owe You” (IOU) for food? What could I give him of equal value? After all, his food is the best in the town!We ended up writing our IOU's with promises of a book, some paintings and the offer of work in a variety of ways if he needs it.I think the idea isn't that the trade is "equal" so much as the importance of the kind of<u>transaction</u>. We put thought into our offer and we had an even greater understanding for the meals we ate.We don't buy a lot, especially at this upcoming time of year. We don't give gifts at all in fact. The holiday time is spent enjoying each other's company and doing things together with family and friends. This is what seems most sensible.Ilan is a good person. We are all lucky to have someone like this in our community.12．Ilan did not take any money that day in order to_________.A．have a quick lunch before a haircut and library tripB．buy nothing that day to save some moneyC．make people aware of their over spendingD．trade for something of equal value in return13．For the meal, the author finally offered Ilan ________.A．some promises B．a bookC．some paintings D．work in different ways14．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “transaction”? A．transport B．tradeC．meal D．giving15．What is the author’s attitude to Buy Nothi ng Day?A．Disagreeable B．Meaningless.C．Supportive. D．Doubtful.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AStill seeking a destination for your weekend break? There are some places which are probably a mere walk away from your college.King’s Art CentreA day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibitio n of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere. This weekend sees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists.You could attend a class teaching you how to ‘learn from the masters’ or get more creative with paint – free of charge.The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.The Botanic GardenThe Garden has over 8,000 plant species; it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for Cambridge University.The multi-branched Torch Aloe here is impressive. The African plant produces red flowers above blue-green leaves, and is not one to miss.Get to the display house to see Dionaea muscipula, a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals.The Garden is also a place for wildlife-enthusiasts. Look for grass snakes i n the lake. A snake called ‘Hissing Sid’ is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun.Byron’s PoolMany stories surround Lord Byron’s t ime as a student of Cambridge University. Arriving in 1805, he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of “mess and drunkenness”. However, it seems as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough. I’m not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his rooms. He spent a great deal of time walking in the village.It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake, wh ich is now known as Byron’s Pool. A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south Cambridgeshire countryside, the pool is surrounded by the fields. The cries of invisiblebirds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea. If you don’t trust me, then perhaps you’ll take it from Virginia Woolf ,a famous writer,—overa century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool.1.The main idea of the passage is __________.A. interesting stories of Lord. ByronB. an approach to becoming creative in artC. the colorful life in the countrysideD. some places for weekend break2.If you are a wildlife enthusiast, you’d better go to__________.A. Byron’s PoolB. the Botanic GardenC. King’s Art CentreD. Cambridgeshire3.According to the passage, the following statements are wrong except __________.A. There is a small charge for attending the masters’ classB. Byron liked swimming naked in the lakeC. Byron seemed to like keeping pet bearsD. Hissing Sid and Flytrap are impressive animals4.The author’s purpose in mentioning Virginia Woolf is to show__________.A. she was a famous writerB. she was fond of swimmingC. she was Byron’s admirerD. Byron’s Pool is a pleasant plac eBWhen I lived in Spain, some Spanish friends of mine decided to visit England by car. Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation . I suggested that they should stay at ‘bed and breakfast’ houses, because this kind of place gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories “We didn’t stay at bed and breakfast houses,” they said, “because we found most families were away o n holiday.”I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought ‘VACANCIES’ meant ‘holidays’, because the Spanish word for ‘holidays’ is ‘vacaciones’. So they did not go to house where the sign outside said ‘VACANCLES’, which in Englishmeans there are free rooms. Then my friends went to house where the sign said ‘NO VACANCLES’, because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels!We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word ‘DIVERSION’ means fun. In English, it means that workmen are repairing the road, and tha t you mus t take a different road. When my friends saw the word ‘DIVERSION’ on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hold.English people have proble ms too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris, when someone offered me some more coffee, I said “Thank you” in French. I meant that I would like some more. However, to my surprise, the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out that “Thank you” in French means “No, thank you.”5. My Spanish friends wanted advice about ______.A. learning EnglishB. finding places to stay in EnglandC. driving their car on English roadsD. going to England by car6. ‘NO VACANCIES’ in English means ______.A. no free roomsB. free roomsC. not away on holidayD. holidays7. When someone offered me more coffee and I said “Thank you” in French, I ______.A didn’t really want any more coffee B. wanted them to take the coffee pot awayC. really wanted some more coffeeD. wanted to express my politeness8. I was surprised when the coffee pot was taken away because I ______.A. hadn’t finished drinking my coffeeB. was expecting another cup of coffeeC. meant that I didn’t want any moreD. was never misunderstoodCA warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off(打盹)—if it is milked from a cow at night.Res earchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin, which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less an xious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in TheJournal of Medicinal Food.Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax.Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night.9. According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk_______.A. were more anxiousB. woke up laterC. were less activeD. started sleep more easily10. Which of the following is true of melatonin according to the text?A. It’s been tested on mice for ten times.B. It’s used in sleeping drugs.C. It can make people more energetic.D. It exists in milk in great amount.11. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Milk Drinking and HealthB. An Experiment on MiceC. Fat, Sugar and HealthD. Night Milk and SleepDParents have to do much less for their children today than they used to do，and home has become much less of a workshop. Clothes can be bought ready made; washing can go to the laundry; food can be bought, cooked，canned or preserved; bread is baked and delivered by the baker; milk arrives on the doorstep; meats can be had at the restaurant，the worker’s canteen，and the school dining-room.It is unusual now for father to pursue his trade or other employment at home，and his children rarely，if ever，see him at his place of work. Nowadays boys are seldom t rained to follow their father’s occupation，and in many towns they have a fairly wide choice of employmen t and so do girls. The young wage-earner often earns good money，and soon acquires a feeling of economic independence. In textile（纺织物） areas it has long been customary for mothers to go out to work，but this practice has become so widespread that the working mother is now a not unusual factor in a child’s home life，the number of married womenin employment having more than doubled in the last twenty-five years. With mother earning and his older children drawing substantial wages, father is seldom the dominant（占主导的） figure that he still was at the beginning of the century. When mother works, economic advantages increasing，but children lose something of grea t value if mother’s employment prevents her from being home to greet them when they return from school.12. The writer mentions home as workshop in the past because______.A. fathers often pursue employment at homeB. parents had to make food and necessity by themselvesC. many families produce goods at home for saleD. both fathers and mothers in most families are workers13. The chief reason that boys are seldom trained to follow their father’s occupation is that ____.A. children rarely see their fathers at their place of workB. fathers do not like to pursue employment at homeC. there is a wide choice of employment for childrenD. children also like to have jobs and earn money outside14. What makes father no longer the only dominant person in a family?A. Mother’s and children’s earning enable them not just to depend on father for life.B. There are many choices of employment for mothers and children nowadays.C. Father does much less for his children and earn much less today than he used to.D. The number of married women in employment has increased greatly now.15. What is the writer’s attitude towards the change at home ?A. Unacceptable.B. Worried.C. Unconcerned.D. Interested.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
