【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述一个爱尔兰人因为家里有三兄弟,所以每次在酒吧的时候,都是点三品脱啤酒,然后通过轮流从每品脱喝一口这样的方式喝完它们,然后再点三品脱再来第二轮。有一次他只点了两品脱,酒吧里的人以为他的兄弟去世了,酒保对此表示遗憾并安慰他,结果发现是因为他戒酒了。

1句意:他通常点三品脱的啤酒,然后坐在房间的后面,轮流从每一品脱里喝一小口。

动词“ordered”前面缺副词修饰,此处用usual的副词usually表示通常。故答案为usually

2句意:当他喝完三品脱,他回到柜台然后再点三品脱。

he finished all three”这是一个状语从句,此处用when表示时间状语当他喝完的时候,句首首字母w需要大写。故答案为When

3句意:一天,酒保问他:你为什么点三品脱,不点一品脱呢?

根据后面一句“why not a pint”可知前面在询问为什么点三品脱,特殊疑问句的疑问词用why。句首首字母w大写。故答案为Why

4句意:酒保说这是一个好的习惯,应该保留。

名词custom前面缺形容词修饰,根据“left it there”可知酒保觉得做法很好应该保留,用nice做定语修饰。故答案为nice

5句意:这个爱尔兰人每天去酒吧,总是按照相同的方式来喝酒。

此处缺少谓语动词;文章讲述的故事是一般过去时态;此处用动词go的过去式went表示“去酒吧”。故答案为went

6句意:他点三品脱,然后通过轮流从每品脱喝一口这样的方式喝完它们。

此处表示“drank the three pints”喝完三品脱的方式;动名词taking前面用介词by表示做事情的方式。故答案为by

7句意:他点三品脱,然后通过轮流从每品脱喝一口这样的方式喝完它们。

each of后面缺少宾语,用代词的宾格;此处指的是三品脱啤酒的每一品脱,用代词they的宾格them。故答案为them

8句意:酒吧里其他人都注意到这一点,大家都安静下来。

此处用动词短语fall into silence表示大家看到他点了两品脱,以为他的兄弟去世了,所以安静下来。故答案为silence

9句意:当他回到吧台去点第二轮的时候,酒保说:我对此深表遗憾,但是我想表达对你家人的慰问。

round是单数名词,根据“the”可知此处用序数词表示顺序。根据第一段“he came back to the bar and asked for three more”可知他的习惯是喝完第一轮会再去吧台点酒;此处用two的序数词形式second表示第二轮。故答案为second

10句意:这个爱尔兰人疑惑了一会,然后大笑,说:不是,每个人都很好,我只是戒酒了。

动词短语gave up后面用名词或动名词;此处用drink的动名词形式drinking,表示他只是戒酒了,不是因为有人去世了才少点一品脱酒。故答案为drinking

【题目】 It is reported that Stephen Hawking, the most famous physicist of his time, has died at the age of 76. A family member said Hawking, who was British, died peacefully on early Wednesday, March 14, 2018 at his home in Cambridge, England. Hawking was known worldwide for working to explain something about the universe and black holes.

Hawking suffered from a disease called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS(肌肉萎缩性侧面硬化病) in 1963. At the time, doctors thought he would only live about two years. But he lived more than 50 years and continued his scientific work. Because of it, Hawking had to stay in a wheelchair and lost his ability to speak. Hawking had to communicate with others by using a voice synthesizer(合成器).

In his 2013 book My Brief History, Hawking told his readers about his illness. “I felt it was very unfair—why should this happen to me?” He added, “At the time, I thought my life was over.” “But now, 50 years later, I can be quite satisfied with my life,” he wrote. His goal was that he could understand the universe completely. He was also a big supporter of human space travel to the Moon and Mars. “We are running out of space and the only places to go to are other worlds. It is time to explore other solar systems(太阳系),” he said last year.

Hawking was an outstanding scientist and a fighter who struggled against the disease and contributed greatly to mankind’s understanding of science. He and his contribution will be remembered forever.

3According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A.Hawking is a famous physicist from Harvard, the USA.

B.Hawking wrote a book called My Brief History in 2003.

C.Hawking didn’t think that people should explore other solar systems.

D.Hawking spent his life studying the universe and black holes.

【题目】 Millions of Chinese have been playing a mobile game called “ Travel Frog ” recently. You play as the “ mother ” of a frog who lives alone and enjoys traveling. 1 The frog will send you postcards while he is away.

The game’s popularity may have something to do with how lonely people are these days, according to the Xinhua News Agency. Many players have said that the lonely frog is just like them. 2

Loneliness seems to be a common problem today. 3 And in the UK, about one in five people in the country are “ always or often lonely ”, the Telegraph reported. This might be why the UK government announced the country’s first “ Minister(部长)of Loneliness ” in January. 4 The minister’s office will provide more money for activities that connect people together.

This loneliness problem may be partly because of social media. When we see pictures of friends having fun or posting selfies with us, we may compare their “ perfect ” lives with our own and feel even lonelier.

But we should remember that no one is sure to be lonely. As UK poet John Donne once wrote, “ 5 And every man is a piece of continent(陆地), a part of the main. ”

根据材料内容,从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项,使短文意思通顺、内容完整。

A.The minister’s job is to find ways to help UK citizens feel less lonely.

B.You need to prepare food and tools for his trips.

C.No man is an island, entire on itself.

D.According to the Guardian, about 40 percent of American adults say they’re lonely.

E.But playing with the frog helps them forget their loneliness for a short time.
