【题目】阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

English is the international working language so it is 1 (wide) used in the world. English has gone through three periods: Old English, Middle English and Modern English.

In the fifth century, three Germanic groups — the Anglos, the Saxons and the Jutes invaded (入侵) Britain and they spoke similar languages, which developed into 2 we now call Old English.

Unlike Old English, Middle English can 3 (read), although with difficulty, by modern English-speaking people. Many factors contributed to (促成) the 4 (develop) of Middle English. However, in 1066, the Normans (法国诺曼底人) took control of England, 5 did not have the same result that the Germanic invasion had about 600 year 6 (early). But French still had a big influence on English. This led to even more pairs of similar words.

From the 16th century, the British 7 ( begin) to communicate with many peoples from around the world. This meant many new words and phrases entered the language. Modern English, quite different from Old English and Middle English, 8 (contain) many Latin and Greek words. As we all know, people will keep 9 (invent) new words and English will be changing over 10 time.

【答案】

1widely

2what

3be read

4development

5which

6earlier

7began

8contains

9inventing

10the

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。介绍了英语经历的三个历程:古英语、中古英语和现代英语。

1

考查副词。句意:英语是一种国际工作语言所以它在世界被广泛应用。用副词widely修饰动词used,故填widely

2

考查名词性从句。句意:在十五世纪,三个日耳曼民族—盎格鲁人、撒克逊人和朱特人入侵了英国,他们说相同的语言,这后来发展为我们所称为的古英语。名词性从句“______ we now call Old English”中缺少宾语且指物,故填what

3

考查被动语态。句意:不像古英语,现代英语是可以被说现代英语的人读出来的,尽管有难度。动词readMiddle English之间属于被动关系,且置于情态动词之后。故填be read

4

考查名词。句意:许多因素促成了中古英语的发展。the+名词+of为固定搭配,所以用名词development,故填development

5

考查非限制性定语从句。句意:但是在1066年,法国诺曼底人控制了英国,但是并没有带来同样的结果…非限制性定语从句“_____ did not have the same result”中缺少主语且代指前面一整句话,故填which

6

考查副词比较级。句意:但是在1066年,法国诺曼底人控制了英国,但是并没有带来和600年前日耳曼人侵略带来的同样的结果。日耳曼人侵略比法国诺曼底人早600年,所以用比较级,故填earlier

7

考查时态。句意:从16世纪开始,英国人开始和来自全世界的很多人交流。根据状语从句From the 16th century可知,动作发生在过去,且begin为短暂性动词,所以用过去式,故填began

8

考查时态和主谓一致。句意:现代英语和古英语与中古英语相当不同,包含了许多拉丁语和希腊语。主语Modern English是第三人称单数,且陈述客观事实用一般现在时,故填contains

9

考查动名词。句意:我们都知道,人们会一直发明新的词汇,英语将会一直在改变。keep doing sth意为“一直做某事”,为固定搭配,故填inventing

10

考查冠词。句意:我们都知道,人们会一直发明新的词汇,英语在这期间将会一直在改变。over the time意为“在这段时间期间”,the表示特指。故填the

【题目】 It seems we're always being told to get more sleep. Studies suggest spending less time on sleep can lead to obesity(肥胖) and even cancer. You might even find yourself with a head full of false memories. But rarely does science explore the dark side of sleeping too much. That's because few of us in today's busy world have the luck of exploring that option.

In an August 2018 study, published in the Journal of the American Heart Association, researchers researched the sleep patterns of those“fortunate”few and found they may not be so lucky after all. In fact, they found people who get more than eight hours of sleep have greater health risk compared to those who sleep together less than seven hours. What's more, sleep-aholics-those who manage to get 10 hours a night-stand a 30 percent higher chance of dying compared to the seven-hour crowd.

The wide-ranging global study involved(涉及) more than three million people who self-reported on their sleep habits and came to an eye-opening conclusion: If you tend to sleep a lot, you may want to buy an alarm clock. As with all things in life, sleep is best taken in moderation(适度).

You may be thinking: What if I only sleep in on Saturday and Sunday, am I still at risk? The answer is yes, according to a 2019 study published in Current Biology. Researchers discovered that even if a person sleeps more than seven hours on the weekends but still sleeps less than that on weeknights, they are at risk of gaining weight and developing sensitivity to insulin, which controls the level of sugar in blood.

For the study, 36 participants were divided into three groups that each had a different sleep schedule: nine hours every night, five hours every night, and five hours from Monday to Friday and sleeping much on weekends. People who get too much sleep tend to feel tired and lack energy. Also, both sleep-deprived(睡眠不足的) groups consume more food and gain weight.

1Why is the harmful effect of sleeping too much seldom studied?

A.Few people have time to sleep too much.B.Lack of sleep causes much more harm.

C.It turns out to be a healthy sleep pattern.D.People's health has nothing to do with it.

2What does the underlined words "those 'fortunate' few" in paragraph 2 refer to?

A.Those leading a relaxing life.B.Those getting too much sleep.

C.Those with less time to sleep.D.Those with no sleep problems.

3What can be learned from the 2019 study?

A.Sleeping much is particularly beneficial to hungry people.

B.Many people sleep more on weekends than on weekdays.

C.An alarm clock of high quality is important for good sleep.

D.People who sleep much only on weekends also have health risk.

4What is the main idea of the text?

A.It is necessary to save enough time for sleep.

B.Too much sleep can result in gaining weight.

C.Sleeping too much does harm to people's health.

D.People can avoid sleeping much by eating healthily.

We think that life in Chinese high school is 1adventure because we have to survive mountains of homework and exams. Yet would it be surprising if I tell you that high school life in the US is almost as 2 (stress) and demanding as it is in China?

In US high school, everything is recorded and 3(grade), including your grades on quizzes, tests and final examinations.

【题目】请阅读下面这段文字,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。

How much money should I spend each month? This is asked by college students at the start of every term, and it’s become a hot topic of discussion following a controversial online post. The post was about a college student who demanded 4,500 yuan for monthly living expenses from her mom, reported China Daily

In the post, this new college student explained that her school is in a top-tier city and that her expenses included skin-care products and new clothes. Her mother did not agree and “only” gave her 2,000 yuan.

The post started a heated debate. Some people came to her defense. Girls invest a lot in skin-care products and new clothes while boys invest much in shoes, latest electronic devices and equipment for games.

However, someone thinks 4,500 yuan is too much. According to a 2019 report, students in 15 cities spent more than 1,500 yuan a month on average. Beijing topped the list at 2,400 yuan, and Shanghai followed close behind at 2,300 yuan. In some cities, a parent may only earn a monthly salary of 4,000 or 5,000 yuan. Nevertheless, some students insist on buying Dyson vacuum cleaners (吸尘器) for their dormitories instead of common brooms. Others demand Apple laptops to study at Starbucks, instead of going to the library.

【题目】Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.

Dear Myself,

Life is scary. One day you wake up feeling like you can take over the world, and the next day you wake up 1 (feel) like all you want to do is lay in bed and hide from everything.

People walk into your life, grab your hand, and lead you to 2 (beautiful) path you've known, but sometimes the same people let go of your hand without warning, and you become 3 (strand) at a place where you never thought you'd feel lost.

Let's be honest, sometimes everything is going so great and it seems like nothing could go wrong, but right when you begin to think that, something so horrible comes 4 (crash) down and all of a sudden more problems come ricocheting(弹跳)around you and you just feel so hopeless because it's so bad.

5 is so hard to understand why such things happen in life, and I personally wish I had an answer to that "why"? you always ask yourself, but all I can say that is no matter 6 hard life gets, you have to keep going. The life around you will never stop going on.

I'll be honest and say that sometimes I feel a little bit worried and all I can think is "Will I be able to keep up? What if everything goes too fast?" But I realized 7 being scared and living with that burden of running away from problems only slow me down even more.

And I've come to the point 8 I believe that because life never stops, I shouldn't stop either. It's okay to take break and to give yourself time 9 (heal), but you cannot give up and you cannot quit.

Keep positive, fill your heart with gratitude for what you already have, and always 10 (remind) to humble and true to who you are!

With Love,

Your Soul
