5caused

6results

7the

8that/which

9are made

10it

【解析】

这是一篇说明文,主要介绍了茶饮虽有一定益处,但若不当饮用滚烫的热茶,对身体健康有潜在危害的研究结果。

1

考查主谓一致。此处指“并不都是好消息”,主语中news是不可数名词,谓语应为第三人称单数,且此处语境使用一般现在时,故填is

2

考查动名词作主语。句中may之前为主语,因此需把动词原形变为现在分词形式,构成drinking too hot tea的动名词以作主语,故填drinking

3

考查介词。此处表达的是“热饮与此种类型癌症之间的联系”,表达两者之间使用介词between,故填between

4

考查副词。此处修饰动词短语“figure out the temperature”(算出温度),应使用副词accurately(精确地),故填accurately

5

考查过去分词作后置定语。此处意为“喝下热饮所导致的胃部持续损伤”,此处,胃部损伤(damage of stomach)的原因使用后置定语来表达,damage与后置定语中的动词cause构成被动关系,因而有caused by…(由……引起的),故填caused

6

考查名词。根据谓语are可知主语部分的名词应使用复数形式,确保主谓一致,故填results

7

考查冠词。该研究已在前文中具体描述,因而此处“该研究”并非第一次出现,且句中语境为特指“这一研究”(the study),故填the

8

考查定语从句。句意:红茶和绿茶中有能降低癌症风险的抗氧化剂。句子中使用限制性定语从句来修饰抗氧化剂,先行词antioxidants(抗氧化剂)在从句中作主语,因而可使用关系代词that/which来指代它,并引导定语从句,故填that/which

9

考查被动语态。句意:它们被做得太热了(太滚烫了)。此处主语they指代茶饮teas(与前文一致,tea可以为复数),名词teas与动词make构成被动关系,且此处为一般现在时,故填are made

10

考查形式主语。使用代词it指代句中的真正主语to wait until they cool down,从而避免句子结构的“头重脚轻”,构成It is adj. to do的固定句式,故填it

【题目】 Can creativity be taught? That’s a question without a simple yes or no answer. Creativity may not be able to be taught directly, but what you can get better at is frequently targeting at the circumstances of life which bring up the greatest chances for true creative expression. 1, but more like something which manifests (显现) itself inside those who learn to develop it and create the right conditions for it.

Limit your selection of tools to only the most vital. 2. You’ll be sharper than someone who merely fights with a larger set of tools.

Learn how to be resourceful. 3. Creativity is not just about creating something new but making old things work better as well. Think of crazy possibilities as well as practical ones. You might find inspiration for a workable solution in one of your ideas.

Don’t listen to feedback (反馈) and keep following your own path. The problem of asking for feedback is that the feedback will be given according to the person’s past experience. Others will unconsciously push you in a direction that they see as best. 4. Just don’t let criticism even the constructing type destroy your creativity during the creative process.

5. Routines are positive if they strengthen a healthy creative consciousness and negative if they destroy that. The key is to discover a creative routine that puts you in a more creative mindset.

A.Creativity is not like a lightning strike

B.Having a routine is actually not a bad idea

C.You can literally do anything you like with them

D.Resourcefulness is about making the most of what you have to work with

E.The more limited your set of tools is, the more creative the output will be

F.This is done with good intentions, but it actually hurts your natural creativity

G.While breaking your routine once in a while to force new ways of thinking is good

【题目】 As individuals age, many will experience decreased memory abilities.1Some signs include forgetting phone numbers, misplacing car keys, and struggling with name recall. This decline is associated with a routine that leaves parts of the brain unused. Memory exercises can help keep typically unused parts of the brain active and improve memory abilities.

2It can be something as simple as going to a new restaurant for lunch, cooking something completely new, or visiting a friend in the next town for the weekend. New sensory stimulation can help refresh memory.

Another easy way to improve memory is to use one's non-dominant hand to do simple tasks. For example, if one is right-handed, the left hand could be used to brush teeth or comb hair.3But in fact, a part of the brain is being used that is rarely put to work, making the brain stronger.

4This might include studying a new language or researching how to do a math problem. And it does not have to be something traditionally thought of as brain stimulating. Learning a new craft or sport may also activate the brain in new ways.

Not only can mind exercises improve memory, but physical exercise can as well. Studies show that exercise can improve memory abilities as it increases blood circulation and therefore more oxygen can reach the brain.5

A.This may feel slow and ineffective.

B.Short-term memory is often the first to suffer.

C.Talking with others can also improve one's memory.

D.Even as little as 30 minutes of walking each day can help.

E.Memory exercises can also be accomplished by learning new things.

F.One type of memory exercise involves changing one's regular routine.

G.Being alone can cause stress and depressionwhich affects memory negatively.

【题目】 The cub(幼兽)learned quickly. If he met mother hen he would become angry, remembering the pecks on his nose from his first day out of a cave.

Famine came again and for a while, neither mother or cub had anything to eat. Then one day, She-wolf brought home some meat! It was strange stuff, different from anything the cub had smelled or tasted before. And it was for him! Little could he know that his mother had taken the left fork by the stream, by the lair of the lynx(山猫巢穴), and stolen kitten. As he finished his meal, he heard his mother snarling(咆哮)in strange and terrible way. He shivered with fear.

The lynx was mad with anger at the loss of her child and she had tracked She-wolf to her cave.

In the glare of the afternoon light, the lynx crouched at the cave entrance. A coarse scream left no doubt what she meant to do. The cub and his mother were trapped!

The lynx threw herself inside the cave, and She-wolf leaped upon her.

Snarling and howling, the two mothers fought like crazy, the lynx pulling and tearing with her teeth and claws, She-wolf using her teeth alone.

Seeing his mother in such danger, the cub sank his teeth into the wild cat’s leg. Although he didn’t know it, this is probably what saved their lives. The lynx beat at the cub, tearing his shoulder, but he had slowed her down. After a brief, cruel fight, She-wolf put an end to her once and for all.

They had won, but at a price.

The cub licked his mother’s wounds. He knew she was weak and sick. For a week she never left the cave.

Then at last, her strength returned and she was ready to hunt again. This time, the cub went with her. She-wolf noticed a change in her child. He had complete faith in himself from their victory over the lynx. They had fought a wild cat and lived!

The cub now knew another law of the wild-eat or to be eaten: kill or to be killed.

1What can be inferred about the cub from Paragraph 1 and 2?

A.A mother hen once attacked him.

B.He shared the meat with She-wolf.

C.The cub didn’t like the strange meat.

D.He could obtain meat secretly.

2Which of the following can replace the underlined word “crouched” in Paragraph 4?

A.Fought.B.Tracked.C.Hid.D.Trapped.

3What mostly helped She-wolf and the cub win the fight against the lynx?

A.The lynx fighting with her teeth and claws.

B.The cub biting into the leg of the lynx.

C.The three being wounded seriously.

D.She-wolf using her sharp teeth.

4What did the cub get from the victory?

A.Carefulness.B.Strength.C.Friendship.D.Confidence.

【题目】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。

When I was a teenager, I got lost in a foreign country. I was in Berlin, Germany, only month-long trip in Europe. My team and I had one night there to spend however we pleased. Most of my teammates decided to stay indoors and relax. But I did not want to pass up the chance to explore Berlin.

I visited lots of major attractions around the city that night. When the exhaustion began to set in, I checked the time on my watch. I was surprised to see that it was two o’clock in the morning.

As I walked to a subway station, I realized that it was my dad’s birthday. This would be the first birthday I couldn’t celebrate with him because he died a few months earlier. Before I could begin thinking of my dad, I heard train wheels stop.

I rushed onto the train. At first, I was thankful to have made it onto the train. But that joy quickly turned to panic when I noticed that the train was heading in the wrong direction!

I looked around the nearly empty train. I saw a young woman sitting quietly by the window and approached her.

“Hi, do you speak English? I’m lost. Can you help me?” I asked.

The woman understood. She told me how to return to where I had first gotten on the train. But my anxious mind couldn’t follow her guidance.

Without thinking, I asked, “Can you come with me?”

Her face froze at my stupid request. After a long second of hesitation, she agreed to help me. At that moment, I was grateful for the kindness from a stranger.

注意:1. 所续写短文的词数应为100左右;

2. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好,不计入总词数。

Paragraph 1:

On the journey back to the train station I got on, she and I chatted.

Paragraph 2:

Finally, we reached my stop.
