【题目】阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

Have you ever asked yourself why people often have trouble 1 (learn) English? I hadn’t, until one day my five-year-old son asked me 2 there was ham in a hamburger. There isn’t. This made me realize that there’s no egg in eggplant either. Neither is there pine 3 apple in pineapple. This got me thinking how English can be a crazy language to learn.

For example, we can get seasick at sea, airsick in the air and carsick in a car, but we don’t get homesick when we get back home. And 4 (speak) of home, why aren’t homework and housework 5 same thing?

Even the smallest words can be 6 (confuse). When you see “WHO” in a medical report do you read it as the “who” in “Who’s that?” You also have to wonder at the unique 7 (mad) of a language in which a house can burn up as it burns down.

English 8 (invent) by people, not computers, and it reflects the 9 (create) of the human race. That is why when the stars are out, they are visible, 10 when the lights are out, they are invisible.

【答案】

1learning

2whether/if

3nor

4speaking

5the

6confusing

7madness

8was invented

9creativity

10but

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。主要用几个例子证明了英语中的表达有时候令人费解。

1考查非谓语动词。根据短语have trouble (in) doing sth.表示“做某事有困难”,故填learning

2考查连接词。句意:直到有一天,我五岁的儿子问我汉堡里是否有火腿。本句为宾语从句,从句中不缺少成分,表示“是否”应用whetherif引导。故填whether/if

3考查固定短语。短语neither…nor…表示“既不……也不……”。根据句意:在菠萝里既没有松树也没有苹果。故填nor

4考查非谓语动词。句意:说到家,为什么家庭作业和家务不是一回事呢?speaking of表示“说到,谈及”是固定短语,故填speaking

5考查冠词。the same表示“一样,相同”是固定用法。故填the

6考查形容词。根据上文Even the smallest words can be可知应填-ing结尾形容词confusing,表示“令人困惑的”,解释说明事物words。故填confusing

7考查名词。unique为形容词修饰名词madness,表示“疯狂”。故填madness

8考查动词时态语态。本句中主语与谓语动词构成被动关系,且动作发生在过去应用一般过去时,主语为English,谓语动词用单数形式。故填was invented

9考查名词。根据上文the可知应填名词creativity,表示“创造力”。故填creativity

10考查连词。句意:这就是为什么当星星出来的时候,它们是看得见的,而当灯灭了的时候,它们是看不见的。结合上下文语境可知为转折关系,故用but。故填but

名词性从句关键在于三点:

一、找准从句在主句中充当的成分即分出是名词性从句的主语句、宾语从句、表语从句还是同位语从句;

二、连接词从句中充当的成分(主、宾、定或状语或不做任何成分);

三、弄清楚每个连接词的意义。此外还要注意,近年来高考对于名词性从句的考查多从名词性从句的语序和连接词的用法区别上考查。

如第二小题,句意:直到有一天,我五岁的儿子问我汉堡里是否有火腿。本句为宾语从句,从句中不缺少成分,表示“是否”应用whetherif引导。故填whether/if

【题目】 Sometimes it can be difficult to relate to the generations that have come before us. 1

But older people have plenty of wisdom and knowledge to share with younger generations, and treating them with respect should be second nature for all of us.

Call people sir or ma’am. Even if you have grown up in a more casual environment where you usually call your friends’ parents by their first names, you shouldn’t assume that all older people are comfortable with that kind of informal life. 2 They prefer you call them Mr/Mrs. That’s why it’s always best to ask what name they prefer and use sir or ma’am when you don’t feel comfortable asking.

3 While it’s true that many elderly people have health problems that may require special assistance, aging doesn’t affect all people in the same way. Assuming that an older person has poor eyesight or hearing can be extremely embarrassing and make him or her feel self-conscious. That’s especially true if you make a big deal out of it, such as raising your voice every time you speak to him or her. If you’re unsure whether an older person has such problems, just ask. 4.

Show interest in their lives. It’s easy to think that older people don’t have much going on because they don’t do many of the things that they used to when they are younger.5 When you visit or call your elderly loved ones, make sure to ask about their favorite activities. If they have a hobby that they particularly enjoy, you might even offer to do it with them. That’s a great way to show them just how interested you are in what’s important to them.

A.Do offer them necessary help.

B.Don’t assume they have disabilities.

C.However, many elderly people are still active.

D.Some elderly people may be more traditional.

E.We ourselves will be old some day in the future.

F.It’s better to be straightforward than to risk annoying someone.

G.Growing up differently makes us feel we have nothing in common with them.

【题目】 The science of papermaking addresses the methods, equipment, and materials used to make paper and cardboard, these being used widely for printing, writing, and packaging, among many other purposes and useful products. Today almost all paper is produced using industrial machinery. 1

Beat down the fibre into pulp(纸浆).Adjust the color, chemical, biological, and other properties of the paper. Screen (筛选)the resulting liquid. Press and dry to get the actual paper.

3 It is made of stainless materials and set in a wooden frame similar to that of a window. Then completely bathe it in the liquid and draw it out. Water is removed and the wet mat of fibre is laid on top of a damp cloth. The fairly damp fiber is then dried. Finally, the paper is then cut to the desired shape and packed.

The wooden frame is called a “deckle” (定纸框). 4 The “deckle edges” are one of the indications that the paper was made by hand. Deckle-edged paper is occasionally imitated today to create the impression of old-fashioned luxury.
