Legend has 2 that Chong'er, a prince of Jin, experienced many hardships while he moved around the warring states. Once, when the prince suffered from 3 (starve), Jie Zitui, offered him food. Later, when Chong'er became the duke of Jin, he ordered a search for Jie who had gone into hiding in the remote mountains with his mother. The duke wanted Jie to serve 4 one of his ministers. Contrary to 5many people might assume, Jie, who preferred living a simple life in the Mianshan Mountain to 6 (become) a politician, refused the duke's invitation. Chong'er ordered the mountain to be burned down to force Jie out of hiding. 7 (fortune), Jie did not give in and the fire ended up killing him and his mother. Feeling extremely sorry, Chong'er required that the setting of fire 8 (forbid) on the anniversary of Jie's death. This meant all food was eaten cold. Therefore the festival is thus named.

【答案】

1traditional

2it

3starvation

4as

5what

6becoming

7Unfortunately

8be forbidden

9where

10Although/Though/While

【解析】

本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述的是寒食节,作为中国的传统节日,它的起源,以及节日习俗。

1考查形容词。因为第一空前面有a, 后面有Chinese holiday,可知中间是需要一个形容词去修饰后面的名词holiday的,所以这空需要填形容词。tradition变形容词为traditional。故填traditional

2考查代词。本题Legend作主语,has作谓语动词。那在这空上需要填宾语。此空没有提示词,所以只有介词,冠词,连词和代词。而只有代词可以作宾语,所以这空填写代词。而后面的that引导的从句可知,这里只是需要形式宾语。故填it

3考查名词。from是介词,介词后面加宾语。宾语可以用名词和代词,在这空有提示词。所以填名词。starve改名词为starvation。故填starvation

4考查固定短语。根据句意:公爵想让介子推担任他的大臣之一。serve as担任,该短语是固定短语。故填as

5考查连词。to在这里是介词,介词后面加的是宾语从句,而这个宾语从句缺少连接词。many people might assume 后缺少宾语。宾语从句缺成分。根据句意:与许多人的猜测相反,选择what。故填what

6考查非谓语。to是介词,介词后加宾语。而become a politician作了整个的宾语的结构。所以become换成动名词形式。而这个非谓语的逻辑主语为介子推,和become之间的关系为主动关系。因此,把become改成becoming。本句意为:与许多人的猜测相反,介子推,他宁愿在绵山过着简朴的生活而不愿成为一名政治家,拒绝了公爵的邀请。故填becoming

7考查副词。根据上下文句意:重耳下令烧毁这座山,逼介子推逃出藏身之地。介子推没有屈服,大火最终杀死了他和他的母亲。在这里,介子推和母亲被大火烧死,是不幸的事情,所以fortune改为Unfortunately。故填Unfortunately

8考查虚拟语气。required作动词,后接宾语从句,宾语从句需要用虚拟语气,用should+动词原形。第八题从句:that the setting of fire ____8____ (forbid) on the anniversary of Jie's death.

从句缺少谓语动词。并且句意为在介之推死亡的纪念日,火是被禁止的。火和禁止之间的关系是动宾关系。故填(shouldbe forbidden

9考查定语从句关系副词。 ____9____ the tragedy happened是一个定语从句,修饰先行词Mianshan Mountain,关系词在从句中作地点状语,故选择关系副词中的where。故填where

10考查状语从句连接词。本句话后半部分:“the practices of making typical cold dishes for the event have been preserved. 作的是整个句子的主句。那么,这句话前半部分作的就是状语从句。根据句意:尽管冷的食物并不是人们在庆祝活动中的唯一选择,但是为庆祝活动制作典型的冷的食物的做法得到了保留。可知第十题这空需要填尽管的意思。故填although/though/while

语法填空做题方法

1.大家需要通读全文章,并且对文章了解大意,以及把握特征,弄清文章来龙去脉。其实篇章层面的理解主要包括对文章主旨要义的理解,作者的个人或客观观点、意图、立场,句子与句子之间的关系连接以及时态变换的四个方面,所以,首先可以从这些方面进行入手。

2.大家可以巧用好题目已知条件,这样可以降低填空的难度,铺平填空的道路,由此着手。有括号提示的空格可以视作已知条件,并且充分利用它,所以,先着手填入有括号的词语,以及注意时态、语态和名词的单复数。如果所剩的空格越少,那么文章的大意就会越清晰,语法填空的难度也就相对降低很多,所以可以这样一步一步做下去,不要害怕。

3. 当然,理解文章的句意,并且要分析句子的结构,可以大胆去推测,猜想,逐个击破难点。当了解了文章整体意思之后,必须要看清各个句子的表达意思,尤其是含空格的句子的意思。可以说分析句子结构是答题过程中很关键的一个步骤。大家做题时候,首先要确定句子的“主谓宾”的成分,再看看该句子是否缺不缺谓语动词,然后再考虑谓语动词或者其他成分。此时,要借助上下文的暗示或明示,再确定需要填入词语的词性、形式和功能。

4. 再重读全篇,需要仔细分析核查,语法是否正确,语意是否贯通。做完题之后, 大家请静下心来, 仔细复读全文章,检查自己所填的词语是否已经符合文意。从语意的贯通、逻辑合理的角度去思考,认真复查答案的合理性和正确性,尤其注意动词、连词、介词的搭配以及名词的形式等。

5. 大家拼写的时候记得要书写要规范、正确以及大小写要准确。

【题目】How Plants Branch Out to Access Water

New research has discovered how plant roots sense the availability of water in soil and then adapt (适应)their shape to acquire water. The discovery could enable crops to be raised which are more adaptive to changes in climate conditions, such as the absence of water, and help ensure food safety in the future.

These findings, published in the journal Science, describe a new mechanism(机制) discovered by cooperating teams at the universities of Nottingham and Durham.

Roots are very important for plants to acquire water and nutrients(营养)from the soil. Water is necessary to plant growth , yet changing climatic conditions makes acquiring water from soil even more challenging. Plants are able to adapt to different soil moisture(湿润)conditions by changing their roots.

The researchers discovered that plant roots lacking a branching master gene were no longer able to branch out. They found that when roots have access to moisture, the certain gene remains active and promotes root branching, but when put in air, the gene is in activated, preventing root branching. The research has identified the certain protein which can inactivate root branching.

Professor Sadanandom explained: "This is hugely exciting as it opens up the possibility for us to help develop plants that could continue to branch roots even in challenging conditions such as the absence of water.'

Professor Bennett concluded: "Water is the key to plant growth, development and their survival. By studying how plant roots change their branching in response(回应)to water availability, we have uncovered a new mechanism. This opens the way to develop new crops better adapted to climate change and to help deliver global food safety."

It is absolutely imperative to ensure food safety worldwide. Crop production must double by 2050 to keep pace with global population growth. This target is even more challenging considering the effect of climate change on water availability. In this case, developing crops with better ability to acquire water would provide a solution.

1The findings of the research may have a positive effect on several global issues EXCEPT

A.ensuring food safetyB.preserving the agriculture

C.solving the absence of waterD.increasing crop production

2With the help of the findings, plants may be able to ________.

A.take in more nutrientsB.change inactivated roots

C.grow in challenging conditionsD.branch out without a special gene.

3Which of the following best explains “imperative" in the last paragraph?

A.effective.B.hopeful.

C.impractical.D.urgent.

4What is the new mechanism mentioned by Professor Bennett?

A.How a branching master gene responds to a particular nutrient.

B.How plant roots change their shape according to the soil moisture.

C.Why plants have different abilities to adapt to soil moisture conditions.

D.How the certain protein in activates root branching when accessible to water.
