It was darkness everywhere and the landowner shouted at his son 【8】 (angry). But the younger son lighted a candle 【9】 said, “I have filled this room with light!

【答案】
【1】selecting
【2】left
【3】from
【4】older/elder
【5】foolishness
【6】was kept
【7】his
【8】angrily
【9】and
【10】to rule
【解析】
本文是一篇记叙文。一个聪明的地主和他两个儿子的故事。
【1】selecting句意:因此他考虑选择其中一个来管理家族。consider表示考虑,相当于后think about后接名词,代词,动名词,故这里用selecting。
【2】left 考查过去分词。句意:不应该有任何空间留下。空间和留下之间是被动关系,故用过去分词left。
【3】from 考查介词。句意:你们不应该向别人寻求建议。根据句意可知这里用介词from。
【4】older/elder 考查比较级。句意:第二天,地主参观了大儿子的房间。The+比较级,表示两个当中“更---的,较---的”,故答案为older/elder。
【5】foolishness 考查名词。句意:地主叹息大儿子的愚蠢。这里要用名词形式,故答案为foolishness。
【6】was kept 考查被动语态。句意:但是门保持关着。此处it和keep之间是被动关系,结合句意可知此处用一般过去时态的被动语态,故答案为was kept。
【7】his 考查形容词性物主代词。句意:小儿子叫父亲进去,又把门关上。形容词性物主代词修饰名词,故答案为his。
【8】angrily 考查副词。句意:地主生气地对他儿子大叫。这里用副词修饰动词,故答案为angrily。
【9】and 考查并列连词。句意:可是小儿子点起了一支蜡烛,并说:“我让这个房间充满了光!”。根据句意可知前后是递进的并列关系,故答案为and。
【10】to rule 考查动词不定式。句意:他明白,弟弟是管理这个家庭的合适人选。此处是动词不定式做后置定语,故答案为to rule。
consider作动词时主要有以下四种用法:
1.作"思考"、"考虑"(=think about)解,后面可接动名词、由"how,what等+动词不定式"或者从句作宾语.但要特别注意,consider后面不能直接跟动词不定式作宾语.例如:
①We are considering going to Hainan for the Spring Festival.我们在考虑赴海南过春节.
②He has never considered how to solve the problem.他从未考虑过如何解决那个问题.
③Do you consider that we can finish the project ahead of time?你认为我们能提前完成这个项目吗?
2.consider v.还可作"顾虑到"、"顾及"、"体谅"(=take into account)解.这时其后用名词或动名词作宾语.例如:
①All of you should consider the feelings of other people.你们必须顾及到他人的感情.
②Although he has made such a stupid mistake,you should consider his youth.尽管他犯了那样愚蠢的错误,你应该体谅他还年轻.
3.作"认为"、"以为"、"觉得"(=be of the opinion,regard as)解时,后面多接宾语从句,这时一般不接动名词作宾语.例如:
①I consider that he is fit for the position of the manager.我认为他胜任经理的位置.
②We consider that you are not to blame.我们认为这不是你的错.
③He has never considered the fact that his family is not very rich.他从未考虑过他家并不富裕这一事实.
consider作"认为"解时,后面还可以接一个宾语和一个动词不定式作宾语补足语,构成复合宾语结构,但这种结构的动词不定式主要是"to be+名词/形容词";有时也可以是其它不定式,不过这种不定式多用完成时.例如:
①We always consider him to be a weak leader.我们一直认为他是个能力不强的领导.
②They consider Jim (to be) the cleverest boy in their class.他们认为吉姆是他们班最聪明的学生.
③I consider her to have done wonderfully in the final exam.我认为她在期末考试中表现得非常出色.
注:consider作"认为"解时,后面偶尔也出现接不定式作宾语的情况,不过这时大都用形式宾语it,而将真正的宾语后移.例如:
Do you consider it wise to interfere?你觉得干预是明智的吗?
4.固定结构"consider...as/ to be+名词/形容词"多侧重于表示经过思考"认为……是……".例如:
①We consider his suggestion as having possibilities.我们认为他的建议具有可行性.
②They considered the plan as reasonable.他们认为这个计划是合理的。

The Minoans: A Forgotten People
The first advanced culture in ancient Greece was the Minoan culture. For thousands of years, knowledge of these people survived only in Greek myths. In the late 19 h century, archaeologists began to unearth ruins. This inspired Arthur Evans to begin digging on the island of Crete near mainland Greece. On a dig in Kbossos, Evans found an ancient palace Experts think that it was the palace of King Minos, acentral figure in many Greek myths.
【1】With his team, he uncovered a vast structure, varied works of art, and many hieroglyphic records. These finds, together with later finds, comprise all that experts know about Minoan culture.
From the evidence experts gathered, it is clear that the Minoans were ahead of their time. The palace at Knossos was five floors high with hundreds of rooms. Buildings throughout the ancient city had plumbing and flush toilets. Stone pavement lined the surfaces of the roads. In addition, the Minoans possessed a highly developed naval fleet for long-distance trade. 【2】These records confirm the central role of commerce in culture.

An unusual feature of Minoans culture was the pursuit of leisure interests. Sport and visual arts were central to Minoan life. Boxing and bull jumping, a sport in which players jumped over live bulls, were popular. Although bull jumping may have served some ritual purpose, experts believe that it was done mostly for fun. Similarly, although some works of art showed political and religious themes, other works served only as pleasant decor(装饰品).【4】
The Minoans met their demise after a series of natural disasters. Experts believe that group from the Greek mainland capitalized on these events and looked over the island.
A. Some experts think that the wealth gained from trade allowed for such leisure in sports and the arts
B. Experts believe that a king and mostly a female priest ruled the government and controlled trade.
C In ancient Greek myths, Minoan society was quite prosperous and highly civilized
D. The palace that Evans unearthed a century ago was the first proof of Minoan culture.
E. Minoan culture didn't exist before Arthur Evans discovered the palace under the earth

Why India’s ‘Pink City’ is a Photographer’s Heaven
The city of Jaipur is one of India’s wonders. It 【1】 some of the country’s most decorative royal palaces—elegant structures designed hundreds of years ago that still attract visitors today. Largely built in the 1700s, Jaipur is surrounded by a city wall and several 【2】 castles. Considered as a commercial center, it was ahead of its time due to the use of grid iron (网格状)city planning.
A romantic dusty pink type—which has 【3】 the city since 1876, after it was painted pink to welcome Queen Victoria’s husband, Prince Albert—gives Jaipur its 【4】 as the “Pink City”. This 【5】 beauty is what first brought Hong Kong-based photographers Victor Cheng and Samantha Wong to Jaipur.
Walking in glass skyscrapers for century-old royal palaces and historic castles, the pair—who have 130,000 Instagram followers between them—said that the images they 【6】 in Jaipur received a lot of response online. “A lot of our followers hadn’t seen this side of India, so we’re happy we were able to show this side of the country.” Cheng said.
For the photographers, one of the city’s most fascinating features is the light pink coloring of its buildings. “The first gates you see when you enter are pink,” said Wong. “Once you’re through, everything around you varies in different 【7】 of the color—from bright pinks to reddish browns.”
The building is a(n) 【8】 of the City Palace, and its windows allowed royal women to observe street life without appearing in public. One of Cheng’s most striking photos shows a straight front of the building and its hundreds of windows. The building’s lively coloring also pushed Cheng to take a different 【9】 to editing than with images of other cities. “I toned down my usual editing process because the pink was so bright in reality,” he said, “I wanted the photos to 【10】 the actual color I was seeing myself and to maintain its tone.”

【题目】 Amazon is opening its 12th high-tech convenience store Tuesday in New York. The spot will be the first of the chain to allow customers to pay with cash. The move comes with growing resistance against cashless stores, which critics say refuse to serve people who don’t have bank accounts.
At other locations of the store, shoppers enter by scanning the Amazon Go app. That's still the case for customers paying with a credit card, but people paying with cash will have an “entry associate” scan them through the turnstiles (旋转栅门). Once they’re finished, those shoppers will check out with an Amazon Go employee and receive a paper receipt. Cashless customers can still walk out by scanning a phone that has the Amazon Go app at the turnstiles. Customers using the Go app can exit without waiting and get a digitized receipt.
The 1,300-square-foot New York store-the first Amazon Go store on the East Coast-will offer prepared foods, such as sandwiches and salads, It will also have Amazon Meal Kits and locally made options.
Amazon says it will begin accepting cash at its other Go stores “over time.” A number of retailers (零售商) and restaurants, such as Sweetgreen and Dos Toros Taqueria, are facing roadblocks to their cashless recommendations.
New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy recently signed a law banning cashless stores in that state. Philadelphia also passed a law to prohibit cashless stores earlier this month, and officials in New York City, Washington and San Francisco are considering similar moves. The federal government does not require retailers to accept cash.
“While card-only may be convenient for some businesses, it can actually be discriminatory against poor communities that don’t have as much access to banks or lines of credit,” said New Jersey State Senator Nellie Pou, who sponsored the state’s new law. Not accepting cash could also be bad for business. Americans use it in 30% of all business deals, according to a 2017 report from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco.
【1】Why is Amazon opening a new store accepting cash?
A.To persuade those critics.B.To obey the local regulations.
C.To improve its retail service.D.To compete with cashless stores.
【2】What will shoppers paying with cash do at the new store?
A.Exit in line with a digitized receipt.
B.Walk out by scanning a phone with the Go app.
C.Enter through the turnstiles by scanning a phone
D.Check out with an employee and get a paper receipt.
【3】How did some states and cities react to cashless stores?
A.By making laws to stop them.
B.By requiring retailers to run them.
C.By learning from Amazon to improve them.
D.By following the federal government to accept them.
【4】What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A.It s necessary to make cashless stores easily accessible.
B.More banks should be built in poor communities.
C.Card-only payment is convenient for business.
D.Not accepting cash has its disadvantages.
