【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了电子商务巨头阿里巴巴的联合创始人马云的工作经历。
【1】考查动词时态。根据时间状语on 10 September, 2019,可知,谓语动词应用一般过去式。故填retired。
【2】考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,make在句中作非谓语动词,且Jack Ma和make在逻辑上构成主谓关系,应用现在分词表主动,此处作伴随状语。故填making。
【3】考查介词。根据短语born in表示“出生于”。故填in。
【4】考查动词时态及语态。根据上文struggled可知,应用一般过去时,再结合句意,应用被动语态,故用一般过去时的被动语态。主语为Mr. Ma,谓语动词用第三人称单数。故填was rejected。
【5】考查形容词。形容词修饰名词computer作定语。故填personal。
【6】考查名词。with为介词,后跟名词creativity作宾语,表示“创造力”。故填creativity。
【7】考查副词。句意:马云被称为“中国的乔布斯”,几乎拥有电子商务巨头阿里巴巴9%的股份。设空处修饰动词owns,应用副词nearly作状语。故填nearly。
【8】考查冠词。句意:最近,在一次采访中,马云说:“我想回归我热爱的事业——教育。我有很多东西要向比尔·盖茨学习。” interview为可数名词,此处是泛指,应用不定冠词,且interview的发音以元音音素开头的单词。故填an。
【9】考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,learn在句中作非谓语动词,且此处表达的是一个目的,应用不定式做目的状语。故填to learn。
【10】考查固定短语。句意:他不仅是武术爱好者,而且练习太极拳30多年了。not only...but (also)…为固定短语,意为“不但……而且……”。故填but。
当分词做状语的时候,如果构成分词的动词与句子的主语构成主动关系,就使用现在分词做状语;当二者构成被动关系,使用过去分词做状语。如果分词的动作发生在谓语动词之前,就使用分词的完成式。如果分词与句子的主语没有关系,可以使用状语从句或者独立主格结构。
如第二小题,分析句子结构可知,make在句中作非谓语动词,且Jack Ma和make在逻辑上构成主谓关系,应用现在分词表主动,此处作伴随状语。故填making。

【题目】 If you want to learn why everything is usually cheaper, and what items are the best deals at your local or chain dollar or discount store, store employees have a lot of useful information. They tend to know what shoppers want — even before shoppers know themselves.
Everyone buys unnecessary things
Whether you shop at a chain dollar store such as Dollar Tree, Family Dollar or your local 99 cents store, not everything that’s on sale is necessarily worth purchasing. Bryan Waring, a former Dollar Tree employee, says that you’re not alone in buying more than necessary from these stores. “It seems basic, but everyone falls for this trap,” he says. “You go into a store where everything is cheap, and you walk out with things you don't need.” He suggests going into a store — yes, even the dollar store — with a checklist of things you truly need.
Everything is cheaper after the holiday season
Patricia, a seasonal worker at a Dollar Tree, says that the post-Christmas season means even more deals on everything from decorations to sweets. “After Christmas, all the gift wrap paper went to 50 cents, and all Christmas items were half price,” she says. “Even candy bars are 89 cents versus $ 1.”

【题目】 Tyler Skiuzacek’s father, Patrick, could not sleep through the night. It was 2007, and Patrick had just returned from a year in Iraq, where he served in the U. S. Army. Patrick Skluzacek was energetic and happy when he left for Iraq, Tyler says. But when he returned, he was unhappy and drinking alcohol too much. It turned out Patrick was suffering from sleep panic attacks. Patrick would wake up every night. His heart would beat too fast. He would sweat. The nighttime panic attacks prevented Patrick from feeling good the next day, because he was so tired.
Almost 10 years later, Tyler was in a position to help his father. He thought he could make a computer program that might help his father. So he entered a competition in Washington, D. C, trying to solve the problem Tyler’s father and other U. S. war veterans (老兵), were having. People called them”night terrors. ”The students had 36 hours to come up with a program. They called it myBivy—That name comes from bivouac, a military term for a safe place to sleep.
The application uses a smart watch and a smart phone together. The watch tracks the wearer’s heartbeat. It sends the data to the program on the smart phone. Research shows that a person’s heart rate will increase right before a night terror. So if the wearer’s heartbeat started to rise, myBivy would respond. The smart watch would vibrate and gently wake up the sleeping person. That was enough to prevent a night terror from happening.
Patrick wore the watch for two weeks to get used to it. Then, Tyler turned on the application. On the first night, the vibrations from the watch prevented 10 nightmares. Patrick said he had not slept that well in many years. Tyler and his team won the contest in Washington, D. C. The prize was $1,500. Then the group tried to raise more money from investors, and they were surprised when they took in over$25,000. By the spring of 2016, Tyler and his team were testing the app with volunteers, and hoped to make it available to the public soon.
【1】What might be the cause of Patrick’s problem?
A.His experience in the war.B.His drinking habit.

【2】We can learn from the second paragraph that ________.
A.the US government tries to help war veterans
B.people look down upon the night terrors
C.many other veterans suffer similar problems
D.myBivy was named after a great soldier
【3】What is the main idea of the third paragraph?
A.How effective the app is.B.How to download the app.
