【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。

Earthquakes are quite common. In fact, thousands of earthquakes happen each day. Most of them are 【1】 weak to feel, though. During a big earthquake, there is often a big noise first. Then the earth shakes 【2】 (terrible) and many houses fall down.

As one of the most deadly natural disasters in the world, earthquakes often result 【3】 many people being injured or killed. In 2008, a severe earthquake struck China’s Sichuan Province, 【4】 (kill) more than 80,000 people there.

【5】 the great damage and deaths caused by the earthquake itself, other accidents such as fires often follow. More buildings may be destroyed and more deaths may be caused.

For centuries, man 【6】 (make) studies of earthquakes. About 2,000 years ago, for example, a Chinese scientist named Zhang Heng invented a machine, 【7】 could find out from which direction the earthquake waves came. With the rapid 【8】 (develop) of modern science and technology, we now know a lot 【9】 (much) about earthquakes. However, scientists still have difficulty predicting exactly when and where 【10】 earthquake will happen, and can’t stop it from happening.

【答案】

【1】 too

【2】terribly

【3】in

【4】killing

【5】Besides

【6】has been making

【7】which

【8】development

【9】more

【10】an

【解析】

【1】 too 固定搭配：too---to---，太---而不能。句意：多数的地震太小而不能感觉到。故填too。

【2】terribly 副词修饰动词，故填terribly。

【3】in 固定词组：result in导致，产生结果。句意：地震会带来很多人受伤或被杀死。故填in。

【4】killing 此处是现在分词做自然的结果状语，故填killing。

【5】Besides 句意：除了地震本身带来的严重伤害和死亡之外，像火灾之类的其他事故也会接踵而来。besides 介词，除---之外；besides另外，此外。故此处填Besides，注意大写开头。

【6】has been making 句意：很多世纪，人们一直在研究地震。根据局一刻值此处用现在完成进行时态。故填has been making。注意主谓一致。

【7】which 在这里a machine做先行词，指物，后面是which引导的非限制性定语从句。故填which。

【8】development 固定词组：with the development of---，随着---的发展。故填development。

【9】more 根据句中的a lot，a lot修饰比较级加强语气，故此处填more。

【10】an 句意：什么时候什么地点一次地震将要发生。Earthquake以元音开头，所以填an。

【名师点拨】

1.不定冠词a 和an的用法。a用在以元音开头的词前，表示“一”； an用在以辅音开头的词前，表示“一”。比如小题1，university 这个词以辅音开头，所以前面加a，表示一所大学。an important meeting 一个重要的会议；an interesting story 一个有趣的故事；an old man 一位老人；an hour 一小时；an honest boy 一个诚实的男孩；an American lawyer一个美国的律师； a useful tool 一个有用的工具；a European friend一位欧洲的朋友。

2. 以e结尾的形容词变成副词时，有的直接加ly ;有的把e去掉再加ly.

possible---possibly； simple---simply; gentle---gently; terrible---terribly; true---truly; flexible---flexibly

immediate--- immediately; brave---bravely; wise---wisely；active---actively

Everyone knows about straight-A students. We see them frequently in TV sitcoms (情景喜剧) and in movies. The kids at the top of the class get there by mastering a few basic techniques that others can learn in an easy way. Thus it is necessary for you to learn the secrets of becoming straight-A students.

Among the students we interviewed, study times are a matter of personal preference. Some work late at night when it is quiet ,whereas others awake early. And there are still others who decide to study as soon as they come home from school when the work is fresh in their minds. All of them agree, however, on the need for study time.“Whatever I was doing, I would find some time every day for studying,” says a top student from New Jersey.

Being organized is another habit they share in common. McCray, an outstanding student interviewed, runs track, plays football and is in a band . “I was so busy; I couldn’t waste time looking for a pencil or missing paper. I kept everything right where I could put my hands on it,” he says. Some students maintain two folders —one for the day’s assignment, another for papers completed and graded. However, some students have another system, filing the day’s papers in color-coded folders by subject.

The top students also take good notes while reading the text assignment. In fact, David Cieri, another top student interviewed,uses “my homemade” system in which he draws a line down the center of a notebook, writes notes from the text on one side and those from the lecture delivered by his teacher on the other. Then. He is able to review both aspects of the assignment at once .

Just before the bell rings, most students close their books, put away papers, whisper to friends and get ready to rush out. But the top students use the few minutes to write a two-or three-sentence summary of the lesson’s important points, which he or she scans before the next day’s class.

You can become a straight-A student by following the above secrets.
