【題目】閱讀下面材料，在空白處填入適當(dāng)?shù)膬?nèi)容或括號(hào)內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。

Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do. My degree, with honors, in English literature had not 【1】(real) prepared me for anything practical. I knew I felt like 【2】 (make) a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea 【3】 to do that. That’s when I learned about the Lighthouse Project.

I started my journey 【4】 a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers. I knew it would be a lot of hard work, 【5】that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time. In short, I did not take my 【6】(decide) to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. 【7】 did my family.

Eventually, however, I 【8】(win) the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among 【9】 candidates and survive the test alone. Several months later, I finally received a call 【10】(ask) me to report for the duty. I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where? What? Nigeria? I had no idea. But I was about to find out.

【答案】

【1】really

【2】making

【3】how

【4】as

【5】and

【6】decision

【7】Neither

【8】won

【9】the

【10】asking

【解析】

【1】really 考查副詞。在英語(yǔ)中提出使用副詞充當(dāng)狀語(yǔ)修飾動(dòng)詞、形容詞或者副詞。本句中使用副詞really修訂謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞had not prepared me for。

【2】making 考查固定搭配。短語(yǔ)feel like doing sth喜歡做某事；我知道我喜歡設(shè)法對(duì)這個(gè)社會(huì)產(chǎn)生起一點(diǎn)作用。

【3】how考查特殊疑問(wèn)詞。在英語(yǔ)中“特殊疑問(wèn)詞+不定式”可以充當(dāng)主語(yǔ)、賓語(yǔ)、表語(yǔ)和定語(yǔ)；本句中how和不定式連用，一起充當(dāng)idea的同位語(yǔ)。句意：但是我不知道如何做這件事情。

【4】as 考查介詞。介詞as通常接表示身份的名詞。句意：作為a Lighthouse Project項(xiàng)目的志愿者，我開(kāi)始了我的旅行。

【5】and 考查連詞。句意：我知道這會(huì)是很困難的工作，我也知道我會(huì)遠(yuǎn)離家人和朋友很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間。根據(jù)句意可知上下文之間是并列關(guān)系，所以使用并列連詞and。

【6】decision考查目的。本句中所有格my后面要接名詞長(zhǎng)度take的賓語(yǔ)，動(dòng)詞decide的名詞是decision。

【7】Neither 考查倒裝句。根據(jù)橫線后的did my family.可知本句是一個(gè)倒裝句，“neither+助動(dòng)詞/系動(dòng)詞/情態(tài)動(dòng)詞+另一主語(yǔ)”表示前面的情況同樣適用于另外一人。

【8】won 考查時(shí)態(tài)。本文通篇都使用一般過(guò)去時(shí)，所以本句也應(yīng)該使用過(guò)去式won。句意：最后我贏得了家人的支持。

【9】the 考查冠詞。本句使用定冠詞the特指參加本次活動(dòng)的所有的候選人。句意：經(jīng)過(guò)數(shù)不清的面試和陳述，我和其他候選人站在一起，并一直站到了最后。

【10】asking 考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。本句中動(dòng)詞ask與名詞call構(gòu)成主動(dòng)關(guān)系，所以使用現(xiàn)在分詞在句中充當(dāng)定語(yǔ)。句意：幾個(gè)月后，我接到一個(gè)讓我報(bào)道的電話。

【題目】Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks' time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive if the rain is spread throughout the year. If it falls within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.

Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes (沙丘) are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.

_________________________. In the deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs (懸崖) and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay under a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand, rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing –-very, very slowly ---as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.

Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.

【1】Many plants may survive in deserts when___________.

A. it is dry all the year round

B. the rain falls only in a few weeks

【2】Sand dunes are formed when____________.

A. sand piles up little by little

B. there is plenty of rain in a year

C. the sea has dried up over the years

D. pieces of rock get smaller

【3】The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means that in a desert there is_____.

A. too much sand

B. more sand than before

C. nothing except sand

D. something else besides sand

【4】It can be learned from the text that in a desert____________.

A. there is no rainfall throughout the year

B. life exists in rough conditions

C. all sand dunes are a few feet high

【題目】短文改錯(cuò)記敘文

Once, a man got on a bus to New York. Because he did not want to pay, so he hid in the toilet. But a passenger saw her. She tapped the person in front of her on the shoulder and say, “There’s a bum in toilet. Tell the bus driver.” The message was passing on from person to person. But somewhere along the way, it was changed. The bus driver told that there was a bomb in the toilet. He immediate stopped the bus and telephoned the police. When the police came, they told the passengers to get off the bus or stay far away. Then they closed the highway. As a result, a traffic jam of 15 mile long was soon caused. In the help of a dog, the police searched for two hours. Of course they found no tomb.

【題目】In the fall of 1985, I was a bright-eyed girl heading off to Howard University, aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twenty-one years later I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.

My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college at the age of 65. She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.

Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopted and biological children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic---and very emotional. A year later came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No. 3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.

You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 8. Our home was a complete zoo---a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant taking as few as one class each semester.

The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.

In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree！

I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you’re looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you’re in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won’t arrive in your life on one day. It’s a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams.

【1】When the author went to Howard University, her dream was to be __________.

A. a writer B. a teacher

C. a judge D. a doctor

【2】Why did the author quit school in her second year of college?

A. She wanted to study by herself.

B. She fell in love and got married.

C. She suffered from a serious illness.

D. She decided to look after her grandma.

【3】What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 4 and 5?

A. She was busy yet happy with her family life.

B. She ignored her guilty feeling for her sons.

C. She wanted to remain a full-time housewife.

D. She was too confused to make a correct choice.

【4】What does the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph?

A. Failure is the mother of success.

B. Little by little, one goes far.

C. Every coin has two sides.

D. Well begun, half done.

【5】Which of the following can best describe the author?

A. Caring an determined.

B. Honest and responsible.

C. Ambitious and sensitive.

D. Innocent and single-minded.
