【題目】People can often see a talking parrot on a TV show, in a movie, or even in someone’s home. The parrot has learned 【1】 (copy) sounds that people make. Dolphins, bats, and some apes also copy sounds. Now we can add elephants 【2】 this list of copycats (盲目的模仿者).

Dr. Joyce Poole is a zoologist, 【3】 studies the sounds of elephants. While she was in Kenya, she would hear strange noises 【4】 (make) by Mlaika after sunset. Mlaika was 【5】 8-year-old African elephant 【6】 it lived near a highway.

Dr. Poole says that she couldn’t tell the difference between Mlaika’s call and the 【7】 (distance) truck noise. Why did 【8】 copy the sounds of the trucks driving by? Animals that are able to copy sounds may enjoy 【9】 (practice) new sounds. When they are kept outside of their natural environment, they may copy unusual sounds.

So far Dr. Poole 【10】 (spend) 18 years with two female Asian elephants. Asian elephants make sounds like birds to talk with one another.

Parrots, dolphins, humans, and elephants show that being a copycat is one way that animals and people make new friends and keep old ones.

【答案】

【1】to copy / copying

【2】to

【3】who

【4】made

【5】an

【6】and

【7】distant

【8】it

【9】practising / practicing

【10】has spent

【解析】

試題解析：這是一篇說明文，講述的一些動物可以模仿別的聲音，比如鸚鵡，海豚，蝙蝠，猩猩。Dr. Joyce Poole就是一個研究大象聲音的動物學家，發(fā)現(xiàn)大象能像鳥一樣發(fā)出聲音來和其他大象交流。

【1】to copy / copying考察固定搭配。learn to do sth.或者learn doing sth.固定搭配，意思是學會做某事。故填to copy / copying。

【2】to考察介詞。add to…意思是把…增加到…，這句話意思是現(xiàn)在我們可以把大象增加到盲目模仿者的清單上了。故填to。

【3】who考察關(guān)系代詞 。這是一個定語從句，who做這個定語從句的關(guān)系代詞，Dr. Joyce Poole是一個動物學家，一個學習大象的聲音的動物學家。故填who。

【4】made 考察動詞。made by…意思是由…產(chǎn)生的。這句話意思是她能在日落之后聽到由Mlaika發(fā)出的奇怪的聲音。故填made。

【5】an考察冠詞。8-year-old African elephant，8發(fā)的是元音，故填an。

【6】and考察連詞。8-year-old African elephant 和it lived near a highway.是兩個并列的成分，故用and連接。故填and。

【7】distant考察形容詞。distant意思是遙遠的，意思是遙遠的卡車的聲音，故填distance的形容詞diatant。

【8】it考察代詞。it代指the elephant。故填it。

【9】practising / practicing考察動詞。enjoy doing sth.意思是喜歡做某事，固定搭配。故填practice的ing形式 practising / practicing。

【10】has spent 考察動詞時態(tài)。當so far出現(xiàn)在句子中時，句子時態(tài)要用現(xiàn)在完成時，故填has spent。

【題目】When my friends went to college in great delight, I restarted my senior high school life．My spirit sank．Surrounded by strange classmates, I felt like I was in a maze and was sorry about myself．There were some complex feelings in my minds．I was frightened, nervous and lonely．

To make matters worse, I recalled my failure again and again, which put more pressure on me than I could bear．As a result, I was always feeling down during class time．

With the teacher’s help, I eventually got over my depression．From then on, I no longer bowed my head and began smiling to my classmates．I would put up my hand confidently in class and play with my new friends in my spare time．Meanwhile, I was gradually embraced by my classmates．

Now faced with fierce competition, we all study hard because we know that every second counts．Moreover, there is an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect between us．I love my class; I love my classmates!

To be frank, I still have a thirst for my dream university, but I’m not afraid of failure because I can profit by it．With parents and teachers’ encouragement, I’m quite certain of my success and I’m sure I can fly high．

【題目】The sharing economy has grown in recent years to include everything from apartment' sharing to car sharing to community tool sharing. Since 2009, a new form of sharing economy has been emerging in neighborhoods throughout the US and around the world-Little Free Library. The libraries are boxes placed in neighborhoods from which residents can withdraw（取出） and deposit（存入） books. Little Free Libraries come in all shapes and sizes. Some libraries also have themes, focusing on books for children, adults, or tour guides.

In 2009. Tod Bol built the first Little Free Library as a gift to his mother, who was a devoted reader. When he saw the people of his community gathering around it, exchanging conversation as well as books, he knew he wanted to take his simple idea further. "I think Little Free Libraries open the door to conversations we want to have with each other," Bol said. .

Since then, his idea has become a movement, spreading from state to state and country to country. According to Little FreeLibrary.org, there are now 18,000 0f the little structures around the world, located in each of the 50 US states and 70 countries in Europe, Africa and Asia.

The Internet has helped to spread Little Free Libraries. But an Atlantic article says the little, structures serve as a cure for a world of e-reader downloads . The little wooden boxes are refreshingly physical and human. For many people, the sense of discovery is Little Free Libraries' main appeal. "A girl walking home from school might pick up a graphic novel that gets her excited about reading; a man on his way to the bus stop might find a volume of poetry that changes his outlook on life," says the Atlantic article. "Every book is a potential source of inspiration "

B. Little Free Libraries are physical and human.
