六、根据所给中文完成句子（共6小题;每小题1.5分,满分9分）
51. 闻一多宁愿失去生命，也不愿意放弃真理.
Wen Yidu wuld _________________________________ the truth.
【答案】rather die than give up##rather lse his life than give up
【解析】wuld rather d sth than d sth“宁愿做某事也不愿意做某事”，die/lse ne’s life“失去生命”，give up“放弃”，主语为Wen Yidu，形容词性物主代词应用his。故填rather die/lse his life than give up。
52. 老师经常鼓励学生们相互紧密合作。
The teacher ften __________________________________ each ther.
【答案】encurages students t wrk clsely with
【解析】encurage sb. d sth.“鼓励某人做某事”，由“ften”可知，时态为一般现在时，主语“The teacher”为第三人称单数，谓语动词要用三单；students“学生们”，作encurage的宾语；wrk with sb.“与某人合作/工作”，动词短语；clsely“紧密地”，副词修饰动词wrk。故填encurages students t wrk clsely with。
53. 环境问题值得关注。

54. 你认为与同学友好相处容易吗?
D yu think _____________________________ yur classmates?
【答案】it’s easy t get n well with
【解析】对比中英文可知，空处缺少“友好相处容易”的翻译，it’s+形容词+t d sth表示“做某事……”，easy“容易的”，get n well with sb“与某人和睦相处”，故填it’s easy t get n well with。
55. 这场音乐会的票真贵啊!
Hw ________________________________!
【答案】expensive the tickets fr this cncert are
【解析】根据中文和“Hw…!”可知，本句是hw引导的感叹句，其结构为：Hw+形容词+主语+谓语；贵：expensive，形容词；这场音乐会的票：the tickets fr this cncert，作主语；the tickets作主语时，谓语动词be用are。故填expensive the tickets fr this cncert are。
56. 当时，李莉正在复习功课，而我正在浏览新闻。
