Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2019·安徽省五校联盟第二次质检)We humans are addicted to sugar.That makes sense.All animals need sugar to live.It's the fuel that powers our cells.So it's not surprising that we're born to want the sweet stuff.
Sugar stores the sun's energy like a battery.After a meal,your body breaks down foods into their building blocks.It uses some sugar for energy right away.The rest get stored for the body to break down later.It's a myth that sugar makes you extremely excited,but having a sugary snack can give you a quick burst of energy.That's because the sugar in sweet foods is easy for your body to turn into fuel.When you eat other kinds of foods,like vegetables,it takes longer for your body to break the sugar down.
These days it's easy to find sweet snacks.Sodas,candy,cakes and even foods that seem healthy,such as yogurt,can be packed with sugar.Food makers add sugar,because they know that to humans,sweet makes everything taste better.Americans eat about 20 teaspoons of extra sugar every day.That's way more than what is good for us.
Eating too much sugar can cause more than a stomachache.It can make people overweight,decay the teeth and even cause diabetes.However,experts aren't worried about naturally sweet foods—the problem is added sugar.So go ahead and enjoy sweet apples or even sugarrich carrots that are also full of vitamins and other good stuff.
Even cake is great once in a while,as long as you don't overdo it.After all,no one wants life to be dull.And your body needs its fuel!
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章指出糖能给人体提供必需的能量,且易分解;虽然甜食尝起来可口,但是我们不要过多食用。

A.cause and effect

C.giving examples
D.making comparisons
A [写作手法题。根据第一段尾句“So it's not surprising that we're born to want the sweet stuff”和第二段倒数第二句“That's because the sugar in sweet foods is easy for your body to turn into fuel”,并结合第一、二段的内容可知,第一段解释了人天生需要糖的原因;第二段解释了甜食能快速补充能量的原因。据此可推知,第一、二段是通过解释因果的方法组织内容的。故A项正确。]

C [细节理解题。根据第三段第一、二句“These days it's easy to find sweet snacks.Sodas,candy,cakes and even foods that seem healthy,such as yogurt,can be packed with sugar”可知,甜食随处可见,即使是看起来健康的食品也会含有大量糖分,故人们会误食很多含糖食品。]

A.We'd better say no to sweet foods.
B.Experts are worried about added sugar.
C.Eating too much sugar is bad for our health.

4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Sugar Is Everywhere
B.Sugar Brings Happiness
C.Why Do We Love Sugar?
D.Why Does Sugar Make Us Fat?
C [标题判断题。通读全文可知,糖能给人体提供必需的能量,且易分解,人天生需要糖分;虽然甜食尝起来可口,但是食用过量的糖有害人体健康,我们最好食用不但富含糖分,还含有维生素和其他有益成分的天然食物。故C项最适合作本文标题。]

(2019·江西省八所重点中学联考)Devon Gallagher,a college graduate from Philadelphia,wants the world to know exactly where she's been during her worldwide vacation in a special way.
The traveler,who was born with a bone disease,had her right leg amputated(截肢) at the age of four.Although the amputation caused setbacks for Gallagher early on,she now sees it as nothing short of inspiration for living her best life.
To spread that message,Gallagher has taken to social media,where she shares photos of her travels across the globe,but instead of simply using a geotag,she writes her location across her artificial leg before taking a picture.
Now she has been taking pictures across the Continent,which show her cycling over the canal in Amsterdam relaxing on a wall overlooking the city of Barcelona,posing with a waffle in Brussels,taking spectacular pictures in Athens and enjoying a river cruise in Budapest,all with the wellknown locations written on her artificial leg.
“I get a new leg every two years and I can choose the design on it.One day I had a sudden thought to get a chalkboard,” Gallagher said.“My mum and grandmother weren't too keen on the idea,but my friends thought it was great and told me to go for it,so I did.”
Gallagher said people often stare when she's writing on her leg,but once she shares the photos,she receives only positive feedback.“My leg hasn't stopped me from doing anything I've wanted to do,” she said.“I don't know if it's my determination to prove to myself that I can do it,but regardless,I've been able to keep up with my peers and lead a pretty great life.”
Gallagher shows us that you should never let anything stand in the way of your dreams.And if life gives you an artificial leg,make art.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。Devon Gallagher在四岁时因患骨科疾病右腿被截肢,但是这并没有影响她对梦想的追求。她到世界各地旅行,并将自己的旅行情况写在假肢上并拍照片发到社交媒体。她的故事告诉人们:不要让任何东西阻碍你追求梦想。
5.What message did Gallagher want to spread in her special way?
A.She enjoys her traveling across the globe.
B.She suffers little from her leg amputation.
C.She looks on her misfortune as another form of blessing.
D.She has exactly fallen in love with posting photos online.
C [细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Although the amputation caused setbacks for Gallagher early on,she now sees it as nothing short of inspiration for living her best life”可知,虽然截肢在早期给Gallagher带来了挫折,但她现在认为这是对她过最好的生活的激励;并结合第三段可知,她想要传达的信息是她要将自己的不幸看作是另一种形式的幸运,故C项正确。]
6.What does the word “which” underlined in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.The Continent.
B.The pictures.
C.The leg.
D.The locations.
B [代词指代题。根据第四段第一句中的“Now she has been taking pictures across the Continent,which show her cycling over the canal in Amsterdam”可知,现在,她正在欧洲大陆各地拍摄照片,照片中她骑着自行车穿过阿姆斯特丹的运河。分析该句结构可知,该句为非限制性定语从句,先行词为pictures,which指代先行词,在从句中作主语,故B项正确。]
7.Gallagher can best be described as ________.
A.helpful and ambitious
B.friendly and generous
C.determined and creative
D.independent and sensible
C [推理判断题。通读全文可知,Devon Gallagher在四岁时因患骨科疾病右腿被截肢,但是这并没有影响她对梦想的追求;她到世界各地旅行,并将自己的旅行情况写在假肢上并拍照片发到社交媒体。据此可推知,Devon Gallagher有毅力而且有创造力,故C项正确。]
8.Which of the following might be the best title for the text?
A.Never Too Late to Share
B.A Special Artificial Leg
C.An Outstanding Photographer
D.Gallagher's Summer Holidays
B [标题归纳题。根据文章尾句“And if life gives you an artificial leg,make art”并结合全文其他内容可知,文章主要讲述了Devon Gallagher虽然被截肢,但是这并没有影响她对梦想的追求,她到世界各地旅行,并将自己的旅行情况写在假肢上并拍照片发到社交媒体。故B项最适合作文章标题。]
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
(2019·大连市一模)In a study recently published in the journal Neuron,researchers found that super memorizers don't have unusually large brain regions that allow them to remember a lot of information.__1__.Here are a few of their favorite tricks that can help you to remember things in your everyday life.
To Remember: New words
Technique: Change routine
In a study,a group of students studied a list of words in two separate sessions. Some studied in a messy room and some in a neat space.One group of students spent both sessions in the same room,while the other split the sessions between the two environments.During a test,the students who studied in multiple places remembered much more.__2__.That includes the time of day,the music in the background,whether you sit or stand,etc.
To Remember: Your PIN
Technique: Count it out
You could use your birthday,or your phone number,but identity thieves have a way of figuring those numbers out.__3__.Write a fourword sentence,then count the number of letters in each word.For instance,“This is my PIN”=4223.
To Remember: Faces
Technique: Focus on noses
While some super memorizers specialize in associating names with faces,the memory palace technique doesn't work as well if the image of the face is changed in any way.Rather than focusing on eyes,as most people do,focus on the centre or to the left of a person's nose.__4__.
To Remember: Facts & figures
Technique: __5__
To learn and remember statistics,reviewing the material repeatedly over a longer time is far more effective than repeating it in a shorter one.If your exam is in a week,study today and then again in a day or two.If it's a month away,study today and then wait a week before your second session.
A.Value exams
B.Give yourself time
C.This allows you to take in their whole face
D.This brain structures are in fact the same as ours
E.Instead,try this tip from Dominic O'Brien,an eighttime World Memory Champion
F.The theory is that your brain links the words to the environment around you
G.Studies showed that varying other aspects of your environment can also help
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了几个有助于记忆的技巧。
1.D [根据上文中的“super memorizers don't have unusually large brain regions”可知,那些记忆达人并没有非常大的脑区域,他们的大脑结构实际上和我们的一样,故选D项。]
2.G [承接上文“During a test,the students who studied in multiple places remembered much more”,并与空后一句“That includes the time of day,the music in the background,whether you sit or stand,etc”呼应可知,其他环境变化的方面对记忆也是有帮助的,这与本段介绍的技巧Change routine吻合,故选G项。]
3.E [根据空前一句“You could use...figuring those numbers out”和空处下文的内容可知,空处推荐了一种不同的方法,这与第一段中效仿记忆达人的有效记忆策略呼应,故选E项。]
4.C [根据本段的记忆主题Faces和空前一句“Rather than focusing on eyes...a person's nose”可知,通过集中注意力于一个人的鼻子可以让你记住一个人的整个面孔,故选C项。]
5.B [根据该段第一句“To learn and remember statistics,reviewing the material repeatedly over a longer time is far more effective than repeating it in a shorter one”,并结合对本段的整体理解可推知,本段推荐的记忆技巧是给自己时间,故选B项。]
Ⅲ.语法填空
(2019·重庆市七校联考)Pollution takes away all the beauty of the beaches of Hawaii.I hate to go to the beaches on 1.________(sun)weekends and see rubbish bags lying on the sand,cigarette butts(烟头) 2.________ (bury)in the sand,and soda cans floating in the ocean.
One thing that really annoys me is that I see 3.________(tour)who visit Hawaii leave their rubbish on the beaches.I was always taught after drinking soda to throw the can into the place 4.________ it should stay—the trash can.Another thing that annoys me is that some people walk right by rubbish 5.________ pretend that it's not there.

【语篇解读】 本文主要讨论了海滩污染的问题。
1.sunny [考查词形转换。修饰名词一般用形容词,故用形容词sunny修饰其后的名词weekends。]
2.buried [考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,bury和其逻辑主语cigarette butts 构成动宾关系,故用其过去分词形式作宾语补足语。]
3.tourists [考查词形转换。结合定语从句的关系词who可知,此处的先行词为表示人的名词,且定语从句中的谓语动词为复数,故用名词复数形式。]
4.where [考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,在从句中作地点状语,修饰先行词the place,故填where。]
5.but [考查连词。根据语境可知,空处前后存在逻辑上的转折关系,故用连词but。]
6.for [考查介词。此处考查固定词组be to blame for sth.“对某事负有责任”,故用介词for。]
7.ourselves [考查代词。与句子主语we呼应,此处应用反身代词ourselves作动词blame的宾语。]
8.to solve [考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处应用动词不定式,表目的。]
9.importantly [考查副词。副词一般修饰形容词、副词、动词,甚至整个句子,在句子中作状语。故用副词importantly,修饰整个句子。]
10.are damaged [考查动词的时态和语态。分析句子结构可知, damage和主语the beaches之间是被动关系,根据该句中的“need”可知,此处叙述一般的情况,故用一般现在时的被动语态。]

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2019·安徽省示范高中模拟)“Joe? Is that you?” The woman speaking to me at the baseball game looked a little familiar.“Marci?” I asked.“It is you!”she cried out,smiling broadly.“It's good to see you again!”
It was good to see Marci,too.Off and on during the past few decades,I've wondered about her.I almost tried to search for her a few years ago after talking to a friend who had indicated that the 1990s had been pretty rough for Marci.So meeting her at the baseball game was really a surprise.
We spent a few minutes talking about our lives—the good old,bad old days.Then Marci grew quiet for a moment.“You know,Joe,” she said,“I've always wanted to tell you how...how...sorry I am for the way I treated you.You must have been hurt both physically and mentally.”I was a little embarrassed.I turned and looked at her.“It's OK,” I said,“No big deal!” “But I was such a jerk,” she continued.Yes you were,I thought.“We were both pretty young,” I smiled,“I know,” she said.“It's just always bothered me,remembering how mean I was to you.And I've wanted to tell you that I'm sorry.” The expression on her face was warm and sincere.And there was something in her eyes—it looked a lot like relief.“OK,” I said.“Apology accepted!” Overcome by the sweetness of the moment,I reached an arm around her and gave her a quick hug.Just then,the crowd erupted with a huge cheer,and Marci and I both returned our attention to the game.By the time I looked over to where she had been,she was gone.But the warm,wonderful feeling of our brief exchange was still there,and continues to this day whenever I think about it.
It isn't enough to just say “I'm sorry” and “You're forgiven”.But when those words are truly felt and sincerely expressed,they can open the door to miracles of the heart.Forgiveness can bring peace to an injured soul—even years after the fact.Even at a baseball game.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。“我”在棒球赛场见到了多年未见的朋友Marci。她见到“我”后为以前那样对待“我”向“我”真诚地道歉,“我”立刻原谅了她,之后我们都感觉到温暖和愉快。
1.What kind of life did Marci live during the late 20th century according to the passage?
A.Happy. B.Busy.
C.Hard. D.Simple.
C [细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“I almost tried to search for her a few years ago after talking to a friend who had indicated that the 1990s had been pretty rough for Marci”可知,在20世纪90年代Marci生活得很艰难,故C项正确。]
2.What does the underlined word “jerk” in the third paragraph mean?
A.A humorous person.
B.A cruel person.
C.A careless person.
D.An honest person.
B [词义猜测题。根据画线词下文中的“It's just always bothered me,remembering how mean I was to you”可知,当时她对“我”很刻薄,这件事一直困扰着她,再结合画线词所在句可知,她认为她是一个刻薄的人;据此可知,画线词与B项含义相近,故B项正确。]
3.Why did Marci look in relief after talking with the author?
A.Because her favorite team won the game.
B.Because she learned Joe was living a good life.
C.Because she made an apology to the author.
D.Because she found she was not mean any longer.
C [细节理解题。根据第三段中的“‘And I've wanted to tell you that I'm sorry.’ The expression on her face was warm and sincere.And there was something in her eyes—it looked a lot like relief”可知,由于Marci向我真诚地道了歉,所以她的眼里露出了轻松,故C项正确。]
4.What might be the best title for the passage?
A.Excitement of a Baseball Game.
B.Mental Burden of a Woman.
C.Miracles of Forgiveness.
D.Relief of Finding a Friend.
C [标题判断题。通读全文可知,文章最后两句为全文的主题句;结合全文内容可知,本文通过讲述“我”接受朋友Marci的真诚道歉,体会到原谅可以抚慰受伤的心灵的故事,说明了原谅创造的奇迹,故C项最适合作为本文标题。]

(2019·贵阳市普通高中第一学期监测)You try to keep your eyes wide open while watching a basketball match or a wonderful firework show in case you might miss something exciting in just the blink of an eye.But in fact,humans blink about 15 times per minute on average.Have you ever missed anything because you blinked? Probably not.Why is that?
According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September,our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink.It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an image without interruption.
In order to understand how this works,a group of scientists at the German Primate Center and the University Medical Center Gottingen in Germany conducted an experiment.In the study,the participants were asked to look at patterns on a screen whose direction could be interpreted in different ways,such as horizontally(水平地) or vertically(垂直地).When one pattern was about to disappear and the next one was about to come,the participants had to indicate the direction that the next pattern would appear.
The researchers found that when the directions of two patterns didn't match,the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory was activated.This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction.
“The medial prefrontal cortex(额叶皮层) adjusts current visual information with previously obtained information,and thus enables us to perceive the world with more stability,even when we briefly close our eyes to blink,” Caspar Schwiedrzik explained in Science Daily.He is the first author of the study and also a scientist at the German Primate Center.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。研究发现,眨眼并不会错过细节并解释了其原因。
5.We don't miss anything when blinking because our brain can ________.
A.deal with the missing image
B.remember all that we see
C.imagine what our eyes miss
D.put our pieces of memory together
A [推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September,our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink.”可知,根据九月份发表在《当代生物学》杂志上的一项新研究,我们的大脑有能力跳过我们眨眼时形成的暂时黑暗。据此可推知,由于我们的大脑能处理丢失的图像,所以眨眼不会让我们错过任何东西,故A项正确。]
6.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Our brain.
B.Visual information.
C.Current Biology.
D.The temporary darkness.
B [代词指代题。根据第二段第二句“It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an image without interruption”可知,大脑可以在短时间内保存视觉信息,然后将其组合在一起形成不中断的图像,故可推知,it指代上文中的“visual information”,故B项正确。]
7.What do we know about the experiment?
A.The two patterns appear at the same time.
B.Visual memory can be more activated by similarity.
C.Participants can interpret patterns differently.
D.The different directions activated visual memory.
D [细节理解题。根据第四段中的“when the directions of two patterns didn't match,the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory was activated.This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction”可知,当两个模式的方向不一致时,则掌握视觉记忆的大脑区域被激活;当两种模式在同一方向时,则这个区域显示出较少的活动。据此可知,不同的方向能激活视觉记忆,故D项正确。]
8.What would be the best title for this passage?
A.The Brain's Structure
B.The Brain's Activated Patterns
C.The Brain's Special Skill
D.The Brain's Orientation
C [标题归纳题。通读全文可知,一项科学研究发现:眨眼不会错过细节,即大脑有能力在短时间内保存视觉信息,然后将其组合在一起形成不中断的图像信息。故C项最适合作本文的标题。]

(2019·安徽省五校联盟第二次质检)We humans are addicted to sugar.That makes sense.All animals need sugar to live.It's the fuel that powers our cells.So it's not surprising that we're born to want the sweet stuff.
Sugar stores the sun's energy like a battery.After a meal,your body breaks down foods into their building blocks.It uses some sugar for energy right away.The rest get stored for the body to break down later.It's a myth that sugar makes you extremely excited,but having a sugary snack can give you a quick burst of energy.That's because the sugar in sweet foods is easy for your body to turn into fuel.When you eat other kinds of foods,like vegetables,it takes longer for your body to break the sugar down.
These days it's easy to find sweet snacks.Sodas,candy,cakes and even foods that seem healthy,such as yogurt,can be packed with sugar.Food makers add sugar,because they know that to humans,sweet makes everything taste better.Americans eat about 20 teaspoons of extra sugar every day.That's way more than what is good for us.
Eating too much sugar can cause more than a stomachache.It can make people overweight,decay the teeth and even cause diabetes.However,experts aren't worried about naturally sweet foods—the problem is added sugar.So go ahead and enjoy sweet apples or even sugarrich carrots that are also full of vitamins and other good stuff.
Even cake is great once in a while,as long as you don't overdo it.After all,no one wants life to be dull.And your body needs its fuel!

(2019·江西省八所重点中学联考)Devon Gallagher,a college graduate from Philadelphia,wants the world to know exactly where she's been during her worldwide vacation in a special way.
The traveler,who was born with a bone disease,had her right leg amputated(截肢) at the age of four.Although the amputation caused setbacks for Gallagher early on,she now sees it as nothing short of inspiration for living her best life.
To spread that message,Gallagher has taken to social media,where she shares photos of her travels across the globe,but instead of simply using a geotag,she writes her location across her artificial leg before taking a picture.
Now she has been taking pictures across the Continent,which show her cycling over the canal in Amsterdam relaxing on a wall overlooking the city of Barcelona,posing with a waffle in Brussels,taking spectacular pictures in Athens and enjoying a river cruise in Budapest,all with the wellknown locations written on her artificial leg.
“I get a new leg every two years and I can choose the design on it.One day I had a sudden thought to get a chalkboard,” Gallagher said.“My mum and grandmother weren't too keen on the idea,but my friends thought it was great and told me to go for it,so I did.”
Gallagher said people often stare when she's writing on her leg,but once she shares the photos,she receives only positive feedback.“My leg hasn't stopped me from doing anything I've wanted to do,” she said.“I don't know if it's my determination to prove to myself that I can do it,but regardless,I've been able to keep up with my peers and lead a pretty great life.”
Gallagher shows us that you should never let anything stand in the way of your dreams.And if life gives you an artificial leg,make art.

A.She enjoys her traveling across the globe.
B.She suffers little from her leg amputation.
C.She looks on her misfortune as another form of blessing.
D.She has exactly fallen in love with posting photos online.
C [细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Although the amputation caused setbacks for Gallagher early on,she now sees it as nothing short of inspiration for living her best life”可知,虽然截肢在早期给Gallagher带来了挫折,但她现在认为这是对她过最好的生活的激励;并结合第三段可知,她想要传达的信息是她要将自己的不幸看作是另一种形式的幸运,故C项正确。]
6.What does the word “which” underlined in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.The Continent.
B.The pictures.
C.The leg.
D.The locations.
B [代词指代题。根据第四段第一句中的“Now she has been taking pictures across the Continent,which show her cycling over the canal in Amsterdam”可知,现在,她正在欧洲大陆各地拍摄照片,照片中她骑着自行车穿过阿姆斯特丹的运河。分析该句结构可知,该句为非限制性定语从句,先行词为pictures,which指代先行词,在从句中作主语,故B项正确。]

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
(2019·大连市一模)In a study recently published in the journal Neuron,researchers found that super memorizers don't have unusually large brain regions that allow them to remember a lot of information.__1__.Here are a few of their favorite tricks that can help you to remember things in your everyday life.
To Remember: New words
Technique: Change routine
In a study,a group of students studied a list of words in two separate sessions. Some studied in a messy room and some in a neat space.One group of students spent both sessions in the same room,while the other split the sessions between the two environments.During a test,the students who studied in multiple places remembered much more.__2__.That includes the time of day,the music in the background,whether you sit or stand,etc.
To Remember: Your PIN
Technique: Count it out
You could use your birthday,or your phone number,but identity thieves have a way of figuring those numbers out.__3__.Write a fourword sentence,then count the number of letters in each word.For instance,“This is my PIN”=4223.
To Remember: Faces
Technique: Focus on noses
While some super memorizers specialize in associating names with faces,the memory palace technique doesn't work as well if the image of the face is changed in any way.Rather than focusing on eyes,as most people do,focus on the centre or to the left of a person's nose.__4__.
To Remember: Facts & figures
Technique: __5__
To learn and remember statistics,reviewing the material repeatedly over a longer time is far more effective than repeating it in a shorter one.If your exam is in a week,study today and then again in a day or two.If it's a month away,study today and then wait a week before your second session.
A.Value exams
B.Give yourself time
C.This allows you to take in their whole face
D.This brain structures are in fact the same as ours
E.Instead,try this tip from Dominic O'Brien,an eighttime World Memory Champion
F.The theory is that your brain links the words to the environment around you
G.Studies showed that varying other aspects of your environment can also help
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了几个有助于记忆的技巧。
1.D [根据上文中的“super memorizers don't have unusually large brain regions”可知,那些记忆达人并没有非常大的脑区域,他们的大脑结构实际上和我们的一样,故选D项。]
2.G [承接上文“During a test,the students who studied in multiple places remembered much more”,并与空后一句“That includes the time of day,the music in the background,whether you sit or stand,etc”呼应可知,其他环境变化的方面对记忆也是有帮助的,这与本段介绍的技巧Change routine吻合,故选G项。]
3.E [根据空前一句“You could use...figuring those numbers out”和空处下文的内容可知,空处推荐了一种不同的方法,这与第一段中效仿记忆达人的有效记忆策略呼应,故选E项。]
4.C [根据本段的记忆主题Faces和空前一句“Rather than focusing on eyes...a person's nose”可知,通过集中注意力于一个人的鼻子可以让你记住一个人的整个面孔,故选C项。]
5.B [根据该段第一句“To learn and remember statistics,reviewing the material repeatedly over a longer time is far more effective than repeating it in a shorter one”,并结合对本段的整体理解可推知,本段推荐的记忆技巧是给自己时间,故选B项。]

【语篇解读】 本文主要讨论了海滩污染的问题。
1.sunny [考查词形转换。修饰名词一般用形容词,故用形容词sunny修饰其后的名词weekends。]
2.buried [考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,bury和其逻辑主语cigarette butts 构成动宾关系,故用其过去分词形式作宾语补足语。]
3.tourists [考查词形转换。结合定语从句的关系词who可知,此处的先行词为表示人的名词,且定语从句中的谓语动词为复数,故用名词复数形式。]
4.where [考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,在从句中作地点状语,修饰先行词the place,故填where。]
5.but [考查连词。根据语境可知,空处前后存在逻辑上的转折关系,故用连词but。]
6.for [考查介词。此处考查固定词组be to blame for sth.“对某事负有责任”,故用介词for。]
7.ourselves [考查代词。与句子主语we呼应,此处应用反身代词ourselves作动词blame的宾语。]
8.to solve [考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处应用动词不定式,表目的。]
9.importantly [考查副词。副词一般修饰形容词、副词、动词,甚至整个句子,在句子中作状语。故用副词importantly,修饰整个句子。]
10.are damaged [考查动词的时态和语态。分析句子结构可知, damage和主语the beaches之间是被动关系,根据该句中的“need”可知,此处叙述一般的情况,故用一般现在时的被动语态。]

(2019·安徽省示范高中模拟)“Joe? Is that you?” The woman speaking to me at the baseball game looked a little familiar.“Marci?” I asked.“It is you!”she cried out,smiling broadly.“It's good to see you again!”
It was good to see Marci,too.Off and on during the past few decades,I've wondered about her.I almost tried to search for her a few years ago after talking to a friend who had indicated that the 1990s had been pretty rough for Marci.So meeting her at the baseball game was really a surprise.
We spent a few minutes talking about our lives—the good old,bad old days.Then Marci grew quiet for a moment.“You know,Joe,” she said,“I've always wanted to tell you how...how...sorry I am for the way I treated you.You must have been hurt both physically and mentally.”I was a little embarrassed.I turned and looked at her.“It's OK,” I said,“No big deal!” “But I was such a jerk,” she continued.Yes you were,I thought.“We were both pretty young,” I smiled,“I know,” she said.“It's just always bothered me,remembering how mean I was to you.And I've wanted to tell you that I'm sorry.” The expression on her face was warm and sincere.And there was something in her eyes—it looked a lot like relief.“OK,” I said.“Apology accepted!” Overcome by the sweetness of the moment,I reached an arm around her and gave her a quick hug.Just then,the crowd erupted with a huge cheer,and Marci and I both returned our attention to the game.By the time I looked over to where she had been,she was gone.But the warm,wonderful feeling of our brief exchange was still there,and continues to this day whenever I think about it.
It isn't enough to just say “I'm sorry” and “You're forgiven”.But when those words are truly felt and sincerely expressed,they can open the door to miracles of the heart.Forgiveness can bring peace to an injured soul—even years after the fact.Even at a baseball game.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。“我”在棒球赛场见到了多年未见的朋友Marci。她见到“我”后为以前那样对待“我”向“我”真诚地道歉,“我”立刻原谅了她,之后我们都感觉到温暖和愉快。
1.What kind of life did Marci live during the late 20th century according to the passage?
A.Happy. B.Busy.
C.Hard. D.Simple.
C [细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“I almost tried to search for her a few years ago after talking to a friend who had indicated that the 1990s had been pretty rough for Marci”可知,在20世纪90年代Marci生活得很艰难,故C项正确。]
2.What does the underlined word “jerk” in the third paragraph mean?
A.A humorous person.
B.A cruel person.
C.A careless person.
D.An honest person.
B [词义猜测题。根据画线词下文中的“It's just always bothered me,remembering how mean I was to you”可知,当时她对“我”很刻薄,这件事一直困扰着她,再结合画线词所在句可知,她认为她是一个刻薄的人;据此可知,画线词与B项含义相近,故B项正确。]
3.Why did Marci look in relief after talking with the author?
A.Because her favorite team won the game.
B.Because she learned Joe was living a good life.
C.Because she made an apology to the author.
D.Because she found she was not mean any longer.
C [细节理解题。根据第三段中的“‘And I've wanted to tell you that I'm sorry.’ The expression on her face was warm and sincere.And there was something in her eyes—it looked a lot like relief”可知,由于Marci向我真诚地道了歉,所以她的眼里露出了轻松,故C项正确。]
4.What might be the best title for the passage?
A.Excitement of a Baseball Game.
B.Mental Burden of a Woman.
C.Miracles of Forgiveness.
D.Relief of Finding a Friend.
C [标题判断题。通读全文可知,文章最后两句为全文的主题句;结合全文内容可知,本文通过讲述“我”接受朋友Marci的真诚道歉,体会到原谅可以抚慰受伤的心灵的故事,说明了原谅创造的奇迹,故C项最适合作为本文标题。]

(2019·贵阳市普通高中第一学期监测)You try to keep your eyes wide open while watching a basketball match or a wonderful firework show in case you might miss something exciting in just the blink of an eye.But in fact,humans blink about 15 times per minute on average.Have you ever missed anything because you blinked? Probably not.Why is that?
According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September,our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink.It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an image without interruption.
In order to understand how this works,a group of scientists at the German Primate Center and the University Medical Center Gottingen in Germany conducted an experiment.In the study,the participants were asked to look at patterns on a screen whose direction could be interpreted in different ways,such as horizontally(水平地) or vertically(垂直地).When one pattern was about to disappear and the next one was about to come,the participants had to indicate the direction that the next pattern would appear.
The researchers found that when the directions of two patterns didn't match,the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory was activated.This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction.
“The medial prefrontal cortex(额叶皮层) adjusts current visual information with previously obtained information,and thus enables us to perceive the world with more stability,even when we briefly close our eyes to blink,” Caspar Schwiedrzik explained in Science Daily.He is the first author of the study and also a scientist at the German Primate Center.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。研究发现,眨眼并不会错过细节并解释了其原因。
5.We don't miss anything when blinking because our brain can ________.
A.deal with the missing image
B.remember all that we see
C.imagine what our eyes miss
D.put our pieces of memory together
A [推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September,our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink.”可知,根据九月份发表在《当代生物学》杂志上的一项新研究,我们的大脑有能力跳过我们眨眼时形成的暂时黑暗。据此可推知,由于我们的大脑能处理丢失的图像,所以眨眼不会让我们错过任何东西,故A项正确。]
6.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Our brain.
B.Visual information.
C.Current Biology.
D.The temporary darkness.
B [代词指代题。根据第二段第二句“It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an image without interruption”可知,大脑可以在短时间内保存视觉信息,然后将其组合在一起形成不中断的图像,故可推知,it指代上文中的“visual information”,故B项正确。]
7.What do we know about the experiment?
A.The two patterns appear at the same time.
B.Visual memory can be more activated by similarity.
C.Participants can interpret patterns differently.
D.The different directions activated visual memory.
D [细节理解题。根据第四段中的“when the directions of two patterns didn't match,the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory was activated.This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction”可知,当两个模式的方向不一致时,则掌握视觉记忆的大脑区域被激活;当两种模式在同一方向时,则这个区域显示出较少的活动。据此可知,不同的方向能激活视觉记忆,故D项正确。]
8.What would be the best title for this passage?
A.The Brain's Structure
B.The Brain's Activated Patterns
C.The Brain's Special Skill
D.The Brain's Orientation
C [标题归纳题。通读全文可知,一项科学研究发现:眨眼不会错过细节,即大脑有能力在短时间内保存视觉信息,然后将其组合在一起形成不中断的图像信息。故C项最适合作本文的标题。]
