A local primary school is considering using tablet computers(平板电脑)in all classrooms from next year. The following text has been written by a teacher at the school.

On one hand, there are many a____57____to use tablets in the classroom.
Firstly, tablets could improve productivity( 效 率 )during the school day. Because of their familiarity with computers and mobile phones, many of our students can type faster than they can write by hand. T___58___ , using tablets in the classroom could reduce the time it takes for them to complete tasks. Additionally, there are endless tablet functions(功能)which could provide interesting teaching a___59___. For example, we could play computer games to teach Maths, or make simple flashes to show how magnets behave. Also, students could take photos outdoors and then use them for writing tasks.
However, we must also consider the possible problems with introducing tablets to our classrooms. Some students may play with the tablets instead of f ___60___ on their work. Another problem is that, while many students can use tablets already, many of our teachers are not good at it and would need to be trained. We may also have problems with the tablets breaking, which would be very expensive to r___61___ . This is in addition to the cost of buying the tablets in the first place.
All in all, even though using tablets in the classroom may have many problems, it seems that it would be a wonderful opportunity for students and teachers at our school. There are a lot of costs indeed, but it would c____62____prove to be a worthwhile investment(物有所值的投资).

The next on my list is the language problem. When one first decides to go to China the first thought that crosses a___58___mind is “how am I going to communicate?!!?” Although most Chinese are very interested in the English language, the fact remains that except the major cities like Beijing and Shanghai, the English language knowledge of most Chinese is very poor if not zero.

Do you remember when you wrote a letter last time? If the answer is “not recently”, don’t worry. You are not a _____56_____ .
A survey of 1,000 teenagers around the world done by a French company BIC found that a third of today’s teenagers had never written a letter, half had not written a thank-you letter, and a quarter had not even written a birthday or Christmas card. In fact, 58 percent of teenagers c___57___ that handwriting was “too slow” and 17 percent believed it was “outdated”.
These results have caused w___58___that the art of handwriting may one day die out
“Hand-writing” is one of the most c____59____ art forms we have and should be given the same importance as other art form such as painting, or photography,” Jonathan Skyrme, general manager at BIC UK & Ireland, told the Daily Mail.
The New York Times once explained that a handwritten letter sends a message in a way that o___60___messages can never do. “When you get an email, you can never be sure that you are the o _____61_____ person to have received it -- or even that it was written by the person who sent it,” said the newspaper.
As US author Simon Garfield once wrote, “Emails are a poke(蜻蜓点水), but letters are a loving touch.” So imagine the powerful message you send when you actually write out your thought by hand, buy a stamp, take it to a mailbox, and wait days for your special s___62___to receive it.

作者通过这篇文章向我们介绍了关于青少年是否写信的调查,事实显示如今大多数青少年都没写过信,并比较了电子邮件与写信的各自的优点。
【56题详解】
句意:你还记得你上一次写信是什么时候吗?如果答案是:“不是最近”,没关系,并不是只有你。
空格前are是系动词,后接形容词,作表语。根据下文“A survey of 1,000 teenagers around the world done by a French company BIC found that a third of today’s teenagers had never written a letter”,通过调查可知,大部分的青少年都从未写过一封信,根据提示字母,可推测空格处要表述你并不孤单。故答案为alone。
【57题详解】
句意:事实上,58%的青少年抱怨手写信太慢了,17%的青少年认为它已经过时了。
根据句子结构,that引导的是一个宾语从句,空格处是谓语动词,从句中was是一般过去时,所以主句的谓语动词也用一般过去时。根据句意,空格后表述的内容是手写信的不好一面,结合空格处所给的字母,用动词complainted表示抱怨。故答案为complainted.
【58题详解】
句意:这些结果让人们担心,手写艺术可能有一天将会消失。
根据句子结构为一个宾语从句,主语谓语动词cause,后面接名词。根据“the art of handwriting may one day die out”阐述了作者的担忧,所以空格用worry表示担忧,是可数名词,空格前没有不定冠词修饰,所以要用名词复数形式。故答案为worries。
【59题详解】
句意:手写是最有创造力的艺术之一,应该跟其他类似喷绘,摄影等艺术给予同样的重视程度。
最高级的固定用法one+of+the+形容词最高级+名词复数,表示最…之一。空格处的形容词是修饰art,结合语境,和空格处所给的首字母,可推测是最有创造力艺术形式之一。故答案为creative。
【60题详解】
句意:纽约时报曾经抱怨,一个手写信在某种程度上传递了一种信息,这是在线消息永远做不到的。
空格处后messages是可数名词复数,前用形容词修饰。根据下文When you get an email,email属于在线的消息,根据首字母提示,空格处用online。故答案为online。
【61题详解】
句意:当你收到一封邮件时,你永远不会确定你是唯一一个收到它的人,甚至你也不知道是谁写的。
空格处后person是可数名词,前用形容词修饰。空格处的句子是在描述在线消息的弊端,结合句意,当你收到邮件时,是无法确定你是唯一的收件人,结合首字母提示,空格处填only。故答案为only。
【62题详解】
句意:所以,想象一下你所传递的强大信息,当你用手写出你内心的感受,买一张邮票,把它放到邮箱里,等待着特别的人收到它。
空格前special是形容词,所以空格处是名词。根据前文“Emails are a poke, but letters are a loving touch”,可知,我们是把信寄给对我们特别的人。结合首字母,填写stranger。故答案为stranger。

Taking Action
At Seven Oaks Middle School, Daniela Carrera was searching for a club. There was a dance club, a choir, an exercise club, and an action club that found creative ways to raise money for other people. Daniela was thinking about j____81____ the dance club because dancing was her favourite.
Then Daniela’s friend Ciara told her about the action club’s new p____82____. At first, Daniela was puzzled. “Why would people in a nursing home want a video-game console (平台)?” she asked Ciara.
“This would be a s____83____ kind of console that plays fitness games. The games help people who need to exercise but weren’t able to get to a gym or exercise a____84____ out of their rooms. Besides, everybody loves video games, don’t they?” Ciara replied.
“Not my great–grandmother,” Daniela said, laughing. But she agreed to go to the club meeting the next day.
At the meeting, Mr. Washington, the club’s manager, d____85____ to Daniela and the others how fitness video games helped encourage people to move. He explained how the consoles could help distract (使分心) people who s____86____ from severe pains. That was all Daniela needed to hear.

I don’t believe it! It’s 11p.m. and I’m still sitting here writing this article for the school magazine !I’ve had two weeks to write it and my teacher wants it tomorrow . She’s always c____56____ that I leave things to the last minute. Maybe she’s right. A month ago, I made up my mind to be more efficient this year and not to leave thing to the last minute. But I’ve failed. I’ve also been trying to get fitter for four weeks now. I’ve started going to the gym. I’ve taken up karate lessons and I’ve changed my diet. I’ve even been going to bed earlier. But I’m not feeling any fitter. I felt just a little u____57____. I miss my bad habits. Why is leading a better life so hard?
I’ve just read an article on a website and I’ve found out that it isn’t my fault! In fact, it isn’t anyone’s fault! It’s our brains. They’re programmed, therefore, it is difficult to break bad habits. There’s nothing we can do . Scientists have done experiments that show we use one part of our brain when we think about o____58____and another when we think about other people. However, when we think about the ‘future us’, we use the part of the brain that we usually use to think about other people. In other words, the brain sees the ‘future you’ as a different person to your ‘present you ’. And that’s why we don’t always find it easy to make sensible d____59____ in the future when we face difficulties.
But that’s not all. Scientists have also found out that it takes around ten weeks to form a good habit. For example , if I want to keep fit, it’s going to take me ten weeks to go to the gym and then it will become an automatic part of my life. That’s because ten weeks is the amount of time the brain needs to change and a____60____new ways of behavior as a part of everyday life. The good news is that once you make it to ten weeks, everything becomes much easier. The bad news is that ten weeks is a really long time, so it’s easy to give up on (打消)your good plan s_____61_____
So there you are. Maybe we want to change our ways and become better people but our brains won’t let us . or is this just an e____62____? Look! I’ve finished my article on time. Anything is possible!
【答案】56. complaining
57. unhappier

【解析】
这是一篇议论文,作者分析了习惯为什么不容易被改变。
【56题详解】
句意:她总是抱怨我把事情留到最后一刻。
根据关键词“always”以及句子“I leave things to the last minute”把事情留到最后一刻。可知总是在埋怨我的做法。故此空格需要填写complain,但是在句子中已有be动词的形式,故答案为complaining。
【57题详解】
句意:我只是感觉有点不开心。
根据“I’ve also been trying to get fitter for four weeks now. I’ve started going to the gym. I’ve taken up karate lessons and I’ve changed my diet. I’ve even been going to bed earlier. But I’m not feeling any fitter.” 四周以来,我一直在努力变得更健康。我已经开始去健身房了。我上了空手道课,改变了饮食。我甚至更早就睡觉了,但是我感觉没有什么改变。可知自己做了那么多而没有变化而不高兴。根据“But I’m not feeling any fitter”此句用到了比较级,故答案为unhappier。
【58题详解】
句意:当我们想到自己时,我们使用大脑的一部分,当我们想到别人时,我们使用另一部分。
根据“However, when we think about the ‘future us’, we use the part of the brain that we usually use to think about other people.” 然而,当我们想到“未来的我们”时,我们使用大脑中通常用来思考别人的部分。根据句子中的“other people”,可推测出与空格中的词是对应词,应填“ourselves”。故答案为ourselves。
【59题详解】
句意:这就是为什么当我们面临困难时,我们并不总是容易做出明智的决定的原因。
根据“the brain sees the ‘future you’ as a different person to your ‘present you ’.” 大脑将“未来的你”视为与“现在的你”不同的人。可推测,就因为这样,我们并不总是容易做出明智的决定(make sensitive decision)的原因 。故答案为decisions。
【60题详解】
句意:那是因为,作为日常生活当中的一部分,十周是一定量的时间,需要我们的大脑改变和接受新行为的方式。
根据“Scientists have also found out that it takes around ten weeks to form a good habit.” 科学家还发现,形成一个好习惯需要大约十周的时间。可推测:十周的时间是个考验,是我们改变和接受新行为的时间。故答案为accept。
【61题详解】
句意:很快打消你的好计划是很容易的。
根据“The bad news is that ten weeks is a really long time.”坏消息是,十周真的很长。可推测到因为时间长,不容易坚持,我们的好计划很快(soon)就被打消。故答案为soon。
【62题详解】
句意:也许我们想改变我们的方式,成为更好的人,但是我们的大脑不让我们这样做。或者说,这只是一个借口吗?根据课文可知,不是大脑,而是我们的习惯阻止我们改变,说是大脑的原因,只是个借口。故答案为excuse。

We might love to tell others about our unusual experiences—that time we climbed Mount Everest, tasted some rare food or ran into a famous person on the street. But new research suggests:that if we s___56___ these unusual experiences with others, it may bring something uncomfortable.
"Unusual experiences are pleasant in the moment but can cause social t___57___ in the long run, "says psychological scientist Gus Cooney of Harvard University. "Some people mistakenly thought that having an unusual experience would make them the star. But they were wrong, because to be unusual is to be different from other people, and social interaction is based on something similar. "
"We all h___58___ to have experiences that are fine and rare, and when we get what we want, we are always eager to tell our friends. But I've noticed that conversations always seem to develop well on more ordinary topics." Cooney explains. " This made me wonder if unusual experiences were r___59___ as lovely as we had thought. "
To find out, Cooney and his colleagues had 68 people come to the lab in groups of f___60___. In each group, one person was asked to watch a popular video of a street magician performing for a crowd, while the other three people were asked to watch an ordinary animated video. After watching the videos, the people sat around a table and had a five-minute free conversation.
After the group discussion, the people who watched the magician's performance felt w___61___ than those who watched the animated video, because they felt they were not included during the discussion.
This finding suggests that we ought to give more thought in choosing what to talk about with others. If an experience turns you into someone who has n___62___ in common with others, then no matter how good it is, it won't make you comfortable in the long run.
【答案】56. share
57. trouble(s)
58. hope 59. really

62. nothing

【61题详解】

根据than用比较级,根据because they felt they were not included during the discussion.可知,因为他们觉得自己没有被包括在讨论中,因此是更糟糕的,故填worse。

很多人都喜欢音乐,但是你听说过“音乐盲”吗?他们指的是天生就没有识别、重复或记忆音符的能力的人。短文给我们介绍了关于“乐盲”的一些事实。
【56题详解】
句意:这些音乐盲生来就没有识别、重复或记忆音符的能力。
根据下文 “Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two songs.”乐盲不能分辨两首歌曲之间的不同。结合首字母可知,这里考查的应是recognize,是一个动词,意为“分辨,辨认出”。the ability to do sth.“……的能力”,是固定句型,这里应填动词原形。故答案为recognize。
【57题详解】
句意:结果,音乐听起来就像噪音。
根据下句话 “Many amusics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other.”很多乐盲把音乐声音比喻成金属互相碰撞的声音,这是很难听、刺耳的声音,即噪音。故这里考查的是noise,是一个名词。故答案为noise。
【58题详解】
句意:当他们去餐馆或购物中心时,许多音乐盲可能会感到不舒服。
根据下句话 “Sometimes they even feel painful.”有时候他们甚至感到痛苦,再结合首字母可知,这里应考查comfortable,意为“舒服的”,是一个形容词。故答案为comfortable。
【59题详解】
句意:“我过去很讨厌聚会,”玛格丽特说,她今年70岁,上个月才发现自己是个乐盲。
根据句中 “…who only discovered that she was an amusic last month.”可知,玛格丽特是一个乐盲,再由上文对乐盲的解释可知,他们不喜欢音乐,故这里考查hate,意为“讨厌”,是一个动词。故答案为hate。
【60题详解】
句意:通过研究像玛格丽特这样的人,科学家们终于知道如何找到这种不寻常的情况。
根据句意可知,通过研究想玛格丽特这样的人,科学家最终发现了“乐盲”。故这里考查的是finally,意为“最后,最终”,是一个副词。故答案为finally。
【61题详解】
句意:多年来,玛格丽特对音乐的问题感到很尴尬。
根据文意和单词的首字母可知,这里考查的是problem,意为“问题”,对于“乐盲”来说,他们欣赏不了音乐,所以这是一个“问题”。故答案为problem。
【62题详解】
句意:这让她更容易解释:“当人们邀请我去听音乐会时,我只会说‘不,谢谢,我是音乐盲’,”玛格丽特说。
根据句意可知,了解了自己是一个乐盲,这样玛格丽特可以比以前更容易地跟朋友们解释自己不喜欢音乐的事情了。因此这里应用easy的比较级形式easier,表示“更容易的”。故答案为easier。
【点睛】这是一篇说明文,短文给我们介绍了什么是“乐盲。”文章叙述清晰,用实际的例子进行解释,使文章更容易理解。题型是短文填空,要求根据文意和单词的首字母填写适当的单词,考查单词在具体语境中的使用。做题时,应根据文意和首字母线索填写适当单词,并根据该单词在句中的作用以及句中使用的句型,填写单词的适当形式。例如第1小题,根据下文 “Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two songs.”乐盲不能分辨两首歌曲之间的不同。结合首字母可知,这里考查的应是recognize,是一个动词,意为“分辨,辨认出”。句中使用了句型the ability to do sth.“……的能力”,这里应填动词原形。故答案为recognize。再如第7小题,结合句意可知,了解了自己是一个乐盲,这样玛格丽特可以比以前更容易地跟朋友们解释自己不喜欢音乐的事情了。因此这里应用easy的比较级形式easier,表示“更容易的”。

The Best Language for Learning Math
What is the best language for learning math? Hint (提示):You are not reading it.
Chinese, Japanese and Korean all have simpler number words. They express math concepts (概念)more c___81____ than English. The language gap has drawn lots of attention. Several recent studies have l___82____ weaker math abilities in English-speaking children to English number words.
Chinese, for example, has just ten basic number words. English, however, has more than two dozen (—打). The trouble starts at “e___83____.” English has a word for that number. Chinese, Japanese and Korean have words that can be translated as “ten-one” — spoken with the “Hen” first. That makes it easier for children to understand the place value. Students can easily see that the number system is based on units of 10.
English number words over 10 don't make the place value clear. Words for numbers 13 to 19 change the order of the ones (个位) and tens. Children are more 1___84____ to confuse 17 with 71. therefore, children working with English number words have a harder time doing complex (复杂) calculations. They make more m___85____.
It also feels more natural for Chinese speakers than for English speakers to use the “make-a-ten” method. When they a___86____ two numbers, Chinese students often break down the numbers into parts and regroup them into tens and ones. For example, 9 plus 5 becomes 9 plus 1 plus 4. This method greatly helps students work out math problems. Many teachers in America are teaching their students the “make-a-ten” method. However, they are having a hard time because of the confusing English number words.
Now, you should feel 1___87____ that you are learning math in China. Thanks to your mother language, all the math problems have become less difficult and less confusing.
C) 81. clearly 82. linked 83. eleven 84. likely 85. mistakes 86. add 87. lucky

An inborn skill

The police are starting to use “super - recognisers” to spot criminal faces in videos of crowds. They look for people with a specific build and facial features like beards and moustaches but they can even recognise quite o___62___people, with no noticeable features at all. As well as surprising our holidaymaker in Spain six years later, this ability can be used for a very practical purpose indeed.

Afterwards, you feel powerless and have the f___56___ of guilt and trouble. Once again, you end up doing nothing. Sound familiar?

Most likely, failure of the ability to listen to o___60___ is the main reason. The scientific name of this ability is self-regulation.
Self-regulation is the ability to actively control your emotions. The more developed this ability is, the more often you will do what you tell yourself to do. Good news is it is possible to have self-regulation by t___61___. You need to begin by setting the bar as low as possible.
