Ⅰ.閱讀理解
Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts.The microorganisms (微生物) from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station,so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week.How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem? It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids.But not just any kids.It is depending on NASA HUNCH high school classrooms,like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport,New York.
HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers.For the past two years,Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity,and they think they’re close to a solution(解決方案).“We don’t give the students any breaks.They have to do it just like NASA engineers,”says Florence Gold,a project manager.
“There are no tests,”Gordon says.“There is no graded homework.There almost are no grades,other than‘Are you working towards your goal?’Basically,it’s ‘I’ve got to produce this product and then,at the end of the year,present it to NASA’.Engineers come and really do an in-person review,and...it’s not a very nice thing at times.It’s a hard business review of your product.”
Gordon says the HUNCH programme has an impact(影響) on college admissions and practical life skills.“These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back.I don’t teach.”And that annoying bacteria? Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem,readying a workable solution to test in space.
1.What do we know about the bacteria in the International Space Station?
A.They are hard to get rid of.
B.They lead to air pollution.
C.They appear in different forms.
D.They damage the instruments.
2.What is the purpose of the HUNCH programme?
A.To strengthen teacher-student relationships.
B.To sharpen students’communication skills.
C.To allow students to experience zero gravity.
D.To link space technology with school education.
3.What do the NASA engineers do for the students in the programme?
A.Check their product.
B.Guide project designs.
C.Adjust work schedules.
D.Grade their homework.
4.What is the best title for the text?
A.NASA:The Home of Astronauts
B.Space:The Final Homework Frontier
C.Nature:An Outdoor Classroom
D.HUNCH:A College Admission Reform
語篇導讀:本文是一篇說明文,介紹了美國一所中學與NASA合作的聯(lián)合科研項目,解決國際空間站中的細菌問題。閱讀本文,有利于培養(yǎng)學生積極探索、努力解決問題的意識。
答案及剖析:
1.A 推理判斷題??疾閷W生根據(jù)文本信息進行推斷歸納的能力。根據(jù)第一段中的“The microorganisms(微生物)...cleaning them up each week.”可知,來自我們身體的微生物在太空站的表面增長得很快,宇航員每周得花很長時間清理它們。由此斷定太空站里的細菌很難清除。故選A。
2.D 細節(jié)理解題??疾閷W生識別和理解文本中具體信息的能力。根據(jù)第二段的第一句“HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers.”可知,HUNCH項目的目的是把學校教育與航天技術聯(lián)系在一起。故選D。
3.A 細節(jié)理解題??疾閷W生識別和理解文本中具體信息的能力。根據(jù)第三段的最后兩句“Engineers come and really do an in-person review...It’s a hard business review of your product.”可知,NASA工程師親自檢查那些高中學生的產(chǎn)品。故選A。
4.B 標題歸納題。考查學生理解和概括主旨要義的能力。本文主要介紹了一個項目:把高中的教室教學與太空的研究聯(lián)系起來,使學生們得到NASA工程師們的指導。因此在選標題時既要有太空,還要有學生,而選項B將其完美地結合了起來。故選B。

文章脈絡
答案及剖析:
1.D 根據(jù)上文的“As a young child,I lacked confidence,mainly because of my foot defect(缺陷).”和下文的“about it by being called penguin”可知,作者因腳有缺陷而被稱為“企鵝”,對作者來說這是一件難過的事情,對此他應是感到很不舒服、不自在(uncomfortable)。
2.B 根據(jù)上文“It made me feel ignored.”及設空處所在句“It was not until I moved to a new place that a(n) 2 happened in my life.”可知,作者在搬去新地方之前感覺自己都是被忽視的,直到作者搬到一個新的地方,才發(fā)生了變化(change)。設空處所在句與上文是轉折關系。?
3.C 根據(jù)上文可知,作者直到搬到一個新的地方,生活才發(fā)生了變化,因為在那里作者可以有新的開始。設空處應是對上文進行解釋說明,構成因果關系。故選because。
4.D 根據(jù)上文“here I could have a fresh start(在這里我可以有新的開始)”可知,此處應是指“我的新(new)生活開始了”。
5.B 根據(jù)設空處所在句“My 4 life started when I met my best friend who was the reason I 5 social loneliness.”以及本段最后一句“I was 8 enough to have one friend to help me survive.”可知,作者遇到一個重要的朋友,讓他開始了新的生活,不再像以前一樣被忽略,活在孤獨中。說明這個朋友應是幫助他從孤獨中活(survived)過來。?
6.A 根據(jù)上文“I met my best friend who was the reason I 5 social loneliness”可知,作者的這位朋友將作者從孤獨中拯救出來,在他需要(need)時成為他的朋友,并幫助他克服社交困難。?
7.D 根據(jù)上文的“Someone who you can trust”以及下文的“when you come to them with a problem”可知,一個你能信任的人,說明他是支持你的,當你有困難去找他,他會給予理解(understand)。
8.A 根據(jù)下文的“to have one friend to help me survive”可知,有一個朋友幫助他挺過來,對于作者來說應是幸運的(lucky)。
9.B 根據(jù)上文“I was 8 enough to have one friend to help me survive.”及下文“I don’t want others to feel 10 and left out”“I started by becoming more easy-going and open.”可知,作者很幸運,得到了朋友的幫助,使他從社交困難中挺了過來,因此改變了自己,說明作者應是意識到(realise)了他不想讓其他人像他那樣也感到孤獨和被忽視,所以才會有下文講到作者開始變得開朗。?
10.D 根據(jù)下文的“and left out”可知,and連接的應是兩個近義詞。此處應是指作者不想其他人也感到孤獨(lonely)和被忽視。
11.C 根據(jù)下文的“to show I was friendly”可知,作者的目的是表示友好,所以作者應是對別人微笑(smiled)。
12.B 根據(jù)上文的“I not only helped people who were left out,but also helped myself”以及下文的“and grew more as a person”可知,作者不僅幫助那些被忽視的人,同時幫助了他自己,說明設空處所指的做法應是可以達到雙向互助的效果,所以設空處應是指結交朋友。make friends為固定搭配,意為“交朋友”。
13.C 根據(jù)上文“grew more as a person”可知,作者得到了成長,而當他最終接受了自己的缺陷時,應是相對之前更成熟了,得到了更大的成長。C項符合語境,與上文對應。
14.A 根據(jù)上文“This experience changed my view on life.”以及文章講到的作者的經(jīng)歷可知,作者由剛開始對自己沒信心,對自己的缺陷感到困惑,社交困難,到后來遇見了幫助他的一個朋友,從而對自己改觀,敢于挑戰(zhàn)自己,與別人交朋友。由此可知,設空處應是講“生活就是給人一個需要克服的挑戰(zhàn)(challenge)”,克服挑戰(zhàn)就是生活本來的樣子。
15.B 根據(jù)上文的“when I finally accepted my name and defect for what they were”以及文章講到的作者的經(jīng)歷可知,作者在克服了生活的挑戰(zhàn)之后,應是意識到每個人最終都要學會接受(accept)生活本來的樣子。

M:Good morning everybody.My topic for today is “Early Money”.I’m going to tell you something about money used in the early days.To be honest,we know little about how early people came to use money,but we do know some of the things that have been used as money.In early times in some European countries,salt was difficult to get.It was used as money.In some parts of Asia,tea was used for money.The American Indians used nuts and other things.Perhaps the most common money of all was an animal of some kind.In some places today,cows are still used as a kind of money.So you see,things highly valued by everybody may serve as money.The Chinese were the first people to use coins as money.

Is it your dream to fly and to work in space? Do you want to be a NASA astronaut? Like many jobs,the first thing would be to fill out the application.A record-breaking 18,300 people filled out applications recently when NASA announced it was filling its Astronaut Candidate programme.But out of those 18,300 applicants,just 8 to 14 will be hired by the US space agency.
It will take 18 months to decide who will be in the new class of astronauts.NASA will review all of the files,which will later go to its current team of astronauts,to make sure they meet the basic qualifications(技能條件).
The first requirement is that the applicants must be US citizens.They need a college degree in engineering,biological science,physical science,computer science,or mathematics.They also need at least three years of experience in a similar field or at least 1,000 hours as a jet pilot.
There are requirements to pass a physical test.And then there are personality qualities tests as well.What kinds of personalities are NASA looking for in an astronaut? NASA’s Selection Manager Anne Roemer said,“I think leadership,
teamwork,the ability to not only work on a team,lead a team,but also follow,be a follower on a team.Communication certainly plays a role,so it’s some pretty common skills that translate into even other professions.”
About 120 applicants will be invited to the Johnson Space Centre in Houston,
Texas,for a first round of interviews,about half of whom will go back for a second round.Once selected,they must complete two years of training in everything about spaceflight—things like learning about all the systems used by NASA,walking in space and Russian language training.Until the US has a working vehicle to be launched into space,NASA still depends on Russia to get astronauts into space.
24.How many applicants will be selected by NASA?
A.About half of them.
B.8 to 14 applicants.
C.About 120 applicants.
D.About 60 applicants.
25. is the necessary personality quality according to NASA’s Selection Manager.?
A.Devotion B.Team spirit
C.Friendliness D.Patience
26.Which is NOT the basic requirement the applicants have to meet?
A.A college degree in required areas.
B.Related experience.
C.Speaking Russian fluently.
D.Passing physical and personality tests.
27.Which may be the best title for the passage?
A.What is Taken to Be an Astronaut?
B.How to Train an Astronaut?
C.NASA Welcomes Its Most Applicants
D.NASA’s Astronaut Candidate Programme
語篇導讀:本文是一篇說明文。文章主要講述了美國國家航空航天局甄選宇航員時,提出宇航員必須具備的條件:他們需要工程學、生物科學、物理科學、計算機科學或數(shù)學的大學學位;他們還需要至少三年在類似領域的經(jīng)驗,以及必備品質(zhì):具有領導力,團隊合作能力以及溝通能力。閱讀本文,可以培養(yǎng)學生樹立高遠志向、提高自身素質(zhì)和能力、為了自己的目標而努力奮斗的意識。
答案及剖析:
24.B 細節(jié)理解題??疾閷W生識別和理解文本中具體信息的能力。根據(jù)第一段中的“But out of those 18,300 applicants,just 8 to 14 will be hired by the US space agency.”可知,但在這18 300名申請者中,只有8至14人將被美國國家航空航天局聘用。故選B。
25.B 細節(jié)理解題。考查學生識別和理解文本中具體信息的能力。根據(jù)第四段中的“I think leadership...follow,be a follower on a team.”可知,他認為團隊精神是申請者必備的性格品質(zhì)。故選B。
26.C 細節(jié)理解題??疾閷W生識別和理解文本中具體信息的能力。根據(jù)第三段中的“They need a college degree in engineering...a similar field or at least 1,000 hours as a jet pilot.”可知,A選項“要求領域的大學學位”和B選項“相關經(jīng)驗”屬于基本要求;根據(jù)第四段中的“There are requirements to pass a physical test.And then there are personality qualities tests as well.”可知,D選項“通過身體和性格測試”也屬于基本要求。只有C選項“說一口流利的俄語”不屬于基本要求。
27.A 主旨大意題。考查學生理解和概括主旨要義的能力。根據(jù)第一段中的“A record-breaking 18,300 people filled out...just 8 to 14 will be hired by the US space agency.”并結合文章內(nèi)容可知,本文主要介紹了美國國家航空航天局甄選宇航員時提出的宇航員必須具備的條件。故A選項“成為宇航員的條件是什么?”符合文章標題。
C
Many people travel to different places in the world by air.Usually it takes a long time,perhaps half a day,for passengers to stay in the plane.So airlines offer passengers food.But it is common that they feel bad about food taste.Do you agree?
To solve this problem,airlines try hard to improve their food.They would like to do so because they don’t want to lose customers.
However,according to scientific research,part of the reason why plane food tastes bad is that at high altitude (海拔) we cannot taste things as well as we do on the ground.Also scientists have found that our noses become very dry even before a plane takes off.As the plane moves up,the change in air pressure reduces one third of the sensibility (感覺) of our taste buds (味蕾).So our taste buds become senseless.The sad fact,however,is that our noses don’t know it.
All of these help explain why food on the plane tastes so bad.They also help explain why airlines choose to offer passengers salty and spicy (辛辣的) food.
Without doing so,the food would be tasteless.
Now there are many researches on this.According to one of them,some volunteers are asked to lie with their feet higher than their heads for weeks.And scientists write down their feelings about food taste.
Though scientists try their best,it is not as easy as they thought.Because they can’t deal with the special environment successfully,such as the change in air pressure,making food taste good is still hard for them.
28.In Paragraph 2,“this problem”means .?
A.passengers stay long in the plane
B.food on the plane tastes bad
C.passengers have no food to eat
D.food on the plane is expensive
29.As the plane moves up,the change in air pressure reduces of the sensibility of our taste buds.?
A.half B.one third
C.one fourth D.one fifth
30.Why do scientists feel it hard to make food on the plane taste good?
A.Because the volunteers don’t know about food taste.
B.Because the volunteers don’t understand them.
C.Because they can’t find enough volunteers.
D.Because they can’t deal with the special environment successfully.
31.What is the best title of the passage?
A.Airplane Travel
B.Taste of Airplane Food
C.Scientific Research on Noses
D.The Change in Air Pressure
語篇導讀:本文是一篇說明文。文章主要講述了很多人經(jīng)常乘飛機旅行,而飛機上的食物不好吃。很多航空公司和科學家們也努力解決這個問題,但很難,因為他們不能成功地應對特殊的環(huán)境,比如氣壓的變化對味覺的影響。閱讀本文,有利于培養(yǎng)學生了解航空知識、努力奮斗、為航天事業(yè)做貢獻的意識。
答案及剖析:
28.B 詞義猜測題??疾閷W生在具體語境中推測詞匯意義的能力。分析可知,problem之前有限定詞this,this一般指代前文提及的內(nèi)容,由此可推知“this problem”應是指文章第一段中“But it is common that they feel bad about food taste.”提及的飛機上的食物味道不好這一問題。故選B。
29.B 細節(jié)理解題??疾閷W生識別和理解文本中具體信息的能力。根據(jù)文章第三段中的“As the plane moves up,the change in air pressure reduces one third of the sensibility
(感覺) of our taste buds(味蕾).”可知,隨著飛機的上升,氣壓的變化會使味蕾的敏感度降低三分之一。故選B。
30.D 細節(jié)理解題。考查學生識別和理解文本中具體信息的能力。根據(jù)文章最后一段中的“Because they can’t deal with...making food taste good is still hard for them.”可知,科學家們覺得很難把飛機上的食物做得好吃,是因為他們無法成功應對飛機飛行中的特殊環(huán)境。故選D。
31.B 主旨大意題??疾閷W生理解和概括文章主旨要義的能力。通過閱讀文章可知,文章第一段中的“So airlines offer passengers food.But it is common that they feel bad about food taste.”提出了本文的話題“飛機餐的味道不好”,并以此話題為中心,在后文闡述了飛機餐不好吃的原因以及研究人員為此而做的努力。B項“Taste of Airplane Food”符合主題,可作為最佳標題。故選B。
D
With the help of the car manufacturer (汽車制造商) Hyundai,a 13-year-old girl was able to send a message to space,where her dad works on the International Space Station (ISS).
“He gets to live and work in space and he is doing lots of experiments up there.He has to stay there for long periods of time...I miss him when he is gone,”Stephanie,who is from Houston,Texas,said in a video.“I think if we could write a really big message he would be able to see it from space.”
Hyundai took her wish to heart and decided to take on the challenge.Using
Nevada’s Delamar Dry Lake as a canvas (畫布),11 drivers drove Hyundai cars,spelling out “Steph?s you”across 2.14 square miles of desert.A promotional video,which Hyundai made to record the process,caught her father’s response and showed the picture he took of her message from the ISS.
“I am happy that he could see it and knows that we are thinking about him back home,”Stephanie said.“He has seen so many things up there,but I hope that this message was the most special.”
There are many misunderstandings about what can and cannot be seen from space.
Contrary to popular belief,the Great Wall of China cannot be seen from space,but many seemingly less important things can be seen.
“A farmer from Louisiana could be burning wastes in his backyard,and it would make a big smoke trail that astronauts could see it from space,”said Mike Gentry,a photo researcher for NASA’s human-tended vehicles.And with a special camera,they can see the Earth in great detail and even keep up an eye on their favourite sports teams.
32.What can we know about Stephanie’s father?
A.He likes taking pictures.
B.He spends little time at home.
C.He works in a car company.
D.He often sends messages to his daughter.
33.How did Hyundai help the girl?
A.By offering a free ride.
B.By taking her to a guided tour.
C.By replaying her father’s response.
D.By making a large picture with cars.
34.Which of the following can be seen from space?
A.A moving car.
B.A standing farmer.
C.The Great Wall of China.
D.The smoke of burning rubbish.
35.What is the best title for the text?
A.Send Love to Space
B.A Girl of Great Talent
C.Observe the Earth Far Away
D.A New Way to Explore Space
語篇導讀:本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了汽車制造商Hyundai用自己的方式幫助一位13歲的小女孩向在國際空間站工作的爸爸傳遞愛和思念的故事。閱讀本文,有利于培養(yǎng)學生的親情意識。
答案及剖析:
32.B 細節(jié)理解題。考查學生識別和理解文本中具體信息的能力。根據(jù)第二段中的“He has to stay there for long periods of time...I miss him when he is gone.”可知,Stephanie的父親必須待在空間站,很少待在家。故選B。
33.D 細節(jié)理解題。考查學生識別和理解文本中具體信息的能力。根據(jù)第三段中的“Using Nevada’s Delamar Dry Lake as...across 2.14 square miles of desert.”可知,現(xiàn)代汽車在沙漠上拼出“Steph?s you”的圖案,來幫助小女孩讓她在空間站的父親能夠看到。
故選D。
34.D 細節(jié)理解題??疾閷W生識別和理解文本中具體信息的能力。根據(jù)最后一段中的“A farmer from Louisiana could be burning...that astronauts could see it from space.”可知,宇航員可以在太空中看到一條巨大的煙霧軌跡,可能是農(nóng)民在自家后院焚燒垃圾。
故選D。
35.A 主旨大意題。考查學生理解和概括文章主旨要義的能力。結合全文,本文主要講述了一個女孩因思念在太空站執(zhí)行任務的父親,設法向其表達愛意的故事,A選項“把愛送到太空”最符合主旨大意。故選A。
第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2.5分,滿分12.5分)
閱讀下面短文,從短文后的選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
Five Steps to Better Handwriting
Some kids love handwriting,but others hate it when it’s time to put their pen to paper.Maybe they are worried about their handwriting.Are you one of them?
36. .Here are five steps that really work!?
Get a great grasp
Try this—hold your pencil at the top and try to write your name.Pretty hard? But when you hold your pencil the correct way,writing is much easier.37. .Hold it in place with your thumb,and your index(食指) and middle fingers.?
Let the lines be your guide
Lined paper is your friend!Those lines can help you create letters that are the right size and proportion(均衡).38. .Also be sure to fill up the lined space completely.Those capital letters should be from the bottom line to the top one.?
Slow down
If your writing is hard to read,try slowing down a little.If you rush,it’s hard to control where you stop and start your letters.
Lower the pressure
39. .That makes it harder to make the smooth lines.Try easing up and
don’t hold the pencil too tightly.?
40. ?
Lots of games require you to write or draw pictures.So even though it’s not schoolwork,you’re still using the skills you need to control your pen better.
A.Play games
B.Ask for more advice
C.So “a”should be half the height of a capital “A”
D.You’ve been writing since you were a little kid
E.Some kids press down really hard when they write
F.The good news is that just about everyone can improve their handwriting
G.The best way to hold a pen or pencil is to let it rest next to the base of your thumb
語篇導讀:本文是一篇說明文,主要介紹了提高書寫水平的五種方法。閱讀本文,有利于幫助學生改善書寫。
答案及剖析:
36.F 考查學生理解上下文語義,建立段落內(nèi)語義連貫的能力。根據(jù)空后的“Here are five steps that really work!”可知,下文是介紹練就一手好字的五個方法,F選項“好消息是幾乎每個人都可以提高自己的書法水平”能承接下文,且選項中的“handwriting”和空前內(nèi)容相呼應。
37.G 考查學生對平行信息之間的銜接關系的理解能力。根據(jù)本段的標題Get a great grasp和空前后的內(nèi)容可知,G選項中“hold a pen”和前文的“hold your pencil”相呼應,“thumb”和下文的內(nèi)容相呼應,且本段主要講述的是注意握筆的姿勢,G選項“拿鋼筆或鉛筆的最好方法是讓它停在你的拇指底部旁邊”能承接上下文。
38.C 考查學生理解因果關聯(lián)意義的信息的能力。根據(jù)空前的“Those lines can help you create letters that are the right size and proportion(均衡).”可知,C選項“所以a應該是A的一半高”在語義上是因果關系,且選項中的大寫A和小寫a與前文提到的“the right size and proportion”相呼應。
39.E 考查學生理解平行和遞進語義連貫的具體信息的能力。根據(jù)本段標題Lower the pressure和下文的“That makes it harder to make the smooth lines.”可知,E選項中的“press”和標題相呼應,“hard”和下文的“harder”相呼應,且句意“有些孩子在寫字的時候非常用力”承接下文。
40.A 考查學生理解段落主題句和段內(nèi)銜接關系的能力。根據(jù)篇章結構可知,此處應選擇一個段落標題,再根據(jù)空后的“Lots of games require you to write or draw pictures.”可知,本段主要講的是玩游戲也可以鍛煉寫字技巧,故A選項“玩游戲”能概括本段的標題。

語篇導讀:本文是一篇記敘文。文章通過講述Sara幫助年邁的鄰居割院子里的草,自己也感覺很快樂的經(jīng)歷,鼓勵人們要樂于助人,你在幫助別人的同時,不經(jīng)意間別人也幫助了你。閱讀本文,有利于培養(yǎng)學生樂于助人的意識。
文章脈絡
答案及剖析:
41.C 根據(jù)后文“was unable to take care of her yard in her 70s”可知,他們的鄰居上了年紀(aged)。
42.A 根據(jù)文章第一句中的“promise”,Sara向父親承諾這周要為馬丁太太家的院子割草,可知此處屬于詞匯復現(xiàn),意思是“然而,她仍然不喜歡與父親之間的這個承諾(promise)”。
43.C 根據(jù)“she still disliked...”和“Why didn’t you ask me first?”可知,Sara在抱怨(complained)。
44.A 句意:不,我沒有先問你,但是(but)不管怎樣你都會做那些事的。前后為轉折關系。
45.B 根據(jù)前文可知,這里意思是“你總是樂于(willing)助人”。
46.D 句意:我能做得到的話就試(try)一下。此處父親的意思是要盡力去幫助別人。
47.A 此處父親進一步告訴Sara助人為樂的好處,因此用besides,意為“此外”。
48.D 根據(jù)文章最后一句“It was hard to tell who was helping whom!(很難說是誰在幫誰!)”再結合選項可知,幫助別人的感覺會讓你納悶(wonder)到底是誰在幫誰。
49.C 根據(jù)前文“I don’t know,Dad”可知,Sara并不明白父親的意思,因此Sara對在院子里割草的唯一感受就是累(tired)。
50.A 根據(jù)“She was good at her job”可知不久,她就把馬丁太太的院子收拾得整整齊齊(tidy)了。
51.C 馬丁太太送給(offered)她一大杯橙汁。
52.D 53.B 句意:看到馬丁太太眼里的喜悅(joy),Sara開始明白這個院子對馬丁太太意味著(meant)什么。
54.A 根據(jù)上文中Sara開始明白了這個院子對馬丁太太意味著什么,也就開始理解父親的話,因此再回去工作時,Sara的態(tài)度(attitude)轉變了。
55.C 句意:一種溫暖的感覺開始蔓延(spread)至她全身。

答案及剖析:
56.wider 考查形容詞的比較級。根據(jù)語境及空前的“much”可知,此處要用比較級,指人們?nèi)ヂ糜蔚哪康牡貢訌V泛,故填wider。
57.attractions 考查名詞復數(shù)。attraction意為“旅游勝地”,是可數(shù)名詞,且此處表示的是不止一處的景點,故填attractions。
58.a 考查冠詞。根據(jù)語境可知,此處指“去宇宙空間站成為很多人的一個夢想”,表示泛指,故填a。
59.had won 考查時態(tài)。文中講述的是發(fā)生在過去的事情,且根據(jù)時間狀語the year before可知,該動作發(fā)生在過去的過去,故用過去完成時。
60.Immediately 考查連詞。此處要用連詞連接兩個句子,Immediately在此處作連詞,意為“一……就,即刻”。
61.what 考查賓語從句。空處引導賓語從句,且從句中缺少賓語,故填what。
62.direction 考查名詞。根據(jù)空前的定冠詞“the”可知,空處應用名詞單數(shù)形式。
63.of 考查介詞。consist of意為“由……組成”,是固定搭配。
64.using 考查非謂語動詞。分析句子結構可知,by后應用動詞-ing形式。
65.satisfied 考查形容詞。be satisfied with意為“對……滿意”,是固定用法。

閱讀下面材料,根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段,使之構成一篇完整的短文。
It was the middle of the day with the bright sun,blue sky,green grass,and a soft breeze (微風).It was a great day to play outside and the best day of my life because I got a new ball and a new bike as my sixth birthday presents,and I was visiting my cousin,Kristy,at her house.
“Here I go!”shouted David while kicking my new ball.David lived next door and was older than me.I thought he was a wild child,but he was actually very kind.The ball went flying as if it were going to space.“That was high!”Kristy said in surprise and we went after the ball.We all had a great time.
Later we had supper and the food my aunt made was good.While Kristy was helping do the dishes,David and I ran outside to play.We started taking turns riding my bike.David suggested that we ride it to the forest.And I agreed.David and I got on the bike and David started riding fast.
As we rode through the forest,I felt the wind brushing my face.It felt so great and free.Suddenly the bike hit a fallen branch and we went flying off the bike.Lying on the ground,I felt dizzy (眩暈的).I checked myself for injuries and saw some but they didn’t upset me.
“David!”I shouted out anxiously.
“Hey,”said a voice.I turned my head and it was David,who was standing behind me,holding my broken bike.At the sight of my disabled bike,I was so sad that I couldn’t hold back my tears.It took David some time to calm me down.
注意:
續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應為150左右。

When we realised it was time to walk home,we found ourselves lost.?
Paragraph 2:

3.匯集故事線索,列出寫作要點。
4.優(yōu)化語言,完善續(xù)寫邏輯。
One possible version:
When we realised it was time to walk home,we found ourselves lost.It was getting darker and darker.I felt so scared that tears rolled down my face again.David tried to comfort me.He told me that he once made some marks on the trees in the forest,which might help us find the way home.Therefore,we made efforts to look for the marks but failed.Having walked anxiously for about an hour in the forest,we didn’t find our way out.
It was completely dark when we saw fireworks (煙花) being set off in the distance.We ran excitedly in that direction as fast as possible.Soon we found my aunt’s house,in front of which my cousin Kristy was holding some fireworks and lighting them.Seeing us back safe,Kristy cheerfully hugged us.She told us that when noticing we had been away for long,she was concerned about our safety.She set off fireworks to draw our attention and guide us.It was an unforgettable experience.
Without David’s comfort and Kristy’s fireworks,I would have lost in the forest forever.
