A

As a young adult, Noah Webster was a teacher. At that time, the colonies were fighting for independence from Britain, yet the books that American children used in school all came from Britain. The books were all about British people and British places. Webster wanted books that would mean more to American children. So he wrote three books that used American examples—a grammar book, a spelling book, and a reader. These books were very popular, and millions of them were sold.

Webster was interested in changing the spellings of words. He wanted words to be spelled the way they were pronounced. For example, he thought the word “head” should be spelled “hed”, and the word “laugh” should be spelled “laf”. People liked Webster’s suggestions.

However, few words were actually changed. One group of words that were changed were words in which an unpronounced “u” followed an “o”. That is why Americans write “color” and “labor”, while the British write “colour” and “labour”.

With the money he made from his books, Webster was able to write. It was the first American English dictionary, published in 1828. Webster’s dictionary had over 70,000 words and gave the meaning and origin of each. To this day, Webster’s work is the example that most dictionaries of American English follow.

“Save the whales!”That’s what the picture on Jake Smith’s bedroom wall said. Jake liked having a picture that said something important: that showed he cared. He just never expected to get a chance to save a real whale, one right in his own neighborhood.

It was a Saturday morning when the newspaper first reported the whales to be coming. A group of the animals were swimming close to the beach in Jake’s hometown. All the local people rushed out to the beach to see them. They were expecting a beautiful show, better than a movie.

Then one whale swam in the direction, directly towards land. It came in with the waves, and when the waves receded, its huge body rested on the sand. Suddenly, Jake and his family and all the others were no longer sightseers. They had to become rescuers. A few people ran towards the animal. They pushed and tried to force the whale back into the water, but it was no use.

An animal rescue service team soon arrived in a truck with heavy lifting machinery, to help move the animal. Jake and his family couldn’t do much on the beach, so they went back to their house and made sandwiches and hot tea for the rescuers. At least, Jake thought, they could help in some way.

Back at the beach, they offered the food to the rescuers and were happy to see that it was needed. It was getting dark. Some people lined up their cars along the beach and shined the headlights on the sand. The rescuers would not give up. After trying many times they were finally able to lift the whale into the water. Everyone cheered when it headed out to the sea. It swam out about a mile and then disappeared for a moment under the sea. Then, in what looked like a jump of joy, it rose high above the water—a thank-you to those who had worked so hard to save his life.

A.He worked as an animal rescuer.

C.He lived near the ocean.

A.To swim with the whales.

B.To see the whales swimming.

C.To help rescue the whales.

D.To watch a movie about whales.

7.The underlined word “receded” in Paragraph 3 means 　　　　. 

A.went back out B.didn’t move

C.washed over D.got up

8.How did Jake and his family help save the whale?

A.By calling the rescue service team.

B.By asking their neighbours for help.

C.By controlling the people on the beach.

D.By giving the rescuers food and drink.

答案

一.1.stage　2.wisdom 　3.honour　4.gained  5.potential　6.resources

二.1.effective　考查形容词。句意:学校采取了许多有效措施来避免各种各样的病毒在冬天传播。由空后的名词measures可知此处应用形容词来修饰名词。故填形容词effective。

2.was awarded　考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:爱因斯坦因其在物理学方面的工作成果在1921年被授予诺贝尔奖。由空前的主语Einstein可知此处谓语应用第三人称单数形式,又根据时间状语in 1921 确定时态为一般过去时,主语和award之间为被动关系。因此答案为was awarded。

3.recognition/being recognized　考查名词或动名词。句意:她改了名字和外貌,以防被认出来。由空前的动词avoid可知此处用名词或动名词作宾语。用动名词时,应注意使用被动形式,故填recognition或being recognized。

4.eventually　考查副词。句意:她终于完成了第三件事,它也是最困难的一件事。此处应用副词作状语。因此将形容词eventual变为副词eventually。

5.promising　考查形容词。句意:莉莉擅长很多科目,是个有前途的学生。此空前是冠词,空后是一个名词,所以此空应用形容词,故填promising。

6.Despite　考查介词。句意:尽管下大雨,他们还是去上学了。根据空后为名词可知,此处为介词,又根据句意可知此处应填Despite。

7.advanced　考查形容词。句意:只有我们三个人学高级课程。设空处修饰名词course,应用形容词形式,故填advanced。

8.limited　考查形容词。句意:现在我的时间有限,因为我有一个婴儿要照顾。设空处位于系动词is后,作表语,根据句意可知应用形容词,故填limited。

三.1.with which　2.for whom　3.one of which　4.on which　5.all of whom

四.1.with　考查介词。句意:……这是她在团队的帮助下在20世纪70年代发现的。with the help of...为固定短语,意为“在……的帮助下”。故填with。

2.to be awarded　考查不定式。句意:这位女士就是屠呦呦,第一位因为她的工作(成果)赢得诺贝尔奖的中国女科学家。当中心词被序数词修饰时,常用不定式作后置定语,且Chinese female scientist与award之间是被动关系,故填to be awarded。

3.studied　考查动词的时态。句意:屠呦呦在北京大学健康科学中心学习医学。根据上下文可知,此处应用一般过去时。故填studied。

4.whom　考查关系词。句意:后来,她和这个领域的专家学习了两年半中医,她从他们那里获取了关于传统做法的渊博的知识。from 　4　 she gained a deep knowledge about traditional practices是定语从句,修饰先行词experts,由设空处前的介词from可知,此处应用关系代词whom。 

5.was chosen　考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:1969年屠呦呦被选去建立一个小组去研究疟疾的治愈方法,这种疾病每年杀死数百万人。主语Tu Youyou和choose之间是被动关系,所以用被动语态,又根据In 1969确定时态为一般过去时。因此答案为was chosen。

6.millions　句意见上题。设空处前没有数词,故用复数形式。millions of意为“数百万的”。

7.an　考查冠词。句意:不过屠呦呦有一个想法,中草药可能藏着(治愈疟疾的)秘密。idea是可数名词,且以元音音素开头,空后的idea为单数形式,表示泛指,所以应填冠词an。that Chinese herbs might hold the secret是同位语从句,解释说明idea的内容。

8.connected　考查过去分词。句意:她研究了数百种与治愈疟疾相关的传统药方。此句已经有谓语researched,此处作后置定语修饰recipes,又因为recipes与connect之间是被动关系,因此用过去分词connected。

10.most effective　考查形容词最高级。句意:他们发现的药物目前已经成为世界上治愈疟疾的最有效的药物。空后为名词,所以此处用形容词作定语,结合句中的表示范围的短语in the world和句意可知此处应用形容词最高级形式,故填most effective。
