The email request came into Ekiben restaurant in Balimore late on a Thursday afternoon in March: tempura braccol (天妇罗西兰花) topped with fresh herbs and diced onion. The man who sent the email didn't actually want the food itself. He was writing for his mother-in-law, who liked the dish. He went on to explain that she was now in the final stages of lung cancer (肺癌) at her home in Vermont and that he was hoping to get the recipe (食谱) to make it for her there.
Steve Chu, one of the restaurant's co-owners, read the email and quickly replied with a suggestion. "Thanks for asking for help," he wrote. "We'd like to meet you in Vermont and make it fresh for you."
Brandon Jones, the son-in-law, was stunned. "I emailed back, saying, 'You do know that this is Vermont we're talking about, right?'" says Brandon. "But Steve said, No problem. You tell us the date, time, and location and we'll be there.'"
For the past six years, every time Brandon's mother-in-law visited Baltimore, the first place she wanted to go was Ekiben so she could order that one dish.
Chu, with his team, drove on Saturday to the apartment where Brandon's mother-in-law lived. After boxing everything up, they knocked on their customer's door.
"As soon as she opened the door, she recognized the smell," Brandon says. "It smelled amazing." Rina Jones, Brandon's wife, says her mother also recognized Chu and his co-workers. "My mom kept saying 'I don't understand. You drove all the way up here to cook for me?' She was so happy and touched. She couldn't believe it."
The Joneses invited Chu and his team to join them for dinner, but they needed to get back to Baltimore. "It was an honor to help make the families wishes come true," Chu says. "This is about her, not us. There was a lot of good energy in doing this."

12 sailing (航行) teams from around the world competed in the first-ever Ocean Race Europe this year. The race set off from Lorient, France, on May 29.Teams of six to 10 people spent 22 days sailing the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea to the finish line, in Genoa, Italy. That's where the race ended, on June 19.
Annie Lush is a member of Offshore Team Germany. "It took a while to realize that we had won!" she told TIME for Kids. This competition marks the first time that Germany has won an Ocean Race in 18 years. "It's a big step for Germany," Lush says. "And it's great to see the excitement the race has brought."
The Ocean Race Europe develops from the Ocean Race which goes around the world. The first Ocean Race was held in 1973.Since then, it has taken place every three or four years.
Ocean Race Europe presents plenty of challenges. Teams are on their boats for three straight weeks. "When you're on board, all you do is race, eat, and sleep," says Richard Brisius, chairman of the Ocean Race. "There is no Internet connection and there are no movies." There isn't even a fridge inside the boat. Things like fridges weigh a boat down, and a heavier boat won't sail as fast as a lighter one.
The Ocean Race Europe has a larger purpose. It aims to raise awareness about ocean sustainability (可持续性). During the race, buoys (浮标) collect scientific data (数据) from the salty waters. The data is shared with scientists. It shows how the ocean is affected by climate (气候) change. Scientists use the data to further understand the world's changing environment and seas. "The ocean doesn't have a voice of its own," Brisius says. "So it's our job to speak up for it."
8. What do we know about this year's Ocean Race Europe?
A. It started in Italy.
B. It lasted over a month.
C. It attracted more than ten teams.
D. It only included one class of speedy sailboat.
9. How did Annie Lush feel after finishing the race?
A. It was surprising her team dealt with all the difficulties.
B. It was a great honor to fight with the German team.
C. It was easy for her team to achieve the goal.
D. It was really exciting to win the race.
10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The history of Ocean Race Europe.
B. The benefits of Ocean Race Europe.
C. The influence of Ocean Race Europe.
D. The challenges of Ocean Race Europe.
11. What is the greater purpose of Ocean Race Europe?

做完形填空首先要通读全文，了解大意。一篇完形填空的文章有许多空格，所以，必须先通读一至两遍，才能大概了解文章的内容。千万不要看一句，做一句。其次要逐句分析，前后一致。答案全部填完后，再通读一遍文章，检查是否通顺流畅，用词得当，意思正确。
36.【答案】【小题1】to explain
【小题2】are
【小题3】where
【小题4】significant
【小题5】description
【小题6】to
【小题7】coming
【小题8】elements
【小题9】takes
【小题10】the
【解析】（1）to explain.考查不定式。句意：我们需要热爱文学，并努力去解释它。make an effort to do sth."努力做某事"是固定搭配，故填to explain。
（2）are.考查主谓一致。句意：每一本书的背后都是一个人，人的背后是种族，而种族的背后是自然和社会环境。此处陈述客观事实，使用一般现在时，这里是完全倒装句，主语是the natural and social environments,故be动词用are,故填are。
（3）where.考查定语从句。句意：我们现在已经到了希望欣赏和理解文学的地步。空处引导定语从句修饰先行词a point,并在定语从句中作地点状语，故填where。
（4）significant.考查形容词。句意：让我们看看它的一些重要特性。分析句子可知此处要填形容词做定语，修饰名词qualities,significant是形容词"重要的"，故填significant。
（5）description.考查不可数名词。句意：文学的首要品质是对真善美的描写。由限定词its可知，此处应填名词。故填description。
（6）to.考查介词。句意：文学的第二个特点是它能唤起我们的情感和想象。appeal后常跟介词to,表示"对……的吸引力/启发"，此处表示对我们情感和想象力的启发。故填to。
（7）coming.考查现在分词。句意：文学的第三个特质，来自于另外两个特质，是它的永恒性。分析句子结构可知，空处应填非谓语动词，come和其逻辑主语The third quality of literature之间是主谓关系，故用现在分词coming。故填coming。
（8）elements.考查可数名词复数。句意：要做到这一点，它应该包含两个要素：普遍的兴趣和个人风格。element是可数名词，根据前面的two可知，这里应用名词的复数形式，故填elements。
（9）takes.考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意：它还带有个人风格。文章的主体时态是一般现在时，本句的主语是第三人称单数It,故用takes。
（10）the.考查冠词。句意：总之，文学是以真和美的形式表达生命，是人类思想感情的书面记录，是人类灵魂的历史。这里名词expression后用of结构修饰，表示特指，且此处与后面的the written record of man's thoughts and feelings和the history of the human soul并列作表语，故用定冠词the。故填the。
本文是议论文，介绍了文学的品质。
语法填空题是考查学生的语言运用能力。解题时，要在理解文章的基础上，灵活运用语法知识，如词性，时态，名词单复数，连接词，代词，冠词等判断空白处应填写的内容。答完后，还要通读全文，核对所填单词形式是否正确，是否符合语境。

The email request came into Ekiben restaurant in Balimore late on a Thursday afternoon in March: tempura braccol (天妇罗西兰花) topped with fresh herbs and diced onion. The man who sent the email didn't actually want the food itself. He was writing for his mother-in-law, who liked the dish. He went on to explain that she was now in the final stages of lung cancer (肺癌) at her home in Vermont and that he was hoping to get the recipe (食谱) to make it for her there.
Steve Chu, one of the restaurant's co-owners, read the email and quickly replied with a suggestion. "Thanks for asking for help," he wrote. "We'd like to meet you in Vermont and make it fresh for you."
Brandon Jones, the son-in-law, was stunned. "I emailed back, saying, 'You do know that this is Vermont we're talking about, right?'" says Brandon. "But Steve said, No problem. You tell us the date, time, and location and we'll be there.'"

"My mom kept saying 'I don't understand. You drove all the way up here to cook for me?' She was so happy and touched. She couldn't believe it."
The Joneses invited Chu and his team to join them for dinner, but they needed to get back to Baltimore. "It was an honor to help make the families wishes come true," Chu says. "This is about her, not us. There was a lot of good energy in doing this."

12 sailing (航行) teams from around the world competed in the first-ever Ocean Race Europe this year. The race set off from Lorient, France, on May 29.Teams of six to 10 people spent 22 days sailing the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea to the finish line, in Genoa, Italy. That's where the race ended, on June 19.
Annie Lush is a member of Offshore Team Germany. "It took a while to realize that we had won!" she told TIME for Kids. This competition marks the first time that Germany has won an Ocean Race in 18 years. "It's a big step for Germany," Lush says. "And it's great to see the excitement the race has brought."
The Ocean Race Europe develops from the Ocean Race which goes around the world. The first Ocean Race was held in 1973.Since then, it has taken place every three or four years.
Ocean Race Europe presents plenty of challenges. Teams are on their boats for three straight weeks. "When you're on board, all you do is race, eat, and sleep," says Richard Brisius, chairman of the Ocean Race. "There is no Internet connection and there are no movies." There isn't even a fridge inside the boat. Things like fridges weigh a boat down, and a heavier boat won't sail as fast as a lighter one.
The Ocean Race Europe has a larger purpose. It aims to raise awareness about ocean sustainability (可持续性). During the race, buoys (浮标) collect scientific data (数据) from the salty waters. The data is shared with scientists. It shows how the ocean is affected by climate (气候) change. Scientists use the data to further understand the world's changing environment and seas. "The ocean doesn't have a voice of its own," Brisius says. "So it's our job to speak up for it."
8. What do we know about this year's Ocean Race Europe?
A. It started in Italy.
B. It lasted over a month.
C. It attracted more than ten teams.
D. It only included one class of speedy sailboat.
9. How did Annie Lush feel after finishing the race?
A. It was surprising her team dealt with all the difficulties.
B. It was a great honor to fight with the German team.
C. It was easy for her team to achieve the goal.
D. It was really exciting to win the race.
10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The history of Ocean Race Europe.
B. The benefits of Ocean Race Europe.
C. The influence of Ocean Race Europe.
D. The challenges of Ocean Race Europe.
11. What is the greater purpose of Ocean Race Europe?
A. To call on people to protect the ocean.
B. To make teenagers' voices heard.
C. To do research on sea animals.
D. To draw scientists' attention.

It gives some the courage to deal with difficulties. For others, it supports their mental(精神的) health and happiness. As attention turns to rebuilding the country, music will continue to help people engage(与……建立密切关系) with society, friends and work again. "

Forty years after Dad's first Thanksgiving in Toronto,he sat at the table and asked if I thought he'd provided well for his family.I answered yes.His eyes(34).Mine did,too.We sat together(35)，letting love and thankfulness fill the space between us.

（2）C.细节理解题。根据后文It can be organised,such as work for a charity or helping your neighbour with their food shopping.Many people volunteer to help the environment by picking up litter or planting trees.（它可以是有组织的，比如为慈善机构工作，或者帮助你的邻居购买食物。许多人自愿捡拾垃圾或种树来保护环境。）可知这是写的志愿服务的模式，所以C选项：Volunteering comes in all shapes and sizes.（志愿服务有各种形式和规模。）符合语境，故选C。
（3）F.推理判断题。根据后文For example,if you love nature,why not volunteer for a wildlife charity？（例如，如果你热爱大自然，为什么不去野生动物慈善机构做志愿者呢？）可知应该是指兴趣和志愿工作的结合，所以F选项：This is especially true if you match volunteering to your interests.（如果你将志愿工作与你的兴趣相匹配，这一点尤其正确。）应该是后文例子的论点，故选F。
（4）E.推理判断题。根据后文It has been shown to reduce feelings of anxiety（焦虑）because many people find that they are distracted（分心）from their worries by concentrating on the needs of others（它已经被证明可以减少焦虑感（焦虑）因为很多人发现自己分心了，通过关注他人的需求来摆脱他们的担忧。）可知是做志愿者给人心里健康的一个例子，所以E选项：Volunteering can make you happier over time.（志愿服务可以让你随着时间的推移变得更快乐。）符合语境，故选E。
（5）G.逻辑关系题。根据前文.Volunteering also provides an opportunity for you to meet and connect with people,"which is good news for our mental health," says Jolie Goodman of the Mental Health Foundation.（志愿服务也为你提供了一个与人见面和联系的机会，"这对我们的心理健康来说是个好消息，"心理健康基金会的Jolie Goodman说。）可知前文是指做志愿者给人的心里健康的好处，后文会提到身体健康，符合逻辑。所以G选项：Studies have shown that volunteering can improve your physical health,too.（研究表明，志愿工作也可以改善你的身体健康。）符合语境，故选G。
本文主要向读者介绍了做志愿者，如何去做和做志愿者带来的益处。
"七选五"这样的题型，主要目的在于考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。解题时最主要的两个步骤就是1．理清文章的逻辑和结构，2．在所给的原文中找出关键词或者说是线索词。文章的整体思路能帮助你在答案中筛选出符合逻辑的选项，关键词则能帮助你确定更多的细节，排除相近的选项。得出正确的答案。

做完形填空首先要通读全文，了解大意。一篇完形填空的文章有许多空格，所以，必须先通读一至两遍，才能大概了解文章的内容。千万不要看一句，做一句。其次要逐句分析，前后一致。答案全部填完后，再通读一遍文章，检查是否通顺流畅，用词得当，意思正确。
36.【答案】【小题1】to explain
【小题2】are
【小题3】where
【小题4】significant
【小题5】description
【小题6】to
【小题7】coming
【小题8】elements
【小题9】takes
【小题10】the
【解析】（1）to explain.考查不定式。句意：我们需要热爱文学，并努力去解释它。make an effort to do sth."努力做某事"是固定搭配，故填to explain。
（2）are.考查主谓一致。句意：每一本书的背后都是一个人，人的背后是种族，而种族的背后是自然和社会环境。此处陈述客观事实，使用一般现在时，这里是完全倒装句，主语是the natural and social environments,故be动词用are,故填are。
（3）where.考查定语从句。句意：我们现在已经到了希望欣赏和理解文学的地步。空处引导定语从句修饰先行词a point,并在定语从句中作地点状语，故填where。
（4）significant.考查形容词。句意：让我们看看它的一些重要特性。分析句子可知此处要填形容词做定语，修饰名词qualities,significant是形容词"重要的"，故填significant。
（5）description.考查不可数名词。句意：文学的首要品质是对真善美的描写。由限定词its可知，此处应填名词。故填description。
（6）to.考查介词。句意：文学的第二个特点是它能唤起我们的情感和想象。appeal后常跟介词to,表示"对……的吸引力/启发"，此处表示对我们情感和想象力的启发。故填to。
（7）coming.考查现在分词。句意：文学的第三个特质，来自于另外两个特质，是它的永恒性。分析句子结构可知，空处应填非谓语动词，come和其逻辑主语The third quality of literature之间是主谓关系，故用现在分词coming。故填coming。
（8）elements.考查可数名词复数。句意：要做到这一点，它应该包含两个要素：普遍的兴趣和个人风格。element是可数名词，根据前面的two可知，这里应用名词的复数形式，故填elements。
（9）takes.考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意：它还带有个人风格。文章的主体时态是一般现在时，本句的主语是第三人称单数It,故用takes。
（10）the.考查冠词。句意：总之，文学是以真和美的形式表达生命，是人类思想感情的书面记录，是人类灵魂的历史。这里名词expression后用of结构修饰，表示特指，且此处与后面的the written record of man's thoughts and feelings和the history of the human soul并列作表语，故用定冠词the。故填the。
本文是议论文，介绍了文学的品质。
语法填空题是考查学生的语言运用能力。解题时，要在理解文章的基础上，灵活运用语法知识，如词性，时态，名词单复数，连接词，代词，冠词等判断空白处应填写的内容。答完后，还要通读全文，核对所填单词形式是否正确，是否符合语境。

解题方法点拨
（1）品读原文，确定文章线索。每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路，通过精读文章，找到该篇文章的写作线索。如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜（结尾）"。
（2）仔细审题，明确续写要求。一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此类短文续写的具体要求，如词数限制使用几处标有下划线的关键词语。续写段落的首句提示，这样考生可以做到"心中有数"。
（3）回扣原文，揣摩续写思路。根据文章后面的要求，再次快速回读短文，抓住文章的思路结合段首的提示语最终确定续写段落的思路。同时结合文章画线词语提示，确定续写段落的内容。
（4）拟写草稿，修改错词病句。在确定了思路和内容之后。最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中画线的关键词拟写草稿。拟写时，注意句子结构的多样性，语言的丰富性，并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用，使上下文连贯。
