14.(10分)阅读下面短文,根据短文内容判断句子正误。正确的涂"A",错误的涂"B"。
Reading Lu Xun's works has become common memories of Chinese students.From a young age,we start to study his articles such as From Baicao Garden to Sanwei Study and My Old Home.
This year marks the 140 h anniversary(周年纪念)of the great writer's birth.
Born on Sept 25,1881,his real name is Zhou Shuren.He went to Japan to study medicine as his father died of an illness.But seeing the dark sides of Chinese society of the early 20th century,he decided to pick up a pen instead of a scalpel(手术刀).
He spent his whole life telling thoughtful stories,trying to open up the eyes of Chinese people.For example,The Kong Yiji Story criticized(批判)the exam﹣based education system.A Mad Man's Diary pointed out that the old society was a "man﹣eating" one.
So many years has passed.What do young people think of him?That's the question we asked for this month's Young World.
"His life experiences really encouraged me a lot as he changed his dream to save the country,"said Zhao Zhihan,13,from Beijing. "When we make choices,we should consider what they are for."
"Lu Xun's works still have a meaning today,"another man named Mian told us."His thoughts force you to think.Reading an article by him is more meaningful than reading tons by nobodies." Mian explained.
(1)This article not only gives us a general introduction to Lu Xun but also mentions his influences by showing two interviewees' opinions.
(2)Lu Xun has a huge influence on Chinese people because he tried to open up their eyes with thoughtful stories.
(3)The work Kong Yiji pointed out that the old society was a "man﹣eating" one.
(4)Zhao thinks Lu Xun's life experiences encourages him to change dreams as long as he wants to.
(5)Mian thinks reading tons of works by nobodies is as meaningful as reading Lu Xun's works.

When Robert Goddard was 17 years old,he climbed a cherry tree to cut its(1) branches.He looked around and imagined going into space,maybe even to Mars.The year was 1899.
As a child,Goddard loved to read.He often visited the library to borrow books on(2) sciences.He was a sick child and didn't leave high school(3) he was 21.He later became a physics professor at a university.In his free time,he built rockets and took them to a field,but they didn't fly.
In 1920,Goddard wrote an article about rocket travel.When the New York Times saw his article,a reporter wrote that Goddard had(4) knowledge about science than a high school student.
In 1926,Goddard built a ten﹣foot rocket,put it into an open car,and drove to a field on his aunt's nearby farm.The rocket traveled at 60 miles per hour to an altitude(高度)of 41 feet.Then it(5) into the field.The fight lasted 2.5 seconds.The U.S.government didn't show much interest in Goddard's invention.(6) his experiments,Goddard used his own money.

24.(5分)Hey,man!
Good to hear from you again.Your e﹣mail came in just as I was chatting with another friend,who's going through difficulties at work.
You asked me how I mean success.(1) I wish I had better advice.
What is success?My friend,I don't know.When I was a sportswriter,it was having a good relationship with those sports teams.Now it's running a tenth of a mile farther than I did last week.
More than a year ago,I wrote a story and no readers shouted at me about it,which these days is a success.(2) I don't know.
Middle school students ask me for advice every now and then,if you can believe it.Maybe that's success.
(3) In June 2018,my dad visited and made it the whole weekend without falling while sitting on his wheelchair.(4) To another person,though,success might be a senior discount(折扣) on McDonald's coffee,or a night sleeping on a bench without getting wet.
Personal achievements bring community achievements.(5) But all of the achievements may not make you feel successful,right?I am chatting,I know.The point is,maybe success is a smaller thing.Maybe success is having things to be thankful for and you have a thankful mood.
Thank you for writing,old friend.
Mike

25.(5分)It is one of the most famous books in the world;yet it has no story and no interesting characters,no exciting beginning and no satisfying ending.And yet this book keeps being printed and it keeps growing.At its last printing,it was 20 volumes(卷),with nearly 22,000 pages.This book is one of the most famous dictionaries in the English﹣speaking world,the Oxford English Dictionary.
The Oxford English Dictionary or OED for short,began in 1857 as just an idea of a group of people who thought the world needed an English﹣language dictionary to show the history of English words from 1150 CE to the present.It wasn't until the late 1870s,however,when James Murray joined the project that it began to grow.Murray planned for a dictionary of about 6,400 pages in four volumes,completed in 10 years.
James Murray(1837﹣1915)did most of his work in a small metal building called the Scriptorium.That small building,hot in summer and cold in winter,was the place where Murray and his assistants(助手)collected millions of pieces of paper,each one with a word and an example sentence or phrase written on it.Murray and his assistants worked hard,but after five years they had only reached the word ant!
It was not until 1928 that the dictionary was told to the public completed and published:10 volumes with over 400,000 words and phrases.James Murray did not live to see the completion of his life's work,he passed away in 1915,over ten years before OED came out.
As soon as the dictionary was published,however,the editors started to update(更新) it!In1933,the Oxford English dictionary was reprinted in 12 volumes.Between 1972 and 1986,four more volumes were added with new technical and scientific vocabulary and words from other English﹣﹣speaking countries,such as Canada,the USA,Australia,New Zealand,and South Africa.In 1989,the entire(整个的) dictionary was reprinted in 20 volumes!Three years later,all 20 volumes were put onto CD,and the entire dictionary is available online today.
With about 600,000 words and three million quotations(引语)from over 1,000 years of English,the OED not only records where the English language has come from but has also become an important part of the history of English﹣speaking cultures around the world.

Reading Lu Xun's works has become common memories of Chinese students.From a young age,we start to study his articles such as From Baicao Garden to Sanwei Study and My Old Home.
This year marks the 140 h anniversary(周年纪念)of the great writer's birth.
Born on Sept 25,1881,his real name is Zhou Shuren.He went to Japan to study medicine as his father died of an illness.But seeing the dark sides of Chinese society of the early 20th century,he decided to pick up a pen instead of a scalpel(手术刀).
He spent his whole life telling thoughtful stories,trying to open up the eyes of Chinese people.For example,The Kong Yiji Story criticized(批判)the exam﹣based education system.A Mad Man's Diary pointed out that the old society was a "man﹣eating" one.
So many years has passed.What do young people think of him?That's the question we asked for this month's Young World.
"His life experiences really encouraged me a lot as he changed his dream to save the country,"said Zhao Zhihan,13,from Beijing. "When we make choices,we should consider what they are for."
"Lu Xun's works still have a meaning today,"another man named Mian told us."His thoughts force you to think.Reading an article by him is more meaningful than reading tons by nobodies." Mian explained.

When Robert Goddard was 17 years old,he climbed a cherry tree to cut its(1) dead branches.He looked around and imagined going into space,maybe even to Mars.The year was 1899.
As a child,Goddard loved to read.He often visited the library to borrow books on(2) physical sciences.He was a sick child and didn't leave high school(3) until he was 21.He later became a physics professor at a university.In his free time,he built rockets and took them to a field,but they didn't fly.
In 1920,Goddard wrote an article about rocket travel.When the New York Times saw his article,a reporter wrote that Goddard had(4) less knowledge about science than a high school student.
In 1926,Goddard built a ten﹣foot rocket,put it into an open car,and drove to a field on his aunt's nearby farm.The rocket traveled at 60 miles per hour to an altitude(高度)of 41 feet.Then it(5) fell into the field.The fight lasted 2.5 seconds.The U.S.government didn't show much interest in Goddard's invention.(6) To continue his experiments,Goddard used his own money.
Over the years,his rockets grew to 18 feet and flew up to 9,000 feet.(7) Nobody made fun of him after he was successful.In fact,he became(8) known as the father of modern rocketry.He wrote,"The dream of yesterday is the hope of today,and the(9) reality of tomorrow."
Goddard didn't live to see space light.He died in 1945,but his work didn't stop.Scientists went on to build bigger and better rockets.In 1969,the American rocket Apollo 11 took the first men to the moon.At that time,the New York Times wrote about its 1920 article "The Times(10) regrets the error(错误)."
【分析】本文主要讲了Robert Goddard建造火箭的故事。
【解答】(1)dead.考查形容词。结合cut 用dead修饰branches表示死去的树枝,故答案为dead。
(2)physical.考查形容词。根据He later became a physics professor at a university可知他后来成为了一所大学的物理学教授,因此判断他从图书馆借有关物理科学的书,因此判断空格处词义为物理的,故答案为physical.
(3)until.考查连词。句意:他是一个生病的孩子直到21岁才从高中毕业,结合选词,判断空格处词义为直到,not...until意为直到……才,故答案为until。
(4)less.考查形容词比较级。knowledge为不可数名词,用形容词修饰,根据than判断为比较级,根据下文made fun of him可知人们取笑他,因此判断当时的记者觉得他对于物理的知识比高中生少,故答案为less。
(5)fell.考查动词的过去式。根据traveled判断时态为一般过去时,谓语动词用过去式,结合下文,The flight lasted 2.5 seconds.可知飞行持续了2.5秒,因此判断然后它掉到了地上,故答案为fell。
(6)To continue.考查动词不定式。句意:为了继续他的实验,Goddard用他自己的钱,结合选词,判断空格处词义为继续,用动词不定式表示目的,故答案为To continue.
(7)Nobody.考查不定代词。句意:他成功之后没有人取笑他了,结合句意和选词,判断空格处词义为没有人,故答案为Nobody.

25.(5分)It is one of the most famous books in the world;yet it has no story and no interesting characters,no exciting beginning and no satisfying ending.And yet this book keeps being printed and it keeps growing.At its last printing,it was 20 volumes(卷),with nearly 22,000 pages.This book is one of the most famous dictionaries in the English﹣speaking world,the Oxford English Dictionary.
The Oxford English Dictionary or OED for short,began in 1857 as just an idea of a group of people who thought the world needed an English﹣language dictionary to show the history of English words from 1150 CE to the present.It wasn't until the late 1870s,however,when James Murray joined the project that it began to grow.Murray planned for a dictionary of about 6,400 pages in four volumes,completed in 10 years.
James Murray(1837﹣1915)did most of his work in a small metal building called the Scriptorium.That small building,hot in summer and cold in winter,was the place where Murray and his assistants(助手)collected millions of pieces of paper,each one with a word and an example sentence or phrase written on it.Murray and his assistants worked hard,but after five years they had only reached the word ant!
It was not until 1928 that the dictionary was told to the public completed and published:10 volumes with over 400,000 words and phrases.James Murray did not live to see the completion of his life's work,he passed away in 1915,over ten years before OED came out.
As soon as the dictionary was published,however,the editors started to update(更新) it!In1933,the Oxford English dictionary was reprinted in 12 volumes.Between 1972 and 1986,four more volumes were added with new technical and scientific vocabulary and words from other English﹣﹣speaking countries,such as Canada,the USA,Australia,New Zealand,and South Africa.In 1989,the entire(整个的) dictionary was reprinted in 20 volumes!Three years later,all 20 volumes were put onto CD,and the entire dictionary is available online today.
With about 600,000 words and three million quotations(引语)from over 1,000 years of English,the OED not only records where the English language has come from but has also become an important part of the history of English﹣speaking cultures around the world.
