(they) to protecting those precious species.The zoo panda experts have more 10.               

(confident) in their work.

1．答案　the

解析　考查冠词。句中“38th”为序数词，表示新星的第38个生日，序数词前应加定冠词the。故填the。

2．答案　is expected

解析　考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子可知，expect意为“期待，期望”，句子陈述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时；主语panda与expect之间为逻辑上的被动关系，即熊猫被期望打破吉尼斯世界纪录，应用被动语态；主语panda为单数，谓语动词应用单数形式。故填is expected。

3．答案　to

解析　考查介词。句中“110      130”表示的是“110岁到130岁”，这时中间应用介词to，表示“(从……)到……”。故填to。

4．答案　came

解析　考查动词的时态。文章讲述的是给新星庆祝生日的事，为过去的事，应用一般过去时，动词要用过去式。come out of意为“从……中出来”，come的过去式为came。故填came。

5．答案　faster

解析　考查副词的比较级。根据句中than可知，应用比较级，在把新星和其他熊猫进行对比，fast意为“快速地”，比较级为faster。故填faster。

6．答案　teeth

解析　考查名词的单复数。句中tooth意为“牙齿”，为可数名词，熊猫并不只有一颗牙齿，并由空后的are可知，应用tooth的复数形式teeth。故填teeth。

7．答案　that/which

解析　考查定语从句的关系词。分析句子可知，空处引导定语从句，先行词bamboo leaves，为物，在从句中作cut的宾语，故应用关系代词that或which引导从句。故填that/which。

8．答案　born

解析　考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知，bear意为“生(孩子)”，句中涉及固定短语“be born in...”，意为“出生于……”，空格处为过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰Xin Xing，bear的过去分词为born。故填born。

9．答案　themselves

解析　考查固定短语。句中涉及固定短语“devote oneself to doing”，意为“致力于做(某事)”，they的反身代词为themselves。故填themselves。

10．答案　confidence

解析　考查词性转换。句中have为动词，后接名词作宾语，confident的名词形式为confidence，意为“信心”，为不可数名词。故填confidence。

Ⅲ.读后续写

(2020·山东潍坊二模)

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

I received an urgent call from my aunt.“Turn on the TV.Granny’s on the Channel 10 news.” It turned out that Granny had made a sandwich run for her office and was stopped at a red light downtown.She had the window rolled down to enjoy the breeze when a man rushed up to the driver’s side window，intending to carjack(劫车) her.

Now，what the would-be carjacker couldn’t have known was that this woman simply wasn’t “a granny”．This was Nancy Johnson—the same woman who owned and lived on a Texas cattle farm，drove her own tractors，and dug her own post holes to lay fence.The week before，she had shot a rattlesnake and chopped off its head with a shovel.She was the proud owner of the new minivan(小型货车) she was driving.In other words，she was not your normal kind of granny.

The carjacker leaned into the open window，one hand stuffed in his pocket，and said，“Get out of this car.I have a gun，and I will shoot you.” A statement like that would have terrified anyone else.Instead，Granny saw it as a challenge.“If you really had a gun in your pocket，you would have pulled it out and led with that first，” she shouted at him，apparently unworried.

She was right.The carjacker didn’t have a gun.He instead reached into the window，grabbed her，and tried to pull her out of the van.He pulled open the door，wildly catching Granny’s arms.Granny leaned her shoulder inside to press the horn(喇叭) and started yelling to make people around notice what was happening.With the door now open，she held tight the steering wheel with one arm and started kicking the man anywhere her foot could make contact.This tall woman had quite a reach.

注意：续写词数应为150左右。

After a well-placed kick，the man was done，and attempted to release her and run.        

Later，we asked, “Granny，don’t you realize you could have got yourself killed？”   

参考范文

After a well-placed kick，the man was done，and attempted to release her and run.But Granny wouldn’t stand for that.It was now her turn to grab onto him，her hands made strong from hours and hours of farm work.That poor fool didn’t have a chance.She shouted for help to bystanders，and they rushed to her aid.With Granny leading the charge，a group of strangers came together and pinned the man to the sidewalk，holding him there until the police came.A silver-haired woman had just made a citizen’s arrest.

Later，we asked, “Granny，don’t you realize you could have got yourself killed？” Granny’s answer was surprisingly amusing and simple，“I wasn’t scared of that little idiot.I’d had my brand-new van for less than two days and a pack of good sandwiches for my office.And there was no way he was going to get either of those！” But we all learned an important lesson from her that day—the same lesson that had been building through the years.She encouraged us to push boundaries and expectations.But even more so，she taught us fearlessness.
