Module 4Carnival.语法填空There is much discussion about the necessity of daily homework for students.Some say homework is necessary since only practice 1.(make) perfect,while others disagree.In my opinion,daily homework is necessary for students.However,this might be misleading that one may believe all 2.(form) of homework are necessary.3.(actual),only proper amount of homework in proper form is 4.(accept);some homework may not only fail to help the students,but on 5.contrary bore them so much 6. they may lose their interest in study.“Proper” homework,in my opinion,should vary in its forms,which might be some 7.(extend) reading,a paper,or even just a game,as well as other ordinary exercise.And it should leave enough 8.(free) to the students so that they could do things they really like to do with self-motivation,rather than unwillingness.We should always remember that homework is something for us to guide the students,rather than 9.(drive) them.Only if a teacher keeps this10.his/her mind,the homework could be of most help to the students.答案及剖析:1.makes考查动词的时态。分析句子结构可知,空格处在从句since only practice (make) perfect中作谓语,与从句主语practice之间是主动关系,由此结合主句的时态为一般现在时可知,此处填makes。2.forms考查名词单复数。后面的be动词用了复数形式are,由此可判定此处应用form的复数形式。3.Actually考查副词。分析句子结构可知,此处修饰整个句子,故用提示词的副词形式actually,并大写首字母。4.acceptable考查形容词。根据上句和本句句意可知,此处应表示只有适当形式的适量作业才是可以接受的。由空格前的“is”可知,此处作表语,故应填形容词acceptable。5.the考查冠词。on the contrary是固定短语,意为“相反,反而”。6.that考查连词。本句为so.that.句式,意为“如此以至于。”7.extensive考查形容词。名词reading前需要用形容词修饰。故填extensive。8.freedom考查名词。分析句子结构可知,此处作leave的宾语,故用提示词的名词形式freedom。9.drive考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,所填词与句中的“to guide”并列,而在“rather than”后应用省略to的不定式。故填drive。10.in考查介词。keep.in mind是固定短语,意为“记住”。.阅读理解A(2017百校联盟高考模拟)Rhubarb loved everyone and every dog. Whenever someone came to the house, she was always happy. We had an older Samoyed named Willie, and it was important that Rhubarb got along well with him. She wanted to play, but was very respectful of Willie and left him alone when he was tired and needed to rest. Willie was not well and died about a year later, but I believe Rhubarbs interaction helped him keep going for longer than if he had been alone.But the interesting thing about Rhubarb was that she never barked. She would sometimes get excited when she saw a mouse and make a little crying sound. One hot night when she was about 4 years old, we went to bed with the windows open and the doors unlocked. At about 3 a.m., I woke up to the sound of Rhubarb barking and growling. I woke Donald and we got out of bed.Rhubarb was coming toward us with her hackles(颈背毛) up. We turned on the lights and noticed the door to the kitchen was open. Then we saw the door leading into the house from the garage was also open. We quickly locked all the doors, and we did not get any sleep that night.The next day I called the police to report a break-in. I told them nothing had been taken, but they sent a police officer over to talk with us anyway. While he was here, we found out several local homes had been burglarized over the weekend. Most people had their wallets and purses stolen.My purse was right next to the door, but Rhubarb had scared the robber away before he or she could steal it. When the police officer left, he said we should keep our doors locked and reward Rhubarb with a big steak dinner.Rhubarb lived to be almost 12, but that night was the only time she barked in her entire life. Fortunately, she never saw the need to warn us of any other danger. We loved her like a member of the family and still miss our sweet dog.1.What can we learn from the first paragraph?A.Willie was good at communicating.B.Rhubarb and Willie fought at times.C.Rhubarb helped Willie live longer.D.Willie was alone before his death.2.Why did Rhubarb bark on a hot night?A.She got scared.B.She saw a mouse.C.A thief broke into the house.D.The doors were unlocked.3.Which of the following words can be best used to describe Rhubarb?A.Smart but fierce.B.Brave and flexible.C.Gentle but clumsy.D.Friendly and alert.语篇解读:本文为记叙文。Rhubarb是一只很友好但却不会叫的狗。让人诧异的是小偷“光顾”时,它有生以来第一次叫了,并且吓跑了小偷。答案及剖析:1.C细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Willie was not well and died about a year later, but I believe Rhubarbs interaction helped him keep going for longer than if he had been alone”可知,Rhubarb帮助Willie活了更长时间。2.C推理判断题。根据第四段中的“I called the police to report a break-in”以及第五段中的“My purse was right next to the door, but Rhubarb had scared the robber away before he or she could steal it”可知,Rhubarb叫的原因是有小偷潜入。3.D推理判断题。根据第一段的“Rhubarb loved everyone and every dog. Whenever someone came to the house, she was always happy”可知,Rhubarb很友好;再根据下文所述的Rhubarb把潜入家里的小偷吓跑的内容可知,Rhubarb很警觉。故选D项。B(2017豫南九校第四次质量考评)From gobbling(狼吞虎咽)down turkey to spending time with family to watching football, Thanksgiving is filled with traditions.But one of the most popularpulling the wishbonedates back centuries.The upside-down V-shaped bone is actually called the furcula.It is an elastic bone located between a turkeys neck and its breast.Furcula means “little fork” in Latin.All birds have a wishbone.At Thanksgiving, the tradition is for two people to hold one end of the bone, make a wish, and then tug(用力拉).The winner is the person who ends up with the bigger piece.If you believe the legend, the winners wish will come true.The practice of making a wish on a birds furcula dates back to the ancient Etruscans, a people who lived in what is today northern Italy.They believed birds were powerful and divine(非凡的)creatures.After killing a chicken, an Etruscan would leave the wishbone in the sun to dry.Passersby would pick it up, stroke it for good luck, and make a wish.That is how the furcula got the name “wishbone.”The Etruscans passed the ritual(仪式)along to the Romans.Soon, the practice of making a wish on a chickens furcula became popular in ancient Rome.According to legend, it was so widespread that there werent enough chickens or wishbones to go around.So the Romans began breaking the wishbone in two.Now, twice as many people could make wishes.Then the English picked up the tradition.In the 16th century, English settlers brought the practice to the New World.There, they found an abundance of wild turkeys.So they starting using a turkey furcula for their wishes.Today a wishbone tug-of-war is as much a part of Thanksgiving as is gobbling down turkey.4.Which can be the best title for the passage?A.Turkey Tug-of-WarB.A Lucky TurkeyC.The New WorldD.The stories of Thanksgiving5.What does the fourth paragraph focus on?A.How to dry the wishbone.B.The origin of this bone-pulling tradition.C.The place where the ancient Etruscans lived.D.The practice of the ancient Etruscans making a wish on a turkeys furcula.6.Why did the Romans break the wishbone in two?A.To save moeny.B.To protect chickens.C.To create an I-shaped wishbone.D.To give more people the chances to make wishes.7.Where was a turkey t
