rgovernment”可推知，这些工作人员来提供帮助很可能是因为政府的支持。3．C推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Shetoldusthatafterthewaterconservationproject…toincreasethefruitproductionwithcleanwaterintheriver.”可推测，这个村庄的水果产量会提高。4．D词义猜测题。根据第二段和第四段的内容可知，政府工作人员得知村民果园缺水后努力为他们解决问题，这说明他们为乡村的发展做出了很大努力，故“devotedthemselvesto”的意思同D项“做出很大努力”。5．A标题选择题。本文主要介绍了作者的家乡是如何变得更好的，故A项最适合作为本文的标题。Day3(2021·河南改编)“Idon'twanttogo,MissWhite.I'mfrightened(害怕的),veryfrightened，”Monicatoldherteacher.Monicawasavery1girl.Shealwayssatatthebackoftheclassroom,2ortakingnotes.EveryMondaymorning,therewouldbeaspecialshowinherclassandonestudentwouldbe3tomakeaspeechabouthisorherdream.MissWhitehopedthatMonicacouldhaveatrythenextweek.Butsherefused.“Iknowthatitseems4foryou,butitwillhelpyoubuildupyourconfidence(信心)，”saidMissWhite.Monicawaslostinthought.Thenextday,MonicacametoMissWhite'soffice.MissWhitewas5thatshewouldtakethechance.MissWhitered­penciledhermanuscript(手稿)ofspeech,correctedher6,andevenhelpedwithherbodylanguage.SheadvisedMonicatopracticeand7thatshewasspeakingconfidentlyinfrontofherclass.8awholeweek,Monicapracticedspeakinginfrontofherimaginaryfriendsandteacher.Behindthelockeddoorofherbedroom,shetoldthemabouther9．Finally,Mondayarrived.10Monicawascalledupontogiveherspeech,she11andwalkedtothefrontoftheclasswithoutanynotes,inashowofconfidence.Monica'ssuccessfulperformancebroughteveryoneagreat12.Thewholeclassclapped(鼓掌)forafullminutewhenshecompletedherspeech.MissWhite13.ShehadknownthatMonicawouldmakeitwhenshe14tookherfirststeptoovercome(克服)herfearofspeakinginpublic.Fromthatday,Monica'slifechangedforthebetter.Attheageof23,shebecameanewsreader.Peoplewhoseeherontelevisionnowwillfindithardto15thatshewasonceashygirlwhorefusedtospeakupinclass.()1.A.activeB．lazyC．quietD．polite()2.A.readingB．singingC．talkingD．laughing()3.A.warnedB．forcedC．caughtD．chosen()4.A.difficultB．importantC．necessaryD．interesting()5.A.madB．gladC．boredD．afraid()6.A.situationB．conversationC．explanationD．pronunciation()7.A.realizeB．examineC．imagineD．introduce()8.A.ByB．ForC．WithD．Along()9.A.jobB．hobbyC．dreamD．promise()10.A.WhenB．UntilC．SinceD．Though()11.A.wokeupB．lookedupC．stoodupD．dressedup()12.A.secretB．thoughtC．decisionD．surprise()13.A.agreedB．smiledC．answeredD．shouted()14.A.easilyB．luckilyC．quicklyD．bravely()15.A.expectB．believeC．discussD．express【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述的是一个很害羞的女孩莫妮卡在老师的鼓励和帮助下，成功克服恐惧，在全班同学面前自信地完成她的演讲的故事。从那以后莫妮卡的人生变得更好了，她最后成为了一名新闻播音员。1．C考查形容词辨析。根据“Shealwayssatatthebackoftheclassroom…”“MissWhitehopedthatMonicacouldhaveatrythenextweek.Butsherefused.”以及最后一段中的“shewasonceashygirl”可以推断她是一个安静的女孩。2．A考查动词辨析。根据前文可知，她是个很安静的女孩，推断此处指的是在教室里读书。3．D考查动词辨析。根据下文的描述可知，此处指的是一个学生会被挑选出来作演讲。4．A考查形容词辨析。根据上文“Idon'twanttogo,MissWhite.I'mfrightened”可知，此处指的是对她来说很难。5．B考查形容词辨析。根据上文“MissWhitehopedthatMonicacouldhaveatrythenextweek.Butsherefused.”及空后“shewouldtakethechance”以及怀特老师的做法可知，老师因为她抓住这个机会而感到高兴。6．D考查名词辨析。根据句中的“MissWhitered­penciledhermanuscriptofspeech,corrected…helpedwithher…”及四个备选项可知，此处指的是纠正发音。7．C考查动词辨析。根据下文“Monicapracticedspeakinginfrontofherimaginaryfriendsandteacher.”可知，此处指怀特老师让莫妮卡想象自己自信地在全班面前演讲。8．B考查介词辨析。设空后面指的是一段时间“awholeweek”，故用for。9．C考查名词辨析。根据句意并结合上文“EveryMondaymorning,therewouldbeaspecialshowinherclassandonestudent…makeaspeechabouthisorherdream.”可知，此处指梦想。10．A考查连词辨析。此处指莫妮卡被要求作演讲时，故所缺的连词是when。11．C考查动词词组辨析。根据文意及常识可知，此处指她站起来。12．D考查名词辨析。莫妮卡之前很文静，但是现在她在全班同学面前自信地脱稿演讲，因此她成功的表现让所有人都很惊讶。13．B考查动词辨析。根据上下文可知，怀特老师对莫妮卡的成功表现很欣慰，所以笑了。14．D考查副词辨析。此处指莫妮卡勇敢地迈出第一步来克服在大众面前讲话的恐惧时，她就知道莫妮卡会成功。15．B考查动词辨析。根据文章内容可知，原来莫妮卡害怕在公众面前讲话，现在却成为了新闻播音员，所以人们难以相信。Day4阅读短文，回答下列问题。Ateacheroncetoldherstudentstobringabagandsomepotatoestoschool.Whentheydidn'twanttoforgive(原谅)aperson,theychoseapotatoandwrotetheperson'snameonit.Thentheyputitinthebag.Someoftheirbagsbecameheavierandheavier.Theyweretoldtocarrytheirbagswiththemeverywhereforoneweek.Theywouldputthembesidetheirbedsatnight,ontheseatswhensittingonbuses,andnexttotheirdesksatschool.Carryingthebagseverywheremadethestudentsverytired.Theyfeltheavystonesintheirhearts.Andtheyhadtopayattentiontothemallthetime,sotheydidn'tforgetthem.Thepotatoeswentbadandsmeltterriblesoon.Forgivenessisagifttootherpeople.However,itisalsoagifttousatthesametime.Ifwekeepoursadnessandhatred(仇恨)inourhearts,wewillhavetocarrythemaroundallourlives.Soweshouldlearntoforgive.1．Wheredidthestudentswritetheperson'sname?________________________________________________________________________2．Howlongweretheytoldtocarrytheirbags?________________________________________________________________________3．Whatmadethestudentsverytired?________________________________________________________________________4．Didthepotatoesgobadandsmellterriblesoon?________________________________________________________________________5．Whatcanwelearnfromthepassage?________________________________________________________________________【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过讲述老师让学生们将自己讨厌的人的名字写在土豆上面，然后每天随时携带，时间长了土豆变质并发出恶臭的味道的故事，从而启示我们学会原谅他人，为自己减负。1．Onapotato.根据第一段第二句“Whentheydidn'twanttoforgiveaperson,theychoseapotatoandwrotetheperson'snameonit.”可知，学生们把自己的名字写在土豆上。2．Forone/aweek.根据第二段第一句“Theyweretoldtocarrytheirbagswith
