一、•单词拼写...............................................................................

1.Peoplearewonderingwhythepriceofmostfood（rise）soquicklyin（hepastfewyears.

【答案】hasrisen

【详解】句意:人们想知道为什么过去几年里大多数食品的价格上涨得如此之快。根据“inthepastfew

years”可知，应该使用现在完成时，主语为“theprice"，是单数，所以应该使用“has”，“rise”的过去分词为

“risen”。故填hasriseno

2.Scientistshaveto（制造）newrockeistoexploreMars.

【答案】make

【详解】句意：科学家们必须制造新火箭来探索火星。根据中文提示可知，“制造”的英文是make；情态动

词haveto后接动词原形。故填make。

3.Wearclookingforwardto（听至U）aboutthenewspacetelescope.

【答案】hearing

【详解】句意：我们期待听到关于新太空望远镜的消息。heai■“听到“，lookforwardtodoingstl「期待做某

8/20

事”。故填hearingo

4.Astronautssharetheirspace（经历）withstudents,whicharemuchmoreexcitingthanstoriesfrom

textbooks.

【答案】experiences

【详解】句意：宇航员与学生们分享他们的太空经历，这比课本上的故事更令人兴奋。根据汉语提示，

experience表示“经历”，名词；再根据"Astronautssharetheirspace”可知，经历不止一个，故此处应用

experience的复数experienceso故填experienceso

5.Everyplanetinoursolarsystemhasits（自己的）uniquefeatures.

【答案】own

【详解】句意：太阳系中的每颗行星都有自己独特的特征。自己的：own,形容词，在此处作定语修饰名

词features。故填own。

6.AMr.Milleristiredafteraday'swork,hespendslotsoftimewithhisfamily.

【答案】（A）lthough

【洋解】句意：尽管米勒先生一天的工作结束后感到很疲惫，但他还是会花很多时间陪伴家人。分析句子

结构可知，空格处缺少连词连接两个句子。"Mr.Milleristiredafteraday'swork"与"hespendslotsoftime

withhisfamily.”是让步关系，结合苜字母“A”可知，此空应填although表示“尽管”，引导让步状语从句，位

于句首，首字母要大写。故填（A）lthough。

7.Doyouthinkthisgoodhabitis（普遍的）amongyoungpeople?

【答案】common

【详解】句意：你认为这个好习惯在年轻人中是普遍的吗？“普遍的”对应的英文形容词是“common”，

“cuuunuii”在句子中作表语，与be动词“is”构成系表结构。故填Riiuuuii。

8.Themistakeis（类似的）totheonethatyoumadeyesterday

【答案】similar

【详解】句意:这个错误和昨天你犯的错误类似。similar”类似的”,形容词作表语。故填similar。

9.Thenewsatellite函达）inspacelastweek.Itcantakemuchclearerphotosthanbefore.

【答案】arrived

【详解】句意：新卫星于上周抵达太空。它可以拍出比以前清晰得多的照片。根据汉语提示和“inspacelast

week”可知，此处应用arrive表示“到达”；再根据"lastweek”可知，时态为一般过去时，动词要用过去式。

故填arrivedo

10.Themorepeopleusewater,thewaterbecomes,（dirty）

【答案】dirtier

【详解】句意：用水的人越多，水就变得越脏。根据"Themorepeopleusewater”可知，此处符合“thc+比较

级，the+比较级”的结构，表示“越……越……”，dirty的比较级是dirtier,表示“更脏的"。故填dirtier。

二、完成句子

9/20

II.当他醒来时，太阳正在升起。

Whenheup,thesunwas.

【答案】wokerising

【详解】wakeup“醒来”,结合“was”可知,when引导的从句用一般过去时,动词用过去式woke；rise“升

起”，结合“正在”可知，主句用过去进行时，第二空用现在分词rising与was构成过去进行时。故填woke；

rising,

12.虽然说想拥有成功的孩子很正常，但是拥有快乐的孩子更重要。

it'snormaltowantsuccessfulchildren,it'seventohavehappychildren.

【答案】Although/Thoughmoreimportant

【详解】although/though“虽然”，引导让步状语从句，句首首字母大写；moreimportant“更重要”，比较级

形式,作表语。故填Although/Though；more；important。

13.尽管其他人违反规则，但是我们应该等待绿灯。

Weshouldfbrthegreenlightothersbreaktherule.

【答案】waitalthough/though

【详解】根据中英文对照可知，空处缺“等待”和“虽然”的英文。wailfor意为“等待”，固定搭配，情态动词

should后跟动词原形，故第一个空填wait；although/though“虽然”引导让步状语从句。故填wail；

although/though<.

14.我最好的朋友和我兴趣相仿。我们俩都对中国的传统服装很感兴趣。

MybestfriendandIme.Wearebothinterestedin.

【答案】havesimilarintereststraditionalChineseclothes

【详解】“兴趣相仿”，即“有相似的兴趣”，其英文表达为havesimilarinterests,句子用一般现在时，主语

是“MybestfriendandI”，谓语动词用原形；traditionalChineseclothes”中国的传统服饰”。故填havesimilar

interests；traditionalChineseclotheso

15.我越了解吉姆，就越意识到我们有很多共同点。

ThemoreIgeltoknowJim,themoreIrealizethatwehavealot.

【答案】incommon

【详解】共同的:common；有共同点:have...incommon,固定词组。故填incommon。

【导语】本文是A与B关于星空的对话，两人围绕星星、行星以及月球展开交流，还表达了对成为宇航员、

探索火星的向往。

16.根据“B:No,theNorthStarissmaller.That'sactuallyJupiter—itlooksbiggerbecauseit'saplanet.“可知,B

用“No”否定回应，并指出那颗星实际是木星而非北极星，说明A的问题是询问那颗亮星是否为北极星。选

项B“它是北极星吗？”符合语境。故选B。

17.根据“B:StarstwinklebecausetheirlightpassesthroughEarth'satmospherebeforeweseeit.“可知，B解释

了星星闪烁的原因（光线穿过地球大气层），结合前文对话涉及“星星”和“行星”的区别，说明A的问题是

18.根据“B:That'stheBigDipper!Ifyoufollowitspointerstars,you'llfindtheNorthStar.”可知，B回答了“那

是北斗七星”，而北斗七星的外形像勺子，说明A的问题是询问那组勺子形状的星星是什么。选项F“那组

像勺子形状的星星是什么？”符合语境。故选F。

19.根据“B:Yes!Thatreddishoneoverthere.MarsissmallerthanEarthbutcolder.”可知，B用"Yes”肯定回应,
