【解析】

本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。主要介紹了大洋洲一個(gè)島上鱷魚成人儀式的過(guò)程。

1句意:在一些國(guó)家,在你18歲的生日就發(fā)生了。

根據(jù)上文When does a teenager grow up and become an adult?(一般現(xiàn)在時(shí))青少年什么時(shí)候長(zhǎng)大為成年人呢。根據(jù)句意表示18歲就發(fā)生了。it是第三人稱單數(shù),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用第三人稱單數(shù)形式。故答案填happens。

2句意:你要做一些特別的事情來(lái)進(jìn)入成人世界。

根據(jù)the world of grown-ups可知是進(jìn)入成人的世界。to后跟動(dòng)詞原形,故答案填enter。

3句意:青年男孩什么時(shí)候成為男人呢?一個(gè)鱷魚成人就發(fā)生了。

根據(jù)第一句話When does a teenager grow up and become an adult?可知是青年人成年。故答案填teenage。

4句意:這些男孩被帶去一個(gè)叫鱷魚巢的小房間。

small housethe “Crocodile Nest”是被動(dòng)關(guān)系,表示被叫做,call叫做。句子成分分析可知are taken是真正謂語(yǔ),所以空格處要用非謂語(yǔ)形式。故答案填called

5句意:村子里的老人說(shuō)如果這些男孩們會(huì)想起他們的鱷魚父母。

根據(jù)上文In the house, the boys are told to think of their crocodile “fathers and mothers”在房子里,男孩們被告訴要想起他們的鱷魚爸爸媽媽。故這里填父母親2人,復(fù)數(shù)形式。故答案填parents

6句意:為了讓他們的思想遠(yuǎn)離疼痛,男孩們?cè)诜块g里講笑話。

根據(jù)上文they will be stronger and braver because the ceremony will cause great pain.因?yàn)檫@個(gè)儀式會(huì)產(chǎn)生巨大的疼痛感所以他們會(huì)變得更強(qiáng)大和勇敢。故這里是疼痛的意思,pain是不可數(shù)名詞。故答案填pain

7句意:為了讓他們的思想遠(yuǎn)離疼痛,男孩們?cè)诜块g里講笑話,而不是只沉默地呆著。

根據(jù)上文the boys tell jokes in the house講笑話來(lái)代替沉默。動(dòng)詞stay后跟副詞形式。沉默地silently。故答案填silently

8句意:令人吃驚的是,在儀式最令人疼痛部分的時(shí)候有些男孩甚至睡著了。

根據(jù)句意和句子成分分析,some of the boys 主語(yǔ),even sleep謂語(yǔ) d___8___ the most painful parts of the ceremony!時(shí)間狀語(yǔ),所以空格處缺少引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)的介詞,在……期間。故答案填during。

9句意:當(dāng)男孩們最終離開鱷魚房間時(shí)。

When the boys主語(yǔ), f___9___ leave謂語(yǔ) the crocodile house賓語(yǔ),所以空格地方缺少副詞,表示最后。故答案填finally

10句意:當(dāng)男孩們最終離開鱷魚房間時(shí),村子里唱歌和跳舞來(lái)歡迎新的鱷魚男人們。

根據(jù)there is singing and dancing歌聲和舞蹈來(lái)歡迎,to后跟動(dòng)詞原形。故答案填welcome。

短文填空是英語(yǔ)中難度比較大的題目之一,不僅要考慮句子的意思,成分,時(shí)態(tài)之外,還要有大量的詞匯基礎(chǔ)。當(dāng)對(duì)答案不確定時(shí),可以根據(jù)上下文來(lái)核對(duì)答案。如第9題,在分析句子中成分齊全后,可以考慮副詞,介詞等。再理解文章后是,男人們歷經(jīng)艱辛終于離開了鱷魚房間,所以考慮是時(shí)間副詞。

【題目】 Spring will soon be upon us and a new term is here. All over the world spring is the season of new life: flowers bloom, baby animals are born, and the weather becomes warmerDuring this time of year, people usually walk around with a spring in their steps and a feeling of fresh beginningsHowever, for a fresh beginning it takes more than the bright colors and fresh air of springWe need to look at ourselves, set new goals(目標(biāo)), and decide how to improve ourselves

In England ,people usually do this on the first day of the year. We look at the past year and think about what we' d like to change or improve in our lives, and we call this a New Year' s resolution(決心).These can be anything from improving one' s health through exercise or giving up bad habits, to studying harder for better grades or trying to find a good work or life balance

Luckily, we don' t have to wait for the beginning of a new year to try and become better peopleWe can do this whenever we likeThe milestone of a new term is just a good place to start.

Sometimes it' s difficult to take the first step in achieving newly set goals, but an old saying is "to begin is to be half-way there" I agree with this because taking on a new task or changing habits can seem daunting at first, but once we begin, they get easier

The trick(技巧)with deciding on a resolution for a new term is not to set unrealistic(不實(shí)際) goals. If we do this, it's easy to lose heart, because the final goal seems so far away. Try to make many small goals that you want to reach on the way to your final goal. This way, you can see your progress easily.

1In Paragraph One, the writer wants to tell us that spring is a time _________

A.to take a walk around outdoorsB.to enjoy fresh air and bright colors

C.to set goals for a fresh beginningD.for animals to have babies

2According to Paragraph Four, the writer agree with ________.

A.Be swift to hear, slow to speak.B.All that ends well is well.

C.Well begun is half done.D.All roads lead to Rome.

3What does the underlined word "daunting" probably mean in Paragraph Four?

A.changeableB.difficultC.lovelyD.dangerous

4What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph?

A.If you see no progress, you'll be sad.B.Whatever happens, stick to your dreams.

C.Never lose heart when meeting with difficultiesD.Your goals should be realistic and small.
