1.has been marked。

2.situated

3.However

4.Realizing

5.unable

6.who

7.every

8.them

9.before

10.the

【解析】

試題分析：在本文中作者介紹了中國傳統(tǒng)的賽龍舟。每當(dāng)農(nóng)歷五月初五，人們都會舉行賽龍舟比賽，包粽子比賽來紀(jì)念偉大的歷史人物屈原。這種傳統(tǒng)的由來是為了不讓河里的魚去吃投江自殺的屈原的尸體。

1.has been marked。由時(shí)間狀語for thousands of years可知，句子謂語動詞應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時(shí)，表示端午節(jié)一直以來都以吃粽子和賽龍珠的方式進(jìn)行慶祝，而且將來也會如此，故填has been marked。

2.situated。表示某地方位于何地時(shí)，用be situated in /on, 句中“situated…”相當(dāng)于定語從句，“which was situated…”。

3.However。前后兩句是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，而空格前后都有標(biāo)點(diǎn)，故填副詞However。

4.Realizing。因邏輯主語Qu與realize是主動關(guān)系，故填Realizing。

5.unable。由but可知，漁民未能救活他，故用able相反意思的unable。

6.who。引導(dǎo)定語從句并在從句中作主語，先行詞是The people of Chu，故填who。

7.every。根據(jù)常識可知此處是指“每一”年。

8.them。代替復(fù)數(shù)名詞the mourners，而且在句中作賓語，故填them。

9.before。因“將它裹好、綁好”應(yīng)是在“將粽子扔進(jìn)河里”之前，才不會給河里的一種爬行動物偷吃，故填介詞before。

10.the。因many / little / few 等詞在后面有定語從句或不定式等成分修飾時(shí)，其前面用the表特指，故該處填the。

I didn’t realize the importance of working in groups since I was chosen monitor of my class in high school.

When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer(自動換幣器) fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.

Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note—“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery” —and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically appear.

All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery. Mr Basille always said, “delivering milk is hard if you want to do it well but I love my job.”

There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.

Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted it on the back porch(門廊). Often my son’s friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.

1.Why did Mr Basille give the boy a quarter out of his coin changer? (within 9 words)

_______________________________________________________

2.How could the author’s mother change their order? (within 10 words)

_______________________________________________________

3.Why did the author’s family put the box indoors? (within 6 words)

_______________________________________________________

4.What made it difficult for milkmen to compete with big companies? (within 6 words)

5.What did Mr Basille think of his job? (within 7 words)

To American visitors, Iceland is a very interesting country, partly because it is different in so many ways from he or she is used to seeing at home. There are quite a few things that are not done, or that do not exist on the island---quite a few “No’s”.

There is no pollution, for instance, No dogs are permitted in Reykjavik, the capital. There is no television on Thursdays or during the entire month of July, and only three hours of black-and-white TV the rest of the time. There is no hard liquor(烈酒) on Wednesdays and no beer at any time. There is no handguns; only one jail of thirty-five cells（獄室）in the entire land---an admirable figure, even for a small country of 313,376 people.

There is no army, air force or navy. There is no tipping for anything. There are no large stores open on Saturdays or Sundays. Since Iceland is situated just under the Arctic Circle, there is no darkness in summer and no daylight in winter. But thanks to Culf Stream, the climate is rather mild, with temperatures ranging from 34 degrees to 52 degrees in July.

The rules on television liquor and guns are the result of government decisions. But the absence of pollution is due in great part to the fact that Iceland gets its power from the enormous geyser and the thousands of hot springs that come out of the ground. They provide all the energy needed by the country. In fact, Iceland uses only 3 percent of all its available power.

Iceland has been described as a democratic independent country where more fish are caught and more books published per person than anywhere else in the world. The Icelanders have always felt a particular love for literature. They composed their first books in the ninth and tenth centuries AD. These works were poems and tales about the kings, heroes, and heroines of Iceland and Norway. At first, the stories were memorized and passed from generation to generation. They were finally written down between1140 and 1220. The Icelanders have never stopped writing ever since. “Rather shoeless than bookless,” they proudly say.

1.American visitors enjoy visiting Iceland probably because_______.

A. no dogs are permitted in the capital

B. the police do not carry handguns

C. the climate is rather mild

D. it is very different from America

2.The following statements are true EXCEPT________.

A. there are no soldiers in Iceland

B. the Icelanders don’t drink beer

C. there is no tip of any kind

D. there are no crimes in Iceland

3.There is no pollution in Iceland mainly because_______.

A. Iceland uses only 3 percent of all its available power

B. the Icelanders use hot water from the ground below as their energy

C. it is located just under the Arctic Circle

D. it is a democratic independent country

4. “Rather shoeless than bookless” means_______.

A. they prefer not to have shoe or books

B. they would rather have shoes on than write books

C. they prefer travelling to reading

D. they regard books more important than shoes.
