【題目】閱讀下面短文,在空白處填入 1個適當?shù)膯卧~或括號內單詞的正確形式。
Dear world, here is why you should care about astronomy. It’s true that its advances benefit millions of people across the world. It has developed technology now to track where your 【1】 (pack) goes, to determine where you are and so 【2】.
But all of these are mere second thoughts, 【3】 (benefit) that have occurred without the primary intention of the maker. And that is 【4】 makes astronomy beautiful. To study something - not because we’re looking to gain anything in particular, but purely 【5】 (enjoy) natural wonders - 【6】 (be) all that makes us human. Doing work for the work itself creates room for mindfulness and joy.
I 【7】 (firm) believe that astronomy has a spiritual dimension in the sense of how it connects us with something bigger than ourselves. Because 【8】 astronomy, we now know exactly when the Universe 【9】 (come) into existence. And we’ve spotted thousands of planets orbiting other stars. It has explained mysteries (神秘的事物) 【10】 (confuse) us for thousands of years, but even more significant, it has opened up more mysteries than any of us can study in our lifetime.
【答案】
【1】package
【2】on
【3】benefits
【4】what
【5】to enjoy
【6】is
【7】firmly
【8】of
【9】came
【10】confusing
【解析】
這是一篇記敘文。本文說明了世界應該關心天文學的原因。
【1】
考查名詞?瞻滋幥盀槿朔Q代詞的物主格your,屬于形容詞,結合詞類用法,形容詞修飾名詞,所以,空白處應填名詞。pack作為動詞時,意思為“收拾(行李),裝(箱)”,其名詞形式為package。故填package。
【2】
考查固定用法。and so on“等等,諸如此類”,所以此處填介詞on。故填on
【3】
考查名詞。該空和前面的thoughts為并列結構,所以形式上要一致,benefit是可數(shù)名詞,所以用名詞復數(shù)。故填benefits。
【4】
考查表語從句。分析句子可知,空白處及以后的內容為表語從句,又結合從句分析,缺少主語,此處表示“什么”,故填what。
【5】
考查非謂語動詞。本句中使用了并列結構not…but…“不是……而是……”,因而but后形式要和not后的形式一樣;結合not后的內容because we’re looking to gain anything in particular,可知to gain anything in particular為不定式作目的狀語,所以but后也應為because we’re looking purely to enjoy natural wonders,為了避免重復,所以省略了because we’re looking purely,故填to enjoy。
【6】
考查主謂一致。分析句子可知,本句的主語為to study something,為不定式,當不定式作主語時,謂語動詞用單數(shù);結合全文時態(tài),可知此處要用一般現(xiàn)在時。故填is。
【7】
考查副詞。空白處后為謂語動詞,修飾動詞要用副詞,firm為形容詞,其副詞形式為firmly。故填firmly。
【8】
考查介詞。固定短語because of “由于,因為”,其后常跟名詞或名詞短語,結合本句可知,astronomy為單個名詞,所以填寫介詞of。故填of。
【9】
考查時態(tài)。分析句子,本句為復合句,其中when the Universe 9 (come) into existence.是一個賓語從句,主句使用一般現(xiàn)在時,賓語從句可以使用任何適當?shù)臅r態(tài)。短語come into existence“形成,開始存在”,結合句意,我們現(xiàn)在準確的知道了宇宙是什么時候形成的。宇宙的形成是發(fā)生在過去,所以,賓語從句要用一般過去時。故填came。
【10】
考查非謂語動詞。句意:這個已經解釋了困惑我們幾千年來的神秘的事物。confuse與其邏輯主語mysteries之間是主動關系,用現(xiàn)在分詞短語作定語。故填confusing。

【題目】 China’s war on garbage is as digital as the country itself. Think QR codes attached to trash bags that allow the government to trace exactly where its trash comes from.
On July 1, Shanghai began a compulsory garbage sorting program. Households and companies must classify their wastes into four categories and dump them in appointed places at certain times. The strict program became a headache for some residents. Not even the most environmentally conscious person can get all the answers right. Like, which bin does the newspaper you just used to pick up dog poop (糞便)belong to?
Gratefully, China’s tech startups are here to help. For instance, China’s biggest internet companies responded with new search features that help people identify what wastes are “wet”, “dry”, “toxic”, or “recyclable”. Simply pull up a mini app on WeChat, Baidu or Alipay and enter the keyword. The tech firms will give you the answer and why.
Alipay, Alibaba’s electronics payment company, claims its garbage sorting mini app added one million users under just three days. The mini app has so far indexed (編索引) more than 4,000 types of rubbish. Its database is still growing, and soon it will save people from typing by using image recognition to classify trash when they snap a photo of it. If people are too busy or lazy to hit the collection schedule, well, startups are offering trash service at the doorstep. A third-party developer helped Alipay build a recycling mini app and is now collecting garbage from 8,000 apartment complexes across 11 cities. To date, two million people have sold recyclable materials through its platform.
Besides helping households out, companies are also building software to make property managers, life easier. Some residential complexes in Shanghai began using QR codes to trace the origin of garbage. This way, regulators in the region know exactly which family has produced the trash and fine violators.
【1】What are some residents confused about?
A.Environmental knowledge.B.Bin for dog poop.
C.Some waste classification.D.Time for dumping.
【2】What is the advantage of trash service at the doorstep?
A.It provides time flexibility.B.It reduces household waste.
C.It saves people from typing.D.It classifies rubbish properly.
【3】Who will probably most welcome the use of QR codes?
A.Third-party developers.B.Company managers.
C.Community administrators.D.Rubbish collectors.
【4】What is the main idea of this article?
A.People need recycling apps badly.
B.People should classify their rubbish.
C.How regulators benefit from the tech.
D.How China uses tech to sort waste.

We touch our faces all the time, and it had never seemed to be a big problem – until COVID-19 arrived. 【1】 (touch) our faces – the “T-zone” of our eyes, nose and mouth in particular – can mean giving ourselves the 【2】 (dead) virus. This is why 【3】 (organization) like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have suggested that we avoid touching our faces. “Just stop this simple behavior,” William Sawyer, founder of Henry the Hand, a nonprofit organization that promotes hand hygiene(衛(wèi)生), 【4】(tell) The Washington Post. “It’s the one behavior 【5】 would be better than any vaccine ever created.”
Yet, stopping this “simple” behavior might be harder than you think because it’s already hardwired(固有的) into our system. Some face touching is automatic – like when there is 【6】 itch on your nose, you’ll scratch it without thinking. Moreover, face-touching is subconscious, 【7】 means it’s very hard to change because you don’t even know you’re doing it. 【8】you’re not alone. In a 2015 study, where a group of medical students 【9】 (film) in class, it was found that they touched their faces an average of 23 times an hour – with 44 percent of the touches being in the “T-zones”. That was particularly surprising since medical students were supposed 【10】(know) better. Since it’s so hard to shake the habit, maybe the easiest way is to wash our hands more often. This way, we can be sure that our hands are free from the novel coronavirus.

【題目】 In 1848 gold was found in California. Thousands of people rushed there to get some. Many people liked living there. But there wasn’t a whole lot between California (CA) and Missouri (MO), where the nearest trains ran. The train line to California wasn’t finished until 1869.
In I860 and 1861, the Pony Express was the fastest way to get news to and from the West. The trail that they rode was around 2000 miles long. It took most people weeks or months to ride that far. The Pony Express could make the trip in just ten days. Those speeds were unheard of at the time. So how did they do it? Well, they had a good system.
The Pony Express had 184 stations along the trail. The stations were around ten miles apart. This is about how far a horse could run at a gallop (疾馳) before tiring. The rider would switch to a new horse at each station. He would only take his mail pouch (郵袋) with him. Every 75-100 miles, the rider would get to a home station. At each home station, riders would rest. The mail never stopped moving, even while the horses and riders rested.
It was tough to ride for the Pony Express. Each rider had to weigh less than 125 pounds. Speed was the key. Most of the riders were teenage boys. They rode at a fast pace for up to 100 miles a day. If there were an emergency, one might have to ride 200 miles in a day.
The Pony Express filled an important role for a time, but it did not last. The Civil War started in April of 1861. On October 24th, 1861, the first telegraph line to California was finished. This linked them to the rest of the country. People could send messages in an instant. Two days later the Pony Express closed.
【1】Which happened first?
A.The Pony Express was started.B.The American Civil War broke out.
C.The train line to California was finished.D.Settlers rushed to California to find gold.
【2】How long did it take the Pony Express to send mail from CA to MO?
A.About 24 hours.B.About ten days.
C.About twenty days.D.About one month.
【3】What would a rider do at the home station?
A.Give his mail to a new rider.B.Rest a while and go on riding.
C.Collect new mail for customers.D.Feed the horse and check the mail.
【4】What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A.To prove communication industry develops rapidly.
B.To explain why horses were used to deliver mail.
C.To describe the I860 - 1861E Fastest Mail Service.
D.To tell the brave stories of the Pony Express.
