【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。將答案填寫在答題卡的相應位置
English was once 【1】 (speak) only by people in a part of Britain. But during the twentieth century, it became a world language-a language used by speakers of many different languages 【2】 (communicate) with each other. 【3】 it is called a “world language”, more than five billion people- most of people on the earth-do not speak English as either their first 【4】 second language. However, hundreds of millions of people use it, and hundreds of millions are learning it. Because so many people learn and use English, it may be hard to imagine that one day English may not be the world’s 【5】 (lead) language. Remember that there were other important languages in the past which lost their 【6】 (important) or even disappeared. In Europe, Latin was used as a common language for many centuries before people stopped using it. French was once a language 【7】 (know) by all well-educated people, and was 【8】 (popular) than English. But since the nineteenth century, English 【9】 (become) more popular than French. Today, many people 【10】 want to learn a new language are learning Chinese, Spanish or Arabic. It may be that, one day, instead of English, another language will be used across the world.
【答案】
【1】spoken
【2】to communicate
【3】Although/Though/While
【4】or
【5】leading
【6】importance
【7】known
【8】more popular
【9】has become
【10】who/that
【解析】
這是一篇說明文。主要介紹了盡管英語被稱為“世界語言”,但超過50億人——地球上的大多數(shù)人不會把英語作為第一語言或第二語言。文章分析了過去一些重要的語言,并分析也許有一天,世界各地會用另一種語言來代替英語。
【1】考查動詞時態(tài)語態(tài)。本句中主語與謂語動詞構成被動關系,且根據(jù)上文English was once可知為一般過去時的被動。故填spoken。
【2】考查非謂語動詞。分析句子結構可知communicate在句中作非謂語動詞,且為動詞不定式作目的狀語。故填to communicate。
【3】考查連接詞。句意:盡管英語被稱為“世界語言”,但超過50億人——地球上的大多數(shù)人不會把英語作為第一語言或第二語言。本句為讓步狀語從句,表示“盡管”應用although/though/while引導,句首字母要大寫。故填Although/Though/While。
【4】考查固定短語。根據(jù)短語either…or…表示“要么……要么……”。故填or。
【5】考查形容詞。修飾后文名詞language應用形容詞leading,表示“主流的”。故填leading。
【6】考查名詞。根據(jù)上文their為形容詞性物主代詞修飾名詞importance,表示“重要性”。故填importance。
【7】考查非謂語動詞。分析句子結構可知know在句中作非謂語動詞,與邏輯主語language構成被動關系,故用過去分詞。故填known。
【8】考查比較級。句意:法語曾經是所有受過良好教育的人都知道的語言,而且比英語更受歡迎。結合句意可知表示“更受歡迎”應用比較級形式。故填more popular。
【9】考查動詞時態(tài)。根據(jù)上文since the nineteenth century可知應用現(xiàn)在完成時,且主語為English,助動詞用has。故填has become。
【10】考查定語從句。句意:今天,許多想學一門新語言的人正在學習漢語、西班牙語或阿拉伯語。本句為定語從句修飾先行詞people,且先行詞在從句中做主語,指人應用關系代詞who或that。故填who/that。
定語從句中的關系詞選擇,可考慮以下幾點:
1、看清楚先行詞的意義,就是理清先行詞是指人、指物、時間、地點、原因。指物時不能用who或whom,指人時通常不用which等等。
2、看清楚關系詞的句法功能,就是理清關系詞是擔任什么句子成分,是作主語還是賓語、是作定語還是狀語等等。作定語通常用whose,有時也用which。作狀語要用when, where, why。
3、看清楚定語從句的種類,就是理清是限制性定語從句還是非限制性定語從句。that、why通常不引導非限制性定語從句。
4、看清楚文體,就是理清是正式文體,還是非正式文體。是書面語體還是口語體。
如第十小題,句意:今天,許多想學一門新語言的人正在學習漢語、西班牙語或阿拉伯語。本句為定語從句修飾先行詞people,且先行詞在從句中做主語,指人應用關系代詞who或that。故填who/that。

【題目】Three simple keys to success
Being successful means different things to different people. 【1】 My point is, the specifics involved in finding success can vary greatly, depending on your goal.
There are three basic components necessary for finding success, regardless of the specifics of your pursuit. And, since the desire for ownership is the driving force behind acquisition, I’ll use the word OWN as my simple three-item method for success.
1.O-Opportunity: one of the most important components in finding success is being able to identify opportunity. It is to success what wind is to sailing. 【2】 Identifying opportunity is the first step; awareness sets your sails for success while your motivation provides the wind.
2.W-Wisdom: By definition, wisdom is the accurate application of knowledge. 【3】 It requires clear understanding, great insight and good judgment. Once opportunity is identified, you must use all your inner resources to seize it and make the most of it. 【4】 Finding success when opportunity presents itself often means reaching out for help in areas where you have weakness.
3.N-Never give up: This might possibly be the most important for success. The key is to first break your goal down into workable parts so you don’t feel pressured, and then to work each part at ease with both enthusiasm and purpose. It takes a lot of time, effort and determination to succeed. 【5】
A.Being successful demands doing well.
B.But wisdom involves more than just knowing.
C.You simply can’t have one without the other.
D.Having this attitude keeps you moving in face of trouble and becomes the driving force.
E.Besides, wisdom means knowing your limitations.
F.You’ll finally succeed if you follow these steps.
G.The road to success is being largely determined by what result you want to achieve.

【題目】 Cala didn’t like us. Any of us. We didn’t do anything to offend her and she didn’t know us but that didn’t matter; she still didn’t like us.
As new teachers in the Emirati school, we Westerners greeted her every day. She ignored us. She came into our rooms and bypassed us as she shook hands with all the non-Westerners. Whenever we saw her, she avoided eye contact with us. Eventually, we stopped trying to befriend her.

Then came the day. We all gathered in the meeting room. When you gave your gift, you said a few kind words about your secret friend and passed the gift to her. What could I say? Everyone knew she didn’t like the Westerners. She taught music in the school so I said “My secret friend is someone who brings music to our ears every day.” She came forward with a huge warm smile.

【題目】 On Hoxton Street in East London there is a very special children’s writing and mentoring(輔導) center called the Ministry of Stories, which is fronted by its shop , Hoxton Street Monster(怪獸) Supplies, where you can expect to find monster food. The store raises funds for this very special program that fires children’s imagination.
The youth aged 8 to 18 enter the Ministry, through a secret door that is designed to open a world of opportunity by encouraging a love for writing. The organization believes that, “Writing increases self-respect, improves communication and can change lives.” That’s because writing allows children’s voices to be heard.
This year, the workshop is celebrating 10 years of helping children discover a love for writing through creative programs. Founded by Lucy Macnab, Ben Payne and best-selling author Nick Hornby, the organization works with around 1,000 children per year participating in schools, and community programs across Hackney, Islington, and Tower Hamlets. It now has over 400 volunteers and runs its program free of charge for the youth of the areas.
“Through a range of creative writing programs, and one-to-one mentoring, we aim to help young people find their own qualities that can be developed,” Macnab told The Telegraph. “We build confidence, self-respect, and communication skills in both workshops for schools and out of school writing clubs.”
One 10-year participant, Nmeso, said that the weekly after-school club he attends at the Ministry has helped him grow his imagination and improve his academic performance. In fact, he was able to move up a grade in school. What’s even more remarkable is that Nmeso has had a story he wrote published ── along with other writers in the program ──titled Andre Has a Hard Time .This is Nmeso’s success story.

【題目】 Brook wanted a dollhouse and some sugar cookies. So the 6-year-old asked Alexa to get them. Alex, a vice-activated home assistant powered "by artificial intelligence"(Al), made Brooke's wishes come true. A few days later, much to her parents' surprise, four pounds of cookies and a $170 dollhouse showed up. And that's not the end of the story. When a news anchor told Book's story on TV, Alexa devices in many listeners' homes woke up and tried to order dollhouses!
Alexa isn't the only Al willing to order. Apple HomePod has Siri, Google Home has its Assistant, and the upcoming Galaxy Home device will have Bixby. People who own these devices use them mainly for listening to music, checking the weather and setting timers. But many experts predict a boom in voice shopping in the near future. Is that a good thing?
Convenience is the main benefit of voice shopping. You can shout out an order as soon as you think of it, even if you're cooking, cleaning, or driving. In addition, people with disabilities who are unable to use a keyboard or mouse can shop without assistance.
But voice shopping has its downsides. Unwanted dollhouses aren't the biggest problem. It's usually very easy to cancel an order or return items. The thing that creeps some people out is that these assistants are always listening. They have to be able to respond when you want them. So they listen for "Alexa" or "OK Google" or another command. When they hear it, they start recording the conversation. Some have worried about what happens to these recordings. Should companies be allowed to use them to learn about people's shopping habits? Should police access them to solve a crime? And what if someone hacks the device? The CIA found a way to hack smart TVs to turn them into spies that listen all the time. Others could do the same with any smart device.
【1】The writer mentions Brook and Alex in the first paragraph to __________.
A.share an interesting experienceB.show Brook's eagerness for cookies
C.introduce the topic of voice shoppingD.show the functions of a new smart device
【2】What does the underlined phrase "creeps... out" in the last paragraph most probably mean?
A.Terrifies.B.Affects.
C.Impresses.D.Excites.
【3】According to the passage, what's the major disadvantage of voice shopping?
A.The return policy is complicated.
B.There are safety and privacy concerns.
C.Quality of the goods can't be guaranteed.
D.The device is not smart and reliable enough to process orders.

【題目】 They are probably the longest-standing and biggest rivals (對手) in international sport— Chinese badminton player Lin Dan, with his deadly smashes (扣球) and drop shots, and his Malaysian rival Lee Chong Wei, who is known for his spirit and determination.
Over the years, the two have competed with each other many times, and both have experienced victory and defeat. But Lin beat Lee the first two times they faced each other in the Olympic Games—in Beijing in 2008 and then in London in 2012.
And that was inadmissible for Lee. In fact, according to BadmintonBlaze.com, Lee once said that if he had the choice between winning an Olympic gold and beating Lin, he would absolutely choose victory over his old rival.
And he eventually did, at the 2016 Rio Games. When he beat Lin that day, Lee dropped to the floor, covered his face with his hands and looked around the stadium like a gold-medal moment although Lee eventually lost out in the final to another Chinese player, Chen Long.
All the years of trying to outdo each other have not only driven Lin and Lee to surpass (超越) themselves as players, but also developed a special friendship between the two.
They care for and encourage each other. They invited each other to their own weddings. And right before this year’s Malaysia Open, Lee, who wasn’t able to compete there on account of his nose cancer, wrote on social networking site Facebook, “My friend Lin Dan, you have my best wishes for this Malaysian Open. If I were to hope for a non-Malaysian to win the men’s singles title, I hope that it’s you my friend, my greatest rival.”
Lin and Lee are now pushing 36 and 37 respectively—ages by which most athletes would have retired—but they are planning to compete at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games, in the hope that they can play each other once again.
It’s as Badminton Association of Malaysia vice president David Wee once said of the two, “they bring out the best in each other”.
【1】Which phrase can best describe their relationship?
A.Familiar strangers.B.Friends and enemies.
C.Colleagues and rivals.D.Teammates and competitors.
【2】What does the underlined word “inadmissible” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Unacceptable.B.Inescapable.
C.Unexpected.D.Impossible.
【3】What did Lee’s reaction at the 2016 Rio Games indicate?
A.He mistakenly believed he had won the gold medal.
B.He was confident to defeat Lin Dan next time.
C.He didn’t care about the Olympic gold medals.
D.He took his victory over Lin most seriously.
【4】What can we learn from the passage?
A.Lin ranks second to Lee in the world badminton.
B.Lin is sure to compete against Lee at the 2020 Olympics.
C.Lee has no intention to quit playing badminton in spite of his nose cancer.
D.Lee wished Lin to win the men’s singles title in this year’s Malaysia Open.
