in

social

While

was

heard

a

七、阅读理解
As
a
student,
I
was
most
afraid
to
answer
questions
in
class,
and
I
found
that
the
students
around
were
just
like
me.
At
the
beginning
of
each
class,
when
the
teacher
asked
a
question,
I
always
lowered
my
head
because
I
was
afraid
that
the
teacher
saw
me.
　　
One
day,
in
a
foreign
language
class,
Mr.
Black
gave
us
a
lesson.
He
wanted
us
to
be
active
in
class,
so
he
asked
us
some
questions,
but
no
one
answered.
"Let
me
tell
you
a
story
first,"
he
said."When
I
came
to
the
United
States
to
study,
the
university
often
invited
famous
people
to
make
speeches.
Before
the
beginning
of
every
speech,
I
found
an
interesting
thing.
The
students
around
me
always
took
a
card
folded
in
half,
wrote
their
names
in
bold(粗体)with
the
most
eye-catching
color,
and
then
placed
the
cardboard
on
the
seat.
So
when
the
speaker
needed
the
answers
from
the
students,
he
could
see
and
call
a
listener's
name
directly."
　　
"I
couldn't
understand
that.
My
classmate
told
me
the
speakers
were
all
top
people,
who
meant
chances.
When
your
answer
was
to
his
surprise,
it
meant
he
might
give
you
more
chances.
In
fact,
I
really
saw
a
few
students
got
great
chances
because
of
that."
　　
After
listening
to
the
story,
I
understood
that
the
chance
will
not
find
you
itself.
You
must
show
yourself
all
the
time
so
that
you
can
find
a
chance
on
the
card.

参考答案
一、词汇运用
(A)根据句意及汉语提示写出单词
1.private　句意:这是私人谈话。请不要来听。private是形容词,意为"私人的"。
2.scores/grades　score/grade在这里是可数名词,意为"得分",get
good
scores/grades"获得好成绩"。
3.interview　句意:明天早上他们将要采访一位伟大的科学家。be
going
to
do
sth."将要做某事",空处使用动词原形。
4.background　"the+名词+of"表示"……的……",为固定用法。
5.European　句意:当你想到威尼斯时,它会让你脑中想起了其他欧洲城市吗?European"欧洲的"。
(B)用所给单词的适当形式填空
6.silent　keep
silent"保持安静",为固定搭配。
7.Asian　句意:杭州将是继北京和广州之后第三个举办亚运会的中国城市。分析句子结构可知,空处应用形容词修饰名词Games。
8.British　句意:英国人经常通过聊天气来开始他们的谈话。Britain"英国",是名词。空处修饰people,应用形容词British,表示"英国的"。
9.dare　句意:这个小女孩很害羞不敢问问题。此处dare为实义动词,表示"敢于,胆敢",空前有助动词doesn't,空处应用动词原形。
10.requires　句意:我们都知道学习一门外语需要时间和努力。本句为含有宾语从句的主从复合句,从句的主语为动名词短语,主句为一般现在时,根据句意可知从句也应使用一般现在时,故填requires。
二、单项填空
1.C　根据题干中的"和小组一起学英语是一种好方法"和"的确如此"可知,此处表示"我发现它对改善我们的发音是有帮助的",故所缺的词是helpful。
2.A　humorous"幽默的,滑稽的";challenging"挑战性的";dangerous"危险的";surprising"令人惊讶的"。根据题干中的"我忍不住大笑"可推断,符合题意的词是humorous。

in"上交";deal
with
"处理";look
up
"查阅";clean
up"收拾干净"。联系答语可知,此处指"如何处理旧衣服"。　
4.B　
句意:吉娜过去和她父母一起住在乡下,但现在她习惯于和同学们住在学校了。be
used
to
doing
sth."习惯于做某事",为固定搭配。
5.C　句意:图书馆里有很多书,且它们的数量正在增加。第一空为there
be句型,a
number
of
books表示复数概念,故应用are;"the
number
of+可数名词复数或代词"作主语,谓语动词应用单数形式。
