The bell rang.Jada sighed,slowly moved from the lockers where she had been leaning,and headed down the hall to her chemistry class.Honors Chemistry!Jada couldn't believe that her mom was making her take the class because Jada's counselor had said that she had real talent in science.
Jada had to admit that she liked science and that last year's class was a breeze,but come on,Honors Chemistry？She wouldn't know anyone in the class,and they probably wouldn't know anyone like her.
The good thing about being late is that it shortened the period a bit.The bad thing is that it made her seem like she was making a grand entrance.To make matters worse,the only two seats left in class were at the lab table at the very front of the room.
Jada held her breath and walked in.Everyone's eyes were on her.She just knew it.They were staring at her coal black hair （freshly dyed），her black lipstick,her black fingernail polish,and her thrift-store black leather jacket.All she saw were polo shirts and khaki pants.
This can't get any worse,Jada thought.But at least she didn't get shouted at by the teacher.He was too busy talking to a new kid,a HUGE new kid,who had to weigh at least 250 pounds.A football player,probably.She hated football players.They thought they were so great. That group of jocks that hung out by the cafeteria always made fun of her.
The new kid made his way over to her table with his head down.He had to squeeze into the seat,and his legs wouldn't fit under the lab table.He shot Jada a glance and turned red.
Mr.Martin,the teacher,began class with this announcement： "Okay,everyone.1 know most of you know each other from last year's Honors Physical Science class." Jada sighed loudly."But just take a minute and introduce yourself to the person sitting at your table.You'll be partners.You'll be working closely together all year."
Jada rolled her eyes and stared straight ahead.Then she heard a surprisingly soft voice from next to her. "Hi,I'm Robert.I'm new here."...
4. What can you learn about Jada from the first two paragraphs？ ______
A. She found she didn't like science as she thought.
B. She was angry that her mother made her go to school.
C. She wasn't willing to take the Honors Chemistry class.

5. The writer described Jada's appearance in paragraph 4 in order to ______ .
A. reveal how different she was from her classmates
B. explain why she was late for school that morning
C. imply that she felt sorry for making a grand entrance
D. give readers a general impression of science students
6. In paragraph 5，the phrase "that group of jocks" refers to ______ .
A. the new kid B. football players
C. Jada's teacher D. Jada's classmates

C. He liked sports. D. He looked sad.
C
For millions of years,Arctic sea ice has expanded and shrunk in a rhythmic dance with the summer sun.Humans evolved in this icy world,and civilization relied on it for climatic,ecological and political stability.But now the world comes ever closer to a future without ice.The National Snow and Ice Data Center reported that 2019's minimum arctic sea ice extent was the second lowest on record.Arctic summers could become mostly ice-free in 30 years,and possibly sooner if current trends continue.As the northern sea ice declines,the world must unite to preserve what remains of the Arctic.
Although most people have never seen the sea ice,its effects are never far away.By reflecting sunlight,Arctic ice acts as Earth's air conditioner.Once dark water replaces brilliant ice,Earth could warm substantially,equivalent to the warming caused by the additional release of a trillion tons of carbon dioxide（CO）into the atmosphere and declining sea ice threatens wildlife,from the polar bear to algae that grow beneath the sea ice,supporting the large amount of marine life.
To avoid the consequences the scientific community should advocate not just for lowering greenhouse gas emissions,but also for protecting the Arctic from exploitation.The Antarctic shows the way.In the 1950s,countries raced to claim the Antarctic continent for resources and military installations.Enter the scientists.The 1957-1958 International Geophysical Year brought together scientists from competing countries to study Antarctica,and countries temporarily suspended their territorial disputes（争议）.In 1959，12 countries signed the Antarctic Treaty to preserve the continent for peaceful scientific discovery rather than territorial and military gain.
Sixty years later,we must now save the Arctic.A new Marine Arctic Peace Sanctuary（MAPS）Treaty would protect the Arctic Ocean as a scientific preserve for peaceful purposes only.Similar to Antarctica,MAPS would prohibit resource exploitation,commercial fishing and shipping,and military exercises.So far,only 2 non-Arctic countries have signed MAPS；97 more need to sign onto enact it into law.Scientists can help—just as they did for the Antarctic—by giving statements of support,asking scientific organizations to endorse（支持）the treaty,communicating the importance of protecting the arctic to the public and policy-makers,and above all,by convincing national leaders to sign the treaty.In particular,Arctic nations must agree that recognizing the arctic as an international preserve is better than fighting over it.In 2018，these countries successfully negotiated a 16-year moratorium on commercial fishing in the Arctic high seas,demonstrating that such agreements are possible.
Humans have only ever lived in a world topped by ice.Can we now work together to protect Arctic ecosystems,keep the northern peace,and allow the sea ice to return？
8. What can be inferred from the passage？ ______
A. Wildlife relies on sea ice for food and water.
B. The Arctic would be ice-free in 30 years.
C. Sea ice slows down the global warming.
D. The melting of sea ice releases CO2.
9. The Antarctic is mentioned in the passage in order to ______ .
A. remind readers of the past of the Antarctic
B. propose a feasible approach for the Arctic
C. stress the importance of preserving sea ice
D. recall how the Antarctic Treaty came into being
10. The word "moratorium" （in paragraph 4）is closest in meaning to ______ .
A. battle B. ban C. memo D. protection
11. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage？ ______
A. Antarctic：a Successful Comeback？
B. Sea Ice and Global Warming
C. Arctic：the Earth's Future
D. Life Without Ice？
D
When it comes to being fit and healthy,we're often reminded to aim to walk 10，000 steps per day.This can annoy many,especially when we're busy with work and other commitments---and yet where did this number actually come from？
The 10，000 steps a day target seems to have come about from a trade name pedometer sold in 1965 by Yamasa Clock in Japan.The device was called "Manpo-kei"，which translates to "10，000 steps meter".This was a marketing tool for the device and has seemed to have stuck across the world as the daily step target.It's even included in daily activity targets by popular smartwatches,such as Fitbit.
Research has since investigated the 10，000 steps a day target.But while some research has shown health benefits at 10，000 steps,recent research from Harvard Medical School has shown that,on average,around 4，400 steps a day is enough to significantly lower the risk of death in women.This was when compared to only walking around 2，700 steps daily.The more steps people walked,the lower their risk of dying was,before leveling off at around 7，500 steps a day.No additional benefits were seen with more steps.Although it's uncertain whether similar results would be seen in men,it's one example of how moving a little bit more daily can improve health and lower risk of death.
Recent research at the University of Texas has also demonstrated that if you're walking fewer than 5，000 steps a day,your body is less able to metabolize（新陈代谢）fat the following day.A buildup of fat in the body can also increase a person's likelihood of developing cardiovascular disease and diabetes.This is further supported by previous research which shows people who walked less than 4，000 steps a day could not change this decreased fat metabolism.
If you want to increase how many steps you get daily,or simply want to move more,one easy way includes walking to work if possible,or taking part of an online exercise program if you're working from home.Meeting with friends for a walk --- rather than in a cafe or pub --- can also be useful.
12. What does the author think of the 10，000 steps per day？ ______
A. It is an upsetting target to achieve.
B. It is likely to go out of style quickly.
C. It is a rising tendency of mental health.
D. It is effective in reducing pressure on work.
13. What does research from the Harvard Medical School suggest about the target？ ______
A. It matters as much as 7500 steps a day.
B. The more steps,the lower risk of death.
C. A bit more than the target can improve health.
D. About half that target appears to be beneficial.
14. What does the fourth paragraph mainly tell us？ ______
A. Absence of previous research.
B. Recent findings of fat buildup.
C. Problems of less daily walking.
D. Possible causes of physical challenges.
15. Which of the following is one of the suggested ways according to the passage？ ______
A. Working at home.
B. Treating friends in a cafe or pub.
C. Driving lo work.
D. Signing up for online exercise programs.
Mold is unpleasant because of how it looks and smells.Some people have the habit of removing mold from food in order to consume the unaffected rest. (1)
Removing the moldy parts doesn't guarantee that the toxins（毒素）present in the product will be removed completely.Therefore,they can cause illness or food poisoning.Only hard and dry food scan be consumed once the moldy part has been removed.Therefore,you should completely throwaway soft and moist foods in this situation. (2) We can't afford to ignore the presence of molds on the surface and inside products.However it's okay to eat cured meat products,firm fruits,and vegetables.
(3) Many of these have to do with the consumption of raw foods that haven't undergone the appropriate processes.For example,eat some fruits without washing them thoroughly.Some chemicals are often added to them while they are being grown or processed.Besides,consuming raw or undercooked white fish,without prior freezing,also increases the risk of contamination（污染）with anisakis. (4) Experts usually recommend unfreezing products in the refrigerator.This prevents temperatures that are favorable for bacterial growth.
In addition,you must take care when handling raw foods and cooked foods to avoid cross-contamination.Cross-contamination can occur through indirect spread of microorganisms by equipment,food handlers,cook facilities or surfaces. (5) Microorganisms could pass from one to the other and certain microorganisms cause most types of food poisoning.After entering the body,these living things release poisons that make people sick.
A.These problems exist everywhere.
B.There are other dangerous situations
C.You should never use the same tools.
D.Food unfreezing processes are a critical point.
E.Therefore,many think it can be a common problem.
F.However,many are unaware this could lead to illness.
G.You should never eat bread that have developed mold.
16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
17. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
18. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
19. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G

37. 假定你是李华，由于新冠病毒（COVID-19/novel coronavirus）爆发，你校决定推迟开学，请你给回国度假的留学生Jack写封邮件，告知此事．内容包括：
1．告知推迟开学；
2．介绍疫情；
3．开学日期另行通知．
注意：1．词数100左右；
2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯．
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
COVID-19 made "social distance" a big problem for 2020 and forced us to adapt in new and often creative ways.My super-social teenage daughters adapted by talking to their friends on video chat；school campuses closed but adapted with online classes.
However,social distance with my parents added an extra challenge.We'd recently moved them （very old） into the house across the street from us.It was wonderful to have them so close,but once COVID-19 arrived,everything changed.
How could we care for and interact with my parents but keep social distance at the same time？I could buy their groceries,and leave them on their doorstep --- that would be easy.But meeting their social needs was another matter.They did not use computers or smartphones,so there had to be another way to connect with them.After much thought,my daughters decided we could reach out with beautiful cards,letters and pictures ...and one of our dogs could deliver them!
We'd read in the news that although animals could be carriers of the virus,the likelihood was low,so we felt excited about the prospect of our new delivery method.The question was,which dog was best suited for the job？We considered each one carefully：Tootsie,Stevie or Stuffy.we decided to give Tootsie the first shot at it.We tied a small package loosely over her head and sent her toward my parents' door.Holding our breath,we watched as she approached the house.
Suddenly,she turned left,made a beeline for a large dirt patch（小块土地），shook the package from her neck,and started to bury it,but stopped by our shouts of dismay.
Little Stevie was up next.He had more focus；surely he could do the job.With the package affixed to his back,we set him on course.Stevie looked strong going in.He ran toward the door and nearly made it,but then a lizard（蜥蜴）ran in front of him.Chasing lizards is Stevie's favorite pastime,so we knew all bets were off.Sure enough,Stevie chased that lizard all over the yard and then went running down the street.I watched with disappointment as my daughters disappeared after him.
Paragraph 1：
Late,we were ready for a final go---Stuffy.__________.
Paragraph 2：
Stuffy received treats （healthy carrots） and seemed truly proud of himself.__________.

36.【答案】
（1）would be offered.考查动词的时态语态。句意：如果他/她能想出一个切实可行的、可持续的方法来消除空气中的温室气体，将获得2500万美元的奖励。根据时间状语Ten years ago可知，本段陈述过去发生的事，if引导的条件状语从句中用了一般过去时，主句应使用过去将来时；主语A reward of S25 million和动词offer之间为为被动关系，所以用过去将来时的被动语态。故填would be offered。
（2）powerful.考查形容词。句意：他认为这样的创新很快就会实现，像他这样有权势的人会一下子实施一个自上而下的解决方案。设空处修饰修饰名词people,应用形容词powerful作定语。故填powerful。
（3）saving.考查动名词。句意：布兰森相信每个人都可以参与拯救人类，而不仅仅是少数超级英雄的任务。介词in后面需加动名词作宾语。故填saving。
（4）that.考查强调句。句意：正是这种精神启发了保罗 霍肯和一群研究人员创作了《 Drawdowns》一书。本句中去掉It was及设空处句子结构仍然完整，应为强调句型。强调句的基本句型是"It be+被强调的部分+that（强调人可用who）+句子其他部分"，此处对主语the spirit进行强调，故填that。
（5）impossible.考查形容词。句意：《 Drawdowns》侧重于小而实际的步骤，而不是不可能的解决方案。设空处修饰名词solutions,应用形容词作定语，结合句意可知，此处表示"不可能的"。故填impossible。
（6）to.考查介词。句意：霍肯的研究人员收集了数据、信息和实践知识，创造了一部解决气候风险的百科全书。名词solutions后面通常与介词to搭配，意为"…的解决办法"。故填to。
（7）looks.考查动词时态和主一致。句意：这本书的一个章节"即将到来的吸引力"着眼于我们即将掌握的解决方案，它们很可能在不久的将来成为有用的解决方案。设空处作谓语，本句陈述客观事实，应用一般现在时，主语One section of the book是单数意义，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填looks。
（8）to make.考查动词不定式。句意：就像这本书里说的，我们不能仅仅建造一台大型设备来净化空气。此处需用动词不定式作目的状语。故填to make。
（9）contributions.考查名词。句意：我们可以做一些小小的贡献，比如减少食物浪费，把灯泡换成LED，安装太阳能电池板等等。设空处作动词make的宾语，空处需填名词contributions。contribution为可数名词，此处表示泛指，且没有冠词限定，所以用名词复数形式。故填contributions。
（10）an.考查冠词。句意：我们生活在一个相互联系的世界，所以我们需要考虑社区，考虑居住在同一个星球上的许多个人的共同利益。world前有形容词interconnected修饰，应为可数名词，此处表示泛指，需用不定冠词修饰，interconnected是以元音音素开头的单词，所以前面加不定冠词an。故填an。
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了由保罗 霍肯和他的研究人员写的名叫《 Drawdowns》的这本书。
语法填空考查学生英语综合知识的运用，做题时要首先明确短文大意，从词语搭配，固定句型，语法，时态等方面综合考虑，结合上下文语境找出正确答案。
37.【答案】Dear Jack,
As you may know, the novel coronarvius outbreak has been a serious threat to public health.【高分句型一】 In view of the situation, the opening of our school will be delayed until further notice. （告知推迟开学）

38.【答案】Paragraph 1：
Late,we were ready for a final go---Stuffy..The vet had recently told us that he needed to go on a diet.He was our last choice.But Stuffy loved to chase his ball,so maybe there was hope.We tied him up with the package and walked him across the street.【高分句型一】My daughter threw a ball toward my parents' front door,and Stuffy bounded along the path.My parents opened their door just as Stuffy reached the threshold,and they successfully removed the package from his back as we all cheered and jumped up and down for Stuffy.Mission accomplished!（训练小狗给父母送东西的经过）
Paragraph 2：
Stuffy received treats （healthy carrots） and seemed truly proud of himself.He did well and we enjoyed it so much that he continued to deliver cards,pictures and little items to my parents every day.We call him our ding dong Doggy,even though we have yet to teach him to ring the doorbell.【高分句型二】（小狗顺利的完成了这项任务）

For millions of years,Arctic sea ice has expanded and shrunk in a rhythmic dance with the summer sun.Humans evolved in this icy world,and civilization relied on it for climatic,ecological and political stability.But now the world comes ever closer to a future without ice.The National Snow and Ice Data Center reported that 2019's minimum arctic sea ice extent was the second lowest on record.Arctic summers could become mostly ice-free in 30 years,and possibly sooner if current trends continue.As the northern sea ice declines,the world must unite to preserve what remains of the Arctic.
Although most people have never seen the sea ice,its effects are never far away.By reflecting sunlight,Arctic ice acts as Earth's air conditioner.Once dark water replaces brilliant ice,Earth could warm substantially,equivalent to the warming caused by the additional release of a trillion tons of carbon dioxide（CO）into the atmosphere and declining sea ice threatens wildlife,from the polar bear to algae that grow beneath the sea ice,supporting the large amount of marine life.
To avoid the consequences the scientific community should advocate not just for lowering greenhouse gas emissions,but also for protecting the Arctic from exploitation.The Antarctic shows the way.In the 1950s,countries raced to claim the Antarctic continent for resources and military installations.Enter the scientists.The 1957-1958 International Geophysical Year brought together scientists from competing countries to study Antarctica,and countries temporarily suspended their territorial disputes（争议）.In 1959，12 countries signed the Antarctic Treaty to preserve the continent for peaceful scientific discovery rather than territorial and military gain.
Sixty years later,we must now save the Arctic.A new Marine Arctic Peace Sanctuary（MAPS）Treaty would protect the Arctic Ocean as a scientific preserve for peaceful purposes only.Similar to Antarctica,MAPS would prohibit resource exploitation,commercial fishing and shipping,and military exercises.So far,only 2 non-Arctic countries have signed MAPS；97 more need to sign onto enact it into law.Scientists can help—just as they did for the Antarctic—by giving statements of support,asking scientific organizations to endorse（支持）the treaty,communicating the importance of protecting the arctic to the public and policy-makers,and above all,by convincing national leaders to sign the treaty.In particular,Arctic nations must agree that recognizing the arctic as an international preserve is better than fighting over it.In 2018，these countries successfully negotiated a 16-year moratorium on commercial fishing in the Arctic high seas,demonstrating that such agreements are possible.
Humans have only ever lived in a world topped by ice.Can we now work together to protect Arctic ecosystems,keep the northern peace,and allow the sea ice to return？

When it comes to being fit and healthy,we're often reminded to aim to walk 10，000 steps per day.This can annoy many,especially when we're busy with work and other commitments---and yet where did this number actually come from？
The 10，000 steps a day target seems to have come about from a trade name pedometer sold in 1965 by Yamasa Clock in Japan.The device was called "Manpo-kei"，which translates to "10，000 steps meter".This was a marketing tool for the device and has seemed to have stuck across the world as the daily step target.It's even included in daily activity targets by popular smartwatches,such as Fitbit.
Research has since investigated the 10，000 steps a day target.But while some research has shown health benefits at 10，000 steps,recent research from Harvard Medical School has shown that,on average,around 4，400 steps a day is enough to significantly lower the risk of death in women.This was when compared to only walking around 2，700 steps daily.The more steps people walked,the lower their risk of dying was,before leveling off at around 7，500 steps a day.No additional benefits were seen with more steps.Although it's uncertain whether similar results would be seen in men,it's one example of how moving a little bit more daily can improve health and lower risk of death.
Recent research at the University of Texas has also demonstrated that if you're walking fewer than 5，000 steps a day,your body is less able to metabolize（新陈代谢）fat the following day.A buildup of fat in the body can also increase a person's likelihood of developing cardiovascular disease and diabetes.This is further supported by previous research which shows people who walked less than 4，000 steps a day could not change this decreased fat metabolism.
If you want to increase how many steps you get daily,or simply want to move more,one easy way includes walking to work if possible,or taking part of an online exercise program if you're working from home.Meeting with friends for a walk --- rather than in a cafe or pub --- can also be useful.
12. What does the author think of the 10，000 steps per day？ ______
A. It is an upsetting target to achieve.
B. It is likely to go out of style quickly.
C. It is a rising tendency of mental health.
D. It is effective in reducing pressure on work.
13. What does research from the Harvard Medical School suggest about the target？ ______
A. It matters as much as 7500 steps a day.
B. The more steps,the lower risk of death.
C. A bit more than the target can improve health.
D. About half that target appears to be beneficial.
14. What does the fourth paragraph mainly tell us？ ______
A. Absence of previous research.
B. Recent findings of fat buildup.
C. Problems of less daily walking.
D. Possible causes of physical challenges.
15. Which of the following is one of the suggested ways according to the passage？ ______
A. Working at home.
B. Treating friends in a cafe or pub.
C. Driving lo work.
D. Signing up for online exercise programs.
Mold is unpleasant because of how it looks and smells.Some people have the habit of removing mold from food in order to consume the unaffected rest. (1)
Removing the moldy parts doesn't guarantee that the toxins（毒素）present in the product will be removed completely.Therefore,they can cause illness or food poisoning.Only hard and dry food scan be consumed once the moldy part has been removed.Therefore,you should completely throwaway soft and moist foods in this situation. (2) We can't afford to ignore the presence of molds on the surface and inside products.However it's okay to eat cured meat products,firm fruits,and vegetables.
(3) Many of these have to do with the consumption of raw foods that haven't undergone the appropriate processes.For example,eat some fruits without washing them thoroughly.Some chemicals are often added to them while they are being grown or processed.Besides,consuming raw or undercooked white fish,without prior freezing,also increases the risk of contamination（污染）with anisakis. (4) Experts usually recommend unfreezing products in the refrigerator.This prevents temperatures that are favorable for bacterial growth.
In addition,you must take care when handling raw foods and cooked foods to avoid cross-contamination.Cross-contamination can occur through indirect spread of microorganisms by equipment,food handlers,cook facilities or surfaces. (5) Microorganisms could pass from one to the other and certain microorganisms cause most types of food poisoning.After entering the body,these living things release poisons that make people sick.
A.These problems exist everywhere.
B.There are other dangerous situations
C.You should never use the same tools.
D.Food unfreezing processes are a critical point.
E.Therefore,many think it can be a common problem.
F.However,many are unaware this could lead to illness.
G.You should never eat bread that have developed mold.

1．告知推迟开学；
2．介绍疫情；
3．开学日期另行通知．
注意：1．词数100左右；
2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯．
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
COVID-19 made "social distance" a big problem for 2020 and forced us to adapt in new and often creative ways.My super-social teenage daughters adapted by talking to their friends on video chat；school campuses closed but adapted with online classes.
However,social distance with my parents added an extra challenge.We'd recently moved them （very old） into the house across the street from us.It was wonderful to have them so close,but once COVID-19 arrived,everything changed.
How could we care for and interact with my parents but keep social distance at the same time？I could buy their groceries,and leave them on their doorstep --- that would be easy.But meeting their social needs was another matter.They did not use computers or smartphones,so there had to be another way to connect with them.After much thought,my daughters decided we could reach out with beautiful cards,letters and pictures ...and one of our dogs could deliver them!
We'd read in the news that although animals could be carriers of the virus,the likelihood was low,so we felt excited about the prospect of our new delivery method.The question was,which dog was best suited for the job？We considered each one carefully：Tootsie,Stevie or Stuffy.we decided to give Tootsie the first shot at it.We tied a small package loosely over her head and sent her toward my parents' door.Holding our breath,we watched as she approached the house.
Suddenly,she turned left,made a beeline for a large dirt patch（小块土地），shook the package from her neck,and started to bury it,but stopped by our shouts of dismay.
Little Stevie was up next.He had more focus；surely he could do the job.With the package affixed to his back,we set him on course.Stevie looked strong going in.He ran toward the door and nearly made it,but then a lizard（蜥蜴）ran in front of him.Chasing lizards is Stevie's favorite pastime,so we knew all bets were off.Sure enough,Stevie chased that lizard all over the yard and then went running down the street.I watched with disappointment as my daughters disappeared after him.
Paragraph 1：
Late,we were ready for a final go---Stuffy.__________.
Paragraph 2：
Stuffy received treats （healthy carrots） and seemed truly proud of himself.__________.

36.【答案】
（1）would be offered.考查动词的时态语态。句意：如果他/她能想出一个切实可行的、可持续的方法来消除空气中的温室气体，将获得2500万美元的奖励。根据时间状语Ten years ago可知，本段陈述过去发生的事，if引导的条件状语从句中用了一般过去时，主句应使用过去将来时；主语A reward of S25 million和动词offer之间为为被动关系，所以用过去将来时的被动语态。故填would be offered。
（2）powerful.考查形容词。句意：他认为这样的创新很快就会实现，像他这样有权势的人会一下子实施一个自上而下的解决方案。设空处修饰修饰名词people,应用形容词powerful作定语。故填powerful。
（3）saving.考查动名词。句意：布兰森相信每个人都可以参与拯救人类，而不仅仅是少数超级英雄的任务。介词in后面需加动名词作宾语。故填saving。
（4）that.考查强调句。句意：正是这种精神启发了保罗 霍肯和一群研究人员创作了《 Drawdowns》一书。本句中去掉It was及设空处句子结构仍然完整，应为强调句型。强调句的基本句型是"It be+被强调的部分+that（强调人可用who）+句子其他部分"，此处对主语the spirit进行强调，故填that。
（5）impossible.考查形容词。句意：《 Drawdowns》侧重于小而实际的步骤，而不是不可能的解决方案。设空处修饰名词solutions,应用形容词作定语，结合句意可知，此处表示"不可能的"。故填impossible。
（6）to.考查介词。句意：霍肯的研究人员收集了数据、信息和实践知识，创造了一部解决气候风险的百科全书。名词solutions后面通常与介词to搭配，意为"…的解决办法"。故填to。
（7）looks.考查动词时态和主一致。句意：这本书的一个章节"即将到来的吸引力"着眼于我们即将掌握的解决方案，它们很可能在不久的将来成为有用的解决方案。设空处作谓语，本句陈述客观事实，应用一般现在时，主语One section of the book是单数意义，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填looks。
（8）to make.考查动词不定式。句意：就像这本书里说的，我们不能仅仅建造一台大型设备来净化空气。此处需用动词不定式作目的状语。故填to make。
（9）contributions.考查名词。句意：我们可以做一些小小的贡献，比如减少食物浪费，把灯泡换成LED，安装太阳能电池板等等。设空处作动词make的宾语，空处需填名词contributions。contribution为可数名词，此处表示泛指，且没有冠词限定，所以用名词复数形式。故填contributions。
（10）an.考查冠词。句意：我们生活在一个相互联系的世界，所以我们需要考虑社区，考虑居住在同一个星球上的许多个人的共同利益。world前有形容词interconnected修饰，应为可数名词，此处表示泛指，需用不定冠词修饰，interconnected是以元音音素开头的单词，所以前面加不定冠词an。故填an。
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了由保罗 霍肯和他的研究人员写的名叫《 Drawdowns》的这本书。
语法填空考查学生英语综合知识的运用，做题时要首先明确短文大意，从词语搭配，固定句型，语法，时态等方面综合考虑，结合上下文语境找出正确答案。
