这篇短文给我们介绍了中国著名的科学家袁隆平教授，他发展的杂交水稻技术，极大地提高了粮食产量，他一心只做研究，是中国最伟大的人物之一。
16．句意：中国的一个科学家曾经有一个梦想。dream 梦想；idea想法，主意；thought想法；will意愿。根据上句话Every scientist has a childhood dream可知，每个科学家都有一个童年时代的梦想，这里引出这篇短文介绍的袁隆平的梦想，故应选A。
17．句意：这个人就是袁隆平，出生在1930年。where 在哪里；whom谁，引导定语从句，在从句中做宾语；which引导定语从句，先行词是物；who引导定语从句，在从句中做主语和宾语。这里是一个非限制性的定语从句，先行词是袁隆平，并且从句中缺少的是主语，故选D。
18．句意：在1973年，和另一个人一起，他发展了杂交水稻。success成功，名词；succeeded 成功，是动词的过去式形式；successfully成功地，副词；successful成功的，形容词。这句话中缺少的是谓语动词，故应选B。
19．句意：在1980年，杂交水稻的技术被引进到美国。given 是give的过去分词，给；grown 是grow的过去分词，成长，生长；showed 展示，表明；introduced介绍，引进。根据句意可知，这句话的主语是technology，技术，故应该是被引进到美国，故应选D。
20．句意：因为袁教授的努力工作，现在中国每年生产足够的水稻养活她的人民。Because of因为，后面跟名词或者动名词形式；Because因为，是连词，引导原因状语从句；In order to为了，后面跟动词原形；Instead of代替，而不是，后面跟名词或者动名词形式。根据句意可知，这里表示的是原因，并且空后是名词短语，故应选A。
21．句意：因为袁教授的努力工作，现在中国每年生产足够的水稻来养活她的人民。look after 照顾；feed 喂养；send 发送；fed是feed的过去式。根据句意可知，这里说的是中国能生产足够的水稻来养活人们，并且空前是动词不定式的符号to，故这里用原形，选B。
22．句意：在他的空闲时间，他喜欢拉小提琴和听音乐。a和an都是不定冠词，修饰可数名词单数形式，表示泛指一个；the是定冠词，表示特指。这里play the violin是固定短语，在乐器的前面必须加定冠词。故选D。
23．句意：每天晚上，在睡觉之前，他读半个小时的书。on在…上面，或用于具体某一天的前面； in 泛指在上午、下午或晚上，在年代、月份、季节的前面；for后面跟一段时间； to到…。空后面half an hour是一段时间，故应选C。
24．句意：人们认为袁教授是中国最伟大的人物之一，因为他除了他的研究什么都不关心。greatest 最伟大的；richest 最富有的；cleverest 最聪明的；most careful最细心的。根据文意可知，袁隆平的杂交水稻技术大大提高了粮食产量，他对我们国家的贡献是巨大的，因此他是最伟大的人物之一。故选A。
25．句意：人们认为袁教授是中国最伟大的人物之一，因为他除了他的研究什么都不关心。everything每件事；anything任何事，常用于否定句或者疑问句中；nothing没有什么事；something一些事，某事，用于肯定句中。nothing …but除了…什么也没有，这句话是说袁隆平教授只关心他的研究。故应选C。
点睛：这篇短文是一篇记叙文，讲述了中国伟大的科学家袁隆平教授。短文内容比较简单，容易理解。完形填空题是综合性比较强的一个题目，它既考查学生的阅读理解能力，又考查学生英语词汇、短语的运用能力。做题时，应分成三个步骤。首先通读全文，掌握大意和作者的写作意图；接下来逐一做题，逐一上下文的逻辑关系和空前后的搭配；最后再读短文，验证答案。完形填空以考查实词的用法为主，如名词、动词、形容词和副词；以考查虚词的用法为辅。这个题目中第1小题、第3小题、第4小题、第6小题和第10小题考查的是实词的用法，其他题目考查虚词的用法。第1小题我们可以根据短文的第一句话得到答案；第2小题、第5小题、第6小题、第8小题考查的都是英语中一些固定的搭配和习惯用法，如who引导的定语从句，because 和because of的区别，介词in, on for表示时间的时候的区别等等。这些知识点在平时的英语学习中要注意积累，并在具体情境中熟练运用。

【分析】
这篇短文介绍的是如何和一个群体的人成为朋友，作者分成四个步骤给我们提出了建议。
31．词义猜测题。根据下文的结构First, Next, Then, Finally可知，这里介绍的是如何和一个群体的人交朋友，作者是分成了四个步骤，因此step的意思是步骤，故应选B。
32．细节理解题。根据短文第二段中If people of the group are shy, never ask them “Why don’t you talk ” “Why are you quiet ” or “Why do you look shy ” They don’t like such questions可知，如果这个群体中的人比较害羞，那么不要问“你为什么不说话？”、“你为什么害羞？”、“你为什么看起来内向”等这样的问题，所以A、B和C三个选项都不对。D选项谈论的是天气，这是一个跟陌生人开始聊天的一个比较适合的问题，故应选D。
33．细节理解题。根据短文最后一段中For example, you can talk with them about the weather, the news, their hobbies or their school life.可知，在跟别人聊天的时候，你要找到合适的话题，如你可以讨论天气、新闻、他们的爱好或者他们的学校生活，由此可知A、B和C三个选项都是合适的话题，D选项是年龄，年龄是一个隐私话题，不要问别人的年龄，故应选D。
34．细节理解题。短文从第二段开始介绍了如何跟一个群体的人成为朋友，每一段的开头都有表示先后顺序的副词，如First, Next, Then 和Finally。因此我们可以从这几个词中找到做题的线索，首先是了解他们是怎样的一个群体，接下来要知道每个群体都是不同的，然后是要尽力成为一个外向的人，最后要找到合适的话题。因此应选B。
35．主旨大意题。短文第一段点明了文章的中心，根据Do you know how to make friends with a group of people Let me tell you the steps about making friends with the group可知，文章中作者是告诉我们如何和一个群体的人成为朋友，故应选C。
点睛：这篇短文就如何和一个群体的人交朋友给了我们一些建议。短文的结构非常清楚，是一个总分结构，第一段点明主题，从第二段开始每段的开头都有表示先后顺序的副词，如First, Next, Then, Finally等，因此理解文意是不难的。后面题目的设置包括词义猜测、细节理解和主旨大意，考查形式比较多样。词义猜测题我们需要结合语境去理解，划线单词出现在短文的第一段，是点明文章主题的句子，所以根据下文的结构可知，作者分成四步给我们提了建议，所以step是步骤的意思。再如第5小题，选择最好的题目应该是能概括文章主题的，短文的第一段就是文章的主题，所以根据短文的前两句话我们就可以知道答案应选C。
