My neighbor has a beautiful lawn. He hates to see even one weed(野草)in it. I understand his feelings but accept a little more of a natural look. Every year, the spring rains caused weeds to appear where they were not planted, especially in the lawn. He then starts to mix up all his different poisons in his garage. There is one weed killer for killing weeds in paths, another for killing weeds in flower beds, another for killing grass in flower beds and yet another for killing weeds in grass.
One day when I got home from work, he was killing the dandelions(蒲公英) growing at the side of my house. “ I'm sure that you will be happy with me killing these weeds for you,” he said.
Knowing he meant well, I said thanks to him. However, deep inside, I felt saddened. I happen to like dandelions. For me, even in something as simple as a dandelion, there is art. In fact, there is even poetry in a dandelion!
Dandelions can be used for many different purposes. They certainly do grow where nothing else does, like along the side of my house where I do not water. The flowers are a pretty bright yellow. They form their own picture of golden color around my washing line, something like a crazy artwork.
The flowers also add fine flavor and color when dropped in ice water. Do you know that the leaves can be used in a salad to spice it up They also add vitamins. I've been told that the leaves and roots contain vitamins A, B and C as well as minerals such as iron and calcium. It does not taste that great, but it certainly is good for you.
If dandelions weren't so tough and hardy, gardeners would raise them carefully in greenhouses. They'd be expensive in the shops and people would form dandelion societies to show them off and teach others about their benefits. But they are not rare and delicate, so we label them weeds and kill them.
But I say that they are works of art, carefully made by nature's magical hand. As the season progresses, the flower turns into light puffy seeds that can float in the wind. If you blow the round head of seeds gently but firmly, the seeds fly away in every direction, forming a kind of art on the move.
So in the dandelion are both art and poetry. Let nature's art and beauty never stop to fill you with joy and amazement.
24. How did the author feel about his neighbor killing dandelions for her
A. She was very grateful and thanked him. B. She didn't pay much attention to it.
C. She had mixed feelings about it. D. She hated his neighbor for the trouble made.
25. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. Dandelions can serve different purposes.
B. Dandelion flowers form a beautiful picture in the author's garden.
C. Dandelions can be added to salad, improving the flavor.
D. Dandelions are free of charge, just like poetry.
26. What makes dandelions weed ignored by people
A. Dandelions are not as beautiful as other flowers.
B. They are too tough to arouse gardeners' desire to raise them carefully.
C. They are so expensive that people can't afford to buy in the shops.
D. They are very strong and uncommon in nature.
27. What adjectives can be used to describe dandelions according to the author
A. Nutritious and tasty. B. Common but delicate.
C. Tough but rare. D. Artistic and poetic.
C
I’m at the salon and my hairdresser Kristi Lauren is talking rubbish. To be precise, what she tells me is pretty dumbfounding, that is, exactly how much waste her salon recycles: last year it was 1.25 tonnes. Everything from hair to shampoo bottles is recycled in innovative ways. Her waste is collected by Waste Free Systems, a social enterprise.
Lauren explains the problem, “Our colour tubes are boxed, and they can have a paper ingredient (成分) list as well as the plastic cover and the metal tube. All our product bottles. Then there' s all that cut hair, and the unused colour that would normally be washed down the sink.”
Waste Free Systems charges a fee for collecting the waste, and money raised by selling recycled materials goes to charities. Lauren, who runs an eight-chair salon, says, “It's a small price to pay. It ends up being just about $ 2 per client — we call it a green tax .”
Paul Frasca is the co-founder of Sustainable Salons，a similar service which now works with almost 1,000 hairdressing salons and beauty salons across Australia and New Zealand. Frasca says many salons are now using their green programs actively as a marketing strategy. “The environmentally aware consumer is now the most important customer on the market. So it doesn't just make environmental sense.”
Both programs are researching new ways to redirect waste. Waste Free Systems is using hair to provide nutrients for plants, while Sustainable Salons makes hair products for cleaning up oil leakage. Sustainable Salons has partnered with Dresden Vision to turn plastic shampoo bottles into frames（框架）for eyeglasses. Waste Free Systems has experimented with turning plastic bottles into 3D printing material.
28. What does the underlined word “dumbfounding” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Astonishing. B. Encouraging. C. Unreliable. D. Practical.
29. What does Frasca mean by his words in paragraph 4
A. Running a sustainable salon meets market demands.
B. Green programs should be independent of marketing.
C. There is room for improvement for Sustainable Salons.
D. It is difficult to raise consumers' environmental awareness.
30. What does the last paragraph mainly focus on
A. Benefits of using green salon products. B. Innovative ways of salon waste treatment.
C. Alternatives to plastic bottles used in salons. D. Effects of technology on the beauty industry.
31. From which is the text probably taken
A. A news story. B. An official report.
C. A research paper. D. A fashion advertisement.
D
A new study shows that the more people read any kind of fiction, the better their language skills are likely to be. The piece was written by Sandra Martin-Chang of Concordia University in Canada, and her student Stephanie Kozak.
Martin-Chang and Kozak used a scale(量表) called the Predictors of Leisure Reading (PoLR) to investigate reading behaviours (motivations, attitudes and interests). They then examined how well the PoLR predicted the language skills of 200 undergraduate students, with all data gathered at York University in Toronto. The researchers note that the age range of the subjects in the study is of key interest. In early adulthood, reading becomes self-directed rather than forced by parents or teachers, which makes this a perfect time for developing one's own reading habits. This population is also rather understudied, with most existing research focusing far more on children.
The researchers administered a series of measures over two separate half-hour sessions. First, the volunteers completed the 48-question PoLR scale measuring various reading behaviours. They were then given language tests. The researchers found that people who enjoyed reading fiction for leisure and who identified themselves as readers scored higher on the language tests, while those who read to access specific information scored more poorly on the same tests.
The many benefits of reading have long been established. Besides having better language abilities, lifelong readers are known to be more understanding of others, attain higher socioeconomic status and even live longer, healthier lives than non-readers.
“Teachers and parents can develop a love of reading by letting young people read what they want, without guilt or shame. This established interest, wanting to read something over and over again, having a strong desire to read an entire series, feeling connected to characters and authors, these are all good things,” Martin-Chang concludes.
32. What did the researchers take into consideration when choosing study subjects
A. Their age. B. Their education.
C. Their family background. D. Their childhood reading habit.
33. What do we know about those who behaved poorly in the language tests
A. They read a lot out of interest. B. They read to get information.
C. They were popular fiction lovers. D. They identified themselves as readers.
34. What might Martin-Chang advise teachers to do
A. Tell students to read book series.
B. Ask students to read a book repeatedly .
C. Allow students to choose their reading freely.
D. Encourage students to read books related to them.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. To open a book is always beneficial.
B. Reading enriches both mind and heart.
C. Lifelong readers are more understanding of others.
D. Picking up a book for fun positively affects language abilities.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
You may have come across the picture that has a number drawn on the floor with two people standing on either side of it. One person sees a 6, and the other sees a 9. They are both right, but they are wrong in the eyes of the other person. This is perspective. In life, few things are absolutely right or wrong. ____36____
____37____Because we often feel that as long as other people' s opinions and decisions do not affect us, ours should not affect them. However, the fact is that our perspective on life does affect the people around us. Let's go back to the 6 and 9 example we begin with. We can end up having two adults who refuse to agree and separate after a heated argument, destroying the chances of building a relationship. We can also end up having two adults who change positions and perspectives to see that this can either be a 6 or a 9, depending on where they stand.____38____And all they have to do is view things from a different perspective.
Having good perspective on life gives you an advantage. First of all, you are a lot more open to seeing from other people' s perspectives, thus making it easy for you to create meaningful relationships. ____39____ If you live a life where you are constantly showing thankfulness and being happy, then you have lived a satisfying life.
The moment your perspective on life comes into play, always remember that the other person' s perspective matters as well. ____40____ A lot of quarrels, battles, and wars could be avoided if people saw things from another person' s perspective.
A. Try to put yourself in someone else' s shoes.
B. What we usually have are two different perspectives on one thing, instead.
C. You may not realize how important your perspective on life is.
D. It also gives you a lot more reasons to be grateful and happy.
E. Your perspective determines how other people deal with you.
F. This can graduate into handshakes and the start of a friendship.
G. Change your perspective so that you can see the most growth in your mind .

【解析】
【原文】I' m the director of the college. We’re planning on holding the opening ceremony on April 21st with a view to starting summer classes on June 15th. It's hard to say at this moment exactly how many students are likely to enroll for summer school, but there' s certainly been a lot of interest, especially after the series of adverts we did on the radio. We were confident those would be more effective than TV promotions as people tend to change channels during the breaks between programs. You can visit our website to get more information about entry fees. We' re hoping to attract some useful publicity at the opening ceremony, and our marketing director has been working very hard on this. We thought it was important to invite a famous writer to declare the college officially open. We’re pleased the writer Adam has agreed. We are thrilled to announce that the volleyballer Harry and the businessman James will give a short talk. The aim of the opening is to get local people to sign up for our practical subjects. We’re going to have local experts giving free classes here. Someone suggested we should have a new office in the city center to create interest, but it will cost a lot.

My neighbor has a beautiful lawn. He hates to see even one weed(野草)in it. I understand his feelings but accept a little more of a natural look. Every year, the spring rains caused weeds to appear where they were not planted, especially in the lawn. He then starts to mix up all his different poisons in his garage. There is one weed killer for killing weeds in paths, another for killing weeds in flower beds, another for killing grass in flower beds and yet another for killing weeds in grass.
One day when I got home from work, he was killing the dandelions(蒲公英) growing at the side of my house. “ I'm sure that you will be happy with me killing these weeds for you,” he said.
Knowing he meant well, I said thanks to him. However, deep inside, I felt saddened. I happen to like dandelions. For me, even in something as simple as a dandelion, there is art. In fact, there is even poetry in a dandelion!
Dandelions can be used for many different purposes. They certainly do grow where nothing else does, like along the side of my house where I do not water. The flowers are a pretty bright yellow. They form their own picture of golden color around my washing line, something like a crazy artwork.
The flowers also add fine flavor and color when dropped in ice water. Do you know that the leaves can be used in a salad to spice it up They also add vitamins. I've been told that the leaves and roots contain vitamins A, B and C as well as minerals such as iron and calcium. It does not taste that great, but it certainly is good for you.
If dandelions weren't so tough and hardy, gardeners would raise them carefully in greenhouses. They'd be expensive in the shops and people would form dandelion societies to show them off and teach others about their benefits. But they are not rare and delicate, so we label them weeds and kill them.
But I say that they are works of art, carefully made by nature's magical hand. As the season progresses, the flower turns into light puffy seeds that can float in the wind. If you blow the round head of seeds gently but firmly, the seeds fly away in every direction, forming a kind of art on the move.
So in the dandelion are both art and poetry. Let nature's art and beauty never stop to fill you with joy and amazement.
24. How did the author feel about his neighbor killing dandelions for her
A. She was very grateful and thanked him. B. She didn't pay much attention to it.
C. She had mixed feelings about it. D. She hated his neighbor for the trouble made.
25. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. Dandelions can serve different purposes.
B. Dandelion flowers form a beautiful picture in the author's garden.
C. Dandelions can be added to salad, improving the flavor.
D. Dandelions are free of charge, just like poetry.
26. What makes dandelions weed ignored by people
A. Dandelions are not as beautiful as other flowers.
B. They are too tough to arouse gardeners' desire to raise them carefully.
C. They are so expensive that people can't afford to buy in the shops.
D. They are very strong and uncommon in nature.
27. What adjectives can be used to describe dandelions according to the author
A. Nutritious and tasty. B. Common but delicate.
C. Tough but rare. D. Artistic and poetic.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. B 27. D

I’m at the salon and my hairdresser Kristi Lauren is talking rubbish. To be precise, what she tells me is pretty dumbfounding, that is, exactly how much waste her salon recycles: last year it was 1.25 tonnes. Everything from hair to shampoo bottles is recycled in innovative ways. Her waste is collected by Waste Free Systems, a social enterprise.
Lauren explains the problem, “Our colour tubes are boxed, and they can have a paper ingredient (成分) list as well as the plastic cover and the metal tube. All our product bottles. Then there' s all that cut hair, and the unused colour that would normally be washed down the sink.”
Waste Free Systems charges a fee for collecting the waste, and money raised by selling recycled materials goes to charities. Lauren, who runs an eight-chair salon, says, “It's a small price to pay. It ends up being just about $ 2 per client — we call it a green tax .”
Paul Frasca is the co-founder of Sustainable Salons，a similar service which now works with almost 1,000 hairdressing salons and beauty salons across Australia and New Zealand. Frasca says many salons are now using their green programs actively as a marketing strategy. “The environmentally aware consumer is now the most important customer on the market. So it doesn't just make environmental sense.”
Both programs are researching new ways to redirect waste. Waste Free Systems is using hair to provide nutrients for plants, while Sustainable Salons makes hair products for cleaning up oil leakage. Sustainable Salons has partnered with Dresden Vision to turn plastic shampoo bottles into frames（框架）for eyeglasses. Waste Free Systems has experimented with turning plastic bottles into 3D printing material.
28. What does the underlined word “dumbfounding” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Astonishing. B. Encouraging. C. Unreliable. D. Practical.
29. What does Frasca mean by his words in paragraph 4
A. Running a sustainable salon meets market demands.
B. Green programs should be independent of marketing.
C. There is room for improvement for Sustainable Salons.
D. It is difficult to raise consumers' environmental awareness.
30. What does the last paragraph mainly focus on
A. Benefits of using green salon products. B. Innovative ways of salon waste treatment.
C. Alternatives to plastic bottles used in salons. D. Effects of technology on the beauty industry.
31. From which is the text probably taken
A. A news story. B. An official report.
C. A research paper. D. A fashion advertisement.
【答案】28. A 29. A 30. B 31. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了现在有些美发沙龙正在开展一种环保的活动，所有用过的东西都以创新的方式回收利用。这种方式具有环保意义，而且还能够吸引环保人士。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划横线的单词后面的内容“that is, exactly how much waste her salon recycles: last year it was 1.25 tonnes”（也就是说，她的沙龙回收了多少废物：去年是1.25吨。）可知，一个美发沙龙能够回收利用这么多的废物是一件让人惊讶的事情，所以可以推知dumbfounding意思是“令人惊讶的”。故选A。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句话“The environmentally aware consumer is now the most important customer on the market. So it doesn't just make environmental sense.”（有环保意识的消费者现在是市场上最重要的客户。所以这不仅仅是环境方面的意义。）可知，他认为这个活动不仅具有环保意义，而且能够吸引顾客，也能符合市场的需求。故选A。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段第一句话“Both programs are researching new ways to redirect waste. ”（这两个项目都在研究重新引导废物的新方法。）以及后面列举了几个引导废物的新方法可知，这段主要关注的是沙龙废物处理的创新方法。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。本文主要讲述了现在有些美发沙龙正在开展一种环保的活动，所有用过的东西都以创新的方式回收利用。这种方式具有环保意义，而且还能够吸引环保人士。所以这篇文章最有可能是出自新闻报道。B选项为“官方报告”，C选项为“一篇研究论文。”D选项为“时尚广告”，均不符合这篇文章的内容。故选A。

A new study shows that the more people read any kind of fiction, the better their language skills are likely to be. The piece was written by Sandra Martin-Chang of Concordia University in Canada, and her student Stephanie Kozak.
Martin-Chang and Kozak used a scale(量表) called the Predictors of Leisure Reading (PoLR) to investigate reading behaviours (motivations, attitudes and interests). They then examined how well the PoLR predicted the language skills of 200 undergraduate students, with all data gathered at York University in Toronto. The researchers note that the age range of the subjects in the study is of key interest. In early adulthood, reading becomes self-directed rather than forced by parents or teachers, which makes this a perfect time for developing one's own reading habits. This population is also rather understudied, with most existing research focusing far more on children.
The researchers administered a series of measures over two separate half-hour sessions. First, the volunteers completed the 48-question PoLR scale measuring various reading behaviours. They were then given language tests. The researchers found that people who enjoyed reading fiction for leisure and who identified themselves as readers scored higher on the language tests, while those who read to access specific information scored more poorly on the same tests.
The many benefits of reading have long been established. Besides having better language abilities, lifelong readers are known to be more understanding of others, attain higher socioeconomic status and even live longer, healthier lives than non-readers.
“Teachers and parents can develop a love of reading by letting young people read what they want, without guilt or shame. This established interest, wanting to read something over and over again, having a strong desire to read an entire series, feeling connected to characters and authors, these are all good things,” Martin-Chang concludes.
32. What did the researchers take into consideration when choosing study subjects
A. Their age. B. Their education.
C. Their family background. D. Their childhood reading habit.
33. What do we know about those who behaved poorly in the language tests
A. They read a lot out of interest. B. They read to get information.
C. They were popular fiction lovers. D. They identified themselves as readers.
34. What might Martin-Chang advise teachers to do
A. Tell students to read book series.
B. Ask students to read a book repeatedly .
C. Allow students to choose their reading freely.
D. Encourage students to read books related to them.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. To open a book is always beneficial.
B. Reading enriches both mind and heart.
C. Lifelong readers are more understanding of others.
D. Picking up a book for fun positively affects language abilities.
【答案】32. A 33. B 34. C 35. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。介绍了一项关于阅读与语言技能关系的研究调查，最终得出小说看得越多的人语言技能越好。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段第三句“The researchers note that the age range of the subjects in the study is of key interest.”（研究人员注意到，研究中受试者的年龄范围非常重要）可知年龄是一个重要因素，可推知研究人员在选择研究对象时会将这一因素纳入考虑范围。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“The researchers found that people who enjoyed reading fiction for leisure and who identified themselves as readers scored higher on the language tests, while those who read to access specific information scored more poorly on the same tests.”（研究人员发现，那些喜欢闲暇时阅读小说并把自己视为读者的人在语言测试中得分较高，而那些通过阅读获取特定信息的人在同样的测试中得分较低）可知，得分较低的人在阅读时更注重获取信息。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段第一句“Teachers and parents can develop a love of reading by letting young people read what they want, without guilt or shame. ”（教师和家长可以通过让年轻人阅读他们想读的内容而培养对阅读的热爱，而不必感到内疚或羞耻）可知，Martin-Chang建议教师让学生们自由选择读物。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句“A new study shows that the more people read any kind of fiction, the better their language skills are likely to be. ”（一项新的研究表明，人们阅读任何类型小说越多，他们的语言技能可能越好）可知，本文主要讲述的是阅读小说与语言技能之间的关系。D项 “为了好玩而拿起一本书对语言能力有积极的影响”可以概括文章内容。故选D。

You may have come across the picture that has a number drawn on the floor with two people standing on either side of it. One person sees a 6, and the other sees a 9. They are both right, but they are wrong in the eyes of the other person. This is perspective. In life, few things are absolutely right or wrong. ____36____
____37____Because we often feel that as long as other people' s opinions and decisions do not affect us, ours should not affect them. However, the fact is that our perspective on life does affect the people around us. Let's go back to the 6 and 9 example we begin with. We can end up having two adults who refuse to agree and separate after a heated argument, destroying the chances of building a relationship. We can also end up having two adults who change positions and perspectives to see that this can either be a 6 or a 9, depending on where they stand.____38____And all they have to do is view things from a different perspective.
Having good perspective on life gives you an advantage. First of all, you are a lot more open to seeing from other people' s perspectives, thus making it easy for you to create meaningful relationships. ____39____ If you live a life where you are constantly showing thankfulness and being happy, then you have lived a satisfying life.
The moment your perspective on life comes into play, always remember that the other person' s perspective matters as well. ____40____ A lot of quarrels, battles, and wars could be avoided if people saw things from another person' s perspective.
A. Try to put yourself in someone else' s shoes.

【答案】36. B 37. C 38. F 39. D 40. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了生活中很少有绝对正确或绝对错误的事情，我们通常对一件事有两种不同的看法。说明了对生活的看法的重要性以及应该设身处地为别人着想。
【36题详解】
根据上文“You may have come across the picture that has a number drawn on the floor with two people standing on either side of it. One person sees a 6, and the other sees a 9. They are both right, but they are wrong in the eyes of the other person. This is perspective. In life, few things are absolutely right or wrong.(你可能会看到一幅画，上面画着一个数字，两边各站着两个人 一个人看到6，另一个人看到9。他们都是对的，但在别人眼里他们是错的。这就是角度。生活中，很少有绝对正确或绝对错误的事情)”可知，上文的例子说明生活中很少有绝对正确或绝对错误的事情，本句为本段最后一句，指出这是因为我们通常对一件事有两种不同的看法。故B选项“相反，我们通常对一件事有两种不同的看法”符合语境，故选B。
【37题详解】
根据后文“Because we often feel that as long as other people' s opinions and decisions do not affect us, ours should not affect them. However, the fact is that our perspective on life does affect the people around us. Let's go back to the 6 and 9 example we begin with. We can end up having two adults who refuse to agree and separate after a heated argument, destroying the chances of building a relationship. We can also end up having two adults who change positions and perspectives to see that this can either be a 6 or a 9, depending on where they stand. (因为我们经常觉得，只要别人的意见和决定不影响我们，我们的就不应该影响他们。然而，事实是我们对生活的看法确实会影响我们周围的人。让我们回到6和9开始的例子。我们最终可能会有两个成年人在激烈的争吵后拒绝同意和分开，破坏了建立关系的机会。我们还可以让两个成年人改变姿势和视角，看看这是6还是9，这取决于他们站的位置)”可知，本段主要通过后文6和9的例子说明，一个人的看法可以影响和他人的关系，即对生活产生影响。故C选项“你可能没有意识到你对生活的看法有多重要”符合语境，故选C。
【38题详解】
根据上文“Let's go back to the 6 and 9 example we begin with. We can end up having two adults who refuse to agree and separate after a heated argument, destroying the chances of building a relationship. We can also end up having two adults who change positions and perspectives to see that this can either be a 6 or a 9, depending on where they stand. (让我们回到6和9开始的例子。我们最终可能会有两个成年人在激烈的争吵后拒绝同意和分开，破坏了建立关系的机会。我们还可以让两个成年人改变姿势和视角，看看这是6还是9，这取决于他们站的位置)”可知，上文的例子说明角度不同可以让两个人因为分歧争吵分开，故推测本句要说明可以通过改变姿势和视角让可以彼此认同，最终成为朋友。故F选项“这可以逐渐发展成握手，成为一段友谊的开始”符合语境，故选F。
【39题详解】
根据上文“Having good perspective on life gives you an advantage. First of all, you are a lot more open to seeing from other people' s perspectives, thus making it easy for you to create meaningful relationships.(对生活有良好的看法会给你带来优势。首先，你更愿意从别人的角度看问题，从而更容易建立有意义的关系)”以及后文“If you live a life where you are constantly showing thankfulness and being happy, then you have lived a satisfying life.(如果你的生活总是充满感恩和快乐，那么你的生活就是令人满意的)”可知，上文提到愿意从别人的角度看问题，后文则提到了感恩，可知本句承接上文说明这一做法的好处：给了你更多的理由去感恩和快乐，D选项中be grateful对应后文中thankfulness。故D选项“它也给了你更多的理由去感恩和快乐”符合语境，故选D。
【40题详解】
根据上文“The moment your perspective on life comes into play, always remember that the other person' s perspective matters as well.(当你对生活的看法开始发挥作用时，要记住别人的看法也很重要)”以及后文“A lot of quarrels, battles, and wars could be avoided if people saw things from another person' s perspective.(如果人们从另一个人的角度看问题，很多争吵、战斗和战争都可以避免)”可知，本段旨在说明别人的看法也很重要，即设身处地为别人着想，后文说明了这一做法的好处和作用。故A选项“试着设身处地为别人着想”符合语境，故选A。

【解析】
【分析】本文是新闻报道。文章介绍了山西省遭受破纪录的降雨和洪水，其境内古建筑面临着巨大的风险。
【71题详解】
考查冠词。句意：随着山西省遭受破纪录的降雨和洪水，成千上万的古建筑也面临着巨大的风险。rainfall在句中表示“降雨”，泛指，前面应使用不定冠词，又因空格后单词record-breaking音标中的第一个单节是辅音音素/r/，所以应使用不定冠词a。故填a。
【72题详解】
考查介词。句意：随着山西省遭受破纪录的降雨和洪水，成千上万的古建筑也面临着巨大的风险。at risk为固定短语，表示“处于危险中”。故填at。
【73题详解】
考查副词。句意：幸运的是，由于准确的天气预报和及时的应对，大部分古建筑都提前得到了保护，没有受到太大的破坏。根据句意可知，fortunate在句中作评注性状语，应用副词形式fortunately，意为“幸运的是”，另外，句首单词首字母大写。故填Fortunately。
【74题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：幸运的是，由于准确的天气预报和及时的应对，大部分古建筑都提前得到了保护，没有受到太大的破坏。分析句子可知，动词prevent(保护)是非谓语动词，且(prevent) flooding是most of the province’s ancient buildings were protected in advance的目的，所以应使用动词不定式作目的状语。故填to prevent。
【75题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意：然而，作为全国古建筑遗址最多的省份，山西被誉为中国古建筑的宝库，但在最近连日来的暴雨引发的洪水和滑坡中，仍有许多古建筑处于危险之中。根据句意，并结合句中定冠词the和给出的比较范围in the country可知，形容词large应使用最高级形式largest，表示“最多的”。故填largest。
【76题详解】
考查固定短语和主谓一致。句意：然而，作为全国古建筑遗址最多的省份，山西被誉为中国古建筑的宝库，但在最近连日来的暴雨引发的洪水和滑坡中，仍有许多古建筑处于危险之中。分析句子可知，提示词know是句中谓语动词，结合句意可知，应用固定短语be known as，表示“以……著称”，又因主语Shanxi是单数名词，所以谓语动词用单数形式。故填is known。
【77题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：然而，作为全国古建筑遗址最多的省份，山西被誉为中国古建筑的宝库，但在最近连日来的暴雨引发的洪水和滑坡中，仍有许多古建筑处于危险之中。分析句子可知，cause(引发)作后置定语修饰名词floods and landslides，是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语floods and landslides之 间有被动关系，且“引发”这一动作已经完成，所以应用过去分词，表示被动和完成。故填caused。
【78题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：据《山西晚报》报道，在罕见的持续降雨中，至少有16座古建筑出现局部倒塌、裂缝或严重渗漏，这也影响了周围房屋的安全。分析句子可知，空格处为非限制性定语从句，修饰前面整个句子，关系词代替“至少有16座古建筑出现局部倒塌、裂缝或严重渗漏”这一事件在从句中作主语，应使用关系代词which引导该定语从句。故填which。
【79题详解】
考查形容词。句意：在山西省省会太原市，包括金庙和天龙山石窟在内的多个国家级重点历史文化遗址都受到了不同程度的破坏。根据句意可知，提示词vary在句中作定语修饰名词extent，应用形容词形式various，表示“不同的”。故填various。
【80题详解】
考查名词。句意：通往旅游景点的道路也因为潮湿的土壤而被山体滑坡破坏。根据上文和句中were可知，主语是复数名词，提示词attraction应用复数形式attractions。故填attractions。

Dear Lucy,
Your problem is common one among middle school students. Maybe the following advices can help you. First in all, believe in yourself. Your greatest problem is that you lack self-confidence. The first thing you must do it is to smile at your classmates. One smile speaks loud about your wish to make friends than any word. Your smile will show that you are friendly to him. Next, trying talking with a student who is as shy as you or who share the same interest as you. You can discuss your studies with a classmate and you can also talk about your hobbies. Unless anyone is in trouble, you should be ready to help him or her. Once you have confidence, you can make as many friends as possibly.
Yours,
Li Fang
【答案】1.common前加a
2.advices→advice
3.in→of
4.do it删掉it
5.loud→louder
6.him→them
7.trying→try
8.share→shares
9.Unless→If
10.possibly→possible
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇应用文。文中李芳给lucy讲述了一些Lucy和同学交往遇到问题的解决方案。
【详解】1.考查冠词。句意：你的问题是中学生普遍都会遇到的一个问题。后面的one代指前面的problem，为泛指应用不定冠词，且common是发音以辅音音素开头的单词应用a。故common前加a。
2.考查名词。句意：也许下面的建议可以帮助你。advice为不可数名词，没有复数形式。故advices改为advice。
3.考查介词。句意：首先，相信自己。结合句意表示“首先”可知短语为first of all。故in改为of。
4.考查定语从句。句意：你必须做的第一件事是对你的同学微笑。此处you must do修饰thing，为省略关系词的定语从句，thing在从句中作宾语，不需要代词it。故do it删掉it。
5.考查比较级。句意：一个微笑比任何语言都能表达你想交朋友的愿望。根据后文“than any word”可知loud应用比较级。故loud改为louder。
6.考查代词。句意：你的微笑会表明你对他们很友好。此处指代classmates，应用代词them。故him改为them。
7.考查祈使句。句意：接下来，试着和一个和你一样害羞或者和你有相同兴趣的学生交谈。此处为肯定祈使句，句首单词应用动词原形。故trying改为try。
8.考查主谓一致。句意：接下来，试着和一个和你一样害羞或者和你有相同兴趣的学生交谈。此处为定语从句修饰先行词student，先行词在从句中作主语，谓语应用第三人称单数形式。故share改为shares。
9.考查状语从句。句意：如果有人遇到麻烦，你应该准备好帮助他或她。引导条件状语从句，表示“如果”应用if。故Unless改为If。
10.考查形容词。句意：一旦你有了信心，你可以结交尽可能多的朋友。结合句意表示“尽可能多的”可知短语为as many as possible。故possibly改为possible。
