28．locals
29．pairs
30．informed
31．Asian
32．fame
27．句意：令我高兴的是，我们班在比赛中得了一等奖。
根据句意理解可知，这里表达令我高兴的是，英语中表达的结构是to one's＋名词，enjoy的名词是joy，所以这里直接填joy。
28．句意：当你在一个陌生的城市迷路时，你可以向当地人求助。
根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是当地人，location是位置，变成当地人，也就是本地人，应该是local，而句中指的是问当地人，这里应该用复数形式，所以这里填locals。
29．句意：我们的英语老师鼓励我们在课堂上成对练习对话。
根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是成对的，英语中对/ 双是pair，这里指的是成对的，应该复数形式，所以这里填pairs。
30．句意：你把最新的消息告诉你的朋友了吗？
根据句意理解可知，句中用的是现在完成时，所以后面应该接过去分词形式，information的动词是inform，过去分词直接加ed，所以这里填informed。
31．句意：我以前从未去过另一个亚洲国家。
根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是亚洲的国家，亚洲的是Asian，在本题中修饰名词country，所以这里填Asian。
32．句意：他去好莱坞寻找名声和命运。
根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是名声，and并列两部分要前后保持一致，后面是名词，前面也要用名词形式，famous是形容词，名词应该是fame，所以这里填fame。
五、句型转换(共6分)
Complete the following sentences as required ( 根据所给要求完成句子）
33．The removal man put all the things in our new flat yesterday. (改为否定句）
The removal man _________ _______ all the things in our new flat yesterday.

________________________________________________________________________
【标准答案】33． didn't put
34． Has yet
35． What kind
36． Why did
37． prefer to
38．Would you like to keep a rabbit as your pet / You would like to keep a rabbit as your pet.
33．句意：搬家工人昨天把所有的东西都搬进了我们的新公寓。
题目要求改为否定句。根据句中时间状语yesterday可知，时态是一般过去时，句中谓语动词是行为动词put，所以改为否定句需借助动词didn't帮忙，其后的动词改为原形，故填didn't put。
34．句意：他的朋友已经把照片贴出来了。
题目要求改为一般疑问句。根据句中“already”可知，时态是现在完成时，所以句中的's指的是has，改为一般疑问句需将助动词has提到句首并大写首字母；又因为already用于肯定句，改为一般疑问句需改为yet，故填Has yet。
35．句意：我想要一个有游泳池的房子。
题目要求对划线部分提问。分析题目可知，对划线部分提问表示“你想要什么类型的房子？”，“什么类型”用英语表达是what kind，又因为用于句首，所以大写首字母，故填What kind。
36．句意：汤姆的妈妈带他去医院检查眼睛。
题目要求对划线部分提问。分析题目可知，对划线部分提问表示“汤姆的妈妈为什么带他去医院？”，表原因用疑问词why提问，用于句首需大写首字母；又因为原句中的谓语动词是took，表示一般过去时，所以需用助动词did提问，故填Why did。
37．句意：我们更喜欢乘飞机旅行。
题目要求保持句意基本不变。分析句子可知，原句表示“我们更喜欢乘飞机旅行。”的含义，更喜欢可用“prefer to do sth”表示，又因为原句时态是一般现在时，故填prefer to。
38．句意：你想养一只兔子当宠物吗？/你想养一只兔子当宠物。
题目要求连词成句。根据提示词可知，此处表示“你想养一只兔子当宠物吗？/你想养一只兔子当宠物。”的含义，would like翻译为“想要”，keep a rabbit翻译为“养一只兔子”，as翻译为“作为”，故填Would you like to keep a rabbit as your pet / You would like to keep a rabbit as your pet.

50．句意：近期许多研究表明，我们应该关注我们的生物钟。

根据through the day可知，体温需要在一天中慢慢升高，所以需要的是时间，故答案为time。

根据a warm shower可知，这里应该是说洗温水澡，take a shower意为“洗澡”；动词短语作主语时，动词要用动名词形式，在句首首字母大写，故答案为Taking。
53．句意：但是每个人的生物钟不同，而且有些人有特殊的模式。
根据“…and some have special patterns.”可知，有些人的生物钟比较特殊，所以每个人的生物钟都是不一样的，用different表示“不同的”，故答案为different。
54．句意：晚睡的人会起床晚，但他们的大脑在一天结束的时候工作状态更好。
根据上文“Morning people will get up early and work better early in the day.”可知，这里是拿早起的人和晚睡的人作对比，他们的大脑活跃的时间段不同，Morning对应的是Evening，故答案为Evening。
55．句意：体能在下午三点到六点之间最好。
根据上文“…we are better at some activities at certain times of the day.”可知，运动的时候在特定的时间段内会表现更好，所以3pm and 6pm是一个时间段，用between…and表示“在……之间”，故答案为between。
56．句意：最后，在我们活跃的时段吃饭最好。
前面已经提出了多种研究得出的结论，本句在文章的最后一段，所以这是最后一个结论，用Finally表示“最后”，故答案为Finally。
