Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness(荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000.
Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold. They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warning. An avalanche(雪崩) once closed the path, killing 63 people. For many who made it to Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.
But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come. Today, people still come and go—to see where the Canadian gold rush happened. Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City—its present population is 762.
1.What attracted the early settlers to New York City
A.Its business culture. B.Its small population.
C.Its geographical position. D.Its favourable climate.
2.What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson
A.Two-thirds of them stayed there. B.One out of five people got rich.
C.Almost everyone gave up. D.Half of them died.
3.What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson
A.They found the city too crowded. B.They wanted to try their luck elsewhere.
C.They were unable to stand the winter. D.They were short of food.
4.What is the text mainly about
A.The rise and fall of a city. B.The gold rush in Canada.
C.Journeys into the wilderness. D.Tourism in Dawson.

Marjorie grew up with a sense of worthlessness. Again and again her father said she would never complete anything in life. He told her she was a loser and that anything she did was sure to end in failure. With these words continually ringing in her ears she grew up looking for someone who would love her and see her as a person of worth. This led her into relationships that disappointed her, ending in pain again, which was another proof that she was worthless and unlovable. Where does our sense of self-worth come from
It is true that the foundation of a person's self-worth is laid in the home. Words that we hear in our home can build or tear down our worth. Encouraging words are words of life to us while words of criticism are words of death. Other people like teachers, friends and employers can add to the collection of death words in a person's heart. Over time a person begins lo see himself in the light of these words. In this situation can one develop a sense of worth
Feeling worthless is possibly the most obvious sign of low self-esteem(自尊心). But it's easy to overcome. However tough your childhood is, you can still choose to enrich the world every day simply by the way you communicate with others and make caring decisions. Whether we contribute anything or not is a choice. Feeling worthless means that you're not doing well in the areas that matter to you and therefore you need to try to increase your self-esteem. To feel valued,you'll have to really work at it and never give up on yourself.
All human beings are able to add value to society, including you. Thus there are no excuses for saying things like "I'm worthless and stupid" because you have the choice not to be any of these things.
1.What can we know from Paragraph 1
A.Marjorie was born to a poor family.
B.Fathers decide children's future development.
C.Family education affects children's growth.
D.Children shouldn't follow their parents' advice.
2.What does the third paragraph mainly show us
A.What is self-esteem. B.Why we feel worthless.
C.When we should make a choice. D.How we should change ourselves.
3.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.All of us can make contributions to our society.
B.Social activities can help a person feel confident.
C.It is common to think of oneself as worthless.
D.It is not a good way to find excuses for one's action.
4.Which of the following is the best title of this text
A.The reasons for worthlessness B.Take action to become useful
C.The importance of family education D.Study to get self-esteem

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。
We moved on to the jungle — a forest where large numbers of tall trees and plants grow very close together. Old Mali went in front and I followed close behind him. We stopped for the night about an hour before it began to get dark.
Old Mali lit a fire. When it was bright he showed me how to make a bed with moss(苔藓).
It was soft and comfortable.
"Mali, how did you learn to make such a bed " I asked.
"I learned to make beds like that," Mali replied, "by watching and listening to others. That is the real way to learn anything."
"Will you let me watch you always " I asked OldMali. "I want to learn all the things you know about the jungle."
When we had finished our supper, Old Mali got on his bed and lay down. It was now completely dark. In the fire light, Old Mali seemed to be fast asleep on his bed. I suddenly felt alone and afraid.
All day in the jungle, while we had been walking, I had heard noises of animals. Now they seemed to be much nearer. The jungle was now a wall of blackness in the light of the fire.
I felt frightened and suddenly my mouth went dry. I wanted to scream(尖叫). I felt my mouth opening wide, ready to scream as loud as possible.
But I did not scream. I saw Old Mali's face in the firelight. This made me feel ashamed(惭愧的). I held my teeth tightly together to stop myself from screaming. I lay down and closed my eyes.
As soon as I closed my eyes, I heard a thousand noises. The whole jungle became alive with animals moving quietly and carefully all around me. Suddenly Old Mali took a deep breath and made a noise. I was hearing so many imaginary noises and the real noise made by Old Mali gave me a terrible fright.
I opened my eyes and jumped out of bed. I pulled my knife out and held it above my head.

第一节
A
答案：1-3.BDA

3.解析:细节理解题。根据Hampton Court was once the home of four Kings and one Queen.判断答案为A项。
B
答案：1-4 CBBA
解析：1.细节理解题。根据文章第一段中Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River.可知,人们选择在河边或港口设城是因为交通方便,便于做生意。而纽约就是在哈德森河口附近的一个大港口,故纽约吸引早期移民的原因是它的地理位置,故C正确。
2.细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.可知,在最初挖黄金的两万人中有4000人变富有,所以是五分之一的人变富了,故B正确。
3.细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come.可知,人们离开Dawson的主要原因是听说在Alaska发现了黄金,也就是他们要去别的地方寻找发财的机会。故B正确。
4.主旨大意题。第一段简要介绍城市发展的原因,引出Dawson这一城市的兴起,第二段介绍了该城市兴起的原因,第三段介绍人们选择离开该城市的原因及现在的状况,所以全文围绕Dawson这个城市的发展起伏。故A正确。
C
答案：1.A; 2.C; 3.B; 4.D
解析：1.考查细节理解。由第一段中的"Do you want to get your blood pumping from thrilling travels Look no further! These tours and destinations will keep you on your toes all week long" 可知,文章中提到的这些旅行的共同特点是令人激动的,故选A。
2.考查细节理解。由第二段中的"This underrated(被低估的) destination is a little-known secret for the most travelers" 可知,巴拿马不像其他三个旅游地那么出名,故选C。
3.考查简单计算。根据对四个旅游地的介绍可知,在巴拿马旅行的费用是250 x8 =2 000(美元),在加拿大旅行的费用是200 x 12 =2400(美元),在冰岛旅行的费用是300 x7 =2 100(美元),在南非旅行的费用是230 x9 =2 070(美元),通过比较可知,去加拿大旅行的费用最高,故选B。
4.考查推理判断。由第三段中的"During this twelve days tour you will hike a glacier(冰川) to beautiful scenery and wander through postcard-worthy villages"以及第四段中的"Spend seven days full of adventures like hiking glaciers, snowshoeing through Thingvellir National Park"可知,在加拿大和冰岛游客们都可以在冰山徒步, 故选D。
D
答案：1.C; 2.D; 3.A; 4.B
解析：1.考查推理判断。第一段主要讲了Marjorie在成长过程中,父亲对她的否定使得她丧失信心,觉得自己一无是处这说明家庭的教育对孩子的影响很大。故C项正确。
2.考查段落大意。由本段内容,尤其是最后一句"To feel valued, you'll have to really work at it and never give up on yourself" 可知, 本段主要讲我们应该怎样改变自己,获得自我价值感。故D项正确。
3.考查推理判断。由最后一段中的"All human beings are able to add value to society, including you"可知,我们所有的人都能对社会有所贡献。故A项正确。
4.考查主旨大意。通读全文,本文主要介绍了如何获得自我价值感,增强自尊心。故B项正确。
第二节
答案：E; D; F; C; B
解析：1.本段中的making a plan与选项E中的plan and enjoy the trip相对应,故选E项。
2.该空位于本段的末尾,应该是有关结论方面的内容。空格前面主要说的是首先你要知道这次旅行的目的。what you need和D项中的your needs相对应。
3.该空后面主要说的是要购买旅行指南和在网上查阅当地的信息等,这些都是旅行前的准备工作。故选F项。
4.该空后面主要说的是避免携带不必要的东西,否则会影响你旅游的兴致。本段中的unnecessary things与C项中的important things相对应。
5.该空为小标题。空格后面主要说的是不合理的期望会造成不必要的压力,因此你的期望要结合实际。本段中的Unreasonable expectations与选项B(Have realistic expectations.)相对应。
第二部分 语言知识运用
第一节
答案：1.D; 2.C; 3.A; 4.D; 5.B; 6.C; 7.A; 8.D; 9.C; 10.B; 11.A; 12.D; 13.D; 14.C; 15.A
解析： 1.根据上一句提到的整个学校都在讨论即将到来的冬令营可知，每个人应该都很"兴奋"。
2.根据空前提到的I'll look stupid at winter sports可知，作者不擅长冬季运动项目。因此，她应该是害怕别人"取笑"她。
3.作者害怕自己因不擅长冬季运动而遭到其他人的嘲笑，因此作者的母亲鼓励作者去"尝试"。
4.接下来讲的是在冬令营发生的事情，因此此处指"到达"营地。
5.根据该空后的I'm afraid可知，这里应该是让大家分享一件自己害怕的事。
6.作者担心自己会想家，当听到有人也说害怕自己会想家后，作者舒了一口气，因为有这种担心的并不是只有自己。
7.根据该空后的but可知，前半句应该与后半句形成转折关系。因此，此处指作者虽然很"小心地"滑，但还是撞到了冰上。
8.根据空前提到的撞到了一块冰上可知，作者应该是"摔倒"了。
9.上一句提到作者听到背后有人在笑。因此，作者应该是"回头看"谁在笑她。
10.作者原本以为有人笑话她摔倒，当她回头看时，令她惊讶的是，她看到了一个跟她一样摔倒的女孩。
11.此处是那个女孩说的话。她之前认为自己肯定滑不好，但没想到自己比预想的还要糟糕。
12.女孩所说的话让作者也"突然"笑了起来。
13.作者之前一直害怕摔倒，因此此处指在经历过害怕摔倒后，不再害怕就成了一种安慰。
14.此处指也许父母谈论的那种成长更多的是与态度有关，而不是外貌。上文中的It's what growing up is all about是提示。
15.上文介绍了作者害怕尝试新事物，担心会因失败而遭到其他人的嘲笑。联系此语境可知，此处应用new。
第二节
答案：1. Expressing2. appreciated3. which4. but5. to offer6. sadness7. it8. services9. have found10. thankful
解析：
本文阐述了人要学会感激的道理。
1.Expressing【解题思路】考査非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知, (express) gratitude是句子的主语,因此应用动词-ing形式短语作主语。
2. appreciated【解题思路】考查被动语态。like to do sth.表示"喜欢做某事",此处表示"被赏识",且句中的and连接两个并列成分, 故应填 appreciated。
3. which【解题思路】考査定语从句。空处引导非限制性定语从句,句中缺少主语,且先行词为Gratitude,指物,故用which。
4. but【解题思路】考查连词。根据"just need several minutes to write down"和"it brings much joy " 可知前后是转折关系,故用but。
5. to offer【解题思路】考查动词不定式。父母努力工作的目的是给你提供幸福的生活,因此此处应用不定式作目的状语。
6. sadness 【解题思路】考査词形转换。此处and连接两个名词,根据your happiness可知,空处应填sad的名词形式。
7. it【解题思路】考査代词。分析句子结构可知,sure后是宾语从句,从句中缺少主语。由语境可知,真正的主语是to receive your gratitude,故此处应用it作形式主语。
8. services【解题思路】考查名词复数。由句中的different可知此处应用名词复数
9. have found【解题思路】考査时态。up to now表示"直到现在", 故句子应用现在完成时。
10. thankful【解题思路】考査形容词。空处修饰名词heart,因此用其形容词形式。

第二节
答案：
I was going to see if there was a wild animal beside the fire. Through the burning fire, I believed I saw its sharp teeth and horrible red eyes. I couldn't help trembling and began to scream loudly at the thought of it. Then a soft voice came from the dark, " Are you okay " It was Old Mali who was now lying on his side with his eyes wide open.
Old Mali's quiet calm voice made me feel better. Adjusting breath quickly and observing carefully, I found the "animal" was just the shade of trees. I laughed in relief and told Old Mali what had happened just now. Having known the whole story, he gave me an understanding smile and told me his former experiences in jungle. With these stories, I got back to my bed and lay down. Exhausted, I closed my eyes, and knowing Old Mali was watching, I soon fell fast asleep. That night was so unforgettable that it would stay in my memory forever.

Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness(荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000.
Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold. They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warning. An avalanche(雪崩) once closed the path, killing 63 people. For many who made it to Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.
But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come. Today, people still come and go—to see where the Canadian gold rush happened. Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City—its present population is 762.
1.What attracted the early settlers to New York City
A.Its business culture. B.Its small population.
C.Its geographical position. D.Its favourable climate.
2.What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson
A.Two-thirds of them stayed there. B.One out of five people got rich.
C.Almost everyone gave up. D.Half of them died.
3.What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson
A.They found the city too crowded. B.They wanted to try their luck elsewhere.
C.They were unable to stand the winter. D.They were short of food.
4.What is the text mainly about
A.The rise and fall of a city. B.The gold rush in Canada.
C.Journeys into the wilderness. D.Tourism in Dawson.

Marjorie grew up with a sense of worthlessness. Again and again her father said she would never complete anything in life. He told her she was a loser and that anything she did was sure to end in failure. With these words continually ringing in her ears she grew up looking for someone who would love her and see her as a person of worth. This led her into relationships that disappointed her, ending in pain again, which was another proof that she was worthless and unlovable. Where does our sense of self-worth come from
It is true that the foundation of a person's self-worth is laid in the home. Words that we hear in our home can build or tear down our worth. Encouraging words are words of life to us while words of criticism are words of death. Other people like teachers, friends and employers can add to the collection of death words in a person's heart. Over time a person begins lo see himself in the light of these words. In this situation can one develop a sense of worth
Feeling worthless is possibly the most obvious sign of low self-esteem(自尊心). But it's easy to overcome. However tough your childhood is, you can still choose to enrich the world every day simply by the way you communicate with others and make caring decisions. Whether we contribute anything or not is a choice. Feeling worthless means that you're not doing well in the areas that matter to you and therefore you need to try to increase your self-esteem. To feel valued,you'll have to really work at it and never give up on yourself.
All human beings are able to add value to society, including you. Thus there are no excuses for saying things like "I'm worthless and stupid" because you have the choice not to be any of these things.
1.What can we know from Paragraph 1
A.Marjorie was born to a poor family.
B.Fathers decide children's future development.
C.Family education affects children's growth.
D.Children shouldn't follow their parents' advice.

3.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.All of us can make contributions to our society.
B.Social activities can help a person feel confident.
C.It is common to think of oneself as worthless.
D.It is not a good way to find excuses for one's action.

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。
We moved on to the jungle — a forest where large numbers of tall trees and plants grow very close together. Old Mali went in front and I followed close behind him. We stopped for the night about an hour before it began to get dark.
Old Mali lit a fire. When it was bright he showed me how to make a bed with moss(苔藓).
It was soft and comfortable.
"Mali, how did you learn to make such a bed " I asked.
"I learned to make beds like that," Mali replied, "by watching and listening to others. That is the real way to learn anything."
"Will you let me watch you always " I asked OldMali. "I want to learn all the things you know about the jungle."
When we had finished our supper, Old Mali got on his bed and lay down. It was now completely dark. In the fire light, Old Mali seemed to be fast asleep on his bed. I suddenly felt alone and afraid.
All day in the jungle, while we had been walking, I had heard noises of animals. Now they seemed to be much nearer. The jungle was now a wall of blackness in the light of the fire.
I felt frightened and suddenly my mouth went dry. I wanted to scream(尖叫). I felt my mouth opening wide, ready to scream as loud as possible.
But I did not scream. I saw Old Mali's face in the firelight. This made me feel ashamed(惭愧的). I held my teeth tightly together to stop myself from screaming. I lay down and closed my eyes.
As soon as I closed my eyes, I heard a thousand noises. The whole jungle became alive with animals moving quietly and carefully all around me. Suddenly Old Mali took a deep breath and made a noise. I was hearing so many imaginary noises and the real noise made by Old Mali gave me a terrible fright.
I opened my eyes and jumped out of bed. I pulled my knife out and held it above my head.

第一节
A
答案：1-3.BDA

3.解析:细节理解题。根据Hampton Court was once the home of four Kings and one Queen.判断答案为A项。
B
答案：1-4 CBBA
解析：1.细节理解题。根据文章第一段中Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River.可知,人们选择在河边或港口设城是因为交通方便,便于做生意。而纽约就是在哈德森河口附近的一个大港口,故纽约吸引早期移民的原因是它的地理位置,故C正确。
2.细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.可知,在最初挖黄金的两万人中有4000人变富有,所以是五分之一的人变富了,故B正确。
3.细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come.可知,人们离开Dawson的主要原因是听说在Alaska发现了黄金,也就是他们要去别的地方寻找发财的机会。故B正确。
4.主旨大意题。第一段简要介绍城市发展的原因,引出Dawson这一城市的兴起,第二段介绍了该城市兴起的原因,第三段介绍人们选择离开该城市的原因及现在的状况,所以全文围绕Dawson这个城市的发展起伏。故A正确。
C
答案：1.A; 2.C; 3.B; 4.D
解析：1.考查细节理解。由第一段中的"Do you want to get your blood pumping from thrilling travels Look no further! These tours and destinations will keep you on your toes all week long" 可知,文章中提到的这些旅行的共同特点是令人激动的,故选A。
2.考查细节理解。由第二段中的"This underrated(被低估的) destination is a little-known secret for the most travelers" 可知,巴拿马不像其他三个旅游地那么出名,故选C。
3.考查简单计算。根据对四个旅游地的介绍可知,在巴拿马旅行的费用是250 x8 =2 000(美元),在加拿大旅行的费用是200 x 12 =2400(美元),在冰岛旅行的费用是300 x7 =2 100(美元),在南非旅行的费用是230 x9 =2 070(美元),通过比较可知,去加拿大旅行的费用最高,故选B。
4.考查推理判断。由第三段中的"During this twelve days tour you will hike a glacier(冰川) to beautiful scenery and wander through postcard-worthy villages"以及第四段中的"Spend seven days full of adventures like hiking glaciers, snowshoeing through Thingvellir National Park"可知,在加拿大和冰岛游客们都可以在冰山徒步, 故选D。
D
答案：1.C; 2.D; 3.A; 4.B
解析：1.考查推理判断。第一段主要讲了Marjorie在成长过程中,父亲对她的否定使得她丧失信心,觉得自己一无是处这说明家庭的教育对孩子的影响很大。故C项正确。
2.考查段落大意。由本段内容,尤其是最后一句"To feel valued, you'll have to really work at it and never give up on yourself" 可知, 本段主要讲我们应该怎样改变自己,获得自我价值感。故D项正确。
3.考查推理判断。由最后一段中的"All human beings are able to add value to society, including you"可知,我们所有的人都能对社会有所贡献。故A项正确。
4.考查主旨大意。通读全文,本文主要介绍了如何获得自我价值感,增强自尊心。故B项正确。
第二节
答案：E; D; F; C; B
解析：1.本段中的making a plan与选项E中的plan and enjoy the trip相对应,故选E项。
2.该空位于本段的末尾,应该是有关结论方面的内容。空格前面主要说的是首先你要知道这次旅行的目的。what you need和D项中的your needs相对应。
3.该空后面主要说的是要购买旅行指南和在网上查阅当地的信息等,这些都是旅行前的准备工作。故选F项。
4.该空后面主要说的是避免携带不必要的东西,否则会影响你旅游的兴致。本段中的unnecessary things与C项中的important things相对应。
5.该空为小标题。空格后面主要说的是不合理的期望会造成不必要的压力,因此你的期望要结合实际。本段中的Unreasonable expectations与选项B(Have realistic expectations.)相对应。
第二部分 语言知识运用
第一节
答案：1.D; 2.C; 3.A; 4.D; 5.B; 6.C; 7.A; 8.D; 9.C; 10.B; 11.A; 12.D; 13.D; 14.C; 15.A
解析： 1.根据上一句提到的整个学校都在讨论即将到来的冬令营可知，每个人应该都很"兴奋"。
2.根据空前提到的I'll look stupid at winter sports可知，作者不擅长冬季运动项目。因此，她应该是害怕别人"取笑"她。
3.作者害怕自己因不擅长冬季运动而遭到其他人的嘲笑，因此作者的母亲鼓励作者去"尝试"。
4.接下来讲的是在冬令营发生的事情，因此此处指"到达"营地。
5.根据该空后的I'm afraid可知，这里应该是让大家分享一件自己害怕的事。
6.作者担心自己会想家，当听到有人也说害怕自己会想家后，作者舒了一口气，因为有这种担心的并不是只有自己。
7.根据该空后的but可知，前半句应该与后半句形成转折关系。因此，此处指作者虽然很"小心地"滑，但还是撞到了冰上。
8.根据空前提到的撞到了一块冰上可知，作者应该是"摔倒"了。
9.上一句提到作者听到背后有人在笑。因此，作者应该是"回头看"谁在笑她。
10.作者原本以为有人笑话她摔倒，当她回头看时，令她惊讶的是，她看到了一个跟她一样摔倒的女孩。
11.此处是那个女孩说的话。她之前认为自己肯定滑不好，但没想到自己比预想的还要糟糕。
12.女孩所说的话让作者也"突然"笑了起来。
13.作者之前一直害怕摔倒，因此此处指在经历过害怕摔倒后，不再害怕就成了一种安慰。
14.此处指也许父母谈论的那种成长更多的是与态度有关，而不是外貌。上文中的It's what growing up is all about是提示。
15.上文介绍了作者害怕尝试新事物，担心会因失败而遭到其他人的嘲笑。联系此语境可知，此处应用new。
第二节
答案：1. Expressing2. appreciated3. which4. but5. to offer6. sadness7. it8. services9. have found10. thankful
解析：
本文阐述了人要学会感激的道理。
1.Expressing【解题思路】考査非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知, (express) gratitude是句子的主语,因此应用动词-ing形式短语作主语。
2. appreciated【解题思路】考查被动语态。like to do sth.表示"喜欢做某事",此处表示"被赏识",且句中的and连接两个并列成分, 故应填 appreciated。
3. which【解题思路】考査定语从句。空处引导非限制性定语从句,句中缺少主语,且先行词为Gratitude,指物,故用which。
4. but【解题思路】考查连词。根据"just need several minutes to write down"和"it brings much joy " 可知前后是转折关系,故用but。
5. to offer【解题思路】考查动词不定式。父母努力工作的目的是给你提供幸福的生活,因此此处应用不定式作目的状语。
6. sadness 【解题思路】考査词形转换。此处and连接两个名词,根据your happiness可知,空处应填sad的名词形式。
7. it【解题思路】考査代词。分析句子结构可知,sure后是宾语从句,从句中缺少主语。由语境可知,真正的主语是to receive your gratitude,故此处应用it作形式主语。
8. services【解题思路】考查名词复数。由句中的different可知此处应用名词复数
9. have found【解题思路】考査时态。up to now表示"直到现在", 故句子应用现在完成时。
10. thankful【解题思路】考査形容词。空处修饰名词heart,因此用其形容词形式。

第二节
答案：
I was going to see if there was a wild animal beside the fire. Through the burning fire, I believed I saw its sharp teeth and horrible red eyes. I couldn't help trembling and began to scream loudly at the thought of it. Then a soft voice came from the dark, " Are you okay " It was Old Mali who was now lying on his side with his eyes wide open.
Old Mali's quiet calm voice made me feel better. Adjusting breath quickly and observing carefully, I found the "animal" was just the shade of trees. I laughed in relief and told Old Mali what had happened just now. Having known the whole story, he gave me an understanding smile and told me his former experiences in jungle. With these stories, I got back to my bed and lay down. Exhausted, I closed my eyes, and knowing Old Mali was watching, I soon fell fast asleep. That night was so unforgettable that it would stay in my memory forever.
