【答案】16．bought
17．to make
18．put
19．needs
20．will be
【导语】
本文介绍了泡茶的方法。
16．
句意：我妈妈两天前从超市买了一些茶。结合“…from the supermarket…”和备选词汇可知，妈妈应是从超市里“buy（买）”了一些茶；根据“…two days ago.”可知，此句时态应用一般过去时，所以此空应填buy的过去式bought。故填bought。
17．
句意：你知道怎么泡茶吗？通读第二段可知，此段介绍了泡茶的方法，由此可知此处应提问怎么泡茶，make tea“泡茶”；根据短语“how to do sth.（怎样做某事）”可知，此空应填动词不定式to make。故填to make。
18．
句意：过一会儿，倒出水，在茶壶里放些茶叶。结合“... pour the water out…”和备选词汇可知，水倒出来后应“put（放）”茶叶进去；and连接的是对等的成分，其前的动词“pour”为原形，那么此空也应填动词原形。故填put。
19．
句意：好茶需要很多时间泡。结合第四空所在句和备选词汇可知，此处表达“好茶需要很多时间泡”的意思，所以此空应填动词“need（需要）”；根据语境可知，此句是事实陈述，时态应用一般现在时，主语“Good tea”为第三人称单数，谓语动词need也应用其单数形式needs。故填needs。
20．
句意：我认为未来茶会越来越受欢迎。分析句子可知，该宾语从句为主系表结构，所以此空应填be动词；根据“in the future（在未来）”可知，此句时态应用一般将来时，因为此处表示的是一种推测，应用“will do”结构。故填will be。
三、用所给单词的正确形式填空(共5分)
Complete the sentences with the given words in their proper forms
21．Tigers are one of _________ (dangerous) animals on land.
22．—Who is__________ (good) student in your class
—Eddie is.
23．Which is _________ (large) ocean in the world
24．Don't play with fire. It's __________ (danger).
25．Tom's uncle is a __________ (farm).
【答案】21．the most dangerous
22．the best
23．the largest
24．dangerous
25．farmer
21．句意：老虎是陆地上最危险的动物之一。
根据句意， “……是……中最……之一”用one of the +最高级+名词(复数) 表示。所以用 dangerous“危险的”的最高级，根据dangerous的音标['de nd r s]，可知此词是一个三音节词，所以最高级为most dangerous，最危险的，故答案为the most dangerous。
22．句意：——你们班谁是最好的学生？——是Eddie。
根据in your class，可知在问谁是班级里所有人中最好的，所以用good的最高级the best，故答案为the best。
23．句意：世界上最大的海洋是哪一个？
根据in the world“在世界上”，可知在问哪个海洋是世界上最大的，所以用large的最高级形式the largest。
24．句意：不要玩火。很危险。
根据句意，这里指玩火这种行为是危险的，所以用danger的形容词形式dangerous做is的表语。故答案为 dangerous。
25．句意：Tom的叔叔是个农民。
根据farm“农场”提示，可知Tom 的叔叔是农民，farmer“农民”，可数名词，a 后面用farmer的单数，故答案为farmer。
【点睛】
当有三者或三者以上的人/东西做比较的时候用最高级。在含有最高级的句子中，常有一个“in+名词”短语来表示比较范围。例如：he is the tallest boy in the class/in the team.介词in the class指的是班级里的所有人，体现他是最高的，in the team是指在一个组里的所有人当中，他是最高的。
四、句型转换(共5分)
Rewrite the following sentences as required.(按照要求改写句子)
26．They don’t have any brothers or sisters.（保持原句意思不变）
They _______________ _______________ brothers or sisters.

【答案】26． have no
27． by not playing
28． How can
29． instead of
30． the biggest
26．句意：他们没有兄弟姐妹。
本题考查同义句。not any可以和no进行互换，意为“没有”，no位于实义动词后，主语是they，所以动词用have，故答案填 (1). have (2). no。
27．句意：我们可以节约用水。不要玩水上游戏。
本题考查合并为一句，题目中给出“我们节约水”以及“水上游戏”，可知我们节约水通过不玩水上游戏，by 意为“通过”是介词，后面跟动词ing形式，故答案填(1). by (2). not (3). playing。
28．句意：人们可以种植更多的树来拯救地球。
本题考查对划线部分提问，划线部分by planting more trees“通过种植更多的树”，可知是对方式方法提问，需要用How来提问，变疑问句时，把情态动词提到主语前，故答案填(1). How (2). can。
29．句意：上周末我呆在家里。我没去看电影。
本题考查同义句转换。根据汉语意思“上周末我呆在家里。我没去看电影”可以和“我没有去看电影，而是呆在家里”instead of意为“代替”， 故答案填(1). instead (2). of。
30．句意：鲸鱼比地球上任何其他动物都大。
本题考查同义句，根据“形容词比较级+than any other+可数名词单数”可以和“形容词最高级进行转换”，形容词最高级前要加the，所以应该是最大的，故答案填(1). the (2). biggest。
【点睛】
句型转换中的划线部分提问类题目，首先写出划线部分意思，然后确定特殊疑问词，然后写出疑问句即可。
例如题目3中，划线部分by planting more trees“通过种植更多的树”，可知是对方式方法提问，需要用How来提问，变疑问句时，把情态动词提到主语前，故答案填(1). How (2). can。

【答案】例文：
Last Saturday we visited a hope school as volunteers. It was a great way to know some other children’s life. We had a party with the students there. We also helped them clean up their classrooms. The head teacher told us some stories about some hard-working students. They were from very poor families. And in order to raise money for them, we held a big sale on the playground the next day. We raised lots of money.
I think being a volunteer is really great and I’d like to help more people.
