In May 1804, Lewis and Clark led the Corps of Discovery to begin the journey on the Missouri River. Lewis’ main job was to lead the men on the ship. And anyway, he needed to make maps of the geography of the unknown land. As for Clark, he usually studied plants and animals along the way.
As the trip continued, one of their men became ill and died. They also had to do their best to find food and stay healthy during the winter months.
Sacagawea, a Native American, joined the Corps of Discovery in the winter of 1804. What she knew about Native American culture and her ability to speak different Native American languages made the journey much easier. Thanks to her, trade with Native Americans began.
Lewis and Clark reached the Pacific Ocean after traveling through several rivers, including the Clearwater River, Snake River and Columbia River. However, they did not find one direct (直接的) waterway that could lead boats straight to the Pacific from the Mississippi. Still, the journey was a big success.

40. highest the most famous
41.excitement
42.succeeded
43.tourist(s)
44.awake
【解析】
40.句意:在所有的山脉中,珠穆朗玛峰是最高的、最出名的。high高的,是一个形容词;famous著名的,也是形容词。根据句意和句中的Of all the mountains可知,这里表示珠穆朗玛峰是最高、最著名,所以应用形容词的最高级形式,high的最高级是highest,famous的最高级是the most famous。形容词最高级前要加定冠词the。
41.句意:这个男孩兴奋地走进了教室。excite使兴奋,是一个动词。空前with是介词,后面应该跟名词,故填excitement名词,兴奋,激动。
42.句意:在老师的帮助下,她成功了。successful是形容词,成功的,这个空缺少的是句中的谓语动词,应填动词succeed,而且根据句意应该用一般过去时态,故填succeeded。
43.句意:他带领着游客们进入了宫殿。tour旅行,是一个名词。根据句意可知,进入宫殿的应该是游客,所以这里应填名词tourist。根据句意不能明确是一个游客还是很多,所以这里可以填单数或者复数形式tourists。
44.句意:这个婴儿醒着,在向四周看。wake喊醒,叫醒,是一个动词。空前was是系动词,这里应填形容词形式,表示状态。awake醒着的,是形容词,在句中作表语。
点睛:这个题目要求用所给单词的正确形式填空,我们应根据句中所使用的句型、单词在句中的作用等来填写单词的适当形式。例如第1小题,考查的是形容词的最高级形式,因为句中有Of all the mountains,表示比较的范围,还因注意的是形容词最高级前面必须加定冠词the。再如第3小题,该空是句中的谓语动词,故应将所给的形容词successful变为动词succeed,而且根据句意她已经获得了成功,这是过去的事情了,所以填过去式succeeded。
45.The Great Wall is the longest wall in the world. There are no other man-made objects as big as it. It is about 4 to 5 meters wide. At the widest part, five horses or ten men can walk along it side by side.
It has a long history. Around 2,700 years ago, the ancient emperors made people build it to protect the country. Later Qin Shihuang and other emperors also made people repair it.
It’s a symbol of China and lots of tourists around the world visit it every year.
【解析】
【详解】
这篇习作的层次清晰,内容饱满,表达流畅。文中使用了非常好的短语,例如the longest wall,in the world,as big as at the widest part,,walk along,side by side,a symbol of China等。而There are no other man-made objects as big as it./ Around 2,700 years ago, the ancient emperors made people build it to protect the country./ It’s a symbol of China and lots of tourists around the world visit it every year.等多种复杂结构句式的运用更是为文章增色不少。
点睛:这是一篇材料作文。根据提示内容可知用一般现在时,按照提示内容逐条翻译成英文,同时进行适当的发挥。
