[广东深圳实验学校2020高二期中]On a cold morning nine years ago,Steve Cortes and his wife were travelling in Ellijay,a tiny town of 1,600 people in Georgia's Smoky Mountains. It was about time for breakfast as they came across the Cornerstone Cafe,only to find it packed. Just as they prepared to go elsewhere,one of the diners motioned(示意)them over.“We can make room,”he said. Actually,several diners moved over until there was enough space for the couple to pull up two chairs at the end of a table.
Breakfast and friendship were served. "After an hour,we had made too many friends to count,” Cortes wrote.
The hospitality(好客)may have surprised the Corteses,but Ellijay is famous in these parts for taking care of others. When a thunderstorm struck the town in July,dozens of residents were trapped in their homes by fallen trees. Without even being asked,neighbours offered them food and comfort. "This is the most amazing place I've ever lived!Every time I think about it,I actually get emotional,"one woman wrote.
As the "Apple Capital of Georgia",Ellijay has seen migrant farm workers from Mexico and Central America come to pick apples during the harvest season. The people of Ellijay have made room for these new arrivals. The Gilmer Learning Center now teaches English as a second language. A charity fashion show and auction(拍卖)are also in the works,with the money intended for the farming families.
"I came to America from Mexico not knowing English, and I’ve always felt very welcomed by my classmates and the teachers in the community," says Maria Gonzalez Santos, 21, a student at the local community college.
Ellijay's spirit of acceptance has a way of staying with people. It happened to Steve Cortes and his wife too. They started off simply driving through the town many years ago, but they felt so welcomed that they ended up moving to Ellijay. They even opened a clothing store here.
1. Why are the Corteses mentioned in Paragraph 1
A. To prove the popularity of Ellijay.
B. To introduce the good business of the cafe.
C. To indicate the special features of the cafe.
D. To show Ellijay's attitude to newcomers.
2. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2 about Ellijay
A. It has large areas of forests.
B. It has a friendly neighbourhood.
C. It is famous for its delicious food.
D. It is often struck by natural disasters.
3. What might make Ellijay more attractive to migrant farm workers
A. Charity auction.
B. Sightseeing tours.
C. Community spirit.
D. Family get-togethers.
答案解析
刷单句填空
1.misty句意为:一个雾蒙蒙的早晨并不意味着阴天;太阳出来时,雾就会消失。此处作定语,应用形容词。故填misty。
2.astonished 句意为:当听到三声枪响时,我感到既好奇又惊讶,冲出了宿舍。设空处为形容词作状语,意为“感到惊讶的”,故填astonished。
3.to句意为:与我们预料的相反,他们在飞机上供应的面条和米饭非常美味。contrary to为固定搭配,意为“与……相反”。故填to。
4.to 句意为:只有满足了这些条件,申请才能进行下一步。proceed to意为“继续下去;进行”。故填to。
5.to 句意为:老实说,我所有的成功都归功于他,因为如果没有他的帮助,我将一事无成。owe sth to sb意为“把某事归功于某人”,本句为其被动形式。故填to。
6.a句意为:这位客座教授很好,除了他的英语带着浓重的日本口音这一点。accent是可数名词,此处泛指日本口音,其前应用不定冠词,且strong的发音以辅音音素开头,故填a。
7.advertised 句意为:我写信申请刊登在报纸上的职位。该句已有谓语动词,此处应用非谓语动词作后置定语,此处表示“被刊登的工作”,应用过去分词,故填advertised。
8.Having spent 句意为:作为交换生在美国度过了一年,琳达看上去比她的同龄人更成熟。此处应用非谓语动词短语作原因状语,由于非谓语动作spend明显发生在句子谓语动作之前,所以用现在分词的完成式 Having spent。
9.toasting 句意为:他站起来,转过身,给在场的客人敬酒。分析句子结构可知,设空处应用非谓语动词作状语,toast与主语 He是逻辑上的主动关系,所以应用现在分词。故填toasting。
10.Raised 句意为:他在格拉斯哥最贫困的地区长大,要成为一名足球明星,他经历了漫长而艰难的道路。分析句子结构可知,设空处应用非谓语动词作状语,raise与主语he之间是逻辑上的被动关系,所以应用过去分词。故填Raised。

【语篇导读】本文介绍了第91届奥斯卡最佳影片《绿皮书》,这个影片讲述了一位黑人雇主和白人司机一路向南的旅行故事。如今,很多美国人还记得《吉姆·克劳法》存在的那个年代,但是他们可能不知道《绿皮书》。它是这个故事被遗忘的部分。
1.wrote 由once可知,此处要用一般过去时,故答案为wrote。
2.a a manner of..意为“…….的方式”,在句中与前面的a station对应,句意为:“幸福不是你要达到的一个车站,而是一种旅行的方式。”故答案为a。
3.was adapted 此处表示“这部电影改编自一个真实的故事”,且时间为过去,故答案为was adapted。
4.to form enable sb to do sth表示“使某人能够做某事”。故答案为to form。
5.to true to sth意为“精确的,真实的,逼真的”,为固定搭配。故答案为to。
6.when句意为:拉萨尔说这些话的时间是在1876年到1963年之间,当时非洲裔美国人经历了一个非常不同且困难的时期。此处The time是先行词,关系词代替The time在非限制性定语从句中作时间状语,故答案为when。
【方法总结】
分析定语从句关键抓住三点:第一,找准先行词;第二,看关系词在定语从句中所作的成分;第三,选择关系代词或者关系副词。先行词往往是名词、代词或者句子,如本题中先行词为名词The time,再分析关系词在定语从句中所作的成分,将先行词The time代入从句中,可知关系词只能作时间状语,因此选择关系副词when。
7.racial 此处应用形容词修饰名词 segregation,故答案为racial。
8.businesses 由a list of可知,这里要用名词复数。business意为“公司,企业”时为可数名词。故答案为businesses。
9.probably 此处用副词probably作状语,修饰谓语动词。故答案为probably。
10.forgotten句意为:这是故事中被遗忘的一部分。由文意可知,forget和part之间是逻辑上的被动关系,“绿皮书”是被人们遗忘的部分,所以用过去分词来作前置定语。故答案为forgotten。
