5.which among ________ The Old Man and the Sea stood out为非限制性定语从句;先行词many novels and short stories为物,设空处应填关系代词,在从句中作among的宾语,故填which。
4.based be based on为固定搭配,意为“根据;基于”,此处在句中作后置定语,用非谓语形式。

Part Ⅰ Vocabulary & Grammar
刷语法填空
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
1.making 句意为:间隔年意味着上大学前休假一年,这并不是一个新概念,但现在人们关注的重点是要充分利用从学术生活中脱离出来的这段时间。根据设空处前的介词on可知,此处应用动名词形式作介词宾语。故填making。
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了很多学生选择间隔年的原因和意义——积累对未来生活有帮助的技能和经验。
答案及解析
2.are 句意为:仅仅在沙滩上闲逛或者背包环游世界的日子早已一去不复返了。根据句意可知,此处描述客观事实,用一般现在时;本句为倒装句,主语为复数名词days,故填are。

It looks good on their CVs and eventually makes them more employable. Actually, the experience of the gap year 7________ (become) much more practical recently, which is partly due to university participation increasing, and partly due to the demands on developing skills.
Part Ⅰ Vocabulary & Grammar
刷语法填空
4.what 句意为:去做一些有成效的事情正是学生们被鼓励做的,因为工作经验或慈善工作等可以帮助他们获得在大学中竞争一席之地时所需的技能。分析句子结构可知,设空处引导表语从句,在从句中作do的宾语,意为“……的事情”,应用what引导。故填what。
5.them 句意见上一题解析。分析句子结构可知,设空处为helps的宾语,应用they的宾格。故填them。
6.for 句意见第4题解析。compete for为固定搭配,意为“为(夺取)……比赛/竞争”,其中for意为“为了”,表示目的。故填for。
7.has become 句意为:实际上,最近间隔年期间的经验变得更加实用了,部分是因为(这些经验)在大学中的参与度提升,部分是因为对发展技能的要求。根据句意及时间状语recently可知,此处应用现在完成时,表示过去发生的动作对现在的影响;主语the experience是第三人称单数,根据主谓一致原则可知,应填has become。

Part Ⅰ Vocabulary & Grammar
刷语法填空

9.But/Yet 句意为:但一些专家认为,没必要“花钱如流水”,也就是说你不需要旅行很远,甚至可以通过做有偿工作来挣钱。后文中的some experts argue that… 和前文中的some students worry they can’t afford it是转折关系。故填But/Yet。
10.paid 句意见上一题解析。分析句子结构可知,此处应用非谓语动词形式作定语,pay和所修饰的名词work之间是逻辑上的被动关系,故用其过去分词作定语,意为“有偿的”。故填paid。paid也可以理解为过去分词的形容词化,将其看作形容词,意为“有报酬的”。

体裁:议论文 题材:选择大学
[黑龙江哈尔滨六中2021高二期中]Many of us were delighted to learn that a high school senior Kwasi Enin was admitted to all eight Ivy League universities. To our surprise, he wasn’t excited as expected, but appeared extra calm. He announced that he would revisit the universities to find the best fit given his interests in music and medicine. He also wanted to compare their financial aid packages.
Kwasi’s success story is rare, but his reaction is not. After the admission letters arrive at home, students have 30 days to really think about what kind of school would help them grow as a person, which school would best prepare them for the future, and at which school they would be happiest. And they also have to think about whether they can afford the school they choose.
Part Ⅱ 拓展阅读训练
刷阅读理解
But how to answer the questions about which school is the best match Some young people are attracted to large universities with great school spirit and a list of offerings. But besides those advantages, many of these universities focus on graduate work and research, with undergraduates taught mostly by part time instructors. Others are attracted to smaller boarding schools with discussion based classes. But some of these schools will have much limitation for students who want a high energy city life experience.
Many students today seem to think they should pick the university where they will get the diploma that will help them get the most highly paid job. This is a sad misunderstanding of what a college education should provide. A good college education should help give students the ability to overcome any difficulty and prepare them to thrive in society by helping them to form a creative mind and spirit that will continue to develop far beyond their university years. So when you choose a college, you should consider if it is filled with useful learning to help create new spaces for different possibilities of growth.

2.What can we infer from Paragraph 2

C.Top universities are the first choice for most students.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。文章以夸西·埃宁为例说明了许多学生面临的大学选择问题,作者认为良好的大学教育应该培养学生克服困难的能力,使学生在社会上茁壮成长,最好的大学应该是有助于学生在大学之后继续发展的。
1.D 细节理解题。根据第一段中的He announced that he would revisit the universities to find the best fit given his interests in music and medicine. 可知,夸西·埃宁在选择大学时考虑了自己的兴趣。故选D项。
答案及解析
2.B 推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知,夸西面对录取通知的反应在学生中并不少见。录取通知书送到家里后,学生们有30天的时间来真正思考什么样的学校能帮助他们成长,哪所学校能帮助他们为未来做最好的准备,在哪所学校他们会最快乐。他们也必须考虑他们能否负担得起他们选择的学校。由此可推知,许多学生都面临像夸西这样的选择。故选B项。

[四川成都蓉城高中教育联盟2022高二期末联考]Did you ever notice how your favourite clothes lose their colour and seem thinner with time Washing may be to blame.
According to a new study, clothes lose fewer dyes (染料) and fibres when washed in shorter cycles and in cool water. That means they will fade and thin less.These wash settings are greener, too—good for the environment.
As clothes are being washed in a washing machine, some of the fabric’s fibres loosen and are washed away. Clothes also lose some of dyes that coloured them and the dyes and fibres lost in the wash water will end up in the environment.
“There is some sort of environmental impact on almost everything you do,” says Lucy Cotton from the University of Leeds. Her research team put together two batches of clothes for tests. One had dark coloured T shirts. The other had shirts in lighter colours. The team washed each batch in the same machine but used two different cycles. The first cycle lasted 30 minutes and used 25°C water. The second cycle used 40°C water and ran for 85 minutes.

After each cycle, the team collected fibres in the wash water and from an extra empty wash cycle afterward. They found that all shirts lost more colours when washed in hot water in the longer cycle. Room temperature water released fewer dyes than the hotter water did. The shirts also lost more tiny fibres in the longer, hotter cycle. Those microfibres matter because they give fabric its weight and strength. When the fabric loses too many microfibres, it will thin and weaken.Those microfibres will also pollute waterways.
And, just as microfibres add up to tons of waste, even small steps to cut waste will also add up. “Everything that you can do can make a difference,” Cotton says, “even if it is something as simple as changing your wash settings.”

[重庆八中2021适应性考试]Next week, Pushpa Nagaraj will appear for her 720th exam. But she won’t be taking the exam for herself. Since 2007, she has helped hundreds of visually challenged students take exams by acting as their scribe (抄写员), reading them the questions and then writing down the answers they give.
When Ms Nagaraj was growing up in Bangalore, the IT capital of India, her father lost his job after a back injury. The family suddenly found itself struggling. She thought she’d have to drop out of school. Luckily, her mother managed to raise enough money to educate her through high school. Today, she’s a project coordinator for an IT firm.
One day, as she was helping a few visually damaged children cross the road, it struck her how difficult even everyday tasks could be for them, let alone finishing their education. Ms Nagaraj wanted to help those children.

Exercise 1 刷阅读理解
In India, most children with sight challenges do not have access to specialised schooling. Even for those who attend mainstream classes, timed exams—key for Indian educational institutions, where scores are especially important—present additional difficulties. “Many of them balk at the thought of writing exams and drop out,” says Ms Sundararaman, a local education expert. “And so, their education comes to a sudden stop, midway.” Having a scribe can be the difference between passing and failing.
Over the past 12 years, word about Ms Nagaraj’s work has spread—so much that she now gets requests from people from all over India. She has also set up a network of volunteers that posts requests through a WhatsApp group.
Ms Nagaraj is keenly aware of ongoing challenges, the chief of which is that, every once in a while, she has to refuse requests from students to give them the answers during exams. Another challenge is to expand the circle of scribes. Despite these, she is very grateful for having the opportunity to help others. “I have no complaints. Actually, I feel very blessed,” she says.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了印度一位名叫纳加拉杰的女士致力于做志愿抄写员,帮助盲人学生在考场上读题和记录答案,使他们得以继续接受教育的故事。
1.B 细节理解题。根据第二段中She thought she’d have to drop out of school. Luckily, her mother managed to raise enough money to educate her through high school.可知,纳加拉杰艰难地完成了高中学业,故选B项。
答案及解析
2.A 词义猜测题。根据画线词上文In India, most children with sight challenges do not have access to specialised schooling. Even for those who attend mainstream classes, timed exams—key for Indian educational institutions, where scores are especially important—present additional difficulties.以及后文And so, their education comes to a sudden stop, midway.可知,对盲人学生来说,考试中如果没有抄写员的帮助是很难完成考试的,尤其在印度的教育机构很重视考试分数的情况下,因此他们一想到要参加笔试就会变得很犹豫,进而辍学。故画线词意为“变得犹豫”。故选A项。

C.The problems of students dropping out of school in India.
D.An Indian woman helping disabled children by being a scribe.
3.A 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Another challenge is to expand the circle of scribes.可推知,纳加拉杰女士必须克服的挑战是抄写员的数量有限。故选A项。
答案及解析
4.D 主旨大意题。根据第一段Next week, Pushpa Nagaraj will appear for her 720th exam.But she won’t be taking the exam for herself… and then writing down the answers they give.并结合全文可知,本文主要讲述了印度的纳加拉杰女士致力于做志愿抄写员,帮助盲人学生在考场上读题和记录答案,使他们得以继续接受教育的故事。由此可知,D项(一位印度女士当抄写员来帮助残疾儿童)最能概括本文主旨。故选D项。

10.but/yet 句意为:确实,让机器人为我们做所有的工作是很棒的,但我们不应该太贪婪,而应该小心我们的愿望。前后句之间为转折关系,所以用表示转折关系的连词but/yet。
