Eighty-seven years ago our fathers 1 (bring) forth a new nation, and were dedicated to the proposition that all men are born equal.

But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, consecrate and hallow this ground. The brave men, living 5 dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our poor power 6 (add) or detract. It is for us, the living, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they have 7 (noble) carried on. It is for us to devote 8 (we) to the great task 9 (remain) before us. From these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for 10 they here gave the last full measure of devotion. We here highly determine that these dead shall not have died vainly and that this government shall not perish from the earth.

(2024吉林长春外国语学校期中)
How's this for a coincidence(巧合) Charles Darwin and Abraham Lincoln were born in the same year, on the same day: Feb. 12, 1809. Although people hardly think of them together, we want to say that they belong together. It's not just because they were both great men, and not because they happen to live at the same time. Rather, it's because the scientist and the politician each started a revolution that changed the world.
They were both revolutionaries in the sense that both men changed the realities when they were born. They seem and sound modern to us, because the world they left behind them is more or less the one we still live in. So, considering the joint greatness of their contributions and the coincidence of their birthday, it is hard to wonder: who was greater It's an apples and oranges—or Superman vs. Santa—comparison. But if you limit the question to influence, very quickly the balance tips in Lincoln's favor.
As great as his book on evolution is, it does no harm to remember that Darwin hurried to publish The Origin of Species because he thought he was about to be scooped (抢先发表) by his fellow naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace. Lincoln, however, is unique. True, his election as the president did cause the recession (经济衰退), division and the civil war, but that war seemed certain to happen—not a question of if but when. Certainly we know what happened after he was murdered: Reconstruction was organized and then abandoned, leaving the issue of racial (种族的) equality unsolved for another century.
Surely we should not deny Darwin's accomplishment. But their same birthday gave us a great opportunity to observe these men of their time.
1. Why does the author say Charles Darwin and Abraham Lincoln belong together
A.They were born on the same day. B.They lived in the same period of time.
C.They started revolutions changing the world. D.They were both great men in the history.
2. What does the author mean by saying “It's an apples and oranges—or Superman vs. Santa—comparison” in Paragraph 2
A.It is hard to tell which one is greater as they are both outstanding.
B.The comparison between Darwin and Lincoln is easy and obvious.
C.It is difficult to compare them as they are as famous as Superman and Santa.
D.There is no point comparing them because they were born on the same day.
3. How does the author describe Lincoln's contribution to the world
A.Narrow. B.Aggressive. C.Independent. D.Groundbreaking.
4. What can we learn from the passage
A.Lincoln's success in election caused reconstruction.
B.Lincoln had tried to solve the racial problem.
C.Darwin was unique compared with Lincoln.
D.Darwin's theory is similar to Lincoln's belief.

Breaking the boundaries
Back in 2014, Deepa Singh followed a set routine. 1 Then she would wait for her sister to throw some clothes and a pair of shoes from the window. She'd walk to a school, change into a loose T-shirt and trousers and practise breaking—a street dance style.
This routine lasted for a year until she participated in competitions and showed videos to her parents. “ 2 Seeing my skills, they realised that I was serious about my career choice,” says Singh, 23, whose stage name is B-Girl Flow Raw. Last year, she represented India at Queen 16, a breaking festival in Germany with participants from Spain, Russia and Korea.
In India, many women shy away from breaking, says Singh. Every move—from simple movements to backflips—is physically demanding. “ 3 Both boys and girls look awkward when dancing, but it's usually the girls who feel more out of place. This builds up the pressure and they give it up, so only a minority of young girls practice the dance,” adds Johanna Rodrigues, also known as B-Girl Jo, 23.
For the B-Girls, breaking is not just about competing but a journey of self-expression and self-exploration. They all think that it is rewarding. Amita Vighe, 27, an engineer who has been moonlighting as B-Girl Amy since 2009, says,“ 4 ”
There's less competition and more connections among the dancers. Early this year, when Rodrigues won a competition against a B-Boy from Mumbai, she received messages from women breakers from across India. She concludes, “ 5 ”
A.It was a victory for all of us.
B.It takes a year to perfect the basics.
C.Boys do better than girls in breaking.
D.My parents have been supporting my decision.
E.Every evening, she would secretly leave her home.
F.They believed that breaking was only meant for boys.
G.Breaking has built my confidence, helping me stand out in my career.

(2024湖南长沙麓山国际实验学校第一次月考)
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。
Living in the shadow of my two elder sisters at college who already had their lives planned out since they were little, I was always undecided about everything. As a teenager, I was fickle (反复无常的). I would like one thing for a week and then hate it the next. But I was constantly searching for the beginning of the rainbow. Changing my dream from a vet to an astronaut, I thought there were various options available to me. However, my parents would shake their heads and repeatedly ask me such questions as, “Why can't you be more like your sisters What are you going to do with your life Aren't you interested in anything at all ” After a couple of shrugs (耸肩), my parents usually stopped talking. I was not sure if they gave up or anticipated my dull reactions. I often responded, “I couldn't answer all of your questions now.”
Actually, my parents just had high expectations that never seemed to be fulfilled. Plus, like other parents, they just wanted to give the best to me and expected me to achieve success. The arguments with my parents seemed childish. One day, my mother made her thoughts clear, “Your grades aren't high enough. No schools are going to want you, dear. We didn't pay so much money for nothing.” Hesitating for a while, I said, “No matter what you say, I believe I will enter a good college.” Still, I let my emotions control myself.
Certainly, I had never planned not to go to college. After another debate with my mom, I decided to make a change. No longer would I sit back and let my parents mistake me as a bad boy. It was time to take action.
I knew it was a crucial year at high school.Releasing my feelings, I began to collect all the knowledge I had learned and review it with all my heart. I didn't argue with my parents any more, but instead turned to my sisters for help and tried my best to study. Finally, I took the National College Entrance Examination with ease and confidence.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
A few days later, I received a call from my school, saying my college acceptance letter had arrived.
My parents excitedly said behind me, “Well, open the envelope!”
答案与分层梯度式解析
Unit 4 Breaking boundaries
Part 3 Developing ideas & Presenting ideas
Ⅰ.1.realistic 2.rewarding 3.mounted 4.Division(s)
Ⅱ.1.名词;关节 句意:在他停止跑步后的几年里,他的关节疼痛越来越严重。
2.形容词;联合的,共同的 句意:只有通过他们的共同努力,父母和孩子才能弥合他们之间的代沟。
3.名词;接头,接合处 句意:这两块布料黏合得真好,你几乎看不出接缝。
Ⅲ.1.in 考查固定短语。句意:杰夫在爱荷华州打猎,但枪声把狗吓跑了。在接下来的四天里,他一直在寻找他的狗,但一无所获。in vain徒劳,白费力气。
2.In 考查固定短语。句意:从更广泛的意义上说,成功是一种实现人生梦想和目标的能力。in a larger sense在更广泛的意义上。
3.at 考查介词。句意:他们最终赢得了战斗,但在人力和物资上付出了巨大的代价。at a great cost付出巨大代价。
4.nobly 考查副词。设空处作状语修饰空后的动词live,应用副词。nobly高尚地。
5.influential 考查形容词。句意:这些测试表明,当我们做决定时,社会环境有非常大的影响。根据句意及空前的is 可知设空处应用形容词作表语,被副词extremely修饰。故填influential。
6.helping 考查动名词。句意:她一生致力于帮助穷人,村子里所有的人都很尊敬她。dedicate...to doing sth.意为“奉献……做某事”,其中to为介词,其后应跟动名词形式。
7.had seen 考查时态。句意:令玛丽惊讶的是,虽然这是他们第一次见面,但她一点也不紧张,反而感到很放松。在it was the first time that...句型中,that从句应用过去完成时。
Ⅳ.1.had/has a great influence on 2.the division(s) between children and parents 3.It took him almost/nearly an hour to walk 4.to engage in family activities 5.brought forth my good results
能力提升练
Ⅰ.1.brought 考查时态。由时间状语Eighty-seven years ago可知此处应用一般过去时。
2.engaged 考查过去分词。句中已有谓语are testing,故此处应用非谓语动词。engage与其逻辑主语we之间为被动关系,故此处应用过去分词作状语。
3.lives 考查名词的复数。由前面的their可以判断此处应用名词,结合语境可知此处表示许多人的生命,life在此处表示“生命”,为可数名词,表示复数意义,应用复数形式。
4.What 考查主语从句。分析句子结构可知is前面为主语,故设空处引导主语从句。从句缺少doing的宾语,表示“我们现在正在做的事情”,应用what。设空处位于句首,首字母应大写。
5.and 考查并列连词。此处指“活着的人和死去的人”,表示并列,应用and连接。
6.to add 考查动词不定式。the power to do sth.为固定搭配,意为“做某事的力量/能力”。故填to add。
7.nobly 考查副词。根据空后的carried on可知此处用副词作状语,修饰动词短语。
8.ourselves 考查代词。devote oneself to...为固定搭配,意为“献身于……,致力于……”,因此应用反身代词,we的反身代词是ourselves。
9.remaining 考查现在分词。句意:我们应该献身于仍需去做的伟大任务。句中已有谓语动词is,设空处应用非谓语动词。由语境可知此处表示“留给我们去做的伟大任务”,则设空处作定语修饰the great task,remain在此处表示“仍需去做(或处理)”,是不及物动词,应用现在分词作后置定语,故填remaining。
易错归因
此题容易误填remained。remain意为“仍需去做”时是不及物动词,不能用于被动语态。
10.which 考查定语从句。“for 10 they here gave the last full measure of devotion”为“介词for+关系代词”引导的定语从句,修饰先行词that cause,关系代词指代前面的名词cause,应用which。
Ⅱ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了在新西兰怀帕举办的中国主题的书画展。
1.enjoyed 考查时态。句意:9月15日,在怀帕举行的中国主题书展上,新西兰的艺术爱好者们欣赏了两千本来自中国的书和两百多幅来自两国的画作。根据时间状语“on Sept. 15”及语境可知,本句描述过去的事,应用一般过去时,故填enjoyed。
2.marking 考查现在分词。句意:作为纪念中新建交50周年一系列联合活动的一部分,此次书展展出了收集自中国40个城市的217件艺术品。分析句子结构可知,“As a portion of...between China and New Zealand”为介词短语作状语,As表示“作为”;the book exhibition为主句主语,included为主句谓语动词,217 artworks为主句宾语,其后为从句。主句中已有谓语动词,则设空处应用非谓语动词。由语境可知,第2空作定语,修饰空前的名词activities,mark在此处意为“纪念,庆贺”,与activities之间为逻辑上的主动关系,因此应用现在分词作后置定语,故填marking。
3.that/which 考查定语从句。句意同上。分析句子结构可知,第3空前为名词短语,该空后缺少主语,该空起连接作用,且由语境可知“ 3 have been collected from 40 cities in China”作定语修饰空前的名词短语,表示“从中国的40个城市收集来的217件艺术品”,由此可知空格处引导定语从句,先行词为217 artworks,指物,从句中缺主语,因此使用关系代词that或which引导定语从句。故填that或which。
4.themes 考查名词的数。句意:本次展览的策展人、新西兰Prime Media集团总裁王丹娣表示,展览包括两千多本英文书,主题从政治理论、医学信息到中国传统文化习俗。theme在此处意为“主题”,是可数名词,其前没有冠词修饰,且由下文的“ranging from political theory...cultural practices”可知,应该使用复数形式,故填themes。
5.traditional 考查形容词。句意同上。设空处修饰空后的名词practices,应用形容词作定语;由语境可知空处表示“传统的”,应用tradition的形容词形式traditional。故填traditional。
6.a 考查冠词。句意:他鼓励新西兰人拿起一本书,开始理解它。book是可数名词且此处表泛指,指“一本书”,应用不定冠词;book是以辅音音素开头的单词,故填a。
7.deeply 考查副词。句意:中国驻新西兰大使馆公使衔参赞叶素表示,他对展出的作品印象深刻。设空处修饰动词impressed,应用副词作状语;deep的副词形式deeply (深深地)符合语境,故填deeply。
8.on 考查介词。句意同上。on display为固定短语,意为“展出”,故填on。
9.collection 考查名词。句意:展览还包括一系列儿童书籍和一批诗集。根据空前的不定冠词a和空后的介词of可知空处应用名词;collect的名词形式为collection,a collection of意为“一批……”,符合语境,故填collection。
10.will be donated 考查时态和语态。句意:预计这些书将捐赠给当地的图书馆和学校,这些画作将捐赠给当地的儿童医院。分析句子结构可知,that引导主语从句,其中第二个and连接两个并列分句“the books...and schools”和“the paintings...hospitals”,设空处为前一分句的谓语动词。由后一分句中的“will be given”可知前一分句也应用一般将来时;books与donate之间为被动关系,表示“被捐赠”,应用被动语态,故填will be donated。
【高频词汇】 1.anniversary n.周年纪念日 2.artwork n.艺术品 3.collect v.收集 4.range v.包括(从……到……)之间的各类事物;(在一定范围内)变化,变动 n.一系列;范围 5.represent v.代表 6.insight n.洞悉;了解;洞察力 7.embassy n.大使馆 8.enhance v.加强
【熟词生义】 1.mark v.纪念;庆贺 2.practice n.习俗
Ⅲ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文,介绍了同年同月同日生的达尔文和林肯的贡献,相比之下,林肯的贡献更具开创性。
1.C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“...they belong together. It's not just because...”和“Rather, it's because the scientist and the politician each started a revolution that changed the world.”可知,达尔文和林肯各自发起了一场改变世界的革命,所以说他们是一类人(belong together)。故选C。
2. A 推理判断题。根据第二段第三句的内容“因此,考虑到他们共同的伟大贡献和他们生日的巧合,很难去想谁更伟大”可知,作者说“这是一个苹果和橘子,或者超人和圣诞老人之间的比较”的意思是很难说他俩谁更伟大,因为他们都很杰出,就像无法分辨出苹果和橘子哪个更重要、超人和圣诞老人谁更伟大一样。故选A。
3.D 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Lincoln, however, is unique.”可知,林肯的贡献是独一无二的,也就是说林肯的贡献是开创性的。A.有限的;B.积极进取的;C.独立的;D.开创性的;创新的。故选D。
4.B 推理判断题。根据第三段中最后一句的内容“当然,我们知道在林肯被谋杀后发生了什么:重建被组织起来,然后又被放弃,使得(林肯曾致力于解决的)种族平等这一问题在下一个世纪也没有得到解决”可知,林肯曾试图解决种族问题,故选B。
【高频词汇】 1.revolution n.革命 2.contribution n.贡献 3.evolution n.进化 4.unique adj.独特的
5.murder v.谋杀 6.abandon v.中止,放弃 7.equality n.平等;均等;相等 8.deny v.否认 9.accomplishment n.成就
【熟词生义】 1.tip v.倾斜 2.observe v.纪念
【差距词汇】 revolutionary n.革命家
长难句
原句 They seem and sound modern to us, because the world they left behind them is more or less the one we still live in.
分析 本句是主从复合句。逗号后是because引导的原因状语从句。从句的主语是the world,“they left behind them”为省略关系词的定语从句,修饰the world;is是系动词,the one作表语,“we still live in”是省略关系词的定语从句,修饰the one。
译文 对我们来说,他们似乎听起来很现代,因为他们留下的世界或多或少是我们仍然生活的世界。
Ⅳ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了印度女孩跳霹雳舞,打破了霹雳舞的性别界限。
1.E E项内容“Every evening,she would secretly leave her home.”与该空后的“Then she would wait for her sister...She'd walk to a school...practise breaking”构成一连串的动作,指出Singh每天的固定行程是偷偷溜出家门去练舞,符合此处语境。E项中的Every evening与该空前的a set routine相呼应。
2.F 根据第一段中Singh偷偷练舞和该空后的“Seeing my skills, they realised that I was serious about my career choice”可知,Singh的父母起初并不能理解女儿的选择,F项提到他们认为霹雳舞只适合男孩,符合此处语境。
3.B 根据该空前的“Every move...is physically demanding.”和该空后的“This builds up the pressure and they give it up”可知,霹雳舞对跳舞者的体力要求很高,B项提到需要一年时间去完善基本功,符合此处语境。
4.G 根据本段中的“breaking is not just about competing but a journey of self-expression and self-exploration”可知,霹雳舞是个自我表达和自我探索的过程,G项提到霹雳舞增强了“我”的自信,帮“我”在职业生涯中脱颖而出,符合此处语境。
5.A 根据本段的主题句“There's less competition and more connections among the dancers.”可知,舞者之间更多的是情感纽带而非互相竞争,而该空前提到Rodrigues赢得了比赛,并收到了来自印度各地女性霹雳舞选手的信息,故A项“这是属于我们所有人的胜利”符合此处语境。
【高频词汇】 1.routine n.惯例,常规;一套动作
2.demanding adj.要求高的,费力的;要求极严的
3.awkward adj.笨拙的;令人尴尬的 4.out of place不适当的,格格不入的;不得体的;位置不当的 5.build up增进,加强 6.conclude v.得出结论;推断出;(使)结束 7.secretly adv.秘密地,偷偷地 8.stand out显眼,突出
【差距词汇】 1.shy away (from...) 畏避/躲避(……)
2.moonlight v.(暗中)兼职
长难句
原句 Both boys and girls look awkward when dancing, but it's usually the girls who feel more out of place.
分析 本句是并列复合句,but连接两个并列分句。在but前的分句中,“when dancing”为状语从句的省略;but后的分句使用的是“it's...who...”结构的强调句型,强调的是主语the girls。
译文 男孩和女孩在跳舞时看起来都很笨拙,但通常是女孩觉得更不自在。

One possible version:
A few days later, I received a call from my school, saying my college acceptance letter had arrived. Then I hurried to the school with my parents. It was beyond my wildest dreams till that moment. As a matter of fact, I doubted then whether I was in the dream. I normally dreaded the long walk to the school. But that day was different. There seemed to be something in the air, an electric current, connecting my body to the letter. When I got it, I was really afraid that the envelop was empty. But there was a white package inside. With my heart beating faster, I wondered whether it could really be what was expected.
My parents excitedly said behind me, “Well, open the envelope!”What I grabbed in my hands contained everything I had been waiting for. Slowly, I opened it and a flash of CONGRATULATIONS in bold bright letters caught my eye. A feeling of happiness and relief rushed through my body. I was holding my first offer from a good college. Needless to say, it wouldn't have been possible if it weren't for the countless hours of studying and writing. But most importantly, my parents' constant reminders, in fact, were the best form of education for me. “Thank you, Mom and Dad!” I said gratefully.
