七选五
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。人们总是好奇未来会是什么样，本文作者向我们介绍了人们预测未来的原因及未来50年有可能会发生的变化。
1.E [根据空格前的句子“Then，how can we know what the future will look like？”和空格后的句子“The world has changed a lot in the past 150 years...”可知，空格处讲的是过去和未来的关系，所以E项(为了理解未来，你必须知道过去)符合语境。]
2.B [根据空后的“No.”可知，此处应该为一般疑问句，又根据选项可知，B项(在接下来的150年，这些会改变吗？)是一般疑问句。故选B。]
3.G [根据本段中“Predicting the future is important for two reasons：first we need to start to think about...”可知给出了第一个原因，空格处应该是第二个原因，根据选项可知，G项中的Then用来引出第二个原因。故选G。]
4.F [根据空格前句可知，躺在家里的床上感受到的一切再真实也不是现实，因为现实中没有发生这样的事情，F项中的the experience与空格前句中的the experience相呼应，且前后两句恰好构成转折关系。故选F。]
5.A [本段主要谈论了未来会是什么样子。根据空格后的“What we’ll see in the next 50 years is the transition from an oil－dependent society to a new society.”可知A项(那么，未来会是什么样子呢？)最能概括内容。故选A。]
六、语法填空
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。黄河被称为中华文明的摇篮，保护它是中国领导层最关心的问题之一。
has strengthened [考查时态语态和主谓一致。根据时间状语In the past two decades可知，此处应用现在完成时；且主语the Chinese government为第三人称单数，和strengthen为主动关系。故填has strengthened。]
making [考查非谓语动词。分析可知，此处应用现在分词作结果状语。故填making。]
located [考查非谓语动词。be located at意为“位于”，为固定搭配。所以用过去分词作定语。故填located。]
who [考查定语从句。分析可知，此处为非限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，且先行词为birdwatchers，指人，所以用关系代词who。故填who。]
were found [考查时态语态和主谓一致。根据时间状语Last year可知，此处应用一般过去时。动词find和主语oriental storks构成被动关系，且主语表示复数意义。故填were found。]
As [考查介词。黄河是中国的“母亲河”，所以此处表示“作为”，用介词as；且位于句首，首字母需大写。故填As。]
development [考查词性转换。介词to后应用名词作宾语。故填development。]
fully [考查词性转换。修饰动词considered应用副词。故填fully。]
an [考查冠词。有机整体在此处是第一次提及，所以应用不定冠词。且organic的发音以元音音素开头。故填an。]
to ensure [考查非谓语动词。此处应用不定式to do表目的。故填to ensure。]选必一Unit 2 Looking into the future单元练习

七选五
People have always wanted to know what the future will look like. Then，how can we know what the future will look like？ 1 The world has changed a lot in the past 150 years，but we humans are driven by the same basic needs as we were 150 years ago，such as food，sleep，the feeling of being appreciated and loved.
2 No. In addition，generally speaking，the inventions for the last 150 years have been a human effort for freedom and communication，to be able to get in control of the time and world. Since there is still much to do in this area，this will be the focus at least for the next 150 years.
But why do we need to predict the future？Predicting the future is important for two reasons：first we need to start to think about what kind of future we’d like for ourselves and to pass on the next generation. 3
How about the virtual worlds？It might be possible in the future to experience the sand between your toes，and hear the waves，just lying in your bed at home. 4 So，even if a great invention is there for an affordable price，it’ll never take the place of the common experience if it’s not real.
5 What we’ll see in the next 50 years is the transition from an oil－dependent society to a new society. Here there’ll be new medicine，continued exploration of space，challenges in the climate change，and new inventions that make life a little easier.
A.So what will the future look like then
B.Will this change in the next 150 years
C.Predicting the future can help us in many ways.
D.However，you’ll never get the feeling of being there.
E.Well，to understand the future，you must know the past.
F.However，no matter how real the experience will feel，it doesn’t happen for real.
G.Then we need to know what decisions we need to make today that will give the best result in the future.
