Before there was the written word, there was the language of dance. Dance expresses love and hate, joy and sorrow, life and death, and everything else in between.
1 We dance from Florida to Alaska, from north to south and sea to sea. We dance at weddings, birthdays, office parties and just to fill the time.?
“I adore dancing,”says Lester Bridges, the owner of a dance studio in Iowa. “I can’t imagine doing anything else with my life.”Bridges runs dance classes for all ages. “Teaching dance is wonderful. 2 It’s great to watch them. For many of them, it’s a way of meeting people and having a social life.”?
3 “I can tell you about one young couple,” says Bridges. “They’re learning to do traditional dances. They arrive at the class in low spirits and they leave with a smile. 4 ”?
So, do we dance in order to make ourselves feel better, calmer, healthier?Andrea Hillier says, “Dance, like the pattern of a beating heart, is life. Even after all these years, I want to get better and better. 5 I find it hard to stop!Dancing reminds me I’m alive.”?
A.So why do we dance?
B.Dance in the U.S. is everywhere.
C.If you like dancing outdoors, come to America.
D.My older students say it makes them feel young.
E.I keep practicing even when I’m extremely tired.
F.Dancing seems to change their feeling completely.
G.They stayed up all night long singing and dancing.
答案 1.B 本句为主旨句。空格位于段首。空格后描述跳舞在美国的流行程度:从佛罗里达州到阿拉斯加州,从北到南到大海上。在婚礼上、在生日派对上、在办公室派对上人们都在跳舞。由此可知到处都能看到美国人在跳舞,与B项吻合,所以答案为B项。
2.D 本句为过渡句。空格前作者用直接引语的方式描述了“教舞蹈简直太美妙了”。空格后句子中出现的代词them指代的就是Bridges所教的学生。D项中的students和them相对应,所以答案为D项。即我的那些年龄大的学生说舞蹈让他们感觉自己年轻。
3.A 本句为主旨句。空格位于段首。后面以一对年轻夫妻为例说明了跳舞给他们带来的好处。由此推断出本段是描述跳舞会给一个人的情绪带来巨大的影响,这就是人们喜欢跳舞的原因。这与A项(那么,我们为什么要跳舞呢?)相符。
4.F 本句为细节句。空格前描述这对夫妻刚来到舞蹈班时情绪低落,当他们离开的时候脸上露出了微笑。这都是舞蹈给他们的情绪带来的变化。这与F项(舞蹈好像彻底改变了他们的情绪。)相符。
5.E 本句为过渡句。空格前描述这么多年来Hillier想跳得越来越好。空格后描述Hillier发现自己就是停不下来,跳舞让Hillier知道自己还活着。作为前后过渡的空格处应该与Hillier一直不停地跳舞相关,这与E项(即使当我非常累的时候我还在练习跳舞。)相符。

1.D 根据an unknown person可知,我们大部分人在收到陌生人的短信时,通常会告诉对方发错了,故wrong(错误的)符合语境。
2.A 根据下文内容可知,丹尼斯收到了陌生人发来的短信,故received正确。translate翻译;copy复制;print印刷。

5.D 短信告诉他有一对他不认识的夫妻在医院,等待着自己的孩子的出生。根据下文The baby was born...可知,arrival(到来)符合语境。
6.A “恭喜!但是我认为有人弄错了。”这应该是丹尼斯收到短信后作出的回复,故responded正确。interrupt打断;predict预测;repeat重复。
7.A 下文提到特蕾莎和丹尼斯这位陌生人分享了孩子的照片,由此可见孩子出生后,特蕾莎非常高兴,又向丹尼斯发来了短信,故coming in正确。set out出发,动身;pass down流传;move around走来走去。

18.B 这位年轻人真是我们全家的福气!pity遗憾,可惜;blessing福气;relief安慰;problem问题。

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。

The tree-planting strategy is 2 massive attempt to help fight desertification(沙漠化). 3 (Rough) a million square miles of China—a quarter of the country—is covered in sand.

答案
[语篇解读] 马来西亚一位摄影记者拍摄了中国植树造林改造荒漠计划的实施和取得的成就。
1.hoping 考查非谓语动词。逗号后的部分应该是非谓语动词作状语。hope与其逻辑主语China之间是主动关系,所以要用v.-ing形式。
2.a 考查冠词。句意:植树造林战略是一个大规模的与沙漠化作斗争的尝试。考查不定冠词表示泛指意思:一次大规模尝试。
3.Roughly 考查副词。粗略估计,中国有一百万平方英里的土地被沙漠覆盖着。句首用副词形式来修饰整个句子。
4.has reduced 考查动词时态。空格处是从句的谓语,根据时间状语in recent years可知此处要用现在完成时,且主语是单数形式,故填has reduced。
5.works 考查动词时态。but连接两个并列的谓语动词lives和works。
6.on 考查介词。此处表达:记录下人类对地貌产生的影响。根据have an influence on可知答案为介词on。
7.plans 考查名词复数。他拍摄了中国北方戈壁沙漠的植树造林计划。根据下一句中的代词They可知此处要用复数形式。
8.successful 考查形容词。这些计划在一些地方好像非常成功。空格处要用形容词作表语。
9.where 考查定语从句。空格处引导的是定语从句,修饰先行词places,where在定语从句中充当地点状语。
10.it 考查It is/was+adj.+to do sth.句式。表达“做某事是……的”,其中it作形式主语。
Ⅳ.短文改错

I took a trip to China a few months before. It was a wonderful experience where was beyond description. We spent three weeks visiting Beijing, Shanghai and several other tourist attraction. The closer we approached the centre of China, the much I liked it. Then we went to Hong Kong last week, which I think is different with Beijing. It is noisiest place I have ever seen. And another thing that give me a deep impression was the people there—they were so much friendly. Anyway, the trip itself was interested. I can’t wait to flying to China again.
答案
1.第一句:before→ago 表达从现在起多长时间之前,要用ago,往往与一般过去时或过去进行时连用。
2.第二句:where→which/that 该定语从句修饰先行词experience,从句中缺少主语,所以要用关系代词which/that。
3.第三句:attraction→attractions 此处表达:北京、上海还有其他一些旅游景点,所以要用名词的复数形式。
4.第四句:much→more 根据句首的The closer可知此处考查:the more...,the more...句式:越……越……。
5.第五句:with→from 考查固定搭配:be different from与……不同。
6.第六句:noisiest前加the 此处考查形容词的最高级前要用定冠词the修饰。
7.第七句:give→gave 此处描述过去的旅游经历,因此要用过去时态。
8.第七句:删掉so后的much 此处表达:他们是如此友好。程度副词so修饰adj.,所以要把much去掉。
9.第八句:interested→interesting 总之,这次旅游经历非常有趣。主语为物,应该用interesting修饰。
10.第九句:flying→fly 句意:我迫不及待又想飞到中国去了。在can’t wait to do sth.中to是不定式符号,后跟动词原形。

答案
One possible version:
Nowadays with the popularity of the Internet and mobile phones, there are few opportunities for us to write letters to our friends and family.
Actually, there are some disadvantages of using modern communication tools. On the one hand, we don’t know how to write Chinese characters with our hands because we are used to sending messages or chatting online. On the other hand, we are losing the ability to express our thought in a clear and proper way.
In contrast, the advantages of writing letters are obvious. It is not only a good way to keep our tradition alive, but also reminds us of our friendship forever.
Let’s write letters to our friends and family. Let’s resist texting or chatting online. It is everyone’s duty to protect traditional Chinese culture.
