B
Most
kids
can
walk
into
a
library
or
bookstore
and
find
hundreds
of
books
to
read.
But
it’s
not
that
simple
for
kids
who
are
blind.
They
read
in
a
different
way.
Jenny
Lee
and
other
braille
(盲文)
transcribers
take
the
printed
words
of
a
book
and
change
them
into
a
code
of
raised
dots.
Blind
people
can
read
these
dots
with
their
fingers.
To
know
what
braille
feels
like,
take
a
ballpoint
pen
and
press
hard
onto
a
piece
of
paper.
Now
turn
the
paper
over
and
touch
the
raised
dot
made
by
the
pen
point.
When
Lee
first
saw
the
dots
of
the
braille
alphabet,
she
wondered
if
she’d
ever
be
able
to
read
and
write
them
easily.
She
took
a
class
and
practised
hard
for
about
six
months
before
she
passed
the
final
exam:
she
had
to
convert
35
pages
of
a
book
into
braille.
Today,
Lee
works
for
a
publisher.
One
of
her
jobs
is
to
change
children’s
books
into
braille.
To
do
this,
Lee
first
types
the
story
into
a
computer
and
then
uses
a
computer
program
to
translate
it
into
the
braille
code.
Next,
she
looks
over
the
translation
several
times
to
make
sure
it’s
mistake-free.
After
that,
a
copy
of
the
braille
story
is
printed
with
a
special
printer.
Then
Lee
and
a
proofreader
work
together
to
find
and
correct
any
mistakes.
When
a
book
is
ready,
many
copies
of
it
are
printed.
Afterwards,
some
are
sold
through
websites
and
others
are
sent
to
libraries.
Sometimes,
going
over
a
story
again
and
again
gets
tiring.
That’s
when
Lee
takes
a
break.
Several
of
Jenny
Lee’s
co-workers,
who
are
blind,
use
guide
dogs.
When
the
animals
aren’t
working,
Lee
likes
spending
a
few
minutes
with
them.
To
her,
playing
with
dogs
“is
always
a
pick-me-up
in
the
middle
of
the
day”.
“I
love
this
mission,”
Lee
says.
“Through
my
brain
power
and
my
fingers,
I
am
putting
the
dots
into
some
kid’s
hands.”
4.
How
does
the
writer
explain
what
braille
feels
like?
A.
By
explaining
what
braille
words
look
like.
B.
By
describing
how
blind
people
read
books.
C.
By
asking
readers
to
experience
it
themselves.
D.
By
giving
examples
of
different
braille
words.
5.
What
was
Lee’s
first
reaction
to
braille?
A.
She
was
excited
to
get
a
new
skill.
B.
She
was
amazed
at
the
clever
idea.
C.
She
realized
she
could
teach
it
herself.
D.
She
believed
it
would
be
difficult
to
learn.
6.
What
does
the
underlined
word
“pick-me-up”
in
paragraph
4
most
probably
mean?
A.
A
discussion
to
release
work
stress.
B.
Something
to
improve
one’s
appetite.
C.
Something
to
help
restore
one’s
spirit.
D.
A
free
ride
accompanied
with
a
guide
dog.
7.
What
does
Lee
think
of
her
job?
A.
Profitable
and
hopeful.
B.
Tiring
but
meaningful.
C.
Relaxing
and
helpful.
D.
Boring
but
challenging.
C
The
start
of
the
U.S.
Atlantic
hurricane
season
is
just
over
two
weeks
away
and
forecasters
are
expecting
particularly
high
activity
this
year.
With
warmer
than
usual
conditions
expected
in
the
North
Atlantic
this
summer,
meteorologists
have
predicted
that
the
season
could
produce
eight
or
more
hurricanes.
While
forecasters
cannot
predict
how
many
hurricanes
—
if
any
—
will
make
landfall,
the
potential
for
dangerous
storms
to
strike
the
southern
and
eastern
coasts
brings
an
additional
problem
for
authorities
already
struggling
with
the
COVID-19.
Experts
say
that
the
COVID-19
is
affecting
the
capabilities
of
the
Federal
Emergency
Management
Agency
(FEMA)
and
other
organizations
involved
in
responding
to
natural
disasters.
Retired
U.S.
Army
Lieutenant
General
Jeffrey
Talley,
who
now
leads
global
efforts
on
disaster
management
at
IBM’s
Center
for
the
Business
of
Government,
said
that
with
FEMA
and
other
authorities
engaged
with
responding
to
the
COVID-19,
resources
will
be
limited
if
a
hurricane
strikes.
“When
we
look
at
a
disaster...
I
think
of
it
in
terms
of
how
we
prepare
for,
respond
to
and
recover
from
those
types
of
events,”
Talley
said.
“Right
now
we’re
in
the
middle
of
the
response
of
COVID-19.
None
of
us
are
really
sure
how
long
it’s
going
to
last
and
how
the
response
to
disasters
is
going
to
be
different,
say,
two
months
from
now,
six
months
from
now,
so
on
and
so
forth,”
he
said.
According
to
Talley,
the
COVID-19
could
complicate
the
response
to
a
hurricane
by
interrupting
the
flow
of
emergency
supplies
to
areas
where
they
are
urgently
needed
at
crucial
moments.
Social
distancing
and
stay-at-home
orders
will
also
force
authorities
along
the
south
and
east
coast
to
rethink
how
they
manage
people
who
must
leave
their
homes
in
the
event
of
a
disaster.
While
many
states
are
already
lifting
some
lockdown
restrictions,
social
distancing
will
still
be
important
for
many
months
to
come.
8.
When
will
the
first
hurricane
possibly
arrive
in
US
this
summer?
A.
In
about
eight
days.
B.
In
about
six
months.
C.
In
about
two
months.
D.
In
more
than
two
weeks.
9.
According
to
Talley,
how
could
COVID-19
influence
the
response
to
a
hurricane?
A.
More
people
will
leave
home
to
fight
against
a
hurricane.
B.
Rescue
materials
might
not
reach
disaster
areas
sometimes.
C.
Lockdown
can
greatly
reduce
damage
and
injury.
D.
The
pandemic
makes
it
harder
to
predict
hurricanes.
10.
What
can
we
infer
from
the
last
paragraph?
A.
People
throughout
the
country
no
longer
need
to
stay
at
home.
B.
The
state
governments
are
confident
about
tackling
hurricanes.
C.
Authorities
along
the
coasts
will
stick
to
the
former
orders.
D.
It
is
necessary
to
keep
social
distance
in
the
coming
months.
11.
What
is
the
best
title
for
the
text?
A.
More
Destructive
Hurricanes
to
Be
Expected.
B.
More
Difficult
to
Forecast
Hurricanes
Coming.
C.
COVID-19
to
Worsen
Hurricane
Response.
D.
Social
Distancing
Needed
in
Coming
Months.
D
People
often
plan
to
receive
medical
exam
but
don’t,
resulting
in
increasing
health
care
cost.
A
surprising
number
of
citizens
mean
to
complete
tax
forms
in
time
but
forget
to,
forcing
them
to
pay
unnecessary
fines.
Many
families
miss
the
government
deadline
to
complete
financial
aid
forms,
losing
out
on
aid
available
for
child
care.
How
can
policymakers
help
people
follow
through
on
important
tasks?
They
use
carrots
and
sticks:
bonuses,
late
fees,
or
regulations.
These
methods
can
be
clumsy,
and
often
aren’t
effective
for
the
situation
at
hand.
Reminding
people
to
form
simple
plans.
however,
provides
a
low-cost,
simple,
and
powerful
tool.
Evidence
is
growing
that
providing
prompts,
which
push
people
at
key
times
to
think
through
how
and
when
they
will
follow
through,
make
people
more
likely
to
act
on
tasks
of
importance.
In
one
early
randomized
study
on
tetanus
vaccination
rates,
for
example,
a
team
of
social
psychologists
showed
that
28%
of
Oxford
University
seniors
got
the
shot
after
being
encouraged
to
review
their
weekly
schedules
and
to
select
a
possible
time
to
stop
by
the
health
center.
They
were
also
given
a
list
of
times
when
shots
were
available
and
a
map
showing
the
health
center’s
location.
Only
3%
of
the
seniors
got
the
shot
when
simply
informed
about
how
effective
the
shots
were.
People
who
make
a
plan
gain
an
advantage
from
their
psychological
forces.
Specifically,
they
can
overcome
the
tendency
to
put
off
as
well
as
the
tendency
to
be
overly
optimistic
about
the
time
it
will
take
to
accomplish
a
task.
Imagine
Sarah
who
wants
to
renew
a
car
insurance,
but
it
will
require
two
hours
of
travel
to
and
from
a
garage.
Making
a
plan
may
lead
her
to
lake
two
hours
off
and
have
her
responsibilities
covered
by
her
colleagues
while
she
is
away.
Moreover,
she
will
be
less
likely
to
underestimate
the
time
needed
to
accomplish
the
task—a
particularly
common
problem
for
complex
tasks.
People
mistakenly
believe
that
their
strong
intentions
are
enough
to
push
them
to
perform
desired
behaviors.
These
psychological
research
results
stress
the
need
for
policy
decisions
that
encourage
plan
making
and
improve
social
welfare.
12.
What
phenomenon
is
described
in
paragraph
1?
A.
Heavy
burden
of
daily
chores.
B.
Lack
of
task
management
skills.
C.
Disappointment
of
over-ambitions.
D.
Failure
to
achieve
original
intentions.
13.
What
does
the
randomized
tetanus
vaccination
study
show?
A.
People
need
to
think
deeply
before
they
act.
B.
Specific
reminders
help
people
accomplish
plans.
C.
Awareness
of
task
significance
matters
in
planning.
D.
Seniors
need
encouragement
to
have
vaccination
shots.
14.
What
psychological
benefit
can
people
get
from
making
a
plan?
A.
They
are
realistic
in
the
time
required.
B.
They
are
optimistic
about
the
outcome.
C.
They
are
confident
to
overcome
hardship.
D.
They
are
careful
with
task
arrangements.
15.

may
be
the

readers
of
this
text?

Medical
staff.

the
earth
very
soon
if
we
don’t
do
anything
to
save
them.
There
are
many
reasons
why
species
become
endangered.
Habitat
destruction
is
the
main
reason
why
animals
become
endangered
and
this
happens
in
two
ways.
When
humans
move
into
a
new
area,
the
animals’
habitat
is
destroyed
and
there
is
nowhere
for
them
to
live
and
nothing
to
eat
because
humans
chop
down
trees
and
build
houses
and
farms.
______17______
Chemicals
in
rivers
and
poisons
on
farms
cause
the
destruction
of
animals’
homes
and
food
supplies.
_________18_________
Animals
have
been
brought
to
the
edge
of
extinction
because
they
are
killed
for
their
highly-valued
meat,
fur,
bones
or
skin,
or
just
for
sport.
Overfishing
has
resulted
in
many
large
sea
creatures
like
whales
and
sharks
becoming
endangered
species.
________19________
We
should
take
care
not
to
pollute
natural
areas,
and
farmers
or
companies
who
destroy
animal
habitats
should
face
severe
financial
penalties.
The
public
can
help
out
by
refusing
to
buy
any
products
made
from
these
animals’
body
parts.
Governments
can
help,
too,
by
making
it
against
the
law
to
hunt,
fish
or
trade
in
endangered
species.
They
can
also
provide
funding
for
animal
sanctuaries,
to
protect
animals
from
extinction
by
breeding
more
endangered
animals,
which
they
later
release
into
the
wild.
______20______
A.
Animal
habitats
are
also
destroyed
because
of
pollution.
B.
Endangered
species
are
also
the
result
of
hunting
and
fishing.
C.
Eventually,
all
the
creatures
on
Earth
will
enjoy
being
together.
D.
Recent
changes,
however,
have
helped
to
improve
the
situation.
E.
So
what
can
individuals
and
governments
do
to
protect
endangered
species?
F.
Extinction
happens
when
the
last
of
the
species
has
died
out
and
there
will
be
no
more.
G.
If
we
all
cooperate
and
take
these
steps,
we
will
protect
these
animals
for
future
generations.

Look
at
this
picture.
It′s
the
London
Tea
Trade
Centre,
located
in
the
North
Bank
of
the
River
Thames.
It
is
the
center
of
important
industry
in
the
everyday
life
of
the
British
people.
Tea
is
the
British
nation
drink.
Every
man,
woman
and
children
over
ten
years
of
age,
has
on
average
over
four
cups
a
day,
or
some
1,500
cups
annually.
About
30
percent
of
the
world′s
export
of
tea
make
its

to
London.
Britain
is
by

the
larger
importer
of
tea
in
the
world.
The
second
picture
shows
you
that
how
tea
is
tasted
here
before
it′s
sold.
Different
types
of
tea
are
laying
out
on
a
long
table
and
tasted
by
skilled
tea-tasters
before
they
are
sold.
The
tasters
generally
taste
tea
with
milk,
since
that
is
why
the
majority
of
British
people
drink
its
tea.

Most
kids
can
walk
into
a
library
or
bookstore
and
find
hundreds
of
books
to
read.
But
it’s
not
that
simple
for
kids
who
are
blind.
They
read
in
a
different
way.
Jenny
Lee
and
other
braille
(盲文)
transcribers
take
the
printed
words
of
a
book
and
change
them
into
a
code
of
raised
dots.
Blind
people
can
read
these
dots
with
their
fingers.
To
know
what
braille
feels
like,
take
a
ballpoint
pen
and
press
hard
onto
a
piece
of
paper.
Now
turn
the
paper
over
and
touch
the
raised
dot
made
by
the
pen
point.
When
Lee
first
saw
the
dots
of
the
braille
alphabet,
she
wondered
if
she’d
ever
be
able
to
read
and
write
them
easily.
She
took
a
class
and
practised
hard
for
about
six
months
before
she
passed
the
final
exam:
she
had
to
convert
35
pages
of
a
book
into
braille.
Today,
Lee
works
for
a
publisher.
One
of
her
jobs
is
to
change
children’s
books
into
braille.
To
do
this,
Lee
first
types
the
story
into
a
computer
and
then
uses
a
computer
program
to
translate
it
into
the
braille
code.
Next,
she
looks
over
the
translation
several
times
to
make
sure
it’s
mistake-free.
After
that,
a
copy
of
the
braille
story
is
printed
with
a
special
printer.
Then
Lee
and
a
proofreader
work
together
to
find
and
correct
any
mistakes.
When
a
book
is
ready,
many
copies
of
it
are
printed.
Afterwards,
some
are
sold
through
websites
and
others
are
sent
to
libraries.
Sometimes,
going
over
a
story
again
and
again
gets
tiring.
That’s
when
Lee
takes
a
break.
Several
of
Jenny
Lee’s
co-workers,
who
are
blind,
use
guide
dogs.
When
the
animals
aren’t
working,
Lee
likes
spending
a
few
minutes
with
them.
To
her,
playing
with
dogs
“is
always
a
pick-me-up
in
the
middle
of
the
day”.
“I
love
this
mission,”
Lee
says.
“Through
my
brain
power
and
my
fingers,
I
am
putting
the
dots
into
some
kid’s
hands.”
4.
How
does
the
writer
explain
what
braille
feels
like?
A.
By
explaining
what
braille
words
look
like.
B.
By
describing
how
blind
people
read
books.
C.
By
asking
readers
to
experience
it
themselves.
D.
By
giving
examples
of
different
braille
words.
5.
What
was
Lee’s
first
reaction
to
braille?
A.
She
was
excited
to
get
a
new
skill.
B.
She
was
amazed
at
the
clever
idea.
C.
She
realized
she
could
teach
it
herself.
D.
She
believed
it
would
be
difficult
to
learn.
6.
What
does
the
underlined
word
“pick-me-up”
in

one’s
appetite.
C.
Something
to
help
restore
one’s
spirit.
D.

C
The
start
of
the
U.S.
Atlantic
hurricane
season
is
just
over
two
weeks
away
and
forecasters
are
expecting
particularly
high
activity
this
year.
With
warmer
than
usual
conditions
expected
in
the
North
Atlantic
this
summer,
meteorologists
have
predicted
that
the
season
could
produce
eight
or
more
hurricanes.
While
forecasters
cannot
predict
how
many
hurricanes
—
if
any
—
will
make
landfall,
the
potential
for
dangerous
storms
to
strike
the
southern
and
eastern
coasts
brings
an
additional
problem
for
authorities
already
struggling
with
the
COVID-19.
Experts
say
that
the
COVID-19
is
affecting
the
capabilities
of
the
Federal
Emergency
Management
Agency
(FEMA)
and
other
organizations
involved
in
responding
to
natural
disasters
Retired
U.S.
Army
Lieutenant
General
Jeffrey
Talley,
who
now
leads
global
efforts
on
disaster
management
at
IBM’s
Center
for
the
Business
of
Government,
said
that
with
FEMA
and
other
authorities
engaged
with
responding
to
the
COVID-19,
resources
will
be
limited
if
a
hurricane
strikes.
“When
we
look
at
a
disaster...
I
think
of
it
in
terms
of
how
we
prepare
for,
respond
to
and
recover
from
those
types
of
events,”
Talley
said.
“Right
now
we’re
in
the
middle
of
the
response
of
COVID-19.
None
of
us
are
really
sure
how
long
it’s
going
to
last
and
how
the
response
to
disasters
is
going
to
be
different,
say,
two
months
from
now,
six
months
from
now,
so
on
and
so
forth,”
he
said.
According
to
Talley,
the
COVID-19
could
complicate
the
response
to
a
hurricane
by
interrupting
the
flow
of
emergency
supplies
to
areas
where
they
are
urgently
needed
at
crucial
moments.
Social
distancing
and
stay-at-home
orders
will
also
force
authorities
along
the
south
and
east
coast
to
rethink
how
they
manage
people
who
must
leave
their
homes
in
the
event
of
a
disaster.
While
many
states
are
already
lifting
some
lockdown
restrictions,
social
distancing
will
still
be
important
for
many
months
to
come.

C.
In
about

According
to
Talley,
how
could
COVID-19
influence
the
response
to
a

More
people
will
leave
home
to
fight

D
People
often
plan
to
receive
medical
exam
but
don’t,
resulting
in
increasing
health
care
cost.
A
surprising
number
of
citizens
mean
to
complete
tax
forms
in
time
but
forget
to,
forcing
them
to
pay
unnecessary
fines.
Many
families
miss
the
government
deadline
to
complete
financial
aid
forms,
losing
out
on
aid
available
for
child
care.
How
can
policymakers
help
people
follow
through
on
important
tasks?
They
use
carrots
and
sticks:
bonuses,
late
fees,
or
regulations.
These
methods
can
be
clumsy,
and
often
aren’t
effective
for
the
situation
at
hand.
Reminding
people
to
form
simple
plans.
however,
provides
a
low-cost,
simple,
and
powerful
tool.
Evidence
is
growing
that
providing
prompts,
which
push
people
at
key
times
to
think
through
how
and
when
they
will
follow
through,
make
people
more
likely
to
act
on
tasks
of
importance.
In
one
early
randomized
study
on
tetanus
vaccination
rates,
for
example,
a
team
of
social
psychologists
showed
that
28%
of
Oxford
University
seniors
got
the
shot
after
being
encouraged
to
review
their
weekly
schedules
and
to
select
a
possible
time
to
stop
by
the
health
center.
They
were
also
given
a
list
of
times
when
shots
were
available
and
a
map
showing
the
health
center’s
location.
Only
3%
of
the
seniors
got
the
shot
when
simply
informed
about
how
effective
the
shots
were.
People
who
make
a
plan
gain
an
advantage
from
their
psychological
forces.
Specifically,
they
can
overcome
the
tendency
to
put
off
as
well
as
the
tendency
to
be
overly
optimistic
about
the
time
it
will
take
to
accomplish
a
task.
Imagine
Sarah
who
wants
to
renew
a
car
insurance,
but
it
will
require
two
hours
of
travel
to
and
from
a
garage.
Making
a
plan
may
lead
her
to
lake
two
hours
off
and
have
her
responsibilities
covered
by
her
colleagues
while
she
is
away.
Moreover,
she
will
be
less
likely
to
underestimate
the
time
needed
to
accomplish
the
task—a
particularly
common
problem
for
complex
tasks.
People
mistakenly
believe
that
their
strong
intentions
are
enough
to
push
them
to
perform
desired
behaviors.
These
psychological
research
results
stress
the
need
for
policy
decisions
that
encourage
plan
making
and
improve
social
welfare.

the
face
of
the
earth
very
soon
if
we
don’t
do
anything
to
save
them.
There
are
many
reasons
why
species
become
endangered.
Habitat
destruction
is
the
main
reason
why
animals
become
endangered
and
this
happens
in
two
ways.
When
humans
move
into
a
new
area,
the
animals’
habitat
is
destroyed
and
there
is
nowhere
for
them
to
live
and
nothing
to
eat
because
humans
chop
down
trees
and
build
houses
and
farms.
______17______
Chemicals
in
rivers
and
poisons
on
farms
cause
the
destruction
of
animals’
homes
and
food
supplies.
_________18_________
Animals
have
been
brought
to
the
edge
of
extinction
because
they
are
killed
for
their
highly-valued
meat,
fur,
bones
or
skin,
or
just
for
sport.
Overfishing
has
resulted
in
many
large
sea
creatures
like
whales
and
sharks
becoming
endangered
species.
________19________
We
should
take
care
not
to
pollute
natural
areas,
and
farmers
or
companies
who
destroy
animal
habitats
should
face
severe
financial
penalties.
The
public
can
help
out
by
refusing
to
buy
any
products
made
from
these
animals’
body
parts.
Governments
can
help,
too,
by
making
it
against
the
law
to
hunt,
fish
or
trade
in
endangered
species.
They
can
also
provide
funding
for
animal
sanctuaries,
to
protect
animals
from
extinction
by
breeding
more
endangered
animals,
which
they
later
release
into
the
wild.
______20______
A.
Animal
habitats
are
also
destroyed
because
of
pollution.
B.
Endangered
species
are
also
the
result
of
hunting
and
fishing.
C.
Eventually,
all
the
creatures
on
Earth
will
enjoy
being
together.
D.
Recent
changes,
however,
have
helped
to
improve
the
situation.
E.
So
what
can
individuals
and
governments
do
to
protect
endangered
species?
F.
Extinction
happens
when
the
last
of
the
species
has
died
out
and
there
will
be
no
more.
G.
If
we
all
cooperate
and
take
these
steps,
we
will
protect
these
animals
for
future
generations.

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述的是人们一直梦想着有一辆能在天空中飞驰的汽车。日本的SkyDrive公司成功地进行了载人飞船的小规模试飞。对于飞行飞机的成功试飞,专家们感到非常兴奋。这种空中交通有广阔的前景。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在上周向记者们展示的一段视频中,一辆看起来像带有螺旋桨的摩托车的车辆升到了离地面两米高的地方。分析句子结构结合句意可知,此处应用过去分词作后置定语修饰video,show的过去分词为shown或showed。故填shown/showed。
【42题详解】
考查时态。句意:它在保护区盘旋了四分钟。it指前文的vehicle,前文动词looked用一般过去式讲过去发生的事,所以这里也应该用一般过去式,故填flew。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:Tomohiro
Fukuzawa是Skydrive公司的项目负责人。由句意可知此处表示特指,所以名词前应用定冠词the,故填the。
【44题详解】
考查被动语态。句意:他希望到2023年,这种会飞的汽车能变成现实生活中的产品。由句意可知此处表示“被做成”,结合空前的情态动词can,可知此处应用含有情态动词的被动语态结构can
be
done,故填be
made。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意:在世界上100多个飞行汽车项目中,只有少数几个是载人飞行的。由句意及board可知此处使用的是固定搭配“on
board”,表示“在飞机上”,故填on。
【46题详解】
考查连词。句意:该汽车只能飞行5到10分钟,但是如果飞行时间可以延长至30分钟,这种汽车会有更多可能性。由句意可知,上下文为转折关系,应用but连接前后句,故填but。
【47题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这种汽车无需机场等设施即可起飞,可避免交通堵塞,也无需重金雇佣飞行员。分析句子结合空前的介词with可知,此处应填入动名词作宾语,故填having。
【48题详解】
考查形容词。句意:目标是到2030年扩大飞行汽车的商业用途。由句意可知此处应用形容词作定语修饰名词use,commercial
use表示“商业用途”,故填commercial。
【49题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:它还指出了连接偏远地区和在灾难中提供运输的可能用途。region为可数名词单数,由语境可知“偏远地区”应为复数,故填regions。
【50题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:专家们将飞行汽车带给人们的兴奋程度与莱特兄弟开创航空工业、福特T型汽车开创汽车工业的时代相比较。分析句子结构可知,此处包含一个定语从句,先行词the
days表示时间且从句缺少时间状语,所以应用关系副词when引导该从句,故填when。

Look
at

It′s

Trade
Centre,

Bank
of

River
Thames.
It
is
the
center
of
important
industry
in
the
everyday
life
of
the
British
people.
Tea
is
the
British
nation
drink.
Every
man,
woman
and
children
over
ten
years
of
age,
has
on
average
over
four
cups
a
day,
or
some
1,500
cups
annually.
About
30
percent
of
the
world′s
export
of
tea
make
its
way
to
London.
Britain
is
by
far
the
larger
importer
of
tea
in
the
world.

【解析】
【分析】
【详解】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍英国的茶文化。
1.考查介词。句意:那就是伦敦茶叶贸易中心,位于泰晤士河北岸。固定短语:be
located
“坐落在……”,此处表示“坐落在……河岸”,应该用介词on。故把in改在on。
2.考查不定冠词。句意:它是英国人民日常生活中一个重要工业的中心。此处important是以元音因素开头的词,前面加an表示“一”。故在important前加an。
3.考查形容词。句意:茶是英国的国饮。此处drink是名词,意思是“酒,饮料”,由形容词修饰,nation是名词,其形容词是national“国家的,民族的”。故把nation改成national。
4.考查名词的单复数。句意:每个男人、女人和10岁以上的儿童平均每天喝4杯以上,或每年大约1500杯。根据Every
man,
woman可知,and后面的名词应该用单数形式。故把children改成child。
5.考查主谓一致。句意:世界上大约30%的茶叶出口到伦敦。这里在说一个客观事实,所以句子用一般现在时。此处是百分数作主语,其中心词是tea,是不可数名词,所以后面的谓语动词用动词的第三人称单数形式。故把make改成makes。
6.考查形容词最高级。句意:英国是世界上最大的茶叶进口国。句中by
far修饰最高级,再根据定冠词the,可知这里用形容词最高级。故把larger改成largest。
7.考查宾语从句。句意:第二幅图向你展示了这里的茶叶在出售前是如何品尝的。动词show后面是how引导的宾语从句,表示“如何”,而that只起引导作用,没有词义。故去掉how前面的that。
8.考查一般现在时的被动语态。句意:不同种类的茶叶被摆放在一个长桌上,在出售之前由有经验的品茶师品尝。此处动词lay的意思是“摆放,安置”,是及物动词,和句子主语Different
types
of
tea之间是被动关系,用一般现在时的被动语态。故把laying改成laid。
9.考查表语从句连接词。句意:品茶师通常在喝茶时加牛奶,因为这是大多数英国人喝茶的方式。此处表示“怎样”喝茶,而不是“为什么”喝茶。故把why改成how。
10.考查形容词性物主代词。句意:品茶师通常在喝茶时加牛奶,因为这是大多数英国人喝茶的方式。根据从句主语the
majority
of
British
people,可知是复数概念,所以后面的形容词性物主代词也要用复数形式。故把its改成their。
