课时作业
Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共10分)
　　(2024·山东潍坊统考)I don’t remember when my love of the protected Great Bear Rainforest began—it’s something that’s always been there,even though I haven’t spent longer than a month there in one go.I grew up in a small village by the sea and planned to study marine biology and live out on the water.Unfortunately,or perhaps fortunately,my lack of scientific talent quickly put paid to that idea,but the love of nature remained and has been an anchor (精神支柱) in my life and in my writing.
The Great Bear Rainforest is not only vast,splendid and wild but also friendly,fun and diverse.I travelled there by myself at the age of 20,planning to spend my 21st birthday camping and hiking in the forests.
I woke up on my birthday in a tent on the edge of the water.Behind me,the trees of this largely untouched wilderness emerged.Endless carpets of pointed trees reached right down to a thin rocky shore.It seemed there was no way in.This wilderness held its secrets close.Stepping from the beach into the forest,I immediately sensed the history of the area—it felt ancient,and it was impossible not to be humbled.
With a guide for safety,I hiked a few miles through the wilderness.The sounds of the forest were everywhere.Birds sang.Insects buzzed.Something bigger moved through the undergrowth and my guide stopped dead and listened.My heart was in my mouth.Then,after some invisible signal,my guide relaxed,and we went on.
We continued the hike and emerged onto a cliff with the most breathtaking view I’ve ever seen.I was from terror to wonder in only a few hundred steps.It was that sense of unsettled ground—of shifting emotion,secrets and awe,beauty and fear—that’s fed my writing across four books,none more so than Children of the Sun,and instilled in me a lifelong love of the wild.
[语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者21岁生日时去大熊雨林旅行的经历,并表达了作者对大自然的热爱。

1.What does the underlined phrase “put paid to” in paragraph 1 mean (　　)
A.Stimulated.　　　　　　 B.Ended.
C.Supported. D.Proved.
B
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线部分前的“my lack of scientific talent quickly”以及其后的“but the love of nature remained and has been an anchor in my life and in my writing (但对大自然的热爱仍然存在,并一直是我生活和写作的精神支柱)”可推测,此处指的是由于缺乏科学天赋作者很快结束了那种想法,故选B。stimulate“激发,促进”。

2.What does “it was impossible not to be humbled” convey in paragraph 3 (　　)
A.I was awed by the powerful nature.
B.I became modest after my 21st birthday.
C.I was attracted by the history of the area.
D.I got curious about the secrets of the forest.

解析:句意理解题。 根据第三段的描述可知,作者认为,这片荒野封闭着它的秘密,似乎让人没有办法进去。从海滩走进森林,作者立刻感受到这个地区的历史——它给人一种古老的感觉;再结合文章最后一段谈到的“正是这种不安的感觉——不断变化的情感、秘密与敬畏、美丽与恐惧”可推知,题干问的那句话表达的意思是“我对大自然的强大感到敬畏”。故选A。

3.Which word can best describe the guide (　　)
A.Conservative. B.Considerate.
C.Practiced. D.Indecisive.

解析:推理判断题。 根据第四段的描述“当有个更大的东西穿过灌木丛时,我的向导突然完全停了下来倾听”和“然后,在一些看不见的信号之后,我的向导放松了下来,我们继续前进”可推知,作者的向导很有经验。故选C。

解析:主旨大意题。 根据文章内容尤其是第一段最后一句中讲到的“但对大自然的热爱仍然存在,并一直是我生活和写作的精神支柱”可知,本文主要告诉读者作者对大自然的爱,故选A。本题易错选C项。部分考生根据第二段“The Great Bear Rainforest is not only vast,splendid...hiking in the forests.(大熊雨林不仅广阔、壮丽、野生,而且还友好、有趣和多样。我在20岁的时候独自去那里旅行,计划在我21岁生日的时候去露营,并在森林里徒步旅行)”认为本文主要讲述了作者21岁生日时去大熊雨林旅行的经历,而错选C项。其实这只是一种表面现象。根据第三段的描述可知,作者通过这次旅行经历,想要表达自己对大自然的敬畏和热爱,故选A项。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
　 [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种流行的秋季户外活动——观赏秋叶,并就观赏秋叶给出了四条建议。

解析:分析文章结构可知,本文为总分结构,空前介绍观赏秋叶是一种流行的秋季户外活动,下文给出具体建议,D项(这里有一些实用的入门建议)符合语境,引出下文。故选D项。
Understand the science
Some trees have green leaves most of the year due to the chlorophyll (叶绿素) they use to absorb energy from the sun. As the day gets colder and shorter in the fall, the leaves get less sunlight, which causes the green to fade and reveals other colors. 2(　　) In the next spring, the trees grow new leaves.

D.Here is some practical advice for getting started.
E.You may preserve the beauty of the fall forever through it.
F.You may first talk to your parents about planning a day out.
G.After the leaves change colors, they eventually fall to the ground.
2.答案:G
解析:根据空前的“As the day gets colder and shorter in the fall, the leaves get less sunlight, which causes the green to fade and reveals other colors.”可知,叶子在秋季会变色。根据空后的“In the next spring, the trees grow new leaves.”可知,下一个春天,树会长出新叶子。G项(这些叶子变色之后,终将落到地上)符合语境,承上启下。故选G项。
Pick a destination
You can experience fall leaves in almost every state in the U.S.A. Depending on where you live, you might want to plan to head out into the countryside or mountains to see the best leaves. 3(　　) With an adult’s help, map out your routes.And then identify scenic places where you can take a hike or set up a picnic to admire the changing leaves up close.

E.You may preserve the beauty of the fall forever through it.
F.You may first talk to your parents about planning a day out.
G.After the leaves change colors, they eventually fall to the ground.
3.答案:F
解析:根据空前的“you might want to plan to head out into the countryside or mountains”以及空后的“With an adult’s help”可知,此处应与在成年人的帮助下计划外出有关。F项(首先,你可以和父母谈谈计划外出一天)承上启下,符合语境,且其中的first与空后的and then相呼应。故选F项。
4(　　)
Once you have your destination set, it’s time to go further planning. You can visit the Internet to see when the leaves are expected to change colors at your planned destination.You’ll notice that leaves first start to change in more northern areas,then later in more southern areas.
A.Time your trip
B.Set the first destination
C.Let’s start learning about leaves.
D.Here is some practical advice for getting started.
E.You may preserve the beauty of the fall forever through it.
F.You may first talk to your parents about planning a day out.
G.After the leaves change colors, they eventually fall to the ground.
4.答案:A
解析:根据本段的“...go further planning...when the leaves are expected to change colors at your planned destination.”可知,本段主要建议在确定目的地后,根据旅行目的地秋叶变色的时间进一步安排旅行计划。A项(为你的旅行安排时间)能够概括本段,适合作为该段小标题。故选A项。
Document your observations
When you head out to look at the fall landscape,keep a visual record of what you see.You can use a camera to take photos of some of your favorite sights.You can get creative, such as by lying on the ground and capturing the colorful leaves above you, or taking a close-up of an especially beautiful leaf. 5(　　)

D.Here is some practical advice for getting started.
E.You may preserve the beauty of the fall forever through it.
F.You may first talk to your parents about planning a day out.
G.After the leaves change colors, they eventually fall to the ground.
5.答案:E
解析:根据本段小标题Document your observations可知,本段主要建议记录你的观察结果。根据本段的“You can use a camera to take photos of some of your favorite sights...or taking a close-up of an especially beautiful leaf.”可知,此处作者建议用相机记录你最喜欢的景象,并列举了一些富有创意的拍照姿势和角度。E项(你可以通过这种方式将秋天的美丽永久保存)解释记录的好处,其中的it指代上文的用相机拍照记录的方式。故选E项。
Ⅲ.语法填空(每小题1.5分,共15分)
[语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了敦煌,它曾是丝绸之路的重要驿站,如今已成为迷人的旅游胜地。游客可在日出时漫步沙漠绿洲,日落时骑骆驼。那里还有敦煌莫高窟和敦煌博物馆供人们游览。
(2024·河北石家庄教学质检二)Dunhuang used to be a major stop along the Silk Road, but is now mainly a fascinating tourist destination.
Those interested 1　　　　　　 Dunhuang’s colorful history will be attracted by the Mogao Caves, one of the city’s main attractions. The entrance to each cave 2　　　　　　　 (block) by a locked door, which can only be opened by expert guides. Behind these doors are caves of all 3　　　　　　 (size)—from very small to absolutely huge. The caves contain thousands of priceless manuscripts and silk paintings, which, upon their discovery, drew much 4_______　 (attend) to the area.
1.答案:in
解析:考查介词。句意:那些对敦煌丰富多彩的历史感兴趣的人将被该城市的主要景点之一敦煌莫高窟吸引。考查固定短语be interested in,故填介词in。
2.答案:is blocked
解析:考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:每个洞窟的入口都被一扇锁着的门堵着,只有专业导游才能打开。空处所在句为主从复合句,which引导定语从句,主句缺谓语动词;此处描述客观情况,故用一般现在时;主语the entrance与block是逻辑上的动宾关系,应用被动语态;主语是第三人称单数,系动词用is。故填is blocked。
3.答案:sizes
解析:考查名词复数。根据空前的all和空后的from very small to absolutely huge可知,此处应用名词复数,表示不止一个尺寸,故填 sizes。
4.答案:attention
解析:考查词性转换。空前有much修饰,应该用不可数名词作 drew 的宾语,draw attention to“吸引对……的注意力”,故填attention。
Also, there are few things as special as walking across the desert oasis at sunrise. 5　　　　　　(catch) this incredible scene, you must rise early. It’s bitterly cold.But as the sun rises atop the golden dunes(沙丘) and paints a 6　　　　　　 (true) picturesque scene, all your efforts pay off. Sunset is a popular time for a camel ride. Get off the camels 7　　　　　　 walk up a rather steep dune overlooking the Crescent Lake. From this position, 8　　　　　　(regard) as the best one, the incredible sunset is awe-inspiring.
5.答案:To catch
解析:考查非谓语动词。句意:为了捕捉这一令人难以置信的场景,你必须早起。结合句意可知,此处为非谓语动词短语作目的状语,注意句首首字母大写,故填 To catch。
6.答案:truly
解析:考查词性转换。此处表示“描绘出一幅真正古色古香的场景”;空后 picturesque“古色古香的”是形容词,应用副词修饰,故填truly。
7.答案:and
解析:考查连词。句意:从骆驼上下来,爬上一个俯瞰月牙泉的相当陡峭的沙丘。本句是祈使句,get off 和 walk up 两个动词短语并列且表示顺承,故填并列连词and。
8.答案:regarded
解析:考查非谓语动词。句意:从这个被认为最佳的位置看,让人难以置信的日落令人敬畏。分析句子结构可知,此处为非谓语动词短语作定语,修饰position,且position与regard之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,故应用过去分词regarded。
No trip to Dunhuang is complete without visiting the Dunhuang Museum, 9　　　　　　　 it’s possible to put all of the city’s historical sites into proper historical context. The museum is expansive, 10　　　　　　 (contain) many original artworks. Here, you are bound to be amazed by Dunhuang’s rich culture.
9.答案:where
解析:考查定语从句。句意:没有参观敦煌博物馆的敦煌之旅是不完整的,在那里可以将这座城市的所有历史遗迹置于适当的历史背景中。 分析句子结构可知,该空引导定语从句修饰先行词 Dunhuang Museum,且在定语从句中作地点状语,故填关系副词where。
10.答案:containing
解析:考查非谓语动词。句意:博物馆很大,收藏了许多原作。分析句子结构可知,空处构成非谓语动词短语作状语。contain意为“包含”,和主语the museum构成逻辑上的主谓关系,应用现在分词形式,故填containing。
