【题目】语法填空

阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

Umbrella is what we easily forget and leave behind in our daily life. When the weather is fine, we certainly dont think of it; only when it's raining, well carry it purposefully. But as soon as the rain stops, most likely well forget 【1】 weve put it. It has to wait patiently and pitifully for【2】 owner to claim it, otherwise itll remain alone as a deserted umbrella.

Once I suddenly found my longtime 【3】 (use) umbrella disappeared I really got lost and regretted quite some time 【4】my own carelessness.

Several days later, out of my 【5】(expect), I saw it quietly stand in a corner of the house where I worked. I was extremely glad to regain it. Looking carefully at it, though it was so familiar 【6】 me, I found for the first time its wooden handle 【7】(wear)out as a result of repeated rain-wash for years. I sought for it only when I needed it. It occurred to me that I should have paid【8】(much) attention to it.

It sets me thinking. Around us there are always people giving us support in silence just like 【9】umbrella that protects us from the rain or any wretched weather. Will gou think of those individuals【10】 have helped you get through difficulty when you are leading a comfortable life?

【答案】

【1】where

【2】its

【3】used

【4】for

【5】expectation

【6】to

【7】had worn\ had been worn

【8】more

【9】an

【10】who\that

【解析】

【1】此处考查地点状语从句。句意:但是雨一停,我们最可能将忘记我们把它放在了哪里。故填where。

【2】owner 前面用形容词性物主代词,句意:它的主人来认领它。故填its。

【3】过去分词作定语,被使用的雨伞,故填used。

【4】因为我自己的粗心而后悔,故填for。

【5】my是形容词性物主代词,后面跟名词,expect是动词,故用它的名词形式expectation。

【6】固定搭配be familiar to 为某人所熟悉,故填to。

【7】根据前面的found 是一般过去时态,而后面的for years 表示多年,故前后联系,可知用过去完成时态,因此填had worn\ had been worn。

【8】句意:我突然想起我本应该对它更多的关注。故此处用比较级,所以填more。

【9】umbrella 是元音开头,所以一把雨伞应用an。

【10】考查定语从句。those individuals 作先行词,指人,定语从句缺少引导词和主语,故填who\that。

【题目】Their cheery song brightens many a winter's day. But robins(知更鸟) are in danger of wearing themselves out by singing too much. Robins are singing all night一 as well as during the day, British-based researchers say.

David Dominoni, of Glasgow University, said that light from street lamps, takeaway signs and homes is affecting the birds' biological clock, leading to them being wide awake when they should be asleep.

Dr Dominoni, who is putting cameras inside nesting boxes to track sleeping patterns, said lack of sleep could put the birds' health at risk. His study shows that when robins are exposed to light at night in the lab, it leads to some genes being active at the wrong time of day. And the more birds are exposed to light, the more active they are at night.

He told people at a conference, "There have been a couple of studies suggesting they are increasing their song output at night and during the day they are still singing. Singing is a costly behaviour and it takes energy. So by increasing their song output, there might be some costs of energy."

And it is not just robins that are being kept awake by artificial light. Blackoiids and seagulls are also being more nocturnal. Dr Dominoni said, "In Glasgow where I live, gulls are a serious problem. I have people coming to me saying `You are the bird expert. Can you help us kill these gulls?'.During the breeding(繁殖)season, between April and June, they are very active at night and very noisy and people can't sleep."

Although Dr Dominoni has only studied light pollution, other research concluded that robins living in noisy cities have started to sing at night to make themselves heard over loud noise.

However, some birds thrive(兴旺)in noisy environments. A study from California Polytechnic University found more hummingbirds in areas with heavy industrial machinery. It is thought that they are capitalizing on their predators(天敌)fleeing to quieter areas.

【1】According to Dr Dominoni's study, what causes robins to sing so much?

A. The breeding season.

B. The light in modem.

C. The dangerous environment.

D. The noise from heavy machinery.

【2】What is the researchers' concern over the increase of birds' song output?

A. The environment might be polluted.

B. The birds' health might be damaged.

C. The industry cost might be increased

D. The people's hearing might be affected.

【3】What does the underlined word "nocturnal" in Paragraph 5 mean?

A. Active at night.

B. Inactive at night.

C. Active during the day.

D. Inactive during the day.

【4】Why do some birds thrive in noisy environments?

A. Because there are fewer dangers.

B. Because there is more food to eat.

C. Because there is less light pollution

D. Because there are more places to take shelter.

How to Succeed in Science

To succeed in science, you need a lot more than luck. In my view, you have to combine intelligence with a willingness not to follow conventions when they block your path forward. Thus, these have come to be my rules for success.

1. 【1】

That might sound proud, but the fact is that you must always turn to people who are brighter than yourself. It’s like playing any game. Even as a child, I never wanted to play games with anyone who was as bad as I was. If you win, it gives you no pleasure. And in the game of science or life, the highest goal isn’t simply to win; it’s to win at something really difficult. 2

2. Take risks

To make a huge success, a scientist has to be prepared to get into deep trouble. If you are going to make a huge jump in science, you will very likely be unqualified to succeed by definition. 3 This can be more than personally upsetting.

3. Never do anything that bores you.

My experience in science is that someone is always telling you to do things, and then leave you alone. I’m not good enough to do well in something I dislike. 4

It’s very hard to succeed if you don’t want to be with other scientists you have to go to key meetings where you spot key facts that would have escaped you. And you have to chat with your competitors, even if you find them objectionable.

So my final rule is: 5

A. Meet challenges with great courage.

B. If you can’t stand to be with your real peers, get out of science.

C. Put another way, it’s to go somewhere beyond your ability and come out on top.

D. Be sure you always have someone to save you from a deep mess.

E. Avoid foolish people.

F. In fact, I find it hard to do well in something I like.

G. Besides, you even have to be prepared to disbelieve your scientific heroes.
