On a snowy winter night, a bus with 45 passenger had an accident because the wet road. And all of them were trapping in the bus and what is worse, the bus ran out of gas and it was very cold in it. They could do nothing but to wait for help. A man who lived nearby saw that had happened. He and some villagers succeeded in open the door and helped all of them out of the bus. He took them to his home but offered food and water and even some warm clothes to the children. They spent two days in their home and finally help came. All of them were thankfully for their help.
【答案】
【1】passenger--- passengers
【2】because后加of
【3】trapping--- trapped
【4】is---was
【5】去掉but后面的to
【6】that--- what
【7】open--- opening
【8】but--- and
【9】their--- his
【10】thankfully--- thankful
【解析】
试题分析:
【1】passenger--- passengers 句意:45名乘客,用名词复数形式,故把passenger--- passengers。
【2】because后加of the wet road是名词短语,而不是句子,故在because后加of。
【3】trapping--- trapped be trapped in被困在---里面,故把trapping--- trapped。
【4】is---was 根据开头On a snowy winter night,可知句子用一般过去时态,故把is---was。
【5】去掉but后面的to but前面有实意动词do,故去掉but后面的to。如果but前面没有实意动词do(包括各种形式),则but后面的to不能去掉。
【6】that--- what 此处考查的是动词后面的宾语从句,从句没有引导词,并且缺少主语,故把that--- what。
【7】open--- opening 固定搭配:succeed in doing成功做某事,故把open--- opening。
【8】but--- and 句意:他把他们带回家并提供给他们食物。此处表示递进关系,故把but--- and。
【9】their--- his 句意:在他家里渡过了两天,故把their--- his。
【10】thankfully--- thankful be动词后面用形容词作表语,故把thankfully--- thankfu。
【学法指导】
but作“除了---”讲时,前面若有实意动词do做(包括各种形式),故去掉but后面的to;如果but前面没有实意动词do(包括各种形式),则but后面的to不能去掉。He did nothing but stand there.他除了在那里站着什么也没做。He had no choice but to stand there. 他除了在那里站着别无选择。

Antibiotics, insulin, organ transplantation, HIV treatments and heart-bypass surgeries—it reads like an A to Z of medical progress. But the major progress has something in common: they were all developed and tested by using animals. Actually, animals are used for research in a variety of settings. Whether or not humans should use animals for testing purposes, however, is a controversial subject.
Animal testing allows researchers to develop new medicine and treatments, advancing the field of medicine and improving the health of society. For example, many drugs used to treat or prevent cancer, HIV, diabetes, etc, have resulted from tests performed on animals. Many advocators of animal testing support the practice for this reason, even if they do not support testing, cosmetics or other non-essential substances on animals. No one chooses to use animals where there in no need. In fact, animal research has contributed to 70 percent of Nobel prizes for physiology or medicine.
Animal testing also enables scientists and researchers to test the safety of medicine and other substances with which humans have regular contact. Drugs, for example , may create significant risks to humans, so testing them on animals first gives researchers a chance to determine their safety before human trials are performed. While scientists understand the differences between humans and animals, the similarities are considered significant enough to produce relevant data that they can then apply to humans. This, animal testing reduces harm to humans and saves lives, not only because the exposure to risky substances is minimized, but because some new medicine and treatments have positive effects on humans’ overall quality of life.
However, a significant number of animals are harmed or die as a result of experiments and testing. Unfortunately, many of the substances used on animal subjects never receive approval for human use or consumption. Those who oppose animal testing consider this a very important point , because saving humans from suffering is no excuse for the death of laboratory animals. Opponents also argue that animals are dissimilar enough from humans to make the results of animals tests unreliable. Related criticism is that testing causes stress in animals, meaning that they do not react to experimental substances in the same way that they might in natural circumstances, making the results of experiments less valid
Using animals as research subjects is also expensive because they require food, shelter, care and treatment in addition to the costs of experimental substances. Long-term or multi-stage tests can increase the costs of the practice as well. The actual price paid for animals is also worth considering. In this respect, researchers take on an additional burden.
