【答案】

小题1be seen

小题2without

小题3but/which

小题4do

小题5freely

小题6the

小题7walking

小题8】because

小题9in

小题10healthier

【解析】

小题1be seen考查动词。根据后面,Sometimes people are surprised to see him,可知Daniel Davila是被人们看见在散步的,两者之间构成被动语态,所以用“be动词+动词过去分词”表示被动。同时can是情态动词,后面动词应用原形,故填be seen。

小题2without考查介词。without意为“没有”。根据后文,walk barefoot,可知Daniel Davila散步时不穿鞋子和袜子的,是光着脚的。故填without。

小题3but/which考查连词。根据后文,doesn’t mind at all,可知他根本不在乎别人的眼光,与前面构成相反意思,所以可以用but连接;或者将这句话看成是非限制性定语从句,中间有逗号,which用来指代前面他不穿鞋子人们很惊讶的看他的这件事情。故填but/which。

小题4do考查固定结构。So do 740 other members意为“其他740位成员也这样做”,这是固定用法,就像“so do I表示我也是”一样,故填do。

小题5freely考查副词。freely用来形容前面的动词live,具有强调的意味,强调生活很自由,故填freely。

小题6the 考查最高级。根据后面,most important,可知这里是最高级,最高级的一种形式是“the +most+形容词”,故填the。

小题7walking考查动词。根据后面动词allows,可知从句中已经有一个动词,所以这里是动名词做主语的形式,walk和人之间构成主动关系,所以用动词-ing的形式表示,故填walking。

小题8】because考查连词。根据后面,they stay dry,可知这句话是对前面the feet do not smell so much,的一种说明,所以这里应该用表示解释说明原因的连词,故填because。

小题9in考查介词。in good shape意为“在良好的形状下”,是固定用法,故填in。

小题10healthier考查比较级。根据空格后面,than,可知这里是比较级,所以用形容词的比较形式,故填healthier。

【题目】Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are concerned about their own appearance and actions too much. Negative thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: What kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?

It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people unfavorably. A person's self-concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a deep effect on all areas of their lives.

Shy people, who have low respect, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need faith that they are doing "the right thing". Shy people are very sensitive to criticism. It makes them feel inferior(自卑). They also find it difficult to be pleased by praises because they believe they are unworthy of praise. A shy person may respond to a praise with a statement like this one: "You're just saying that to make me feel good, I know it's not true.” It is clear that, while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.

Can shyness be completely got rid of, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determination since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self respect. It is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths. Each one of us has his or her own characteristics. We are interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our chances for a rich and successful life.

【题目】For thousands of years,we have looked for ways to measure time. Early humans found that the regular movements of the sun,the earth,the moon,and the stars made good ways to measure time. The rising and setting of the sun were used to distinguish辨别 day from night.

But,eventually,people needed to tell time more accurately,or exactly. So,by using the sun’s position in the sky,they divided the day into dawn,morning,midday and evening.

Then it was noted that the sun cast a changing shadow as it moved across the sky. Time could be told more accurately by setting up a stick and marking the positions of the sun’s shadow. It was the ancient Greeks who divided each position of this “sundial(日晷)” into hours.

But the sun doesn’t always shine. So,for the past 6,000 years,many other ways of keeping time have been tried. Slowburning candles were divided into hours,and the hourglass was invented. When all the sand in the top of an hourglass has shifted to the bottom,an hour has passed.

Later,the pendulum(摆钟),with its regular backandforth movement of weights,was used to move the hands on a clock. Pendulums are still used in grandfather clocks.

Today,even more accurate clocks are in use,such as batteryoperated quartz clocks(石英钟),digital clocks,and clocks run by electrical tuning forks and tiny atoms. These atomic clocks are the most accurate clocks ever invented. The exact time can be kept to within 1 second a century.

【1】Humans in the old days used ________ to tell day from night.

【2】A sundial works by ________.

【题目】The first kind of air transportation was not a plane. It was a balloon. People traveled by balloon 100 years before there were planes or jet aircraft. Those early days of ballooning were exciting, but they were also dangerous. Sometimes the balloons fell suddenly. Sometimes they burned. However, the danger did not stop the balloonists.

The first real balloon flight was in France in 1783. Two Frenchmen, the Montgolfier brothers, made a balloon. They filled a very large paper bag with hot air. Hot air is lighter than cold air, so it goes up. The Montgolfier's hot air balloon went up 1,000 feet in the sky.

Later that same year, two other Frenchmen ascended (上升) in a basket under a balloon. They built a fire under the balloon to make the air hot. This made the balloon stay up in the air for a few hours. But their balloon was tied to the ground. So it could not go anywhere.

The first free balloon flight was in December, 1783. The balloon flew for 25 minutes over Paris. It traveled about 5.5 miles. Flying a balloon is not like flying a plane. The balloon has no engine and therefore no power of its own. The wind directs the balloon. It goes where the wind blows. The pilot can control only the altitude of the balloon to find the right wind direction. That is how a good pilot controls where the balloons goes.

Soon balloonists tried longer flights. A major event in the history of ballooning was the first long flight over water. In 1785, an American and a Frenchman flew over the English Channel.

During the nineteenth century, ballooning became a popular sport. There were balloon races in Europe. Balloons were also used by scientists to study the air and by armies in wartime. After the airplane was invented, people lost interest in balloons. Planes were much faster and easier to control. But some people today still like to go up in balloons. High up in the balloon basket, they find quietness. They have wonderful view of the world below.

【1】The first kind of air travel was in .

A. a jet plane B. an aircraft

C. a balloon D. a ship

【2】Many early balloonists lived in .

A. England B. the United States

C. Italy D. France

【3】The balloon rises if the air inside get .

A. colder B. hotter C. out D. fell

A. use the engine

B. find the right wind direction
