【解析】 本文为说明文。主要讲述美国国旗上的颜色,星星及十三个星条各自象征的意义。

1 考查固定搭配。红色、白色和蓝色的颜色,以及美国国旗上的星条,都代表着不同的东西。along with…为固定搭配,意为“和一起随着..,以外(还),连同。故填with

2 考查名词。红色代表力量和勇敢,白色代表美德。形容词strong在句中作动词 represents 的宾语,形容词不能作宾语,而要用其名词形式strength,故填strength。

3 考查名词。蓝色代表勤奋和正义。分析句子可知,本句中的just是形容词(意为“公正的”)在句中作stands for 的宾语,做宾语要用名词justice,故用其名词形式justice。

4 考查非谓语。国旗上有五十颗星,每一颗代表每个州,代表五十个州曾联合起来…。分析句子可知,本句的动词represent在句中修饰one for each state的。二者是主动关系,用动词的ing形式,所以填representing。

5考查语境。 根据第4小题可知,五十个州联合成一个联邦。故填into

6 考查动词不定式。这十三个条纹是为了提醒十三个殖民地的人民,他们曾团结起来为从英国独立出来而战。分析句子可知,要用动词不定式表目的,故用动词不定式to remind。

7考查谓语动词。根据历史和可知,十三个殖民地人民曾经联合一起为从英国独立出来而战,故用一般过去时 joined。

8考查定语从句的关系词。每年的74日,美国都会庆祝独立日,那时全国各地都可以看到星条旗。分析本句可知,本句中的独立日(celebrates Independence Day)被定语从句___8___ the Stars and Stripes ___9___ be seen all over the country修饰,而独立日在从句中作时间状语,故填when。

9 考查情态动词。根据句意可知,美国庆祝独立日时,全国各地都有可能(can)看到星条旗。故填can。

10考查非谓语作状语。在全国各地都能看到星条旗,被夜空中燃放烟火所点亮分析句子可知,星条旗是被点亮。根据本句中的__10__ (light) by fireworks…可知,… by sb/sth.要用被动形式。因此本空要用过去分词。lit/lighted

【题目】 In 2011, the old style Malta buses were taken off the road and replaced by modern vehicles. Most of the old buses were deserted, a few were sold, and about 100 of them were put into storage in the hope of showing them in a museum at some stage.

A pre-2011 visit to Malta wouldn’t have been complete without a ride on one of the colorful buses. Until 1973 you could tell the destination of the bus just by looking at its color — Sliema was green and white, Zabbar was red and white with a blue stripe(条纹)etc. . Later, the buses all had numbers. For a while, they were all painted green and white before the ‘final’ orange, yellow and white.

In their prime, walking around the Triton fountain at the Valletta bus station, you would have found it very difficult to see two buses of exactly the same design. Most of them had locally built bodies. On the front of the buses carried names like Dodge, Leyland, Bedford etc. . You were equally likely to find football pennants(锦旗)and the like decorating the cabs. Real bus experts would have recognized that these were there mainly for decorative reasons, and were seldom an accurate reflection of the vehicle’s origins.

Nowadays much more modern buses are to be found at the Floriana bus station. They are more environmentally friendly and possibly even more comfortable than the older types. However, I miss the old buses. I remember, when you boarded your bus, you had to prepare the correct change to pay the usually bad-tempered driver as you got on. If you were seated anywhere near the front, you would have noticed that most drivers sat well to the right of their steering wheel. The reason for this, as any Maltese would tell you, was to leave space for their pet to sit alongside them. I wonder where the pet sits these days.
