Yesterday morning, I was surprising to hear that my best friend Allee has been hit by a car and was in hospital. The other day when he was going to cross a street, he was such careful that he didn’t go until he saw the traffic light to turn green. But hardly had he got to the middle of the street while he saw a car suddenly appear on his right-hand side and come towards them. It was too late for Allee to escape. He was hit by the car or was thrown a few meters away. He was sent to the nearest hospital immediately and had operation. When I went to see him, he was out of dangers but still looked pale. I sincere hope he will recover and return to normal as soon as possible.

【答案】

【1】surprising 改成surprised

【2】has 改成had

【3】such改成so

【4】to turn green的to去掉

【5】while改成when

【6】them改成him

【7】or改成and

【8】had和operation中间加an

【9】dangers改成danger

【10】sincere改成sincerely

【解析】

试题分析:本文属于记叙文,叙述了我的朋友Allee被汽车撞倒的详细情况。

【1】surprising 改成surprised 考查形容词。形容词surprising令人惊讶的,通常修饰事物;surprised感到惊讶的,通常修饰人或与人有关的事物。本句主语是I,所以使用形容词surprised。

【2】has 改成had 考查时态。本句的主语是was,可知Allen被撞是在我听说之前就已经发生的事情,所以使用过去完成时had been hit。

【3】such改成so 考查固定句式。so的后面通常要接形容词或副词,构成“so+形容词/副词+that....”。而such的后面通常要接名词或名词短语,构成“such+名词/名词短语+that....”。所以本句中形容词careful的前面要加so。

【4】to turn green的to去掉 考查固定结构。固定结构see sb/sth do sth看见sb/sth做了某事,do前面省略了不定式符号to;本句中的see the traffic light turn green看见交通灯变绿。

【5】while改成when 考查固定句式。句式hardly...when...一...就....;句意:他一到路中央就看见一辆汽车突然出现并朝他冲了过来。

【6】them改成him 考查代词。本文叙述的是Allee被撞的事情,所以使用代词him指代Allee,因为代词them指代复数名词。

【7】or改成and 考查连词。句意:他被汽车撞了并扔掉几米之外。上下文之间是并列关系,所以使用连词and,而不是or。

【8】had和operation中间加an 考查定冠词。本句中名词operation手术是一个可数名词,不定冠词an表示泛指,短语have an operation做手术。

【9】dangers改成danger 考查固定搭配。短语out of danger摆脱危险;句意:当我去看他的时候,他已经脱离了危险,但是看起来仍然脸色苍白。

【10】sincere改成sincerely 考查副词。本句中副词sincerely作为状语修饰谓语动词hope,我真诚地希望....;英语中的形容词通常作为定语或者表语,不能做状语修饰动词。

FIVE WAYS TO KILL YOUR DREAMS

I dedicated the past two years to understanding how people achieve their dreams. When we think about the dreams we have, and the footprint we want to leave in the universe, it is striking to see how big of an overlap there is between the dreams that we have and projects that never happen. So I'm here to talk to you today about five ways how not to follow your dreams.

1______

You know the story, right? The tech guy built a mobile app and sold it very fast for a lot of money. You know, the story may seem real, but I bet it's incomplete. If you go investigate further, the guy has done 30 apps before and he has done a master's on the topic, a Ph.D. He has been working on the topic for 20 years. This is really interesting. I myself have a story in Brazil that people think is an overnight success. I come from a humble family, and two weeks before the deadline to apply to MIT, I started the application process. And, voila! I got in. People may think it's an overnight success, but that only worked because for the 17 years prior to that, I took life and education seriously. Your overnight success story is always a result of everything you've done in your life through that moment.

2______

Constantly, people want to help out, right? All sorts of people: your family, your friends, your business partners, they all have opinions on which path you should take: "And let me tell you, go through this pipe." But whenever you go inside, there are other ways you have to pick as well. And you need to make those decisions yourself. No one else has the perfect answers for your life. And you need to keep picking those decisions, right? The pipes are infinite and you're going to bump your head, and it's a part of the process.

So when your life is going great, you have put together a great team, and you have growing revenue, and everything is set — time to settle. When I launched my first book, I worked really, really hard to distribute it everywhere in Brazil. With that, over three million people downloaded it, over 50,000 people bought physical copies. When I wrote a sequel, some impact was guaranteed. Even if I did little, sales would be okay. But okay is never okay. When you're growing towards a peak, you need to work harder than ever and find yourself another peak. Maybe if I did little, a couple hundred thousand people would read it, and that's great already. But if I work harder than ever, I can bring this number up to millions. That's why I decided, with my new book, to go to every single state of Brazil. And I can already see a higher peak. There's no time to settle down.

4______

I constantly see people saying, "Yes, I had this great idea, but no investor had the vision to invest." "Oh, I created this great product, but the market is so bad, the sales didn't go well." Or, "I can't find good talent; my team is so below expectations." If you have dreams, it's your responsibility to make them happen. Yes, it may be hard to find talent. Yes, the market may be bad. But if no one invested in your idea, if no one bought your product, for sure, there is something there that is your fault. Definitely. You need to get your dreams and make them happen. And no one achieved their goals alone. But if you didn't make them happen, it's your fault and no one else's. Be responsible for your dreams.

Once I saw an ad, and it was a lot of friends, they were going up a mountain, it was a very high mountain, and it was a lot of work. You could see that they were sweating and this was tough. And they were going up, and they finally made it to the peak. Of course, they decided to celebrate, right? I'm going to celebrate, so, "Yes! We made it, we're at the top!" Two seconds later, one looks at the other and says, "Okay, let's go down." Life is never about the goals themselves. Life is about the journey. Yes, you should enjoy the goals themselves, but people think that you have dreams, and whenever you get to reaching one of those dreams, it's a magical place where happiness will be all around. But achieving a dream is a momentary sensation, and your life is not. The only way to really achieve all of your dreams is to fully enjoy every step of your journey. That's the best way.

【题目】The Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place. Now it is an ecological disaster area. Nauru's heartbreaking story could have one good consequence-other countries might learn from its mistakes.

For thousands of years, Polynesian people lived in the remote island of Nauru, far from western civilization. The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798. He was the British captain of the Hunter, a whaling ship. He called the island Pleasant Island.

However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first. The whaling ships and other traders began to visit, bringing guns and alcohol. These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island. A ten-year civil war started, which reduced the population from 1,400 to 900.

Nauru's real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate(磷酸盐)on the island. In fact, it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate, which was a very important fertilizer for farming. The company began mining the phosphate.

A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground; it is a strip mine. When a company strip-mines, it removes the top player of soil. Then it takes away the material it wants. Strip mining totally destroys the land. Gradually, the lovely island or Nauru started to look like the moon.

In 1968, Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world. Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.

Unfortunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars. In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses. Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem—their phosphate was running out. Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing. By 2000, Nauru was financially ruined. Experts say that it would take approximately$433, 600, 000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen.

1What was Nauru like before the Europeans came?

A. Rich and powerful]

B. Modern and open

C. Peaceful and attractive

D. Greedy and aggressive

2The ecological disaster in Nauru resulted from .

A. soil pollution

B. phosphate overmining

C. farming activity

D. whale hunting

3Which of the following was a cause of Nauru's financial problem?

A. Its leaders misused the money

B. It spent too much repairing the island

C. Its phosphate mining cost much money

D. It lost millions of dollars in the civil war.

4What can we learn about Nauru from the last paragraph?

A. The leaders will take the experts' words seriously

B. The phosphate mines were destroyed

C. The island was abandoned by the Nauruans

D. The ecological damage is difficult to repair.

【3】
