【题目】阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

We’ve all heard stories of school dropouts who have made their fortune, but are they the norm(典型)or an exception to the rule? Do they tend to be university 1(graduate) or self-made businessmen?

Thanks to a recent 2(analyse) of people in Forbes’ top 100 billionaires list, we can now find out 3 the world’s richest people have in common.

If you are deciding whether or not to go to university, it may help you 4(know) that 76% of the richest people in the world have a degree. Don’t lose hope if you aren’t very academic though. It’s worth 5(note) that many of those on the list did not pass all 6(they)exams with flying colours. Microsoft founder Bill Gates 7(drop) out of Harvard University after two years of study. And Chinese businessman Jack Ma failed his university entrance exams three times 8 going on to complete his degree.

Another 9(interest) trend is that the world’s high-fliers are much more likely to be married— only 12% of billionaires are unmarried. Finally, the percentage of billionaires 10 are bald(秃头的) is quite high—so don’t worry if you are losing your hair.

1graduates

2analysis

3what

4(to) know

5noting

6their

7dropped

10who/that

【解析】

本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了世界上最富有的人的共同点:76%的最富有的人都有学位,88%的亿万富翁已婚。

1考查名词的数。graduate在句子中是名词,意为“毕业生”,they指代的是它的复数形式,从businessmen也可以看出,graduate应使用复数形式。故填graduates

2考查名词。句意:由不定冠词a可知,recent后面应该使用名词形式,analyse(分析)是动词,它的名词是analysis。故填analysis

3考查宾语从句。分析句子结构可知,find out后面是一个宾语从句,have缺少宾语,空格处指物,应使用what引导宾语从句。故填what

4考查非谓语动词。help sb.todo sth:帮助某人做某事。 故填(toknow

5考查非谓语动词。be worth doing:值得做某事,动名词表示主动形式表示被动含义,根据句意,故填noting

6考查形容词性物主代词。此处应使用形容词性物主代词作定语修饰exams。故填their

7考查时态。根据句意可知,比尔盖茨离开哈弗大学是过去发生的事情,句子应该使用一般过去时。故填dropped

8考查介词。句意:中国商人马云(Jack Ma)在获得学位之前,曾在高考中三次失利。由going可知,其前面应使用介词,结合上下文语境,应使用before。故填before

9考查形容词。形容词作定语修饰名词trendinterest的形容词是interesting。故填interesting

10考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导定语从句,先行词是billionaires,指人,它在从句中作主语,因此应使用who/that引导定语从句。故填who/that

【题目】 Adventure-seeker Emma broke her ankle when she fell awkwardly while climbing a rock and spent a week in hospital waiting for an operation on her foot. When she was sent home to recover under strict instructions not to bear any weight, she became so fearful of crutches (拐杖) that she didn't move for three weeks. “I tried crutches but I kept falling over and injuring myself. So I literally just stayed on the sofa all day, ” says Emma.

She was gutted at the thought of missing the Wolf Run — a quarterly event that she hasn't missed since 2014. “If you complete four Wolf Runs in a year, one in each season, you get Alpha Wolf status,” explains Emma. “This year was going to be my fifth in a row as an Alpha Wolf and I was really upset that I'd lose my status.” So she was willing to try anything to get through the course — even with her injured ankle.

“I was telling my friend that I was going to cancel, and he persuaded me to give it a go. Having something to aim for really kept me going." Emma completed the run wearing an iWALK2.0, which is a medically-approved device and it basically functions like a hi-tech artificial leg, allowing users to walk freely. I decided to get one and it completely changed my recovery. I could move around the house and start getting out and about again, which had a real impact on my mental well-being.”

On the day of the race, Emma was nervous but the sound of people cheering her on kept her motivated. Emma made it over the finish line in just under six hours and clocked up her 23rd Wolf Run in five years. “It was an incredible day and my determination to finish combined with the support I received along the way kept me going,” says Emma.

1Why was Emma frightened to use a crutch?

A.She was afraid of recovering slowly.

C.She just had an operation on her foot.

D.She often got injured when using one.

2What does the underlined word “gutted” mean in Paragraph 2?

A.Extremely sad.B.A bit relieved.

C.Very surprised.D.Pretty cheerful.

3What actually made Emma take part in the race?

A.Her new hi-tech artificial leg.

B.Her fear of letting her friend down.

C.Her strong desire to achieve her ambition.

D.Her complete recovery from the operation.

4Which of the following best describes Emma?
