【答案】

【2】ninetieth
【3】chose
【4】winners
【5】polite
【解析】
【1】句意:随着二胎政策的开放,中国的人口规模将越来越大。
英语中“人口”是population,是一个不可数名词,所以这里直接用原形即可,故答案为population。
【2】句意:我要去养老院庆祝格林先生的第九十岁生日。
英语中“第九十”是要用序数词表达,英语中整十位数的序数词变化规则是:变y为i再加eth,所以ninety变成序数词应该是ninetieth,故答案为ninetieth。
【3】句意:我最后选择了一件红色的毛衣,因为它和我的裤子很相配。
英语中“选择”是choose,再由后句中的动词matched可知,这里用的是过去时,所以这里空格处的动词应该也用过去时,故答案为chose。
【4】句意:在著名的比赛中,赢家总是获得很好的奖品。
英语中“获胜者”是winner,根据句中的是动词get判断出,句子用的是现在时,动词用原形,那主语应该是复数名词,故答案为winners。
【5】句意:在公共汽车上给老人让座是有礼貌的。
英语中“礼貌的”是polite,空格是放在be动词后面,所以应该用形容词作表语,故答案为polite。
【题目】完成表格。阅读下面短文,完成题后的表格。
The hardest thing in the world is saying 'yes' to the world. Do you say yes to the world?Most of us have a habit of saying no to the things we don't like and yes to the things we like. However,everything we face is our life. We won't say yes to the things we do not like,because we are afraid that we will not avoid them forever.
But in fact,only through accepting the existence(存在)of what is not working for us,we can begin to change. When we say yes to the world,we begin to believe whatever our situation is,we can work with it. We express belief in ourselves,and the world. We also express a willingness to learn from whatever happens to us,rather than running and hiding when we don't like what we see. Therefore,in one word,saying yes is really good for our life.
What will it take to get to the point of saying yes? For some of us, it means dealing with something we can't run away from or refuse, and so we have no choice but to say yes. For others. they might make a decision to say yes to life no matter what happens to them. Saying yes to life might be difficult at first, and even painful at times. However, if we continue to say yes to life, it will be far less difficult in the end. And we will find the joy of being in an active talk to the world with a very powerful word ' yes'. We should say yes to everything that life puts in front of us.

【题目】 Texting(发信息) while driving is against the law in 47 states. But what about texting while walking? A 2018 study reported that more than 2, 500 people in the US ended up in hospitals resulting from using a mobile device(设备) while walking.
Hawaii passed a law making it illegal(违法的) to text or look down at a mobile device while crossing the street, it is the first state with a law like this. Do people think more places should accept such a law? The LA Times did a survey. Here are some replies they received.
Rena Jose, 26, New York Which is more important, texting or safety? If you are looking at your phone while walking, you might not see a car come or traffic lights turn red. It can be very dangerous. For example, in Japan, one person fell into a lake and another got her leg stuck in a hole, because both had their mind on their phone. We should make texting while crossing the street illegal in more cities. |
Andy Selvam, 55, California People do many things that cause injury to themselves but are not illegal, such as climbing mountains, driving cars, swimming and so on. People might get hurt from texting and walking if they're not paying attention. But I still think they should have a choice. |
Bob Madigan, 45, Oregon As humans, we can make our own decisions. I'm not saying it's safe, but we don't need the government to babysit us. If we want to learn to make smart decisions, the government needs to stop telling us what to do. After all, this is a free country. |
Andrew Black, 34, Alaska This law is a good idea—compare this protection with seat belts. If this law is passed all over the USA, people will be worried. But is there really a way to please everyone? This would not be for fun. It would be safe and good for all Americans. |
