【1】The

【2】who

【3】presented

【4】warmly

【5】with

【6】another

【7】saying

【8】longer

【解析】文章介绍一个年轻人在沙漠给老师带回一些水，老师喝了以后说很甜，但是老师的另外一个学生喝了以后却说水很难喝，老师解释他喝的不是水，而是学生的心意。

【1】 The

考查定冠词。这里的the 特指前一句提及的小溪里的水，故使用the water。句意：一个年轻人在穿越沙漠的时候，遇到一潭清水，水很甜。

【2】who

考查定语从句。 Who 引导的定语从句，先行词是an elder，后面句子中缺少主语，故使用who 在句中作主语。句意：他把容量装满水以便能带给一位老人，这个老人是他的老师。

【3】presented

考查谓语动词。本文叙述的是过去发生的事情，基本时态是一般过去时。故使用presented。

【4】warmly

考查副词。用副词warmly 修饰动词smile.

【5】with

考查介词。介词with表示伴随的状态。with a happy heart “带着愉快的心情”。句意：年轻人愉快地回家了。

【6】another

考查形容词。本句是指老师让另一个学生品尝这个水。Another 另外一个。

【7】saying

考查非谓语作伴随状语。本句中的动词say与句子主语he构成主动关系，所以使用现在分词的形式作状语。

【8】longer

考查固定搭配。No longer，不再。句意：显然这水不再新鲜了。

【9】kindness

考查名词。介词of 后面跟宾语，所以要用kind的名词即kindness,善良。

【10】sweeter

考查比较级。这个水里含有很浓厚的爱意，所以没有什么比它更甜。所以要使用比较级的形式，形容词比较级的否定式表最高级。即这水是最甜的。故用sweeter。

练习册系列答案

And，it's not because they live in different countries，states or even villages. In fact，Manuel Segovia and Isidro Velazquez，both in their 70s，live within 500 yards of each other，in the village of Ayapa in the Southern Mexican State of Tabasco. They，however，refuse to communicate because they simply don't have much in common. Segovia is apparently a little frank in nature while Velazquez is described as shy.

Segovia was at least able to talk in Zoque-Ayapanece with his brother until he passed away about 12 years ago，and still manages to practice it with his family，especially his son Manuel，who for the last five years has been trying to learn it and hopes to become fluent enough to teach it to the next generation. Velazquez on the other hand，has not been heard speaking in the language with anybody.

The two men say the language used to be widely spoken in the village，but the younger generation refused to learn it for fear of being laughed at，and it therefore began to die a slow death，as the elders passed away.

Unless the two men get their acts together，the only way to hear the language will be to either listen to Manuel's not-so-fluent statement or see them talk in a documentary entitled “Lengua Muerta” (Dead Language) that is being filmed to capture Zoque Ayapaneco and 364 other native Mexican languages that are in a similar state.

We sure hope Segovia and Velazquez soon find something common to talk about. Maybe the fact is that the language is dying and that they should start encouraging and teaching the next generation together.

【1】What do we know about Zoque-Ayapaneco?

A．It was widely used twelve years ago.

B．It is a Southern American language.

C．It will be popular in Mexico in the near future.

D．It will be dying out if no effective measures are taken.

【2】The reason why Segovia and Velazquez don't talk to each other is that ________.

A．they both are too shy

B．they have no similarity in their character

C．they are too familiar to talk

D．they live in different villages

【3】From the passage，we can conclude that ________.

A．altogether 365 languages are becoming extinct in the world

B．Segovia and Velazquez will communicate with each other soon

C．the government cares a lot about the protection of Zoque-Ayapaneco

D．we can hear the language from Manuel or documentary “Lengua Muerta”

【4】What's the main idea of the passage?

A．World's endangered languages are being filmed.

B．Villagers are trying to protect their old language.

C．An endangered language is spoken by only two people.

D．There are a lot of languages in Mexico.

【题目】A first-grade student whose best friend is suffering from cancer decided that hours of playing and telling jokes was not enough—he wanted to show his buddy just how he understood the tough time he was going through.

Five-year-old Vincent Butterfield decided the only way was to shave his head in support of his best friend Zac Gossage who lost his hair through chemotherapy(化疗).

Zac was diagnosed(诊断) last June with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (急性淋巴细胞白血病). He is being treated but still goes to Union Central Elementary in Missouri every day—because that's where he gets to play with Vincent.

When the little boy was asked why he shaved his hair off, he told KSDK: "To make Zac feel like he's not the only one without any hair."

Vincent has also been learning about cancer and raising money for his best friend after learning how expensive his chemotherapy treatments are.

He made more than 20 scarves and sold them, raising more than $200 to give to Zac.

The little boy's mom Karen Butterfield told KSDK," We had been making these scarves and he just kind of said it would be cool if we could make a whole bunch of these and sell them."

When asked what friendship was, Vincent looked at his friend Zac and responded: "It's a beautiful thing."

Questioning can lead to search for an answer. If we are in the habit of raising doubts as to if what we are told is true, we can find the correct answer and learn more.

Two years before, our teacher, Mr. Li offered us an answer to a difficult math problem in class. Because the answer seemed a little strange, nobody but I doubted it. Thought that his solution might be wrong, I carefully analyzed the problem and try to work it out in a different way. Half an hour later, I managed to find the correct answer. When I showed my answer to her, the teacher praised me for my dependent thinking.

From this experience I have been learnt that questioning can serve as a bridge helps us to seek the truth.

【题目】California is the third 【1】(large) state in the USA and it is the most multicultural state. About 15,000 years ago, the first 【2】(settle) crossed the Bering Strait and arrived in California. The Native Americans suffered 【3】(great) after the arrival of the Europeans in the 16th century. In the 18th century, California 【4】(rule) by Spain until 1821 when the people of Mexico gained their independence 【5】Spain. California then became part of Mexico. But after the American-Mexican war in 1846, California was given to the USA.

In 1848, gold was discovered in California,【6】attracted people from all over the world to arrive there 【7】(achieve) their dreams of becoming rich. In 1850, California became 【8】 31st state of the USA as a multicultural society.【9】 (attract) by the climate and lifestyle, more and more people from different parts of the world have been immigrating to California,【10】(include) Asians, Africans and Europeans.

【题目】The twentieth century saw greater changes than any century before: changes for the better, changes for the worse; changes that brought a lot of benefits to human beings, changes that p【1】man in danger. Many things caused the changes, b【2】, in my opinion, the most important was the progress in science.

Scientific research in physics and biology has vastly broadened our views. It has given us a deeper k【3】 of the structure of matter and of the universe; it has brought us a better understanding of the nature of life a【4】 of its continuous development. Technology in the application of science has made big advances that have benefited us in n【5】 every part of life.

The continuation (持续) of such activities in the twenty-first century will result i【6】 even greater advantages to human beings: in pure science — a wider and deeper knowledge in all fields of learning; in applied science — a m【7】 reasonable sharing of material benefits, and better protection of the environment.

Sadly, however, there is another side to the picture. The creativity of science has b【8】 (employ) in doing damage to mankind. The application of science and technology to the development and production of weapons of mass destruction has created a real danger to the continued existence of the human race on this planet.

William Shakespeare said, “The web of our life is of a mingled yarn (纱线), good and ill together.” The above brief review of the application of only one part of human activities — science seems t【9】 ( prove ) what Shakespeare said. But does it have to be so? Must the ill always go together with the g【10】? Are we biologically programmed for war?

He studied piano with the great masters of Europe and achieved huge success as a 【2】(music) and composer in his early years. But after he immigrated to the United States, he failed as a pianist. For a while he tried other 【3】(type) of work including gold mining and boxing. 【4】 he never gave up his dream and continued to play the piano and write music.

During those difficult years, he could not always afford 【5】(make) payments on his piano. One day, bent over the keyboard, he could hear nothing but the music that he played with such rare 【6】(inspire). When he finished and looked up, he was astonished to find that he had 【7】 audience of three moving men who 【8】(seat) on the floor.

They said nothing and made no movement toward the piano. Instead, they dug into their pockets, pooled together enough money for the payment, placed 【9】 on the piano and walked out, empty handed. 【10】(move) by the beauty of his music, these men recognized excellence and responded to it.
