,中心词是名词position,这里是可数名词单数作主语,谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式,此处是介绍杜甫在中国文学史上的地位,因此用一般现在时。故填rests。10.in/at/on 考查介词。anexpertin/at/on...表示“是某方面的专家”,为固定搭配。故填in/at/on。BAcrater(环形山)onMercurysatquietlyformillionsofyears.Surprisingly,itacquiredaname—LiQingzhao,aChinesefemalepoet.TheInternationalAstronomicalUnionnamedthefirstgroupofcratersontheplanetafter310famouswritersandartistsinhumanhistory,Li1.________(include).Whatdidshedotodeservesuch2.________honour?ComparedwithothermalepoetsinChina,3.________havelefthundredsoreventhousandsofpoems,shehasonlyeightyseven.4.________,herartisticcreativityinher5.________(survive)workshasearnedherapermanentplaceintheChineseliterarycircle.Shegrewupina6.________(relative)relaxedatmospherebuthermaiden(少女)daysweresolimitedthattheregretcouldbefeltinherpoem:“Can'tyousee?Thegreenleavesthriving(旺盛)buttheredflowersfadingovernight.”ThearrivalanddisappearanceofspringisoneofthemostfrequentthemesinChinesepoetry.Lihadtwomarriages.Thefirstendedupherbeingabandonedduringthewar.7.________(bad)still,shesufferedphysicalabusefromhersecondhusband.Bravelyshechargedhimatthecourtandgotthe8.________(permit)todivorce.Inthefinalstageofherlife,even9.________noonetorelyon,shenevergaveuphopeandcreatedmanyliteraryworksthat10.________(leave)forgenerationstoappreciatetodate.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章由水星上的一座环形山被命名为“李清照”切入,给读者介绍了我国著名女诗人李清照的生平。1.included 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,此处应用非谓语动词作后置定语,Li和include之间是逻辑上的被动关系,故用过去分词作后置定语,故填included。2.an 考查冠词。honour是可数名词,结合上下文可知,此处意为“值得这样的一份荣耀”,是泛指,应用不定冠词,又因honour以元音音素开头,故填an。3.who 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,句中包含非限制性定语从句,先行词malepoets在从句中充当主语,应用关系代词who,故填who。4.However 考查副词。结合上下文可知,此处应用表转折意义的副词,故填However。5.surviving 考查非谓语动词。根据句意可知,此处应用现在分词作定语,修饰名词works,故填surviving。6.relatively 考查副词。此处应用relative的副词形式修饰形容词relaxed,故填relatively。7.Worse 考查固定表达。结合句意可知,此处考查固定表达worsestill“更糟糕的是”,故填Worse。8.permission

8.A comeintosight为固定结构,意为“出现在眼前,可以望见”。故选A。9.C 根据后文“Ipushedandpulledthelever—nothinghappened.”可知,作者推拉控制杆应该是因为车停了下来。故选C。10.B 根据前文“Iceandsnowwerebeatingthewindowandthewindalmostswepteverythingawayoutside.”以及“Ihadjustmadeitwhenthe9stopped.”可知,雪下得很大,风也很强烈,作者的车行进不了,应是卡住了。bestuckwith“无法摆脱;陷在”。故选B。11.C 根据“EventhoughIhadmetnooneonthislonelyroad,Ihopedsomeonemightcometo11.”可知,作者希望在这条偏僻的路上能有人出现帮忙。故选C。12.D 根据后文“anoldpickuptruck”可知,作者应是看到了一辆小货车。故选D。13.D 结合句子“Thenheshowedmehowtooperatethefourwheeldriveshiftinggear(换挡齿轮),lockingitinto13”可知,这个年轻人教给作者如何操作四轮驱动换挡装置,且需要将其锁住在恰当的位置。故选D。14.B 根据前文可知,这个年轻人教给作者如何操作四轮驱动换挡装置以及如何锁住到恰当的位置,因此作者的车又可以发动起来了,B项“innotime”可表达作者当时急切且激动的心情。故选B。15.D 结合上文中的“WhenIthankedthestrangerandaskedifhelivedaroundthearea,hejustsaid,‘Oh,overthere.’DoIbelieveinangels?”可知,作者认为帮助他的这个陌生人像天使一样,因此本句应是非常肯定的回答。“Youbet!”意为“当然;的确”,符合语境和作者的心境。故选D。Ⅳ.语法填空Ifyouhaveacold,thenit'stimetolearnsomecoldpreventiontechniques.Youjustneedtolearnandusesomenewbehaviours1.________lifestylehabitseveryday.Yourbest2.________(protect)fromthecommoncoldandfluisfrequenthandwashing.Thesimpleact3.________occurswhenyourubyourskinswhileusingwarmwaterandsoapcangetridofmost4.________(potential)harmfulgerms.Whilegermsareoftenspreadtoothersthroughhousehold5.________(object)—telephones,doorhandles,toothbrushes,andtaphandles—the6.________(big)transportationcentreforgermsisyourhands.That'swhyfrequenthandwashinggetsridoftheillnesscausinggermsand7.________(help)topreventthespreadofsomediseases.Asmanyas56,000peoplediefromthefluorflulikeillnesseachyear.8.________simpleactofhandwashingisthesinglemostimportantmeansofpreventingthespreadofinfections.YetsomestudiesshowthatmanyAmericans9.________(use)publicrestroomsdon'twashtheirhandsbeforeleaving.Peoplealsoforget10.________(wash)theirhandsbeforepreparingmealsandtheyhavesnackswithoutthinkingofwashingtheirhandsbeforehand.Ifyouwanttohelppreventcolds,juststop—andwashyourhands.【语篇解读】
