【答案】11.facing

12.started

13.hascollected

【解析】

【導語】本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了Ana為何創(chuàng)辦"just1Book”這一組織。

【11題詳解】

考查非謂語動詞。句意：安娜在閱讀了附近社區(qū)的孩子們面臨的困難后受到了啟發(fā)?？崭裉帒撚梅侵^語

動詞作定語，修飾空格前的名詞kids,動詞face與名詞kids之間是主動關系，所以應該用現(xiàn)在分詞facing

作定語。故填facing。

【12題詳解】

考查動詞時態(tài)。句意：安娜在10歲時創(chuàng)辦了一個名為“justIBook”的組織?？崭裉幨菚r間狀語從句的謂

語動詞，根據(jù)主句Anawasjusttenyearsold可知，從句描述過去發(fā)生的事，應該用一般過去時。故填

startedo

【13題詳解】

考查時態(tài)和主謂一致。句意：到目前為止，她已經(jīng)收集了大約50萬本書?？崭裉幨蔷渥拥闹^語動詞，根

tosuggestaddiction.Butcombiningthatwiththelatesttimeyouuseyourphonecanbeagoodindicator.

【答案】14.without

15.todetermine

16connection

17.spent

【解析】

【導語】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了智能手機成癮與睡眠之間的關系。

【14題詳解】

考查介詞。句意：智能手機非常有用，我們常常無法想象沒有它們的生活。此處表示“沒有智能手機的生

活”，用介詞without符合語境。故填without。

15題詳解】

考查非謂語動詞。句意：我們調(diào)查了1065名學生，以確定智能手機成癮是否會影響睡眠。句中用不定式

作目的狀語，表示"為了確定"。故填todetermine。

【16題詳解】

考查名詞。句意：我們發(fā)現(xiàn)了智能手機成癮和睡眠質(zhì)量差之間的密切聯(lián)系。形容詞strong后接名詞形式

connection,作identified賓語。根據(jù)不定冠詞a可知，用名詞的單數(shù)形式。故填connection。

【17題詳解】

考查非謂語動詞。句意：花在手機上的時間不足以說明上癮。句中已有謂語動詞，所以用非謂語動詞。名

詞time與spend之間為邏輯上的被動關系，所以用過去分詞作后置定語。故填spent。

C

閱讀下列短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容填空。在未給提示詞的空白處僅填寫1個恰當?shù)膯卧~，在給出提示詞的空白

atinymouse20braverychangedmylifeforever.

【答案】18.extremely

19.waschallenged

20.whose

【解析】

【導語】這是一篇記敘文。作者講述在野生動物救援組織工作的經(jīng)歷，工作艱苦且面臨挑戰(zhàn)，其間各種動

物讓作者學到很多，一只小老鼠的勇敢更改變其人生。

【18題詳解】

考查副詞。句意：這是極其艱苦的工作。分析句子可知，此處需用副詞修飾形容詞hard,extreme的副詞

形式為extremelyo故填extremely?

【19題詳解】

考查時態(tài)和語態(tài)。句意：我被挑戰(zhàn)著超越自己的極限。這里考查謂語動詞，句子主語I和challenge之間是

被動關系，且講述的是過去的事情，應用一般過去時的被動語態(tài)was/weredone,主語為I,be動詞用

waSo故填waschallengedo

[20題詳解】

考查定語從句。句意：它們都以自己的方式向我展示了我們可以從動物身上學到什么，比如一只小老鼠，

它的勇敢永遠改變了我的生活。分析句子可知，"braverychangedmylifeforever??是定語從句，先行

詞為mouse,關系詞在從句中作定語，修飾bravery,表所屬關系，應用whose。故填whose。

【答案】24.B25.C26.B27.B

【解析】

【導語】這是一篇夾敘夾議文。作者和患自閉癥的兒子去海邊撿貝殼，兒子偏愛碎貝殼，作者從中領悟到

不完美之物也有獨特美，應學會欣賞。

【24題詳解】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“Iwonderedwhyhewasdoingthat.WhenIsuggestedfindingwholeshells,hesimply

gavemeapuzzledlookandcontinuedpickingupwhateverhefound,contentwithhisuniquecollection.（我想知道

他為什么要那樣做。當我建議去找完整的貝殼時，他只是困惑地看了我一眼，然后繼續(xù)撿起他找到的任何

東西，對他獨特的收藏很滿意。）”可知，一開始作者看到兒子收集破碎的貝殼時感到很困惑。故選B

項。

[25題詳解】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“WhenIsuggestedfindingwholeshells,hesimplygavemeapuzzledlookand

continuedpickingupwhateverhefound,contentwithhisuniquecollection」當我建議他找整個貝殼時，他只是

困惑地看了我一眼，然后繼續(xù)撿起他找到的任何東西，滿足于他獨特的收藏。）”以及第五段“Mom,these

shellsarebroken,buttheyarestillbeautiful.（媽媽，這些貝殼是破碎的，但它們?nèi)匀缓苊馈＃笨芍?，Wilson

收集破碎的貝殼是因為它們的獨特性。故選C項。

[26題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一■段aTearsfilledmyeyesasIrealizedmysonwasteachingmeanimportantlesson.I

tookouttheperfectshellsIhadcollectedandplacedthembackonthebeach.WilsonandIwalkedalong,gathering

onlybrokenshells,andadmiringtheirbeauty.（當我意識到兒子給我上了重要的一課，淚水充滿了我的眼睛。

我拿出我收集的完美貝殼，把它們放回海灘。我和Wilson繼續(xù)走著，只收集破碎的貝殼，并欣賞它們的

美。）”可知，最后作者改變了對破碎貝殼的看法。故選B項。

[27題詳解】

推理判斷題。通讀全文可知，文章講述了兒子收集破碎貝殼并發(fā)現(xiàn)其獨特美的故事，告訴我們要有一顆感

受美的心，才能發(fā)現(xiàn)事物獨特的美。所以B選項Beautyisforafeelingheart.（美麗是為一顆有感情的心準備

的。)符合語境。故選B項。

什么還要花時間和金錢去接受大學教育？根據(jù)第三段“Theproblemwiththisquestion,however,isthatit

價值。）”以及后文圍繞大學教育展開的論述可知，作者在第二段提出這個問題是為了開啟關于大學教育的
