Later, the Greeks were well-known for their literature (文学) and science, but their \"books\" looked very different ________the books of today. They were called scrolls (卷轴). They were difficult to use and took a lot of space in a library. About 2,000 years ago, books with lots of pages________ (invent).
For more than a thousand years, the pages of books were made from animal skin. That changed in ________thirteenth century, when Europeans learned about a very ________(use) Chinese invention: paper.
But the biggest change for books in Europe came in 1439, when Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press. Before that, books in Europe were copied by hand, so they were very expensive. Many more people could afford the books ________were produced on a printing press.
These days it is difficult ________(imagine) a world without books. But human invention does not stop. Every year, more________ (story) are bought as e-books and read on a screen. Will anyone turn the pages of a traditional book in the future, ________will books, like scrolls, soon disappear?
【答案】 probably;saw;from;were invented;the;useful;that/which;to imagine;stories;or
【解析】【分析】本文介绍了书的历史。
(1)句意: 首先,书写的发明可能在大约5500年前。副词修饰动词came,probable是形容词,probably是副词,故填probably。
(2)句意: 他们可以与从未见过的人交流,并与保险公司的几代人分享他们的知识。根据 5, 500 years ago可知时态是一般过去时,see的过去式是saw , 故填saw。 (3)句意: 后来,希腊人因他们的文学和科学而闻名,但是他们的“书”看起来和今天的书大不相同。be different from,固定搭配,与……不同 , 故填from。
(4)句意: 大约2000年前,有很多页的书4被发明。根据2000年前是一般过去时,invent和pages是被动关系,主语是名词复数,故助动词是were , 故填 were invented。 (5)句意: 这种情况在13世纪发生了变化,当时欧洲人了解到一项非常有用的中国发明,纸。根据thirteenth是序数词,其前是定冠词the,故填the。
(6)句意:这种情况在13世纪发生了变化,当时欧洲人了解到一项非常有用的中国发明,纸。invention是名词,其前是形容词,use是动词,useful是形容词,故填 useful。

(8)句意: 如今,没有书的世界很难想象。it's+形容词+to so,固定搭配,做某事很…… , 故填 to imagine。
(9)句意: 每年,都有更多的故事以电子书的形式被购买并在屏幕上阅读。此处缺少主语,根据are可知是名词复数,story是名词 , 故填 stories。
(10)句意: 将来会有人翻过传统书籍的书页吗?像卷轴一样的书会很快消失吗?连接疑问句表示并列关系用or , 故填or。

2.语法填空
From deserts and beaches to playgrounds, sand is a common sight. But you might not know that sand is also a useful resource. Sand is the second most-used resource in the world after water, the BBC reported. However, the UN said that sand is not limitless and that we might be running out of ________.
Sand is made up of very small ________ (piece) of rock, soil and minerals(矿物质). It can take tens of thousands of years to form. But now we are using sand more________ (quick) than it is being formed. According to the BBC, we use about 15 billion tons of sand every year ________ build houses, roads and other things. People also put sand in the________ [si:] to make new islands. For example, the Palm islands are made up of three________ [lɑːdʒ] man-made islands in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. In 2010, they ________ (take) 94 million cubic meters of sand to build. If people keep________(use) this much sand, it will run out in many places. For example, Vietnam may run out of construction sand by 2020, Live Science noted.
________ [sins] people need so much sand, they are trying to mine(开采) more of it. But this is bad for the environment. Mining sand may ________ beaches to disappear and more floods to happen in places close to the sea. Also, this may affect the habitats (栖息地) of many plants and animals.
【答案】 it;pieces;quickly;to;sea;large;took;using;Since;cause 【解析】【分析】大意:本文主要介绍了沙子这种常见的景观。
(1)句意:然而,联合国说,沙子并不是无限的,我们有可能会用完它们。run out of“用完,用尽”的意思。这里用it来指代上文的沙子(sand是不可数名词)。故答案为:it。 (2)句意:沙子由非常小的岩石、土壤和矿物质组成。根据rock, soil and minerals(矿物质)可知,这是几种成分,因此piece用复数pieces。故答案为:pieces。
(3)句意:但现在我们使用沙子的速度比它形成的速度要快。根据副词修饰动词可知,此处应用形容词quick的副词形式quickly修饰动词use“使用”。故答案为:quickly。 (4)句意:据英国广播公司报道,我们每年用大约150亿吨沙子建造房屋、道路和其他东西。根据固定搭配 use sth. to do sth. 用某物做某物,可知此处用动词不定式to do做目的状语。故答案为:to。
(5)句意:人们还把沙子放进海里,制造新的岛屿。由语境和音标[si:]提示可知,填:sea。故答案为:sea。
(6)句意:例如,棕榈岛由阿拉伯联合酋长国迪拜的三个大型人工岛屿组成的。由语境和音标[lɑːdʒ]提示可知,填:large,three large man-made islands三个大型的人工岛屿。故答案为:large。
(7)句意:2010年,他们用9400万立方米的沙子建造。根据时间状语In 2010可知,本题的时态为一般过去时。动词take的过去式为took。故答案为:took。
(8)句意:如果人们继续使用这么多沙子,它会在很多地方用完。根据固定搭配keep doing sth. 继续做某事,可知此处应用动名词做宾语,动词use的动名词为using。故答案为:using。
(9)句意:由于人们需要这么多沙子,他们正试图开采更多的沙子。由语境和音标 [sins] 提示可知,填:since,表自……以来、因为、由于。句首单词首字母要大写。故答案为:Since。
(10)句意:开采沙可能会导致海滩消失,在靠近大海的地方会发生更多的洪水。根据beaches to disappear and more floods to happen in places close to the sea海滩消失,在靠近大海的地方会发生更多的洪水,可知这些是开采沙所导致的后果,因此填:cause。may是情态动词,后跟动词原形。故答案为:cause。

【答案】 inventor;a;how;months;them;to read;interested;playing;safely;by 【解析】【分析】这篇短文简要介绍了著名发明家爱迪生的生平,他因为发明了电灯,从而改变了人们的生活。并且短文详细描述了爱迪生的人格特点。
(1)句意:托马斯·爱迪生是一位伟大的美国发明家。根据 a great American是形容词,故前后是名词单数,invent是动词,名词是inventor。故填inventor。
(2)句意:当他还是个孩子的时候,他总是问问题。child是以辅音音素开头的单数名词,故用不定冠词a表示泛指。故填a。
(3)句意:无论多么困难,他都不会放弃。hard是副词,根据语序it was可知,no matter how表示\"无论如何\"的意思,引导让步状语从句。故填how。
(4)句意:小汤姆只上了三个月的学。基数词three后用复试形式months。故填months。
(5)句意:他问的问题大部分都与他的功课无关。of是介词,其后应该要用宾格形式,they的宾格是them。故填them。
(6)句意:汤姆的母亲教他读写。taught是teach的过去式,教某人做某事teach sb. to do sth.,故填to read。

(8)句意:一天,他看到一个小男孩在火车站的铁轨上玩耍。saw是see的过去式,看到某人在做某事应为see sb. doing sth.,故填playing。
(9)句意:一列火车很快就要开过来了,男孩吓得不敢动。爱迪生冲过去把他带到了安全的地方。took是take的过去式,take是动词应该用副词来修饰,safe是形容词,副词是safety。故填safely。
(10)句意:这个男孩的父亲非常感激爱迪生,教他用电报发送消息。by通过某种方法、手段。表示传达、传递的方式或媒介。故填by。
【点评】考查语言综合运用能力,注意名词复数,词性,介词,和see sb. doing sth的固定搭配等多种用法。

【解析】【分析】文章大意:本文是一篇与睡眠有关的短文,讲述了睡眠与健康的关系,不同年龄的人需要不同的睡眠时间,中国青少年学生的睡眠现状以及解决措施等。 (1)句意:每年,世界各地都有一个节日来庆祝良好健康睡眠的重要性——世界睡眠日。由前面的定冠词the,可知此处应填入一个名词,important是形容词“重要的”,与其对应的名词是importance“重要”,故答案填importance。
(2)句意:据说每晚8小时的睡眠时间被认为是平均睡眠时间。由题干可知主语eight hours与动词consider之间存在被动关系,所以应用被动语态,文章时态为一般现在时,时间作主语谓语动词用单数,所以be动词用is,consider的过去分词是considered,故答案填is considered。
(3)句意:然而,去年中国青少年研究中心报道。由last year可知,动词时态用一般过去时,report的过去式为reported,故答案填reported。
(4)句意:大约五分之四的中学生睡眠不足。这里考查分数的表达方法,在英语中一般用基数词表示分数的分子,用序数词表示分数的分母;当分子大于1时,分母要用复数形式,所以五分之四的正确书写是four fifths,故答案填fifths。
(5)句意:对于一些学生来说,他们想早点睡觉,但是他们总是担心他们的学业。keep doing sth.或者keep+形容词,都表示“使…处于某种状态”,worried,是形容词,故答案填worrying/worried。
(6)句意:他们不能很快入睡。联系上文语境,结合提示词可知此处句意为“他们不能很快入睡。”“入睡”fall asleep,固定词组,前面有情态动词can't,所以这里用动词原形,故答案填asleep。
(7)句意:为了解决这类问题。这里应用动词不定式表示目的,故答案填To solve。 (8)句意:科学家建议学生应该少做功课,多睡觉。根据后面的more time to sleep可知此处应表达的是“作更少的功课”,句中暗含比较级,little的比较级为less,故答案填less。 (9)句意:比如白天小睡20分钟。such as意思是“比如”,as是介词后接动词ing形式,故答案填taking。
(10)句意:良好的睡眠习惯也很有帮助。前面有系动词are,后接形容词作表语,
help“帮助”,动词,与其对应的形容词是helpful“有帮助的、有益的”,故答案填helpful。 【点评】考查语言综合运用能力,注意谓语的时态,语态,非谓语动词,词性,连词搭配等多种用法。

(2)句意: 他们互相支持和爱,就像中国家庭一样。just as引导方式状语从句,像……一样,故填as。
(3)句意:然而又有文化的不同。the定冠词后是名词,根据谓语是动词原形come,可知主语是名词复数,different是形容词,difference是名词,故填differences。

【答案】 because;value;was invented;electrically;useless;a/any;wires;for;equipment;that
【解析】【分析】主要讲了一些发明因为人们不能想象它们的价值而失去,列举传真机器的发明来说明这点。
(1)句意:足够奇怪的是,因为人们不能想象它们的价值,所以一些发明消失了。后句表示原因,所以用because;形容词修物主代词修饰名词,their它们的,形容词修物主代词,所以后面用形容词valuable的名词value,不可数名词,故填because,value。 (2)句意:传真的科技在19世纪被发明。invent发明,实义动词,主语technology是动作invent的承受者,时态是一般过去时,所以用一般过去时的被动语态,结构是was/were+动词过去分词,主语technology是不可数名词,所以用was,invent的过去分词是invented,故填was invented。
(3)句意:1843年,亚历山大贝恩发明了一种电子传输文字的机器。electrical电子的,形容词,副词修饰实义动词,transmit传输,实义动词,所以用副词electrically,电子地,故填electrically。
(4)句意:起初,它被认为是无用的,因为很少有人认为有必要通过电线传输文字。be considere形容词,表示被认为怎么样,固定搭配,根据后文可知传真的作用后来才被认可,所以起初被认为是无用的,use使用,实义动词,其形容词是useless,无用的;原因是很少人认为有必要,few表示否定,所以用a/any;wire,电线,可数名词,前面没有表示单数的a或者one,所以用复数wires,故填useless;a/any;wires。
(5)句意:最终,这项发明的价值得以实现,并被改进为办公用途。为了办公用途才被改进,所以用for,为了,故填for。
(6)句意:到了20世纪80年代,传真机已成为办公室的标准设备。equip,装备,实义动词,形容词修饰名词,standard,标准的,形容词,所以用equip的名词equipment,设
备,不可数名词,故填equipment。
(7)句意:原因是它能很快地传送书面文件。the reason is that...,原因是……,固定搭配,故填that。

【解析】【分析】 本文介绍了青少年和父母交流的问题,对大多数青少年来说,与父母交谈可能很困难,甚至令人担忧。所以他们必须选择正确的时间。
(1)句意: 她常常每周回到在慈溪的家为了从父母那里取钱。此处是不定式做目的状语,为了,故填 to get。
(2)句意: 陈希望她的父母可以把钱打到银行卡上,这样她不用经常回家了。根据 put the money on a bank card和 she didn't have to travel so often可知,把钱打到银行卡上
的结果是这样她不用经常回家了,故此处是连词表示结果,so是连词 ,故填so。 (3)句意: 她决定晚饭后看电视时和她的父母讨论这件事。discuss后缺少宾语,it指代把钱打到银行卡上这件事,故用it指代一件事,故填it。
(4)句意: 她选择了正确时间。此处缺少谓语动词,根据下文choose mealtime to talk to their parents 选择用餐时间和父母交谈 ,可知是选择时机,choose是动词,描述过去用一般过去时,choose的过去式是chose,故填 chose。
(5)句意: 在几次游说下,她的父母终于同意了陈的意见。副词修饰动词agreed,finally,终于,是副词 , 故填 finally。
(6)句意: 美国杂志最近重点调查了该国15216名6-12岁的儿童。基数词1521后是名词复数,故填 kids。

(8)句意: 睡觉时间是其次。根据 followed by time 接着是时间,可知此处表示顺序,故用序数词,two是基数词,second是序数词,第二 , 故填 second。
(9)句意: 中国青少年似乎也有类似的处理问题的倾向。 teenagers是名词其前是形容词,China是名词,中国,Chinese是形容词,中国的 , 故填 Chinese。
