lace your Nest thermostat in a cool house 第二節(jié)(共 5小題;每小題 2分,滿分 10分) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。 There are thousands of words in the English language. And every year, there are more as English continues to grow. But how many of these words do you really need to learn? 36 The research shows that these top 100 words make up about 50% of all the words we use in English. But that isn39。ve covered 90% of all the words you will use in your lifetime. Unbelievably, they also found that the top 10 words in English (the, be, to, of, and, a, in, that, have, I) make up 25% of all the words we use. 37 Sounds good? 38 For a start, most of the words that appear in the list are headwords. A headword is like a root word, with lots of other related words that e after it. For example, from the headword “run” there are “runs, running, ski run, run out of something.” 39 So, while the most mon meaning of “run” is “to move quickly”, if you say that a road “runs” in a particular direction, you39。t that simple. B. The list includes millions of words in it. C. On top of that, words often have different meanings. D. However, studying highfrequency words can still be useful. E. The other 10% are words related to extremely specific subjects. F. A study by Oxford Online has identified the top 100 words in English. G. So, if you take any 100word paragraph from an article, the chances are that 25 of them will be one of these words. 第三部分 英語(yǔ)知識(shí)運(yùn)用(共兩節(jié),滿分 45 分) 第一節(jié) 完形填空(共 20小題;每小題 ,滿分 30分) 閱讀下面短文,從短文后各題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)( A、 B、 C 和 D)中,選出可以填人空白處的最佳選項(xiàng),并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。t get the 47 of being the oldest or the youngest.

I can honestly say that my answer to that question 61 (change) dramatically(戲劇性地)since I became a parent. Before the birth of my daughter, I taught at 62 private school, often viewing my students as overprotected, worrying 63 would happen when they went on to middle schools. Some did fine, and some did not. Some needed constant pats on the back, words of 64 (encourage) and extra support, which I 65 (happy) gave. Others were content on their own, needing little or no interaction(互動(dòng)) with their teacher. 66 for the most part, graduates would go on for higher schooling. I’d always supposed their parents were overprotective, for they were the ones that still walked their 67 (five) graders into the classroom and met them at the school gate. Admittedly, I laughed at those parents, 68 (think) their children would never learn to be 69 (independence) if they didn’t let go just a little. Then I had my own daughter. The moment I looked at her little face, I 70 (know) I’d do everything in my power to protect her and make sure she always felt safe! 第四部分 寫作(共兩節(jié);滿分 35 分) 第一節(jié) 短文改錯(cuò)(共 10小題;每小題 1分,滿分 10分) 假定英語(yǔ)課上老師要求同桌之間交換修改作文,請(qǐng)你修改你同桌寫的以下作文。錯(cuò)誤僅涉及一個(gè)單詞的增加、刪除或修改。刪除:把多余的詞用(\ )劃掉。 注意: 每處錯(cuò)誤及其修改均僅限一詞; 只允許修改 10 處,多者(從第 11 處起)不計(jì)分。請(qǐng)就此向網(wǎng)店客服寫郵件投訴。 注意: 1. 詞數(shù) 100 左右; 2. 可適當(dāng)增加細(xì)節(jié),以使行文連貫; 3. 開(kāi)頭和結(jié)尾已給出,不計(jì)入總詞數(shù)。文章介紹了家庭攝影大賽的四幅獲獎(jiǎng)作品。推理判斷題。s chest及 wonderfully creative and powerfully visual可知,這幅作品是把相機(jī)固定在 Anna Marriage丈夫的胸前拍攝的,因此它的拍攝方式很特 別,呈現(xiàn)出來(lái)的視角也不同尋常。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。 23.
