考查時態(tài)。句意：我的飛機(jī)到達(dá)時，我妻子將上夜班。這就是為什么今天沒有人到機(jī)場接我。A.wasworking正在工作（過去進(jìn)行時態(tài)）;arrived到達(dá)（arrive的過去式或過去分詞）；B.willbeworking正在工作（將來進(jìn)行時態(tài)）;arrives到達(dá)（arrive的第三人稱單數(shù)）；C.willhaveworked工作（將來完成時態(tài)）;hasarrived到達(dá)（現(xiàn)在完成時態(tài)）；D.isworking正在工作（現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時態(tài)）;isarriving到達(dá)（現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時態(tài)）。根據(jù)“whynooneistomeetmeattheairporttoday”可知，妻子在今天我的航班到達(dá)時正在上夜班，所以沒法接機(jī)。主句的時態(tài)為將來進(jìn)行時態(tài)，時間狀語從句用一般現(xiàn)在時表將來，時間狀語從句的主語為myplane，所以要用第三人稱單數(shù)形式。故選B。2、B【分析】【詳解】

考查謂語動詞。句意：下個月這個時候雪就要融化了，我們這個周末去滑雪吧。A.melts融化；B.ismelted被融化；C.willbemelting將要融化；D.hasbeenmelted已經(jīng)融化。設(shè)空處在句中作謂語，根據(jù)時間狀語thistimenextmonth，可知句子的時態(tài)為將來進(jìn)行時。故選C。4、B【分析】【詳解】

考查動詞詞義辨析。句意：你永遠(yuǎn)不應(yīng)該基于任何在實踐中被證明不切實際的理論。A.focus集中；B.base以為基礎(chǔ)；C.reflect反映；D.impose強(qiáng)制實行。根據(jù)下文“atheory”可知是基于理論，符合上下文語境，故選B。5、B【分析】【詳解】

考查名詞詞義辨析。句意：如果出現(xiàn)異常情況，或者你患有癌癥等危重疾病，他們可以提前警告你，并有可能挽救你的生命。A.cold感冒；B.cancer癌癥；C.fever發(fā)燒；D.stomachache胃痛。根據(jù)“acriticalillness”可知，此處指嚴(yán)重的疾病，cancer符合題意。故選B。6、B【分析】【詳解】

考查動詞詞義辨析。句意：海象的眼睛比其他任何動物都能更快地適應(yīng)黑暗，因此可以在深水中捕獵。A.contribute貢獻(xiàn)；B.adapt適應(yīng)；C.take帶走；D.lead帶領(lǐng)。adaptto適應(yīng)。根據(jù)“thusallowingittohuntindeepwater.”可知，海象的眼睛能更快地適應(yīng)黑暗。故選B。7、B【分析】【詳解】

考查動詞詞義辨析。句意：通用汽車計劃到2035年將其兩家工廠轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)殡妱悠嚿a(chǎn)，科阿韋拉的另一家工廠將從2024年開始生產(chǎn)雪佛蘭Blazer的新車型。A.converse交談；談話；B.convert轉(zhuǎn)變；轉(zhuǎn)化；C.conserve節(jié)約；保護(hù)；D.preserve保護(hù)；保留。根據(jù)句意，此處指“將兩家工廠轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)殡妱悠嚿a(chǎn)”，故選動詞convert。故選B。8、A【分析】【詳解】

考查名詞詞義辨析。句意：鳥兒的歌聲是春天到來的信號。A.signal信號；B.warning警告；C.device設(shè)備；D.factor因素。根據(jù)Thebird’ssinging可知，此處為名詞signal“信號”，滿足句意要求。故選A項。二、短對話(共2題，共4分)9、A【分析】【原文】

【分析】【分析】

本文是一篇概要寫作。主要內(nèi)容是體育運動的好處。

【詳解】

第一步：閱讀。

認(rèn)真閱讀給定的原文材料；如果一遍不能理解，就多讀兩遍。閱讀次數(shù)越多，你對原文的理解就越深刻。

劃出那些能概括文章主題思想的單詞；短語或短句子；決定原文中哪些部分重要；哪些部分次重要，對重要的部分的主要觀點進(jìn)行概括。

簡要記下主要觀點——主題；標(biāo)題、細(xì)節(jié)等你認(rèn)為對概要寫作重要的東西。

第二步：寫作步驟。

瀏覽課文；找出主題：青少年進(jìn)行體育運動的好處。

分析文章的結(jié)構(gòu)，把它分成幾個部分，找出每個部分的主要思想，用自己的文字簡短地寫出來，本文分為五個部分。第一部分（總括）：Exceptforpopularitywithfriends,teenagersalsocanbenefitalotiftheydosportsasmuchastheycan.第二部分：First,it’sagoodopportunitytomaketeensgooutandsocialize.第三部分：Second,takingexerciseoftencanloseweightandkeepinshapewithoutpressure.第四部分：Next,sportsisabondthatlinksbetweenchildrenandtheirparents.第五部分（總結(jié)）：Allinall,everyonecanjoininthesportingactivitieswhetherheorsheisgoodenoughornot.

第三步：修改成文。

與原文比較看是否把所有重要的觀點都概括了；概要寫作中的觀點是否與原文中的完全一致。再檢查拼寫；語法和標(biāo)點符號的錯誤。

【點睛】

范文較為簡潔地將原文進(jìn)行概括；并且抓住了文章整體的主題和各段的主旨，其中不乏高級句型和詞匯：

邏輯銜接詞：first,second,next,allinall.

定語從句：sportsisabondthatlinksbetweenchildrenandtheirparents.

whether引導(dǎo)的狀語從句：everyonecanjoininthesportingactivitieswhetherheorsheisgoodenoughornot.【解析】Exceptforpopularitywithfriends,teenagersalsocanbenefitalotiftheydosportsasmuchastheycan.First,it’sagoodopportunitytomaketeensgooutandsocialize.Second,takingexerciseoftencanloseweightandkeepinshapewithoutpressure.Next,sportsisabondthatlinksbetweenchildrenandtheirparents.Allinall,everyonecanjoininthesportingactivitieswhetherheorsheisgoodenoughornot.12、略

【分析】【詳解】

考查短語和時態(tài)。atthistime在這時候；inthepark在公園里。根據(jù)時間狀語Atthistimetomorrow可知，用將來進(jìn)行時。根據(jù)句意，故翻譯為Atthistimetomorrow,wewillbecyclinginthepark.【解析】Atthistimetomorrow,wewillbecyclinginthepark.14、略

【分析】【詳解】

考查固定短語、動詞時態(tài)和名詞。inmyopinion是固定短語，意為“在我看來”；表示“做某事最好的方法”應(yīng)表達(dá)為thebestwaytodosth.，thebestway在此句中作主語；表示“保持健康”應(yīng)用keephealthy，應(yīng)放在不定式后與不定式一起作后置定語，故表示“保持健康的最好方法”應(yīng)為thebestwaytokeephealthy；表示“是”應(yīng)用be動詞，結(jié)合語意可知，此處應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時，而主語為thebestway，單數(shù)形式，故用is；表示“均衡飲食”應(yīng)表達(dá)為eatabalanceddiet，在句子應(yīng)與不定式構(gòu)成表語，故為toeatabalanceddiet。故翻譯為Inmyopinion,thebestwaytokeephealthyistoeatabalanceddiet.。【解析】Inmyopinion,thebestwaytokeephealthyistoeatabalanceddiet.五、讀后續(xù)寫(共1題，共3分)15、略

【分析】【分析】

文章以人物為線索展開；講述了一個農(nóng)民為了給妻子治病去城鎮(zhèn)上賣蔬菜，晚上回家時在路上發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個死人。農(nóng)民很害怕，跑走了，但是第二天卻被抓進(jìn)了警察局。警察想屈打成招，但是農(nóng)民堅持自己是清白的，拒不招供。一個年輕人救了他，證明了他的清白。

【詳解】

1.段落續(xù)寫：

①由第一段首句內(nèi)容“警官非常生氣；他要求警察再打他一頓?！笨芍?，第一段可描寫農(nóng)民被打得鼻青臉腫，但是依然堅持自己是清白的。

②由第二段首句內(nèi)容“農(nóng)夫很幸運。幾天后；一個年輕人帶著很多記者來到警察局。”可知，第二段可描寫有一個人證明了農(nóng)民的清白，農(nóng)民被釋放了。

2.續(xù)寫線索：

被打——害怕——堅持——作證——釋放——回家。

3.詞匯激活。

行為類。

①判刑：besentencedto/becondemnedto

②承認(rèn)：admit/acknowledge

③拯救：save/rescue

情緒類。

害怕：frightened/afraid/scared
