Once again, all the villagers came to congratulate him on his ________luck. Like always, the old man was still thankful to them and said, \"Whatever happens, happens for good.\"
【答案】 called;wondered;but;politely;leg;them;to hear;to join;broken;good 【解析】【分析】主要讲了中东地区的一个叫做Sthira的老人总认为无论发生什么,都是好事。
(1)句意:在一个村庄里有一个叫做Sthira的老人。句子已经有谓语was,man和call间表示被动,所以用动词过去分词做man的定语,call的过去分词是called,故填called。 (2)句意:Sthira的朋友想知道是否他的儿子将回来。时态是一般过去时,所以用wonder的过去式wondered,故填wondered。
(3)句意:但是Sthira总是说“无论发生什么,都是好事”。前后句表示转折,所以用but,但是,故填but。
(4)句意:他感谢了村民,并且礼貌地说“无论发生什么,都是好事”。副词修饰实义动词,said是实义动词,所以用形容词polite的副词politely,礼貌地,故填politely。 (5)句意:然而,之后Sthira的儿子摔断了他的腿。根据后文His son's leg got badly hurt!他儿子的腿严重受伤,可知摔断的是一根腿,故填leg。
(6)句意:老人再次感谢了他们,说:“无论发生什么,都是好事”。thanked,感谢,及物动词,后面用宾格,主格they的宾格是them, 他们,故填them。
(7)句意:一些村民听到这个很惊讶。be+形容词+to do sth.做某事怎样,固定搭配,故填to hear。
(8)句意:几天后,军队来到村子里,强迫所有的年轻人参军。force sb. to do sth.强迫某人做某事,固定搭配,故填to join。
(9)句意:当他们发现他的儿子有一根腿断了时,他们把他留下了。形容词修饰名词,leg是名词,所以用动词break的形容词broken,摔断的,故填broken。
(10)句意:所有的村民来庆祝他的好运。老人的运气是好的,形容词修饰名词,luck是
名词,所以用形容词good,好的,故填good。
【点评】考查语法填空,考查词汇在语篇中的运用能力。注意理解句意,首先读一遍,然后再逐一作答。注意句型、搭配、短语及语境。

What will life be like in the future? Many people, magazines and movies have told us that robots will be able to work for us. Although robots can already make cars, play music and do many trivial things for us, in the future, they can do more things, such as making websites, making houses and so on. Some people even believe that in the future with the help of robots, we needn't work.
In the future, people might create a \"man\" that cannot have a will of his own and has to follow orders only from his master(主人). The master must train him mentally with computers. As you know, an adult who follows the same training over and over again will not be able to change without another training. This means the master can have him work in a factory with no payment. And he will still be happy even if he only gets the basic life-support goods, because it's the way he was trained. I believe that this is the reason why the government does not allow any human research.

13.阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
Have you ever had thought about building a robot? Or putting together a spaceship? Or even seeing your face made out of chocolate? Done. All you need is a 3-D printer.
The possibilities of 3-D printing seem endless. All the user has to do is to design an object on the computer and choose a material to print in. The printers print in hundreds of different materials including glass, sugar and even skin! When the user presses \"printhe 3-D printer spreads the materials layer by layer and like magic the object is produced.
The first 3-D printer was invented in 1986 by American, Charles Hull. But 3-D printing has only become cheap enough recently for most people to use. Designers now use 3-D printing to create unusual things. The Dutch artist Dirk Vander Kooj prints furniture made from old fridges. And doctors have used 3-D printing to print human body parts! The Telegraph reported in February that scientists from Cornell Medical College even printed a man-made ear.
But like a lot of new technologies, if 3-D printing gets into the wrong hands, it can be dangerous.
In 2011 a group of four men in the US used 3-D printing to produce ATM skimmers. These were
placed on an ATM and stole over $400,000 from users of the ATM. It is terrible to think that criminals like them might one day use a 3-D printer to print a gun.
But for better or for worse, 3-D printing has been put into use. In a few years, you'll probably be wondering how you could ever live without your 3-D printer! (1)________ invented the first3-D printer.
A. Charles Hull B. Four men in the US C. Dirk Vander Kooj D. A doctor called Cornell (2)What is the correct order for people to use a 3-D printer? a. choose a proper material. b. Press \"print\".
c. The 3-D printer spreads the material. d. Use a computer to design an object.
A. a-b-c-d B. d-c-b-a C. a-c-d-b D. d-a-b-c (3)According to the passage, people have NOT yet produced ________ with a 3-D printer. A. a gun B. some furniture C. a man-made ear D. ATM skimmers (4)What does the writer think of the 3-D printer?
A. It is useless in our daily life. B. It is helpful but dangerous. C. It is important only for our work. D. It is too expensive for most people. 【答案】 (1)A (2)D (3)A (4)B

Rock climbing did not become a sport until late in the 1900s. But now it has become a popular outdoor activity. While rock climbing may still be necessary for mountain climbing, most people just climb low mountains for fun.
If you have ever done rock climbing, you will know that it is not a very easy sport. Indoor and outdoor rock climbing both need practice. What most people don't know is that rock climbing is one of the sports that depend on your body and mind.
To climb successfully, one must use wonderful skills. One of the important rules is to always have three parts of your body on the rock face. Another important rule is that your arms only hold you close to the rock face while your legs are pushing you up. The closer you are to the rock face, the easier it is to climb.
