第二课时(分层作业)
基础达标
一、单词拼写
1．The children have learnt about the fact that （光）travels faster than sound.
【答案】light
【详解】句意：孩子们已经知道光比声音传播得快这一事实。light“光”，不可数名词，故
填light。
2．My bed is made of (木头).
【答案】wood
【详解】句意：我的床是木头做的。“木头”wood，此处作不可数名词。故填wood。
3．The news on TV (报道) a car accident happened in our city this morning.
【答案】reported
【详解】句意：今天早上电视上的新闻报道了一起发生在我们城市的车祸。“报道”是
report。根据“happened”及“this morning”可知要用一般过去时，report的过去式是
reported，故填reported。
4．—A box of (火柴) is on the table. Could you get it for me?
—Here you are.
【答案】matches
【详解】句意：——桌子上有一盒火柴。你能帮我拿一下吗？——给你。根据汉语提示
“火柴”，可知英文表达是match，可数名词，由前面的“A box of”，指的是“一盒火
柴”，因此这里应用其复数形式matches。故填matches。
5．After one night of wind, there are many f flowers on the ground.
【答案】(f)allen
【详解】句意：经过一夜的风，地上有许多落花。根据“After one night of wind”可知大风
会使花落下，用fallen表示“落下的，落在地上的”，形容词作定语。故填(f)allen。
6．It is reported that a wild tiger （sudden）went into a village and hurt a villager in
Heilongjiang Province.
【答案】suddenly
【详解】句意：据报道，在黑龙江省，一只野生老虎突然闯入一个村庄，伤害了一名村民。
此处修饰动词，应用副词suddenly“突然”，故填suddenly。
7．—Why didn’t you reply to my Wechat?
—Sorry. I (help) my neighbour look after her baby.
【答案】was helping
【详解】句意：——你为什么不回复我的微信？——对不起。我正在帮助我的邻居照看她
的孩子。根据“Why didn’t you reply to my Wechat?”可知，回答那时正在做什么，需要过去进行时，主语是I，be动词用was；故填was helping。
8．Thirty minutes after she left, it started to snow （heavy）.
【答案】heavily
【详解】句意：她离开30分钟后，开始下起了大雪。此空修饰动词snow，应填副词
heavily，故填heavily。
9．When the rainstorm came, it (begin) to rain hard and the wind blew strongly.
【答案】began
【详解】句意：当暴风雨来临时，开始下起了大雨，风刮得很厉害。and连接两个并列成
分，由后面的blew可知句子时态用一般过去时，begin的过去式为began。故填began。
10．Soft music can help us fall (sleep) faster and wake up less during the night.
【答案】asleep
【详解】句意：轻柔的音乐可以帮助我们更快入睡，在夜间少醒来。fall asleep为固定短语，
意为“入睡”，故填asleep。
二、选词填空
(1) (raise, rise)
11．The government called on people to money for the earthquake-hit areas. (raise,
rise)
【答案】raise
【详解】句意：政府号召人们为地震灾区募捐。根据“for the earthquake-hit areas”可知是为
地震灾区募捐，rasie money“集资；筹款；募捐”，不定式符号to后接动词原形。故填
raise。
12．As spring comes, the temperature higher and the trees begin to turn green. We all
can’t wait to go for a walk in the countryside. (raise, rise)
【答案】rises
【详解】句意：随着春天的到来，气温升高，树木开始变绿。我们都迫不及待地想去乡下
散步。根据“the temperature … higher”可知，此空应填不及物动词rise“升起”，结合begin
可知，此句是一般现在时，主语是不可数名词，动词用三单，故填rises。
(2) (sleep，asleep与sleepy)
13．—Why are you looking in class all day? (sleep，asleep与sleepy)
—Because I can’t finish my homework until eleven every night.
【答案】sleepy
【详解】——你为什么整天在课上看起来都很疲倦？——因为我每天晚上都直到11点才能
完成作业。根据“Because I can’t finish my homework until eleven every night.”可知，空格里
应该填“困倦的”。sleep动词，睡觉；asleep形容词，睡着的；sleepy形容词，困倦的。
故填sleepy。14．Grandpa fell when watching TV.(sleep，asleep与sleepy)
【答案】asleep
【详解】句意：爷爷看电视时睡着了。fall asleep意为“入睡”，固定搭配，故填asleep。
15．Linda on the bed when the doorbell rang. (sleep，asleep与sleepy)
【答案】was sleeping
【详解】句意：琳达正在床上睡觉，这时门铃响了。sleep睡觉，动词；asleep睡着的，形
容词；sleepy困倦的，形容词。根据题干可知，设空处缺少谓语动词，因此应用sleep；再
由“when the doorbell rang”，可知是当门铃响起时琳达正在睡觉，rang是ring的过去式，
因此此处时态应用过去进行时，其结构为was/were+动词的现在分词，主语是第三人称单数，
用was，sleep的现在分词是sleeping。故填was sleeping。
能力提升
三、单项选择
16．— What did the teacher say just now?
— Sorry, I didn’t hear it. I out of the window.
A．look B．looked C．am looking D．was looking
【答案】D
【详解】——老师刚才说什么了？——抱歉，我没听到。刚才我在往窗外看。
考查过去进行时。此处表示在刚才老师说话的时候，我在往窗外看，表示过去一段时间一
直持续的动作，用过去进行时，结构was/were doing，主语是I，be动词用was。故选D。
17．My father was preparing for his speech ________ my mother was cleaning the room at this
time last night.
A．while B．if C．unless D．until
【答案】A
【详解】句意：昨天晚上这个时候我爸爸正在准备他的演讲；我的妈妈正在打扫房间。
考查while引导过去进行时。while当……的时候；if如果；unless除非；until直到。while
前后动作是延续性动词时，动词时态应变为进行时态。根据空格前后时态过去进行时可知
符合while的用法。故选A。
18． —Did you_________the first place of the league match?

A．beat; beat B．beat; won C．win; won D．win; beat
【答案】D
【详解】句意：你们在联赛中取得第一了吗？当然了。我们打败了其他所有的队。win“取
得胜利，获胜”；beat“打败”，win+比赛，beat+sb。故选D。

window.
A．through; against B．against; through
C．against; against D．through; through【答案】B
【详解】句意：他爬上靠墙的梯子，从窗户进了房间。
考查介词辨析。against倚；through通过。根据“the ladder…the wall”可知，第一个空表示
“倚着墙”，所以第一个空填against。根据“went into the room … the window”可知，从窗
户进了房间，所以第二个空填through，故选B。
20．— Look! The fire is ________.
— Let’s put more wood on it.
A．dying down B．going off C．picking up D．cutting out
【答案】A
【详解】句意：——看！火渐渐熄灭了。——再加些木头在上面。
考查动词短语辨析。dying down逐渐消失；going off离开；picking up捡起，学会；cutting
out切断，删去。根据句意和答句“Let’s put more wood on it.”可知由于火快熄灭了，所以要
再加些木头，故选A。

out,”they said. “You′re in danger and you are endangering others. We′ll search for this. Go home.”
The father only responded, “Are you going to help me?” and returned to his digging.

stone and heard his son. He called his son′s name: “ARMAND!” He heard back, “Dad? It′s me,
Dad! I told the other kids not to worry. I told them that you would come to save us.”
“What′s going on there?” the father asked.
“There are 14 of us left out of 33, Dad,” his son answered.
