Section B 2a -2e 分层练习
基础达标
一、用所给单词的正确形式填空
1．____________(continue)the rich life, Chinese people keep on working hard.
【答案】To continue
【详解】句意：为了继续富裕的生活, 中国人民不断努力工作。根据“Chinese people keep
on working hard.”可知前半句是人民努力工作的目的，所以用动词不定式“to do”作目的状
语，因为是句子的开头，所以首字母要大写。故填To continue。
2．Jack has to receive baseball __________ (train) after school every day.
【答案】training
【详解】句意：杰克每天放学后必须接受棒球训练。train“训练”，动词。根据及物动词
“receive接受”，可知其后需要宾语，baseball training意为“棒球训练”，此处为名词
baseball作定语，修饰training，故填training。
3．Parents always give their children too much ___________ (press) these days.
【答案】pressure
【详解】句意：这些日子父母总是给他们的孩子太多压力。此处作宾语，其前被“too
much”修饰，可知填不可数名词；press“按压”，是动词，其名词pressure“压力”是不可数
名词，故填pressure。
4．They ___________ (usual) go to the sports club on weekends.
【答案】usually
【详解】句意：他们通常在周末去运动俱乐部。此处修饰动词go，应该用副词；usual“寻
常的”，是形容词，其副词为usually，故填usually。
5．Guiyang is developing so ________ (quick) that more and more graduates choose to work
here.
【答案】quickly
【详解】句意：贵阳发展如此之快以至于越来越多的毕业生选择在这里工作。根据空前的
“developing”可知，应该填的是quick的副词quickly“快速地”修饰动词，故填quickly。
二、完成句子（每空一词）
6．我是那么害怕，一动也不敢动。
I was __________ scared __________ I couldn’t move.
【答案】 so that
【详解】so+形容词+that，表示“如此……以至于……”，引导结果状语从句，故填so；
that。
7．父亲经常把我和哥哥做比较。My father often ________ me ________ my sister.
【答案】 compares with
【详解】根据中英文对照可知，空格处缺少“和……做比较”，其对应英文短语
“compare…with”，原句是一般现在时，主语“My father”是第三人称单数，谓语动词
compare用第三人称单数形式，即compares，故填compares；with。
8．随着科学的发展，更多的新技术被引入信息科技领域。
With the __________ of science, more new technology are introduced to the fields of IT.
【答案】development
【详解】development“发展”，with the development of“随着……的发展”，故填
development。
9．山姆喜欢和朋友们一起在公园闲逛。
Sam likes to ________ ________ ________ his friends in the park.
【答案】 hang out with
【详解】hang out with sb.“与某人一起闲逛”，动词短语；根据like to do sth.“喜欢做某事”
可知，此处用动词原形。故填hang；out；with。
10．他总是问我愚蠢的问题。
He ________ ________ ________ me silly questions.
【答案】 is always asking
【详解】根据中英文对照可知，总是做某事：be always doing sth，带有感情色彩；问：
ask；主语是He，be动词用is。故填is；always；asking。
11．在他看来，学生不应该把手机带到学校。
________ ________ ________, students shouldn’t bring their mobile phones to the school.
【答案】 In his opinion
【详解】“在某人看来”in one’s opinion。根据“他”可知用his代替one’s。故填In；his；
opinion。

作者和父母沟通后，他们理解了他，不再给他太多压力，作者因此更轻松、更健康、学习
更好了。
【详解】
6．句意：我们班大多数学生都生活在太多压力之下。此处被too much修饰，可知填不可
数名词。press“按压”，是动词，其名词pressure“压力”为不可数名词，故填pressure。
7．句意：一些学生不能和同学好好相处，而其他学生可能太过于担心他们的考试。此处修
饰动词短语“get on with”，应该用good的副词well，故填well。

饰其后名词exam，应该用they的形容词性物主代词their，意为“他们的”，故填their。

事”，所以此处填动词不定式作宾语补足语；compete“竞争”，是动词，故填to compete。

可知填名词复数；class“课程”，是名词，复数为classes，故填classes。

grade“成绩”，是名词，此处应该填复数表泛指，故填grades。

填动名词；hang out“闲逛”，是动词短语，故填hanging。

此处也用一般过去时；explain“解释”，是动词，其过去时为explained，故填explained。

可知填形容词比较级；healthy“健康的”，是形容词，其比较级为healthier，故填
healthier。
15．句意：就这样，我感觉没那么有压力了，而且现在学习也更好了。此处作系动词feel
的表语，应该填形容词；stress“压力”，是名词，其形容词为stressed“有压力的”，故填

拓展训练
阅读回答问题（2022·重庆·八中校考一模）
阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，完成下列各题。Did you have an experience of going from one after-school class to another on weekends?
Chinese students used to be busier on weekends than weekdays because they had to take so many
after-school classes. Many of them spent much time on these classes to learn exam skills.
But this year, Ma Xiaohua, a student from Grade 8 in Zhengzhou spent a winter holiday that
was quite different. “I felt more relaxed this holiday, because the homework is clearly much less
and more enjoyable,” said Ma. Things like doing some housework, making an English video to
introduce a Chinese custom, and reading aloud Home Letters by Fu Lei were part of her winter
holiday homework. Ma found herself doing more practice-based (基于实践的) learning instead of
always having her nose in workbooks. Another big difference for her was that she didn’t have
after-school classes anymore. “This gives me more time to play badminton and gradually get
healthier,” she said.
Like Ma, many junior high school students welcomed the changes, as they feel less stressed
than before. However, it doesn’t mean schoolwork isn’t important anymore. For some students,
they feel worried about the changes. “I used to take many after-school classes, but now I’ve lost
their instruction (指导) and need to depend on myself,” said ninth-grader Zhou Xiuwei from
Nanjing. “I felt more stressed this holiday.”
1．Were Chinese students busier on weekends than weekdays in the past?
__________________________________________________________
2．Why did many of the Chinese students spend much time on after-school classes?
__________________________________________________________
3．How was Ma Xiaohua’s winter holiday this year different from that in the past?
__________________________________________________________
4．Do you think it’s good for students not to have after-school classes anymore? Why or why
not?
__________________________________________________________
【答案】
1．Yes. / Yes, they were.
2．To learn exam skills. / Because they wanted to learn exam skills.
3．She had much less and more enjoyable homework. Also, she didn’t have any after-school
classes.
4．Answers may vary. Possible versions:
Yes. Because it gives students more time to relax themselves as well as develop hobbies that they
really enjoy, which is more important than learning itself.
No. Because the after-school classes provide the students with a chance to review their lessons and
improve their learning so that they can be more confident back in the school.
【导语】
本文主要讲述的是学生对课后辅导作业和作业的变化的看法。
【详解】1．根据“Chinese students used to be busier on weekends than weekdays because they had to
take so many after-school classes. ”可知，过去，中国学生在周末比平时更忙，因为他们要上
很多课外班，此处要用肯定回答。故填Yes. / Yes, they were.
2．根据“Many of them spent much time on these classes to learn exam skills.”可知，他们花很
多时间上课外班是为了学习考试技巧。故填To learn exam skills. / Because they wanted to
learn exam skills.
3．根据“ “I felt more relaxed this holiday, because the homework is clearly much less and
more enjoyable,” said Ma. ”和“ Another big difference for her was that she didn’t have after-
school classes anymore.”可知，与以前不同的是，她的家庭作业少了许多，却很有趣。而且，
她没有任何课后补习班。故填She had much less and more enjoyable homework. Also, she
didn’t have any after-school classes.
4．开放性题，答案合理即可。参考答案：Yes. Because it gives students more time to relax
themselves as well as develop hobbies that they really enjoy, which is more important than
learning itself./No. Because the after-school classes provide the students with a chance to review
their lessons and improve their learning so that they can be more confident back in the school.
