基础达标
一、用所给单词的正确形式填空
1．The group ________ (lead) is thinking of different ways to make the party more exciting.
【答案】leader
【详解】句意：小组组长正在考虑不同的方法来让聚会更加精彩。lead“领导”，名词或动
词。根据“thinking of ”可知此处是指leader“领导者”，根据“is”可知名词用单数。故填
leader。
2．The sun is ________ (shine) in the cloudless sky.
【答案】shining
【详解】句意：太阳在无云的天空中闪耀。根据“The sun is”可知太阳正在闪耀，空格处应
用shine的现在分词形式shining，与空前be动词构成现在进行时。故填shining。
3．It is amazing that Su Yiming won an Olympic ________ (gold) medal, although he was only
17 years old.
【答案】gold
【详解】句意：令人惊讶的是，苏翊鸣获得了奥运金牌，尽管他只有17岁。根据“an
Olympic ... medal”可知，此处指一块奥运金牌；gold medal“金牌”。故填gold。
4．Mr. White’s and Mr. Green’s ________ (wife) are both interested in the play.
【答案】wives
【详解】句意：怀特先生和格林先生的妻子都对这出戏感兴趣。根据空后单词“are”，结
合句意可知，本句主语汉语意思是“怀特先生和格林先生的妻子”，可以看出是两个人的
妻子，所以“wife”用复数形式wives，故填wives。
5．The lights are ________ (bright) here than those there—they’re hurting my eyes.
【答案】brighter
【详解】句意：这里的灯比那里的灯亮——它们正在伤害我的眼睛。根据“than those there
—they’re hurting my eyes.”可知，此处应填bright的比较级形式。故填brighter。
二、完成句子(每空一词)
6．这个星期六我们计划去野餐。
We ________ ________ ________ ________ have a picnic this Saturday.
【答案】 make a plan to
【详解】通过中英文对比可知，此处考查动词短语make a plan to do sth.“计划做某事”。这
句话描述的是一个客观事实，应该用一般现在时态。主语是we，谓语动词用原形。故填
make；a；plan；to。
7．昨天我路过商店时，听见他正在哭。
I heard him ________ when I ________ ________ the shop.【答案】 crying walked/passed past/by
【详解】根据题干可知，主句缺少“正在哭”的表达，cry“哭”，hear sb doing sth“听见某
人正在做某事”，所以第一空用现在分词；“路过”pass by/walk past，固定短语。由heard
可知，从句时态也用一般过去时，所以谓语动词用过去式，故填crying；walked/passed；
past/by。
8．请查一下火车什么时候离开。
Please ________ ________ when the train leaves.
【答案】 find out
【详解】“查一下”find out，主句省略主语，以动词原形开头，构成祈使句的肯定形式。
故填find；out。
9．这个小女孩迷路了，她找不到出去的路。
The little girl got lost and she couldn’t ________ ________ ________ ________.
【答案】 find her way out
【详解】根据英汉对照可知，此处考查动词短语find one’s way out“找到出路”。主语是the
little girl，则one’s对应物主代词her。couldn’t后接动词原形。故填find；her；way；out。
10．我一读完这本小说，就把它还给你。
________ ________ ________ I finish reading this novel, I will return it to you.
【答案】 As soon as
【详解】“一……就……”as soon as，引导时间状语从句，句首单词首字母大写。故填
As；soon；as。
能力提升
一、单项选择
11．I knocked at the door but ___________ answered. Maybe they went to the concert.
A．nobody B．somebody C．everybody D．anybody
【答案】A
【详解】句意：我敲了门但没人应答。也许他们去听音乐会了。
考查不定代词辨析。nobody没有人；somebody某人；everybody每个人；anybody任何人。
根据I knocked at the door“我敲了门”及Maybe they went to the concert“也许他们去听音乐会
了”，可知，敲了门但没人应答，所以空格处填nobody。故选A。
12．Tom won’t go to the zoo unless he ________ his homework.
A．finish B．finishes C．will finish D．is finishing
【答案】B
【详解】句意：汤姆不会去动物园，除非他做完作业。
考查条件状语从句的主将从现。unless引导的条件状语从句中，遵循“主将从现”原则，
即主句采用一般将来时，从句采用一般现在时，从句主语he为第三人称单数形式，因此谓语动词finish应用其三单形式finishes。故选B。
13．—Li Mei’s ________ is very beautiful.
—Yes. Her songs ________ very beautiful.
A．noise; voice B．voice; sound C．voice; voice D．shout; sound
【答案】B
【详解】句意：——李梅的嗓音很美。——是的。她的歌听起来很美妙。
考查名词辨析。noise噪声；voice嗓音；shout呼喊；sound声音，泛指自然界的各种声音，
做动词时，表示“听起来”。名词所有格Li Mei’s后接名词。根据第一空空格后的“very
beautiful”可知此处指的是她的嗓音很优美，应用名词voice。Her songs为名词作主语，后
接谓语动词，根据第二空空格后“very beautiful”可知此处表示“她的歌听起来很美妙”，
应用动词sound来表示“听起来”。故选B。
14． useful robot ! It can help with the housework like a human servant.
A．How B．What an C．How a D．What a
【答案】D
【详解】句意：多有用的机器人啊！它能像一个佣人一样帮着干家务。这是感叹句结构，
what +（a/an）+形容词+名词（单数）（+主语+谓语）！ how+形容词/副词（+主语+谓
语）！；故选D
15．Tom has grown ________ enough to take care of ________.
A．young; him B．up; himself C．old; him D．old; himself
【答案】D
【详解】句意：汤姆已经足够大可以照顾自己了。
考查形容词和代词辨析。根据题干可知，第一空是考查形容词+enough+to do sth. “足够……
做某事”这一结构，后面说他可以照顾自己，因此是足够大，用old。结合主语“Tom”和
“take care of”可知是照顾他自己，因此用反身代词himself。故选D。
二、短文综合填空
Once upon a time, there was a man called Zheng. He lived in a small town. One day he
wanted to buy himself ___16___ new pair of shoes. He measured (测量) his ___17___ (foot)
with a ruler and then ___18___ (write)down his size on a piece of paper. After that he went shoe

___22___ (hour) and the shop was ___23___ (close). He spent the afternoon on the way and did

(you)?”“Of course,” he answered.
“Then why don’t you t____25____ on the shoes by yourself?”
“I trust the ruler more than my feet.” he answered.
【答案】
16．a 17．feet 18．wrote 19．at 20．(b)ut 21．keeper 22．hours 23．closed 2
4．yourself 25．(t)ry
【导语】
本文主要讲述了一个人想买一双鞋，他测量了自己脚的尺寸并写在了一张纸上，当他在鞋
店寻找那张纸条时，发现不见了，于是他返回家去找纸条。当他回来时，鞋店已经关门了。
【详解】
16．句意：有一天他想去给自己买一双新鞋。空后面有“pair of”可知考固定搭配“a pair
of”一双。故填a。
17．句意：他用尺子测量了一下他的脚，然后在一张纸上记录下来了他的尺码。根据句意
他测量了一下他的脚，可知两只脚是复数。故填feet。
18．句意：他用尺子测量了一下他的脚，然后在一张纸上记录下来了他的尺码。根据文中
“measured”为一般过去时，又用and连接两个句子，故write也用过去式wrote。故填
wrote。
19．句意：当他到鞋店的时候。根据句意可知，到达某地为“arrive in+大地方/at+小地方”，
鞋店shoe shop为小地方，用介词at。故填at。
20．句意：当他到鞋店的时候，他伸进口袋，但是他发现纸条不在。根据题意可知，前后
是转折关系，用but连接。故填(b)ut。
21．句意：所以他对店员说：“我把纸条落在家里了我不知道鞋码”。根据句意可知他是
对店员说的，故用动作的执行者keeper。故填keeper。
22．句意：但是这件事花费了他好几个小时。句中有“a few”修饰可数名词并且hour是可
数名词，故用hour的复数形式。故填hours。
23．句意：但是这件事花费了他好几个小时，商店已经关门了。根据句中“was”后接形容
词作表语，closed形容词，关闭的。故填closed。
24．句意：有人问他：“你是想给你自己买鞋吗？”根据句中for为谁，可知这想问是为
自己买，故用反身代词yourself。故填yourself。
25．句意：为什么你自己不试试鞋呢？根据句意和首字母提示可知，考查固定短语试穿try
on。Why don’t you+动词原形。故填(t)ry。
拓展训练
一、阅读单选（2022秋·湖南永州·八年级统考期末）
Once upon a time, there was a millionaire who loved money more than jewelry or silk. He didn’t
know exactly how much he had, so he took on a little girl to count all his money for him. It tookthe little girl six days to count all the money. When she told the millionaire that he had forty-two
million dollars, he was wild with joy and asked, “How much money do you want?” He thought
she was only a child and he could give her less money.
The girl said, “Well, I worked for six days, so I think you should pay me for six days. Give
me two pennies for the first day. Each day after that, just give me the amount you give me the day
before, multiplied (乘以) by itself.”
The millionaire thought that in this way he would only have to give her a few dollars. What a
foolish girl!
On the first day, the millionaire paid her two pennies, and on the second day, two pennies
times two pennies, or four pennies.
Each day after that, he gave her the number of pennies he had given her the day before,
multiplied by itself. And by the sixth day the foolish millionaire had to give the clever girl all his
money.

【导语】

【详解】
1．细节理解题。根据第一段“Once upon a time, there was a millionaire who loved money
more than jewelry or silk.”可知百万富翁爱钱胜过爱珠宝或丝绸。故选A。
2．推理判断题。根据第二段“Give me two pennies for the first day. Each day after that, just
give me the amount you give me the day before, multiplied (乘以) by itself”可知第一天给两便士，
之后的每一天，把你前一天给的钱乘以它本身。那么第二天2×2=4，第三天4×4=16。故选
C。
3．细节理解题。根据最后一段“And by the sixth day the foolish millionaire had to give theclever girl all his money.”可知这个愚蠢的百万富翁不得不把所有的钱都给了这个聪明的女孩。
故A项错误。故选A。
