代词；others另外几个，其余的，代词。根据句子成分分析可知，横线处应填形容词作定语修饰其后的名

【解析】
【详解】句意：你有一个漂亮的花园。这些花闻起来多么香甜啊！考查感叹句 的用法。sweet芳香的，形容词；sweetly气味芬芳地，副词。空后是主谓结构，由感官动词

A. won’t leave B. didn’t leave C. doesn’t leave D. hadn’t left
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意：虽然他和我们住了几年，但他没给我们留下什么印象。
考查动词时态。根据“ Although he lived with us for several years”可知，从句强调的是过去发生的事情，所以
主句也要用一般过去时。故选B。

A. divided B. have divided C. have been divided D. were divided
【答案】D
【解析】

then, my uncle put stones in our bags.”，以及后面的“he also took some stones out from our bags at times.”叔叔
时不时地往我们的背包里放些石头，有时候又从我们包里拿出一些石头，可知这应该是令我们感到很惊讶
的，故选A。
【68题详解】
句意：背包太沉了，当我们把它们放在地上时，我们松了一口气，而叔叔的背包有一半是空的。
though虽然；since自从；while然而；for为了。根据“The backpacks were so heavy that we gave a big sigh of
relief when we put them on the ground, … our uncle’s backpack was half-empty.”可知前后句之间表达的是转折
关系，因此用while连接，故选C。【69题详解】
句意：每次你生气地抱怨，我就往你的包里放一块石头。
correctly正确地；angrily生气地；seriously严肃地；confidently自信地。根据下文“When you talked about
something with positive (积极的) thinking, I took out a stone.”谈论积极的事情时就拿出一些石头，可知这里应
该是生气抱怨时就放入一些石头，故选B。
【70题详解】
句意：叔叔教给了我们人生中最重要的一课。
learned学习；replied答复；brought带来；taught教。根据上文“Your negative (消极的) thoughts are like
stones. You carry them in your mind just like those stones in bags.”可知是叔叔教给了我们人生中最重要的一课，
故选D。

plastics end up in the oceans every year.
Then she got to work building something that could help solve the problem: a remote-operated vehicle (遥控
潜水器) — ROV, Her ROV can move through water and find plastics on the ocean floor.
The actually cool part of Du’s ROV is the detection (探测) system. She uses a c ____ 7 3____ along with three
different kinds of light to find the plastics through pictures. She also uses visible (可见的) light to find unnatural

成为一名工程师，帮助解决世界问题。
【71题详解】
句意：要把它们全部清理干净似乎是不可能的。根据“and quickly realized there were many more tiny pieces

D. Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（12分）
In the middle of a city, there was a museum that was decorated with beautiful marble tiles (大理石砖) and a
huge marble statue (大理石像). Many people from all over the world visited the museum every day to admire the
statue. One night, the marble tiles started talking to the marble statue.
Tiles: Hey statue! Don’t you think it’s unfair that everybody comes here to admire you. They don’t notice us
at all.
Statue: My dear brothers. Don’t you remember that we are actually from the same place?
Tiles: Yes, we do. That is why we feel it is even more unfair. All of us were born from the same place, and yet
the world treats us so differently now. This is so unfair!
Status: Yes, you are right, my brothers. But do you still remember the day when the artist tried to work on
you, but you refused him?
Tiles: Yes, we didn’t like him. He had such sharp tools that we were frightened. We turned him away because
we didn’t want to get hurt.
Statue: Well, since you refused his tools, he couldn’t work on you. When he decided to give up on you, he
started working on me instead. I knew at once that I would be something different and special after his hard work. I
bored the pain and allowed him to fashion (雕琢) me as he wanted!
Tiles: But it hurt quite a lot.
Statue: My brothers, there is a price for everything in life. Since you decided to give up halfway, you can’t
complain about the world’s unfairness to you.
The marble tiles became quiet and deep in thought: “If _________________________.”

81. Because they were afraid of being hurt by the sharp tools.
82. To bear the pain and allow the artist to fashion him.
83. If we choose/want to be special/different admired by others/successful, we should bear pain. / We should know

admired by others now.
【解析】文章大意：本文通过博物馆里大理石砖和大理石像的对话，告诉我们成功来自艰苦努力的道理。
【78题详解】
根据“Many people from all over the world visited the museum every day to admire the statue.”可知每天都有许多
来自世界各地的人参观博物馆欣赏这座雕像。故填To admire the statue.
【79题详解】
根据“Tiles: Hey statue! Don’t you think it’s unfair that everybody comes here to admire you. They don’t notice us
at all.”瓷砖:嘿雕像!你不觉得大家都来这里欣赏你是不公平的吗?他们根本没有注意到我们。可知瓷砖觉得
不公平，故填The Tiles.
【80题详解】
根据“Statue: My dear brothers. Don’t you remember that we are actually from the same place?”雕像:我亲爱的兄
弟们。你不记得我们其实来自同一个地方吗?以及“Tiles: Yes, we do.”瓷砖:是的，我们是（来自同一个地
方）。可知瓷砖和雕像来自同一个地方，故填No, they weren’t.
【81题详解】
根据“Tiles: Yes, we didn’t like him. He had such sharp tools that we were frightened. We turned him away because
we didn’t want to get hurt.”瓷砖.:是的，我们不喜欢他。他的工具太锋利了，我们都吓坏了。我们拒绝了他，
因为我们不想受到伤害。可知瓷砖拒绝艺术家在上面作画因为他们害怕被锋利的工具弄伤，故填 Because
they were afraid of being hurt by the sharp tools.
【82题详解】词义猜测题。根据上文“Statue:…. I bored the pain and allowed him to fashion me as he wanted!”雕像: ……我忍
受着痛苦，听任他随心所欲地塑造我!结合“Statue: My brothers, there is a price for everything in life. Since you
decided to give up halfway, you can’t complain about the world’s unfairness to you.”雕像: 我的兄弟们，生命中
的一切都是有代价的。既然你决定半途而废，你就不能抱怨这个世界对你不公平。可知对于雕像，下划线
的“price”是指代价，也就是忍受痛苦，让艺术家塑造他。故填 To bear the pain and allow the artist to fashion
him.
【83题详解】
开放性作答。考生可以根据自己的理解作答，言之有理即可。故答案可以为：If we choose/want to be
special/different admired by others/successful, we should bear pain. / We should know that no pains, no gains we
should overcome difficulties. If we had allowed the artist to fashion us, we would be admired by others now.

Chinese parents are very generous with their children’s education no matter how much they need to pay. Some
parents send them to the best schools or even abroad.
The problem is that parents are only educating their kids on how to take multiple choice tests and how to study
well, but parents are not teaching them the most important skills. They need to be confident, happy and clever.
Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills, like cooking, sewing, and doing other housework.
Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. It is enjoyable but difficult. A
good cook always try to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job
successfully. A well-cooked dinner will give him much self-confidence.
Educators once suggested that parents give their child some older machines, such as a broken radio or TV set
to play with. It will make him curious and arouse his interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to fix
them. These activities are not only teaching a child to read a book but rather to think, and to use his mind.

W: Oh yes, it’s happening now. You see, the communications industry has made much progress in the last ten years.
M: And how do these people manage to work? I mean, what equipment do they have at home?
W: Well, they have a telephone, a television set, a printer, a computer to connect with other computers.
M: Oh yes. I see. But surely, there are some advantages in being able to work at home.
W: Yes. People can save time if they work at home because they don’t have to spend a lot of time getting to and
from their workplaces.
M: Ah yes. I see. What do you think about the conditions of home-workers?
W: Oh. Let me tell you what might happen. In the future, a British company in, for example, London, might
employ clerks in Sydney. Or a Paris company could have their secretaries in Spain, and then they just use the
telephone to call around for the labor.
M: It sounds terrific. Thank you so much for your information.
