句意：考查动词-ing形式。句意：所有的家人都站在房子外面，渴望听到好消息。be dying to do sth.渴望，极想做某事，为固定短语，所以用动词-ing形式作伴随状语。 2.would have got
句意：考查虚拟语气。句意：我的车在路上坏了，不然的话我就会按时到达那里了。此处表示与过去事实相反的虚拟，再结合句意可知谓语动词应用would have done形式。 3.weekly
句意：考查词形转换。句意：众所周知，这种报纸一周出版两次。根据句意可知，此处应用副词weekly。 4.where
句意：考查定语从句。句意：游客们来到一个有许多美丽花朵的花园。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词a garden，并在定语从句中作地点状语，故填where。 5.drying
句意：考查动词-ing形式。句意：农民们抽水浇地以防止土壤变干。stop…(from)doing阻止……做。 6.across
句意：考查动词短语。句意：我在长安街的一家老书店里偶然发现了这本书。come across偶然发现。

句意：考查定语从句。句意：他们决定发表一篇与目前研究有关的论文。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词a paper，且在定语从句中作主语，故填which/that。 8.when
句意：考查固定句型。句意：我们正在讨论这个数学问题，这时学校的铃声响了。sb.be doing sth.when…为固定句型，意为“某人正在做某事，这时……”。 9.to circle
句意：考查非谓语动词。句意：你知道第一个乘宇宙飞船环绕地球的中国人是谁吗?Chinese前有序数词修饰，所以用动词不定式作后置定语。 10.yourself
句意：考查代词。句意：别担心。你迟早会适应大学生活的。adjust oneself to sth.是固定用法，意为“使自己适应……”，因主语为You，故填yourself。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
(2016·辽宁大连二十四中期中)In October on the east coast of Australia migrating humpback whales(座头鲸) pass very close to the shore. With the help of Max Egan, we went to film them near Byron Bay. It was extremely exciting to spot the little puffs of spray on the horizon. When migrating, the whales can be traveling at a speed of about 12 km/h and can dive under anywhere between five and forty minutes. With many years of experience Max usually guided our boat to exactly the right place to provide us with amazing sightings. As the whales break the surface like submarines, the water spills off their broad dark backs and huge tails. Then, with a powerful down stroke, they dive back into the depths of the sea, leaving just as smooth glassy patch of water or “footprint” on the surface to show where they were.
One day we traveled up and down the shore and far out to the sea in search of whales, but the horizon was deserted. There was no report of whales in the area so we decided to test out Max’s new, highly sensitive hydrophone(潜水测音器) and the result was astonishing. As soon as the hydrdrophone was in the water, we found ourselves listening to the most beautiful voices. What may have seemed like a vast empty ocean was filled with the singing of whales.
It is the males that sing, as they migrate between feeding and breeding(生育) grounds. No one knows for sure what the purpose of these songs is, whether they are love songs to the females or warnings to other males to stay away.
It was thought that each population of humpbacks had its own song which remained regular, but recent findings suggest that the whales appreciate a memorable tune and quickly adopt any new songs they hear.
语篇 导读 本文讲了关于座头鲸的新发现——它们能唱出美妙的歌声。 1.Which finding about whales is beyond the writer’s expectation? A.The little puffs. B.The songs of whales.
C.The traveling speed of whales. D.The depth of the whales’ dive. 2.What do we know about Max? A.He likes whales very much.
B.He is a brave scientist on whales.

B.Whales couldn’t sing to each other. C.Whales weren’t easy to find.
D.Whales couldn’t dive in the sea as long as forty minutes.
答案:1.解析：B考查细节理解。发现鲸美妙的歌声是作者的意外收获。根据第二段中的“we found ourselves listening to the most beautiful voices”可得出答案。
2.解析：C考查细节理解。由首段中的“With many years of experience Max usually guided our boat to exactly the right place…”可知C项正确。文中并未明确表明Max是制造潜水测音器的专家，故D项表述错误。
3.解析：C考查细节理解。根据首段中的“we went to film them”可知，作者寻找鲸的主要目的是拍电影。
4.解析：A考查细节理解。原来人们认为，每一种座头鲸都有属于自己的歌，但最近的调查发现证明这种观点是错误的。由最后一段可知A项正确。
Whether your dream is becoming a great scientist, or inventing a great machine, there are ways to achieve these goals.
Decide what’s important. It’s hard to know how to achieve a dream if you’re not entirely sure what it is that you want to make happen. 5 Consider what makes you feel satisfied. Is it singing in front of the audience? Is it saving the whales? Is it spreading knowledge?
Make goals. Once you have some ideas what your dreams are going to require, you will need to make specific goals and time frames that will help you keep on track. 6 You will still need to be flexible, but it will give you a good idea what kind of work, money and time is going to be needed.
Learn from your mistakes. Instead of feeling like you’ve hit a dead end when you make a mistake, examine what went wrong. 7 Mistakes are a good teacher and you will not be able to avoid them along the road.
Put in hard work. 8 You’re going to have to put in work to accomplish the things that are important to you. It means practicing, it means putting yourself out there, and it means making mistakes and learning from them.
Connect with others.People who fulfill their dreams tend to have a strong foundation. This means people who help you when you ask, people who encourage you, people who can act as your mentor, and so on. 9 For example, if there’s a journalist meeting in town and your dream is to be a journalist, make sure you go to it and talk to people.
A.Dreams don’t just achieve themselves. B.Think hard about what you love to do.
C.This doesn’t mean that things won’t change. D.Nobody who achieved anything did it on their own.
E.Look into what you’ll need to do to achieve your dreams.
F.Take advantage of opportunities to communicate with people in your chosen area. G.Whenever some sort of “failure” happens, it’s a chance to figure out what you might do next time.
