第二节 语法填空（共10小题，每题2分，共20分） 仔细阅读下面短文，短文中有10个空格。请按照语境以及括号里的具体要求完成语法填空、词形变化等。答案填写在答题卡标号为16—25的对应位置。 The holiday’s upon us. After months of study, you have some time to yourself. So, why not read a book? Well, some people will say, ‘Why trouble with books? We have the Internet and 16 media that offer a lot more 17 (colour) programs. Books are history!” But don’t be fooled. There’s still a lot to be said for reading and reading as widely as possible. One clear reason is that a well-chosen book is a wonderful collection 18 words and expressions, so long as you have a good dictionary, of course. Believe me, it’s far easier to get new English words and expressions from a book or article 19 it is from the TV or the Internet. But an even more important point is 20 books give you something that modern media simply can not: The webpage is always full of pictures and the text is often designed to make it as easy to read as possible. Though “easy” may be welcome, 21 (luck) it’s of little use for any long-time development of reading skills and the general language level. For that, there’s still no substitute(替代品) for a book. But perhaps the best single reason is that simply 22 (choose) what you read and doing it by yourself 23 (mean) that it’s something you do by and for yourself. You can choose what you want to read. It’s hard work, 24 while you are reading, you’ll find that what once 25 (seem) like a duty is now a pleasure.

All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money. When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle can save him now,” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully. She hurried to a drugstore with the money in her hand. “And what do you want?” asked the salesman. “It’s for my little brother,” the girl answered. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a miracle.” “Pardon?” said the salesman. “My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?” “We don’t sell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry,” the salesman said with a smile. “Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.” A well-dressed man heard it and asked, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?” “I don’t know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs an operation.

A man noticed his father alive on television — five years after he thought he had cremated(火化) him. A body discovered three years after his disappearance in 2000 was thought to be the pensioner (a retired person), but it’s now emerged(显出) it wasn’t. When John Delaney disappeared, he was spending much of his time living outside, and sleeping on the streets. He was last seen in a hospice(收容所) in Manchester. His family searched the streets of the city for him but had no luck. So when a badly-rotten body was found in the grounds of the Manchester Royal Infirmary in 2003, wearing similar clothes, police believed it was Mr Delaney and his family held a funeral. But earlier this year his son, John Renehan, saw a picture of his father on a BBC programme. An appeal was being made for anyone who knew the man — who had memory loss—to give information. John Renehan: Well I knew at that very moment that was my dad. I knew at that very moment. Obviously his face, it was a bit changed, but I just knew at that very moment that was my dad. It emerged that John Delaney had been living in a care home for the last eight years. Police have admitted they made mistakes and their enquiries were insufficient. Mr Delaney’s son now wants to know the identity of the man he cremated — thinking it was his father. 31．John Renehan cremated his “father” . A．in 2003 B．in 2000 C．in 2005 D．in 2008 32．What mistake did police make? A．They couldn’t find Mr Delaney as soon as possible. B．In 2003, they took a badly-rotten body for Mr Delaney. C．They didn’t give any information to John Renehan. D．They made John Renehan cremate the rotten body. 33．The most probable reason why Delaney disappeared was that . A．he had memory loss. B．his family disliked him C．he liked to live outside D．he met with a friendly family 34．It can be inferred from the passage that Delaney . A．has recovered his memory B．often quarrelled with his family C．loitered(游荡) in the streets for 5 years D．was once a man with luck 35．Which of the following is the best title?

Some children are natural-born bosses. They have a strong need to make decisions, manage their environment, and lead rather than follow. Stephen Jackson, a Year One student, “operates under the theory of what’s mine is mine and what’s yours is mine,” says his mother. “The other day I bought two new Star Wars light sabres(剑). Later, I saw Stephen with the two new ones while his brother was using the beat-up ones.” “Examine the extended family, and you’ll probably find a bossy grandparent, aunt, uncle or cousin in every generation. It’s an inheritable trait,” says Russell Barkley, a professor at the Medical University of South Carolina. Other children who may not be particularly bossy can gradually gain dominance(支配地位) when they sense their parents are weak, hesitant, or in disagreement with each other. Whether it’s inborn nature or developed character at work, too much control in the hands of the young isn’t healthy for children or the family. Fear is at the root of a lot of bossy behaviour, says family psychologist John Taylor. Children, he says in his book From Defiance to Cooperation, “have secret feelings of weakness” and “a desire to feel safe.” It’s the parents’ role to provide that protection. When a “boss child” doesn’t learn limits at home, the stage is set for a host of troubles outside the family. The overly willful and unbending child may have trouble obeying teachers or coaches, for example, or trouble keeping friends. It can be pretty lonely as the top dog if no one likes your bossy ways. “I see more and more parents giving up their power,” says Barkley, who has studied bossy behaviour for more than 30 years. “They bend too far because they don’t want to be as strict as their own parents were. But they also feel less confident about their parenting skills. Their kids, in turn, feel more anxious.” 36．Bossy children like Stephen Jackson A．make good decisions B．show self-centeredness C．lack care from others D．have little sense of fear 37．The underlined phrase “inheritable trait” in Paragraph 2 means A．inborn nature B．developed character C．accepted theory D．particular environment 38．The study on bossy behaviour implies that parents . A．should give more power to their children B．should be strict with their children C．should not be so anxious about their children D．should not set limits for their children 39．Bossy children may probably become . A．relaxed B．skillful C．hesitant D．lonely 40．What is the passage mainly about? A．How bossy behaviour can be controlled. B．How we can get along with bossy children. C．What leads to children’s bossy behaviour. D．What effect bossy behaviour brings about.

The oldest forms of medicine are enjoying a comeback. Modern holistic medicine is an approach that treats the whole patient, not just the disease. It is a way to maintain good health rather than cure illness. The most important influences on today’s holistic medicine are ancient Chinese medicine and Indian Ayurvedic medicine, both of which promoted whole body health. Holistic medicine usually combines diet, physical exercise and meditation, together with other alternative techniques such as massage(按摩) and acupuncture(针炙). Herbal treatment, a practice of treating illness by using plants, is influenced by the writings of Culpeper as well as Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. Homeopathy(顺势疗法) is one of the forms of holistic medicine which is widely practiced in Europe and the USA. Homeopathy began in Germany in the early 1800s, when Samuel Hahnemann described how very tiny doses(剂量) of a drug had an effect on his patients. According to Hahnemann, the more the drug was diluted(稀释), the stronger its effects. The substance selected would produce similar effects to the disease itself if given in large doses. In the UK homeopathy is regarded as a non-traditional but just about acceptable treatment. Meditation and contemplation have an important role in holistic medicine. They were brought to Europe by Indian teachers who combined Indian Ayurvedic medicine with Western beliefs. Transcendental meditation(超脱静坐) is one of the best known of these techniques. People repeat words inside their head to reach a state of deep relaxation. The holistic movement has made many doctors look at the whole patient, not just the disease. Life-style, emotional problems and diet are just some of the factors that can affect a person’s health. Holistic medicine emphasizes good diet, exercise and fresh air, all of which contribute to health. Some clinics now offer holistic medicine along with traditional treatments, so that their patients can choose a combination of treatments that suits them. One problem with holistic medicine is that it is difficult for people to be sure a doctor is reliable. To solve this, many countries want alternative doctors to form professional bodies. 41．Modern holistic medicine centres upon . A．curing a disease B．herbal treatment C．continuous development D．keeping patients healthy 42．Which of the following does NOT belong to holistic medicine? A．massage B．meditation C．a balanced diet D．a knee operation 43．The principle of homeopathy is that . A．the large doses of medicine that will not be harmful will take better effect B．the disease will be cured sooner by taking larger doses of medicine C．a small thinner dose of medicine will be more effective D．the doses of medicine depend on how serious the illness is 44．Which of the following titles best sums up the passage? A．Holistic Medicine B．Traditional Medicine Returns C．History of Medicine D．Combination of Treatments Works 45．What can we infer from the passage? A．Relaxation is the key of holistic treatment. B．Holistic medicine needs to become more trustworthy. C．Holistic treatment is more beneficial than traditional treatments. D．Holistic medicine will become the most welcome treatment soon.
