Ⅰ.七选五
(2019·湖北七市3月模拟)
There was a survey of the people who were born from 1980 to 2000, asking them what their most important life goals were.Over 80 percent said it was to get rich. 1 We’re constantly told to devote more to our work, to push harder and to achieve more.We’re given the impression that these are the things that we need to go after to have a good life.But is that the truth？ 2
But what if we could study people from the time when they were teenagers all the way into old age to see what really keeps people happy and healthy? The Harvard Study of Adult Development did it.For 75 years, they’ve tracked the lives of 724 men.Studies like this are extremely rare.Almost all projects of this kind fall apart within a decade because too many people drop out of the study. 3 Or the researchers can’t get together.But through a combination of luck and the persistence of several generations of researchers, this study has survived.
So what have they learned? The conclusion is that it’s not wealth or fame that counts.
4 They’ve learned three big lessons about relationships.Firstly, people who are more socially connected to family, to friends and to community are happier and physically healthier.The second is that it’s not just the number of friends you have but the quality of your close relationships that matters.And the third is that good relationships don’t just protect our bodies. 5 A．They can even protect our brains.
B．To become famous came second. C．Or funding for the research dries up. D．The good life is built with relationships.
E．It turns out that being in conflict is bad for our health. F．It is good relationships that keep us happier and healthier. G．To be frank, sometimes wealth and fame can make people happy. 语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究：什么能真正让人们快乐和健康呢？坦率地说，有时财富和名望能让人快乐，但是良好的人际关系让我们更快乐、更健康。 1．答案 B
解析 根据前文“There was a survey of the people who were born from 1980 to 2000, asking them what their most important life goals were.Over 80 percent said it was to get rich.”可知有一项针对1980年到2000年出生的人的调查，询问他们最重要的生活目标是什么，超过80%的人说是发家致富。结合选项可知B项“To become famous came second.”符合文意。 2．答案 G
解析 前文说“一直以来我们的印象是，为了过上美好的生活，我们需要追求名和利。但这是事实吗？”，结合选项只有G项“To be frank, sometimes wealth and fame can make people happy.”说到了名和利，故选G。 3．答案 C
解析 根据前文“Almost all projects of this kind fall apart within a decade because too many people drop out of the study.”可知几乎所有类似的项目在十年内都会分崩离析，因为有太多人退出了这项研究。紧
接着下面就提到了导致失败的原因。故C项“或是研究经费枯竭”符合文意。 4．答案 F
解析 根据下文“They’ve learned three big lessons about relationships.”可知F项“It is good relationships that keep us happier and healthier.(良好的人际关系让我们更快乐、更健康)”符合文意。 5．答案 A
解析 根据前文“And the third is that good relationships don’t just protect our bodies.”可知是在说良好的人际关系的好处，故A项“They can even protect our brains.(它们甚至可以保护我们的大脑)”符合文意。 Ⅱ.完形填空 (2019·广东深圳二调)

语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。作者在小学时，做一项“用牙签搭建小屋”的手工作业，在体会到这一过程的不易和成功带来的自豪后，也发现了自己真正的长处所在。 26．答案 to hold
解析 考查非谓语动词。此处为“主语＋be＋adj.＋不定式”结构，不
定式与句子的主语构成逻辑上的主谓关系，故用to hold。 27．答案 was thrown
解析 考查时态和语态。根据句中表示过去的时间状语可知，此处要用一般过去时；throw“使处于，使陷入”与主语是被动关系，故用被动语态。 28．答案 mine
解析 考查代词。while连接两个表示对比的分句，对比的是作者哥哥的功课和作者的功课，此处用名词性物主代词mine指代my schoolwork。 29．答案 a
解析 考查固定搭配。此处意为“我全然不知下一步要做什么”。at a loss “不知所措，困惑”为固定搭配。 30．答案 painful
解析 考查词性转换。根据后面的task可知，空处应用形容词修饰名词。
31．答案 stuck
解析 考查非谓语动词。此处是with复合结构，根据后面的by glue可知，此处表示“被粘在一起”，stick与everything是逻辑上的动宾关系，故用过去分词作宾补。 32．答案 pride
解析 考查词性转换。根据前面的of和语境可知，此处表示“自豪感”，空处应填名词pride。 33．答案 Unlike
解析 考查介词。上文提到Stan Munro是一个牙签工程师，空前一句提到这次作业帮助作者认识到他更擅长其他的事情，比如写作和弹钢
琴(而不擅长用牙签制作东西)。故此处应表示“不像Stan Munro，我不是当牙签工程师的料”。故填介词Unlike。 34．答案 which
解析 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是前面的the chance，关系词在从句中作主语，故用which。 35．答案 truly
解析 考查词性转换。空处修饰谓语动词，要用副词truly。 Ⅳ.短文改错

I still remember a embarrassing experience last month.That day，I was overslept.I was running around my apartment quickly because there was something scarier for me than be late for work.I called a taxi，put on a dress，put all the necessary things into my bags，and closed it without even looking into it.Then I took my wallet，and run out.It didn’t take much time get to work because I was hurrying the driver at every traffic light.At last，I was in the office.Surprising，when I opened my bag，I saw the 2 yellow or scared eyes of my cat looking at me.She seemed to be just as shocking as I was. 答案

第一处：考查冠词。embarrassing发音以元音音素开头，故a改为an。 第二处：考查语态。I与oversleep之间是主动关系，不用被动语态，故删除was。
第三处：考查代词。句意为：对我来说，没有什么比上班迟到更可怕的了。“nothing＋形容词比较级＋than...”相当于最高级，表示“没有什么比……更……的了”，故something改为 nothing。
第四处：考查非谓语动词。作介词than的宾语用名词或动名词，故be改为 being。
第五处：考查名词单复数。根据语境和下文可知，只带了一个包，故bags改为bag。
第六处：考查时态。事情发生在过去，应该用一般过去时，故run改为ran。
第七处：考查动词不定式。it takes/took (sb.) some time to do sth.做某事花费(某人)多少时间，是固定结构。
第八处：考查副词。修饰整个句子用副词，故Surprising改为 Surprisingly。
第九处：考查连词。yellow 和scared是并列而非选择关系，故or改为and。
第十处：考查形容词。用-ed结尾的形容词，表示“感到……的”，故shocking改为 shocked。 Ⅴ.书面表达 (2019·广东一模)
