　　(2024·濟南模擬)

　　When Josephine Cooper was growing up, she learned the importance of charity from her parents. Although they made a modest living for their family of 10, they insisted on sharing with those less fortunate.

　　Half a century later, Mrs. Cooper became a beloved volunteer at the San Diego Food Bank, where she devoted herself to helping others. She organized and ran a distribution center of a church, helping it become the organization’s largest emergency food distribution center in San Diego. She was one of the 25 outstanding senior volunteers in the nation selected and invited to Washington D. C. to receive an award.

　　“She was the main person who helped us make that program grow, ”said Mike Doody, former director of the Food Bank, “She had a way of getting people to work together and to work hard. She was determined and stubborn, but in a good way. She had a good heart. ”People knew her as “Grandma” because of her selflessness and her devotion to helping hungry children and families. “She reminded people of their Grandma, ” Doody said.

　　As a widow with a young child in 1979, Mrs. Cooper was helped through a difficult financial time when the Food Bank provided her with groceries. “She devoted her life to giving back, ”said her daughter, Monica Cooper. It wasn’t unusual for a local church to call Mrs. Cooper to ask her to aid a needy family. “She would give people food out of her cupboard. Sometimes we would cook a meal for a family living in their car, ”Cooper said.

　　Although Mrs. Cooper was honoured to receive the national award for her volunteer work, she said being able to help others was her reward. She died of liver disease and kidney failure, aged 93. (295W)

　　(2024·昆明模擬)

　　根據短文內容, 從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

　　The War Against Sand

　　Imagine living on the edge of a vast desert, which is moving quietly closer to your village every day and covering your fields. The desert is on the move. This is called desertification.

　　Desertification occurs in regions close to an already existing desert. 　1　The first is over-use of water in the area. There is not enough water in any case, and if it is not carefully used, disaster can follow. As time goes on, water shortages make farming more and more difficult. In some places, locals can remember local lakes and marshes which were once the homes for all kinds of fish and birds. 　2　Farmers leave the land, and fields are replaced by deserts.

　　The second cause is misuse or over-use of the land. 　3　Ploughing(耕)large fields and removing bushes and trees mean that the wind will blow away the soil. Once the soil is lost, it is hard to replace, and if there is rain, it has nowhere to go, and brings no benefit.

　　　4　Every spring, the skies over some of eastern cities, thousands of kilometers away from the deserts, can be darkened by sandstorms. Dust from deserts can have a great effect on weather systems. While desertification is perhaps being partly caused by global warming, these sandstorms can make global warming worse by adding to what is known as the greenhouse effect.

　　What can be done to slow down or stop the process of desertification? A great deal of work is already under way. Obviously the first step is to find new water sources. 　5　Some types of grass also hold the soil together, and stop the wind taking it. Without these efforts, it will be harder and harder to stop the world’s deserts in their tracks, and more and more farmers will give up and head for cities. The lesson to be learnt lies beneath the sand.

　　A. It generally arises from two related causes.

　　B. It is not only the farmers and villagers who suffer.

　　C. They have been completely buried by the sand now.

　　D. Scientists are doing the research on the cause of desertification.

　　E. They destroy the land, as the soil dries out and is then blown away.

　　F. Tree planting can help, by providing barriers between deserts and rich fields.

　　G. This means that the wrong crops are planted, and need more water than is available.

　　Ⅰ. 1.【解析】選D。考查demand的用法。句意: 教育部部長要求在新學年開始之際學校應該采取很多措施。考查demand后的that從句謂語動詞應該用“(should+)動詞原形”, 排除B、C兩項。根據題意measure與take之間是被動關系, 故選D項。

　　2.【解析】選D。考查形容詞辨析。句意: ——約翰, 你今天下午有空嗎? ——恐怕沒空。我約好了去看牙醫。convenient“方便的, 便利的(主語不能是人)”; suitable“合適的”; accurate“精確的”; available“有時間的, 有空的(主語是人)”。

　　A. usable

　　B. suitable

　　C. available

　　【解析】選C。考查形容詞辨析。句意: ——一張明天到北戴河的硬臥。——對不起, 先生, 現在只有硬座了。available“可獲得的”, 符合題意。usable“能用的”; suitable“合適的”; comfortable“舒適的”, 均不符合題意。

　　3.【解析】選B。in favour of“支持, 同意”; in response to“作為對……的回應”; in return for“作為對……的報答”; in honour of“為了紀念……”。根據句意應選B項, 表示“為了回應公眾的壓力”。

　　4.【解析】選B。考查時態。從上下文的時間狀語及語意可知他過去在農場工作了三年, 故用一般過去時。

　　5.【解析】選A。考查短語辨析。句意: 退休后, 他被建議從事園藝來作為一個業余愛好。A項意為: 開始從事, 占據(時間、空間); B項意為: 呈現, 雇用; C項意為: 脫下, 起飛; D項意為: 拿走。根據句意答案為A項。

　　6.【解析】選A。考查require的用法。句意: 規定中要求你不能把電子郵箱的密碼告訴別人。require后接從句時, 從句中用should do的虛擬語氣形式, should可以省略。

　　【變式備選】

　　(2024·大連模擬)All individuals are required, whoever he is, 　the laws made by their government.

　　A. to obey

　　B. obeyed

　　C. obey

　　D. obeying

　　【解析】選A。考查require的用法。句意: 每個人, 無論是誰, 都應該遵守政府制定的法律。require意為“需要, 要求”, require sb. to do sth. 意為“要求某人做某事”, 在本句中用于被動語態。whoever he is是讓步狀語從句, 插在主句中間。

　　7.【解析】選D。考查動詞辨析。supply用于supply sb. with sth. /supply sth. to sb. 中; provide用于provide sb. with sth. /provide sth. for sb. 中; offer用于offer sb. sth. /offer sth. to sb. 中; afford表示“買得起”。根據句子結構選D。

　　8.【解析】選A。考查詞語辨析。句意: ——謝謝你。在你的指導下我懂得如何去處理這個問題了。——但是你要記住: 這個規則并不能被運用到每一件事上。apply to運用到, 應用到; refer to指的是, 參考; draw to吸引到; throw to扔到。

　　9.【解析】選A。考查時態。句意: 當我們到達火車站時, 火車已經離開5分鐘了。從句的動作為過去時, 主句的動作發生在從句動作之前應用過去完成時, 從for 5 minutes可知, 此處強調狀態, 故選A。

　　10.【解析】選C。句意: 一些人想當然地認為新的總是比舊的要好。考查固定搭配take it for granted that. . . 認為……是理所當然的, 想當然地認為……。

　　【變式備選】

　　(2024·寶雞模擬)Don’t take　for granted that he will agree with you on the subject.

　　A. what

　　B. it

　　C. which

　　D. that

　　【解析】選B。考查it作形式賓語。句意: 不要想當然地認為在這個問題上他會同意你的觀點。此處it為形式賓語替代后面的that從句。

　　11.【解析】選C。考查短語辨析。句意: 近幾年敘利亞經歷了太多戰爭, 使得它的人民遭受了很多苦難。get through通過, 完成, 接通電話; look through瀏覽; go through經歷; pass through經歷, 通過。suffer受苦, 受難, 遭受。

　　12.【解析】選A。考查with的復合結構。snow和cover之間是邏輯上的主謂關系, 且表示一種狀態, 應用“with+名詞+現在分詞”結構, 因此選A。

　　【知識拓展】

　　小議“with的復合結構”

　　“with+賓語+賓語補足語”構成with的復合結構。賓語可以是名詞或是代詞, 賓語補足語可以是介詞短語、過去分詞、現在分詞、形容詞、動詞不定式、副詞。該結構在句子中作狀語, 表示原因、時間、條件、伴隨、方式等。其后接非謂語動詞作賓語補足語時, 其形式取決于動作是否發生以及賓語和賓語補足語之間的關系。例如:

　　(1)With a lot of work to do, I have no time to go out with you. (不定式表將來動作)

　　有許多工作要做, 我沒時間和你一起出去。

　　(2)We found the house easily with the little boy leading the way. (現在分詞表示主動動作, 即分詞所表示的動作是由with后的賓語發出來的)

　　由那個小男孩領路, 我們很容易地找到了那座房子。

　　(3)With all the things she needed bought, she went home happily. (過去分詞表示被動, with后面的賓語與過去分詞之間是被動關系)

　　由于需要的東西都買到了, 她高興地回家了。

　　13.【解析】選C。句意: 新的交通法規已經生效, 它肯定會對這個國家的交通產生影響。come into effect開始實施, 生效; have an effect on對……有影響, 是固定結構。

　　14.【解析】選A。根據句子的意思及主從句之間的關系, 應該是: 我們正在湖中游泳, 這時突然下起了暴雨。while不能用于此句型, until和before都不與suddenly連用。

　　15.【解析】選B。考查動詞-ing形式作伴隨狀語。句中listen和try not to miss為同時進行的動作, 故用現在分詞的一般式作伴隨狀語。又動詞不定式的否定式要在其前加not。故選B。
