产品D.疾病得出损失的属性是严重的、灾难性的，其余三个名词和disastrous不搭配。选A.losses44.A考察名词。根据文章句意是表示数量下降的原因。A.cause原因B.effect影响C.part部分D.problem问题选A.cause45.C考察形容词和名词的搭配。根据文章句意得出是有简单的方法来减少损失。A.silly愚蠢的B.complex复杂的C.simple简单的D.cruel残酷的。选C.simple46.B考察动词和名词的搭配。根据句意是要减少损失，选B.cut47.A考察动词及语境理解。A.trick欺骗B.talk谈话C.force强迫D.frighten使惊吓，文章中的意思是欺骗狮子：tricklionsintothinking，选A.trick48.D考察动词及语境理解。A.join加入B.continue继续C.restart重新启动D.abandon抛弃，选D.abandon49.C考察动词词组固定搭配。beinspiredby受到……激发，选C.inspired,50.D考察动词及语境理解。A.painted涂画B.carved雕刻C.discovered发现D.developed形成、发展，文章中的意思是很多的动物种类形成眼状斑点。选D.developed51.B考察形容词。形容词做题方法可结合感情色彩、所修饰的名词或者同一个名词的其他修饰来解题，该空所修饰的名词是“enemy”，可知与敌人最相关的形容词为“deadly”致命的。52.C考察名词。名词做题方法可结合名词指代和上下文，上文交代青蛙和鱼有eyespots，下文提到人类也受影响，此空引出蝴蝶，说明蝴蝶也有eyespots，因此说明青蛙、鱼、蝴蝶和人都是一个例子。53.C考察动词。此空可根据逻辑提示词“even”可知与前文形成递进关系，且有冒号进行解释说明，冒号后讲的是当自行车架附近展示警惕的眼睛时，人们偷自行车的可能性就会降低。54.D考察形容词。根据上下文语境，上文说到人们偷自行车的可能性会降低，因此此处的eye应该是“警惕的、提防的”。55.A考察动词。根据上下文语境，句子的主语是“cows”，谓语为被动，下文是动物掠食者，可知牛应该是被掠食者攻击。第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。Chinahasrecentlyannouncedtheformalestablishmentofitsfirstfivenationalparks.GiantPandaNationalPark(GPNP)isone____56____thelist.GPNPislocatedinCentralChinaspreadingacrossSichuan,NingxiaandShaanxi.Once____57____(complete),thenewnationalparkwillinclude67existingpandareserves.,ThegiantpandaisafamoussymbolofChinaandoneofthemostadorable____58____(creature)acrosstheglobe.GPNPhasapopulationofaround1,800giantpandas,____59____accountsforover80%oftheChinesegiantpandapopulation.Connectingthesereservesandestablishingprotectedareasbetween____60____willallowpandastotravelbetweenthedifferentareasand____61____(hopeful)crossbreed(杂交繁育)andstrengthenthepandapopulation.Thisisafocusedeffort____62____(help)theanimalsreproduce.The____63____(combine)ofthesepandareservesisanenthusiasticcommitmentbytheChinesegovernmenttoprotecttheseextraordinaryanimals.Thegoodnews____64____(be)thatthereisevidencethatthepopulationappearstobegrowing.TheInternationalUnionforConservationofNaturehasupgradedthespeciesfromendangeredtothreatened.____65____thisimprovementispositive,thereisstillalottheworldneedstodotohelpsecurethesurvivalofthispreciousspecies.语法填空56.on解析：考查介词，本句含义为“在名单上”，故填入on。57.completed解析：考查非谓语动词，once为翻译为“一但”的连词，根据状语从句的省略原则，故填入表被动的completed。58.creatures解析：考查名词，本句结构为oneofthe+最高级+复数名词，故填入creatures。59.which解析：考查连词，本句为逗号后、缺主语的定语从句，故填入which。,60.them解析：考查代词，本句含义为“建立在它们之间的保护区”，故填入them。61.hopefully解析：考查副词，副词修饰动词crossbreedandstrengthen，故填入hopefully。62.tohelp解析：考查非谓语动词，根据搭配efforttodo，故填入tohelp。63.combination解析：考查名词，根据then.of可知本题填写名词，故填入combination。64.is解析：考查谓语动词，主语为thegoodnews，谓语为单数的一般现在时动词，故填入is。65.Though/Although解析：考查连词，根据前后句含义和关键词still，判断此从句为让步逻辑关系，故填入Though或Although。第四部分写作(共两节，满分40分)第一节(满分15分),你所在班级正在进行“迎北京冬奥”英文手抄报评选活动。你将代表学习小组向全班展示本组作品。请你写一篇英文发言稿，须包括以下要点:1.主要栏目;2.设计亮点;3.呼吁投票。注意:1.写作词数应为80左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Goodmorning.It'smypleasuretopresentmygroup'swallpaper.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________写作第一节应用文Goodmorning.Itismypleasuretopresentmygroup’swallpaper.The“BeijingOlympicWinterGamesisaroundthecorner”,ourgroup’swallpaperiswelldesignedinbothlayoutandcontent.Inthewallpaper,variouscolumnsareavailable,rangingfromthelatestupdatesontheevent’s,preparationtothedetailedintroductionofseveralmostanticipatedgamestobeheld.Appealingasallthesecolumnsare,theonewearemostkeenonisthelegendarystoriesofathletes.Throughthesestories,notonlycanwegettoknowthembetter,butalsowewilldefinitelybeinspiredbythem.Dovoteforusifyouarefondofourwallpaper.Thanksforyourattention.(114words)第二节（满分25分）阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。Kathy'sfamilyvacationtothebeachwasusuallythehighlightofhersummer.Thisyear,however,herparentsannouncedanewrule:nophonesfortheentireweek.“Butmyfriendswillbeexpectingupdatesaboutthetrip,"Kathycomplained.Kathy'smomgaveheraseriouslook.Unwillingly,Kathyhandedherphoneoverandhermomlockeditaway.Thedrivetothebeachhousetookmostoftheday.Astheyturnedoffthehighwayontocountrybackroads,thecloudsdarkened.Rainstartedtopour."Evenmorebeautifulintherain,"hermothersaid."Whatdoyouthink,Kathy?"Kathyglaredathermom."Beautiful,"shemuttered.Thatnightafterdinner,Kathywanderedintothekitchen,whereherfatherwaswashingdishes.Shegaveherfatheralovinglookandsaidinhersweetestvoice,"Couldn’tIhavemyphoneback,justforonesecond?JustsoIcantelleveryonewhatanamazingtimeI'mhaving?”“Can't,"hesaid."It'snothere.Remember?"Kathywasveryannoyed.Havingnothingbettertodo,sheexaminedthedustybookcaseinthelivingroom.Thebookslookedasdullasthew
