一、完成句子1.makefulluseof2.Tobehonest3.Itseemsthat4.sharethestrategies5.encouragechildrento二、阅读理解1.B推理判断题。根据第二段中的“ButMoorewassickofmissingoutoncandies.Soshedesiredtogetroundthewarning,‘Whycan’tImakeahealthycandythat’sgoodformyteethsothatmyparentscan’tsaynotoit?’”及下文她想方设法最终制作出了叫CanCandy的糖果可知,她对父亲的警告的反应是:她试图找到一个方法,解决问题。故选B项。2.A细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Consequently,shesucceededinmakingakindofcandyonlyusingnaturalsweeteners,whichcanreduceoralbacteria.”可知,这种糖只使用天然甜味剂,可以减少口腔细菌,因此它对牙齿有利。故选A项。3.B细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Moorewantstouseheruniquetalenttohelpothersfindtheirsmiles.”可知,Moore想用她独特的才能帮助其他人找到自己的笑容。故选B项。4.C推理判断题。文章主要讲述了Moore的创业故事,她之所以能成功,是因为面对问题和困难时,她乐观地看待问题,积极地想方设法去解决问题。因此,通过她的故事让我们懂得积极的思考和行动会带来成功。故选C项。三、语法填空1.how。考查副词。句意:在很小的时候,欧德里拉·巴苏不知道如何与自然相处。根据第一段第二句可知,她会像其他孩子一样,为了好玩就爬树或破坏鸟巢。由此可知她在年纪很小的时候还不知道如何和自然相处。howtolivewithnature意为“如何与自然相处”,符合语境。故填how。2.terribly。考查副词。句意:有一次她妈妈抓住了她,她很生气,然后女孩意识到她做错了什么。修饰形容词wrong用副词形式。故填terribly。3.the。考查冠词。句意:住在乡下,她年轻时研究下雨前的蚂蚁,看太阳鸟喝蜂蜜,数萤火虫和观察植物的生长。inthecountryside在乡下,是固定短语。故填the。4.watching。考查短语。句意:住在乡下,她年轻时研究下雨前的蚂蚁,看太阳鸟喝蜂蜜,数萤火虫和观察植物的生长。spend...doingsth.花费时间做某事。
