B.Generous.C.Reliable. D.Energetic.语篇解读在大学的时候,Leavitt就对天文学产生了浓厚的兴趣,虽然那个年代存在对女性的歧视,但这并没有影响Leavitt取得非凡的成就。答案与解析1.D细节题。根据第1段最后一句“Asacollegestudent,shestudiedanumberofsubjectsandfellinlovewithastronomy.”可知,Leavitt在大学期间对天文学产生了兴趣。2.B推断题。根据第3段最后一句“Theylivedatatimewhenwomen'scontributionswereundervaluedorignored.”可以推断出,她们被人们叫作“computers”是因为在那个年代,女性的成就是被人低估或忽视的。3.A细节题。根据最后一段中的“Afterherdeath,hernamewasplacedonalunarcrater,andasteroid5383Leavittcarrieshername.”可知,Leavitt去世后人们用特别的方式纪念她。4.A推断题。通读全文可知,Leavitt热爱天文,对工作认真,虽然她生前没有得到应有的荣誉,但她还是兢兢业业工作,很有奉献精神。Ⅱ.语法填空(原创)Appleproductshavebeenusedallovertheworld.Thereisnodoubt1.SteveJobsisoneofthemostcreativepersonsacrossthewholeworld.Heisageniuswho2.(make)greatcontributionstoourcommunications.

语篇解读文章主要介绍了史蒂夫·乔布斯。答案与解析1.that分析句子结构可知,此处引导同位语从句,对名词doubt进行补充说明。从句成分和意义都完整,所以应用连接词that引导。2.hasmade/made此处为定语从句的谓语动词,句子陈述过去的事实,应用一般过去时。此处也可理解为过去的动作对现在造成的影响,用现在完成时。3.amazing此处修饰空后的名词product,表示“令人惊叹的”,应用形容词amazing。4.ashock作“令人震惊的人或事”讲时是可数名词,此处为泛指,应用不定冠词修饰,故填a。5.touse此处表示“使电脑易于使用”,应用动词不定式。use的逻辑宾语是computers,故用主动表被动,故填touse。6.it此处为“find+it+adj.+todo”结构,意为“认为做某事是……的”,it作形式宾语,真正的宾语是动词不定式。7.designed分析句子结构可知,此处为非谓语动词。design和products之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,故填designed。8.successful此处修饰名词businessman,应用形容词形式,故填successful。9.keeps分析句子结构可知,此处为定语从句的谓语动词,陈述客观事实,应用一般现在时;从句主语that指代先行词theonlything,是单数概念,谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式,故填keeps。10.differently此处修饰动词,故填副词differently。【应用练】Ⅲ.书面表达假定你是红星中学高二学生李华,你的英国朋友Jim最近在读关于成功的书,在给你的邮件中提到想要了解你心目中的成功人士。请你给Jim回信,介绍一位你所钦佩的成功人物,内容包括:1.该人物是谁;2.他/她成功的秘诀是什么;3.该人物的事迹和主要贡献;4.该人物对你的影响。注意:1.词数80左右;2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯;3.开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数。DearJim,ThesuccessfulpersoninmymindisZhangDingyu,whohasinfluencedmealot.
