17.under18.isplayed 19.typical20.Based 21.but22.or 23.The24.as 25.boring语法填空《名模大间谍》是一部搞笑影片，但是有些内容和语言不适合13岁以下的儿童。《芝加哥》是一部出类拔萃的音乐片。16.it。考查代词。此处it指代的就是Zoolander。17.under。考查介词。依据上下文，这部影片不宜推举给13岁以下的孩子看。18.isplayed。考查动词。主语character和动词play之间为被动关系，句意为“DerekZoolander由BenStiller扮演”。19.typical。考查词类转换。此处应填一个形容词修饰example。20.Based。考查非谓语动词。bebasedon意为“以……为基础”，base与Chicago是被动关系，故用过去分词短语作状语。21.but。考查连词。两个分句之间是转折关系。句意为“Chicago是一部音乐片，但是它和其它的音乐片真的不同”。22.or。考查连词。依据句意，此处应为并列关系，而此句中don’t表否定，故为or。23.The。考查冠词。此处特指电影Chicago中的演员。24.as。考查定语从句。依据such...as...，此处用as引导定语从句，并在从句中做宾语。25.boring。考查词类转换。此处用形容词作定语修饰名词moments，句意为“由于没有令人厌烦的时刻，所以你确定不会对大量的音乐感到厌倦。”完型填空。阅读下面短文，把握其大意，然后从以下题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。Youmaythinkthereisonlysandinthedesertoftheworld,__1__itisnottrue.Inthedesert,asweknow,thereisalittle__2__,butitisnot__3__formostplants.Stillwecanseesomeplants__4__inthedesert.Thereis__5__insomeplacesinthedesert.We__6__theseplacesoases.Intheoases,therearevillagesandtowns.Peoplegrow__7__kindsofcropsinthefieldsthere.People__8__liveoutsidetheoases.Theyhavecamels,sheepandotheranimals.Theseanimalsdepend__9__thedesertplantsfortheirfoodanddonotneed__10__water.The__11__areusefultothedesertpeopleinmanyways.Theyeatthemeatanddrinkthemilkoftheanimals.Theyusethecamelsforcarryingwater,food,tentsandsomethingelse.Thepeopleofthedeserthavetokeepmovingfromplacetoplace.Theymustalwayslook12grassordesertplantsfortheiranimals.Whenthereisnomorefoodfortheiranimals,theymoveto__13__place.Thedesertpeopleare__14__.Nomaninthedesertwouldeverrefuse__15__thepeopleintroubleandgivethemfoodandwater.名师点评本文叙述了人类是如何利用沙漠中的绿洲、动物，并依靠自身的努力而得以在沙漠中种植庄稼，从而生存下来。说明人定胜天的道理。(B)1.A.and
