此处根据短语playtrickson可知此处应该用过去分词短语作后置定语表被动。2．B 表达劝而不服用“trytopersuadesb.todosth.”。3．C meandoingsth.意味着，意思是；meantodosth.有意做某事。4．A fallfor上……当；迷恋；信以为真。5．B beintendedforsth.专为……设计/打算。8\n6．D 句意：他无论在什么地方都快乐。7．D sothat“以便于”，表示目的。句意：必须采取措施，以使这种灾难永不再发生。8．D whateverourfriendsdo为主语从句；doesmatter表强调，意为“确实要紧”。9．D ask后面的宾语从句常用含有疑问语气的词语连接，根据句意可知，应该用whether表示“是否”。10．C 根据介词for可知，本题是问“为什么”，所以选C项，what…for相当于why。11．A beawareofsth.和beawarethatclause均表示“知道，意识到”之意。12．C 根据bedeterminedtodosth.可判断此处用过去分词短语作状语。13．C 考查固定短语helpsb.withsth.，符合句意“汤姆告诉我他愿意帮我学习地理”；另外还考查主从句时态的一致性。14．B 考查get构成的短语用法。getacross“使别人明白(自己的意思)”。句意：我竭力让他明白小心自己私人信息的重要性。geton“相处”；getaway“走开；逃脱”；getthrough“经历”。15．C 考查插入语。句意：他有许多嗜好，诸如打乒乓球，唱流行歌曲，收集邮票等。suchas列举具体的事物时，需置于这些事物的前面。故本题选C项。Ⅱ.人生苦短，如何过一个有意义的人生，如何认识自己？文章将会让我们认识到人生的真谛。16．C 从上下文知，如果(if)他想这样做的话，世界都感觉像是他的一样。17．B 从上下文知，他知道他的潜能巨大，又因下段首句…havingsuchapotential中有potential的原词复现，所以用potential。18．D 从语意知，他知道他有超越以往任何国王的力量，所以用power。19．A 从句意知，他觉得他能写(write)一些书让后人震惊。20．A 从上下文知，他知道他能发明一些让后人受益无穷的东西，所以用invent。21．B 根据第一段todie提示知，他有一个问题，那就是只有一次“生命”，所以用life。22．D 所以他要做出决定，把能力用在什么地方呢，所以用apply表示“运用”。23．A 上一空前choice有提示知，这里表示“选择，抉择”。8\n24．C 根据上下文知，他要上学，毕业，找工作，结婚，然后抚养小孩子，故用raise。25．B 这里是where引导的宾语从句，表示“……的地方”，选B项。26．C 根据上文知，随着年岁的增长，他变得越来越老，故用older。27．B 根据上文asuddenchestpain提示知，当有一天他照镜子的时候，发现他变得“虚弱”了，所以用weak，选B项。28．D 根据语意知，Helookedcloselyintotheseeyes表示“仔细地看了看自己的眼睛”，所以选D项，用closely。29．A 然后他一下子领会到了(realize)一个真理。30．C 根据上下文知，他的心脏永远停止了跳动，所以用stopbeating。31．B 语意表示“他原本以为能实现的目标”，所以用achieve意为“实现”。32．C 根据语意知，这里表示“想象力”，用imagination。33．B 他只是缺少一些必要的(necessary)实现目标的东西，选B项。34．C 根据语意知，这里表示“或者”，所以用or。35．A 从上下文知，这里what引导主语从句，因为从句中缺少achieve的宾语，所以用what。Ⅲ.美国宇航局发射“好奇”号到火星，旨在对火星是否存在生命元素的假设进行研究。36．C 推理判断题。根据第一段“Theteamlaunchedahightechrobot,calledCuriosity,intospace,lastyear.OnSunday,aftermorethaneightmonthsoftravel,Curiosityreacheditsdestination:Mars.”可推断“好奇”号应该于2022年11月被发射，故选C项。37．D 推理判断题。根据文中所提到的使“好奇”号安全着陆的种种努力可推断选D项。38．B 细节理解题。根据第三段“AsthecraftnearedtheRedPlanet,agiantparachutepoppedout(弹出),helpingtoslowdownthelanding.Later,powerfulenginesfiredfromthecrafttoslowitdownsomemore.”可判断选B项。39．A 推理判断题。根据第五段“Overits98weekmission,Curiositywillsearchfortheessentialingredientsoflife”可推断选A项。8
