6、词。 从上文内容可知农民想看看狗和兔子哪个先找到埋在地里的东西,填 which。 【小题 2】 cheerful考查形容词。 根据 and后面的 optimistic可以判断此处也应该用形容词,修饰名词 rabbit,填 cheerful。 【小题 3】 digging 考查非谓语动词。从结构可知此处是非谓语动词做方式状语,dig和句子主语 rabbit之间是主动关系,用现在分词,填 digging。 【小题 4】 lay考查动词。分析结构可知此处是做谓语,说明狗的动作,根据文章时态判断用动词过去式,填 lay。 【小题 5】 for考查介词。 从语境可知此处表示兔子挖了几个小时,时间段前用介
7、词 for表示一段时间,填 for。 【小题 6】 But考查连词。根据前面内容可知狗在抱怨,兔子却认为每挖一个洞剩下要找的洞就少一个,由此可知此处表示一种态度的不同,一种转折,所以填 But。 【小题 7】 left考查非谓语动词。分析句子成分可知此处是修饰名词 place,用过去分词,意思是 “当整块地里没有剩下要挖的地方时 .” ,填 left。 【小题 8】 where考查副词。此处是介词后面的宾语从句,从句是主谓结构,所以填连接副词,根据语境可知填 where。句意:这只兔子挖了一条隧道直通狗一直躺着的地方。 【小题 9】 the考查冠词。 名词 place是可数名词,而且后面有定语
8、限制,特指埋东西的地方,故填定冠词 the。 【小题 10】 because /since/as考查连词。从内容可知前后句子是因果关系,所以填连词 because, since或者 as。 考点:考查语法填空 完型填空 阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从 115 各题所给的 A、 B、 C和 D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将对应的该项涂黑。 When asked to point out one or two things that are most important to themselves,many put friends ahead of homes, jobs, clothes

35、even light cannot get out. The gravity is so strong because matter has been squeezed into a tiny space. This can happen when a star is dying. Because no light can get out, people cant see black holes. Space telescopes with special tools can help find black holes. The special tools can see how stars
36、that are very close to black holes act differently from other ones. Black holes can be big or small. Scientists think the smallest black holes are as small as just one atom. These black holes are very tiny but have the mass of a large mountain. Mass is the amount of matter, or “staff”, in an object.
37、 Another kind of black hole is called “stellar”(星球黑洞 ). Its mass can be up to 20 times more than the mass of the sun. There may be many stellar mass black holes in Earths galaxy.

47、 mass of a large mountain”这些黑洞可能会非常小,但是有一座山一样的质量,可知 A正确;根据倒数第二段中 “A black hole can not be seen because strong gravity pulls all of the light into the middle of the black hole.”黑洞不可见是因为强大的引力将所有的光线吸进黑洞的中间,可知 B项正确;根据最后一句“Scientists use satellites and telescopes in space to see the high-energy light.”科学
