for the week after.I didn't understand 5 this would happen and my credit card had already been charged 6 the reservation.What's worse，the hotel had been fully booked.When we were wondering what to do，the manager came out.She was 7 (surprise)helpful.She apologized for the mistake and gave us a spare VIP room on 8 top floor.We had never stayed in such an amazing room，and we weren't charged extra. The next day，my brother and I went to the beach 9 we watched some people play volleyball.We got a little 10 (sunburn)，but the day had been so relaxing that we didn't mind.
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文，记述了我和我兄弟去Miami(迈阿密)旅游，当到达目的地后，来到六个月前订的宾馆，却意外被告知订的房间是下个星期的，且该宾馆房间已订满。

正
当不知如何办时，经理出来了，将他们安排在留出来的VIP房间，且不另外收他们的钱，真是
喜出望外的事。

1．it [在said后的宾语从句中缺主语，应填代词；指代前句中的Miami这个地方，应用it。

] 2．earlier [在句中作状语，依然用副词；不变词性，因为是较早的做的事，所以用比较级。

] 3．were told [由句意可知，是“我们被告知”，由上下文的时态可知，用一般过去时的被动
语态。

]
4．but [根据上下句意，意为“不是为那个星期订的，而是为后一个星期所订的”，为not...but...结构。

]
5．why [意为“我不知道为什么会发生这样的事”，故用why引导宾语从句。

]
6．for [charge...for...是习惯搭配。

]
7．surprisingly [因本句已有作表语的形容词helpful，所以应当用副词来修饰形容词helpful，指“令人惊讶地，意外地”，故填surprisingly。

]
8．the [特指“在顶楼”。

]
9．where [先行词是地点the beach，且在定语从句中作状语，故填where (＝on which ＝and on the beach ＝and there)。

]
10．sunburnt/sunburned [在表示“变化”的got后作表语，要用形容词；sunburn是名词，其形容词形式是burnt或burned。

Waste not!
1．however [句意：然而，在我们的生活中，没有人能完全避免浪费。

逗号，用副词，所以填however。

]

make a difference是固定用法，意思是
有影响，起作用。

It is time for sb to do sth是固定用法，意思是“是时候做某事了。

By the middle of the 21st century，if present trends continue，we __3__(use) up all the oil that drive our cars, for example.

[答案] increasing

[答案] will have used
4．[解析] 考查句型make＋it＋adj.＋for＋sb.＋to do sth.。

”none of＋复数名词/不可数名词，表示“……中没有一个。

”
[答案] none
6．[解析] 考查上下文理解和行文逻辑。

前文说“没办法”，这里说“可能的解决方案”所以用“however”表示转折。

[答案] however
7．[解析] 考查内容理解和从句。

这里应该是“在地球的资源完全枯竭之前”，所以用before。

[答案] before
8．[解析] 是个及物动词，“耗尽，用完”，这里应该用被动语态。

[答案] exhausted
9．[解析] 考虑到行文逻辑，这里表示的是结果，因此，so/therefore是最佳措辞。

[答案] so/therefore
10．[解析] 考查行文逻辑。

文章最后两句很明显是解释something is difficult这句话。

有两件事是困难的，除了Venus比地球热得多，另一难题是那里的水有限，所以这里用Besides.
[答案] Besides

forgotten 54 importance of reading. Anybody can use the Internet to look
for information, but the sources are

To open a book is alw ays beneficial! Don’t spend all your spare time on the com puter screen or cell phones.

阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。

体裁：议论文话题：历史故事时间：6分钟
The movies just wouldn't be the same without the warm buttery taste of popcorn.Amazingly，this delicious treat started its life as a corn kernel(玉米粒)—and not from just any corn.Popcorn is a type of sweet corn that was originally grown in Mexico and spread to China，India and elsewhere.It is the only kind of corn that will pop.Today，most of the world's popcorn is grown in the United States. Every popcorn kernel contains a tiny drop of water，surrounded by soft starch(淀粉)．When the popcorn is heated，the water turns into steam.This puts pressure on the surrounding hard kernel，forcing it to explode.The soft starch increases about 40 times in size as the corn kernel turns itself inside out.
In the 1500s popcorn was an important food source for the Aztec Indians of central and southern Mexico.But it wasn't only food.It was also used in ceremonies or in headdresses and necklaces.By the time the Europeans arrived in America，popcorn had spread through most of the American Indians.
Some early American settlers ate popcorn with cream and sugar for breakfast.But it wasn't until the late 1800s that popcorn became popular.The demand for popcorn increased and farmers began farming popcorn.The first mobile popping machine was invented in 1885，and popcorn was sold by street sellers much like hot dogs are sold today.
During the Great Depression of the 1930s，the popcorn business still thrived as people could still afford it.Then in the 1950s television arrived and popcorn consumption decreased.People stayed home and stopped going to the theatre.But the link between movies and popcorn had already existed.Soon people began making popcorn at home on the ter，microwave popcorn was introduced.
Today the movies have regained popularity and popcorn has once again become the favorite.
