The past participle “invited” is used in this context to express the invitation in the past.3、After the heavy rain, a rainbow appeared,_______(make) the sky look more beautiful.Answer: makingExplanation: The correct form to use here is t he present participle “making” because it describes an action that happens as a result of the main verb “appeared.” It is not necessary to use “to make” because that would imply a future action or intention, whereas “making” shows an immediate consequence of the rainbow’s appearance.4、She insisted that she_______(be) right, even though everyone else disagreed.Answer: wasExplanation: In this sentence, “insisted” is used with a clause that states something believed to be true at the time of speaking, so we use the past tense “was” rather than “is.” Even though “insist” can sometimes be followed by “should” + infinitive (e.g., “She insisted that she should be right”), in this context, it is more natural to use “was” to convey her belief in thepast.5、I didn’t realize she was a famous actress until she__________(take) off her sunglasses.•Answer: took•Explanation: The sentence requires the past tense because it’s talking about an action that happened in the past. The subject “she” is singular, so we use “took,” which is the past tense of “to take.”6、If I__________(be) you, I would not miss this opportunity.•Answer: were•Explanation: This sentence is a type of conditional, specifically a second conditional, which talks about hypothetical situations. In such sentences, we use “were” for all subjects when referring to the present or future in the if-clause, even if the subject is “I.” The main clause then uses “would” plus a base form of the verb.7.In the 7 morning of October, we had a special class about environmental protection.答案:7th解析:此处需要用序数词来表示“十月的第一天早晨”。

She was named after the city of Florence in Italy. Her family was 21 and they had two houses in Britain as well as many servants.Florence was an 22 young woman during her time. She was different from other women. Wealthy women like Florence weren’t expected to work—their job was to marry and 23 the family. But Florence wanted to be a nurse and help people. Her family didn’t allow her to do that 24 they thought hospitals were dirty places. They 25 her health. In 1851, Florence went to Germany and learned about nursing. It was hard work, but she loved it.In 1854, lots of British soldiers fought in the Crimean War. Army hospitals were filled with injured soldiers, but there were 26 nurses. For this reason, many soldiers 27 . Florence and a team of nurses volunteered to help them.Florence worked 20 hours a day to take care of the injured soldiers and clean the army hospital. At night, Florence walked around the hospital. She talked to the injured soldiers and helped them 28 to write letters to their families. She always carried a 29 and the soldiers called her “The Lady with the Lamp”.When Florence returned to England, people called her a heroine(女英雄)because of her amazing work in the Crimean War.

Finding the courage to let go can build up your confidence and free up time to spend on something that makes you happy instead.Nothing is fun all of the time. Learning to let go when things aren’t right is important. Maybe your heart isn’t in playing the piano anymore. Or you only play football. Making the decision to walk away could free up time and energy to spend on something you really enjoy. In fact, studies show that letting go of goals you can’t reach, or don’t really want, can help you lead a happier, healthier life.Unless you have a clear reason, it can be difficult to know when to walk away from a sport or hobby. Eric Bean is an expert in sports psychology. He always helps athletes(运动员) understand their feelings. He says, “Quitting is never really a black and white issue (问题),” and suggests thinking carefully about why you aren’t enjoying something anymore. Is it because you’ve fallen out with a teammate or can’t get on with a new art teacher? Talking about this with a trusted adult or friend can help you decide when to push through a challenging time and move on.Taking a different direction doesn’t have to mean giving up your dream altogether. If you do decide to give up an activity, Bean suggests picking up another where you can still enjoy things like teamwork, creativity and regular exercise.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
