16、，故填especially。2left考查非谓语动词。leave out表示“遗漏；忽略”，与主语they构成逻辑上的动宾关系，所以用过去分词作表语。故填left。3illness考查词性转换。longterm为形容词，意为“长期的”，后应接名词。故填illness。4or考查连词。根据句中的whether可知应填or，whether . or . 为固定搭配，“无论还是”。5are考查主谓一致和动词的时态。本句中，who引导定语从句，先行词为the scientists，故从句谓语动词应用复数形式；全文客观地介绍一种机器人，应用一般现在时。故填are。6how考查宾语从句的连接词。设空处引导

17、宾语从句，作explains的宾语。分析句子结构可知，句中缺少状语，表“方式”，故用how连接该从句。7Using考查非谓语动词。句中已有谓语can control，因此，设空处应用非谓语动词；use与其逻辑主语he or she之间为主动关系，且非谓语动词在句中作方式状语。故填Using。8to/with考查介词。be linked to/with . 为固定搭配，“与连接”。故填to/with。9equipped考查动词的语态。be equipped with . 为固定搭配，“装配有”。故填equipped。10easier考查形容词的比较级。设空处在定语从句中作宾语补足语，而且本句暗含

18、比较意义，应用形容词的比较级。故填easier。*完形填空。阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可能填入空白处的最佳选项。Mildred Webinga Freeman was an English teacher at the new middle school I attended in the ninth grade.She wasnt my _1_；she was the adviser to the safety patrol(巡逻队)on which I _2_.I loved being around her and _3_ her sense of h

25、h grade”和空后的“she was the adviser to the safety patrol(巡逻队)”可推知，Mildred Webinga Freeman不是作者的老师(teacher)，下文中的“and became pen pals”也是提示。2A根据语境并结合选项可知，作者当时也在巡逻队里。serve“为工作”。3B根据空前的“I loved being around her”可知，作者喜欢(enjoyed)老师的幽默感和善良的品质。4D根据上文中的“an English teacher”和“the adviser”可知，本句是对这位老师身份的补充说明。她也(also)

26、是一个好的倾听者。5B根据语境可知，老师宣布(announced)了一个消息，她要搬到佛罗里达州了，作者感到很伤心。6A根据上文中的“At the end of the year, she _5_ that she was moving to Florida”和空后的“and became pen pals”可推知，作者和老师互换了地址(addresses)，成了笔友。7C根据上文中的“and became pen pals”与空后的“she treated me _8_ respect even though I was a teenager”可推知，作者与老师无话不谈，这与上文作者乐于和老

27、师相处的背景呼应。故选C。8C固定搭配：treat sb.with sth.意为“以某种态度/方式对待某人”，符合语境，故选C。9B根据空后的“she managed to find time to write letters”可推知，上下文表示转折关系。故选B。10A根据上文中的“I loved being around her and _3_ her sense of humor and kind personality”可推知，老师很幽默，总是给作者讲一些好笑的(amusing)故事。11Ctake sb./sth.seriously为固定搭配，意为“认真对待某人/某事”。老师认真对待作

28、者所关切的事情。12D根据下文中的“You are welcome anytime”可推知，老师欢迎作者随时来访，an open invitation为习语，意为“随时可以来访的邀请”，符合语境，故选D。urgent“急迫的”；ambiguous“模棱两可的”。13C根据上文中的“We exchanged _6_ and became pen pals”可推知，作者写信(wrote)告诉老师，他接受她的提议(offer)。14A参见上题解析。offer“提供，提议”。15D因为作者要去看望老师，因此老师建议作者收拾行李(packed)，随时欢迎作者的到来。16A老师对诗歌、音乐和文学创作的热爱

29、(love)激励(encouraged)着作者去努力。17B参见上题解析。18C一天，当老师正在把床单挂在晒衣绳上的时候，她抬头看(looked up)到了天空而有所感悟。while“当时”。19C参见上题解析。20A根据上文中的“You know, the sky is fuel for the soul”并结合选项可知，当时老师看了天空，此处指的应是天上的云(clouds)。*短文改错。Mistakes are unavoidable in life.

34、rom mistakes, and success is just waiting for us.难项分析：第四处：thatwhat考查宾语从句。分析该句结构可知，该句为含有宾语从句的主从复合句，what既作宾语从句的引导词，也作从句中及物动词thought的宾语，而that在宾语从句中不作成分，故将that改为what。第六处：mustcould考查情态动词。根据语境可知，该句表示“帮我弄明白怎样才能避免这些错误”，作者回顾提高英语口语的过程，是过去发生的行为，故用could do sth.。第十处：afraid前加be考查祈使句。分析句子结构可知，该句为祈使句，afraid为形容词，故afraid前加动词原形be。*
