91、omen”与“announce”之间是被动关系,再结合后面的时间状语“on December 5,2018”可知,此处表示发生在过去的动作,故用were announced。57.who/that考查定语从句。空处引导定语从句修饰前面的women,且在从句中作主语,故用who/that。58.to inspire考查非谓语动词。此处表示旨在激励其他人仿效她们。aim to do sth.为固定搭配,意为“旨在做某事”。59.truly考查副词。此处是指作者确实被她们令人钦佩的种种成就所震撼,空处修饰动词,故用副词truly。60.are reinventing考查动词时态和主谓一致。这些出色的

92、女企业家们正在彻底改造企业,突破所有挑战。结合句意和后面的“and beating”可知,此处应用现在进行时,主语businesswomen为复数,故填are reinventing。61.admiration考查名词。结合空前的show及空后的for可知,空处应为名词,故填admiration“钦佩,赞赏”。62.to考查介词。此处表示她们一年给英国经济贡献74亿英镑。contribute sth. to sth.意为“增进/添加某物到某物”,是固定搭配。63.theirs考查代词。根据语境可知,此处表示62%的男性说他们的(公司)是成功的。此处指代their companies,因此用名词

93、性物主代词theirs。64.higher考查形容词比较级。此处是比较男性企业家与女性企业家的公司利润,平均来看,女性企业家的税前利润更高。空前的even也是提示。65.an考查冠词。此处表示“一个年度的营业额”,无特指含义,应用不定冠词,且后面的annual的发音以元音音素开头,故用不定冠词an。第四部分写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节(满分15分)“推行垃圾分类,提倡低碳生活”是个全民活动,你班英语课将举行主题为“Lets Go Green Now”的一分钟英语演讲比赛。请你写一篇演讲稿,要点包括:1.倡导绿色生活的原因;2.实践途径(至少两点)。注意: 1.词数80左右(首尾已给,不计入
