My parents and I had made a tour to Xian. Instead of having a travel agency arranging our transportation and acmodation, we booked the train tickets and hotel rooms on the Internet by us. During our tour in Xian, we went to many places of interests and took lots of photos, learned about the history of Xian. No tourists would miss the local food in Xian, so would we. We enjoyed the typical local food, it tasted more delicious than we had expected. Hardly had I returned than I shared the photos and experiences for my classmates. The trip to Xian has been such happy memory to me that I will never forget it. 答案與解析　 Last summer vacation was my most pleasant one. My parents and I made a tour to Xian. Instead of having a travel agency our transportation and acmodation, we booked the train tickets and hotel rooms on the Internet by During our tour in Xian, we went to many places of and took lots of photos, about the history of Xian. No tourists would miss the local food in Xian, would we. We enjoyed the typical local food, tasted more delicious than we had expected. Hardly had I returned I shared the photos and experiences my classmates. The trip to Xian has been such happy memory to me that I will never forget it. ①去掉had　考查動詞時態(tài)。短文敘述的是去年暑假的事情，應用一般過去時，故去掉had。 ②arranging→arrange　考查非謂語動詞。a travel agency與arrange是邏輯上的主謂關系，但不表示一直發(fā)生的動作，故用不含to的不定式作賓補。 ③us→ourselves　考查代詞。本句主語是we, 故表示“靠我們自己”應用by ourselves。by oneself“靠自己”。 ④interests→interest　考查名詞的數。place of interest“名勝”， 該短語的復數形式是places of interest。 ⑤learned→learning　考查非謂語動詞。we與learn是邏輯上的主謂關系，故用現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語。 ⑥so→nor/neither　考查倒裝句。后者和前者都是否定的情況時，應用nor/neither引導倒裝句。 ⑦it→which　考查定語從句。該句是定語從句，從句先行詞是the typical local food，指物，從句中缺少主語，故用關系代詞which 引導定語從句。 ⑧than→when　考查固定句式。此處是hardly...when...“一……就……”句式。 ⑨for→with　考查介詞。share sth. with sb. “和某人分享某物”。 ⑩happy前加a　考查冠詞。表“一個美好的回憶”， 應用不定冠詞a表示泛指。 閱讀七選五　(2018醴陵模擬)　體裁：說明文　話題：科普知識與現(xiàn)代技術　難度：★★☆☆☆ What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange or red? __1__ Do you prefer grays or blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist. At least this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings. __2__ If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. __3__ A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. __4__ A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides than any other bridge in the area—until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.(說明黃色、紅色、粉色和淡藍色對情緒的積極作用) __5__ It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or gray. A. On the other hand, black is depressing. B. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favourite colour as we grow up—we are born with our preference. C. The rooms are painted in different colours as you like. D. If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. E. Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active. F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colours. G. Colours do influence our moods—there is no doubt about it. 答案與解析　 【語篇解讀】　心理學家提示我們對顏色的喜好是與生俱來的，顏色可以影響我們的心情。 1．D　空前一句提出喜歡黃色等亮色系的人，空后一句說明喜歡暗色的人的性格特點，故該空應說明喜歡黃色、紅色等顏色的人的性格特點，故選項D符合語境。 2．B　空后一句說明“如果你喜歡棕色，那么你一睜開眼睛或一旦能看清東西，你的確就會喜歡棕色”可知B項“我們對某種顏色的喜好是與生俱來的”符合語境。 3．G　該段說明的是顏色對人的情緒的影響，并以泰晤士河大橋的顏色從黑色變?yōu)榫G色后自殺人數下降為例證明顏色的作用，故選項G正確。 4．A　空后說明的是黑色大橋造成的自殺人數多，故選項A“黑色讓人沮喪”符合語境。 5．E　空前一句說明“大橋如果涂成淺藍或者粉色自殺人數會更少”，空后一句說明機器涂成橙色工人會更努力地工作，故該空應說明淺色系對人的好處，故選項E“淺色系或亮色系不僅使人開心而且使人活躍”符合語境。 詞匯微存?、賑heerful adj.開心的；②optimist n．樂觀主義者
