  必修三

  Module 3

  Ⅰ.语法填空,单句训练

  1.The boss wanted an assistant with ________ knowledge of French and ________ work experience.

  答案:a;不填 knowledge指具有对某一具体事物或具体学科的知识时,应与不定冠词连用,a knowledge of意为“具有……的知识”,所以第一个空应选a;根据句意判断第二个空后面的work experience意为“工作经验”,experience不可数,所以不填。

  2.(2024·厦门高三月考改编)The flood this summer caused serious ________ to the crops in Northeast China.

  答案:damage damage表示“损失”,符合句意。

  3.(2024·济南历城五中高三检测改编)She rushed out, ________(leave) the book ________(lie) open on the table and disappeared in the distance.

  答案:leaving; lying 该句用到了“leave+宾语+补语”结构,表示“使某人或某物处于某种状态”。第一个空应用leaving表示结果;book与lie之间为主动关系,所以第二个空应用lying open作补语。

  4.(2024·天津河西区质量调查改编)Don't you think it is high time you ________(bury) yourself in your books?

  答案:buried 句意:你不认为该专心读书了吗?bury oneself in“埋头于,专心于”;It is (high) time sb. did sth.“到了某人该做某事的时候了”。

  答案:occurred it occurred to sb. that...意为“某人突然想到……”。

  6.You'd better stop complaining again and again. Otherwise, you'll ________ quarreling with Rose again.

  答案:end 根据stop complaining和otherwise这个转折词可知“最终会吵起来”。end up意为“最终”,符合句意。

  7.(2024·沈阳高三一模改编)If you keep driving so fast, you'll end________ in hospital sooner or later.

  答案:up 句意:如果你开车老是这么快的话,你迟早会进医院的。end up“终究,总归,结束,结局”,符合句意。

  .阅读理解

  The light from the campfire brightened the darkness, but it could not prevent the damp cold of Dennis's Swamp(沼泽地) creeping into their bones. It was a strange place. Martin and Tom wished that they had not accepted Jack's dare. They liked camping, but not near this swamp.

  “So,” Martin asked as they sat watching the hot coals. “How did this place get its name?”

  “Are you sure you want to hear it? It's a scary story,” warned Jack.

  “Of course!” cried out Tom. “If there were anything to be scared of, you wouldn't have chosen this place!”

  “Ok,but don't say I didn't warn you,” said Jack, and he began his tale.

  “Way back in time, a man called Dennis tried to start a farm here. He built that cottage over there to live in. In those days, the area looked quite different—it was covered with tall trees and the swamp was a crystal­clear river. After three hard years, Dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops. He was so proud of his success that he refused to listen to advice.”

  “‘Your are clearing too much land,’ warned one old man.‘The land is a living thing. It will hit back at you if you abuse it.’”

  “‘Silly fool,’ said Dennis to himself. ‘If I clear more land, I can grow more crops. I'll become wealthier. He's just jealous!’”

  “Dennis continued to chop down trees. Small animals that relied on them for food and shelter were destroyed. He was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door. He did not notice salt seeping to the surface of the land. He did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.”

  “What happened?” Martin asked. It was growing colder. He trembled,twisting his body closer to the fire.

  “The land hit back—just as the old man warned,” Jack shrugged. “Dennis disappeared. Old folks around here believe that swamp plants moved up from the river and dragged him underwater. His body was never found.”

  “What a stupid story,” laughed Tom. “Plants can't...”Before he had finished speaking, he screamed and fainted (晕倒). The other two boys jumped up with fright staring at Tom.Suddenly, they burst out laughing. Some green swamp ivy(常春藤) had covered Tom's face. It was a while before Tom could appreciate the joke.

  语篇解读:丹尼斯为了开扩农场,而疯狂砍伐树木,最后这个地方变成了一片沼泽,丹尼斯也葬身沼泽。因此,丹尼斯沼泽也由此而来。

  1.The underlined word “dare” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ________.

  A.courage B.assistance

  C.instruction

  D.challenge

  答案:D 词义推测题。根据第一段的语境,孩子们宿营的地方是一个很诡异的地方,因此他们后悔接受杰克的大胆建议,D项与语境最吻合。

  2.Why did Jack tell Tom and Martin the story?

  A.To frighten them.

  B.To satisfy their curiosity.

  C.To warn them of the danger of the place.

  D.To persuade them to camp in the swamp.

  答案:B 推理判断题。从文章第二段Martin的话“How did this place get its name?”可知,他们出于好奇想听杰克讲这个故事。

  3.Why did Dennis ignore the warning of the old man?

  A.The old man envied him.

  B.The old man was foolish.

  C.He was too busy to listen to others.

  D.He was greedy for more crops.

  答案:D 推理判断题。从文章第六段第四句“After three hard years,Dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops.”可知,丹尼斯为了收获更多的庄稼而不惜破坏环境。

  4.What lesson can we learn from the story of Dennis?

  A.Grasp all, lose all.

  B.No sweat,no sweet.

  C.It is no use crying over spilt milk.

  D.He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.

  答案:A 推理判断题。分析全文可知,文章通过丹尼斯开荒种田的故事告诫我们:贪婪会让我们付出代价,由此A项“抓住一切,会失去一切”最能传达作者的写作意图。
