Some say that madness and genius (天才) often come hand in hand. This is especially true of the Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh.
Van Gogh is famous for  小題1: amazing use of color and shape. Born in 1853, he was painting at a time when art was changing. A long time ago, artists tried to make their paintings look real like photographs.  小題2: later on, art became more about the artist’s own ideas. If you see a Van Gogh, it won’t look like the real world. It will look even  小題3: (beautiful).
Some of Van Gogh’s most famous paintings are of natural scenes and flowers, such as Sunflowers. He also painted many wonderful self-portraits (自畫像),小題4: brought him a lot of fame. Van Gogh had a great gift for painting; however, he was a 小題5: (trouble) man. At one point, he cut off  his own ear.

Actually, if Van Gogh  小題9:(die) at the age of twenty, no one would have connected him with failure or mental illness. Instead he would have been remembered by those close to him 小題10: a dutiful son .

小題1:his
小題2:But
小題3:more beautiful
小題4:which
小題5:troubled
小題6:nobody
小題7:greatly
小題8:what
小題9:had died

試題分析:本文敘述了荷蘭的著名畫家凡高擅長畫風景和花,他也畫過許多自畫像,他年輕時他是制造麻煩的人,他曾經(jīng)割過自己的耳朵,曾患過精神疾病,最后因為失敗和疾病而去世。
小題1:考查代詞。因為這里的形容詞性物主代詞與主語一致,故用his.
小題2:考查連詞。這里用but表示前后是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,故用but.
小題3:考查形容詞。這里用even 修飾形容詞在比較級,故用more beautiful.
小題4:考查非限制性定語從句。這里是非限制性定語從句,先行詞是self-portraits ,不能用that ,只能用which,它在從句中作主語。
小題5:考查形容詞。這里修飾后面在名詞所以用形容詞troubled.
小題6:考查代詞。根據(jù)上下文可知當時在人沒有人知道他,故用nobody.
小題7:考查副詞。這里用副詞來修飾動詞,故用greatly.
小題8:考查連詞。這里what引導在表語從句,它在從句中作賓語。
小題9:考查虛擬語氣。根據(jù)主句在謂語動詞可以看出是對過去在虛擬,所以從句用had died.
小題10:考查介詞。as作為某種身份。
點評:考查了高中要求掌握最基礎(chǔ)的語法知識,有連詞、非限制性定語從句、形容詞、副詞及虛擬語氣等,需要考生有扎實的基礎(chǔ)知識,牢記一些短語及單詞的用法。根據(jù)短文的大意判斷用什么單詞的什么形式來填空。

以下是一些新聞報道的信息:
[A]. Science magazine published the study about orangutans(猩猩). The scientists collected evidence from years of observations in six areas on Borneo and Sumatra. The scientists found that the animals demonstrated a total of twenty-four signs of cultural activity. Several actions were demonstrated in some orangutan groups, but not others.
[B]. The Environmental Investigation Agency and Telapak released the report. Telapak is an environmental group based in Indonesia. The Environmental Investigation Agency operates in several countries. The two groups say Indonesia controls ten percent of the world's tropical rainforests.
[C]. Richard Sandor is the chairman of the C-C-X. He praised the companies forming the group for demonstrating leadership. He said they believe that an active way to deal with global warning helps everyone. The group said its members want to reduce costs they may face from future rules on greenhouse gas emissions. Trading credits may help businesses find the most effective methods to reduce pollution. Members also hope to improve their public image on environmental issues.
[D]. Their most detailed effort involved ninety-nine kinds of birds, insects and plants in North America and Europe. They found that the territory where these plants and animals live has moved north by an average of six kilometers every ten years. In Europe, some butterflies now live as much as one hundred kilometers to the north because of changes linked to higher temperatures.
[E]. The new report says many areas experienced unusual weather in two thousand and two. Most of Asia, for example, was warmer than usual. India had unusually high temperatures in April and May. The extremely hot weather caused hundreds of deaths. There also were extremely dry conditions across India. Parts of Africa experienced unusual heavy rains. Yet other areas in Africa had unusual dry weather.
[F]. Hydrogen is the most common element in the universe. Hydrogen is a colorless gas. On Earth, it is present in large amounts in natural gas, coal, plants and water. By weight, hydrogen produces the highest energy levels of any known fuel. When burned in an engine, hydrogen releases no harmful pollution into the environment. When powering a fuel cell, the only waste is water. However, hydrogen is difficult to store. It also burns easily.
請閱讀以下與新聞信息,然后匹配與上面新聞相關(guān)的報道內(nèi)容:
1. A severe ocean storm hit South Korea in August. It set a new national record for rainfall. In central Europe, more than one hundred people died in flooding caused by heavy rainfall in September. The flooding also resulted in thousands of millions of dollars in property damage. Yet large parts of North and South America had extremely dry weather.
2. One member of the Chicago Climate Exchange is American Electric Power. It's the biggest owner of electric power producers in the United States. Company officials say they hope their company's membership will demonstrate the ability of the C-C-X to grow.
3. For example, members of some groups make a kissing noise by tightening their mouths and sucking in air. Some groups use leaves to clean themselves or protect their hands from sharp objects. The scientists found that some of the animals use sticks as tools to remove insects from holes in trees. Other orangutans use leaves to crush insects or gather water.
4. Professors Parmesan and Yohe used similar methods to examine one hundred and seventy-two kinds of wildlife. They examined the timing of events in the spring, such as the appearance of flowers and the reproduction of animals. They found that these events happened an average of two days earlier than normal every ten years.
5. They say illegal operations to remove trees are causing large areas of forest to disappear. Environmental Investigation Agency director Dave Currey says the illegal operations are completely out of control.

With healthy self-confidence you’ll take more chances and overcome obstacles faster. How do you boost your self-confidence? Here are some easy-to-try-out trips.
Speak well of yourself. We become what we think about most of the time. 小題1: If you continually tell yourself you “can’t do something”, you’re sure to create that reality for yourself, because that is how you see yourself. On the other hand, if you repeatedly say and think to yourself something like, “I am capable of creating a life I love”, soon you will begin creating a life you love.
Surround yourself with self-confident people and positive environments. It sounds a bit obvious, but if you have friends that lack confidence, you probably do too. If you’re surrounded by people who criticize others and speak poorly of themselves, get out! Remove yourself from their company.  小題2: Seek out friends who are confident and you’ll feel your confidence increasing.
 小題3: Don’t say you’re going to do something unless you really intend to do it. We’ve all met the “big talkers” – people who talk about their big plans but never do anything to make them happen. The “big talkers” lose face because no one believes they’ll do what they say they’re going to do.
Accept fear and obstacles as a natural part of life and growth. Don’t beat yourself up when you find yourself gripped(抓住) by fear and other emotions. 小題4:Be aware when these feelings are present but don’t let them stop you. Keep moving forward by telling yourself you’re much more than the obstacles you face and failures you experience.
 小題5: Once a month, take a few moments to write down all that you have done well. Acknowledge the work you do and your strengths on a regular basis. In doing so, you’ll begin seeing and appreciating all the good you do.
A.Start with small steps.
B.We become what we say about ourselves.
C.Negative environments are hard to escape.
D.Don’t judge yourself for having these feelings.
E. In fact, no company is better than bad company.
F. Take action on what you say you’re going to do.
G. Take time out to focus on all that you have done well.
