本文介紹了披薩的歷史。

此空為形容詞作定語修飾名詞，根據(jù)音標(biāo)可知，long表示“長(zhǎng)的”。故填long。

【2】句意：古希臘人首次想到把蔬菜放到面包片上的主意……

vegetable名詞蔬菜，此處表示多種種類的蔬菜，用復(fù)數(shù)形式。故填vegetables。

【3】句意：但是幾個(gè)世紀(jì)以來，一個(gè)重要的配料消失了——第一個(gè)西紅柿直到十六世紀(jì)才從南美到歐洲。

not…until固定短語，表示“直到……才”。故填until。

【5】句意：1889年意大利的國(guó)王和王后要求他做一個(gè)用于觀賞的特殊披薩。

a后接可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)，visit有名詞詞性，表示“參觀”。故填visit。

【6】句意：因此第一個(gè)披薩Margarita被創(chuàng)造出來了，它以皇后的名字命名。

主語the first pizza Margarita與create之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，因此用被動(dòng)語態(tài)。create的過去分詞為created。故填created。

【7】句意：在意大利披薩成為最受歡迎的菜肴，但是披薩真正成為國(guó)際性的菜肴是在二戰(zhàn)以后，當(dāng)成千上萬的美國(guó)士兵從歐洲回家時(shí)。

thousand千，前面有具體數(shù)字，用單數(shù)形式，沒有具體數(shù)字，表示概數(shù)，用復(fù)數(shù)形式，且后加of。故填of。

【10】句意：世界上最大的披薩是在古巴制作的，而不是意大利！

【題目】 Some people may be good at talking. They always have successful conversations with others. But some don't because they are shy. In fact, everyone is a little shy. This article may help you overcome your shyness.

Put yourself out there. This seems clear—the best way to meet people is to actively look for places out where you can meet people! Go to the dance party at your school or the Christmas get-together. Try to meet at least one person by the end of the night.

Practice talking. Even though this may sound strange. Stand in front of a mirror or close your eyes, and then imagine yourself talking to someone. This way is very helpful.

Show your talents. Making new friends is a great way to overcome shyness. Ask your friends to introduce you to their friends. Although that may sound useless, it really isn't. For example, if you like art, you can consider painting something for a party. It will be easier to make you feel comfortable. On the other hand don't be afraid to discover some new interests.

Change your shy look. Take a moment to look at yourself. Are you the kind of person who wears dark clothes? This makes you very unapproachable. You should wear brighter clothes. Go from wearing black, brown, and blue to wearing green, yellow and orange. Remember, you don't always have to change your look. You can just simply make your expression friendlier. Let people know that it's OK to talk with you.

根據(jù)材料內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案

【1】Why can't people have successful conversation?

【題目】 Every year, there are many people going home by long-distance buses during the Spring Festival and the Tomb-sweeping Day . There are more walkers on their way home or to work on the roads. So there are more and more traffic accidents on the roads. Thanks to the efforts of the traffic police, it is said that this year the number of traffic accidents across China was 25.2 percent fewer than the year of 2018 during the three-day Tomb-sweeping Day.

Tomb-sweeping Day, also known as Qingming Festival. It is an important occasion for Chinese to honor their ancestors（祖先）. Most people go home in memory of（紀(jì)念）their ancestors on that day. About 9.78 million Chinese visited cemeteries to honor their ancestors or relatives during the holiday. A few people also spent the three-day holiday on leisure trains. So transportation safety is a big problem. On the other hand, it is said that Chinese have made 112 million trips during the holiday, up 10.9 percent from last year’s holiday. For the traffic accidents, some people lost their lives. This year, traffic accidents caused 10 deaths during the three-day Tomb-sweeping Day. The fewer traffic accidents are all from the efforts of the police and our government. With the development of society and the government’s efforts, I believe everything will change better.

【1】Why are there more traffic accidents during the holidays?

B.Because people want to honor their ancestors.

【題目】 Thomas Edison was a great American inventor. When he was 7 years old, his mother had an appendectomy(闌尾手術(shù)). But it was too dark. So Edison put mirrors near oil lamps to light up the room.

The story is in a Chinese textbook for primary school students by People’s Education Press. But the publisher recently said it will remove(去除) the story. That’s because many people think it’s not true. Many believe that the world’s first appendectomy was in 1886. But when Edison’s mother had the so-called appendectomy, it was 1854.

The publisher also said it will avoid using some other fake(假的) stories. For example, there’s a story about the first US President George Washington. The story says young Washington cut down a cherry tree in the yard of his house. But in fact, there was no cherry tree in the area at that time.

So what’s the problem? Experts say that some editors care too much about the educational meaning of a story and fail to check first if the story is true.

The publisher says, in the future, they will pay greater attention to the truth of the stories in the textbook. “We will invite experts to check our stories,” it said in a statement.

【1】The information about Tomas Edison is true EXCEPT ________.

A.He was from America.B.He was great.

C.He was a president.D.He was an inventor.

【2】Tomas Edison born in ________.

A.1861B.1847C.1886D.1854

【3】Why will publisher remove these two stories?

A.Because they are not interesting.

B.Because they happened a long time ago.

C.Because they are true.

D.Because they are not true.

【4】Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

A.People didn’t have appendectomy until 1886.

B.Thomas Edison was very smart when he was 7.

C.Young Washington couldn’t cut down a cherry tree in his yard.

D.Thomas Edison didn’t put up mirrors near oil lamps to light up the room.

【5】What is the main idea of the story?

A.Expert will be invited to check the stories before they are put into use.

B.Some editors care about the educational meaning as well as the truth of the stories.

C.Even educational stories will be cut off Chinese textbooks if they fail to be true.

D.Students should learn from the great men’s stories because they have educational meaning.

【題目】Dear Madam,

Welcome back to school. My child is so happy to be in your class this year. We know you care so much about your students. I want to tell you a little bit about my child. Although he really loves to learn, he is somewhat anxious about being back in school again.

My child is thought to be gifted and that has brought some unexpected challenges to him and our family. To many people, being gifted means he will do very well in school, but that hasn’t always been true for him. He is just a kid thinking differently, and he sometimes struggles in school. Last year, school wasn’t easy for him for a few reasons.

He may be ahead a few grade levels in some subjects, but not in all subjects. He just doesn’t do better in all areas all the time. And although he may seem older than his years, he doesn’t always behave like you would think he should. I’m sure you know how gifted children can be emotionally immature –that is exactly my kid.

Also, he can be really intense in class when you are teaching one of his favorite topics. He may raise his hand often and constantly talk about what he thinks about it. I’ll apologize in advance because he will also likely challenge you on information or facts which he feels are not quite right especially when it’s a topic he is hooked on. He is not being impolite and he isn’t just being a know-it-all, or a show-off, he is really just very excited to be learning about a subject he feels strong about. He just gets carried away!

Last year, he was teased about looking like a know-it-all in school by some of his classmates, which hurts him A LOT. Being laughed at is part of his fear of going back to school. He fears being called a show-off at school and he feels like he doesn’t fit in. His teacher said he often kept to himself and chose to work alone. I know as a teacher, you are incredibly busy, but could you keep an eye out for anyone teasing him or if he seems to be keeping to himself too much?

Lastly, his therapist（理療師） mentioned that because of the being laughed at and maybe because he was bored last

year in school, he is showing signs of becoming an underachiever. Please let me know if his grades start slipping.

Thank you for taking the time to read and understand about my child. Don’t hesitate to call or email me if there are any problems with him at school. Believe me, we know very well how sensitive, emotional and intense he can be.

I hope you have a wonderful school year!

Sincerely,

Mom of a Gifted Child
