()3. his right hand was hurt, he wrote slowly.

A.Because; so
B.Because; /
C.Although; but
D.Although; /

3. B

【分析】首先明确英语中连词的使用规则：表示因果关系的because（因为）和so（所以）不能同时出现在同一个句子中；表示让步关系的although（虽然）和but（但是）也不能同时使用。接下来分析句子逻辑：“他的右手受伤”是“他写得慢”的原因，属于因果关系，据此排除不符合逻辑的选项，再结合连词搭配规则确定答案。
【解析】根据英语连词的用法：because与so、although与but在句中不能同时使用，可先排除A、C选项；再分析句子逻辑，此处为因果关系，应使用因果连词，故选择B选项（because引导原因状语从句，主句前无需加so）。
【答案】B
【知识点】英语连词用法、因果连词
【点评】本题考查基础连词的搭配规则与语境逻辑判断，是初中英语的常考基础题型，需牢记连词不可重复使用的核心规则。

()4. Lily decided to do the long jump at the sports meeting she's good at it.

A.while
B.or
C.as
D.but

4. C

【分析】首先明确句子的逻辑关系：前半句“Lily decided to do the long jump at the sports meeting”是结果，后半句“she's good at it”是原因，需选择表原因的连词。接下来分析各选项的语义与用法，排除不符合逻辑的选项，确定正确答案。
【解析】A选项while意为“当……时；然而”，用于引导时间状语从句或表对比，不符合句子的因果逻辑；B选项or意为“或者；否则”，表选择或假设结果，不符合语境；C选项as意为“因为；由于”，可引导原因状语从句，表明显的原因，契合句子的因果逻辑；D选项but意为“但是”，表转折关系，不符合逻辑。因此选C。
【答案】C
【知识点】连词的用法；原因状语从句
【点评】本题考查英语连词的语义辨析，需根据句子的因果逻辑选择合适的连词，属于基础语法考点，难度适中。

D.was holding

5. C

【分析】
本题考查动词see的固定搭配用法，解题思路是：先回忆see的两类核心搭配，see sb do sth强调看见动作的全过程，see sb doing sth强调看见动作正在进行；结合语境，此处表达“我看见她正提着重袋子”，强调动作正在发生，需用doing形式。
【解析】
根据固定搭配“see sb doing sth”（看见某人正在做某事），此处需用hold的现在分词形式holding，强调当时看到的动作正在进行。A选项held为过去式、B选项to hold为不定式、D选项was holding为谓语动词形式，均不符合see的搭配规则，因此选C。
【答案】
C
【知识点】
动词固定搭配；非谓语动词
【点评】
本题为基础语法题，核心考查see的非谓语搭配，只需牢记两种搭配的语义差异即可快速解题，属于易得分题。

D.a great deal of

6. C

【分析】
本题为介词短语辨析题，解题时需先明确句子的逻辑关系，再逐一分析选项短语的含义，最后匹配句意选出正确答案。句子中“机器人在人们生活中发挥更重要作用”与“科技发展”存在因果关系，因此需选择表示原因的介词短语。
【解析】
逐一分析各选项：A选项ahead of意为“在……之前”，不符合句子逻辑；B选项instead of意为“代替”，表替代关系，不符合句意；C选项because of意为“因为、由于”，后接名词性成分，可引导原因，契合句子中“科技发展”是“机器人发挥重要作用”的原因这一逻辑；D选项a great deal of意为“大量的”，用于修饰不可数名词，不表原因，排除。因此正确答案为C。
【答案】
C
【知识点】
介词短语辨析
【点评】
本题考查常见介词短语的词义辨析，需结合语境判断逻辑关系，属于基础题型，侧重基础词汇的掌握与运用。

()7. — that's impossible, what are you going to do to pass the exam?
— I'll try my best to get a better grade.

A.Though
B.Unless
C.Since
D.Because

7. C

【分析】首先梳理句子逻辑：前半句“那是不可能的”是后半句“你打算怎么通过考试”的前提原因，需选择表原因的连词。逐一分析选项：A项though表转折，意为“虽然”；B项unless表条件，意为“除非”；C项since表“既然”，用于引出已知的、显而易见的原因，常放句首；D项because表直接原因，通常回答why的提问，不常用于句首引出原因。结合语境，此处需表“既然”的含义，故选C。
【解析】根据语境，前半句是后半句的原因，需选合适的原因连词。A选项though引导让步状语从句，不符合逻辑；B选项unless引导条件状语从句，代入后语义不通；C选项since意为“既然”，用于引出已知原因，符合句首语境；D选项because一般不放在句首引出原因，故排除。因此选C。
【答案】C
【知识点】原因状语从句连词辨析
【点评】本题考查英语连词的词义辨析，需掌握不同连词的用法及语境逻辑，属于初中英语基础考点。
【难度系数】0.6

()8. The coach thought of Mary's talent for sports, for she jumped very at
the sports meeting.

A.high; high
B.highly; high
C.high; highly
D.highly; highly

8. B

【分析】首先，本题考查副词的用法辨析及固定短语的掌握。第一步，观察第一个空，出现固定搭配think...of，该短语的正确形式是think highly of，意为“对……高度评价”，因此第一空需用highly；第二步，看第二个空，修饰动词jumped，描述实际跳跃的高度，需用表示具体高度的副词high（high作副词时侧重具体的“高”，而highly多表示抽象的“高度地”），结合选项即可得出答案。
【解析】1. 固定搭配：think highly of是固定短语，意为“高度评价”，故第一空填highly；2. 副词辨析：第二空修饰动词jumped，描述具体的跳跃高度，需用副词high（high作副词表具体高度，highly表抽象意义），因此选B选项。
【答案】B
【知识点】副词辨析；固定搭配
【点评】本题围绕易混副词high和highly的用法及固定短语展开，属于基础考点，需准确区分副词的具体与抽象含义，牢记固定搭配。
【难度系数】0.6

六、阅读理解。
主题群:科技与技术 子主题:科学发现 语篇类型:说明文 难度:★★★
For some people, music is no fun at all. About four percent of the population is with amusia. People with amusia are born without the ability to enjoy musical notes(音调). They often cannot tell the difference between two songs.
As a result, songs sound like noise to them. They compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Life can be hard for them. Their inability(无能) to enjoy music makes them different from others. It can be difficult for other people to connect with them. In fact, most people cannot understand what it feels like being tone-deaf. Just going to a restaurant or a shopping mall can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is why people with amusia prefer to stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in social loneliness. "I used to hate parties," says Margaret, a seventy-year-old woman who only recently discovered that she was tone-deaf. By studying people like Margaret, scientists are finally learning how to identify this unusual condition.
Scientists say that the brains of people with amusia are different from the brains of people who can enjoy music. The difference is complex, and it is not connected with poor hearing. People with amusia can understand other non-musical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding common speeches. Scientists compare people with amusia to people who just can't see certain colours.
People with amusia are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed(诊断). For years, Margaret felt worried about her problem with music. Now she knows that she is not alone. There is a name for her condition. That makes it easier for her to explain. "When people invite me to a concert, I just say, 'No, thanks. I'm tone-deaf,'" says Margaret. "I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy."
()1. Which of the following is true about people with amusia?
A. Their situation is well understood by musicians.
B. Listening to music is far from enjoyable for them.
C. They love places where they are likely to hear music.
D. They can easily tell the differences between two songs.
()2. According to Paragraph 3, a person with "poor hearing" is probably one who .
A. has a hearing problem
B. can hear anything non-musical
C. dislikes listening to speeches
D. has no complex hearing system
()3. In the last paragraph, Margaret hoped that .
A. she was able to meet other people with amusia
B. her problem could be easily explained
C. she was seventeen years old rather than seventy
D. her problem with music had been diagnosed earlier
()4. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The strange behaviour of people with amusia.
B. The situation and treatment of amusia.
C. Musical talent and brain conditions.
D. Some people's inability to enjoy music.

1. B 2. A 3. D 4. D

【分析】
做此类阅读理解题，需先通读全文把握核心内容（本文围绕“失歌症（amusia）”的定义、表现、大脑特征及诊断情况展开），再逐题定位原文对应信息，结合选项逐一排除错误答案：第1题定位第一段关于失歌症人群的描述；第2题定位第三段语境理解短语含义；第3题定位最后一段Margaret的表述分析其愿望；第4题梳理全文内容归纳主旨。
【解析】
1. 选项分析：A项错误，原文第二段提到“most people cannot understand what it feels like being tone-deaf”，说明多数人不理解失歌症人群；B项正确，原文第一段明确“For some people, music is no fun at all...People with amusia are born without the ability to enjoy musical notes”，即他们无法享受音乐；C项错误，原文第二段提到“people with amusia prefer to stay away from places where there is music”，说明他们远离音乐场所；D项错误，原文第一段提到“They often cannot tell the difference between two songs”，说明他们无法区分两首歌。故选B。
2. 选项分析：第三段提到“it is not connected with poor hearing”，结合语境，此处指失歌症与听力问题无关，故“poor hearing”指听力有问题，对应A项；B、C、D项均不符合语境。故选A。
3. 选项分析：最后一段Margaret说“I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy”，结合前文“For years, Margaret felt worried about her problem with music. Now she knows that she is not alone. There is a name for her condition”，可知她希望自己的音乐问题能更早被诊断，对应D项；A、B、C项均不符合原文表述。故选D。
4. 选项分析：全文围绕失歌症人群无法享受音乐的情况展开，A项“奇怪行为”未提及；B项“治疗”未涉及；C项“音乐天赋与大脑状况”仅为部分内容；D项“部分人无法享受音乐”准确概括主旨。故选D。
