【分析】
做这类汉译英完成句子题时，首先要通读完整句子，对比中英文内容定位出空格对应的缺失语义，再结合所学的固定短语搭配，同时参考句中给出的时态标志、前后谓语的形式要求（比如情态动词后接动词原形、并列结构形式一致等），确定所填内容的正确形式，最后代入句子通读检查，确保语义通顺、语法合规。
【解析】
1. 对应中文“给这个病人动手术”，固定短语operate on sb.表示“给某人动手术”，“这个病人”是the patient，空格前need to后接动词原形，因此填operate on the patient。
2. 对应中文“和…有一次很愉快的面试”，“有一次愉快的面试”表达为have a pleasant interview，“和（慈善机构）”用介词with引出，空格前will后接动词原形，因此填have a pleasant interview with。
3. 对应中文“继续”，固定搭配carry on with sth.表示“继续做某事”，句中and并列两个由Let's引导的原形动作，和前面的enjoy形式保持一致，因此填carry on with。
4. 对应中文“生活在黑暗中”，先行词those指代复数的人们，定语从句谓语用一般现在时的原形，“生活在黑暗中”表达为live in darkness，因此填live in darkness。
5. 对应中文“负担不起”，固定搭配afford to do sth.表示“负担得起做某事”，“负担不起”用否定形式，句中时间状语at that time表示过去，用can的过去式could的否定形式couldn't，因此填couldn't afford to。
【答案】
1. operate on the patient
2. have a pleasant interview with
3. carry on with
4. live in darkness
5. couldn't afford to
【知识点】
固定短语搭配，时态辨析，主谓一致
【点评】
本题都是初中英语核心常用短语的考查，整体偏向基础，同学们解题时除了熟记短语含义，还要额外留意句中的时态标志、并列结构的动词形式统一要求，避免出现短语写对但形式出错的失分情况。

四、阅读理解 阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在每小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。
The elderly residents (住户) in care homes in London are being given hens to look after to stop them feeling lonely.
The project was dreamed up by a local charity to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people's health and happiness. It is also being used to help patients suffering dementia, a serious illness of the mind. Workers in care homes have reported a reduction in the use of medicine when hens are in use.
Among those taking part in the project is 80-year-old Ruth Xavier. She said, "I used to keep hens when I was younger and had to prepare their breakfast each morning before I went to school."
"I like the project a lot. I am down there in my wheelchair in the morning letting the hens out and down there again at night to see they've gone to bed."
"It's good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I'm enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have done something useful."
There are now 700 elderly people looking after hens in 20 care homes in the North East, and the charity has been given financial support to carry it out in the whole country.
Wendy Wilson, extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street, one of the first to work on the project, said, "Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative meetings. We are looking forward to the good points and fun the project can bring to people here."
Lynn Lewis, director of Notting Hill Pathways, said, "We are happy to be taking part in the project. It will really help connect our residents through a shared interest and creative activities."
() 1. What are people given to look after in the project?
A. Medicine.
B. Money.
C. Hens.
D. Children.
() 2. Why does the local charity start the project?
A. To provide part-time jobs for the elderly.
B. To improve the elderly people's life.
C. To raise money for medical research.
D. To create peace in care homes.
() 3. What's the correct order of the following events?
a. The residents in care homes look after hens.
b. A local charity created a project.
c. The use of medicine at some care homes reduces.
d. More care homes join the project.
A. a-b-d-c
B. b-c-a-d
C. d-c-a-b
D. b-a-c-d

1. C
2. B
3. D

【分析】
这是一篇公益主题的阅读理解题，解题时可以按照先读题干、再回原文定位对应信息的思路完成：第1题属于直接细节题，直接在文章开头找项目分配给老人照料的事物即可；第2题需要定位慈善机构发起项目的初衷，和选项逐一比对排除错误表述；第3题是事件排序题，只需要把四个事件分别在原文找到对应的出现位置，按照先后逻辑排列，就能选出正确答案，全程不需要额外主观推断，所有答案都有原文依据。
【解析】
1. 细节理解题：根据文章第一段第一句"The elderly residents (住户) in care homes in London are being given hens to look after to stop them feeling lonely."，明确说明项目里给老人照料的是母鸡。A选项药物是文中提到使用量减少的物品，不是让老人照料的；B选项资金是后续给慈善机构的扶持款项，不符合题意；D选项孩子是访客带来看母鸡的，均排除，故选C。
2. 细节理解题：根据文章第二段第一句"The project was dreamed up by a local charity to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people's health and happiness."，可知项目的目的是减少老人的孤独感，提升老人的健康和幸福感，也就是改善老人的生活。A选项给老人提供兼职工作、C选项为医学研究筹款、D选项在护理院营造和平氛围的表述在原文均无提及，排除后选B。
3. 事件排序题：梳理全文事件先后顺序：首先b事件，当地慈善机构先构思出这个项目；之后a事件，护理院的住户开始照料母鸡；接着c事件，护理院的工作人员反馈照料母鸡后药物使用量下降；最后慈善机构获得资金支持向全国推广，更多护理院加入项目也就是d事件，最终顺序为b-a-c-d，对应选项D。
【答案】
1. C 2. B 3. D
【知识点】
细节信息定位，事件顺序梳理，阅读理解
【点评】
本题属于难度偏低的社会类阅读理解，所有题目答案都可以直接在原文找到对应依据，不需要复杂的推理，主要考察学生快速从语篇中提取关键信息的能力，做题时要注意避免主观臆造文中没有的信息，将选项和原文内容逐一比对就能轻松选出正确答案。
