五、词汇运用(本题有15小题,每小题1分,共计15分)
A. 用方框中所给词语的适当形式填空,每词仅用一次。
suggestion even though curious doubt surprisingly
Last week, my teacher asked us to do a science project about plants. I was 51 about how sunlight affects plant growth, but I had no idea where to start. My friend Tom gave me a great 52 : grow two pots of beans, one in the sun and one in the dark.
53, the bean in the dark grew taller at first. I began to 54 if my project was wrong. But Tom told me not to worry—55 it looked taller, it was pale and weak without sunlight. Later, the bean in the sun turned green and grew stronger, which proved his idea was right.

51.curious 52.suggestion 53.Surprisingly 54.doubt 55.even though

【分析】
本题为词汇运用题，需结合语境、词性、固定搭配及句子结构，从方框内选词并调整适当形式填空。首先通读全文理解大意：作者做植物科学项目，对阳光影响植物生长好奇，朋友建议种两盆豆子（一盆向阳、一盆黑暗），结果黑暗中的豆子先长高，作者怀疑项目出错，后来发现向阳的豆子更健康。逐个分析空格：51空需形容词构成固定搭配；52空需名词；53空需副词修饰句子且句首大写；54空需动词原形；55空需连词引导让步状语从句。
【解析】
51. 考查固定搭配。be curious about是固定短语，意为“对……好奇”，结合语境“我对阳光如何影响植物生长感到好奇”，故填curious。
52. 考查名词。空前有不定冠词a和形容词great，此处需名词，结合语境“朋友给了我一个好建议”，方框内suggestion（建议）符合，故填suggestion。
53. 考查副词。此处需副词作状语修饰整个句子，且位于句首，结合语境“令人惊讶的是，黑暗中的豆子先长高”，方框内surprisingly（令人惊讶地）符合，句首首字母大写，故填Surprisingly。
54. 考查动词。begin to后接动词原形，结合语境“我开始怀疑我的项目出错了”，方框内doubt（怀疑）符合，故填doubt。
55. 考查连词。此处需连词引导让步状语从句，结合语境“虽然它看起来更高，但没有阳光它苍白又虚弱”，方框内even though（虽然，即使）符合，故填even though。

At first, I wasn't sure 58 (是否) I should join. But when I saw my classmate Lily, who has a 59 (天赋) for singing, perform a song to raise money, I made up my mind. I decided to 60 (捐赠) my old storybooks—they were my favourites, but I knew they would be more useful to other kids.
On the day of the event, we 61 (收到) many donations from teachers and parents. To our surprise, even the 62 (最差的) weather that week didn't stop people from coming. My parents said they were 63 (自豪的) of me for making such a kind 64 (决定).
After the event, our teacher reminded us never to use 65 (不合适的) ways to help others—kindness should always go with care. This experience made me understand that small acts can bring big changes.
