2019-2019学年度初三二模杨浦首字母填空分析
I didn’t think I had a passion(激情). I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing but the next show.
It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life.
On that day I went with my mum to drive my sister to the gym. I was bored. Then, as my mum stopped at a red light, s on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed in rags (衣衫褴褛). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, for I had seen many like him b .
But in some ways he was d . This man was not sitting down with a sad expression. He had a radio in his hand and was dancing h to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious(珍贵)thing he had.
“ Mum, why does that man have a radio even thought he’s homeless?” I asked.
“He bought it,” she replied.
“But if he’s homeless, why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He w it on something he doesn’t need.”
“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important things. We need happiness, too.”
That man must c enough music to buy a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that happiness is the k to life.
Without it, there’s nothing to look forward to. A passion gives a person the happiness they need to keep going.
81. someone/somebody 82. before 83. different 84. happily 85. wasted 86. care 87. key
【解析】:此篇阅读首字母题材为中考常见小品文,此类阅读要求学生不仅要理解文章中的小故事而且要抓住文章的中心思想,即寓于故事当中的人生道理。
81题:考查不定代词someone/somebody做主语,本题难度不大,注意到后文It was a man dressed in rags (衣衫褴褛)即可填出,但有不少学生由于不定代词不够熟悉而导致失分。
82题:考查句意理解,注意到句子当中for引导原因状语从句,意思是因为我之前见过很多像他一样的人即可填出。
83题:考查形容词different做表语。此空需要结合上下文信息,上文已提到他caught my eye,而且后文也一直在写这个人无家可归却把钱花在买收音机上,由此可知他与众不同,及different.
84题:考查副词happily作状语修饰dance这个动作。由后文可知这个人很喜欢音乐,且故事的中心是关于快乐的真谛,所以判断是跟着音乐一起快乐起舞。
85题:考查动词waste做谓语动词,由上下文可知,故事中的主人公虽然无家可归但是却花钱买了收音机,这一行为在作者看来是把钱浪费在不必要的东西上,所以想到waste并不难,但由于这个句子的上下文都用的一般现在时而此空因为收音机已经买了,应该填过去时,即wasted.学生容易忽略时态变化。
86题:此题考查动词care做谓语动词,表示在意。根据故事可知,故事主人公在缺衣少食的情况下把钱花在了收音机上,说明他比起衣服食物更在意或更喜欢音乐。
87题:此题考查名词key做表语,表示生活的真谛。根据故事的情节及后面的介词to提醒,可以填出key.
二、专题精讲
一、不定代词解密
不定代词:即不指明代替任何特定名词或形容词的代词。
常用不定代词有:
some(something,somebody,someone)
any(anything,anybody,anyone)
no(nothing,nobody,no one)
every(everything,everybody,everyone,)
all,each,both,much,many,(a)little,(a)few
other(s),another,none,one,either, neither
不定代词大都可以代替名词和形容词,在句中作主语、宾语、表语、定语和状语。
1.作主语
Both of them are teachers.他们两人都是教师。
2.作宾语
I know nothing about this person.我对这个人一无所知。
3.作表语
All you have is nothing.你所拥有的什么都不是。
4.作定语
There is a little water in the glass.玻璃杯里有一些水。
5.作状语
I can't find my book anywhere.我在任何地方都不能找到我的
书。
如何判断空格里的单词是不定代词呢?
由于不定代词可以在句子中做很多成分,所以不定代词不像动词、形容词等有较为规律的位置出现。但是这并不妨碍我们做好首字母填空,因为不定代词是可以直接按照上下语境,语句意思来判断的,省略了判断词性这一步。其实是比其他词性更简单好填些。我们在历年中考真题中来仔细看看不定代词是不是比较容易来判断。

历年上海中考英语首字母填空动不定代词出现情况
2019年上海中考
Eight out of ten teenagers said they met friends once a week. Nine out of ten said they contacted friends through the Internet. A 86 popular way of contacting friends was the telephone. Everyone we surveyed said they spoke to friends every day. Most said they spoke about twenty minutes a day.
【讲解】通过句子成分分析,此处填入形容词比较合适,根据前句中的contacted friends through the Internet和本句contacting friends was the telephone的对比得知填入的“另一,再一”所以another比较合适。
2019年静安二模
Even though Holmes has knowledge about many subjects , such as chemistry, botany(植物学) and anatomy, he still
needs Dr Watson’s help to fight with him. We should also have s__86___ to help you, especially if you don’t know as much as Holmes.
【讲解】此段都说的是要有一个助手来帮助自己,那么助手也可以说是“某个人”,所以someone合适。
2019年黄浦二模
When I was at university, I studied very hard. But a lot of my friends did very l 81 work. Some just did enough to pass the exam. Others didn’t do quite enough. Fred Braines was such a student. He spent more time drinking in the
Tea House than working in the library.
【讲解】根据前后文对比,but一词表达出前后文意思是相反的,“作者学习努力,而他的同学学得很少”,所以答案是little,比较简单。
2009年上海中考
Week 1 This week, my family tried to save electricity. We never left the lights on when leaving the rooms. We switched off the TV when n 92 was watching it. 不定代词 nobody
【讲解】缺乏主语 ,一般就是名词就是代词,再看词义,We never left the lights on when leaving the rooms这句话
跟92空所在的这一句话岂不是一个意思?一个说是人不在家时,电脑关掉,后面再举一个例子,就是电
视也要关掉,当____在看的时候。
2019年上海中考
Don’t spend longer than thirty minutes trying to fall asleep. If you can’t get to sleep after half an hour, get up and do s 97 quiet, like reading. Only go back to bed when you feel tired. 不定代词 something
【讲解】此题凭语感可能更好做一点。但若是学生没有语感,那只能按照套路去分析一下。此题直接判断词义。
让学生注意关键词like,like意味着后面是举例子,举例子是为了干嘛?不就是为了阐释前面的意思吗?
所以reading是quiet的,但是reading只是举的一个例子,还有很多跟reading类似的quiet的事情呢,
所以那些事情可以用something来指代。
2019年上海中考
A__95__ good reason for reading books is that it is useful. 不定代词Another
【讲解】这个空还是很好判断的,因为前面说了一个reason,再说另一个时,只能用another这个不定代词了。让
学生熟悉这些代词。

三、专题过关
Zhang Xiaoyu, 13, used to turn to her notebook to see if she had any homework. Now she goes to her class's QQ group to get the answer.
The Hefei girl, t 86 with lots of students in China, is experiencing a new thing in school—using the Internet for daily class activities. Using QQ group may be one of the most popular ways.
Zhang's classmates all joined the group. "We d 87 homework and talk with each other," Zhang said. "Sometimes we complain about homework and exams."
Liu Yamei, 35, a head teacher of a Hubei middle school, feels the s 88 way. She set up a QQ group for her class. "Some students feel shy to talk to me face to face. On the Internet, they're braver", Liu said. "I know more about their r 89 thoughts."
Wang Jiayue, 14, from Nanjing also joins her class's QQ group. But she likes her class blog more because "it's i 90 ". Each class in her school has a blog. Every class member can write articles and share photos on the blog.
Wang said once after school, all the students left e 91 her. She found the classroom floor was too dirty and cleaned it herself. Then she took a picture—not of the c 92 classroom, but the junk she cleaned out.
"My classmates were surprised to see that," Wang laughed. "They said that they would never let the classroom be dirt like that again."

Amy has never forgotten her drowning (溺水) experience when she was a little girl. That year, she did not know how to swim. O 86 she went to the beach with her family and her uncle's family.
L 87 most kids, she and her sister, Helen, played with a life ring in the water. They were both holding on to the life ring. After a while, Helen swam away with the life ring, leaving Amy behind. She was so frightened that she forgot to cry for help. She used all her energy trying to keep her head up, but she was not tall enough. It was too h 88 for a four-year-old girl. Soon she drank some ocean water and started to lose energy. Then she was sinking (沉没) under the water. L 89 , her uncle noticed her and saved her just in time.
Her family and her uncle's family were so frightened and Helen felt very sorry about it. To Amy, the experience was so a 90 that she never went to the beach again. What's more, she couldn't watch a similar s 91 in a film. One day, she went to see the movie — "Titanic" with her friends. When she saw the water rushing into the ship and people being washed away to the sea, she felt very uncomfortable. It made her think of her own experience.
To get over her fear, Amy decided to learn how to swim. At first, she couldn't touch the water in the pool at
all. When she tried to s 92 in the pool, she found the water was just up to her waist (腰部). Her fear wasn't as bad as before. After a week's training, she could do it. She could enjoy the sunshine on the beach again.

Cell phones help us easily find people anywhere at any time. A cell phone can i 86
many things, such as games, music and Internet access. Today, 4.6 billion people around the world have cell phones, according to CBS News.
However, cell phones may cause cancer, according to the World Health Organization. In a 2019 study, people who used a cell phone for 10 years or more were more than two times as likely to g 87 brain cancer, according to CNN.
"I think it is a good idea to give the public some sorts of warning that long-term exposure to radiation (辐射) from your cell phone could p 88 cause cancer," told Dr Henry Lai. Lai is a research professor of bioengineering (生物工程) at the University of Washington who has studied radiation for more than 30 years.
These s 89 may help you reduce your risk of cancer:
* Headsets (耳机) give out much less radiation than phones. Some wireless headsets give out low-level radiation. However, you should take it off your ear when you're not talking to anyone. Using your phone with a speaker (%PW) will also make it s 90 .
* Your phone gives out radiation when you talk or text (发短信), but not when you're listening or receiving messages. Listening more and talking less can lower the risk of cancer.
* Hold the phone away from your body when you're talking, not a 91 your ear. Also, don't keep it in your pocket.
* Phones emit (发出 ) less radiation to send texts than to carry a person's voice. Texting also keeps radiation away from your head.
* Fewer signal bars (信号强度)on your phone mean that the phone needs to give out more radiation to work. Make and take calls when your phone has a s 92 signal.

If you think you are too shy and want to be a little bit braver, just try the following things.
Be o 86 to others. Tell people you are shy. There is no need to hide it. When they get to know you are a shy kid, they will understand you b 87 . This also helps you feel more comfortable in talks.
Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings, too; and most people will stay away from an angry-looking f 88 .
Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start a conversation, say something nice about people a 89 you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Do you have the strong desire to keep talking to that person?
Get your attention elsewhere. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. N 90 waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not. You will become r 91 and find it's not so hard to talk with others.
Take one small step at a time. Each time when you say "Hi!" or smile at someone, say to yourself "You can m 92 it." Keep trying and one day you'll no longer feel shy when you talk to others.

Something landed in my e-mail inbox this year that filled me with horror (恐怖). It wasn't a virus. It was a little dancing snowman. The friend who had sent it had written "Merry Christmas, everyone!" at the bottom.
I love the Internet. I would post on someone's micro blog to say "happy birthday". I would send an e-mail to give my c 86 to someone on his or her new job. But Christmas e-cards ? No way.
There are some things you just don't do through e-mail. I would always handwrite letters to say "thank you" to someone for having me to stay at their house, for example, or to e 87 my sadness if someone had died. Sitting down with a pile of at least 50 Christmas cards every year is part of the t 88 . It shows you can be bothered (烦恼) to actually put pen to paper, buy a stamp, and post a letter.
But cards play even more of a special role at Christmas. At home, my family has special card display frames for our Christmas cards, and we stick red and green ribbons across the doors and hang cards over them. A 89 with the tree and the candles, cards become Christmas decorations.
At the end of the holiday, my grandma and I sit together and cut away the pictures from the f___90 _of the cards to use as labels for presents next year.
Most importantly, there's the fun of r 91 the people you're writing to. Each year I'll sit down with my address book. With each "Dear so-and-so" that I write, I remember the good times I spent with that person. More often than not, I'll let them know what I've been doing this year, before ending with "We really must meet up s 92 in the near future" Will this all happen if I just select their e-mail addresses from my contacts list?

Dangers of the web
Gong Yaping, 33, a businesswoman in Beijing, was more than a little confused when she received so many phone calls and text messages from her friends one day last month. They were all talking about the same thing, "Hi, I've sent 1,000 yuan to your new account." W 86 Gong realized that her QQ password had been cracked (破译) and changed and her friends had given a lot of money to the thief, she became very angry.
Many people have had the same e 87 as Gong and her friends. Recently, the police in Changzhou, Jiangsu arrested a group of people. They cracked QQ and pfetended to be the owner's friends and relatives. Millions of people are involved and the thief group has s 88 more than 40 million yuan.
The 1 89 police explained how the thief group carried out their crime. They put viruses (病毒) on some websites. When people click these links or download something from them, the virus will infect (感染)
their computers. Then the virus will get the QQ accounts and passwords of the computer o 90 and send them to the thieves.
According to the Computer network Emergency Response Technical Team in Jiangsu, there were a total of 21,738 c 91 of such crimes in the province from January to October.
Dou Haiyang, an official from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences told People's Daily that people's property (财产) rights should also include virtual (虚拟的) property, such as QQ and online game accounts. "It's necessary to make laws or rules that specially p 92 people's virtual property," Dou said.

Steve Jobs died at the age of 56, after a very long battle with c Steve Jobs died last week at the age of 56, after a very long battle with illness. His 86 made millions of people worldwide heartbroken. He was a businessman, but he was the "Michael Jackson" of businessmen. His Apple products were like songs that t 87 people's hearts and changed their lives.
Jobs was not an inventor, but an innovator (革新者) and a man with a great wisdom. He took technology that others had invented and designed products that had great style and were e 88 for people to use. And he made Apple products seem cool! The iMac, iPod, Iphone and iPad were always the coolest products on the market.
Steve Jobs was also a good e 89 of "The American Dream." He came from a poor working family in California. He didn't have a good education. I 90 , he dropped out of college early on and started Apple in his workshop. But his success was soon followed by setbacks (挫折).
Jobs was fired as CEO of the company in 1985, but that setback did not stop him. Jobs built a
new computer company and also started Pixar (皮克斯动画工作室) which produced the h 91
movies Toy Story and Finding Nemo. Later, when Apple was in trouble, Jobs was brought back to save the company—and he did it!
Jobs is a great role model for young people. He had a dream and he did his best to a 92 that dream. He suffered setbacks in business and in his health, but he refused to let those setbacks stop him from following his dream. In the end, he left some inspirational words for young innovators: "Stay hungry, stay foolish!"

I walked into the hospital room one Sunday morning, knowing he didn't look the way he used to. He was certainly the same man i 86 , but on the outside he was just skin and bones. I told myself that this time I wasn't going to cry. Two days before, I walked out of the room with tears in my eyes and he noticed. I promised this time I was only going to 1 87 with him.
I was greeted with a big smile from both my grandparents. Grandma looked as if she hadn't slept for days.
The bed she slept in was t 88 and clean. I walked in while they were in the middle of a conversation. Grandma rose and left the room to go food shopping with my father. Before she left, she said in a low v 89 , "Please get healthy." I couldn't help but think how much I wanted the same thing. Once again before I knew it, I was crying.
Days went by and his condition didn't c 90 . I called him two or three times a week. We spoke about me and how I was doing. He would tell me how well he was feeling. I knew he was 1 91 but I went along and promised to see him soon. Our conversations would end in this way.
"I love you, darling," he'd say.
"I love you too, Grandpa," I'd say, and then we'd hang up. I would sit with the phone in my hand, wiping the tears that fell one by one. I knew it was near the end. I r 92 to accept it, though I promised myself he was going to be okay.
Then it happened: on Saturday, January 7, 1994 my mother came into my bedroom and I knew it was bad.

As we all know, there are differences between western culture and Chinese culture. We can see differences when we pay attention to the way words are used. Let's look at the words about a 86 and plants. Most expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example, "a homeless dog", "a mad dog", "a running dog" and "a dog catching a mouse", have negative (消极的) meanings. But in western countries, dogs are thought to be h 87 and good friends of humans. In English, people use the dog to describe positive (积极的) actions. For example, "you are a lucky dog" m 88 you are a lucky person. And "every dog has its day" means each person has good luck sometimes in their lifetime. To describe a person's serious i 89 , they say "sick as a dog". The word "dog-tired" means very tired. However, Chinese love cats very much. But in western culture, "cat" is often used to describe a woman who is cruel (冷酷的). "Don't let the cat out of the bag." means "Keep secret." So there are many other examples of how "cat" is used d 90 as well.
The rose is regarded as a symbol (象征) of love in b 91 China and some western countries. People think the rose stands for love, peace, courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries.
The words about plants and animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. We can learn about many differences in cultures by c 92 how some words are used.

So I was very pleased that at the end of this term, John came top of his class. All areas have improved greatly.
In his writing, his spelling and punctuation are much better. He is able to correct his own work and help correct other students. In speaking, he is much more confident. He can have English conversations with his friends and with me. He takes part in group work and he is not afraid to speak anymore. He is able to read and understand quite difficult texts much more easily. When I ask him questions in English, he smiles and can answer them quickly.
John should feel very positive about the progress he has made this term. If he continues like this, he will do very well indeed.
Sam Smith is a popular member of the class. He is also very clever. However, his results this term in English have been very disappointing. In his final written exam, he made a lot of mistakes and came last in the class. He should try and check his writing more and concentrate on his spelling.
When he is speaking, he should remember to speak more slowly and clearly. Sometimes, it is very difficult to understand what he is saying. He doesn't seem to listen carefully either. His knowledge of basic English grammar is poor. He needs to buy a good grammar book and study it every day.
I realize that Sam is the youngest member of his class. He is an intelligent student who could do well, if he tries harder.
