The boat arrived at a small town, Legree and his slaves (奴隶) got off. Tom and the other men walked all the way to the plantation (种植园).

Late in the evening the other slaves came back from the plantation, tired, hungry and dirty. They didn’t even look at the new ones. They had to wait in line for their turn to cook a very poor meal. Then they all went to sleep on the floor in the cabins.

Young Chinese used to go shopping and go to the movies in their spare time. But now more and more of them get interested in a new way of having fun. They enjoy playing a puzzle-solving game(解谜游戏) known as “an escape room(密室逃脱)”.
In an escape room, a team of players work together to find useful information, work out puzzles and finish tasks to get out of a closed space. In such a game, different modern technologies(技术), like virtual reality(虚拟现实) and 5G, are used to create a fantastic world. Live actors(现场演员) also communicate with players to make the experience more real. With all of these, players will throw themselves into a story and pay their attention to their final goal(目标)—getting out of the room in a race against the clock.
Pu Yixing is an avid player of this game. Every time he arrives in a new city, the young man will play the game there. He sees the game as a new way of socializing(社交).“People spend two hours finding an untold story and trying to run away from a room. It’s a great experience for every player to enjoy,”Pu said.
He Shu, the director of a popular escape room program, says this game needs teamwork, speed, problem-solving skills, creativity and patience(创造力和耐心) of players. “It gives players a strong sense of achievement(成就) when they complete tasks and breakout of a room. It needs their reasoning(推理) skills and good teamwork,” she said.“It’s a good ice-breaking tool to make new friends as well as grow closer to old ones.”
So why is this puzzle-solving game so popular According to a study, the younger generation(一代) is spending more money on experiences than on products(产品). The escape room game provides them with excellent experiences. The other reason is just a FOMO(fear of missing out) effect. If you see someone go to a very cool place, you will probably go to ask, “Where is it I want to go there as well.”
27．What is the second paragraph mainly about
A．What the escape room game is like.
B．How to play the escape room game.

B．All my friends say my new dress is pretty. I’m so happy.
C．The basketball game starts at eight. I mustn’t be late for it.
D．Many of my classmates have mobile phones. I want to have one, too.

1．B
【详解】句意：——自从上次我们见面已经是很长一段时间了。现在过的怎么样？——嗯，我现在生活幸福。
考查连词辨析。when当……时；since自从；after在……之后；while在……期间。此处考查句型it is +一段时间+since+一般过去时，表示“自从……是一段……的时间了”，故应用since。故选B。
2．C
【详解】句意：——我从来没有想过她会拒绝我去剧院的邀请。——总有一天她会为错过演出而感到遗憾的。
考查动词辨析。return归还；review复习；refuse拒绝；recommend推荐。结合句意，错过演出是因为“拒绝”了对方的邀请。故选C。
3．C
【详解】句意：——我两周前买了这本字典。——你是说你只买了半个月。
考查现在完成时。根据题干中“for only half a month”可知答句用现在完成时，且谓语动词要用延续性动词；再由“I bought this dictionary two weeks ago.”可知此处要用buy的延续性动词have表示“拥有”；现在完成时的结构是have done，have的过去分词是had。故选C。
4．A
【详解】句意：父亲把梯子靠在树上给我摘苹果。
考查介词辨析。against倚靠；on在……上；above位于上方；opposite在……对面。根据“put the ladder (梯子)…the tree”可知是把梯子靠在树上，故选A。
5．D
【详解】句意：布朗夫人不习惯乘船旅行并且她过去晕船严重。
考查非谓语动词。be used to doing习惯于做某事；used to do过去常常做某事。根据“Mrs. Black isn’t used to…by sea”可知是不习惯乘船旅行，应用traveling；根据“she used to…sick a lot.”可知是过去晕船，应用feel，故选D。

经去了某处，但是到目前为止还没有回来；has been in 待在某地。结合“will they come back”可知表示去了某地用have/has gone to，主语“my father”为第三人称单数，用has；结合“will they come back”可知是询问多久之后，用how soon提问，故选B。
7．D
【详解】句意：——我必须一到学校就交作业吗？——不，你不必。你可以再保留一天，看看是否有错误。
考查动词辨析。can’t不能；mustn’t禁止；needn’t不必；don’t have to不必；keep保留；hand in上交。根据题干可知，含情态动词must的一般疑问句，否定回答用don’t have to或者needn’t；再根据“No”可知作业可以再保留一天。故选D。
8．D
【详解】句意：不要试图同时做所有的事情。一次做一点。
考查介词短语。at that time在那时；all the time一直；at times偶尔；at a time一次。根据“Don’t try to do everything at once.”可知，不要同时做所有的事情，所以是一次一点。选项D符合题意。故选D。

40．句意：然而，科学家们不确定狗是否明白主人的意思。根据“Most dog owners believe their

50．has been dead since I went abroad
【详解】die“死，去世”，是动词，结合中英文对照可知，此处应用现在完成时，且动词要用延续性动词，die的延续性动词是be dead，主语是单数名词，助动词用has，since“自从”，后接一般过去时的从句，go abroad“出国”，故填has been dead since I went abroad。
51．to get used to chatting with students
【详解】根据中英文对照可知，句中缺少“不得不习惯……”，其英文表达为have to get used
to doing sth.“不得不习惯于做某事”，此句还缺少了“和学生们在线交流”，其英文表达为“chat with students”，此时动词chat应用动名词形式chatting。故填to get used to chatting with students。
52．give me some advice on how to deal with/give me some suggestions on how to deal with
【详解】根据中英文对照可知，此句“Can you...the rubbish ”可用give me some advice/suggestions on...“就某方面给我一些建议”，句中还缺少”如何处理（这些垃圾）”，其英文表达为how to deal with，句首是情态动词can，动词give用原形。故填give me some advice/suggestions on how to deal with。

【详解】not…until…“直到……才……”，引导时间状语从句；manage to do“设法做成”，pull one hand free“挣脱了一只手”；be tired out“筋疲力尽”。根据汉语提示，时态用一般过去时。故填didn’t manage to pull one hand free；until he was tired out。
55．dangerous it is to continue driving at a high speed
