A

Inventions That Changed the World

The medieval era was not short of groundbreaking ideas. As we'll explore here important scientific leaps and popular new products were invented in this era, some of which remain important to this day.

The Printing Press

Date 11 th—15th Century

Use: Publishing

Well before Johannes Gutenberg brought the idea of mass production of printed text to Europe with his Gutenberg Bible, the moveable type printing press was already in use in China. Before this, in Asia as in Europe, books were handwritten to be copied. In 1440 Gutenberg applied similar technology to mass produce books for the general public. Freeing up access to knowledge in a cheap and efficient way was a game changer.

Coffee

Date: 15tlh Century

Use: Drink

The exact timing and origin of coffee bean cultivation is greatly disputed, but we can say with some confidence that by the 15th century coffee beans were being grown and roasted for the production of coffee in the Yemeni region of Arabia. From there it would spread to Egypt and eventually to Europe. First though it took root in the Near East where the stimulating drink became a popular alternative to alcohol. The secondary offshoot of coffee drinking became the spread of coffeehouses where men would meet to play games like chess as well as discuss politics, smoke and listen to music.

Gunpowder

Date: 10th Century

Use: Entertainment, Firearms

The black powder was an incredibly important milestone for humanity. This relatively simple explosive mixture might be best known for its use in weapons and fireworks, but it also offered new means of mining for resources, which was a massive time — and energy-saving innovation. The formula originates in China where the mixture was first used for setting fires. The impact of this technology on the world of weaponry is well known to us now.

1. What does the Printing Press and Gunpowder have in common?

A. They have similar uses. B. They were related to China.

C. They appeared at the same period. D. They were time-saving innovations.

2. What was the impact of the Printing Press according to the passage?

A. It produced books in Europe. B. It freed up lots of human labor.

C. It changed the game of printing. D. It made knowledge accessible affordably.

3. What did people in the Near East think of coffee?

A. Another choice to alcohol. B. Means of mining for resources.

C. A place to meet and play games. D. Important milestones for humanity.

【答案】1. B    2. D    3. A

【解析】

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了三种改变世界的发明,介绍其起源、用途等信息。

【1题详解】

细节理解题。根据The Printing Press部分中“Well before Johannes Gutenberg brought the idea of mass production of printed text to Europe with his Gutenberg Bible, the moveable type printing press was already in use in China.( 早在Johannes Gutenberg用他的《古登堡圣经》把大规模印刷文本的想法带到欧洲之前,活字印刷术就已经在中国使用了)”以及最后一段中“The formula originates in China where the mixture was first used for setting fires.(这种配方起源于中国,当时这种混合物首次被用来生火)”可知,印刷术和火药的共同之处在于他们与中国有关。故选B。

【2题详解】

细节理解题。根据The Printing Press部分中“In 1440 Gutenberg applied similar technology to mass produce books for the general public. Freeing up access to knowledge in a cheap and efficient way was a game changer.( 1440年,古腾堡应用了类似的技术,为大众大量生产书籍。以一种廉价和高效的方式释放对知识的获取,这改变了游戏规则)”可知,印刷术的影响是使人们可以负担得起知识。故选D。

【3题详解】

细节理解题。根据Coffee部分中“First though it took root in the Near East where the stimulating drink became a popular alternative to alcohol.(首先,咖啡在近东地区生根发芽,在那里,刺激饮料成为了酒精的流行替代品)”可知,近东的人们认为咖啡是酒精之外的另一个选择。故选A。

B

The parenting styles of parents in the United States are often criticized. One type of parenting that is criticized is a helicopter parent. This kind of parents hover over their children like helicopters, which means these parents are always on top of their children.

While being an aware and involved parent is not a bad thing, helicopter parents take it to the extreme. The actions of helicopter parents actually hurt children, by not teaching them to be responsible for their actions. For example, a helicopter parent would call their adult college-age child to wake them up to go to class, when part of college is learning to be responsible and learning to manage your own time. Helicopter parents arc also overly worried about their kids getting hurt. This means helicopter parents hold back their child's natural curiosity. Part of growing up means your kid has to get hurt, physically and emotionally. This is how lessons arc learned. Instead, the kids of helicopter parents can grow up to be overly needy, dependent adults. Some people blame the rise of helicopter parenting on the rise of cell phones. Mobile phones make it easier for parents to track their kids all the time.

The opposite of the helicopter mom is the free-range mom. The free-range mom follows a slow parenting style, meaning she lets her kids explore the world at their own pace with little direction. The name free-range comes from the idea that kids should have the freedom to explore their world or range in a way that makes sense to them. This often means that free-range moms will not schedule activities like extra classes or play dates for their kids. Instead a free-range mom will just let her child play in a park. There is less of an emphasis on things like the latest toys.

4. Which word can best describe a helicopter parent?

A. Dependent. B. Overprotective. C. Demanding. D. Involved.

5. Why may the actions of helicopter parents hurt their children?

A. Their children may not be responsible for their actions.

B. Their children will explore the world with little direction.

C. Growing up means getting hurt physically and emotionally.

D. Their children cannot get up on time for their college class.

6. What partially caused helicopter parents to emerge?

A. The ability to track people. B. The need to look after ones' kids.

C. The rise of mobile phones. D. The lack of curiosity in youngsters.

7. What will a free-range mom do according to the passage?

A. Purchase the latest toys for their kids.

B. Put their children through extra classes.

C. Allow their children to explore the nature.

D. Avoid exposing their kids to painful lessons.

【答案】4. B    5. A    6. C    7. C

【解析】

本文为说明文。文章讲解了两种美国父母教养孩子的方式,“直升机父母”对孩子的过度保护和“自由放养”父母让孩子们按照自己的节奏探索世界,没有任何方向。

【4题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段“The actions of helicopter parents actually hurt children, by not teaching them to be responsible for their actions. Helicopter parents are also overly worried about their kids getting hurt. This means helicopter parents hold back their child's natural curiosity. Part of growing up means your kid has to get hurt, physically and emotionally.(直升机父母的行为实际上伤害了孩子,因为他们没有教他们为自己的行为负责。“直升机父母”也过于担心他们的孩子会受伤。这意味着“直升机父母”抑制了孩子天生的好奇心。成长的一部分意味着你的孩子必须受到伤害,无论是身体上还是情感上) ”可知,“直升机父母”过于担心孩子在成长过程中受伤,因而对他们过度保护。B选项Overprotective“过分溺爱的”更好地描述了“直升机父母”。故选B项。

【5题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段“ The actions of helicopter parents actually hurt children, by not teaching them to be responsible for their actions.(“直升机父母”的行为实际上伤害了孩子,因为他们没有教他们为自己的行为负责)”可知,“直升机父母”没有教他们的孩子对自己的事情负责,这其实是在伤害他们的孩子。故选A项。

【6题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段“Some people blame the rise of helicopter parenting on the rise of cell phones. Mobile phones make it easier for parents to track their kids all the time.(有些人将“直升机式”家长增多归咎于手机的增多。手机让父母更容易随时追踪孩子的行踪) ”可知,手机让父母更容易随时追踪孩子的行踪,因此手机的增多是“直升机父母”出现的部分原因。故选C项。

【7题详解】

推理判断题。根据第三段“The free-range mom follows a slow parenting style, meaning she lets her kids explore the world at their own pace with little direction. The name free-range comes from the idea that kids should have the freedom to explore their world or range in a way that makes sense to them. (“自由放养”妈妈采用的是一种缓慢的养育方式,这意味着她让孩子们按照自己的节奏探索世界,没有任何方向。“自由放养”这个名字来自于这样一个想法:孩子们应该有自由,以一种对他们来说有意义的方式探索他们的世界或范围) ”可推知,“自由放养”妈妈会让孩子们去探索大自然。故选C项。

C

Most sea turtles, whales and fish may have plastic in their bodies. To determine the various forms and colors of this material in marine animals, Marga Rivas at the University of Almeria in Spain and her team analyzed data from 112 studies published in the past decade. These looked for microplastics and larger macro plastics in marine species globally.

Of the studies, 80 examined the gastrointestinal tracts (胃肠道)of animals to see what they had taken in. The others also looked at wider animal tissues to identify plastics that end up in other parts of the body. After examining all of the data, Rivas and her team concluded that 66 per cent of sea turtles have white-colored macro and microplastics in their systems, while 55 percent have a distinct class of plastic called microfibers, which are shed by some fabrics (织物). The high amount of white plastic in turtles was unsurprising, says Rivas, given that plastic of this color, particularly larger pieces, may resemble jellyfish, a large part of the animals' diets.

Microfibers were also present in 80 percent of whales and dolphins - and white macro and microplastics in 38 percent of them. The researchers also concluded that clear fiber microplastics are probably the most common form of this waste that is taken in by large marine animals globally. Rivas and her colleagues also discovered that the animals with the highest rates of plastic were those in the Mediterranean and the northeast Indian Ocean.

“The Mediterranean is the most contaminated sea in the world, so we expected to find these results,” says Rivas. Marine plastic pollution has increased roughly 10-fbld since 1980, and Rivas says the problem is worsened by inadequate water treatment systems. In parts of India and the southeast Mediterranean, waste water isn’t adequately treated or recycled, she says. This means that microfibers shed by fabrics in washing machines, and larger pieces of rubbish, enter the sea. “It’s possible to introduce management strategies to control these huge threats,” says Rivas.

8. How did Rivas and her team conduct the study?

A. By doing comparative experiments.

B. By analyzing data from previous studies.

C. By determining the forms and colors of plastics.

D. By looking for plastics in global marine animals.

9. Why was it unsurprising to find a large amount of white plastic in sea turtles?

A. White plastic looks like the food sea turtles consume.

B. More while plastic was in the sea than that of other colors.

C. White plastic is the most common form of the plastic waste.

D. White microfibers from fabrics were abundant in the oceans.

10. What does the underlined word “contaminated” probably mean in the last paragraph?

A. Researched B. Conserved C. Examined D. Polluted

11. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?

A. Health. B. Lifestyle. C. Science. D. Education.

【答案】8. B    9. A    10. D    11. C

【解析】

【分析】这是一篇说明文。通过讲述在海龟,鲸鱼和鱼类的身体里都有塑料的事实,进而结合科学家的研究结果,说明要引入管理策略来控制垃圾流入海洋的必要性。

【详解】1. 细节理解题。根据第一段中“To determine the various forms and colors of this material in marine animals, Marga Rivas at the University of Almeria in Spain and her team analyzed data from 112 studies published in the past decade. ”(为了确定这种物质在海洋动物身上的各种形式和颜色,西班牙阿尔梅里亚大学的玛加 · 里瓦斯和她的团队,分析了过去十年间发表的112项研究的数据。)可知,玛加 · 里瓦斯和她的团队通过分析之前发表的112项研究数据来研究塑料在海洋动物身上以何种形式和颜色出现。故选B。

2. 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“The high amount of white plastic in turtles was unsurprising, says Rivas, given that plastic of this color, particularly larger pieces, may resemble jellyfish, a large part of the animals' diets. ”(里瓦斯说,海龟体内大量的白色塑料并不令人惊讶,因为这种颜色的塑料,特别是较大的塑料碎片,可能类似于水母,这是海龟饮食的一大部分。)可知,因为塑料的颜色和海龟饮食的水母很类似,所以海龟才会误食这些塑料,进而使塑料在其身上的数量很多。故选A。

3. 词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段最后一句“Rivas and her colleagues also discovered that the animals with the highest rates of plastic were those in the Mediterranean and the northeast Indian Ocean.”(里瓦斯和她的同事还发现,塑料含量最高的动物是地中海和印度洋的东北部的动物。)可知,地中海和印度洋东北部的塑料含量大,即说明这两部分的海洋受到的污染最大。所以可推知,contaminated此处表示 “污染的”,选项D与文意一致,故选D。

4. 推理判断题。根据第一段首句“Most sea turtles, whales and fish may have plastic in their bodies.”(大多数海龟,鲸鱼和鱼类的身体里都有塑料。)同时根据下文科学家们的研究结果表明,大量的垃圾正在流入海洋,给海洋带来污染。可知,本文可能会在报纸的关于环保的自然的版面上出现。故选C。

D

A mix of anxiety rising in my chest and a voice at the back of my mind shouting ‘what’s wrong with me?’ –it’s how I’ve felt about rejection my whole life.

The earliest rejection I can remember was on my first day of school. I started the term late due to illness and the teacher asked the class who would play with me at break. The silence was deafening. Now, a bit of online dating sees us rejected by half the town before we've even started our day. There's not a break at work. Is there a worse feeling than hitting the final slide on your presentation, boldly asking 'any questions?' and looking around the room to see everyone on their phones?

We need to build resilience. For me, this has come in two stages. First, I spent time listening to the voice of fear that saw each rejection as proof that there was something wrong with me. When I analysed it, I could see it was rarely about me. Perhaps the guy I was talking to was too busy to reply. It was likely that the magazine I'd sent a passage to already had an article on that topic. Now, I assume it's about me 20 per cent of the time - and I can live with that.

The other thing I do is practice rejecting. Because I hate rejection, I shy away from being the rejector, which means I either please people or avoid tricky situations. Instead, I've come up with a few lines for when I want to say no: 'That sounds great but it's not for me; thank you for asking but I decline; it was lovely but I think we should leave it there.' It's never pleasant to reject a person but there is a kind way to do it. With resilience and clarity, we can see the plus sides of rejection: it frees us up to do something else, be with someone else and be happier. We can't complain about that.

12. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?

A. The examples of the author's being rejected.

B. The experiences of the author's online dating.

C. The reasons of the author's lateness for school

D. The feelings of the author's being ignored at work.

13. What did the author find after analyzing the reason of rejection?

A. He could live with it. B. It was partly about him.

C. He did something wrong. D. It had nothing to do with him.

14. What might be the author's advice when you reject others?

A. Do it with resilience and clarity.

B. Come up with a few pleasant lines.

C. Please others or avoid tricky situations.

D. Show your kindness and don't complain.

15. What is one of the benefits of rejection?

A. It enables us to live. B. It gives us more time.

C. It has some plus sides. D. It does something else.

【答案】12. A    13. D    14. A    15. B

【解析】

【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章主要谈论了人际交往中被拒绝的现象、分析原因并给出有关拒绝的建议。

【12题详解】

主旨大意题。第一段中“–it’s how I’ve felt about rejection my whole life.”(——这就是我对被拒绝的感觉。)点明文章主题,交往中被拒绝的现象,根据第二段“The earliest rejection I can remember was on my first day of school.”(我记得第一次被拒绝是在我上学的第一天。)和“Now, a bit of online dating sees us rejected by half the town before we've even started our day.”(而现在,我们还没开始一天的约会就被镇上一半的人拒绝了。)以及“Is there a worse feeling than hitting the final slide on your presentation, boldly asking ‘any questions?’ and looking around the room to see everyone on their phones?”(还有什么比在演讲的最后一张幻灯片上大胆地问“有什么问题吗?”然后环顾四周,看到每个人都在玩手机?)可知,本段是作者举了一些被拒绝的事例。故选A项。

【13题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段中“When I analysed it, I could see it was rarely about me.”(当我分析它的时候,我发现它很少是关于我的。)可知,作者分析了被拒绝的原因之后,发现被拒绝与他没有什么关系。故选D项。

【14题详解】

推理判断题。根据第三段中“We need to build resilience.”(我们需要建立韧性。)和最后一段中“ It’s never pleasant to reject a person but there is a kind way to do it. With resilience and clarity, we can see the plus sides of rejection: it frees us up to do something else, be with someone else and be happier.” (拒绝别人从来都不是一件令人愉快的事,但却有一种友好的方式。有了弹性和清晰度,我们可以看到拒绝的好处:它让我们有时间做其他的事情,和别人在一起,变得更快乐。)可知,作者会建议,当拒绝别人的时候要有弹性和清晰度。故选A项。

【15题详解】

细节理解题。根据最后一段中“With resilience and clarity, we can see the plus sides of rejection: it frees us up to do something else, be with someone else and be happier.”(有了弹性和清晰度,我们可以看到拒绝的好处:它让我们有时间做其他的事情,和别人在一起,变得更快乐。)可知,拒绝的好处之一是它给我们更多的时间。故选B项。

【解析】

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章向读者讲述了针对欺凌应该采取的应对策略。

【详解】1. 根据上文“Bullying is one of most powerful forms of control that one person can use against another. ”(欺凌是一种最有力的控制方式,一个人可以用来对付另一个人。)及下文“It can take a lifetime to recover from such suffering.”(从这样的痛苦中恢复过来可能需要一生的时间。)可知,设空处讲述的内容为欺凌带给受害者的影响。选项F.“Bullying            leads to feelings of being left out and can have long-lasting effects”(欺凌会导致被忽视的感觉,并会产生持久的影响),此处“have long-lasting effects”和下文的“take a lifetime to recove”相呼应,故选F。

2. 根据上文“Recognise and reach out.”(识别欺凌并愿意提供帮助),可知设空处描述的是识别欺凌和提供帮助是重要的。选项C.“Identifying the problem and getting support are crucial”(找出问题并获得支持是至关重要的),选项中identity和recognize意思相近,语义上形成呼应,符合题意。故选C。

3. 结合上文“ For anyone feeling unsettled at work, it's worth making a note of incidents, recording the date and time, how you felt and whether there were witnesses.”(如果有人在工作中感到不安,记录下事件,记录日期和时间,你的感受,以及是否有目击者,都是值得的。)讲述了要把记录欺凌的过程认为是有意义的,可推知,接下来要描述的是这样做的具体意义。选项G.“This            account will be useful when you stand up for yourself and reclaim your power”(当你为自己挺身而出,重新夺回权力时,这个记录会很有用。)与前文意义相符,故选G。

4. 根据上文“Tell someone you trust. This is the most enabling thing you can do. This step can be difficult ”(告诉你信任的人,这是你能做的最有利的事,这一步可能很困难。)可知,上文讲述了要把受欺凌的事讲给自己信任的人,而这一步可能很困难。接下来要描述的是困难的原因是什么。选项E.“because it means breaking through your own denial, disbelief            and shame.”(因为这意味着你要打破自己的否认,怀疑和羞愧。)与上文形成意义上的连贯和一致性,故选E。

5. 根据上文“No one deserves to be bullied. Remember that you are not to blame for the way you are being treated”(没有人应该被欺负。记住,你不应该为别人对你的态度负责)可知,设空处谈论的是解释原因。选项D.“because no one deserves to feel invisible and unworthy”(因为没有人应该感到被忽视和不值得。)符合题意,同时选项中deserve和本段的第一句意义一致,故选D。

【解析】

本文为说明文。文章说明了在COVID-19大流行情况下,如何正确使用公共卫生间,应该注意一些什么事项。

【41题详解】

考查谓语动词时态。句意:目前,COVID-19大流行已经让我们生活的许多正常部分感到恐惧。分析句子可知,该空在句中做谓语成分;由句意和so far可知,该空应用现在完成进行时态(have/has been doing),表示动作从过去某个时刻开始一直持续到现在,甚至将来;又由于主语COVID-19 pandemic为单数,谓语应用单数,应填has been making。故填has been making。

【42题详解】

考查被动语态。句意:你可能听说过这种病毒可以在肮脏的浴室里传播。分析句子可知,该空在宾语从句中做谓语成分;从句中主语the virus和谓语的关系为被动关系,谓语应用被动语态(be done);由于空前有情态动词can,后接的动词应用原形,spread的过去分词为spread。故填be spread。

【43题详解】

考查连词。句意:这在一定程度上是正确的,但如果你的忧虑被填补了,就没有必要恐慌。分析句子可知,该空后为一个句子,且前后句有转折的意义,故该空应用表示转折的连词but。故填but。

【44题详解】

考查形容词。句意:只要你遵循基本的指导方针,用完洗手间后立即离开,你就可以保护自己,感染COVID-19的风险应该很低。由于设空后为名词,故该空应用形容词basic修饰名词。故填basic。

【45题详解】

考查过去分词。句意:洗手间是一个封闭的空间,很多人在这里来来往往。分析句子可知,该空应用过去分词作定语修饰空后的名词,表示动作完成且与所修饰的名词有逻辑上的动宾关系;close的过去分词为closed。故填closed。

【46题详解】

考查不定式。句意:为了保护自己,你最好在进入洗手间前戴上口罩。由句意可知,该空应用不定式to do做目的状语,应填To protect。故填To protect。

【47题详解】

考查介词。句意:让它一直戴着,直到你离开洗手间回到非公共区域。由句意可知,该句表示让口罩戴在脸上,该空应填on,on表示“在……上面”。故填on。

【48题详解】

考查形容词比较级。句意:一般来说,你在洗手间花的时间越少越好。根据句意,以及固定用法“the+比较级,the+比较级,越……越……”可知,该空应用比较级better。故填better。

【49题详解】

考查动名词。句意:这减少了你与任何人密切接触并被感染的机会。分析句子可知,设空前有并列词and,该空为介词of的并列宾语,应用动名词doing形式;又由于该动词与逻辑主语为被动关系,应用被动形式(be done),故该空填being infected。故填being infected。

【50题详解】

考查连词。句意:不要在洗手间花太多的时间,一用完就离开。根据句意以及more可知,该句含有比较的意义,设空前后为比较关系,该空应用than。故填than。

第三部分 写作(共两节,满分35)

第一节 短文改错(10小题;每小题1分,满分10)

51. 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文.文中共有10处语言 错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。

增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(A),并在其下面写出该加的词。

删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。

修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。

注意:1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;

2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。

What do monkeys feed? Bananas, right? However, bananas aren't actual part of their natural diet. In the wild, monkeys usually eat flowers, leaf and insects. They also eat fruits, and which don't include bananas. One zoo in England take note of that. The zoo stopped feeding it’s monkeys bananas, so the animal experts there believe that bananas are bad for their health. The animal experts explain that bananas don't have many protein or fiber. They also have too much sugar. So, giving monkeys bananas is equal to give people cake and chocolate. All that sugar can lead to healthy problems for the monkeys. They can lose their teeth, get fat or get diabetes.

【答案】1. feed后加on    2. actual→actually   3. leaf→leaves    4.删除and 或 which→they   5. take→took  6. it's→ its   7. so→because    8. many→much  9. give→giving  10. healthy→health

【解析】

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了香蕉并不是猴子的健康饮食。

【详解】1.考查不及物动词和介词搭配。句意:猴子吃什么?。feed on“以……为食”是动词固定短语,此处feed为不及物动词。故在feed 后加 on。

2.考查副词。句意:然而,香蕉实际上并不是它们自然饮食的一部分。修饰整句,应用actual的副词形式actually。故将actual改为actually。

3.考查名词复数。句意:在野外,猴子通常以花、树叶和昆虫为食。它们也吃水果,其中不包括香蕉。零冠词可数名词复数表泛指,故此处应用leaf的复数形式leaves和flowers以及insects并列,作宾语。故将leaf改为leaves。

4.考查定语从句以及句子连接。句意:它们也吃水果,其中不包括香蕉。分析句子可知,逗号后可以看作非限制性定语从句,先行词为fruits,关系代词which引导从句,代替先行词,and即为多余,应删除;如果用并列连词and连接句子,则不可用关系代词which指代fruit,应该用人称代词they代指fruit。故将and删除或者 which改为they。

5.考查动词时态。句意:英国的一家动物园注意到了这一点。根据后文“stopped”可知,此处举过去的事例,描述过去发生的事情,用一般过去时,谓语动词用过去式。故将take改为took。

6.考查代词。句意:动物园停止给猴子喂香蕉,因为动物专家认为香蕉对猴子的健康有害。it’s是it is的缩写形式,意为“它是”;its是物主代词,意为“它的”。此处修饰monkeys,故its(它的)符合句意。故将it’s改为its。

7.考查连词。句意:动物园停止给猴子喂香蕉,因为动物专家认为香蕉对猴子的健康有害。后文“the animal experts there believe that bananas are bad for their health”是前文“The zoo stopped feeding…”的原因。故将so改为because。

8.考查形容词many/much区别。句意:动物专家解释说香蕉没有太多的蛋白质和纤维。修饰不可数名词protein or fiber,用much“许多的”。故将many改为much。

9.考查动名词。句意:所以,给猴子香蕉就等于给人们蛋糕和巧克力。be equal to“与……相等”固定搭配中to是介词,介词应接动名词作宾语。故将give改为giving。

10.考查名词作定语。句意:这些糖分会导致猴子的健康问题。修饰名词problems,应用名词health,作定语,health problem健康问题,该短语是固定短语。故将healthy改为health。
