考点规范练2(　Unit 2)
Ⅰ.阅读理解
In the summer of 2002,my husband Brian and I fancied a lakeside holiday in Europe,and came across a package holiday in Hungary(匈牙利),on Lake Balaton.
Curiosity got the better of us.With no further information,we put our trust in the travel company,and were transferred to the southern tip of Lake Balaton.We were the only British guests,the rest being German,Austrian and Hungarian.The hotel was fine,the weather was hot and the lake was very warm.
There were few tourist attractions locally,but the hotel receptionist(the only English speaker in the hotel) suggested we visit the nearby town of Hévíz,noted for its spa(矿泉) and lake.In spite of our lack of language skills,we boarded the local bus and,half an hour later,arrived in the small town square.
With no signposts to follow in English,we followed a group of people carrying bags and towels.Moments later,we entered the huge wooden entrance gates to the park and lake,and were transported back a whole century as we came upon the lake and the delightful ancient wooden structure.The lake covers an area of about an acre surrounded by grassy banks and is an impressive 110 feet deep with a constant temperature of 39℃.Its edges are covered in water lilies(睡莲).Once changed,like most other swimmers,we were given an industrial-sized rubber ring.You can lie back in this rubber ring and gently move among the water lilies in the warm water. 
It was completely relaxing and made for an experience that was extremely enjoyable,and the talking point of our holiday for many years.

答案与解析:
【语篇导读】水对于生命来说是必不可少的。每年有许多儿童死于由水传播的疾病,如何让整个人类和谐共享优质的水,作者给出了建议并发出了号召。
1.disease(s)　解析:考查名词的数。disease既可作可数名词也可作不可数名词,故此处应填disease或diseases。
2.especially　解析:考查副词。此处修饰空后的介词短语,因此应该用副词形式。
3.from　解析:考查介词。根据固定搭配free sb from...“使某人摆脱……”可知,此处应填介词from。
4.carrying　解析:考查非谓语动词。介词后面应该用动词的-ing形式,所以填carrying。
5.is required　解析:考查时态、语态及主谓一致。句中缺少谓语;根据整篇文章的时态及still的提示可知,此处应用一般现在时;由于句子的主语与require之间在逻辑上是动宾关系,主语为“a major effort”,所以用一般现在时的被动语态is required。
6.marks　解析:考查时态及主谓一致。分析句子结构可知句中why引导表语从句,从句中缺少谓语;根据本句中的is可知,此处应用一般现在时;由于主语是this year,为单数,因此应填marks。
7.to meet　解析:考查非谓语动词。此处与8空后的不定式是并列关系,都作is的表语,因此此处应填不定式to meet。
8.and　解析:考查连词。此处应用and连接两个并列的非谓语动词。
9.an　解析:考查冠词。这是人类发展与人类尊严的一件紧迫之事。此处表示泛指“一件”,因此用不定冠词an。
10.survival　解析:考查名词。世界水资源是我们生存的生命线。介词for后面应用提示词的名词形式作其宾语。
