2. ___ travel by ordinary train, but this time we chose the high-speed one.

Lily: Sounds great!
答案：1. amazing 2. used to 3. crowded 4. difference 5. getting around
解析：
1. 此处描述高铁的体验，需用修饰事物的形容词，amaze的形容词形式amazing表示“令人惊讶的”，符合语境；2. 根据后文“这次选择高铁”可知父母过去常坐普通火车，used to do sth.意为“过去常常做某事”，符合题意；3. 此处描述长途汽车的缺点，crowd的形容词形式crowded表示“拥挤的”，符合语境；4. 前文对比了高铁和长途汽车的耗时，此处指两者有很大差异，different的名词形式difference表示“差异”，a big difference为固定搭配；5. get around意为“游览；四处走动”，介词for后接动词的动名词形式，故填getting around。
( ) 1.— Shall we get around the city by ___ taxi?
— Oh, it's about the rush hour. I recommend taking ___ underground.
A./; /
B./; the
C.the; /
D.the; an
— Oh, it's about the rush hour. I recommend taking ___ underground.
A./; /
B./; the
C.the; /
D.the; an
答案：B
解析：
1. “by + 交通工具”为固定搭配，中间不加冠词，故第一空不填；2. “take + the + 交通工具”为固定表达，故第二空填the。因此选B。
( ) 2.I ___ lie in the sofa right after dinner, but now I go for a walk to improve my health.
A.am used to
B.use to
C.is used to
D.used to
A.am used to
B.use to
C.is used to
D.used to
答案：D
解析：
本题考查used to与be used to的用法辨析。used to do sth.表示“过去常常做某事”，强调过去的习惯，与现在形成对比；be used to doing sth.表示“习惯于做某事”。根据句中“but now”可知此处是过去与现在的对比，且空格后接动词原形lie，故用used to。选项A后需接动名词，不符合；选项B形式错误；选项C主语I对应的be动词应为am，且结构不符。因此正确答案为D。
( ) 3.— AI helps us a lot, and it can make our lives more ___.
— Yes, but it can also make us lazier.
A.meaningful
B.expensive
C.difficult
D.convenient
— Yes, but it can also make us lazier.
A.meaningful
B.expensive
C.difficult
D.convenient
答案：D
解析：
本题考查形容词词义辨析。根据对话中“AI helps us a lot”的语境，结合选项词义，人工智能能让生活更方便，选项D符合题意。
( ) 4.Hainan is always ___ with tourists. After all, it has the most popular beaches in our country.
A.busy
B.heavy
C.crowded
D.active
A.busy
B.heavy
C.crowded
D.active
答案：C
解析：
本题考查固定搭配及词义辨析。be crowded with为固定搭配，意为“挤满……”，符合“海南总是挤满游客”的语境。A选项busy常搭配be busy with sth（忙于某事），不用于描述人多；B选项heavy多形容交通、重量等，不指人多；D选项active意为“活跃的”，不符合题意。故选C。
( ) 5.— Shall we go to Shenzhen by high-speed train or plane next weekend?
— ___. It is usually faster to fly there, but it's said that a storm is on the way.
A.No way
B.Sounds great
C.It depends
D.You decide
— ___. It is usually faster to fly there, but it's said that a storm is on the way.
A.No way
B.Sounds great
C.It depends
D.You decide
答案：C
解析：
对话中问句询问出行方式，答句提到坐飞机通常更快，但有暴风雨来临，说明无法直接确定选择，需视情况而定。分析选项：A“没门”、B“听起来不错”不符合语境；D“你决定”与答句内容不符；C“视情况而定”符合语境。
