一、用 if 或 unless 填空。
Many people think they don't understand poetry. They believe $\underline{\quad1\quad}$ they have special training, they cannot enjoy reading poems. This is not true.
Take short poems for example. Some readers give up because the language seems difficult. But $\underline{\quad2\quad}$ they read a poem aloud a few times, they often start to feel its rhythm. A poem may not reveal its meaning $\underline{\quad3\quad}$ you read it more than once.
Imagery is another challenge. $\underline{\quad4\quad}$ you pay attention to the pictures the words create, you might miss the poem's beauty. But $\underline{\quad5\quad}$ you relax and use your imagination, the scenes will come to life.
Some people worry about finding the "right" meaning. They think $\underline{\quad6\quad}$ their interpretation is different from others', it must be wrong. This is not true. Poetry speaks to everyone differently. $\underline{\quad7\quad}$ a poem touches your heart, it has done its job.
Writing your own simple poems can also help. $\underline{\quad8\quad}$ you try to express your feelings in words, you will never know how much skill it requires. And $\underline{\quad9\quad}$ you share your work with friends, you might be surprised by their encouragement.
The most important thing is to keep reading. $\underline{\quad10\quad}$ you give poetry a real chance, you may discover a new world of beauty and emotion. So pick up a poem today!

答案：1. unless 2. if 3. unless 4. Unless 5. if
6. if 7. If 8. Unless 9. if 10. If
6. if 7. If 8. Unless 9. if 10. If
解析：
【分析】
解题前首先要明确if和unless的核心差异：if意为“如果”，引导正向条件状语从句，即满足从句描述的条件，就会产生主句对应的结果；unless意为“除非、如果不”，语义等同于if...not，即不满足从句描述的条件，就会产生主句对应的结果。解题时逐空翻译空格前后的分句，梳理二者的逻辑关系，判断是正向假设还是“如果不/除非”的反向假设，对应选择if或unless，同时注意位于句首的引导词首字母需要大写，即可完成所有填空。
【解析】
1. 句意为：他们认为除非接受过专门训练，否则没法享受读诗的乐趣，对应“如果没受过训练就不能享受读诗”的反向逻辑，填unless。
2. 句意为：但如果他们把一首诗大声朗读几遍，往往就会开始感受到它的韵律，属于正向条件假设，填if。
3. 句意为：除非你反复读不止一遍，否则诗歌可能不会展现它的含义，构成not...unless的固定逻辑结构，填unless。
4. 句意为：意象是另一个难点，如果你不留意文字营造的画面，就可能错过诗歌的美感，对应反向逻辑，且单词位于句首首字母大写，填Unless。
5. 句意为：但如果你放松下来、调动想象力，诗中的场景就会变得鲜活，属于正向条件假设，填if。
6. 句意为：他们认为如果自己的解读和其他人不一样，那这个解读就一定是错的，属于正向假设，填if。
7. 句意为：如果一首诗触动了你的内心，它就完成了它的使命，属于正向条件假设，且单词位于句首首字母大写，填If。
8. 句意为：除非你试着用语言表达自己的感受，否则你永远都不会知道这需要多少技巧，对应反向逻辑，且单词位于句首首字母大写，填Unless。
9. 句意为：而且如果你把自己的作品分享给朋友，你可能会对他们给出的鼓励感到意外，属于正向条件假设，填if。
10. 句意为：如果你给诗歌一个真正接触的机会，你可能会发现一个充满美感与情绪的全新世界，属于正向条件假设，且单词位于句首首字母大写，填If。
【答案】
1. unless 2. if 3. unless 4. Unless 5. if 6. if 7. If 8. Unless 9. if 10. If
【知识点】
条件状语从句；if与unless辨析
【点评】
本题结合诗歌阅读的生活化语境考查条件状语从句的引导词辨析，解题核心是跳出死记硬背规则的误区，通过翻译梳理主从句的语义逻辑，牢记unless等价于if...not的核心含义，区分正向假设和反向假设的差异，同时注意句首单词首字母大写的细节，大部分学生理清两个词的语义区别后都能顺利完成作答。

二、综合填空。
新素材 人文地理 The Forbidden City in Beijing is one of China's most famous cultural sites. It was the home of emperors for nearly 500 years.
Today, millions of tourists visit it every year. They walk through the huge gates and imagine what life was like inside. But $\underline1$ you know the stories behind the buildings, you are just looking at old walls. A guide can $\underline2$ (解释) the history clearly so that visitors truly understand.
Take the Hall of Supreme Harmony for example. It was the most important building in the Forbidden City. The emperor used it for ceremonies. $\underline3$ you stand in front of it, you can feel its power and grandeur(威严). But $\underline4$ you visit on a rainy day, the crowds are smaller and you can enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.
Many young people ask $\underline5$ the Forbidden City is still important today. The answer is yes. It teaches us about China's rich culture and history. $\underline6$ we want to understand our past, we must protect such places. However, $\underline7$ we take care of these treasures, they will disappear over time.
My cousin works $\underline8$ a guide there. She speaks quite $\underline9$ (fluency) in both Chinese and English. Every morning she arrives at the Meridian Gate before it opens. She loves her job because she shares $\underline{10}$ /'nɒlɪdʒ/ with visitors. One of her favourite parts is the Imperial Garden, where ancient trees still stand today.

解析：
【分析】
这是一篇结合故宫人文主题的综合填空题，解题思路如下：第一步先通读全文，把握文章核心是介绍故宫的价值以及相关的英语语法考点，整体时态以一般现在时为主；第二步区分不同类型的空：有中文提示、音标提示的空先结合对应信息推导，无提示的空结合上下文逻辑、句子结构判断引导词或固定搭配，同时注意词性变换、句首大写等细节，逐一验证每个空的合理性。
【解析】
1. 空：前后句逻辑为“你只是在看旧墙”的前提是“你不了解建筑背后的故事”，引导条件状语从句表“除非”，填unless。
2. 空：中文提示“解释”对应英文explain，情态动词can后必须接动词原形，填explain。
3. 空：句意为“如果你站在它面前，就能感受到它的力量与威严”，引导条件状语从句表“如果”，句首首字母大写，填If。
4. 空：可引导条件/时间状语从句，表达“如果/当你在雨天游览”的含义，填if或when都符合逻辑。
5. 空：动词ask后接宾语从句，表达年轻人提问的内容是“故宫如今是否仍然重要”，表“是否”用if或whether引导。
6. 空：句意为“如果我们想要了解过去，就必须保护这类场所”，引导条件状语从句表“如果”，句首首字母大写，填If。
7. 空：前后句逻辑为“这些瑰宝会消失”的前提是“我们不好好照料它们”，引导条件状语从句表“除非”，填unless。
8. 空：固定搭配work as意为“担任，以……身份工作”，符合“在那里做导游”的语义，填as。
9. 空：给出名词fluency，此处需要副词修饰动词speak，变换为副词形式fluently。
10. 空：根据音标/ˈnɒlɪdʒ/对应单词knowledge，构成搭配share knowledge表示“分享知识”，填knowledge。
【答案】
1. unless 2. explain 3. If 4. if/when 5. if/whether 6. If 7. unless 8. as 9. fluently 10. knowledge
【知识点】
状语从句引导词，词性转换，固定搭配
【点评】
本题选取故宫相关的人文新素材，考点覆盖初中英语核心语法点，既考察学生对上下文逻辑的梳理能力，也兼顾了音标认读、提示词变形、固定短语积累的基础能力，难度适中，解题时需要注意句首单词首字母大写这类容易失分的细节。
