）1. Which of the following words can be changed into a noun like “protection”?A.meet
B.sick
C.ill
D.act
答案：1.D
解析：
【分析】
本题要求选出能通过变化形成类似“protection”（由动词加名词后缀-tion构成的名词）的单词，需明确各选项的词性及对应的名词形式，区分不同词性的名词构成规则，逐一排查选项即可得出答案。
【解析】
首先，“protection”是由动词“protect”加名词后缀“-tion”构成的名词，题目要求选出符合该构词特点的单词。逐一分析选项：
1. 选项A：meet是动词，意为“遇见”，其名词形式为meeting，不符合动词加-tion构成名词的特点；
2. 选项B：sick是形容词，意为“生病的”，其名词形式为sickness，是形容词加-ness构成的名词，不符合要求；
3. 选项C：ill是形容词，意为“生病的”，其名词形式为illness，同样是形容词加-ness构成的名词，不符合要求；
4. 选项D：act可作动词，意为“行动”，其名词形式为action，是由动词act加后缀-tion构成的名词，与protection的构词方式一致，符合要求。因此答案为D。
【答案】
D
【知识点】
英语词性转换、名词构成
【点评】
本题考查英语中动词变名词的构词法，核心是掌握常见的名词后缀（如-tion、-ness），区分不同词性单词的名词变化规则，属于基础词汇题，难度较低。

A
) 2. You'd better tell the children football in the street.A.not to play
B.to play
C.not play
D.don't play
答案：2.A
解析：
【分析】首先，本题考查动词的固定搭配，需牢记核心结构“tell sb (not) to do sth”，意为“告诉某人（不要）做某事”。结合语境“最好告诉孩子们不要在街上踢足球”，需使用否定形式，据此排除不符合要求的选项。
【解析】根据固定搭配“tell sb (not) to do sth”，此处需用“not + 带to的不定式”结构表否定。A选项“not to play”符合该结构；B选项为肯定形式，不符合语境；C选项缺少不定式符号to；D选项误用助动词don't，不符合搭配要求，因此选A。
【答案】A
【知识点】动词不定式；固定短语搭配
【点评】本题考查英语基础动词搭配，属于语法基础题，只要掌握tell的相关固定结构即可轻松解答，难度较低。

B.is; smaller and smaller
C.are; fewer and fewer
D.are; smaller and smaller
答案：3.B
解析：
【分析】首先，明确"the number of"的主谓一致规则："the number of + 可数名词复数"表示"……的数量"，作主语时谓语动词用单数，据此排除be动词为are的选项C、D；其次，辨析修饰"数量（number）"的形容词：表示数量的"大/小"用large/small，few用于修饰可数名词的数量，不能直接修饰number，因此"数量变得越来越小"需用smaller and smaller，最终确定答案。
【解析】1. 主谓一致判断："the number of + 复数名词"作主语时，谓语动词需用单数形式，故be动词用is，排除C、D选项；2. 形容词辨析：修饰"数量（number）"应使用表示"大小"的形容词small，而非修饰可数名词数量的few，"越来越小"的正确表达为smaller and smaller，因此选B。
【答案】B
【知识点】主谓一致；形容词比较级；名词修饰词
【点评】本题考查初中英语核心基础考点，涉及"the number of"的主谓一致规则，以及修饰数量的形容词用法，属于常见易错题，需牢记固定搭配区分。

二、阅读理解
I have always been amazed by the animal world. Recently, I read a novel called Lions’ Journey. The book tells the story of five male lions. They left home and began their adventures. Unluckily, one was hurt by a giraffe. Another was killed by a hunter. The third one died during a fight for water with a rhino (犀牛). The fourth lion drowned (淹死). Only the youngest one, named Red Ribbon, was still alive. After going through many difficulties, he finally became the lion king.
The story shows the love and care between friends, and the problem of life and death faced by wild animals. That the young lion finally became the king teaches me a great lesson: what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Everyone will face lots of difficulties during their lifetime. We should learn to stay strong.
