Today, I had acupuncture(针灸) for the first time! I 16.woke(wake) up this morning with a bad backache, so I asked the hotel clerk if they knew of any nearby hospitals. They gave me 17.a list of some places I could go to, and it included an acupuncture clinic that was right next door, so I decided 18.to give(give) it a try.

I was surprised when they started putting in needles, because I hardly felt anything 19.at first. I thought it would hurt, but 20.actually(actual) I didn't even know that I had any needles sticking in me. Then I started experiencing warmth in my lower back, and I became very 21.relaxed(relax).
I think it must have helped, because my back stopped hurting. Later, I went to a shop next door that sells Chinese herbal medicine (中药). I was amazed 22.because/that there were huge glass bottles full of all kinds of roots, 23.leaves(leaf), and plants, and things I cannot even describe. I didn't know 24.what to buy, so I ended up buying two boxes of dried ginseng—one for me, and the other as a gift for my friend. I'll give it to 25.him(he) when I get back to London.

答案： 16.woke 17.a 18.to give 19.at 20.actually 21.relaxed 22.because/that 23.leaves 24.what 25.him

将方框中所给词语的适当形式填入短文中，每词仅用一次。(2025·慈溪)

When I first arrived in China, I was surprised to find that nearly every restaurant menu has 1.pictures of food in it. But many restaurants I've been to in the US don't. What is the reason for the difference?
One thing I've 2.exactly known about China is that food is a bigger part of their culture than it is in the US. A common way to 3.greet someone in China is to ask them if they've eaten yet. Clearly, food is a big 4.deal here.
Another thing is the names of the dishes. They are interesting but don't really tell you what the dishes are like. So it's 5.helpful to have picture menus so that you can actually see what you are going to eat.
There are probably even more reasons. All I know is that I was very thankful to have those picture menus when I first came to China years ago.

答案： 1.pictures 2.exactly 3.greet 4.deal 5.helpful
