38、der daughter”“her little sister”可以判断,D项正确。答案:D4解析:根据该句中的“picking out a purse and a shining crown”可以判断,“我”的女儿正享受着她的美好时光,挑选她的钱包和闪亮的皇冠。故A项正确。答案:A5解析:根据上文的“rush out”可知,此处指“我”想要快点吃完午饭。B项意为“快的”,故B项正确。答案:B6解析:根据第一段第一句“When you are living a fullyscheduled life,every minute counts”可知,这里指无论什么时候“我”的孩子让“我”偏离计划。
39、C项意为“工作计划,日程安排”,故C项正确。答案:C7解析:根据上文的“we dont have time for this”和空后的“the two words I most commonly spoke to my little lover of life were.”可以判断,我们没有时间,所以“我”经常跟孩子说“赶快”。据此可知,前后句之间为因果关系。A项意为“因此,所以”,故A项正确。答案:A8解析:参见上题解析。Hurry up“赶快”,符合语境。答案:D9解析:根据该句中的“Then one day”以及下文内容可知,本段讲述后来有一天,大女儿对小女儿的态度让“我”意识到“我”对

51、见朋友的经历。由于朋友没有电话,所以作者被的士司机送到了另一个与朋友同名的人的家中。在这个陌生人的家里,作者受到了热情的接待,所以作者最后非常感激陌生人给他的善意。1解析:句意:他一直期待我去拜访他。根据下文朋友留地址可知答案为B项。答案:B2解析:句意:因为他没有电话,所以他给我写了他的地址。从下文的“how I wished he had had a telephone”可知答案。答案:C3解析:语境:朋友告诉我,我只要出现就可以了。show up“露面,出现”;show off“炫耀”;turn out“结果是”;get over“克服”。根据语境选A项。答案:A4解析:语境:朋友告诉我
52、,他的母亲和姐妹们总是在家里。根据上下文语境可知,答案为B项。答案:B5解析:语境:很显然,朋友给我写的地址很难理解。这道题需要从全文来看,因为我在当地的士司机的帮助下才找到朋友的家,结果还找错了,所以朋友给我的地址显然是很难看懂的。答案:D6解析:句意:在一个当地的士司机的帮助下,我被开车送到一个房子,在那里我见到了一个根本不像Abdelatif的女孩。从后文的“whether he was adopted”和“Ive got the wrong Abdelatif”可以看出他们长得不像。答案:D7解析:句意:我在院子里等着,这时姐姐走进屋去,然后在她母亲和妹妹们的陪同下出来,她们都热情地问
53、候我。由“all of whom”可知,姐姐在母亲和妹妹们的陪同(accompanied)下回到院子里。答案:C8解析:句意:我坐在客厅,喝着甜茶,吃着撒有糖屑的曲奇饼干。由常识可知,应是一边喝(drinking)茶一边吃甜点。答案:B9解析:句意:同时这一家人轮流陪我坐,有礼貌地聊天。此处表示前后动作对比,故用while。答案:A10解析:参见上题解析。根据上文的“took turns sitting with me”可知,这里指的是彬彬有礼地聊天(making polite conversations)。答案:B11解析:句意:但是我再次意识到一个事实。strike“猛地意识到”符合语境。
54、答案:D12解析:语境:她们所有人和我朋友长得都一点儿也不像。从后面的“whether he was adopted”和“Ive got the wrong Abdelatif”可以看出没有人和朋友长得像。答案:A13解析:句意:我好奇地想弄明白朋友是否是被收养的。upset“心烦的”;curious“好奇的”;astonished“吃惊的”;frustrated“失意的”。根据后面的“find out whether he was adopted”可知,这里是指好奇的。答案:B14解析:语境:两个小时过去了之后,我终于听到了我在等待的话。根据下文内容可知,这里是过去了两个小时,故用After
55、。答案:D15解析:句意:一个年轻人脸上带着不确定的表情走向前与我握手。从下文可以看出,我找错了人,所以这个人握手时脸上的表情是“不确定的”。答案:C16解析:句意:我感到如此尴尬。走错了门,找错了人,还喝着茶吃着饼干等了两小时,我应感觉到很尴尬(embarrassed)。答案:A17解析:句意:我希望自己能当场消失。因为找错了人很尴尬,所以我希望自己当场消失(disappear)。答案:B18解析:然后姐姐坚定地叫道“没有关系!”根据姐姐的话可知,她是喊叫(exclaimed)来化解尴尬的。答案:A19解析:语境:我如此感动以至于我的泪水涌了出来。tears rush to ones eye
56、s“某人的眼泪涌了出来”。答案:C20解析:句意:我知道有时陌生人能够带来一个美丽的意外和打开我心扉的简单的善意。分析全文可知,陌生人全家的善意(kindness)使我非常感动。答案:AE(2017陕西一检)Jenna had graduated from her middle school and was lucky enough to be admitted to Westwood College.She was ready for new_1_at the college and filled with confidence._2_,she didnt expect it that co
