23、人衣衫破旧,因而“我”认为他一无所有。looks在此表示“the appearance(s) of sb./sth.”,即外表,符合文义。注意expressions指面部表情。2A下文提到“我”给了他足够的钱,不仅可以买车票,甚至可饱餐一顿,找到今天住的地方,所以A项为最佳答案。3A从下文的dignity可知,对方虽然贫穷,但有尊严。此处的air表示“神态;感觉”。其他选项不符合文义。4C文章开头提到我在擦车,而下文提到“as I worked”,说明仍在擦车,故选C项。continue doing/to do sth.继续做某事。5B由上下文可推知,他一无所有,必然会开口向我要钱,故选B项,
24、意为“所预料的”。6D由上句的something inside said,“Ask him if he needs any help.”可知,我相信像他这样的人,一定需要帮助,故选D项。7B通过下文的still可知,他的话直到现在我还记得,故选forget。8D通过下文的like a shotgun可知,他的话对我震动很大。9Areach in my wallet意为“伸手到钱包里拿(钱)”;search for搜寻;look up在里查找;expose to.把暴露于。根据文义,A项正确。10Ashelter在此意为“住所,住处”。从下文的for the day和sleep可以推知,“我”给
25、他的钱足够买车票、吃饭和寻找住处。11D从上下文可知,无论你拥有多少,无论你取得了多大成功,都需要别人的帮助,故选D项。12A从下文的“even without money or a place to sleep”可推知,我们的生活充满问题,甚至可能没钱或睡觉的地方。load with意为“给装上”,在此可以理解为“我们的生活充满问题”。其他选项不符合文义。.1.gradually从句意可知,他钉钉子的数目“逐渐”减少了,故用gradually修饰decreased。2it这里it作形式主语指代后面的不定式短语。3when引导定语从句修饰主语the day,因谓语动词太短仅came一个词,故将
26、从句后置。句意为:他不发脾气的那一天终于到来了。4pull从后面的句子“The days passed and the boy told his father that all the nails were gone.”可知,他父亲要他每天拔出一颗钉子,pull out拔出,取出。又因空缺处作suggest(建议)后的宾语从句的谓语,动词常用虚拟语气,即should动词原形,should可省略,所以用pull。5bytake sb.by the hand是习惯搭配,凡表示“拉、拖、握、揪、牵”等意思的英语动词都用这个搭配,即take/seize/pull/lead.sb.by the slee
27、ve/hair/arm/nose/ear.。6ones指代上文的scars,这里用复数ones指代篱笆上被钉子钉过的洞痕。7thewound在这里是特指,故应该加定冠词。8us句意为:他们会倾听,并且总是向我们敞开心扉。这是父亲跟儿子说话,所以用us。.1.D推理判断题。根据第一部分最后一句话可知Fogg最终赢得了公主的爱。2B数字计算题。根据书写成的时间1873年和他出生的时间1828年可计算出答案是45岁。3B是非判断题。根据第二部分可知这本书的主要人物Fogg是一个既勇敢、慷慨又聪明的人。4A主旨大意题。通读全文可知本文主要介绍的是一本科幻书Around the World in 80 Days。根据本文的题目也可以作出判断。
