44、为过了很多年而变老,是因为自己放弃了自己的目标而慢慢变老的,所以年轻是一种心态的问题,不是时间问题,所以B正确。19D根据后文Is there some model that youre supposed to look a certain way at 65 and 75 and 85? You know you can die old at 30 and live young at 80.可知年老没有固定的样子,你可以30岁死去也可以80岁仍然年轻,因此年老是一种观点,所以D正确。20C根据前句There are many wrong ideas about aging.可知有很多有关衰老
45、的错误观点,这些观点在年龄上固化人们,下面还列举了一些常见的观点,所以C正确。第三部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。When I was in high school,I belonged to a club that did community service work.There was one special 21 that was uncommon for me.I spent three or four hours 22 out warm

55、的逻辑关系。在解题的时候,我们一定要根据前后词语的相互关系,联系上下文,有时要结合常识,才能确定正确的选项。如第22小题,根据上文“我加入了一个做社区服务工作的俱乐部”可知,此处应指“给街上给无家可归的人分发温热的晚餐”,handing out“分发”符合语境;第23小题,既然是给街上给无家可归的人分发温热的晚餐,那么还有可能去的地方应该是“无家可归者收容所”。第二节语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。Once,three men got 41.

(hold) nothing in his hands came back,with blood on his face.The other two asked him 50. had happened.He looked at them and relied,“I found tracks,I followed the tracks,and I got hit by a train.” 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了三个男人在森林里迷路,在找到路之前各自出去寻找食物的经历。41lost考查词语搭配。get lost
59、迷路。42their考查形容词性物主代词。该空后面的way是名词,所以前面要填上一个形容词性物主代词。故填their“他们的”。43surprised考查形容词。这里要用一个形容词来修饰“two men”。故填surprised“吃惊的”。44slightly考查副词。后面的confused为形容词,所以要用副词来修饰动词。45later考查副词。a few days later几天之后。46of考查介词搭配。 in search of寻找。47to get考查非谓语动词。根据前面的“managed”可知后面要填动词不定式。manage to do sth.设法完成某事。48the考查冠词。根
60、据后面的“same as”可知,前面要填上定冠词“the”,the same as 和一样。49holding考查非谓语动词。hold与前面的主语“the third man”是主动关系,所以要用ing形式。50what考查代词。这里要用代词“what”作“happened”的宾语,指代发生的事情。第四部分写作(满分35分)第一节短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(),并在其下面写出该加的词。删除:把多余的词
