23、r you.” She pulled out a pack of cards, and they played “Go fish” all afternoon. At the end of the day, Gramma gave the kids kisses. Then she said her good-byes. As she drove away, Chris and Jamie heard their parents talking. They said that Gramma Goodies birthday was next Sunday. They were going to
24、 plan a special dinner and bake a delicious cake for her birthday surprise. “Gramma Goodie has a birthday?”they thought. Both were a little puzzled. Grown-ups have birthdays? Who in the world knew? “Well, we have to get her a gift,” Jamie said. “But what?”asked Chris. “Gramma Goodie has almost EVERY
25、THING!”Jamie thought about scarves and flowers. But Gramma had plenty of scarves and a huge rose garden. Chris thought about books, pillows and photo albums. A diary? She had one. An umbrella? She had that too. A radio? There is one in her kitchen. Oh, what would Chris and Jamie do? They spent all w

28、as引导的非限制性定语从句位置灵活, 可以置于主句的句首、句中或句末, 指代的是 “The number of smokers has dropped by 17 percent in just one year. ”整句话; 此处as易与which混淆, which引导非限制性定语从句时, 所指代的是逗号前面的句子; 另外as is reported是一个常用结构。3.B句意: 为了提高服务人员的服务意识, 这两家公司在年底发起了一个让他们的服务人员交流经验的项目。arise “出现, 升起”;raise “提高”; rise “升起”; attract “吸引”。4.B根据答语部分可知,
29、此处表示 “我遗憾地通知你, 你的申请没有成功”。故用regret to do sth结构。5.B句意: 经理告诉我他们提拔了迈克, 但是我与迈克在通电话时他并没有提到升职的事。promote意为 “提拔, 晋升”, 与主语he之间是被动关系, mention后面要跟动词-ing形式, 且表示已完成的动作。故选B项。6.Cburst out/into表示 “突然开始(做某事)”。into后面跟名词; out后面跟动词-ing形式。7.C答语第二句句意: 我已计划请我的一个朋友吃晚饭, 以回报他的帮助。in addition “另外”; in turn “依次”; in return (for)
30、 “作为回报”; in total “总共”。8.A句意: 总花费是200美元, 如果你支付一半的钱, 我会补足剩余的钱。此处要用make up表示 “补足”。catch up “赶上”; take up “从事, 占据”; keep up “保持”。9.C “one of + 复数名词” 中的one被the only修饰时, 后面的定语从句中谓语动词的数的形式要与the only one保持一致。10.Bhad just done.when.表示 “(某人)刚做了某事, 就发生了另外一件事”。.【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者逐步克服自己的社交恐惧的事情。1.C句意: 那天晚上,
31、 我躺在客厅的地板上, 兴奋地看着布莱恩们之间的战斗(battle)。case “案例”; appointment “任命”; conflict “冲突”。根据后文可知, 此处应该是作者在观看一场比赛, 也就是 “战斗”。故选C项。2.D句意: 他们俩都应该(deserved)赢。apply “申请”; attend “参加”; suspect “怀疑”。前文提到两个人都是世界冠军, 此处应是两人都应该赢。故选D项。3.B句意: 博伊塔诺表演(performed)成功。arrange “安排”; process “处理”; approve “批准”。后文提到他分数上升, 可知他赢了, 因此他表
32、现很好。故选B项。4.D句意: 布莱恩博伊塔诺和他的教练坐在镜头前, 被一群记者包围着(surrounded)。reject “拒绝”; treat “治疗”; assist “辅助”。根据常识可知,公众人物在被采访时, 一般都是被记者包围着的。故选D项。5.A句意: 我顿时感到一阵不安。delighted “高兴的”; motivated “有动力的”; willing “愿意的”。根据后文提到作者想到了自己不能参加奥运会等不好的联想可知, 作者此时很低落。故选A项。6.C句意: 只是开记者招待会这个想法就使我害怕(terrified)。attract “吸引”; impress “给予某人
33、深刻印象”; update “更新”。根据前文提到作者不能在公众场合像那样说话可知, 作者对记者招待会是很恐惧的。故选C项。7.B句意: 我可以用跳跃和舞蹈更好地表达(express)自己。enjoy “享受”; clarify “澄清”; adjust “调整”。根据前文提到作者不能在公众场合像那样说话可知, 作者有更好的 “表达” 自己的方式。故选B项。8.D句意: 如果我认为老师会叫我, 我会感到脸红。flow “流动”; pour “倾倒”; slide “滑动”。从文中可知作者很害羞, 在面对老师的时候, 会脸红, 那么造成脸红的原因就是脸部的毛细血管迅速充血, 故作者会感到血涌到他
34、的脸上。故选D项。9.A句意: 我盯着(stared)我的鞋。glare “怒目而视”; concentrate “关心, 关注”; polish “擦”。此处表示作者由于紧张, 盯着自己的鞋子。故选A项。10.C句意: 我确定我会出丑的(fool)。guest “客人”; victim “受害者”; amateur “业余爱好者”。前文提到作者害怕公众场合, 肯定就是害怕自己会出丑, make a fool of oneself为固定搭配, 意为“出丑”。故选C项。11.C句意: 我正在练习一种曾经看起来不可能的(impossible)跳跃组合。thrilling “激动人心的”; comp
35、lex “复杂的”; splendid “极佳的”。后文提到作者好几年一直在练习这种曾经看起来不可能的跳跃组合动作。故选C项。12.B句意: 在记者们和我交谈之后, 尽管每次我和他们交谈时我的心都在怦怦跳(pounded), 我还是逐渐了解了他们。lighten “减轻”; settle “定居”; break “打破”。根据本文一直在讲作者的社交恐惧可知, 作者会心跳加速。故选B项。13.D句意: 他们变成了熟悉的(familiar)面孔。enthusiastic “热情的”; greedy “贪婪的”; eager “渴望的”。记者见得多了就熟悉了。故选D项。14.C句意: 有时我认为我最
36、大的成就不是赢得金牌, 而是(but)在事后与媒体交谈。or “或者”; also “也”; and “和”。根据前面提到金牌, 后面提到与媒体交谈可知, 此处表示转折关系。故选C项。15.B句意: 恐惧可以扼杀(kill)梦想。achieve “达到”; blame “责怪”; lack “缺乏”。kill a dream “扼杀梦想”。故选B项。.On Sunday, the doorbell rang.

37、d send to Grandma to give her a surprise. Entering the house, Grandma asked, “What happened to you both?Did anything go wrong?”“Nothing at all,” they answered and forced a smile to comfort her. After dinner, Grandma Goodie was ready to go home. The kids gave a gift to their grandma. “Whats this?” as
38、ked Gramma Goodie. “Its your birthday gift,” they said happily. At the same time, they asked Grandma to open it quickly. She took the delicate package, then some photos appeared, which were taken during their yearly vacation. Behind each photo, time and their feelings were written down. Looking at these photos, Gramma Goodie recalled the happy times they had spent together, and couldnt help tearing. “Why are you crying?” Jamie asked. “You give me a big surprise, and I am so touched,” she said, giving them kisses on their cheeks.
