22、之外的其他人救了他，使作者脱离飞机，慢慢飞向地面。作者在总结时谈到，一步走错，就有可能丧命。1. B本句提到机场，下一句说到登机，可见是作者arrived “到达”机场。2. A一共是4个人高空跳伞。根据I should exit first可知是其余3个人follow “接着跳”。 escape“逃跑”。3. D根据上文的indicated获得信息。事后才知道这个decision “决定”救了“我”一命。trouble“麻烦”；effort“努力”； chance“机会”。4. A作者另一只腿出来后，降落伞卡住了，但由于气流太强，作者sliding down“沿着飞机机身朝机尾滑去”。 kn
23、ock over“撞击”； crash into “撞碎”；break down“崩溃”。5. B与后面的legs相对应。6. D作者一点都不慌，后面陈述了理由。calm “冷静的”符合题意。frightened“恐惧的”； anxious“紧张的”； excited“兴奋的”。7. D至此，作者得救了。下文中有作者挥手致意的描述。finally有历尽千辛万苦最后达到结果之意。其他几个选项没有这个意义。really “真正地”；hopefully“有希望地”； certainly“肯定地”。8. D从此句起，作者就开始了大量的议论，进行了一系列的假设，说明当时的情况是非常严重，只要一步走错，他
24、就没命了。serious“严重的”符合题意。 funny“好笑的”；ordinary“正常的”；clear“清楚的”。 9. A见上一题的解析。laugh“笑”；stop“停止”；return“返回”。10. C如果作者是最后一个出飞机的，当然飞机上就只剩下飞行员了。他一个人是不可能解救作者的。即使他知道“我”attached“附”在飞机之下，最后还是不得不找个地方降落。cover“覆盖”；adjust“调整”；connect“连接”。11. C根据下文的joy可知答案。excitement“兴奋，刺激”； pride“骄傲，自豪”；confidence“信心”；willingness“愿意，
25、意愿”。12. B但要experience“经历”这种快乐，就必须了解一出错，结果通常就只有一种。observe“观察”； imagine“想象”；discover“发现”。 (2)本文记叙了作者帮助一个女人和几个小孩子的故事。1. A根据第一段的this freezing evening可知作者是要找一个warm “暖和”的地方。2. D根据前面可知作者是想打电话叫拖车，故选call。preparation“准备”； decision“决定”； bill“账单”。3. B空后有“摔倒在油管上”，可见她是在雪上slipped “滑了一跤”。4. C作者跑上前去想帮一把。结果发现与其说她fall
26、en “摔倒了”感到痛苦，倒不如说她在忍住啜泣更加难过。estimate“估算，评估”。5. B根据空前worn out“筋疲力尽”可知答案。6. D呼应前面的sobs。不想让孩子们看到她在crying “哭泣”。7. C根据上一句的her car获得信息。8. A对现在的她来说，自己摔了一跤还筋疲力尽，可见情况非常rough “糟糕”。 typical “典型的”；sharp“锋利的”；tight“紧的”。9. D根据上一句“这使她倒退了好几步”，说明她对作者有防范。空后提到“我不是一个疯子”，这句话是作者试图解释前面的话，让她放心。convince“使信服”符合题意。astonish“惊奇
27、”；approve“赞成”。10. C从空后的card reader可知此处指“卡”card。11. B加油就是把油fill up “灌满”汽车。start out“发动，启程”；pull up“停车”； get over“克服”。12. A根据第6空前的提示可知。(3)1. C该空填名词，意为“地位的提高、提升”，用rise。2. C表方式，由句子含义决定，作者在考上大学之后，家里任何事情都依着他。3. C根据上下文，作者挥霍无度，且为不良习惯，下文有提示。4. Dat ease 自由自在地。5. Ahardlywhen一就6. Dpickout此句意为“抽出一支烟”。7. Bkeep ones promise 履行诺言。8. Cmean to do sth.想要、打算做某事。9. Bthink认为，心里想。作者始终认为父亲说戒烟只是停留在嘴上。10. Cstare at表示作者对此感到很吃惊。11. B由句子含义决定，父亲额头上的皱纹比作者想象的要多。12. Aangered “恼火”，从后一句中可以看出，父亲是一位很坚强的人，从不哭泣。因此，作者怕父亲生气，尽力不让眼泪流出。
