52、 outB.brought upC.brought inD.brought on答案:B解析:bring out的含义是“拿出”;bring up的含义是“抚养,培养”;bring in表示“引进”;bring on则表示“引起,使提高”。由本句前面的“His children”可知此处指“他抚养的孩子们”。37.A.nearestB.most usefulC.farthestD.strangest答案:A解析:根据and后的“those whom we trust .”可知此处应用与trust最接近的词,在四个选项中只有nearest表示“那些与我们最亲近的人”符合句意。38.A.mustB
53、.have toC.mayD.should答案:C解析:根据上一句“His children that he . may show no thanks.”和下一句“The money that a man has may .”中的may可知此处应用may与上下文保持一致。39.A.keepB.useC.earnD.lose答案:D解析:keep的含义是“保持”;use的含义是“使用”;earn的含义是“挣”;lose的含义是“失去”。因为以上两句讲的都是好的事情变成不好的事情,所以此处用lose表示“一个人所拥有的金钱可能会失去”。40.A.moreB.mostC.betterD.very答案
54、:B解析:most在句中表示“最”,即“也许在他最需要它的时候”。41.A.actionB.thoughtC.movementD.mind答案:A解析:action的含义是“行为”;thought的含义是“想法”;movement的含义是“运动”;mind的含义是“思想,想法”。此处用action表示“一个人有考虑不周的行为时,可能会失去名誉”。42.A.firstB.lastC.latestD.newest答案:A解析:本句句意是:那些在我们成功时对我们毕恭毕敬的人可能在我们失败时首先对我们落井下石。此处用first来表示那些人的势利。43.A.closeB.selfishC.kindD.u
55、nselfish答案:D解析:close的含义是“近的”;selfish的含义是“自私的”;kind的含义是“亲切的,和蔼的”;unselfish的含义是“无私的”。由下文可知本段要讲述好的人或物。因此此处用unselfish和下面的this selfish world相呼应。44.A.wifeB.dogC.himselfD.brother答案:B解析:由下文都在谈论狗对主人的忠诚可知此处应用dog。45.A.whetherB.even thoughC.althoughD.whenever答案:A解析:由下文的“he is rich or poor”可知应用whether和or搭配,表示“无论
56、他富有还是贫穷”。46.A.thereB.becauseC.whereD.which答案:C解析:此处用where引导定语从句,相当于on which,修饰先行词the cold ground。47.A.as long asB.even ifC.so thatD.though答案:A解析:as long as的含义是“只要”;even if表示“即使”;so that表示“为了”;though表示“虽然”。此处用as long as表示“只要他可以在主人的身边”。48.A.eatB.takeC.kissD.shake答案:C解析:在四个选项中表示“狗对主人的爱”的词只有kiss,即“吻那只不能
57、给他食物吃的手”。此题易误选shake,但shake表达不了狗的可爱和忠诚。49.A.isB.wereC.had beenD.would be答案:B解析:as if引导方式状语从句时,常用虚拟语气,因此应用were。50.A.leavesB.criesC.remainsD.disappears答案:C解析:由上面的“When all other friends desert him”中的desert(抛弃)可知此处用remains(留下)来表示狗对主人的忠心。51.A.intoB.onC.out ofD.through答案:D解析:当主人失去名誉时,狗对于他的爱就像穿过天空的太阳一样永恒。介
58、词through的含义是“穿过”。52.A.whyB.whichC.howD.what答案:D解析:由于句子中的asks for缺少宾语,所以排除不做宾语的副词why和how;which的含义是“哪一个”,而本句中没有疑问的含义,由此排除which;what可以引导主语从句但不表示疑问。句意:如果主人变得无亲无友、无家可归,忠诚的狗所要求的就是和主人在一起。53.A.birthB.lifeC.deathD.kindness答案:C解析:由下文的grave(墓)可知此处用death。54.A.layB.is lainC.is layingD.is laid答案:D解析:lie的含义是“躺”,其过
59、去式和过去分词分别为lay和laid;lay作为动词原形时,其含义是“放置,产卵”,其过去式和过去分词都是laid。由句意“他的尸体被放置在冰冷的土里”可知此处应用被动结构,即is laid。55.A.closedB.openC.shutD.opened答案:B解析:由下面的watchfulness可知,此处应用open(睁开的)来表示狗为主人守墓。四、语篇填空(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。Sophia likes English very much.She spends a lot of time 56.(read)
