231、的；friendly友好的。根据常识可知，人们退休了以后，生活常是悠闲的，故选A。3. 解析：选C。退休以后，老人可以更好的享受家庭的乐趣，enjoy最佳。4. 解析：选B。go off开火、爆炸，(电灯等)熄灭；get by维持生计，设法过活；pass on转交，递给；work away连续不停地工作。根据前面的extended family和miss the paycheck可推知，老人生活上悠闲，但没有了工资，生活可能不如以前宽松，但他们能设法维持，故选B项。5. 解析：选D。根据上文retire和下文的his good worker可知，作为老板，自己的好员工要走了，自然惋惜，sorr

232、y符合情理。6. 解析：选A。从下文得知，老木匠的最后一座房子造的很不好，是因为他不用心。所以此处表示转折，A项but表示转折，意为“他虽然答应了，但并不用心工作”。注意while是并列连词，表示前后对比，而非转折。7. 解析：选B。根据前文的bad workmanship和下文可知，老木匠用的建筑材料是劣质的，故inferior正确。8. 解析：选D。根据前文的retire，go and asked if he could build just one more house可知，这是老木匠为老板建造的最后一座房子，是他一生事业的结束，故选D。9. 解析：选C。作为老板，自己让人建设的房子完工

233、了，自然来查看一下。下文也提到他并非来购买、出售或修理房子。10. 解析：选C。从下文的“If he had only known he was building his own house”可以看出，老板把刚刚建设的房子作为礼物(gift)送给了老木匠，故应该给他房门钥匙。11. 解析：选A。根据上下文可知，这是老板给老木匠的礼物，以表示感谢。12. 解析：选B。根据上文的shock和下句“If he had only known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently”可知，老木匠为自己

234、做的蠢事感到羞耻、后悔，故选B项。13. 解析：选A。So it is with sb.意为“也如此”。注意此题易错选as，误认为是定语从句。as可以引导定语从句，但注意此句句末的标点是句号，因此缺少先行词，无法构成定语从句。其他选项在意思、结构均不正确。14. 解析：选D。根据文意，作者在向我们阐述一个道理：我们的生活也像老木匠建房子一样，没有投入全身心，即用的努力少(less)，因此，选D项符合文意。15. 解析：选A。根据上下文，开始我们没有觉察，但后来当我们认识到自己的愚蠢行为时，为时已晚。所以，此处选择realize。16. 解析：选B。根据上文If we could do it o

235、ver, we would do it much differently.可知此处表达，我们虽认识到错误，但有些事情是无法重新再做一遍的。step forward走出，向前进；go back回到、重新再来；come out(太阳、星星)出现；look around环视、环顾。四个词组中只有go back符合文意。17. 解析：选C。根据下文可知，作者在引用某人(曾经说过)的话，所以用副词once最合适。其他选项与文意不符。18. 解析：选A。根据上文，老木匠既有经验，技艺也高超，但因为态度不端正结果犯了大错。因此，一个人做事的态度决定结果，故选attitude。19. 解析：选D。make a

236、 choice/choices意为“作出选择”。20. 解析：选B。根据最后一段和上文中的therefore可知，作者是在告诫读者：我们既然明白了这个道理，那么“建造自己的房子时”就明智些吧！所以wisely正确。. 1. 解析：选B。细节理解题。从第一段“as many smokers say，smoking helps them to think and fix their attention on their work”可知答案。2. 解析：选C。主旨大意题。本题要求对George Spilich的实验过程进行总结。由文意可知，他首先对实验者进行“recognized a certain

237、 letter among a grouping of 96”，然后“The next test was more difficult, requiring all to scan(扫描)groups of 20 letters and find the one of the letters changed into a different one, In the third test of shortterm memory”，而在第四次他“required people to read a passage, then answer questions about it”，由此可知，C项正确。

238、3. 解析：选D。细节理解题。从第一个测试中可以得出这样的结论。4. 解析：选B。推理判断题。从最后一句“A smoking airline pilot could fly adequately if no problems arose, but if something went wrong, smoking might damage his mental capacity”可知答案选B。5. 解析：选A。细节理解题。第一段第二句“不像其他多产作者一次只写一本书，她一次能写五本”这句话交代了她与其他作者的不同之处。6. 解析：选C。细节理解题。第二段中间部分关于一套为孩子们写的Max and

239、 Martha故事书，目的是帮助他们解决现实生活中有关死，新的生命及新学校的问题，说明读了此书就该知道家里一旦有新的生命诞生如何去做。7. 解析：选C。细节理解题。由第二段“Her 1998 book about the death. it came out”可知答案。她的28部书已拍成电影并非电视剧；her picture books for children而非young men；D项内容与第二段最后一句不符。8. 解析：选B。推理判断题。最后一段中交代Danielle Steel认为她的读者是最重要的资源，她一直和他们通过email保持联系，可见她非常重视她的读者。9. 解析：选D。词义

240、猜测题。根据文章最后两句话意思推知。. 1. To tell us the reason why we should study science./To show us the importance of studying science./To tell us the importance of understanding some science.2.
