19、 work”用一般现在时，主句应用一般将来时。下文中的“when he becomes a manager, he will never know the sufferings . ”亦是提示。3employees考查词性转换。他永远也不会知道他下属的痛苦。空前的“his”表明，此处应用名词，且此处用名词复数形式表泛指。4who考查定语从句的引导词。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词person，并在定语从句中作主语，故用who。5successful考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，空处在句中作表语，故用形容词successful。6a考查冠词。此处指让你的孩子住在一个大房子里，表

29、可推知，一个男人在教儿子放风筝。instruct“教授”。故选B。2A根据下文可知，诗篇中的儿子突然(suddenly)把线松开，让风筝高飞。3D与语境“disappears”呼应可推知，风筝消失在远方(in the distance)。4B这个男人意识到最终(eventually)他必须对儿子放手。5C结合语境可推知，诗篇中的父亲有疑问，想知道自己将来会不会无私地“松开线”。wonder“想知道”。6D根据语境可推知，作者的儿子宣布他将不会完成大学学业。7D根据下文的“At the end of the semester Gary moved back home”可知，作者的劝说毫无作用。m
30、ake a difference意为“有作用”。8B根据下文的“What was a college professors _10_ doing at a job”可知，作者的儿子找到了一份工作。9C根据上文的“with usual enthusiasm”和下文的“was deeply disappointed”可知，上下文表示逻辑上的转折关系。10C根据上下文可知，Gary和作者是父子关系。11D根据作者下文所说的话和上文的“reasoning”可知，作者想劝说儿子放弃那份工作，因为作者感到很失望。persuade“劝说”。12D根据“reunion”可知，此处是和以前的高中同学团聚。for
31、mer “以前的”。13C根据语境可知，作者认为儿子的工作一个高中辍学者都可以做，而他的同学们则成了医生、律师和工程师，作者问儿子能否应对这种情况。handle“应付，处理”。14A作者的儿子很坚定地回答，没有丝毫犹豫，与语境“Yes，Dad，”呼应。15B根据上文可知，儿子的话让作者沉默了。16C根据上文的“I have written a poem called Flying Kites”可知，作者想起了自己写的那首诗。17B根据上文的“Will I release the string as unselfishly us that”可知，此处表示要放开风筝上的线。18A根据空后的“mak

36、get my MP3 player back! I want to be kind person like the lady.难项分析：第一处：去掉been考查动词的语态。此句中the money为先行词，其后为省略了关系词which/that的定语从句。从句中I和save之间是主动关系，所以此处不能用被动语态。第四处：ifwhether考查宾语从句。asked后的句子是宾语从句。宾语从句可用if/whether “是否”来引导，但whether可与or not连用，if则不可，故应将if改为whether。第十处：kind前加a考查冠词。person为可数名词，且此处表泛指，故其前应加不定冠词，表示“一个善良的人”。五、七选五。
