92、DbecauseD解析：前后为因果关系， 空后是说明夫妇俩之所以这样做的原因， 故选D。3Abasement BbedroomCkitchen DyardA解析：本空根据倒数第二段“the sad dog had made trip after trip to the basement” 可知答案为A, “幸运” 是把东西藏在地下室的玩具箱里。4Acold BcancerCheadache DstomachacheB解析：从下文 Mary 为此想到了死并且还到医院做了手术住院三周可知这不是感冒之类的小毛病， 再从最后一段“Mary is still cancerfree” 可知 Mary 有一
93、天查出自己患了癌症。故选B。5Akeep BloseCpunish DleaveD解析：注意此处的时态， 本处是在描述 Mary 当时的心理活动， 她在想： “幸运” 不会明白我不愿意离它而去(因为她想到自己可能会死)。D项符合句意。6Apain BsadnessCbusiness DdeathD解析：由上文“If I die” 可知本句是说： 这一想法让 Mary 感觉比想到自己死还要难受。故选D。7Asuccessful BexpensiveCdifficult DpainfulA解析：从后文 Mary 出院回家并且活了十二年， 癌症没有夺去她的生命可知手术很成功。故选A。8AGradua
94、lly BFinallyCUnluckily DNaturallyB解析：Mary 在医院里治疗了三个星期， 最后终于迎来了出院回家的日子。故选B。9Afrightened BdisappointedCtired DexcitedC解析：从后文 Mary 在沙发上昏昏睡去可知此处是说进了家门后， Mary 如此精疲力竭甚至连走进自己卧室的力气都没有了。故选C。10Afloor BchairCbed DcouchD解析：从下一段“She couldnt _ her head and her body on the couch” 可知 Jim 是把妻子安顿在沙发上，让她睡一会儿。故选D。11Agr
95、eeted BsmiledCcalled DcriedC解析：“幸运” 站在那里注视着 Mary, 当 Mary 呼喊它的时候， 它并没有凑上前去， 这使得 Mary很难过， 此处用 greet (问候)不妥， 应是 Mary 招呼“幸运”到跟前去。故选C。12Asleep BpainCdisappointment DangerA解析：上文讲 Mary 非常疲劳， 下文有“She fell asleep” 和“When Mary woke” 这些信息， 由此可知此处是说“但很快睡意袭来”。故选A。13Ashake BmoveCraise DcontrolB解析：依据后文“幸运” 把自己最珍爱的
96、所有“宝贝”都给心爱的女主人搬来给她盖上可知此处应是讲由于她被这么多东西“盖”住了， 所以她感觉到在沙发上，头和身体动弹不得。若用raise和head搭配，raise the head含有“look up”的意思， 即抬起头往上看， 同时也无法同后面的body搭配， 不妥。故选B。14Ahard BworriedCheavy DnervousC解析：因为身上压了这么多东西， 所以她感觉很沉很闷热。故选C。15Acaused BsawCsolved DrealizedD解析：根据语境， 是“当她认识到问题出在哪儿时， 不由得开心地笑了起来”。故选D。16Ashowing BreturningCt
97、aking DbringingD解析：她睡着的时候， 这条悲伤的狗一次又一次地跑到地下室， 把自己最珍爱的所有“宝贝” 都给心爱的女主人搬来了。take 意为“带去， 拿走”， 指把某物从说话者所在地拿走， bring 的意思正相反， 故C不妥。D符合句意。17Aclosed BprotectedCcovered DburiedC解析：因为“幸运” 的这一行为表明了它对 Mary 的爱， 所以作者把“它用玩具把女主人盖了起来” 说成了“它用爱把女主人盖了起来”， 写得含蓄巧妙。故选C。18AInstead BHoweverCCertainly DSurelyA解析：Mary 不再想着会死的事，
98、 而是和“幸运” 重新开始了新的生活。在讲完不做某件事后， 若紧接着讲做另一特定的事情， 常用 instead, however 没有此用法。故选A。19Ahiking BwalkingCrunning DgoingB解析：Mary 和“幸运” 每天都一起出去散步， 走得越来越远。每天跑或徒步旅行不合常理或不合Mary 的身体状况。B符合文意。20Aremains BbecomesCturns DseemsA解析：从全文来看， 应是“幸运” 以前最爱 Mary, 视她为自己最珍贵的“宝贝”， 现在每天待在一起， “而 Mary 依然是它最珍贵的宝贝”。因为自始至终是这样， 所以用B或C不正确，
99、 只有A项表示状态的始终如一。 语法填空As an old English saying goes，“honesty is the best policy” It is more than an old clich(陈词滥调), but 1_ good way to live your lifeFirst, honesty is the 2_(easy) choice that we can make When people get caught in lies, it always costs them something Many relationships are destroyed b

102、oice that we make each day The choice is 10_(you) What will you choose?1a解析：考查冠词的用法。此处表示泛指，“一种好方法”。2easiest解析：考查形容词的用法。句意：诚实是我们能做的最容易的选择。前面的the也决定只能用easiest。3freedom解析：考查词性转换。此处是作gives的宾语，故用名词形式。freedom n自由。 4will pay解析：考查动词的时态。sooner or later是迟早的意思，所以该空用一般将来时态。5truly解析：考查词性转换。修饰形容词应当用副词。 6standing解析：考查非谓语动词。此空在there were people后面，说明要用非谓语，根据动词与people的逻辑关系确定用现在分词standing。7who/that解析：考查定语从句。定语从句先行词为人“person”，关系词在定语从句中作主语，应用who/that引导。8to believe解析：考查非谓语动词。该空与be likely搭配使用，该用to do形式。9Either解析：考查连词的用法。eitheror表示“要么要么”。10yours解析：考查代词的用法。“这就是你的选择”，用名词性物主代词作表语，代表“your choice”。
