46、娃我可爱的弟弟Richard。但后来Richard发高烧差点夭折,经医院抢救得生,这使我更加珍爱我的“人娃娃”。 1. A细节理解题。虽然表面上是有了一个娃娃,但事实上是有了亲弟弟。2. D词义猜测题。从该句前半部分中的 “hopeless”, “pitiful”, and “dying”可知该词意思是“令人害怕的”。虽然其他三个词均表示消极含义,但只有fearful表示“我”害怕“弟弟”离“我”而去。3. C推理判断题。从第四段最后两句As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears. Id never seen him cry before.可知父亲感到十分伤心。4. C主旨大意题。第一段一开始便定义我的弟弟Richard是一件特殊的圣诞礼物。虽然弟弟Richard差点离我们而去,但后来还是得以平安回家,因此圣诞节并不悲惨。B和D选项外延过大,此段材料只是截取生活中的一个片段,并非整个和Richard一起生活的全部。- 9 - 版权所有高考资源网
