765、AABDB46-50 CACDB51-55 ACABD36. C seat 解析:关键名词就在后面waiting room。这个词break有可能选,但是break之前一定要很紧张才行,这里老汉没有紧张。37. D telling 解析:护士对一个老汉能做的动作,最符合逻辑的是telling,告诉。 promising 表示许诺,有可能选,再看宾语就可以排除,at least 40 minutes 没有一个承诺是这样子的,我保证你至少要等四十分钟,不是承诺这是诅咒。38. B before解析:在医生诊断他之前要等待。39. C look at 解析:看动作的发出者,一个焦急的老汉会做的动作,
766、肯定是look at 看手表这个选项。 40. D not41. A turn up 解析:词组,表示“出现”的意思。这里要注意破折号表示解释说明,我不是很忙,因为我的病人在appointed hour 里面没有出现。appoint 这个词除了任命的意思,还有约时间的意思。B. show off 是“炫耀”的意思。42. A needed 解析:考察动词搭配,用排除法。B forget是“忘记”,他忘记了回去吃饭这样的事情,不算一个appointment。C agree to do是“同意做某件事情”,在文中没人提要求,所以不存在同意不同意。D happen to do“碰巧做某事”。 43.
767、 B wife 解析:名词找重复,这里重复再后面,刚做的时候放一放,第五段的第一句出现了marriage,表示他们俩曾经有一段,那么选老婆这个选项。44. D there解析:she had been there 表示的是她已经在那个nursing home 里面有一段时间了,有难度,其他几个选项的中文意思比较模棱两可, A. late 要迟到的是老头子,不是他老婆。 B. well 她老婆身体很健康。 C.老婆曾经在他身边。45. B worried解析:根据词义辨析。lonely“孤独的”,worried 是“焦虑的,担心的”的意思,doubtful“怀疑的”,hungry“饥饿的”。46
768、. C no longer解析:结合后文,49空那句话给出了很好的对应。neither 表示否定2者。47. A recognize解析:之前见过,现在认不出来。48. C surprised 解析:表示惊讶。选项moved干扰度比较大,需要对全文的态度进行把握,文中进行到这里并没有很明显的作者的正面态度出现,证据就在于他的那个问句:你知道她不认识你,还是每天早上要去陪她?这句话显然不是一个正面态度的体现,而真正的态度转正的地方在倒数第二段,他忍住泪水,所以这里不能选moved这个表示正面态度的词语。49. D still解析:表示状态的持续,B. then 表示时间先后,C. thus 表示
769、因果。50. B tear解析:关键在前面的动词hold back忍住,忍回去。忍回去的只有泪水。51. A realize解析:realize表示主观意识到。52. C acceptance解析:真爱就是对于所有一切的接受。本题点明了文章的主旨,老人不管妻子患病与否都始终不离不弃,所以是接受了一切,无论好坏。53. A necessarily 解析:这个词的意思是必要地,这句话的意思是最幸福的人并不一定是一个拥有所有最好东西的人。54. B make解析:考查动词和名词的搭配, make the best of充分利用,就是说他们可以没有最好的东西,但是他们充分利用了他们所拥有的东西。C选项
770、favor 不能选,因为表示的意思是偏好,在这里没有比较爱人认得你还是不认得你,所以不选。55. D Life解析:生活并不是要经历暴风雨,而是要学会苦中作乐。Passage 3(10辽宁)When I first entered university, my aunt, who is an English professor, gave me a new English dictionary.

My aunt even goes so far as to 48_ that a Chinese “equivalent” can never give you the _49_ meaning of a word in English! _50_ , she insisted that I read the definition(定义) of a world in a monolingual dictionary _51_ I wanted to get a better understanding of its
774、 meaning. _52_, I have come to see what she meant. Using a monolingual dictionary for learners has helped me in another important way. This dictionary uses a(n) 53 number of words, around 2, 000, in its definitions. When I read these definitions, I am 54 exposed to(接触)the basic words and learn how t
775、hey are used to explain objects and ideas. 55 this, I can express myself more easily in English.36.Aworried Bsad Csurprised Dnervous 这是一篇记叙文,作者主要描写自己从最初接触英英词典的惊异,到习惯使用英英词典以及使用英语词典的好处。36.C 。 通读全文可知,作者是一个中国大学生,中国人学英语,尤其是初学者习惯使用英汉词典。当作者看到英英词典的时候,他感到“吃惊”。37.ABecause BAlthough CUnless DIf37.B。前后两句在意义上是让步
776、关系,所以用although引导让步状语从句。而A项because引导原因状语从句;Unless和if引导条件状语从句。38.Abut Bso Cor Dand38.A。此空格处是一个并列连词,连接前后两句。而前后两句之间存在的是转折关系,所以用but。39.Adifficult Binteresting Cambiguous Dpractical39. A。最初用英英词典,不习惯,所以作者感觉用起来“很难difficult”。interesting是“有趣味的意思”,根据下文not fully understand the meaning不可能是这个答案;ambiguous是“不明确的”;p
777、ractical是“实用的”,这两个词也不符合语境。40.Athus Beven Cstill Dagain40.C。句子中有否定词not,有副词fully,所以用still,表示“仍然不能够完全”的意思。41.Anew Bfamiliar Cearlier Dordinary41.B。be used to 表示“习惯,对作者来说习惯了双语词典,或者说是英汉词典。这里指双语词典的使用对他来说是熟悉。 42.Aexplained Bexpressed Cdescribed Dcreated42.A。此句是一个in which引导的定语从句,其中words是主语,根据常识在词典中单词的意思是被“解
778、释出来”的,所以用explained。43.Aoffered Bagreed Cdecided Dhappened43.C。我真想知道我姑妈为什么决定这么为难我。其他三个词虽然都跟动词不定式,但是在这里意思都不恰当。 44.Aimagine Brecommend Cpredict Dunderstand44.D。过去不理解,经过一段时间后,“明白了understand”;imagine是“想象”的意思;recommend是“推荐”的意思;predict是“预测”的意思。45.Anatural Bbetter Ceasier Dconvenient45.B。此句中monolingual dict
779、ionaries和bilingual dictionaries比较,A和D项没用比较级,better强调更好,更实用,而easier则不可能。46 Aat best Bin fact Cat times Din case46.B。常见的情况是实际上两种语言之间的两个词没有完全的对应。in fact表示“实际上,事实上”。at best是“至多;充其量”;at times是“有时”;in case是“万一,以防”,显然A、C、D项不合语境。47.Awords Bnames Cideas Dcharacters47.A。词典上重点的内容应该是单词。 48.Ahope Bdeclare Cdoubt
780、 Dtell48.B。我姑妈甚至还声称汉语意思决不能给出一个英语单词的确切意思。49.Aexact Bbasic Ctranslated Dexpected49.A。前面的a Chinese equivalent和the meaning of a word in English对应,所表明还是对应不准确的问题,所以用exact。 50.ARather BHowever CTherefore DInstead50. C。此空后面的句子和前面表示的是一种“因果”关系,所以用therefore。51.Awhen Bbefore Cuntil Dwhile51. A。表示“当时候”,用when引导时间
781、状语从句。而before通常指“在之前”;until指“直到时候”;while指“在的同时”。52.ALargely BGenerally CGradually DProbably52. C。该句的谓语have come to see是表示“变化过程”,所以用gradually表示“渐渐地”。53.Aextra Baverage Ctotal Dlimited53. D。从后面的around 2,000可知词典中用于解释词义的词是限制在2,000左右。54.Arepeatedly Bnearly Cimmediately Danxiously54. A。在有限的范围内,查阅阅读释义的话,就会反
782、复接触基本词汇、学会这些词汇怎样用来解释事物和观点,所以用repeatedly表示“反复地,经常地”, 55.AAccording to BIn relation to CIn addition to DBecause of55. D。后面主句部分I can express myself more easily in English.表达的是结果,此处表达的应该是原因,说明使用这种词典所带来的好处。(10广东)Every country has its own culture.Even though each country uses doors. .Doors many have 21 fu

821、)I met Mrs. Neidl in the ninth grade on a stage-design team for a play and she was one of the directors. Almost instantly I loved her. She had an Unpleasant voice and a direct way of speaking, 36 she was encouraging and inspiring. For some reason, she was impressed with my work and me. Mrs. Neidl wo
822、uld ask me for my 37 . She wanted to know how I thought we should 38 things. At first I had no idea how to answer because I knew 39 about stage design! But I slowly began to respond to her 40 . It was cause and effect: She believed I had opinions, so I began to 41 them. She trusted me to complete th
823、ings, so I completed them perfectly. She loved how 42 I was, so I began to show up to paint more and more. She believed in me, so I began to believe in myself. Mrs. Neidls 43 that year was, Try it. We can always paint over it 44 !I began to take 45 . I had been so afraid of failing but suddenly ther
824、e was no failing-only things to be 46 upon. I learned to dip my brush into the paint and 47 create something. The shy, quiet freshman achieved success that year. I was 48 in the programas Student Art Assistant because of the time and effort Id put in. It was that year that I 49 I wanted to spend the
825、 rest of my life doing stage design. Being on that stage-design team 50 Mrs. Neidl changed me completely. Not only was I stronger and more competent than I had thought, but I also 51 a strong interest and a world I hadnt known existed. She taught me not to 52 what people think I should do: She taugh

A. accessible B. enjoyable C. possible D. favorable36.B考察连词及句子理解。前面unpleasant voice 和 direct way of speaking是消极意向,后面encouraging 和 inspiring是积极意向,因此需填转折连词,四个选项中A表并列,C表结果,D表原因,只
830、有B选项yet表转折。37.A 考察名词及篇章理解。第二段第二句话“她想知道我认为我们该怎样处理事情”直接提示了这个空应该选观点opinion这个词. 第二段倒数第四句话中也出现了这个词从而验证了其正确性。B. impression 印象、C. information 信息、D. intention 意图均不符合题意。38.C 考察动词及篇章理解。根据文章主线选择“处理”事情。考纲要求考生掌握handle 的两种意思,名词是“柄、把”,动词是“处理”,这里考察后者。A, 做、创造 B 保持 D改变 均不符题意。39.D 考察代词及句子理解。开始我不知如何回答是因为我对舞台设计“一无所知”。 k
831、now nothing about sth 对某事一无所知。40.A 考察名词及篇章理解。解题关键词是本句的 ”respond 回答、响应”, 线索是第二段第一句中的 “ask 提问”及第四句中的“answer 回答”, 因此这里填 “question 问题”这个词。BD选项是评论,C是解释,不符题意。41.D 考察动词及篇章理解。本句的them指代opinions 。form opinion形成观点 。hold opinion持有某种观点,form 是个变化的状态,hold是个持续的状态,根据文意推断作者开始并没有观点,由于她相信我有观点所以我形成了观点,强调形成这个过程,另外Begin t
832、o后接有变化感的词,故选form不选hold. B. follow 遵照,C .evaluate评估与题意差别较大。42.C 考察形容词及句子理解。解题线索在后半句 “so I began to show up to paint more and more ” 作者做的事情变多是Mrs. Neidl信任的结果,说明我是个可信赖(reliable)的人,C选项符合题意。其他三个选项happy 高兴的 lively活泼的和 punctual 准时的都不能表达出这种合理的因果关系。另外迷惑性较大的lively通常用来形容物。 43. B考察名词及句子理解。引号里是一句鼓励性质的话,而且前面“that
833、 year”也是线索,说明这话是她的motto座右铭。迷惑性较大的C选项saying是谚语的意思,往往是人们长期形成的对生活及经验的总结,强调群体性及时间性,故不合适,message 信息,suggestion 建议,不合题意。44.D 考察副词及篇章理解。本题难度较大,解题关键词是介词“over”,表覆盖。选择later 可以理解为“如果没有画好,稍后可以再画一次覆盖在之前的画上。” more更多, Instead 代替, 不合题意。迷惑性最大的是again.表示“再一次、又一次”但是放在这里与over意思重复,paint over it later相当于 paint it again, 故
834、不选A。45.D 考察名词及篇章理解。take risks 固定搭配,冒险。通读全文发现作者是开始很不自信,第四段开头也提示了作者“shy” ,“quiet”,因此动笔画画对他来说是个冒险,是自我突破的过程,文章最后一段也提到了take chances冒险,因此选D。take steps是采取措施、步骤的意思,与文章主题不搭,control 和 charge 都有控制的意思,不合题意。46.A 考察动词及句子理解。Improve upon 改进。线索是本段开头的座右铭“试试吧,我们永远可以重画一次。”因此不存在失败,只存在改进。Act upon按照、对起作用,look upon 看待、考虑,r
835、eflect upon 考虑、回顾,均不符题意。47.C 考察副词及篇章理解。本段主要描写了作者从不敢做到敢做的过程,根据前文提示作者曾很不自信,后来在Mrs. Neidl的鼓励下自信地拿起了画笔,因此选confidently. A easily 容易的。作者超越自我的过程并不容易。B carefully 小心地。创作并不是个小心翼翼的过程。D Proudly 骄傲地。文章中没有任何体现。48.B 考察动词。Be recognized as“被公认为、被承认”。 Introduce 介绍、引入,be identified as“ 被确定是”,有验证身份的意思,be considered as
836、“被认为、被当作”。其中 be recognize as 有“被大家承认、被普遍接受”的意思,表意更准确。49.C 考察动词。解题关键词是“want ”。作者意识到自己想要的是什么,所以用realized. 迷惑项是decided 决定。可以说决定要什么,但不可以说决定想什么,因为想法是不可控制的。Confirm 证实 acknowledge 承认,与题意差别较大。50.A 考察介词。Being with sb 与某人在一起。这里不能选of是因为全文第一句话,Mrs. Neidl是“ one of the directors”,所以不能说是她的团队。Below 和 by 搭配错误。51.B 考

1138、son还不知道发生什么事情的时候,便被一声雷鸣震醒。此处before表示“还来不及就”。22. D “暴风雨直袭他的两层木屋”,暴风雨应该是从房屋上方袭来,故用over。23. C 根据后文“他打开通向地下室的门”可以判断Sibson冲下楼梯的目的是“查看一下”到底发生了什么事情。24. D 他打开地下室的门,火焰从里面喷发出来。此处explode out意为break out(突然爆发)。25. A 根据此句中“因为这个房间有一个通向屋外的独立的楼梯”,因此他当时感觉应该是“安全的”。26. B 当他正想通过那个楼梯出去的时候,却被一堵火墙给阻拦(stop),故用B。27. B 根据前面“t
1139、hree kilometres”及后文“so well hidden by trees”可知他的房子应该是离开主干道有3公里。故用介词off。28. C 由于离开主干道3公里且被树所遮蔽,因此呼救是没有结果的(fruitless),故选C。29. A 突然他听到了像烟雾警报器之类的声音。strike ones ears“传进某人的耳朵;突然听到”。30. D 根据后文Huggons拨打911可知,他是带上了他的电话。故选D。31. A Huggons应该是朝着他所听到的声音方向而去。故选A。32. B 警察应该是警告Huggons不要进入Sibson的房子。故选enter。33. C Hugg
1140、ons说他不能听到Sibson的拼命叫喊。应使用scream。34. A Huggons进入房子,但由于烟雾很大,他很快不得不跑回来“喘口气”。此处catch ones breath意为“喘口气”,故答案选A。35. D 在又一次打算进入房子的尝试之后,Huggons最后还是放弃了,绕着圈子回来了。此处应使用attempt(尝试)。36. B 由于烟雾很大,Huggons应该是摸索着绕着从房子里面出来的,故选B。37. C 当风将烟雾吹得足够的分散,以致他能够看到Sibson。此处part表示将分开,因此不能用open,因此答案选C。38. D 他用电筒往丛林中照。此处shine the fl
1141、ashlight为固定说法,意为“用电筒照”。故选D。39. C Huggons将梯子搭在房子上,将Sibson从二楼拽下来。此时二楼房子就要倒了,为了形容动作之快,故用pull。40. D 根据后文Sibson自己所说的话“我当天晚上是一个人。然后我听到了我生命中最美丽的声音,是Huggons。”可知,他对Huggons心存感激。故选D。5.【2012重庆卷】请阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从36-55各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项的标号涂黑。I became a gardener when I was twelve.

1337、t by together.作者对美国梦的全新认识:美国梦不是仅仅实现个人的成功,而是关于我们如何通过共同奋斗都能获得成功。解析:36A。结合文章主旨和上文语境。由此句 “I wanted it and worked toward it like everyone else.”作者过去曾经坚信的美国梦就是大家都在共同的追求中实现个人的成功。separately单独地,个别地;equally相等地;平等地;37B。根据语境和固定短语。由第二段 “a series of unhappy events”,一系列的不幸使得作者的梦想破碎。fall apart崩溃,破碎;fall off 减少;跌落;变
1338、坏;fall over被绊倒;意外地从上跌落;fall out争吵;结果;解散。38D。语义和词组搭配。在穷困潦倒时,作者只得到乡村找个便宜的居所,此处搭配为searchfor 其余均不符。39D。语境和语义。“I had my truck and $56”,因为作者已经到了几乎身无分文的地步,带着身上仅有的56美元,作者只能租下最便宜的花费的住所(some place I could rent)。40 C。根据句意和搭配。作者找到了可以租赁的一个破旧房子,不过要沿着横跨波托马克河的蜿蜒山路向上行走4英里。” a winding mountain road”横跨 “the Potomac Ri
1339、ver”,over在上面,由一边到另一边,其余均不符。41B。由上下文信息和词义。 “a shabby house”这是一个破旧的房子,“full of broken glass and rubbish”到处都是破碎的玻璃碎片和垃圾,所以看出这里早已被遗弃多时,occupied已占用的,在使用的;abandoned被放弃的,被遗弃的 ,其余两项被清空的和被抢劫的语境不符。42C。把握上文语境。作者找到房主租下房子后,“to camp in”必须先进行清理才能住宿,所以作者先清理了房主的一个角落。clear 扫除,使干净;approach接近,走近,靠近; turn旋转;使改变方向;cut剪切;
1340、切成。这三项与语境不符。43A。根据语句间的逻辑关系。尽管当地人对我是一无所知,但是,他们却教我与邻居相处的艺术。很显然是一种转折关系。although尽管;虽然位置应该放在 “The locals knew nothing about me”之前。otherwise否则,不然;for因为,由于。它们都不符合。44D。根据句意和词汇。邻居们教作者应该如何与邻居们相处的艺术。art艺术,技巧;benefit利益,好处;lesson教训,训诫;nature自然;天性;天理;后三项与语境不符。45A。根据句意和词组。“to chat” 邻居们开始停留下来与作者聊天。stick around逗留,停留
1341、;look around骋目四顾;四顾;swing around使转过;turn around使)转身;(使)好转;改变意见。46C。 根据上下文语境解题。文章第一段讲到了“the American Dream,which meant a job, a mortgage (按揭), credit cards, success”,空格后提示“not the one of individual achievement”,可知这是一个不同的(different)American Dream。47A。 根据上下文语境解题。本段前面讲到邻居们教他做邻居的艺术,给他提供了很多帮助,由此可知选neighbo
1342、rliness友善,睦邻友好。其余三项分别意为:幸福;友好,亲切;仁慈,好意。neighborliness侧重指邻里关系。48D。根据上下文语境解题。根据第一段所描述的美国梦的内容“a job, a mortgage (按揭), credit cards, success”,可知作者原来认为这些东西是文明生活必须的(necessary)。其余三项分别意为:野生的,野蛮的,狂野的;真实的;偏僻的,遥远的,均不符合语境。49. A。根据上文提示和语法知识解题。由第二段中“I came upon a shabby house four miles up a winding mountain road
1343、”可知房子在山上,可知选up。50B。根据上下文语境解题。句意:在这个山上,我最珍贵的财产是我和邻居们的关系(relationships)。其余三项分别意为:合作;满意;约会,均不符合语境。51C。 根据上下文语境解题。根据第二段的“I _38_the countryside for some place”可知作者到乡村找地方租住,现在是“I moved back into”,当然是搬回到城里(town)了。其余三项分别意为:现实;社会;生活,均不符合语境。52B。根据句内逻辑关系解题。前面说“many people were having a really hard time”,许多人正过着
1344、相当艰难的生活,可知是失去(losing)了工作和家。creating:创造;offering:提供,明显不符合语境;quitting只能和jobs搭配,不能和homes搭配。53C。根据语法知识解题。本题考查动词词组含义。四个选项分别意为:放进,提交,申请;上交,拐入,告发;让进入,接受,理解,吸入,欺骗;进入,到达,收获,被录取。此处说作者设法租了一个足够大的房子来让一些人住进来,因此选C。get in是主动进入,不符合语境。54B。 根据上文语境和语法知识解题。此处说:如果我们不团结在一起,我们都会流落到住收容所(shelters)的地步。其余三项分别意为:庭院;帐篷;小屋,村舍,均不符
1345、合语境。55D。 根据语法知识和语境解题。句意:美国梦不是关于我能为自己得到什么,而是关于我们所有人如何能够一起度过难关。about后面的从句不缺主语、宾语、表语,因此不选what;也没有是否(whether)的意思;也没有涉及时间问题(when),因此只能选how.2013年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试【辽宁卷】第二节 完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填人空白处的选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑:A little girl lived in a simple and poor house on a hill.

1353、essed 定文体抓主旨:本文是一篇记叙加议论的短文。小女孩住在山上的一座破旧的小房子里,她可以通过花园的篱笆看到对面山上一个有着金色窗子的美丽的房子。于是,稚嫩的童心里就有了一个美丽的梦想:什么时候能住进这所美丽的房子里呢?等女孩稍稍长大后,她骑车到了梦想的房子的前面,她所看到的使她震惊、心碎:心目中金色的窗子原来是普通而又满目灰尘。暮然回首,才发现对面山上自己的房子是那般美丽! 本篇难度:中等。篇章结构:段落关键词大意推测第一部分(para.1)a little girl, poor house on a hill, a small garden, a wonderful house wi
1354、th shining golden windows, desired to live such a house住在山上的小女孩看到对面山上的有金色窗子的美丽的房子。虽然她深爱她的父母和家人,但她是多美渴望能住进这所金色的房子里啊!第二部分(para.2-3)gained some skill and sensibility, allowed her to go, The day was beautiful, across the valley, rode to the golden house, focus on the path, vey disappointed, windows were
1355、 rather dirty女孩渐渐长大了,妈妈答应她在房子周边骑车。她骑上自行车下山直奔对面的金色的房子。但是到了房前,她端详着那条小路和房子的窗户,这才发现窗户是如此地普普通通而又脏兮兮。第三部分(para.4)Heart-broken, amazing, There on the other side of the valley was a little house and its windows were golden. She had been living in the golden house filled with love and care.眼前的景色让她失望且伤心。但回头处,
1356、却看到了另一番美景:对面的山上,是自己住的金色的房子。原来自己一直置身于自己梦想的金色的房子里,享受这家人的关爱!解析:36C。 利用语境解题。本题的提示词是usually, 根据语境这里应该表示一个小女孩的个人习惯,句子的意思是:通常她会在那个小花园里玩耍。37B。根据句间逻辑关系解题。主句是she desired to live in such a house, 从句是she loved her parents and her family, 主句和从句的关系应该是让步关系,虽然她深爱着自己的父母和家人,但还是渴望住在那栋房子里。所以选择Although。38A。利用语境解题。desire
1357、d to live in such a house和_ all day about how wonderful and exciting之间是并列关系。解题关键在于desired, 既然渴望,就会有梦想,所以选择dreamed。 dream about doing sth 梦想做,所以选择dreamed。39C。 根据上下文语境解题。本题的解题关键在于介词about 后面的宾语从句how wonderful and exciting _ must be to live there.这个句子如果用陈述句型表达应该是:_ must be wonderful and exciting to live
1358、 there. 经分析可知,本题考查的是it做形式主语,代替后面的不定时to live there。鉴于此,答案为C。40D。 根据下文提示解题。下文提到恳求妈妈之后才被允许骑自行车围着花园转一转,说明小女孩刚刚学会些基本的(basic)技能和识别力,所以选择D。41A。根据生活常识和上下文提示解题。上一段提到desired, dreamed等动词,说明了小女孩渴望的心情,后面有提到 “Her mother finally allowed her to go”,由此可知小女孩“恳请”妈妈答应自己的请求,所以选择A。42B。 根据下文词汇复现解题。下文提到了keeping close to th
1359、e house(在房子周边,附近),说明这里表达的是在花园周围骑车。所以答案是B。43A。根据上下文语境解题。前面提到妈妈答应了小女孩的要求,但是这是有条件的,那就是妈妈坚持(insisting on)要她不要远离自家的房子,不要骑太远。这个答案表明妈妈的态度,所以选择A。44C。根据下文词汇复现解题。上文提到begged her mother for a bike ride, 所以这里应该是表明妈妈对她的要求,不要骑(riding)太远,所以答案选择C。45C。根据上下文语境解题。小女孩早就梦想着一饱花园的美丽,当得到妈妈允许骑车的时候,她心里“确切”地知道她要去哪里。所以答案选择C。46B
1360、。根据生活常识和上下文提示解题。文章的开始就提到A little girl lived in a simple and poor house on a hill. 明确告诉我们小女孩住在山上,所以这里是骑车下山,答案是B。47D。根据下文词汇复现解题。由下段的开始句she got off her bike and put it against the gate post, 可知小姑娘骑车到金色的房子的门口,所以答案为D。48B。根据句间逻辑关系解题。本句的解题关键在于主句中的谓语focused on the path和从句谓语got off the bike之间的逻辑关系。先下车再专心研究/看
1361、,由此可知要选的从属连词为引导时间状语从句的,但是got of f her bike 为瞬间动词,而while引导的时间状语从句的谓语动词应该是延续性的,所以否定C答案,选择B。49. C。根据固定搭配解题。get to 到达;introduce to 介绍给;lead to 通向; move to 朝移动。本句要表达的是道路与房子的关系,应该是这条路通向那所房子,所以选择C。50D。根据上下文语境解题。上句提到她focused on the path and then on the house itself, 说明她仔细观察了这条道路和那所房子。仔细观察后应该有所发现,这里是指小女孩亲眼见到
1362、的一切,所以选择D。51C。根据句间逻辑关系解题。前面说到she was very disappointed和下面提到very dirty,这些都是选择本题答案的依据,既然disappointed, 就说明这所房子远没有她当初想象得好,很一般,很普通。所以选择C。52D。根据上下文语境解题。上段提到了小女孩disappointed, 本句中又有heart-broken,由此可推断小女孩很伤心和难过(sad),所以选择D。53A。根据下文提示解题。下文提到There on the other side of the valley可知这里指“小女孩转过身,回头看”,所以选择A。54. D。根据上下
1363、文语境解题。下文提到There on the other side of the valley was a little house and its windows were golden. 这是小女孩回头所看到的的景象,所以选择D。55.C。根据生活常识和上下文提示解题。这里指小女孩通过自己的亲身经历明白了一个道理,原来自己一直住在一座充满了关爱的金色的房子里。也就是她意识到了这一点,所以答案选择C。2013年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试【山东卷】第二节:完形填空(共20小题;每小题1分,满分20分)阅读下面短文,从短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,

1373、后来开始改变,并慢慢的有了朋友。态度转变的另一个重要原因是在敬老院做兼职时,与一个老人成朋友,帮助老人,代替她的女儿,最终自己也得到快乐。第三部分(para.4)care about other people more than about myself很高兴自己的改变,喜欢现在的自己,愿意帮助别人。解析:36B。 把握上下文的语境。根据前一句话,可知作者现在和过去不一样了,先考虑别人再考虑自己,所以用before, 在为自己着想之前先为别人着想,故选B。37C。 利用原词复现解题。根据文章第二句“in the past two years I have really changed.”,可推
1374、知,我现在是一个与之前不同的人了,故选C。38D。把握上下文的语境。根据文章第二句“in the past two years I have really changed.”,可推知,本段要讲的是,我的改变发生在什么时候,故选D。39C。根据生活常识推理手段。上大学的目的,就是为了得学位,所以作者一开始,就只是为了拿学位,故选C。40A。把握上下文的语境。由上句“I thought I was smarter than everyone else,”,可知,作者自恃清高,看不起别人,因而也不与人说话交流,故选A。41B。 把握上下文的语境。根据前一句话“I hardly ever talked
1375、 to anyone else”,可知作者没有朋友,很孤独,故选B。42C。 利用概括词复现解题。根据下文“I started asking people around me how they were doing, and if they were having trouble I offered to help”,可知作者这样做,不是A争论,不是B游戏,而是一个尝试,D变化与前边动词不搭配,故选C。43B。 根据词汇的意义解题。根据前一句“if they were having trouble”可推知,作者是愿意提供帮助的,故选B。44D。 根据上下文词意复现解题。前文中出现转变diffe
1376、rent, 这里说的一大跨越,与前文相符,故选D。45C。把握句子结构解题。这是一个由and连接的并列句,前后都是一个简单句,后半句中表达“其中有两人”,所以用two of them. 本句中如果前边没有and,那么就该选D whom,是指人的关系代词。故选C。46A。 利用概括词复现解题。前文说作者是生活态度的转变,而不是B兴趣爱好,C希望,D运气的改变,故选A。47A。 根据生活常识和文化背景的推理手段。作者去敬老院做兼职,与老人之间成了朋友,而不可能成为B伙伴,C向导,D客人,故选A。48B。 把握句内的逻辑关系。作者每次去看望她,她都把作者当成她的女儿了,所以她应该是高兴的,故选B。4

1402、ero从父亲那里学到的很多,将伴随自己一生;是父亲,是老师,是朋友,更是自己心目中的英雄。16C。前面的句子提到父亲的手上满是老茧很粗糙,推测他的职业是农民最合适,更重要的是,下文中说到了父子在田里摘棉花,更加印证了是农民的判断。四个选项的意思分别是老师,园丁,农民,杂货商。17D。根据句意,既然发生了严旱灾,那么用burning来修饰desert最合适不过了。A,B,C三个选项的意思分别是暴风雨的,生动的,消失的,均与句意不符,排除。18A。fill an order是一个固定短语,意思是“交付订货”,此句的意思是,我跟父亲正在田里摘玉米,以便交付杂货店定的货。19B。此题需要结合后面一句话
1403、去做,后一句的意思是“然而这一次,这个过程进展不快”,说明前面的二十分钟是“通常情况”下所需要的时间,因此应该用副词normally。20A。事情进展如何,常用动词go,而不用begin, occur, change。21B。平时只需要二十分钟,可是这次,四十分钟过后,还没结束,“仍然”还需要二十分钟。其他三个选项均不能表达此意。22C。由于这次摘玉米用的时间太长,太辛苦,所以“我”很泄气也很“生气”,这个可以结合后面“我”说的话来推断出来:重重的摔篮子,然后说“如果杂货店还要那他们可以自己摘玉米”,这些都可以印证“我”很生气,而不是A吃惊,B紧张,D害怕,23D。看到“我”生气的样子,爸爸“
1404、笑”着安慰我。24B。本句意思是:我们每人“仅仅”需要摘十打,然后我们就结束了。be done是固定用法,意思是“结束,做完了”。25A。本句意思是:无论他“遇到”什么难题,他都不会放弃。四个选项的意思分别是:遇到,抚养,解出(难题),考虑,只有选项A符合句意。26C。本句的意思是:这次干旱的灾难性影响在全国都能感受得到。这是坏事,所以应该用unfortunately. 其他三个选项的意思分别是:谢天谢地;满怀希望地;很奇怪,均与句意不符。27D。句子的前半部分说旱灾对于每个人都是一种挑战,后半部分说父亲保持乐观,两者之间显然是一种转折关系,应该用连词but。28C。根据文章的主题可知,父亲对
1405、待生活持乐观态度,乐观的人会感激生活和所拥有的一切。上句Dad remained optimistic提示,在艰难的日子里,父亲“依然乐观”,“继续”感恩已有的东西,如健康和盘中食物。选项A“似乎”,选项B“似乎”,选项D“目的是”不合主题和句意。29B。句子意思是:就是在那时,我才开始“感激”父亲以及他引导我们走过艰难岁月的信念。四个选项的意思分别是:面对 感激 检查 质问,只有选项B符合句意。30A。这句话是本段落的主题句,从下文可以看出,“父亲”对于家庭无私的风险已经对子女无私的爱,所以选择love是最合适的。其它三个选项的意思分别是:自豪,友谊,诚实,均不符合句意。31A。句子的意思是
1406、:父亲每天工作很长时间来“养家”,所以应该选择support。其他三个选项的意思分别是:安置,开始,使有印象,均不符合句意。32B。句意为:他总是把我们的幸福放在他自己的“前面”,而且。33A。长时间工作之后,“尽管”很累,也从不忘记在我参加比赛的时候为我打气加油。“累”和“给我打气加油”之间是转折关系,所以应该用in spite of。其它三个选项的意思分别是:在的条件下,在的控制下,取代,均不合句意。34C。句子的意思是:他的爱和无私激励着我更加富有同情心和“更体谅人”,把别人放在前面考虑。解题关键是“putting others first”,这其实就是对considerate的解释。3
1407、5D。句中的I have learned from you 是一个定语从句,空处就是它所修饰先行词,从句中的谓语动词learned缺少宾语,空处就是它的宾语,这样就是learn from you,从四个选项中找一个词填到这个省略号中做宾语,lessons是最合适的,意思是“我从你那里学习到的生活上的一些经验教训”。其它三个选项的意思分别是:历史,箴言,模式,放到句中均不符合句意。I 语言知识及应用(共两节,满分45分)第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从115各题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑Number sen

A man was trying to take a photo of a crow(乌鸦)that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not 7 until th

The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was 10 with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest
1411、 until all the men were 11 .It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were 12 able to fool the crow.How good is a humans number sense? Its not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a 13 group. Bu

Human beings are born with this abi
1416、lity; many animals are, too. the bird knows the 5 C between two and three.数字感是辨别数字改变的能力。动物和人类一样,与生俱来都具有这样的能力:鸟类可以识别两和三的区别。第二部分(para.2)experiment showed a birds 6 A number sense. it was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were 12 D able to fool the crow.一项实验证明,鸟类具有数字感:
1417、鸟类对于小的数字有数字感,对于大数字则不太好:五个人时,只有四个人离开时,乌鸦终于被搞糊涂了。第三部分(para.3)How good is a humans number sense? .not very good.

1418、y is not much better than a crows结论:数字感是人类和很多动物共同具有的能力,人类的这种能力不比乌鸦更强。【答案解析】1. C。根据下文的“remove one/two”语义提示可知,这里是把数字发生变化;四个选项分别为:A“上升”,B“图案”,C“改变”,D“趋势”,由此可知本句含义为“数字感是分辨数字变化的能力”,故C为正确答案。2. B。根据上下文的语境可知,分别说到“人类与生俱来具有这种能力(分辨数字变化的能力)”和“很多鸟类也有很好的数字感。”,运用逻辑推断可知,这里表示这是“令人惊讶的是”,四个选项分别为:A“重要的是”,B“令人惊讶的是”,C“令人
1419、失望的是”,D“幸运的是”;所以答案为B。3. D。根据上文第一句的“recognize”和下文的“knows the 5 ”语义提示可知,这是这二个词的同义词复现,本句句义为:如果一个鸟窝里有四颗鸟蛋,你拿走一个,鸟儿就会发现。A“生存下来”,B“关心”,C“孵(蛋)”均不符合语境。4. A。根据常识判断,这里要表达的意思是:如果取走两颗鸟蛋时,鸟类在通常情况下会离开(飞走)。四个选项分别为:A“通常,一般情况下”,B“真诚地”,C“随意地”,D“故意地,有意地”。5. C。根据上文说到的“拿走一个和二个鸟蛋时,鸟的反应和表现”的语义提示可知,这些都是属于difference的范畴。而且这里
1420、的difference与第二句中的change形成同义词复现的关系;四个选项分别为:A“距离”,B“范围”,C“不同,区别”,D“间隙(时段)”。本句句义为:这说明鸟类知道二和三的区别。6. A。根据上下文的语义提示可知,这里要表达的意思是:另一个有意思的实验也显示了鸟类的这种令人惊奇的数字感。故答案为A。amazing与第四句空格2“Surprisingly(令人吃惊或惊奇的是)”构成同义词的复现关系。7. D。根据下文第十一空前“not return to the nest”的语义提示可知答案,四个选项的含义分别为:A“放松”,B“恢复”,C“反应”,D“返回,归还”。本句句义为:这只鸟直
1421、到那个人离开那座塔之后才离开。事实上这里的return与上句中的left形成反义词的复现关系。8. C。根据上下文的语境可知,这个人第一种方法行不通,所以这里再用另一方法,由此运用逻辑推断可知,这里要表达的意思是:这个人有(或想出)了一个主意,四个选项的含义分别为:A“失望”,B“借口”,C“主意,想法”,D“解释”。根据语境,下文讲了他的具体做法。A、B和D都不符合,C为正确答案:先有了想法或主意,然后是具体的行为。9. C。根据上下文的语境可知,他们只是在做实验,根据常识并运用逻辑推断可知他们不是要抓(catch)乌鸦。其他三项A“愚弄”,B“伤害”,D“杀死”均不太符合语境。10. B。
1422、根据上下文的语义提示可知,本句讲了实验的进展:他们又先后用三个人和四个人重复做了实验。并在下句交代了实验的结果:但是乌鸦都是等到所有人(离开)后才回巢。四个选项的含义分别为:A“报道”,B“重复”,C“设计”,D“通过”。根据语境, 11B。根据语义提示可知,gone与上文(本段)的left,return,left,left多次构成同义词或反义词的复现关系。所以答案选B项。句意为表示两次实验的结果:但是乌鸦都是等到所有人(离开)后才回巢。故答案为B“离开”。其他选项的含义分别为:A“感到困惑”,C“感到很累”,D“喝醉了酒”。12D。根据上下文语境并运用逻辑推断可知,本句以强调句的形式交代了,
1423、最后的一次实验及实验结果:直到五个人进入到塔中,只有四个人离开时,他们才最终把乌鸦给搞糊涂了/愚弄了乌鸦。其他错误选项的含义分别为:A“逐渐地”,B“幸运地”,“奇怪地”。13B。根据本段语境并结合常识可知,前两句在说:人类的数字感觉也不是非常好。再根据大语境,全文一直在讲,对于鸟类在小数字变换时的数字分辨能力的实验。显然可以推出本句句义为:例如,当从一个很小的一组东西中拿走一些时,十四个月大的婴儿几乎总是能够注意到(这个变化)。故答案为B。其他错误选项的含义分别为:A“单一的”,B“当地的”,D“新的”。 这里的small与以上的数字均形成具体与概括的复现关系。14. D。根据语义提示可知,
1424、这里的often与第三句中的almost形成近义词复现关系。四个选项的含义分别为:A“很少”,B“临时”,C“只有”,D“常常”。根据语境与行文逻辑,本句句义为:但是当数字超过三或者四时,婴儿们通常会被搞糊涂。15. C。根据上文的语义提示可知,这里的ability与首段的ability形成相同词的复现关系。文章末段与首段开甩语义照应上的前后照应的关系。四个选项的含义分别为:A“视力,看见”,B“本质,天性,内在”,C“能力”,D“信仰,相信”。本段为结论段,根据语境,本句句义为:(好像数字感是我们与世界上的许多动物都具备的能力,而且)我们人类的这种能力不比乌鸦更强。【重庆卷】BIt is e

1431、。坚持一周五次三十分钟的锻炼会大有好处。49C。根据下文“find yourself blaming work pressures or an unknown future”可知这里人的情感为unhappy, 表示不快乐,不高兴的心理,所以选择C。50D。根据下文的“like a new personal running record or a better body shape”可知这里是通过锻炼来改善情绪,由此推知D项正确。51A。本句中后面的内容有两个1)一个个人跑步纪录 2) 更好的体型。也就是进行锻炼要有明确的(clear)目标,另外,下句的particular goal(特定的目标
1432、)也在提示这层意思,由此推断A正确。52C。“锻炼强身”这是人人都知道的事实,身体好了,信心就会得到增强。同时,本句中的a particular goal makes you feel good也可以印证常识的正确性,所以选C。53B。build up ones self-respect 增强个人的自尊心,所以选B。54A。根据下文中的not intensity of your exercise 重要的不是锻炼的强度,可知答案为A。train hard 拼命锻炼。本句意为“你不用太拼命的锻炼来感受运动带来的对身体的好处。”55D。本句意为:关键是锻炼的频率而不是锻炼的强度。下文中的30 min
1433、utes five times per week 所表达的是动作发生的频率。【安徽卷】第二节 完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。If you want to learn a new language, the very first thing to think about is why.

1445、意为:保护;改变;尊重,均不符合语境。42C。 参见上题解析。其余三个选项分别意为:控制;命令;压力,均不符合语境。43A。 根据句内的逻辑关系解题。我们都过着忙碌的(busy)生活并且学习一门语言需要时间。其余三个选项分别意为:快乐的;简单的;正常的,均不符合语境,44B。 根据生活常识及语境解题。学习一门语言当然需要花费时间(time)。其余三项和take搭配分别意为:鼓起勇气;消耗能量;发生。45C。 根据词汇复现解题。前面有“regularly(定期地)”,可知选routine(常规,惯例)。46B。 根据句间的逻辑关系解题。根据前面的take years(花很多年时间)和but(转折
1446、关系),可知选a lot less(花的时间少得多)。47 A。 根据上下文语境解题。根据下文的“Yes, children do learn languages more _48_ than adults”可知,有些人觉得自己太老(old)了。其余三项分别意为:紧张;虚弱;疲劳,均不符合语境。48 B。根据生活常识解题。一般来说,小孩学习语言的确比成年人要快(quickly)。49. A。根据句间的逻辑关系解题。前面说小孩学习语言的确比成年人要快,后面but转折说研究表明你可以在任何年龄(age)学习语言。其余三个选项分别为:速度;距离;学校,均不符合题意。50 A。 根据下文暗示解题。下句
1447、出现了“Well, relax and laugh”,可知人们担心(worry about)他们犯的错误。51D。 利用原词复现解题。前面反复出现learn、learning,可知此处选D。其余三个选项分别意为:唱歌;工作;讨价还价,均不符合语境。52B。 考查固定句型:祈使句+ and。句意:放松并自我解嘲一下自己的错误,这样你就不太可能再次犯这些错误。两句间为顺承关系。53 D。 根据下文暗示解题。根据下文“But with some work and devotion, youll make progress”可知,学习一门新的语言从来都不容易(easy)。其余三项分别意为:令人厌烦的;
1448、困难的,努力的,坚硬的;有趣的,均不符合题意。54 B。 根据句内逻辑关系解题。根据后面的“the positive reaction of some people when you say just a few words”可知,你只说几句话,人们就与积极的反应,因此会amazed(惊奇的)。其余三项分别意为:被责备;被打断;被告知,均不符合题意。55A。 根据句内逻辑关系解题。前面说“the positive reaction of some people”,可知是说一些他们(their)自己的语言的词汇。【上海卷】 Reading ComprehensionSection ADirect

1460、可以减少贫穷;批评者持相反的观点第三部分(para.5)an interconnected world; create a kind of globalization结论:这是一个互相联系的世界,全球化对所有人有利。50. 答案:C解析:第一段是主旨段,由第二段句首的has helped reduce、第三段句首的will benefit from可知这是讲经济全球化的好处,结合第四段句首的Critics take a different view可知这讲弊端,最后一段照应首段,尤其末段的for the benefit of all。由此可见这句句意:经济全球化对所有人有好处吗?51. 答案:
1461、B。解析:由后句的increased wealth可知本句说的是经济全球化增加了财富,也就是减少了贫穷现象。52. 答案:A解析:句意为:它引用了一项研究,该研究显示了在24个发展中国家,由于将当地经济融合进世界经济中,增长的财富促进了教育的改进和寿命的延长。contribute to促进;导致。respond to对作出回应;turn to求助于;owing to由于。53. 答案:D解析:由前句所说的财富的增加,这里应该是收入的增长。54. 答案:C解析:由本句中的will benefit from可知这是说全国化经济的好处。句意为:赞成全球化的人说发展中国家的经济将受益于小型和本国企业得
1462、到的新机遇。55. 答案:B解析:前句笼统说到home-based businesses,本句说到巴西的农民,可见这是举例论证前面的论点。考生记住:“主题句+支撑句”是英语议论文常规模式。56. 答案:C解析:由本句中的now worldwide可见这是进行了今昔对比,现在在全球市场内销售,那么过去只能在本地的露天市场。57. 答案:D解析:由后句中的the poorhave been left behind.可知贫富差距在扩大,故widen(扩大)合适。find找到;explore开发;bridge弥合。58. 答案:B解析:本句是说只有一部分发展中国家实际上受益于融合进世界经济,根据后面的
1463、the poor, unskilled可知这是对比。解题关键是抓住only一词。59. 答案:A解析:前面说全球化会导致贫富差距扩大,然后又说全球化会威胁新出现的市场。可见这是一种递进关系。furthermore而且;therefore因此;however但是;otherwise否则。60. 答案:C解析:本句是说受益于全球化经济的印度手工业者们本来会出口产品,现在很快就会面临激烈的竞争。这里的soon就暗示了前后是一个对比关系。61. 答案:B解析:本句前面说面临激烈的竞争,然后说竞争会让他们实业。out of business实业;out of trouble摆脱麻烦;out of pow
1464、er丧失权力的;out of mind心不在焉,忘却。62. 答案:A解析:本句是说像沃尔玛等大型超市的到来,这些小企业将无能维持下去并将被排挤出局。尤其要注意and后的be crowded out,所填的词应该和它是并列关系。63. 答案:D解析:结合下句所说:科技的进步和更加开放的政策的结合已经创造了一个相互联系的世界。故可推断本句以为全球化不可逆转,即没有回头路。turn back回头,符合句意。64. 答案:D解析:文章综合了对全球化的不同观点,最后说到目前的难题是找到一个可行的方法。agreement协议;prediction预测;outcome结果;challenge挑战,难题。B

A班里的男孩子会拿她开玩笑,
1488、然后就是哄堂大笑。而她也只好眼含泪水地假装看书。joke about 拿开玩笑;care about介意,在乎;forget about忘记;worry about为担忧。根据语境可知选A。37.

1489、A、B、D三项显然都不符合语境。tiny very small。故选C。39. C“我”打算帮助这个女孩与大家融洽相处。文章标题已给出提示。fit in with(与)合得来,适应。40. D根据上文“我”决定帮助小女孩与大家融洽相处,所以“我”必须寻找一个方法。manner做事或行为方式,多指行动的特殊方式或独特的方法;pattern模式,花样,图案;choice选择;way“方式,方法,手段”,可指一般的方法,有时也指个人的方法或方式。因为这里没有谈到什么方法,所以只能用笼统的方法way。41. CSuzy把书打开到火车图片那里。opento“把翻到”,to是介词,表达“到地方”。42.
1490、B根据下文提示“Why, its wonderful”可知,她对火车图的复制,效果非常好,与此题选项中的perfect意思相近。43. D根据后文提示the talent show可知这是一个才艺秀。44. D根据上文可知Suzy在画火车,所以“我”把她画的东西展示给艺术老师看。colour涂色和染色;write书写;carve雕刻;draw画。45. C根据文章内容,这里是老师拿出一张为“才艺秀”做的海报。for意为“为”。46. B由该空前面的more和空后的help两个词可知,老师还需要更多的海报,但老师“没有足够的时间”,所以才请Suzy帮忙制作。47. D艺术老师想让Suzy帮忙制作
1491、一些海报,所以,才艺秀当天应该到处都能看到Suzy制作的海报。48. A才艺秀当天大家都表演了,还要颁发一个特殊的奖项给制作海报的人,因为制作海报原本不是才艺秀的内容。49. A句意:我们一个学生画了这些海报。可以使用paint一词,表示绘画。50. Bso表示“那么,那样”,修饰形容词或副词,也可以使用that,两者意思相近。that wellso well。51. D因为这位同学如此努力地画了这些海报,所以值得奖励。sincenow that/because。52. A因为努力画了这些海报,这位同学值得奖励。prize奖励;rank等级,秩序;rest休息;place地点,位置。53. B
1492、作者意识到Suzy从来没有拥有过什么,这些成就和别人的承认第一次让她意识到自己的重要性。reply回答;realize意识到;remember回忆;regret后悔,遗憾。54. C因为是外来的移民,没有融入大家的生活中,这次活动让大家看到了Suzy拥有的东西。55. A因为Suzy画得好,得到了校长表扬,也得到了大家的认可,所以大家为她鼓掌。clap ones hands鼓掌。B12014湖北卷 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。When our restaurant business failed, we headed north

1546、9. DJoe再爬上来或者Simon把他拽上来都不太可能。50. B根据“was pulling Simon slowly towards the precipice.”可知,由于Joe在悬崖下面悬着,因此他的体重也把Simon往悬崖下面拖拽着,即他们两个都有可能掉下悬崖,丧失生命。51. A根据“after more than an hour in the dark and the icy cold”和“he cut the rope.”可知,经过在黑暗和寒冷中一个多小时的挣扎,Simon最终做出了决定。 52. C见上题解析。53. B根据cut the rope和into a huge

1622、.”知,Simon是一个理解力很强的学生,故用abilities表示他的能力。24. Cunprepared “未准备好的”,符合句意。 desperate绝望的;responsible负责任的;unsuitable不合适的。25.

D当时一些学生在教室前做课堂报告,故用give reports,表示“做报告”。 33. A根据语境知,当时Jeanne的声音非常轻,同学们都听不到,所以选quietly。repeatedly重复地;quickly快速地;firmly坚定地。34. CSimon是唯一一
1625、个你必须说服的人,他坐在教室最后听不到Jeanne的声音,根据句意选C项。35. D结合the last kid和the one who took the last seat知,Simon坐在班级的最后,所以选back。36. B从上下文知,“我”的无心之语让Simon很受鼓舞,此后他笑得也多了,故选smile。37.
