10、示,“触摸,摸索”。本题考生易错选A项。touch:轻触,轻碰(某物/某人)grab攫取,抓取,夺取,霸占:count计算,数,认为,看做,计数,有重要意义,有价值。32答案:C本段第一句交代了Susan双目失明已经一年了,因此语境表示“由于一场事故,她突然被抛进了黑暗的世界”。weakness软弱;sickness疾病;sadness悲伤。33答案:BSusan的丈夫Mark看着自己的妻子陷入绝望的状态,于是决定想尽一切办法来帮助她。sink into sth.(不用于被动语态):go into(a less active or happy state)“陷入(消极、不活跃或不愉快的状态)”
11、,符合语境。run into偶然遇到,途中遭遇(恶劣天气等);jump into跳进;step into走进去,步入。34答案:B根据语境,丈夫看见妻子由于意外事故而双目失明并且对生活感到绝望,此时的他当然是要下定决心,采取一切办法帮助妻子,因此选B。 be determined to do sth.下定决心做某事。35答案:A由空后her job及“她怎么能到那里呢?”可知本空表示Susan决心重返工作岗位,因此选A。 return: come or go back to a place回,返回。36答案:D结合语境看;Susan突然双目失明,此时的她面对生活的变故,自然是惊魂未定,因此选D
12、, frightened:恐惧的,害怕的,受惊的。此时的她不是感到疲倦(tired),也不是感到惊讶,吃惊(astonished)。C项depressed“忧愁的,消沉的,沮丧的”不如D项更符合她突然失去光明时茫然与无助的心态。37答案:A她的丈夫主动陪伴她乘坐公交车上下班。这里用volunteer to do something表示“自愿地或无偿地给予或提供(帮助、建议)等”。attempt to do sth.,试图/企图/尝试做某事,用于过去时往往含有该动作失败的含义;continue to do sth.“继续做某事”不符合语境,因为是妻子出现这样的情况之后Mark才这样做的;stru
13、ggle表示“挣扎”,不符合语境中对丈夫主动关心妻子的叙述。故选A。38答案:C从语境的连贯看,这里用until引导时间状语从句表示“直到”。Mark每天早上陪妻子上班,晚上陪妻子下班回家,直到她能独自坐公交车上下班。39答案:C根据上文,丈夫Mark每天早晚都要陪妻子一起坐公交车(ride the bus with Susan each morning and evening),因此这里用accompany表示“陪伴,陪同”。其他选项的主要含义:drive开车;direct指导,引导;send派遣。40答案:D妻子双目失明,此时丈夫就教妻子如何利用其他感官的能力。用sense表示“感官能力”
14、,包括视觉、听觉、嗅觉、味觉和触觉。如the five senses五种感官能力;have a keen sense of hearing听觉灵敏。A项意为“情感,感觉”;B项意为“器官”;C项意为“技巧”。41答案:B结合语境看,本题选B表示“环境”。他教给她如何依靠自己其他的感官能力,特别是她的听觉,以此来判断自己在什么地方,以及如何适应她所在的新环境。position位置,方位,地点;status状态,地位,情形;role“角色”,这三者都不符合语境。42答案:A她最终决定在双目失明的情况下,不要丈夫陪伴而独自试着去上下班。(all)on ones own:alone独自,独自地,单独地
15、,其他选项的含义不符合语境。in person: physically present亲身,亲自,本人;to ones benefit对某人有利;on foot步行。43答案:D对Susan来说,作为盲人的她要第一次试着独自出门乘坐公交车,对她来说,这是一个特殊的日子,因此她眼里含着感激的泪水“紧紧地”拥抱丈夫。A项意为“有礼貌地”;B项意为“冷静地”;C项意为“简短地”,都不符合语境。44答案:B根据语境可知“妻子这次要独自一人乘坐公交车”,因此本题选B,表示“分别,各自”。他们说了一声再见,然后各自去上班。separate: forming unit by itself; existing
16、 apart单独存在的,分开的。opposite相反的;fixed固定的;lonely孤独的,均不符合语境。45答案:D从此,Susan每天都能独自乘车上下班了,她充满了兴奋的感觉。take hold of“抓住,拿住,握住(某人/某物),这里表示“兴奋的感觉笼罩着她”。46答案:A有一个星期五的上午,Susan和往常一样坐公交车去上班。as usual与往常一样;as a rule按规定;as well也;as a consequence因此,结果。根据语境选A。47答案:B从下文这位司机所说的话判断选B,表示“羡慕,嫉妒”。司机说,“这位小姐,我好羡慕你啊。”A项意为“尊敬”;C项意为“知
17、道,认识”;D项意为“支持”,都不符合语境。48答案:C在下公交车的时候,司机突然说了这样一句话,这让Susan不明白是什么意思,就问司机为什么要这样说。这里用why表示“为什么”。49答案:A本句的谓语动词使用了现在完成进行时,表示延续到现在的动作,因此这里选A,“在过去的一周里”,用“in/for/during the last/past一段时间”表示“在过去的多长时间里”。B项意为“同样的,相同的”,不符合语境;选C项意为“在第一个星期”,选D项意为“在下个星期”,均与主句谓语动词的时态不相符。故选A。50答案:C她虽然失去了光明,但是丈夫给予她的礼物比她所失去的光明更坚强有力:这是丈夫
18、的爱的礼物,这份礼物能驱赶黑暗,带来光明。【解决方案与复习指南】正如人们在看某个物件时,如果看不清的话就要站开点,而不是靠近,考生需要跳出当句,前后联系,正确辨析同义或近义词以及常用词汇的辨析。如:【例】 The first attempt of even the most talented artists, musicians, and writers is seldom a masterpiece.

28、que(技术);style(风格);career(事业、生涯)都不符题意。51答案:D本题考查介词短语辨析,前面adding, deleting, replacing, reordering等各种工序,这些都能笼统地被称为“修订(revise)”所以revising和这些名词同义;介词短语in other words表示“换句话说”。介词短语in particular(尤其、特别表强调);as a result(因此,表结果);for example(例如,表举例说明)都不符题意。52答案:A本题考查动词辨析,动词skip(跳远);reject(拒绝、抵制);replace(取代)都不符题意。
29、人们观看的是完美的表演,但表演之前作品经历了(undergo)多次修改,与上段的“Andrew Lloyd Webbers musical Phantom of the Opera underwent such a process.”对应。53答案:A本题考查动词辨析,动词release(释放、赦免、发行);record(记录、录音);reserve(保留、预订)都不符题意。动词rewrite表示“重写、修改”,与动词revise同义,与本篇文章话题相关。54答案:B本题考查介词短语辨析,介词短语in addition to表示“而且;除之外还有”;in opposition to表示“与的意
30、见相反”,in contrast to表示“与形成对比”,都与本题不符。in response to(作为对的反应)在本句表示“你修改作品是对你想改进作品目的的一种回应”。55答案:D本题考查形容词辨析,fresh ideas与后面的newly discovered information对应。56答案:B本题考查副词辨析,副词Moreover(而且)类似于but also,表递进含义,与前面句not just (only)呼应。副词However(然而,表转折关系);Instead(作为替代、反而,表相反含义);Therefore(因此,表原因)都不符合题意。57答案:B本题考查动词辨析,s
31、witch topics(变换标题)属于修改作品的一部分。动词discuss(讨论)exhaust(汲干、使筋疲力尽)cover(覆盖;包含)都不符题意。58答案:D本题考查动名词辨析,名词drafting(起草)、rearranging(重新安排);performing(表演)都与题意不符。名词training(培训)在本句表示“排练”,与上文dress rehearsals/tryouts同义。本题难。59答案:C本题考查名词辨析,名词audience(观众),与下句view your dress rehearsal对应。名词director(导演)、master(主人;大师);visit
32、or(来访者)都与题意不符。60答案:B本题考查形容词辨析,形容词valuable,表示“做自己作品的观众能给你有价值的新信息”。形容词personal(个人的);basic(基本的);delicate(娇贵的;纤弱的;精美的)都与题意不符。61答案:A本题考查动词辨析,动词mix,在本句表示“修改就是把作品所有方面的有效性和适当性融合在一起”。62答案:D本题考查形容词辨析,形容词clear,在本句中表示“我的文章大意或写作意图是否清晰”,与下文confuse readers对应。形容词amazing(令人惊讶的)、bright(明亮的、聪明的)、unique(独特的)都与题意不符。63答案:C本题考查名词辨析,后句名称facts、opinions、 inferences都属于information。64答案:A本题考查形容词辨析,形容词unnecessary details表示“多余的信息”反而使读者困惑、误导读者。形容词uninteresting(单调的;乏味的);concrete(具体的)、final(最终的、决定性的)都与题意不符。.w。w-w*k&s%5¥u高考资源网w。w-w*k&s%5¥u
