9、类题型的关键是把握好人物的特点和品质。答案： 1.A解析：她的写作技能是她“偶然学到”的，pickup当“偶然学到”讲，可以说pick叩alanguageaskill等。本题干扰性最大的是experience，“经验”只能是慢慢“积累”而不能是“偶然”学到；practice意思是“实践”，与pick叩也不搭配；method可以跟pick叩搭配，但此处不是指写作“方法”，而是写作“技巧”。 2.C解析：空后的teachingdisabledchildren是前面内容的同位语，教残疾儿童应是一种工作，且后文有part-timewriter (业余作家)，也说明她有一份工作。 3.D解析：此处指“当
10、时”她成为IBM的业余作者时，写作仅仅是个人爱好，故用thenatthattime其他选项没有把握好上下文的逻辑关系。 4C解析：全句意为：在当时，写作写故事不过是她的一项个人兴趣(不是工作或谋生的手段)。 5A 解析：此空选A，是因为他们(出版商)感兴趣，此处interested与主语是被动的主谓关系，如不感兴趣，他们便不会提建议了。此处出版商不可能是“着急”“严肃”或“受鼓励”。 6B解析：出版商(或编辑们)建议她(把三个故事)放在一起，组成一部长篇小说，所以此空填B由语境可排除其他选项，她写的不是“电影”“程序”，也不是“文章”。 7D 解析：出版商人预付了Tracy 5万美元，且说：对
11、一个不出名的作者来说这是一笔不小的数目。此处的pretty近于 alargeconsiderablesur sum of，意为“挺不错、够多了”，从逻辑分析看，5万美元对于外国的受欢迎的/非凡的作者就可能显得少了。 8.B解析：此处构成的只能是让步关系，表示“尽管”她小说中的人物非常有趣，但有时却使读者感到不自在，故用even thoughif now that既然”，引导原因状语从句；C是原因状语从句；D是介词后的宾语从句，意为“除了”。 )9C 解析：leave意为“使处于某种状态”，即“她的故事有时候使读者处于不安状态中。“uneasy”是宾语补足语，符合leave的用法。findsb意
12、思是“发现某人”不合题意；其他动词不合搭配。 10B 解析：根据后句SheusedtOyearsago(她过去常常让我同已死去多年的祖母说话)可知，母亲相信作者能和人死后所去的世界沟通。故选amakeup“编造；构成比例”，不合题意；control控制”；explain解释”都不合逻辑，因为没有人能够控制或解释人死后的世界。 11D 解析：此处是说她生活中有些“时刻”非常奇怪，令人难以置信。 12A 解析：Tracy认为自己不能与阴间沟通，但她的确遇到过无缘无故就发生了事情的时候，后文无缘无故得到的那本书便是例子。所以此空填fornoreason(无缘无故、不知为什么)。fromadistan
13、ce从远处”；byaccident“偶然地”；asgifts作为礼物”均不合语境。 13C 解析：空后的“set in ancient China是过去分词作定语，修饰空内要填的词，意即：(时空)设定在古代中国的 ，据此填scene最好。全句的意思是：有一次，她正不知道怎么样完成一个设定在古代中国的场面。此时她在写作。B项和D项均不妥，她不是在绘画或交谈；A项description(描述)肯定会有很强的干扰性，但与后面作定语的分词短语搭配不当。“一个设定在古代中国的描述”肯定不妥。 14B 解析：门铃突然响了，合乎情理。门铃响应不是令人吃惊的事(排除A)，但也不是意料中所指望的事(排除C)fo
14、rtunately多指危险中出现了转机或好事，用于此处有些夸大，且fortunately多被逗号同句子隔开。 15B 解析：Tracy写古代中国的场面时遇到困难，一本书中雪中送炭，帮了大忙。这本书应该是关于中国历史的，如这本书是关于其他方面的，就帮不上忙了。 16D 解析：她没订购这本书，这本书就在需要时刻来了，正符合上文的“无缘无故就发生了一些事的时候”。 17A 解析：本句中的though是关键词，下文的sallie也给提示。全句意思是：尽管她已出版了10部著作(应该名利双收了)，但盛名之下，她并没有改变。后文的“She lives in the sameshe lived 27 year
15、sago”也说明她没多大变化。 unmoved的意思是“没有被感动”，用在此处不合语境。 18D解析：空后的Shelived 27yearsago”是定语从句，修饰所填的词，只有先行词是way才合理，句意才能通顺，与上下文相符合：她的生活方式仍与27年前一样。如选其他三项，空后应有一关系副词，且与下文不符。 28C 解析：此处是说她“快乐的事情”很多，不仅仅是写作。 此处作者强调这位女作家很会享受生活，这样可排除其他干扰项。 20A 解析：此处是说除了“写作”，她还有很多其他的爱好。把握好人物的身份和职业可排除其他选项。题点经典类型题 1.

23、ach C. learn D. solve1A. 解析：联系下文我们可以得知，出生时，“我”左胳臂肘以下的部分缺少。从下文可知，作者的胳膊不是断了(bro ken)，也不是生病(diseased)，而是没有。 2. D 解析：从空后的句子我们得知，这是医生给“我”母亲的建议，要母亲像对待一个正常的孩子那样对待“我”。此处医生给我母亲的不是“警告”，也不是“帮助”，更不是“药”。 3B 解析：从下句demandmore可以得知，医生要“我”母亲不要因为“我”的残疾就把“我”与其他孩子区别对待。从后面的介词from可排除其他选项，不合搭配。 4A 解析：did在此相当于demandedmore，此
24、处强调母亲确实照医生的话做了。B、C不合题意。D用于替代句中的系表结构，而此处demandmore是实意动词。 5C 解析：support在这里是“支撑，养活”的意思，说明母亲要工作来养家糊口。从母亲的艰辛这一点可排除其他动词； care关心”feed喂养”。 6D 解析：从下文“我”剥土豆皮的经历可得知“我们”姐妹几个都帮母亲的忙。help out当“帮助”讲pay attention注意”；workout解决问题；出现结果”；carry out执行(任务等)”，都不合题意。 7A 解析：从空后的Mom，Icant peelpotatoes”看，“我”从厨房走出来。从作者削土豆这具体的语境可
25、排除其他选项。 8. C 解析：空前的that指代“我”所说的Icant peel potatoes，I only have one hand母亲认为那是借口，故用eXCUS“主 意”“变化”“解释”在此都不合逻辑。 9B 解析：用右手剥皮，用左胳膊把土豆握住，myotherarm 指失去肘部以下的那只胳膊。lost失踪的、丢失的”，往往指整个东西，而此处作者的胳膊仅仅缺少了半截；next下一个”指次序；longer不合逻辑。 10B 解析：从下文if you try hard 11(enough)，you can do anything”我们得知，“我”认为办法总是有的。此处指的是有“办法”
26、，其他选项不合题意。 11A 解析：enough在这里做程度副词，修饰前面的副词hard题意为：假如你足够努力，你什么事情都可以做。100表示两种两样的情况；again表示动作的重复，都不合题意。 12C 解析：从下句我们知道，这次“我”没有做，因此当老师要“我”做的时候，“我”摇头拒绝，因此用shock从下文以及作者是残疾人这一点可排除其他选项。 13D 解析：在这里作者是说有几个孩子嘲笑“我”，用laugh at sb A、C有较大干扰性，cheered多表达因为成功、喜悦而欢呼庆祝，而joke指开玩笑。14B 解析：take sbt。a place意思是“领着某人去某地”。drivesb
27、t。意为“开车拉送某人到什么地方”；send sbTo a place意为“派某人去某地”；carry sbt。意为“携带某人去某地”。 15A 解析：pull up在这里指把身体拉上去。在这里母亲要“我”用右手把身体拉上高低杠。pull表示“拉，牵引”。因为后面有“用你的右手”的信息限制，因此排除其他选项。 16B 解析：as在此相当于when或while，在我练习的时候，母亲站在一边。此处表示两个动作同时发生，因此排除其他选项。 17C 解析：在“我”有进步时，母亲表场“我”。由前面“进步”信息提示，可排除“帮助”“抬”“保护”。 18D 解析：thenext time指自那次以后的下一次
28、；the firsttime“第一次”；thelasttime上一次，最后一次”；thewonderfultime最美好的时光”都不合语境。 19B解析：不能够处理事情是“我”的担心，故用fear，相当于beafraid其他答案均有一定干扰性，联系上下文我们知道，母亲一直鼓励“我”不要把自己看作残疾人，她要求“我”做正常人所做的一切事情。admit“承认”，realize意识到”，此处都不合语境。 20. A 解析：“她用心去面对一切事情”。D项有一定干扰性，从空前的heart我们得知，母亲从心理上能勇敢面对一切困难。 新高考命题探究CIoze 1 Many children may be f
