85、ads,【点拨领悟】1.解析：文章首句点明了故事发生的原因、涉及的人物及地点(a fast food restaurant)，即为了庆祝考试结束，朋友们和我一起去了快餐店。由首句这些信息可知26空应为“点了”汉堡和可口可乐。order“订购，点菜”；make“使，制作”；arrange“安排”；demand“要求”。故选A。2解析：由文章第一句可知Diane Ray的两个特点：完全以自我为中心(completely selfcentred)、被宠坏的(very spoilt)。故她的父母给她想要的任何东西(everything)；如果得不到这些想要的东西，她就发脾气，躺在(lie)地板上又哭又
86、闹；最终结果是她的父母不得不屈服(give in)。三个选项所在的句子完全是为了说明这一段的主题句，即首句。故36题选D,37题选B,38题选C。3解析：根据本段第一句：我过去是一个以自我为中心的人，但在过去的两年里我真的变了。36空处体现出的正是变化后的结果，那就是先考虑别人，再考虑自己。所以36题选B项，before“在之前”。再根据首句中“in the past two years I have really changed”可知作者现在正成为一个完全不同于过去的人。所以37题选择C项。4解析：首句中利用孩子的语言提出自己的梦想，“Mama, when I grow up, Im goi
87、ng to be one of those！”意思为“妈妈，我长大后要成为那些人中的一个！”，显然此处是作者孩提时期的一个“梦想”。因此，正确答案为C项。5解析：首句由小女孩的问题“Whats it like to have a gap between your teeth？”引出全文，根据这个问题引发了作者的思考，并以“以前从没有人问过我这个问题”展开论述。故36题选择C项。6解析：首句“The concept of solitude (独处) in the digital world is almost nonexistent.”意思为“在数字化时代里，独处的概念几乎是不存在的。”因此第二句提出在数字化技术时代，电子邮件、社会网络和在线视频游戏、各种信息是被共享的(shared)。选C项。7解析：利用首句信息，“我到Kansas祖父的农场去拜访”可知下句表明“我”被祖父派去捡山核桃，应该到树林(woods)里去。故选B项。
