17、为“跳越”；turn over意为“翻转”；push一般不与 over搭配。2C根据句意判断应选C项表示“在别人，通常是一个帅小伙的注视下，她往往因为不自在而摔倒”。watch意为“注视，留意”，符合题意。根据常识可排除“大笑（laugh）”，人们看到长相丑的人不可能“大笑”，而是好奇地“注视”。3D人们嘲笑的是她的长相，所以选D项。the way后跟的是定语从句，省略了引导词in which/that。从前文她长相难看这一点可排除其他选项。4C人们嘲笑她，不仅因为她长相“不一样（different）”，而且因为她想法“不一样”。special意为“独特的”，不一定指缺点；从后文可知，她并不“
18、愚蠢（silly）”，因此不选A项.5Bwhen引导表语从句说明事情发生的时间。此处不表示事情发生的原因、方式或地点，根据下文的提示可排除其他选项。6A日记只能是“提醒（remind）”她生活中还有好的一方面。remind sb. that.意为“提醒某人注意某事”。B、C两项的主语的一般是人；help后面不跟从句。7D作者此处强调的是日记的作用，even though/even if引导让步状语从句，意为“即使”，符合此处的逻辑关系。本题干扰性最大的是but，如果用even though作者想强调的是前者，生活中还有美好的东西；如果用but，作者强调的是后者“一切都不令人愉快”。8A因为是写
19、日记，所以每天都“添加（add）”一些新的东西。从“写日记”这个角度 9C她想让同学们了解她日记的内容，因此也就是“分享（share）”。日记是让别人看，而不是跟别人“讨论（discuss）”。10D从后面她又受到同学的嘲笑看，此处应是转折关系，表示“没有怎么样，而是”。 11B从前面她感到羞愧以及连词and可知，她“停止”了写作。从连接词and所表示的关系，可排除其他选项。12Acool意为“酷的”，此处是文章的转折，后文叙述的是她最终获得了成功。此处作者强调的不是“重要”，不能说前面的部分不重要，后面的部分重要。 13Bpick up意为“重新干”，从前面她一度停止写作可知应选B项。fin
20、d out意为“弄清事情的真相”；think of意为“想出，想起”；give up意为“放弃”，都不符合题意。14Cin particular意为“特殊的”，一般作后置定语或状语，此处指她专门向一家公司投稿。in general意为“总的说来”，用于对事物的评价；at first意为“起初”，含有后来不这样做的意思；at last意为“最后”，说明的是最终的结果。15Dbe supposed to do可表示推测，意为“预计会”，也可表示命令，意为“应该”，此处表示命令，be made to do意为“被迫做”；be advised to do意为“被建议做”。16B此处强调日记的作用“仅仅
21、（just）”是提醒人们他们所做的事情有意义。此处强调日记的作用或目的就“一个”，由此可排除其他选项。17Cfun此处意为“有趣，有意义”。“优秀的，好极了的（excellent）”、“成功的（successful）”和“真的（true）”都不是作者强调的中心。18B从前面的Finally看，此处指出版商最终“同意（agree）”给她出版。refuse和hope不合题意；consider后面不接不定式形式。19Amake it是固定短语，意为“获得成功”。此处指她的书上了最畅销书的排行榜。20Dbesides为介词，意为“除之外，还”。本句是说她不仅出版了畅销书，而且还实现了自己当体育编辑的梦
22、想。 (2) 1B哈里斯堡（Harrisburg）和路易斯堡（Lewisburg）两个地方之间的“距离（distance）”大约是八十英里。D项表示“长度”，语意不恰当。2B本段开头部分提到作者当时开车行驶在两地之间，所以此处描述的是“开车”的速度。3C在一条狭窄的道路上，作者好几次被前面一辆行驶缓慢的卡车“困住”了，即无法超车。4D根据本段第二句的内容可知作者当时急于赶路，所以非常“不耐烦地”握紧了拳头。5B在一条开阔的公路上，作者“来到（came to）”了一个有交通灯的十字路口。6C当“靠近（approached）”交通灯时，灯变成了红色，作者于是踩了刹车。7B作者坐在那里，等待交通灯“
23、变成”绿色。8D上文提到作者环顾左右和后面，但是一片空荡荡，由此可知作者是至少一英里之内任何一个“方向”中唯一的人。9A虽然当时四周没有一个人，可是作者仍然没有闯红灯，于是作者开始“疑惑”自己这样做的原因。后三项分别表示“怀疑”“挣扎”“遗憾”，均不符合语境。10B作者不害怕被“罚款”，因为四周没有交警。fine“处以罚金”，符合语境。11A由于当时周围没有人，闯红灯当然不会有“危险”。12A在当晚的晚些时候，作者“见到”了一群朋友。后三项分别表示“克服”“摆脱”“回电话”，都不符合语境。13B上一段的开头部分提到作者不知道自己当时为什么没有闯红灯，此时作者又“回想起”这个问题。14C作者认为
24、自己之所以停下来是因为这是“我们”所有人彼此之间合同的一部分，它不仅仅是“法律”，而且是“我们”达成的协定。此外，第17空后面的law也是线索提示。15A“我们”彼此信任对方会“执行”这一协定：“我们”不闯红灯。honor表示“信守，执行”，符合语境。16A像“我们”中的大多数人一样，作者更可能被社会惯例“制止”做被其认为是不好的事情。后三项分别表示“保护”“拒绝”“害怕”，均不符合语境。17D相对于被法律制止做些不正确的事，作者更倾向于被社会惯例制止住。disapprove of“不赞成”。前三项分别表示“谈及”“支持”“吸收”，均不符合语境。18B“我们”总是彼此“信任（trust）”对方去做正确的事情，这非常令人惊奇。此外，第15空前面的trust以及第19空前面的trust都是线索提示。19B作者强调彼此之间应该互相信任，这是“我们”的第一选择。20D作者通过深思感悟到当时的行为非常正确，为那天晚上没有闯红灯感到无比“自豪”。 - 5 - 版权所有高考资源网
