17、句与下面所讲述的“随着年龄的增大,这些孩子与我相互对抗”做对比,因此C最佳。3D前面讲I met my husband,接下来“我”就结婚了。4C从stepkids live with their mom and stepdad这句所使用的时态我们知道,作者在讲述一般的情况。5AIn most case, stepkids live with their mom and stepdad而我们的情况是“孩子与父亲和继母生活在一起”,因此说unusual。6B从空后的with us fulltime我们可以推断出,孩子们搬进来与我们住在一起。7D联系前文的fulltime,我们可以推断出,“我”与
18、孩子们不再是parttime friends了。8B以前让孩子帮忙不是个麻烦的事情。根据后文“我”让他们帮忙时,他们总是拒绝,我们可以得此答案。9C联系前文after可知,quickly与immediately不合适。10B因为你不是我母亲,我不听你的。11D联系空后的but I realized it was about可知,作者认为“尽管这样是痛苦的,但是”。12A从后文I wasnt his mom; I was another person in his life可知,“我”认为到了把各自的角色搞清楚的时候了。13C尽管“我”不是他的母亲,可“我”也是另一个给他爱的人。 14B叫他帮忙
19、的目的是一起做事情。15B本句的意思是“甚至从生活中的位置上讲,继父母也并不是父母。”16D从空后的lots of hugs and laughs我们知道,是彼此“共享”,而不是“有”。17Ain the shadows是比喻的说法,意思是“受委屈”,联系下文我们可以得此答案。18D只有足够的票让父母坐在前排,“我”只能选择坐后排。19C从空后的to say hi我们得出quick的答案。to say hi在这里的意思是“问候一下”,因此是a quick email。20A“即使没有血缘,关心是存在的。” bloodline意思是“血缘”。(二)【要点综述】 这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章,记述了感恩
20、节前夕发生在一对母女身上的感人故事。虽然家境贫寒,但是母亲仍然捐献给因失火而身陷困境的邻居一些物品。正在这时,仅仅三岁的女儿决定要捐献自己最喜爱的玩具熊,妈妈舍不得但是又不忍伤害女儿幼小的心灵,勉强同意了。女儿年龄虽小,但是心胸不小,可爱可敬。1A上文提到住所简陋,又没有工作,生活艰堆,只能勉强量入为出。struggled (努力,奋斗)符合语境。2C作者正在考虑感恩节的事情,这时“得知(learned)”邻居遭受火灾,所有物品化为灰烬。所以作者说,尽管生活窘迫,但她还是比较知足。3D这里强调损失之严重,与下文各界踊跃捐助相呼应。4B由下文列举各方援助的具体细节可知大家在“援助(rescue)
21、”。5D许多人前来捐献物品,既出钱,又花费时间帮忙。as well as表示并列,意为“和,也”。6A依据下文I helped carry items to their car可知她们是来募捐,“收集(collecting)”捐献物品的。7CAlthough暗示尽管作者“没有多少东西(little)”可捐献,但她还是帮着把一些物品放在车上。 8D其实作者内心是“期盼(longing)”捐献更多物品的,实在是心有余而力不足。 9C由下一段的Helen was back outside可知,作者在外边和人聊天。10D依据下文youre right. We forgot the toy推断这里女儿的
22、意思是我们“忘记(forgot)”拿什么东西了。11B作者还没来得及跟着女儿进屋,她已经又跑了出来。before这里意为“还没来得及就”。12B结合上下文推断该玩具熊是女儿的最爱。13A女儿看着“我”的脸,察言观色,试探“我”的态度。14D作者想到了女儿玩具并不多,也想到了为了缝这只玩具熊自己所花费的时间。15C女儿现在要把她最喜爱的玩具捐出去。give away捐献。16D一时间大家都沉默了,来募捐的妇女“盯(staring)”着 “我”,不知“我”如何反应。17C大家都屏住呼吸,静观事情的发展。hold ones breath是固定短语,意为“屏住呼吸”。 18A作者的声音因为激动都变调了。break此处意为“(因激动)变调”。19B作者鼓励女儿:你做得对,我们忘记拿玩具了,还是你考虑得“周全(thoughtful)”,记着这件事。20D这件事让作者意识到她的女儿心地善良,可爱可敬。高考资源网独家精品资源,欢迎下载!高考资源网Ks5uK&S%5#UKs5uKs%U高考资源网高考资源网高考资源网
