18、s _40_.解题导语:本文为哲理性的记叙文,通过讲述一个小故事来说明积累的重要性。虽然平时的积累看起来可能是毫无意义的,但是它在最后能够给人带来意想不到的收益,所以我们要养成积累的好习惯。21A.praises BcomplaintsCcomments Dpunishments解析:根据上一句的语气及useless推出这里为complaints“抱怨”。答案:B22A.headmasters BcolleaguesCclassmates Dstudents解析:根据文章前两句我们可以推出这是老师从学生们那里听到的最普遍的抱怨之一,老师和学生是相对应的,所以这里用students。答案:D23
19、A.story BevenCaccident Dtrouble解析:从下文可以看出这是一个完整的故事,所以用story。答案:A24A.deciding BhopingCpreparing Drefusing解析:考查动词辨析。联系空后的to可推出:decide to“决定”,hope to“希望”,refuse to“拒绝”,只有prepare to do sth.(准备做某事),符合题意。一群牧民在一整天的旅途中,很疲惫,准备搭帐篷(休息)。答案:C25A.caught BexposedCsurrounded Dspotted解析:根据下文语境a bunch of bright light
20、可以推出他们“被光束包围”,故选surrounded。答案:C26A.expectation BworryChappiness Dsatisfaction解析:根据前面的looking forward to“(高兴地)盼望,期待”,我们可以推出牧民们带着极大的期望,盼望上帝能够给他们带来财富(第五段也有提示),所以expectation最符合题意。答案:A27A.After BBeforeCWhen DSince解析:根据上下文可知此处表示在天亮之前,所以用before。答案:B28A.the number of Ba lot ofCthe amount of Da bit of解析:the
21、number of表示“的数目”,the amount of“的数量(修饰不可数名词)”,而a bit of“大量(修饰不可数名词)”都不符合题意,所以只有a lot of“许多”正确。答案:B29A.must BneedCshould Dmay解析:考查情态动词。根据上文maybe我们可以推出这里是表示不太有把握的判断,所以用may或might。答案:D30A.disappeared BappearedCstayed Dattached解析:考查动词辨析,根据上下文我们可以推出上帝应该是消失,不见了,所以用disappeared。答案:A31A.astonished BexcitedCsat
22、isfied Ddisappointed解析:根据下文语境可以看出他们的期待(上帝给他们带来财富)与现实(捡鹅卵石)相差很远,所以用disappointed“失望的”。答案:D32A.helpful BoutstandingCbored Dmeaningless解析:根据上文语境,尤其是第一段的useless可知,这些牧民认为捡鹅卵石没有什么用处,所以用meaningless。答案:D33A.in all Bat allCafter all Dabove all解析:in all表示“总共,总计”,at all表示“根本,全然”,after all表示“毕竟,终究”,above all表示“首
23、先”,根据语境可知此处表示“这毕竟是上帝的意愿”,所以用after all。答案:C34A.as BifCsince Dthan解析:这里是as引导的让步状语从句,注意as引导让步状语从句时必须要倒装。答案:A35A.taking up Bpicking overCgiving in Dhanding out解析:根据第四段中的collect,我们可以推出这里用picking over“用心挑选,筛选”。答案:B36A.examining BsearchingCseeking Dwatching解析:examine表示“检查”,search表示“寻找”,seek表示“寻找”,watch表示“观

It might lead to some interested results.50._答案:41sourcesources。One of 后应加复数名词,故应将source改为sources。42去掉what或whatwhich/that。此处为定语从句,引导词在从句中作宾语,故应去
28、掉what或将what改为which或that。43thea。“把世界变成一个更好的地方”,应用不定冠词。44differentlydifferent。be后面应接形容词作表语,而不是副词。45criedcry。结合上下文的叙述可知此处应用一般现在时,与文章基本时态保持一致。46inat。此处应为(not)at all“一点都不”,表示强调。4748wishwishing。此处的wish与前面的judging并列,故也用ing形式,catch sb. doing sth.发现某人正在做某事。49try后加a。“尝试一种不同的方法”,单数可数名词前应加不定冠词。50interestedinteresting。事物本身有趣应用interesting。
