29、“贪婪的”；C项意为“好奇的”；D项意为“奇怪的”。根据下文内容可知，他认为Arthur Scoresby只不过是一个幸运的傻瓜，所以当他看到Arthur Scoresby接受如此高的荣誉时，应该是感到“奇怪”。答案：D2解析：句意为：他靠近我并低声说：“在我看来他只不过是个幸运的傻瓜而已”。A项意为“快乐地，幸福地”；B项意为“幸运地”；D项意为“逐渐地”。privately本意为“私下地，私人地”，在此译作“在我看来，就我个人观点而言”。答案：C3解析：句意为：他的这些话令我很震惊。根据文章第一句内容可知，“我”对Arthur Scoresby充满崇拜，所以当“我”听到朋友对Arthur
30、Scoresby作出这样的评价时，应该是“震惊”才对。答案：A4解析：句意为：多年前我(作者的朋友)是Woolwich军事学校的一名教员，当时年轻的Arthur Scoresby参加了他的第一次“考试”。根据下文中的“He got through the examination.”可知答案选B。答案：B5解析：句意为：每个人的回答都不错，“然而”他(Arthur Scoresby)却什么也不会。while强调转折对比，符合句意。答案：B6解析：句意为：我同情他，并只问我认为他可能知道的东西。what引导的为宾语从句，且在从句中作宾语，I thought为插入语。在名词性从句中，如缺少名词性成分
31、，指人时，用who/whom；指物时，用what。答案：B7解析：句意为：我认为最后“毁掉”他的一定会是数学考试。A项意为“破坏，毁灭”；B项意为“使确信，相信”；C项意为“激发”；D项意为“鼓舞，鼓励”。根据句意可知，destroy符合语境。答案：A8解析：句意为：但是，你能想象到考试的“结果”吗。根据下文中的“ such strange，Laughable result”可知，“我”的朋友讲述的是考试的“结果(成绩)”。答案：D9解析：句意为：由于某些“幸运的”巧合，他居然得了第一名。根据上文中的“he is a fool and yet a lucky dog.”可知，应用lucky 一
32、词。答案：C10解析：句意为：我从来没想到会出现这样奇怪的、可笑的结果。A项意为“调整以适应”；B项意为“属于”；C项意为“参考，涉及，指的是”；D项意为“导致”。根据语境可知，我没有想到这个会“导致”这样的结果。答案：D11解析：句意为：后来，克莱米亚战争爆发了，他被任命为军官。但“没有人”知道这个秘密。根据文章内容可知，人们都认为Arthur Scoresby是个出色的将军，“没有人”知道他是个傻瓜的秘密。答案：A12解析：句意为：人们把他每次所犯的错误看作是天才的表现。A项意为“无私”；B项意为“智力，聪明”；C项意为“重要”；D项意为“诚实”。答案：B13解析：句意为：战争变得越来越激
33、烈，英国军队正全面而有序地撤退。我们团“占据”一个非常重要的位置(据点)。A项意为“占领，占据”；B项意为“放弃”；C项意为“预测”；D项意为“证实，证明”。根据语境可知，我们当时应该是“占据”着那个据点。答案：A14解析：句意为：任何一个错误都会导致全面的“失败(灾难)”。A项意为“革命”；B项意为“机会”；C项意为“灾难”；D项意为“压力”。disaster符合句意。答案：C15解析：句意为：上峰发出命令让他撤退去援助我们右翼。“但是”他却前进，翻过山脉去了我们的左翼方向。根据上下句内容可知，两句为否定转折关系。答案：C16解析：句意为：一支庞大的、“没有预料到的”俄国军队正等候在那里。A
34、项意为“官方的，正式的”；B项意为“自信的”；C项意为“普通的，平常的”；D项意为“没有预料到的，出乎预料的”。Arthur Scoresby带领军队冲到那里，没有想到那里会有敌人的军队。答案：D17解析：句意为：这些吃惊的俄国军队没有想到单独一个团会在这个时候“出现”在这里，认为这一定是全部的英国军队。come around意为“到处走动，来访，出现”。根据语境可知，俄国军队没有想到英国军队会“出现”在这里。答案：B18解析：句意为：他们仓皇逃窜了。根据文章内容可知，俄国军队没有想到英国军队会来，认为是全部的英国军队前来进攻。所以他们就“混乱”地撤离了。答案：C19解析：句意为：英国军队把失
35、败变成了一个全面的“胜利”。与“defeat(失败)”对应的应该是“victory(胜利)”。答案：A20解析：句意为：那天以后，Arthur Scoresby就作为一个出色的军事“领袖”闻名世界了。A项意为“运动员”；B项意为“士兵”；C项意为“讲师”：D项意为“领袖，领导”。根据文章第一句“.when I saw the famous general Arthur Scoresby.”以及第三段中的“He was appointed an officer.”可知，他是一名“领袖”。答案：D.阅读理解语篇解读：本文为一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者通过一个朋友说的“有空来串门”这句话，表达了自己对“
36、串门(顺便拜访)”这种传统的怀念。由于时代变迁，人们现在越来越忙碌，这种传统已经渐渐消失。1解析：推理判断题。根据文章第一段内容可知，“我”偶遇了一位朋友，在谈话结束快分开之际，朋友说：“有时间你一定要来串门。”“我”立即意识到假如我真的顺便去拜访她的话，她一定会很吃惊，想象看到她站在门口问：“哦，嗯你怎么来了”的情形。“我”自己肯定也会很泄气。因此，作者朋友说这句话，只是为了表示礼貌，并不是真的想要邀请作者有时间去拜访她。答案：C2解析：词义猜测题。根据第二段前两句内容可知，没有预料到的拜访会怎么样呢？在20世纪60年代，看起来人们主要是亲戚，也有时候是朋友，串门是常事。因此，popping
37、 in指的就是dropin visit。答案：D3解析：细节理解题。根据第二段第五句中的“The neighbor lady，a worrier，was unloading her sadness while my mom quietly listened”可较容易排除B、C、D三项。答案：A4解析：推理判断题。根据第三段作者分析的“串门”这种传统消失的原因及第二段作者描述的在过去人们经常串门的场景可知，作者很怀念这种传统。答案：A5解析：写作意图题。通读全文可知，作者通过对“串门”这种传统的描述，主要是为了表达自己对这种传统的怀念，C项与此最为相等 。答案：C语篇解读：本文介绍了美国著名诗人
38、Langston Hughes，他在哈莱姆文艺复兴中做出了突出贡献。6解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“From his childhood，Langston Hughes developed a love of reading books，which grew into a desire to write.”可知，Hughes从小就渴望写作。答案：B7解析：细节理解题。根据第三段的内容可知，诗人Lindsay读了Hughes写的诗，各地的新闻报纸又对Lindsay读的诗进行了报道，之后Hughes就出名了。答案：C8解析：细节理解题。根据第五段中的“For the first time，black artistic style was being widely recognized.”可知，在哈莱姆文艺复兴中，黑人的艺术风格得到了认可。答案：B9解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“he helped bring the movement of jazz and the sound of black speech into poetry”可知，他把黑人音乐和语言融入了诗歌。答案：C
