64、for my brother and me可知是为了挣钱。22B他们从未像我在书中读到，或在电视中看到的那样浪漫。23D从上下得知，说出“我爱你”是太难了，而不是太简单、容易、轻松。24A out of the question是个固定短语，意为“亳无可能”；out of question“毫无疑问，没问题”；out of reach (伸手)够不着；out of control 失控。25B根据上下文，此处指“你和爸爸之间有没有爱情啊”。 26D因在缝被子，母亲低下头。27A我担心伤害了她。伤害感情用“hurt”。 28B我非常尴尬。29C由下文的“disappear”得知此处是“appea
65、r”。句意为“苏珊，看看这些线。有时候，你能看得见，但是大多数都隐藏在被子里。”30D这些线使被子坚固耐用。 31B你不可能随时随地看到它，但是它却实实在在地存在着。32A由上句推出：爱是内在的。33B由下文until可知此处用否定式。以构成not until的句式。句意为：我仔细地听着，却无法明白她的话，直到来年的春天。34A由My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month.可知父亲突然得重病。get stuck困住；throw up呕吐；become disabled残疾。35B此处指“脸色，气色”。句意为：当他们从医院
66、回来的时候，都显得非常苍白。36D (为了使父亲身体康复)，他们回来之后，每天的清晨或黄昏，母亲都会搀扶着父亲在乡村的小路上漫步。37C从上文Dad, how are you feeling now可知，此处有“担心”之意。38A英语中“看得出”习惯上不用see。句意为：从他的眼神里，我看得出他对母亲的爱之深刻。39C四个选项中A、B、D与前面提到的“鲜花、礼物”同类，只有C项不同类。句意为：我曾经认为爱情就是鲜花、礼物和甜蜜的亲吻。40A由全文可知，但是从那一刻起，我明白了，爱情就像是生活中被子里的一根线。第卷（非选择题，共80分）第三部分 基础知识考查（共两节，满分20分）第一节单词填空（
