12、20A. local B. long C. native D. special答案与解析【解题导语】一位美国人应邀写一本关于世界上著名教堂的书,在一个教堂里他看到一个金色的电话,附带的一个标牌上写着:每次通话一万美金。可是同样的电话在澳大利亚却不同,原因是什么呢?1D由全文可知,Jay到一些地方去旅行,上文的“Jay bought a plane ticket”也是暗示信息。2Awork ones way的意思是“奋力前进”。此处意为:他奋力前进,从东到西横穿美国。3B由下文的“he asked a priest what the telephone was used for”可知,此处指电话
13、。他注意到墙上装着一部金色的电话。4A由关键词“sign”和“$10,000 per call”可知,此处应选read,意思是“(指示牌、信上等)写着”。标牌上写着“每次通话一万美金”。下文中的“the sign under it read 40 cents per call”是信息提示。5D根据语境可知,Jay感到好奇,故用curious“好奇的”。6B由下文尤其是“you could talk to God”和“this is heaven”可知,答案为B。这是天堂的专线,你可以和上帝通话。7D牧师回答了问题,结合常识可知,Jay要表示感谢。Jay谢过牧师,继续前行。8B由空后的“in D
14、es Moines, Iowa”可知,这里指Jay途中的下一站。9C 由10空后的“if this was the same kind of telephone he had seen in Columbus”可知,此处表示相同的电话。10D wonder“想知道”。看到另一个教堂里有一模一样的电话,Jay想知道这和他在Columbus看到的是不是同一种电话。11C由下文的“He got the very same reply as before”可知,Jay问了一个和在第一个教堂里问的一样的问题,这里问电话的用途是什么。12A结合文意可知,Jay在旅行,下文的“Jay decided to
15、travel to”也是暗示。13D由空后的“he saw the same looking golden telephone”可知,这里表示Jay在每一个(every)教堂里都看到了同一种电话。14B4空前的with表示的是“带有”,因此选项B符合语境,这里表示带有“$10,000 per call”的标牌。bear“带有(某种标记或外在特征)”。15A结合下文的“at Western Australia”和“My son, youre in Australia now”可知,这次Jay去澳大利亚旅行。16D 由空后的“there was the same looking golden te
16、lephone”可知,此处用again符合语境。这里表示Jay再一次看到了同一种电话。17B由空后的“this time the sign under it read40 cents per call”可知,上下文之间是逻辑上的转折关系。但是这次标牌上写着“每次通话40分”。18D看到相同的电话在不同地方的通话费用竟然如此不同,Jay有点惊讶。surprised“惊讶的”,符合语境。disappointed“失望的”;frustrated“沮丧的”;annoyed“恼怒的”。19C相对于“$10,000 per call”,“40 cents per call”是十分便宜的,故选C。20A 结
17、合“this is heaven”可推知,电话费用便宜的原因是这只是本地通话。local call“本地通话”,故选A。.阅读七选五How to save money during your studiesOne of the biggest factors(因素) about studying at university is that you might be away from your parents for the first time. _1_ If youre worried about that, the following tips can tell you how to s

25、o do sth.“被期盼做某事”的用法可知该处填to care。2onspend time on sth.“花时间做某事”。3later根据设空后的提示词than可知该空填late的比较级later。4marries该空缺少谓语,且表现在的状况,应用一般现在时,又主语为单数形式,故填marries。5working设空前是介词by,故该空填动名词作介词的宾语。6are employed该句缺少谓语,故该空应填谓语,employ与主语为被动关系,故用一般现在时的被动语态,填are employed。7somein some countries “在某些国家”,该空填some,与下一句中的oth
26、ers呼应。8countriesdeveloping countries“发展中国家”。9But/While设空前后两句为转折关系,故用转折连词But/While。10Actually所填词在句中作状语,应用副词形式,填Actually。.短文改错Its not polite you to arrive at a dinner more than 15 minutes later in foreign countries.
