D 从后面的the husband中可以得到足够的启示。 5. D 这一用法在本文中出现了多次。 6. A works意为“作品”。《蒙娜丽莎》应是达·芬奇的“作品”之一。 7. C 与light相对应的是darkness。 8. A 明暗对比是绘画技巧、方法之一。 9. B 在其画中大量使用几何形状,说明他喜爱“数学”。 10. B 和circles相当的自然是“round”shapes。 11. A 圆形的东西,四个选项中只有balls肯定是。 12. A 根据常识,B、C、D三项无法用几何图形来表达。 13. B the woman指的就是“画”中的蒙娜丽莎。 14. C 由后面的rocks可以联想到mountains。 15. C 在其它的一些画中也能看到rocks,说明rocks“反复地、再三地” 出现在他的画中。 16. C to the side指侧向一边,符合画的意境。 17. B 保持身体姿势怎样用hold。 18. D 前面谈的就是蒙娜丽莎的“坐”姿。 19. D 仿效这种坐姿的应是艺术“模特”。 20. A 模特应该是在供人们作画时才摆出这种坐姿的。 B 整体把握:本文作者以自述的口吻讲述了自己在一家餐馆遇到的一件事;他被侦探误以为是要寻找的人, 幸亏餐馆的老板与侍者都认识他才避免了麻烦。 1. C notice (无意中)注意到, understand 表示“理解”, 而由全文可知“I”对“a man ”并不认识, 所以排除A、D. 2. D as if 似乎。根据上文“kept glancing in my direction”可判断出这个人似乎认识作者。since 因为;even if 即使;though虽然。 3. B have sthopen把……打开。根据下文的内容可判断出这个人把报纸打开了, 摊放在自己的面前。flat (使)变平;cut 切(割);fix 使固定。 4. C pretend 假装。这个人把报纸摊放在自己面前假装在看报纸, 实际上是在监视我。 5. A see看见, 看到。从上文作者对这个人的注意可判断出see是正确答案。find 发现, 表示经过努力寻找到的事实, 与上下文的内容矛盾。guess 猜测;learn了解。 6. D 根据上文“waiting for the food I had ordered to arrive ”可判断出这时服务员给作者端来了食物。menu 菜单;bill 账单;paper 纸。 7. B familiar 熟悉。下文“all the waiters in the restaurant knew me ”说明作者与饭店里的服务员都很熟悉。direct 直接的;strange 奇怪的;funny 有趣的。 8. A chat with与……闲谈。根据常识可判断出比较熟悉的人们见面后常会闲聊几句。look at 看着;laugh at 嘲笑;talk about 谈论。 9. B 从上文“he seemed even more puzzled ”可以看出, 随着时间的推移, 他越来越感到迷惑不解。 10. C clear 清晰。根据上文内容可判断出情况变得非常清晰, 饭店里的所有服务员都认识作者。true 真实的;hopeful 有希望的;possible 可能的。 11. D 下文“He came into the kitchen”表明这个人去了厨房。 12. A 从下文可看出这个人离开了饭店。 13. A 由于这个人对作者感到迷惑不解, 也引起作者想知道他想做什么。wish后不接名词或代词作宾语, 所以不能用what 提问。 14. C follow 跟随。从上下文知道, 这个人是一位侦探, 他跟随着作者来到饭店。meet 遇见;catch捉住;discover 发现。 15. D 定语从句was looking for 修饰the man, 他要寻找的人。 16. B 根据上文“what ?”I said可判断出作者对此感到惊讶。care 关心;worry 担心;regret后悔。 17. A must 必须。饭店老板对作者与照片上的人如此相像表示肯定。 18. B make a mistake 弄错。饭店的人员对作者很熟悉, 知道这位侦探搞错了。 19. D lucky 幸运的。根据下文“I came to a restaurant where I’m known ”可判断出作者感到幸运。 20. C otherwise 否则。常与虚拟语气连用。如果不是去一家与服务员熟悉的饭店可能会陷入麻烦。 C : 1. D。他周游世界因为他是一个商人,因此说他喜欢他的工作和旅游。 2. B。因为外出经商,旅途一定劳累,因此选B,tiring 表示“使人劳累的”。 3. D。limit 表示“限度”,此句的意思是“他把最后的一点力气都用在旅途上”。 4. C。inside him 的意思是“在他的体内”。 5. A。此句的意思是“他骨头里的物质变得虚弱”。 6. C。从上文提到的原因可知,他不能站立。 7. A。make a move 意为“移动”。 8. B。get over 为固定搭配,意为“爬过、克服、熬过、恢复、原谅”。 9. B。give up hope 表示“放弃希望”。 10. D。从下文得知快乐的思想可以治疗他的疾病,因此可以判断unhappy thoughts导致他体内的bad chemical changes。 11. A。instead 表示“代替”,即他想用快乐的生活来替代服药。 12. C。or 为并列连词,和happy thoughts并列的就是laughter了。 13. D。experiment为不及物动词,意思是“进行实验、做试验”,常与介词 on, with 连用。 14. A。“during the day(在白天)与下文的 at night(在晚上)相对。 15. B。decide 在此为及物动词,意为“判定”,这里是现在分词短语作原因状语。 16.

Not discouraged easily, I remembered 5 a lamp by the bed when I deposited my luggage 6 in the day. I found the bed in the 7 and then the lamp, but when I switched it on, nothing 8 ! I thought that perhaps if I opened the curtains I might be able to use whatever light comes in from the 9 to find another lamp. So I 10 my way slowly across the room to the curtains and... no drawstring! I finally stumbled(跌跌撞撞地走)around 11 I found a desk lamp which actually 12 ! That evening I discovered in a whole new way just how dark the world 13 be and how necessary light is! But even more necessary than 14 light is the light that shines from people --the light of 15 and faith. Because, for many people, the world is a dark and 16 place. For someone today just may be stumbling in discouragement or sadness or fear and in 17 of some light. So let your light shine. Whatever light you 18 may be a beacon of hope and encouragement.

A. put out B. give out C. get over D. set up 答案与解析: A 1.C. 根据上文的retire可知,他想离开自己的工作,故选C项leave。 2.A.。leisurely悠闲的,慢悠悠的;lonely孤独的;orderly有秩序的,有条理的;friendly友好的。根据常识可知,人们退休了以后,生活常是悠闲的,故选A项。 3.C. 退休了以后,老人可以更好的享受家庭的乐趣,选C项enjoy最佳。 4.B. go off开火、爆炸,(电灯等)熄灭;get by维持生计,设法过活;pass on转交,递给;work away连续不停地工作。根据前面的extended family和miss the paycheck可推知,老人生活上悠闲,但没有了工资,生活可能不如以前宽松,但他们能设法维持,故选B项。 5.D. 根据上文retire和下文的his good worker,作为老板,自己的好员工要走了,自然惋惜,故选D项sorry是符合情理的。 6.A. 从下文得知,老木匠的最后一座房子造的很不好,是因为他不用心。所以此处表示转折,选A项but,意为“他虽然答应了,但并不用心工作”。注意while是并列连词,表示前后对比,而非转折。 7.B. 根据前文的bad workmanship和下文可知,老木匠用的建筑材料是劣质的,故inferior正确。 8.D. 根据前文的retire、go和asked if he could build just one more house可知,这是老木匠为老板建造的最后一座房子,是他一生事业的结束,故选D项end。 9.C. 作为老板,自己让人建设的房子完工了,自然来查看一下。下文也提到他并非来购买、出售或修理房子,排除了其他选项。 10.C. 从下文的If he had only known he was building his own house可以看出,老板把刚刚建设的房子作为礼物(gift)送给了老木匠,应该给他房门钥匙,故A项key正确。 11.A. 根据上下文可知,这是老板给老木匠的礼物,以表示感谢。 12.B. 根据上文的shock和下句If he had only known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently可知,老木匠为自己做的蠢事感到羞耻、后悔,故选B项shame正确。 13.A. “So it is with sb.”是一常见句型,意为“……也如此”。注意此题易错选as,误认为是定语从句。As可以引导定语从句,但注意是此句末的标点是句号,因此缺少先行词,无法构成定语从句。其他两选项意思、结构均不正确。 14.D. 根据文意,作者在向我们阐述一个道理,我们的生活也象老木匠建房子一样,没有投入全身心,即用的努力少(less),因此,选D项符合文意。 15.A. 根据上下文,开始我们没有觉察,但后来当我们认识到自己的愚蠢行为时,为时已晚。所以,此处选择realize是正确的。 16.B. 根据上文If we could do it over, we would do it much differently.和But可知,我们虽认识到错误,但有些事情是无法重新再做一遍的。Step forward自告奋勇;go back回到、重新再来;come out(太阳、星星……)出现;look around环视、环顾。四个词组中只有go back有此意。 17.C. 根据下文可知,作者在引用某人(曾经说过)的话,所以用副词once最合适。其他选项与文意不符。 18.A. 根据上文,老木匠既有经验,技艺也高超,但态度不端正犯了大错。因此,一个人做事的态度决定结果,故选attitude是正确的。 19.D. Make a choice/ choices是常见的搭配,意为“作出选择”。 20.B. 根据最后一段和上文中的therefore可知,作者是在告戒读者:我们既然明白了这个道理,“建造自己的房子时”就明智些吧!所以wisely正确。 B 1. A estimate意为“据估计”, suggest为“建议、暗示”,inform是“通知、告知”,因死亡数据只是一个大概数据,故应用A。 2. B 此外应缺少名词,故排除D项,A、C项词形错误,故应选B项 effects。 1. D increasing 正在增加,为进行时态。 2. C die from 强调外因,die of强调内因。 3. A in 与数字或数量连用,表示比例,意思为 4. B currently 为副词,为时下,当下之意“每”。 5. B cause 为导致某事结果的直接诱因,reason 指说明某事的理由,excuse 为借口,result为结果。w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m 6. C link to 与…有关,分词短语作后置定语,connected to 是两物相连接的,相连的。 7. D It+be+adj+to do 为固定句型,stop to do 是停下来去做另一件事。Stop doing 是停止当前的事。 8. B do 表强调,有现在时态和过去时态,在肯定句中进行强调,后加动词原形。 9. C who 为特殊疑问句,引导定语从句, 10. D 此处缺少形容词,故用 successful 11. B include doing sth ,attend 为参加一些自助活动,而并非组织活动,故排除D项。 12. A attending or following为并列关系,follow directions为按照说明去做。 13. C be worth doing 为固定短语,意为“尝试”语意好于“doing” 14. B where 引导定语从句,先行词是areas,在从句中担任地点状语。 15. B instead of代替,而不是,instead是相反之意。 16. B the sooner……the more越早越。强调终止吸烟的时间。 17. A return返回,回来,血压回到正常。back为副词,其它语意不符。 18. C that(特定的)那一类、那一个,it特指同一个,one泛指同一类。 C 这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者通过自己晚上在黑暗中找灯这件小事,想到世上人人都可能处于“黑暗”之中,如果我们都能用自己的“爱心”之灯去温暖他人,世界将变的更加美好。 1.D. 根据上文晚上头顶的灯坏了,可知我找寻钥匙孔有困难,故选D. difficult。 2.A. 根据下文可知,“我”已经把门打开。Manage to do sth. 表成功地做某事。 3.B. 根据文意可知,由于晚上没有灯,“我”只好摸索前进,只有felt表此意。 4.D. 根据“but no switch”可以推知,“我”认为那里曾经安装了开关,因此在那里摸索,结果并没有,只有once能表示此意。 5.C. 上文提到这是一个旅馆,自己是暂时住到这里,排除了A项。从下文一句when I deposited my luggage可推知C项正确,注意spot此处意为“注意到,看到,发现”。 6.B. 从上文remembered可知,“我”在那天早些时候发现有开关,现在仍然记得,故选B。 7.B. 因为是晚上,所以选择dark。 8.A. 根据文意排除了C、D。句子的主语是nothing而非lamp,故动词operated不正确。因此,只有A项正确。 9.B. 根据文意和下文curtains可推知,“我”现在处在黑暗中,只能拉开窗帘,靠外部街道上的光来找到另一盏灯,故选B。 10.C. 根据文意和下文slowly across the room可知,“我”现在摸索着去拉窗帘。Make one’s way意为“前往,到……去”,符合文意。 11.B. 根据文意和下文actually可知,我最终找到了灯,故选until。 12.C. 根据主语a desk lamp和副词actually可知,这盏灯亮了。此意只有work可以表达。 13.A. 根据文意,“我”此时心有所感,世界有时是多么黑暗,而灯是如此必要!can可以表示“有时会……,时而可能”,故选A项。 14.D. 根据文意和下句the light that shines from people可知,人们“内心的灯光”比实际的灯光更有必要。Physical在此意为“物质的,有形的”。 15.B. 由文意可知,我们心中应该有“爱和信任”之灯,才能战胜discouragement、sadness、fear,故选love。 16.A. 由文意和dark可知,有时我们中许多人会处在黑暗和孤独的世界,故选lonely。 17.D. 由文意可知,当人们失望、难过和害怕时会需要帮助,因此选D项need。 18.B. 由上文So let your light shine.可知,作者在鼓励我们要主动去帮助别人,故选B。 19.C. 细心揣摩文意可知,我们的爱心之灯在茫茫的黑暗中是如此渺小,好象是森林中的一只蜡烛,故选no more than正确。 20.A. 由文意可知,黑暗再强大,也没有足够的力量扑灭小如蜡烛的“爱心之灯”,故选A项put out最佳。 三 A The purpose of a letter of application(求职信) is to help you to “sell” yourself.

The watchmaker examined my watch and said: "The regulator (校准器) is to be pushed up 5 your watch is four minutes 6 ." I tried to stop him, tried to 7 him understand that my watch kept perfect time, but he did not listen to me and pushed the regulator. My beautiful watch began to gain time.

He dug for eight hours...12 hours...24 hours...1 hours...then, in __13__ hour, he pulled back a large stone and heard his son's __14__. He screamed his son's name, "ARMAND!" He heard back, "Dad!?!

C。根据后面的 any necessary facts 判断,不要“遗漏”任何必要的事实。 4. D。keep in mind 是固定短语,意思是“记住”。 5. C。表示可能,后面跟不定式只能用 likely,其余选项都不正确。 6. D。根据下文的主句判断,前面是条件句,因此选 if。 7. B。从后面主句中 the rest of the letter may not be… 可得出答案,如果前面的一些句子不能“赢得”读者的注意的话。w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m 8. D。根据上文,如果起初几句话不能引起读者注意的话,其余部分就可能不会再“读”了。 9. A。根据前面两个 to 得出答案。 10. A。因为是应聘者,所以在报纸上看到的是“广告”。 11. C。根据上文,应聘者是从报纸上看到的招聘广告,经过“研究”之后才来应聘的。 12. D。根据后面的 product(产品)判断应是“使用”。 13. A。根据下文判断要弄清楚具体应聘的工作,以“避免”笼统性。 14. B。根据上下文所叙述的是“应聘”之事可得出答案。 15. D。根据句意“在信中提供的是什么”得出答案,而supply是“供给、供应”不符句意。 16. B。根据前面的“first”一词判断答案是“beginner”。 w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m 17. D。根据句意“你做的任何工作可称做“经验”(experience)得出答案。 18. A。根据下文得出答案“为了应聘‘做’一些特殊的要求或需要”。 19. D。根据后面“随信内附一个贴有邮票,写有你的地址的信封”是一个好的“建议”。 20. B。根据上一句所说,这样“更容易”使雇者与你联系 B 本文是根据美国著名作家(Mark Twain)马克•吐温的故事改编的一篇记叙文。故事讲述的是“一块精美、走时准确手表最终成为废物”的全过程。选项设计上侧重训练学生的英语语感和词义辨析能力。 1.C for certain“无疑地,确定地”,是一个固定用法,相当于without doubt, for sure;for certainty应为for a certainty才对。 2.A keep time“走时准确”,是习惯用法,tell time“报时”,observe time “守时”,strike表“鸣钟”时,常用结构为“strike the hours(每小时报时一次); strike 12这种刚敲12点”。 3.B wind sth. up“上(钟或表)的弦;上发条”。 4.D set a clock / watch “对钟;对表;将闹钟等定时”。 5.A as用来引导表原因的状语从句。 6.D 从上文中的be pushed up得知,手表的时间慢了四分钟,而不是快了四分钟。 7.C make sB.do sth. / get sB.to do sth. “使某人做某事”,此题之后接了省to的不定式understand,所以用make。 8.A (指钟表)快(慢)于正确的时间,常用gain或lose。如:This watch neither gains nor loses.这表不快也不慢。go只表示“钟表在走(时)”。 9.B leave sth. far behind“使某事处于落后状态”,A、C、D都是不及物动词。 10.C 表转折,意为:我原指望他迅速将表校对,可是他要我一周后才来拿。However是副词,常用逗号隔开。 11.C slow作动词,slow down“减慢速度”。 12.A 通过上下文得知作者已经去过了两个修表匠,现在要去第三个修表匠那儿。 13.B took sth. to pieces “拆开,拆散”,在这里指把表拆成零碎。broke“打碎”; tore“撕毁”; cut“切碎”。 14.D 介词in表示“从当时算起再过多长时间”。 15.B but前有实义动词do时,but后要接省to的动词不定式。 16.A keep(on)doing sth., 意为“不停地做……”。taking “拿去”;bringing“拿来”; fetching“去拿来”; carrying“提起,拿起”,无方向性。 17.B tell the time 指“能够看懂钟表上的时间;看钟表等而说出时间”。不要受中文影响而错用understand。 18.D get 是连系动词,其后要接形容词作表语,可排除A、C,再从逻辑上分析,可排除B项。 19.C cost表示“某物花费多少钱”,有“等价交换”之意。 20.A another表示“另一个(与之不同的一个)”;the other表“两个当中的另一个”;one表“数量(一个)”;one more“买了一个不够,还要再买一个”。 C 本文是一篇故事情节较强的记叙文。文章讲述了“父亲如何履行自己曾对儿子许下的诺言”,故事生动、感人,极富吸引力。 1.B only to do sth.“结果却,不料”,作结果状语,表示该结果在主语的预料之外;现在分词作结果状语,表示由主句所产生的逻辑上的结果。 realize在脑海里经过思维“认识到,了解”;find在表面上就能“发现, 看出”。 2.A 这四个选项都是英语成语,根据本段第一句an 8.2 earthquake almost flattened America判断,选择A项。 3.D 从意义上判断,“他想起了他曾对他儿子许下的诺言”;memorized是“背诵,熟记”。 4.A 从结构上分析,该句是省略了谓语动词的省略句,省略谓语之后,意义仍然清楚,如不省略动词,则使用第三人称单数happens。从意义上分析,可排除C、D项。 5.A 表示“流泪”,这几个动词都可能表示这种意义,但句式搭配不同,其表现形式分别为Tears fill his eyes;Tears come into his eyes;He bursts into tears。 6.B 从上下文意义判断,“他不停地想起他对他儿子许下的诺言”。 7.B 动词和动词短语是完形填空设项的重点之一。此题要分清这四项的不同含义。dig及物动词,“掘(土),挖”;dig through“(为找……)在……里挖掘”;dig out “发掘出” dig into“钻研”。 8.D 从结构上分析,应该用现在分词作伴随状语,用and则表示并列,用said。 9.C Come on表示劝说,不耐烦,意为“得啦!,来!”,可用Come, Come,代替。 10.D 从词义上判断one line“一句话(台词)”,A项中的one word干扰性较大,它表示“一个词”,如用words 是正确的。 11.A “介词+反身代词”有固定含义,for oneself独自地,亲自;by oneself单独地;of oneself自行地,自动地;to oneself 对(着)自己。 12.C 这四个词都有“活着的”之意,live仅用作定语,作表语用living ,alive 。living和alive在意义上有细微差别,living可作定语和表语,含有“本以为死了,然而还活着”,又如:I can’t believe my first teacher is still living。alive作表语和后置定语,其含义与dead相对应。lively“生动的,活跃的”。 13.D “在第3小时的时候,……”,序数词之前要用定冠词。 14.B 注意这四个词的区别:sound “(各种)声音” ;voice “(人们说话的)嗓音” noise“(不悦耳的)嘈音”;tone“(人们说话的)语气,语调”。 15.B 这是表将来的虚拟语气,主句中用would +动词原形,从下文的句子中也能找到类似的句子。 16.A 从意义上判断,“如果你来救我,他们也会得救。”是条件状语从句,应该用if 引导,然而选项中没有if,when与if同义,引导条件状语从句。even if 引导让步状语从句。 17.C 此题包含一个固定句型:There are … left. “还有……剩余下来”。 18.C 14 …out of 33 意为:33人中有14人活下来。out of “从……里面”。特别注意此题中的介词与前面的left没有任何联系。如果没有意识到这点,极可能会选错。 19.D 从意义上判断,“房屋倒塌时,自然形成的三角空隙”。而make room; make space 意为“(有意识地)为……腾出空间”。 20.A 从上下文意义判断,此句为原因状语从句。www.ks5u.com 四 A Once upon a time the colors of the world started to quarrel. Green said, "Clearly I am the most important. I am the sign of life and hope. I was chosen for grass, trees and leaves. Without me, all animals would ___1__." Blue interrupted, "You only think about the __2__, but consider the sky and the sea.__3__ the water that is the basis of life and drawn up by the clouds from the deep sea.Without my peace, you would all be __4__."

Red could stand it __9__ and he shouted out, "I am the ruler of all of you. I am the color of danger and of bravery. I am willing to __10__ truth. I am also the color of passion and of love." Then came Purple and Indigo (深蓝). … The colors went on boasting, each convinced of his or her own __11__. Their quarreling became louder and louder. Suddenly there was a startling flash of bright lightening thunder. Rain started to pour down __12__. The colors crouched (蜷缩) down __13__, drawing close to one another for comfort. w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m In the midst of the clamor (叫嚷), rain began to speak, "You foolish colors, fighting __14__ yourselves, each trying to dominate __15__. Don't you know that you were each made for a special purpose, __16__? Join hands with __17__ and come to me." Doing as they were told, the colors __18__ and joined hands. They formed a colorful rainbow. From then on, whenever a good rain ___19__ the world, a rainbow appears in the sky.

My mother was a domestic.Through her work, she observed that __3__ people spent a lot more time reading than they __4__ watching television. She announced that my brother and I __5__ watch two to three pre-selected TV programs during the week. With our free time, we had to read two books each from the Detroit Public Library and __6__ her written book reports. She would mark them up with check marks and highlights. Years later we realized her marks were a __7__. My mother was illiterate. w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m When I entered high school I was a(n) __8__, but not for long. I wanted the fancy clothes. I wanted to __9__ the guys. I went from being an A-student to a B-student to a C-student. One night my mother came home from __10__ her various jobs and I complained about not having enough Italian knit shirts. She said, “Okay, I'll give you all the money I make this week scrubbing floors and cleaning bathrooms, and you can buy __11__ food and pay the bills. With everything __12__, you can have all the Italian knit shirts you want.” I was very __13__ with that arrangement but once I got through allocating money, there was __14__ left. I realized my mother was a financial genius to be able to __15__ our heads and any kind of food on the table, __16__ buy clothes. I also realized that immediate satisfaction wasn't going to get me anywhere. Success required intellectual preparation. I went back to my __17__ and became an A-student again, and eventually I __18__ my dream and I became a doctor.

C 根据句意:但是人们现在比过去寿命高。used to表示“过去经常做……”,暗示现在并不如此,此处指过去的情况,正好与句义相符。would可表示“过去经常”,但不含“今昔对比”之意。注意该词组与be used to的区别,后者意为“习惯于……”, to为介词。D项之所以不对,是因为在以下词组中,当不定式省略时,通常要保留不定式符号to,如:used to, be going to, mean to, ought to, try to, plan to等。 2. B 根据下文中的定语从句所表示的意义进行判断,这里所填入的单词应该表示“衰老的结果”这一意义。effect意为“结果,影响”,正是此意。function“功能,机能,作用”;affect“影响,感动”,是动词;sign“标记”。解题时要注意effect和affect拼写只相差一个字母,但effect是名词而affect是动词。 3. D 根据主句内容,which引导非限制性定语从句,which表示前面的“衰老的结果”,即:衰老的结果最终导致死亡。result in“使发生,导致”;lead in无此搭配,在表示“导致”时,应为lead to;give in “让步,屈服”;run into“陷入”,常指陷入困境。 4. D 根据上下文及信息词cells可确定句中是指所有的部位(器官)。而其他三项所指的都是身体的具体部位。 5. C 此句中的did是用来代替前面的动词function,以避免重复。因为这里有一个表示过去的时间状语in childhood and teenage years,所以只能用一般过去时。 6. B protection“保护,保护物”,和介词against或from连用,译为“保护……免遭……”。此句义为“身体此时的免疫力下降,易于患病”;energy“精力,活力”; vigor“力量,活力”;power“权力,力气”。 w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m 7. A likely, possible和probable它们三者都表示“可能”,均可以构成:It is possible / probable / likely +that从句。但probable 和possible不能用于sb.is possible / probable to do sth.句型中。如:It will be possible / probable / likely for you to get there before eight o'clock.你有可能在8点钟之前赶到那里。 You will be likely to get there before 8 o'clock. 你很有可能在8点钟之前赶到那里。alike“相似的”,不符句意。 8. B根据句义:有一些相关的原因可能促使人衰老。contribute to“有助于,起作用,促成”,此意义符合句义。attend to“专心于”;add to“增加,把……添加到……”;devote to“致力于,献身于”。这四个词组中的to都是介词,要注意它和不定式符号to的区别。 9. A此句与下文相对应,根据下文第十一空之后出现的replace (代替)可确定该空选replaced;reborn“新生的,复活的”;recovered“恢复”;surrendered “屈服” 10. C 根据此句的谓语动词decreases可确定其主语应为the number,表示 “……的数量”,作主语时,应该使用单数的谓语动词;a number of“许多,大量”常用来修饰复数名词,做主语时,要使用复数谓语动词;the amount of“……的数量是”,常接不可数名词;a great deal of “大量的”,后接不可数名词。 11. D 根据这一段里谈到的不同情况的细胞,上文用了some cells of the body不能再生,很显然下文中用other body cells可以被新的细胞所代替。这样other与上文的some相呼应。其他词都不能起此作用。 12. C 根据上文的意思,这里还在继续谈论第二种可再生细胞,即:the new cells。 13. C be capable of是固定搭配,表示“有……的能力”。句中指:老年人的新细胞的发展能力不如年轻人的强。其他介词不与capable搭配。 14. A这一段的内容是和上段相对应的,所需词相当于上段第一句中的cause,指造成一种事实或现象的原因,所以选用factor,表“因素,要素”。其他几个词虽然语义相近,但所强调的重点并不相同。effect“结果”;reason“原因”,用来说明一种看法或行为的理由;element“元素”。 15. C 此句意是:另一个导致衰老的因素是细胞内本身的变化。由此可得出,空格处需填一个作同位语的名词或代词,那么四个选项中,就只有themselves可担当此任,即:反身代词themselves做cells的同位语。 16. C 本句是被动句式,其主动句式是:It is known that some of the protein chemicals in cells change with age and become less elastic。意为:大家知道细胞内有些蛋白质随着年龄的增大而改变,变得没有那么有弹性。又如:It is known that a new hospital will be built here. = A new hospital is known to be built here。在叙述一般性事物时,动词know之后的不定式不用进行式和完成式。 17. A hang在这里是用作系动词,后面须接一个形容词作表语,类似的动词还有: rise,shine,sit,lie等,如:The sun rose red. (= The sun rose and it is red.)。本句除了要注意hang是系动词外,还要注意时态的选择。因为通篇文章所谈论的是人人都要变老的客观事实,所用时态都为一般现在时,不能用进行时。 18. B 根据句义“这就是为什么老人的身高会收缩的原因”,因此表“收缩”的只有shrink;increase“增加”和1engthen“变长”与句义不符; decrease“减少”,一般强调量的减少,也不符合题义。特别说明的是shrink这个词平常用得不太多,但它仍然是中学英语“新课标”词汇,它的过去式形式是shrank或shrunk,过去分词形式是shrunk 或shrunken。 19. D 根据上下文内容应选pass on,表示“把……传给另一个,转移”,句中store and pass on information指“储存和传递信息”,符合句意。其他三个选项都不符句意。pass away“去世”;pass by“经过,从……旁边走过”;pass off“逐渐消失,停止”。 20. D 从通篇文章所叙述的人的衰老的过程分析,我们应该在此处选填process。表示“自然的过程,进程”,符合上下文意义;即:衰老可能影响这种进程和改变信息;improvement“改良”;procession“队伍,行列”;approach“方式,方法”。 C 这是一篇记叙文。作者出生于一个贫穷的单亲家庭,然而在母亲的帮助与教导下,他克服了重重困难,从后进生一跃名列前茅,成为优秀生,并实现了自己的梦想,成为了一名医生。这一成功的事例说明:在教育子女上,父母才是最好的老师。 1.A 从下文可知,我小时候就开始有了信念。w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m 2.C 接着指出是什么信念,梦想成为一名医生。 3.C 据母亲观察,成功人士花在阅读上的时间要比在看电视上多得多。 4.D 此处使用did 代替前文的spent, 避免重复。 5.A 由announced 得知,我和弟弟每周只能看三到四个预先挑选好的电视节目。 6.B 由上下文可知,母亲非常严厉。我们每人必须阅读从底特律公共图书馆借来的两本书,还要上交读书心得。present sth. to sb.把某物呈交给某人。 7.D 由My mother was illiterate.得知,此处是一个计谋。 8.A 由but 推测出:读中学时,我曾是个优等生,但好景不长。 9.B 原因是:图漂亮衣服,想和别人出去闲荡。hang out 闲荡。 10.C 由下文scrubbing floors and cleaning bathrooms可知,此处意为:母亲干完各种活儿回到家。working 在此用作及物动词,意为:完成,干完。 11.D 此处是buy sb.sth.的结构。意为:由你来替这个家买伙食、付账单。 12.A 此处是“with + 宾语+ 宾补”结构。money 与leave 之间是被动关系。剩下的钱你都拿去买意大利针织衫吧。 13.B 因为由自己理财并从中想赚一点钱,很显然,这样的决定让我开心不已。。 14.D 由but 可知并非如我所愿。但当我把该花的钱都分配完毕,手里已分文不剩。 15.C 我的母亲不愧是个理财能手,她能让我们有地方住、有各样的食物吃,更不用说买衣服了。keep a roof over one’s head有地方住;put an idea into one’s head使想起;gave an impression on留下印象;have eyes in the back of one’s head多留心不露声色。 16.A let alone更不用说;let out 使放出;let in 使进入;leave alone 不理会,不理睬。 17.C 通过这件事,我还意识到,一时的满足并不会给我带来什么成就,而成功需要智力上的准备。于是我又发奋努力学习。 18.B 最终我实现了自己当医生的梦想。fulfill 履行工作,完成任务,达到愿望。 19.A 由上文可知,我母亲,她是这样一个女人,粗通文墨、家境贫寒,却利用家长的身份改变了世上很多人的生活。 20.C 由上文得知:没有那件事比对子女的养育更重要了。 五 A Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to __1__ in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me. They don’t act in the __2__ ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too __3__ for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of __4__. One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I sat down beside her. “Mom, I have a question to ask you. Is there __5__ between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice. She didn’t answer immediately. She __6__ her head and continued to sew the quilt. w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m I was very worried because I thought I had _7_ her. I was _8__ and I didn’t know what I should do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words: “Susan,” she said thoughtfully, “Look at this thread.Sometimes it __9_, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt __10__. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread.It can hardly be seen __11_, but it’s really there. Love is __12__.” I listened carefully but I __13__ her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly __14_ seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both looked __15 _. It seemed both of them had had a serious illness. After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father __16__ on the country road. “Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day. “Susan, don’t __17__ me.” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom.”__18__ his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply. Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and __19__. But from this experience, I understand that love is just __20__ in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm. 1.A.keep fit B.rise early C.earn money D.collect money 2.A.magic B.romantic C.fantastic D.attractive 3.A.simple B.easy C.relaxing D.luxurious 4.A.the question B.question C.reach D.control 5.A.feeling B.love C.quarrel D.smile 6.A.raised B.shook C.nodded D.bowed 7.A.hurt B.injured C.wounded D.harmed 8.A.in great surprise B.in a great embarrassment C.with deep depression D.at extreme sorrow 9.A.happens B.comes about C.appears D.occurs 10.A.warm and soft B.hot and hard C.thin and cool D.strong and durable 11.A.somewhere and sometime B.anywhere or anytime C.more or less D.here and there 12.A.inside B.outside C.faraway D.nearby 13.A.could believe B.couldn’t understand C.wouldn’t recognize D.might know 14.A.got sick B.got stuck C.threw up D.became disabled 15.A.quite healthy B.very pale C.fairly red D.much surprised 16.A.jump high B.go hurriedly C.run fast D.walk slowly 17.A.think about B.talk with C.worry about D.laugh at 18.A.Reading B.Seeing C.Saying D.Writing 19.A.fresh roses B.gold ring C.sweet kisses D.beautiful jewelry 20.A.a thread B.a needle C.the cloth D.the cotton B He was 11 years old and went fishing every chance he got from the dock at his family’s cabin on an island in the middle of a New Hampshire lake. On the day __1__ the bass (鲈鱼) season opened, he and his father were fishing early in the evening, __2__ sunfish with worms. Then he tied on a small lure (鱼饵) and practiced casting. When his pole __3__, he knew something huge was __4__. His father watched __5__ as the boy skilfully worked the fish alongside the dock. Finally, he very carefully lifted the __6__ fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, __7__ it was a bass. It was 10 P.M.-- two hours before the season opened. The father looked at the fish, then at the boy. “You’ll have to __8__, son,” he said. “Dad!” cried the boy. “There will be other fish,” said his father. “Not as big as this one,” cried the boy. __9__ no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he caught the fish, the boy could __10__ by his father’s firm voice that the decision was __11__. He slowly worked the hook out of the lip of the huge bass and lowered it into __12__. The creature moved its powerful body and __13__. The boy thought that he would never again see such a great fish. That was 34 years ago. Today, the boy is a successful architect in New York City. And he was __14__. He has never again caught such a magnificent fish as the one he __15__ that night long ago. But he does see __16__ fish again and again every time he comes up against a question of principles. As his father taught him, principles are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of principles__17__ difficult. Do we __18__ when no one is looking? We would if we __19__ to put the fish back when we were young. For we would have learned the truth. The decision to do right lives __20__ in our memory.

I stayed there a short while, breathing in the fresh sea air and __2__ a few words with one of the passengers, whom I had met earlier on the __3__. When I turned to go back to __4__, I happened to glance into the compartment (车厢) next to mine. Sitting there was a man who many years before had been my neighbor. He was a great __5__, I remembered; it used to take hours to __6__ him once he began a conversation. I was not at all __7__ when he went to live in another part of London. We had not met since then, __8__ did I wish to meet him now, when __9__ was about to begin. Luckily at that moment he was __10__ busy talking to the man opposite him to catch sight of me. I slipped back into my compartment, took down my two suitcases and carried them to the far end of the corridor so as to be ready to __11__ the train as soon as it stopped. The moment the train came to a halt (停止), I called a porter, who in no time at all had carried my luggage out of the station and __12__ me a taxi. As I drove towards my small hotel on the outskirts of the town, I breathed a deep sigh of relief at my__13__. There was little chance that I should __14__ my boring ex-neighbor again. When I reached the hotel, I went __15__ to my room and rested there until it was time for dinner. Then I went down to the dining room and __16__ a drink.

This is the view of forty geologists who have been analyzing 6 of pictures and other scientific 7 obtained by robot explorers in the sixties and seventies. To begin with, scientists thought the Red planet was as 8 as the Moon 9 dust storms swirling over vast sandy 10 .But now the picture is very different 11 mountains and valleys carved by 12 glaciers and rivers rushing and rumbling deep underground. In a report on the analysis of the Martian pictures Dr.Michael Car of the U.S.Geological Survey comments: “I am convinced 13 lots of water on Mars.” Any surface water will be in the 14 of ice.But it could save explorers from 15 to take so much 16 with them. The report says 17 Mars probably had a warmer climate in ages 18 due to its axis (轴) having been more tilted (倾斜) towards the sun. 19 signs of plant or animal life have been detected by instruments landed on Mars, 20 the landing vehicles have been sent there for a few years. 1.A.it is B.it C.it to be D.was 2.A.expected B.hoped C.required D.sent 3.A.to B.of C.more D.in 4.A.chances B.openings C.occasions D.possibility 5.A.quite B.very C.much D.more 6.A.a few B.many C.thousand D.thousands 7.A.skills B.news C.intelligence D.information 8.A.peaceful B.quiet C.lifeless D.dead 9.A.of B.with C.for D.through 10.A.deserts B.mountains C.rivers D.seas 11.A.from B.between C.for D.with 12.A.energetic B.great C.heavy D.powerful 13.A.there’s B.there’re C.here’s D.here’re 14.A.appearance B.way C.form D.shape 15.A.have B.having C.carry D.carrying 16.A.water B.ice C.equipment D.oxygen 17.A.what B.if C.how D.that 18.A.pass B.past C.ago D.before 19.A.Not B.No C.Nor D.Never 20.A.probably B.perhaps C.supposed D.although B Every country has its heroes.The heroes are the people the nation and especially the young people __1___.If you get a list of the heroes of a nation, it will tell you the potential(潜势;潜力) of that nation.For example, the youngsters in China nowadays take Yang Liwei __2__ ever since the launch(发射) of Shenzhou V. If today in America you ask the high school students to list their heroes, their __3__ would probably fall into three groups.The first group of heroes would be the rock stars-the people __4__ with rock music.There’s no doubt that such people have talent but one often wonders if one should __5__ rock stars as a model.The rock stars too often are mixed with drugs and their personal life is not all that __6__.The rock stars are rich and they wear the latest fashion styles.However, one should __7_ more in a hero than such things __8__ money and fine clothes. A second type of heroes for the American youth are sports star.__9__, you have a person who has a talent in one area- sports.However, too often the personal of the sports star is __10__ disorder.Too frequently drugs and drinking are a part of __11__ of the sports stars. A third group of heroes are TV or movie stars.These people may have lots of __12_ talent and are quite handsome.However, the personal life of too many actors is quite sad and __13__ be held up as a model for young people. Today, the rock stars, the sportsmen and the actors have __14__ become the models of the youth in America.Really, do you hear a young person say that his __15__ is a doctor, a teacher or a scientist? These people are not __16__ and do not wear fashionable clothes.However, they are __17_ people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone. What is really sad is that the young try to __18__ their heroes.They like to wear the same clothes as theirs.If the heroes of today for the American youth are __19__ only to rock stars, sports and actors, the future does not look too __20__. 1.A.respect B.admire C.satisfy D.hold 2.A.on the tip of their tongue B.as a model C.to be admired D.to hear from 3.A.choice B.conclusion C.majority D.suggestion 4.A.interested B.connected C.excited D.pleased 5.A.take on B.think up C.put on D.hold up 6.A.simple B.mixed C.good D.bad 7.A.put B.gather C.spend D.be after 8.A.like B.besides C.with D.as 9.A.This time B.Instead C.However D.Again 10.A.little B.a bit C.kind of D.any 11.A.sports B.life C.clothes D.talent 12.A.teaching B.running C.acting D.speech 13.A.should not B.should C.must D.may not 14.A.both B.each one C.all D.none 15.A.dream B.husband C.wife D.hero 16.A.rich B.poor C.healthy D.kind 17.A.stupid B.talented C.terrible D.weak 18.A.persuade B.praise C.remember D.follow 19.A.enough B.limited C.powerful D.great 20.A.bright B.usual C.necessary D.important C My son Joey was born with clubfeet (畸形足). The doctors told us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally 1 would never run very well. The first three years of his life were spent in 2 . By the time he was eight, you 3 he had a problem when you saw him walk. The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during play, and Joey would 4 and play, too. We 5 told him that he probably wouldn’t be able to 6 as wall as the other children. So he didn’t know. In seventh grade he decided to go out for the cross country 7 . Every day he trained with the team. He worked harder and ran more than any of the others perhaps he 8 that the abilities that seemed to come 9 to so many others did not come naturally to him. Although the 10 team runs, only the top seven runners have the potential (可能性)to 11 points for the school. We didn’t tell him he probably would never 12 the team, so he didn’t know. He 13 to run four to five miles a day, every day even the day he had a 103 degree fever. I was 14 , so I went to look for him after school. I found him running all alone. I asked him how he felt, “ 15 ,” he said.He had two more miles to go. The sweat 16 his face and his eyes were glassy from his fever. Yet he 17 straight ahead and kept running.. We never told him he couldn’t run four miles with a 103 degree fever. So he didn’t know. Two weeks later, the name of the team runners were 18 . Joey was number six on the list. Joey had made the team. He was only in seventh the other six team members were all 19 . We never told him he shouldn’t 20 to make the team. We never told him he couldn’t do it, so he didn’t know.

Mitchell Joachim, an architect from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has a(n) _1_ vision. He pictures a day when homes will be created from __2__. Joachim's vision ___3__ an idea called pleaching (编织), where tree branches are grown so that they __4__ weave together. Since the growth patterns of trees are _5_ by wind and sunlight, it may be __6_ to control the way a tree develops. These Fabricated Tree House Habitats would use trees grown into shapes as housing. One of the __7_ of these designs is that trees would not have to be cut down __8_. "A 100 percent treehouse would take _9_ to create," Joachim said.__10_ the climate, a house could take anywhere from 5 to 30 years to grow. Fortunately, there's a way to __11_ the process. Joachim suggests including __12_ materials such as sod (草皮), grasses and living branches in the housing designs. "This material would be able to move __13_ the house grows," Joachim said. A home would become an actual ecosystem, a community of plants, animals, and bacteria working together. The trees would also give off water vapor that would assist in _14__ the homes. Solar panels and wind would help provide _15__. The tree homes might even have soil pockets, __16_ plants could grow from the structure itself. Work has already __17_ on Joachim's first design—a house made from 15 percent recycled and 15 percent living things. Joachim is confident about the __18__ of his work, as he uses natural products _19_ nature. "The environment and its study are very important.

After a couple of years, the guy finally graduated and decided to __3__ his studies overseas. Before leaving, he proposed marriage to the girl and promised to __4__ her for the whole life. The girl agreed, and with the guy's determination, the family finally __5__. Before he went abroad, they got engaged.They often sent their __6__ through emails and phone calls. Though it was hard, both never thought of giving up. One day, while the girl was on her way to work, she was ___7__ by a car. The collision (碰撞) on her brain has caused her to lose her voice. The girl did not want to be a ___8__ to him. She __9__ him saying that she did not wish to wait any longer. With the letter, she sent the ring back to him. w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m The girl decided to move away, hoping that she could completely forget __10__. In the new environment, the girl learnt the __11__ and started a new life. She told herself every day that she must __12__ the guy. One day, her friend came and told her that he was __13__. She asked her friend not to let him know what had happened to her. Since then, there wasn't any more __14__ of him. A year later, her friend came with an envelope, __15__ an invitation card for the guy's wedding. The girl was shattered (打击). When she opened the letter, she saw her own __16__ in it.

He was looking forward to 3 , when he would bring out his gold.Tonight he had an extra reason to hurry home. He was going to eat hot meat, which was 4 for him.

D 由下文可知,Joachim的主意与上面提到的不同。 2. A 由下文意义可知,这座房子是由活生生的树建成的。 3. C Joachim主意是建立在“将树枝编织在一起这种想法”上。用be based on表示“建立在……的基础上”。 4. B 由上文的pleaching,树枝在成长的过程中,“自然”编织在一起。 5. B 植物的生长受风和阳光的“影响”。 6. A 有可能控制树林生长的方式。 7. D 由上文“将树木自然长成房子的形状”,显然是指这种设计的优点。 8. B 这种设计的优点是不用将树砍倒来取木材,at ease“自由自在”。 9. D 由下文from 5 to 30 years to grow可知,此处意为“一座100%的活树房子要很多年才能建成”。 10. A.依靠自然的气候的条件,要5 到30年才能长出一座房子来。 11. A 由句中的副词Fortunately可知,有办法“加快”房子修建的进程。 12. C 由下文例出的材料sod, grasses and living branches判断,此处应为“生态材料”。 13. B 此处为时间状语从句,意为:在生长的过程中,这些材料能够动。 14. C 由上文“发出水蒸气”,自然可得出“使房子凉爽”。 15. B 根据主语“太阳能帆板和风”的功能推断,是给房子提供能源。 16. A 此处是非限制性定语从句,先行词soil pockets表示地点,所以用where。 17. D 由上下文可知,此项工程已经开始。并非“完成、控制或停止”。 18. D 由下文他说的The environment and its study are very important可知,此处表示“他深信他工作的重要性”。 19. B 他使用的是不破坏自然的天然材料。D项coming from与natural products的意义重复。 20. C 由上文的“尊重大自然”(respect nature),可得出“想当然,漠不关心”。think we are it 自鸣不凡;do it ourselves自作主张;put it like this解释。 B 本文是故事性记叙文。男孩到国外留学不得不与女友分离一段时间,可就在这段时间里,女孩遭受了巨大的不幸,失去了语言功能。男孩学成归来,并没有忘记最初的承诺,用独特的方式向心上人表达了“无声的爱”。 1. A 此处意为:尽管女孩深爱着男孩,但她却总是问他:“你爱我有多深?” 2. C 由上文“不善言辞”得知,这使得女孩非常的不安。 3. D 由overseas可知男孩决定去国外深造。 4. A 他向女孩求婚并发誓一辈子照顾好她。 5. B 女孩同意了,男孩的决心也使得她的家人做出了让步。give up 放弃;give away 捐赠;give out 放出,发出;give in让步,投降。 6. D 他们通过电子邮件和电话来表达爱情。 7. C 根据下文的意义可知,女孩被汽车撞到了。 8. A 她不想成为他的负担。 9. B 由下一句“with the letter”可知,她给他写信说自己再也不想等了。 10. D 女孩决定搬走,希望最后她可以忘掉过去的一切。 11. A 因不能讲话了,她学会了手势语。 12. B 由上文意义可知:她每天告诫自己要忘掉那个男孩而不是记住、想念、离开他。 13. C 有一天她朋友告诉她,他(留学)回来了。 14. D 因她要求朋友不要告诉男孩自己所发生的一切,打那以后,再也没有他的消息。 15. A 又过了一年,她的朋友给她捎来一封信,里面是男孩的结婚请柬。 16. B 女孩很震惊,看到的竟然是自己的名字。 17. D 此处是个固定句式:be about to do sth. when …,意为:刚要做……突然……。 18. B 从上文可知,他花了一年时间学习手语。 19. A 我(男孩)没有忘记自己的诺言。 20. D 由上文的退还戒子及下文的her finger可知,他为她戴上了戒子。 C: 1.B had been to, 表示经历,本句意思是“刚刚去那村买东西,已去了,现在回家了。” 2.C “need sth. for”中for表示“为了”。大意是“他买的是第二天要用的东西。” 3.C 从下文“It seemed a long time…after supper, when he…..” 可推出答案 4.B 从前一句 he had an extra reason to hurry home 可知这餐 meat 是unusual (不平常的),不是经常可以吃的。ordinary平凡的,normal正常的, common 普通的,共同的。 5.D it 在这是代词,指代前句的meat, “something cost somebody (money)”为句型。 6. B “leave something doing …”,意思是“让某物 …”;cook意思是“烹调”,第二段最后一句也有提示,而boil指用水煮。 7.B 此题的关键词是“but”,表转折关系, 因此可知他一点都不担心,尽管门没上锁。 8.A 同上。 9.C 固定短语。find one's way找到路; go one's ways.出发; lose one's way迷路. 10.B 这是一个宾语从句,从句的连接词that不作成分,只起连接作用。 11.C 此题考查动词词组的意义区别。throw off表示“匆忙穿、脱、戴(衣物)”,get off表示“下车,出发”,turn off意思是“关掉 …”。 12. D 从第二段“he decided to bring out his gold immediately, while the meat was still cooking.”可知肉还在烧。w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m 13.A 此题考查词组意义的区别。“as soon as”表示“一 …,就 …”,表现出他很心急;as well as意思是“以及 …”;no sooner表示“刚刚 …,就 …”;as long as意思是“只要 …就 …”。 14.C 表示因果关系:因为他等不及,所以要早点把金子拿出来看。 15. D 词组“take up the floorboards”意思是“拿起地板”。 16. B 本句意思是:他看到的是一个空空的洞。 17.B 表示此刻的心理反应:他马上不知所措。 18.C (令他吃惊的是)洞里什么都没了! 19.A 考查单词、词组意义的区别:search for表示动作“寻找(东西)”,found表示“找到”。句子意思是:在房子的每个角落里搜索寻找。 20.D 此处强调金子是被盗了,不是不见了。 八 A One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods door to door found that he only had one dime left. He was hungry so he decided to __1__ a meal at the next house. However, he lost his __2__ when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water.

I may be __6__, but I am precious for I serve the needs of human life. When I fill the sky __7__, my beauty is so striking that no one gives another __8__ to any of you." Red could stand it __9__ and he shouted out, "I am the ruler of all of you. I am the color of danger and of bravery. I am willing to __10__ truth. I am also the color of passion and of love." Then came Purple and Indigo (深蓝). … The colors www.ks5u.comwent on boasting, each convinced of his or her own __11__. Their quarreling became louder and louder.

My mother was a domestic.Through her work, she observed that __3__ people spent a lot more time reading than they __4__ watching television.

With everything __12__, you can have all the Italian knit shirts you want.” I was very __13__ with that arrangement but once I got through allocating money, there was __14__ left. I realized my mother was a financial genius to be able to __15__ our heads and any kind of food on the table, __16__ buy clothes. I also realized that immediate satisfaction wasn't going to get me anywhere. Success required intellectual preparation.

Every day they are very busy trying to __1__ in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me. They don’t act in the __2__ ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too __3__ for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of __4__. One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I sat down beside her. “Mom, I have a question to ask you. Is there __5__ between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice. She didn’t answer immediately. She __6__ her head and continued to sew the quilt. w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m I was very worried because I thought I had _7_ her. I was _8__ and I didn’t know what I should do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words: “Susan,” she said thoughtfully, “Look at this thread.Sometimes it __9_, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt __10__. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread.It can hardly be seen __11_, but it’s really there. Love is __12__.” I listened carefully but I __13__ her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly __14_ seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both looked __15 _. It seemed both of them had had a serious illness.

What does a policeman actually do? It is not 3 job to describe.After all, a policeman has a number of jobs in 4 .A policeman often has to control traffic, either 5 foot in the center of a town, or in a police car on the roads.Indeed, in Britain, he might be in the Traffic Police and spend all, or a lot of, his time 6 up and down main roads and motorways.A traffic policeman has to help keep the traffic moving, stop 7 motorists and help when there is an accident. A policeman has to help keep the 8 , too.If there is a fight or some other disturbance, we 9 the police to come and restore order.And they often have to 10 situation at great risk to their own 11 . We expect the police to solve crimes, of course, so an ordinary policeman, 12 he is not a detective (侦探), will often have to help 13 and arrest criminals. And 14 do we call when there is an emergency – an air crash, a 15 , a road accident, or a robbery? We call the police. 16 a policeman has to be 17 to face any unpleasant emergency that may happen in the 18 world. The police do an absolutely necessary job, they do it 19 well and I support them, but I do not envy policemen, I do not think that I could 20 do the job of a policeman. 1.A.dislike B.join C.appreciate D.admire 2.A.should B.would C.could D.must 3.A.a funny B.a pleasant C.an interesting D.an easy 4.A.it B.one C.his D.them 5.A.on B.by C.under D.with 6.A.walking B.driving C.wandering D.searching 7.A.resting B.tired C。speeding D.drunken 8.A.peace B.silence C.situation D.condition 9.A.wait for B.call C.think of D.expect 10.A.turn to B.avoid C.deal with D.treat 11.A.safety B.families C.future D.friends 12.A.although B.as if C.however D.even if 13.A.get rid of B.question C.look for D.sentence 14.A.how B.where C.what D.who 15.A.power failure B.fire C.thunder storm D.thief 16.A.Yet B.Then C.As D.So 17.A.provided B.promised C.prepared D.presented 18.A.future B.modern C.real D.whole 19.A.extremely B.specially C.surprisingly D.particularly 20.A.hardly B.forever C.ever D.never 答案与解析 A 爱就是鲜花、礼物和甜蜜的亲吻吗?作者通过亲身经历,终于明白,爱不是表面上的浪漫的亲吻,而是内在的情感。虽不能随时随地看到它,但是它却实实在在地存在着,使生活变得坚固而温暖。 1.C 由in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me可知是为了挣钱。 2.B 他们从未像我在书中读到,或在电视中看到的那样浪漫。 3.D 从上下得知,说出“我爱你”是太难了,而不是太简单、容易、轻松。 4.A out of the question是个固定短语,意为“亳无可能”;out of question“有可能”;out of reach (伸手)够不着;out of control 失控。 5.B 根据上下文,此处指“你和爸爸之间有没有爱情啊”。 6.D 因在缝被子,母亲低下头。 7.A 我担心伤害了她。伤害感情用“hurt”。 8.B 我非常尴尬。 9.C 由下文的“disappear”得知此处是“appear”。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。” 10.D 这些线使被子坚固耐用。 11.B 你不可能随时随地看到它,但是它却实实在在地存在着。 12.A 由上句推出:爱是内在的。 13.B 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。 14.A 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。 15.B 此处指“脸色,气色”。句意为:当他们从医院回来的时候,都显得非常苍白。 16.D (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。 17.C 从上文Dad, how are you feeling now可知,此处有“担心”之意。 18.A 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。 19.C 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。 20.A 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。 B 这是一篇夹叙夹议的记叙文。通过与父亲一起钓鱼的一次亲身经历,小男孩受到了深刻的道德教育,从而影响了他的一生。道德是简单的对和错的问题,但要付诸行动却很难。尤其是在无人知晓的情况下,我们是否会自觉以道德的标准来衡量我们的言行呢?人应当以“诚实为本,道德至上”。 1.B 由下文可知是鲈鱼季节开放的前。 2.B 他是去钓鱼而非其它。 3.A 当鱼杆向下弯的时候,他知道线的另一端一定钓到了一条大鱼。 4.A 在线的另一端。on the one hand, on the other hand 意为“一方面……;另一方面……” at the either side “在任何一方”。 5.C 小男孩钓鱼技巧纯熟,父亲看了眼神充满赞赏。 6.D 被钓着的鱼当然是筋疲力尽。 7.B 但他钓着的是一条鲈鱼。此处用but 表示转折,因为鲈鱼是禁止垂钓。 8.C “你得把它放回去,孩子,”他说道。此处指放回去。A、B、D项均不相符。 9.A even though 表示让步“即使”;其句意为:即使没有人看到他们,更无从得知他们何时钓到了鱼。 10.A tell“分辨;辨别”常与can, could, be able to 连用。 11.C 从父亲不可动摇的语气中,他知道这个决定没有商量余地。即“固定了的”。 12.C the black water 意为“漆黑的水中”。其句意为“他慢慢地将鱼钩从大鲈鱼的唇上取下,然后蹲下将鱼放回水中”。他在湖上钓鱼,不可能把鱼放回到河流或海里,更不是放入容器里。w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m 13.B 鱼儿摆动着它强健的身躯,消失在水中。fled 逃跑;floated漂浮;swim游。 14.B 他猜得没错。此处肯定上文所说的事“他可能再也看不到这么大的鱼了” 15.A land 意为“将鱼钓上岸”。saw指表示看见;cast洒网;threw投,掷。 16.D the same fish指被他自己钓着的那条鱼。但每次他面临道德难题而举棋不定的时候,他的眼前总是浮现出那条鱼。 17.C 此处是强调句型。意为:要付诸行动却很难。 18.B do right 做得对、得当。do wrong做得不对;do good做好事;do harm危害。此句意为“在没人瞧见的时候,我们是否仍始终如一,一丝不苟” 19.A 由下文“For we would have learned the truth.”可知此处是“被教给”。意为:在我们还小的时候,如果有人要我们把鱼放回去,我们会这样做 20.B 此处是形容词作状语,表示状态。不能用副词。意为:正确的决定在我们的记忆里变得清新。 C 1.C 根据下文作者的观点可以排除A、B项,作者非常“欣赏”警察的工作,而不是“羡慕”。 2.A should此处的意思是“应该”,此句的意思是“有一些人认为警察不应该有他们所拥有的权力”。 3.D 根据下文的描述,警察的工作种类很多,又充满危险,所以选an easy。 4.B 根据下文的叙述,警察要做的工作有很多,所以“ a number of jobs in one”。 这里的jobs的意思是“pieces of work, tasks(多种工作,任务)”。 5.A 此处“on foot”为固定词组。 6.B 在motorway上不能步行,只能开车,所以要用driving。 7.C 此处“speeding motorists”指的是超速行驶的机动车辆。选项“drunken”的意思是“喝醉酒的”,警察不可能一下子就判断出来哪个司机是喝醉酒的。 8.A 下文“there is a fight”告诉我们,警察的任务是要维护和平。 9.D 此题考察动词及词组的意义。 wait for 意思是“等待某人”;call意思是“打电话”; expect somebody to do something表示“期待某人做某事”;think of意思是“想起,想到”。D项最符合文中的意思“一旦有打架或者骚乱,人们就期待警察出现并维护秩序。”w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m 10.C 面对的情况是需要处理的,所以选择词组deal with;动词treat的意思是“对待、治疗”。 11.A 警察在工作时会有危险,对他们的安全造成威胁。所以此处选safety。 12.D 这里的“although、 even if”都可以引导让步状语从句,但是even if是一种不是事实的假设,而although与主句的关系为转折,此处警察不是侦探,所以选even if。 13.C 此题考察词组的意义区别。look for表示“寻找”;get rid of表示“摆脱,除掉”;question意思是“质问”;sentence作为动词意思是“判处,宣判”。此处的意思是“警察寻找并追捕犯罪分子。 14.D 根据下文的“we call the police”,选择疑问词who,指人。 15.B 根据前文的emergency(紧急情况),可以看出只有选项a fire(火灾)属于“紧急情况”。 16.D 由前文可以知道,当我们面对紧急情况时总是会找警察,所以按照意思顺下来,就应该用so表示“因此,结果 …”。 17.C 根据上文,面对emergency,警察随时随地都要“prepared”。另外,要注意词组“be prepared do to something”。 18.B in the modern world:在现代社会里。 19.A “extremely”在此处意思是“非常,极端”,此处是赞扬警察的工作非常好。 20.C 本句的否定前移了。当主句主语为第一人称、动词为think等词时,常用此否定前移结构,翻译成汉语应该是“我认为我不 …”。A、D项都是否定词,与not构成双重否定,意思不对;forever不合此语境。 十 A Computer hackers(黑客)have now got their hands on mobile phones. A phone virus(病毒)can 1 your phone do things you have no control over, computer security experts 2 . It might 3 the White House or the police, or forward your personal address book to a marketing company. Or it could simply eat into the phone’s operating software, turning it 4 and erasing your personal information. Similar viruses have already made mobile phone owners 5 in Japan and Europe. Ari Hypponen, chief technical officer of a computer security in Finland, said a virus “can get your 6 and send them elsewhere. And it can record your 7 .

But all too often as parents and teachers we disallow this 2 right to our children. When I see a child 3 to this kind of pressure, I think of Donnie. Donnie was my youngest third grader. His 4 of failure kept him from classroom games that other children enjoyed. He 5 answered questions — he might be wrong. I tried my best to build his 6. But nothing changed until midterm, when Mary Anne, a student teacher, was assigned (安排)to our classroom. She was young and pretty, and she loved children. My pupils, Donnie included, 7 her. One morning, we were working math problems at the chalkboard. Donnie had 8 the problems with painstaking neatness. Pleased with his progress, I 9 the children with Mary Anne and went for art materials. When I returned, Donnie was in 10 . He’d missed the third problem. My student teacher looked at me in despair. Suddenly her face 46. From the desk we shared, she got a container filled with pencils. "Look, Donnie," she said, kneeling beside him and gently 12 the tearstained face from his arms. "I’ve got something to13 you." She removed the pencils, one at a time, and placed them on his desk. "See these 14 , Donnie," she continued. "They belong to Mrs. Lindstrom and me. See how the erasers are 15 ? That’s because we make mistakes too.But we erase the mistakes and try again. That’s what you 16 learn to do, too." She kissed him and stood up. "Here," she said, "I’ll leave one of these pencils on 17 desk so you’ll remember that everybody makes mistakes, 18 teachers." Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and a smile. The pencil became Donnie’s 19 possession. That, together with Mary Anne’s frequent encouragement, gradually 20 him that it’s all right to make mistakes — as long as you erase them and try again. 1.

C 犯错误应该是人们学习过程中"必要的"部分。 2. B 大人有犯错误的权利,孩子也应该拥有"同样的"权利。 3. D (be) subject to为习惯表达,意为"容易受……的影响、容易遭受"。 4. A 由后文得出,Donnie"害怕"犯错误。 5. D 由上下文的逻辑关系得出,因为Donnie害怕犯错误,所以"很少"回答问题。never太绝对。 6. C 作为老师,"我"应该是尽力建立他的"自信"。 7. A .这位见习老师如此可爱,关爱学生,当然受到学生的"尊敬"。 8. B 从后面Donnie漏掉了第三题以及他数学不好判断,此处选"抄"下了数学题符合逻辑。 9. A 我"对Donnie的进步感到满意,因此把学生交给见习老师Mary Anne。Leave sb. with 为固定结构,意为"把……托付给……"。 10. D 后面有Donnie泪流满面的提示。 46. B Mary Anne脸部一"亮",说明她有了一个好主意。 12. A Mary Anne为了鼓励和安慰Donnie,轻轻地"托起"了他的头。 13. B 从后面Mary Anne所做的动作判断,她想通过形象的方式向Donnie"展示"犯错误是很自然的事情。 14. A Mary Anne以"铅笔"和橡皮为例说明犯错误的普遍性。 15. C 在具体的语境中考查形容词的运用。橡皮经常用来"擦"写错的东西,因此是" 磨损"了。be worn 当"破损"讲。 16. B must说明人的观点和建议,符合题意。 17. D 从后面看Mary Anne把一支铅笔放在了Donnie的桌子上,给他以鼓励和启示。 18. C even表示程度更进一步,符合逻辑。"甚至"老师也经常犯错误。 19. A B、C意义和possession重复,expected文章中没有信息依据。因此此处是Mary Anne把铅笔作为"奖赏"给了Donnie。 20. C Mary Anne通过形象、浅显的方式最终"说服"了Donnie,使他摆脱了害怕犯错误的心理阴影。 C 1. A。既然是老朋友当然是"值得信任的"。 2. B。因为下文说"吃饭的时候,我注视着它,听它报时",由此可知这部大钟对儿时的"我"具有很强的吸引力。 3. C。从上句我们知道,年复一年,这个老朋友已经成为我们生活的一部分,因此它对我来说是"熟悉的"。 4. A。爷爷对这部钟感情深厚,每天都很虔诚地、很"仔细地"给它上发条;也正因为如此,这部钟才会一直服务他们。 5. D。kept强调这部钟一直处于运转状态。 6. A。本题告诉我们两个信息。其一这部钟是由非常坚固的木材做成的;其二,爷爷每天给这部钟上发条的仪式是"固定的"。solid正好表达了这两层意思。 7. B。从上文"never let the clock wind down"处可知,后面应为"停止"。 8. C。爷爷让我们"轮流"使用那把钥匙。 9. A。葬礼过了好几天我"才"记起那部老钟。 10. D。 11. B, 12. C。因为爷爷的离去,那部一刻都不曾停摆过的大钟可怜地、静静地立在那儿,我禁不住地流下泪水,当然也会"不忍心"去看它了。 1. C。文章第一段可知。 2. A。没有了嘀嗒声、没有了欢声笑语,一切都"寂静"了;still在这儿强调餐厅里的气氛。 3. B。其他三个选项都表示钟被"保持"、"固定"、"阻止"在那一时刻;而B描述钟的现状:"凝固"在那一刻。 4. A。文章中作者的动作顺序应是"用颤抖的手拿着钥匙,打开门,然后慢慢地插进钥匙,上发条"。 5. D。因为钟从新开始运转,所以"刹那间",我又回到了童年。 6. A。作者想象爷爷站在他的面前,朝他眨眼睛。 7. B。我站在那儿,"陶醉"其间。 8. A。作者此时的心情应该是"虔诚地",slowly正好表达此意;同时slowly也和上文描写爷爷的那个词carefully 照应。 查看更多
