【語篇導讀】 本文是一篇記敘文,記述了我和我兄弟去Miami(邁阿密)旅游,當?shù)竭_目的地后,來到六個月前訂的賓館,卻意外被告知訂的房間是下個星期的,且該賓館房間已訂滿。正當不知如何辦時,經(jīng)理出來了,將他們安排在留出來的VIP房間,且不另外收他們的錢,真是喜出望外的事。
1.it [在said后的賓語從句中缺主語,應(yīng)填代詞;指代前句中的Miami這個地方,應(yīng)用it。]
2.earlier [在句中作狀語,依然用副詞;不變詞性,因為是較早的做的事,所以用比較級。]
3.were told [由句意可知,是“我們被告知”,由上下文的時態(tài)可知,用一般過去時的被動語態(tài)。]
4.but [根據(jù)上下句意,意為“不是為那個星期訂的,而是為后一個星期所訂的”,為not...but...結(jié)構(gòu)。]
5.why [意為“我不知道為什么會發(fā)生這樣的事”,故用why引導賓語從句。]
6.for [charge...for...是習慣搭配。]
7.surprisingly [因本句已有作表語的形容詞helpful,所以應(yīng)當用副詞來修飾形容詞helpful,指“令人驚訝地,意外地”,故填surprisingly。]
8.the [特指“在頂樓”。]
9.where [先行詞是地點the beach,且在定語從句中作狀語,故填where (=on which =and on the beach =and there)。]
10.sunburnt/sunburned [在表示“變化”的got后作表語,要用形容詞;sunburn是名詞,其形容詞形式是burnt或burned。]

語篇解讀 本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了一個80歲老人在生日來臨之際對自己唯一的親人的殷殷期盼,但她最終盼來的確是一種無言的傷痛和失望。
1.A.took away B.brought up
C.moved off D.set down
解析 根據(jù)語境可知,此句是說老人把信件從“the ground floor”拿到“the second floor”。bring up意為“拿上來”,符合語境;take away意為“拿走,帶走”,move off“意為“離開,出發(fā)”,set down意為“記下,放下”,均不符合語境。
答案 B
2.A.occasion B.opportunity
C.ceremony D.a(chǎn)nniversary
解析 根據(jù)語境可知,此處是指在特別的“場合”,與下文的other times作對比。occasion意為“場合”,符合語境;opportunity意為“機會”,ceremony意為“典禮,儀式”,anniversary意為“周年紀念日”,均不符合語境。
答案 A
3.A.mustn’t B.mightn’t
C.wouldn’t D.needn’t
解析 根據(jù)語境可知,此處是指老人堅信女兒一定不會忘記自己的生日。表示“一定不會”時,應(yīng)用wouldn’t。
答案 C
4.A.occasionally B.a(chǎn)lways
C.a(chǎn)lmost D.seldom
解析 根據(jù)下文可知,Myra由于工作繁忙,平常很少給媽媽寫信。seldom意為“很少,不常”,符合語境;occasionally意為“偶爾,間或”,always意為“總是,一直”,almost意為“差不多,幾乎”,均不符合語境。
答案 D
5.A.Unhappily B.Unfortunately
C.Unforgettably D.Unkindly
解析 根據(jù)常識可知,最愛的女兒Enid的離去自然是一件“不幸”的事情。unfortunately意為“不幸地”,符合語境;unhappily意為“不開心地”,unforgettably意為“令人難忘地”,unkindly意為“刻薄地,不客氣地”,均不符合語境。
答案 B
6.A.casual B.remote
C.special D.conventional
解析 根據(jù)常識可知,“人生70古來稀”,80歲生日自然尤為“特別”。special意為“特別的”,符合語境;casual意為“隨便的,臨時的”,remote意為“遙遠的,疏遠的”,conventional意為“傳統(tǒng)的,常見的”,均不符合語境。
答案 C
7.A.Even if B.So that
C.In case D.Now that
解析 句意為:即使Myra不來,她也會送一份禮物。由句意可知,前后分句之間為一種讓步關(guān)系,所以應(yīng)用表示讓步關(guān)系的連詞even if,意為“即使”。
答案 A
8.A.proud B.capable
C.sure D.a(chǎn)fraid
解析 根據(jù)下文的描述可知,老人堅信她的女兒即便不來也會送她禮物。be sure of為固定短語,意為“堅信,確信”,符合語境。
答案 C
9.A.sharpened B.weakened
C.widened D.brightened
解析 根據(jù)下文中的“She would enjoy her day!”可知,此處應(yīng)指老人紅光滿面,面露喜色。brighten意為“使閃亮,使快樂,使露喜色”,符合語境。
答案 D
10.A.excited B.a(chǎn)larmed
C.inspired D.satisfied
解析 根據(jù)語境可知,老人此時興奮得像個孩子。excited意為“興奮的,激動的”,符合語境。
答案 A
11.A.thinking B.imagining
C.welcoming D.watching
解析 根據(jù)上下文語境可知,此句是指老人久久地站在門口,期盼著禮物的到來。因此選watching最符合語境,意為“守望,眺望”。
答案 D
12.A.steadily B.wildly
C.nervously D.randomly
解析 根據(jù)語境可知,此處應(yīng)選wildly,該詞是一種夸張的表達,旨在體現(xiàn)老人無法掩飾的、因迫切而慌亂激動的心情。
答案 B
13.A.discontent B.loneliness
C.disappointment D.a(chǎn)nnoyance
解析 根據(jù)上下文語境可知,此句是指老人的心情由先前“狂亂的興奮”跌之“沉重的失望”,是一種修辭上的對比。disappointment意為“失望,沮喪”,符合語境。
答案 C
14.A.patient B.a(chǎn)nxious
C.urgent D.mild
解析 根據(jù)語境可知,此句是指老人自我解嘲、自我安慰的一種無奈的表達,同時也暗含著一絲苦澀的期盼,所以老人告誡自己還要“耐心一點兒”。patient意為“耐心的”,符合語境。
答案 A
15.A.immediately B.cheerfully
C.a(chǎn)ngrily D.unwillingly
解析 根據(jù)語境可知,此句是指老人對自己期盼的“禮物”非常失望,因此不愿意打開它。unwillingly意為“不情愿地,勉強地”,符合語境;immediately意為“立刻,馬上”,cheerfully意為“高高興興地”,angrily意為“憤怒地”,均不符合語境。
答案 D
16.A.Pinned B.Folded
C.Lined D.Roped
解析 根據(jù)下文的“a piece of paper”可知,此處應(yīng)選fold,意為“折疊,合攏”,表示“在卡片里折了一張紙”。
答案 B
17.A.card B.bonus
C.cheque D.cash
解析 根據(jù)下文中的“The cheque moved quickly”可知,此處應(yīng)選cheque,意為“支票”,符合語境。
答案 C
18.A.bent B.leaned
C.struggled D.stretched
解析 綜合考慮老人此時的心情和神態(tài)可知,她拾起支票的姿勢應(yīng)該是“彎腰”。bend意為“彎腰,彎曲”,符合語境。lean意為“傾斜,倚靠”;struggle意為“努力,掙扎”,是一個中性詞匯,不能體現(xiàn)身體的姿勢;stretch意為“伸展,延伸”,均不符合語境。
答案 A 19.A.painful B.sad
C.expensive D.lovely
解析 根據(jù)語境可知,此處應(yīng)選lovely,表現(xiàn)的是一種強烈的諷刺效果,增強了語言的表現(xiàn)力。而painful,sad兩詞會使語言的色調(diào)索然無味,暗淡無光。
答案 D 20.A.moving B.trembling
C.reacting D.freezing
解析 根據(jù)語境可知,當老人看到女兒給自己的禮物竟然是一張支票時,她感到既失望又痛心,所以應(yīng)選trembling,意為“顫抖的,戰(zhàn)栗的”,生動地表現(xiàn)了老人當時的心情和神態(tài);moving意為“動人的”,reacting意為“反應(yīng)的”,freezing意為“冰凍的,嚴寒的”,均不符合語境。
答案 B
三、閱讀理解
A段
Most people watching Jeremy Lin these past two months saw Jeremy Lin,New York Knicks star;but I,watching him,saw someone else.That was my elder brother,Bob,who is athletic and energetic.He could never sit still when he was in second grade;he had to get up every now and then and run around the room.And sure enough,he grew up to be a starting player for an NCAA championship lacrosse (長曲棍球) team.He
was
a Nike-endorsed marathoner,too,and reached the top of Mt.Everest,unguided,in his 50s.
And yet my family never watched his lacrosse games.We did watch some of his marathons,but that wasn’t until he was in his
20s.When
Bob
was
in
his
glory
days,our Shanghainese-born parents were bent on getting him into medical school.There was a loving aspect to it:I can remember my father working through math books with him,lesson by lesson,at the big blackboard in the attic.Bob never did become a doctor,though;and neither did I.It wasn’t until my younger sister came along that someone in the family finally wore a white coat.
Bob today could be the fittest 58-year-old on the planet.His doctor estimates his biological age at 35;he’s still big mountains in the Himalayas.And,like Jeremy Lin,he’s charming.No one sees Bob without leaving with a laugh.He sometimes jokes he could be mayor of his building,and it’s true.To know him is to cheer for him.
And yet my parents did not cheer for him.What if my mother had sat on the sidelines with her statistics,like Jeremy Lin’s mother?What if my father had played videos of athletes for my brother to watch and imitate?It’s hard not to wonder.
And how did Jeremy Lin’s parents manage to do these remarkable things?Amy Chua,the tiger mother,recalls her immigrant
father
beating
the
kids
whenever
they mispronounced a Chinese word.How is it that Jeremy Lin’s immigrant father in particular,Gie-Ming Lin,encouraged his son to follow such an untraditional path?
【語篇解讀】 林書豪的成功,使人們開始反思什么是最合適的教育方式。家長是應(yīng)該把自己的意愿強加給孩子還是發(fā)揮孩子的特長呢?
5. Bob’s glory days were those________.
A.when he was doing well in math
B.when he was in second grade
C.when he was made mayor of his building
D.when he showed his talents in sports
解析 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章一、二兩段內(nèi)容可知,鮑勃20多歲時在體育方面的表現(xiàn)很優(yōu)秀,由此可推知,鮑勃最輝煌的時期應(yīng)是他在體育運動中展現(xiàn)他的特長時。
答案 D
6.From the passage we can tell that Bob is________.
