25、友截然不同的情感表达方式,但不论怎样,作者都同样爱着他们。1.C advanced“先进的”;decorated“装饰的”;abandoned “抛弃的”;updated “最新的”。由空格后“old German truck”可知,这辆卡车是被抛弃的,故选 C项。2.B before“在之前”;while“当时候”;after“在之后”;until“直到”。根据空格后的过去进行时可知,应该是当他们正在飞越大西洋时,故选 B项。3.D loss“丢失”;death“死亡”;pressure“压力”;failure“失败”。由后文“Well have to jump out.”可知,应该是引擎出
26、故障了,故选 D项。4.B jump“跳”;swim“游泳”;die“死”;run“跑步”。根据前文,因为引擎出故障了,所以作者大喊应该跳出飞机,但作者的朋友却瞪着他,因为他不会“游泳”,故选 B项。5.D dust“灰尘”;river“河流”;truck“卡车”;shore“海岸”。由前文可知作者在安慰他的朋友不要害怕,等他跳下去的之后会把他拖到海岸边,故选 D项。6.B over“在的正上方”,且不接触;through“透过,穿过”,表示从一边贯穿到另外一边,或表示在立体空间中的“穿过”;across“横穿,横跨”;beyond“超越”。根据句意,我们在水中游泳的时候,应该是“穿越”了身旁
27、的尘土,故选 B项。7.C leave“离开”;fetch“取来,取得”;rescue“拯救,救援”;defeat“打败”。根据前文可知,因为作者的朋友是不会游泳的,所以当他们跳进水里的时候,作者应该是要“拯救”他,故选 C项。8.A role“角色”;manner“礼仪,举止”;image“形象”;form“形式”。根据后面一句“.Donald would do the same to me.”,可知,Donald 将会对作者做同样的事情,又根据前文是作者一直在拯救 Donald,所以这次应该是“角色”改变了,故选 A项。9.B something“某些事情,某物”;nothing“什么都没
28、有”;anything“任何事情”,或者用于否定句中,代替 something;everything“每件事情”。由句意可知,当作者全家要去美国的时候,他们什么都做不了,只能静静地哭,故选 B项。10.C break down“抛锚”;move in“移动,搬进,迁入”;pull away“(尤指车辆)开始移动,拉开”;blow up“爆炸”。根据句意,当列车开走的时候,他们只能静静地哭,故选 C项。11.A very 修饰形容词或者副词,表示“非常”,修饰名词,用于强调名词。根据句意,大西洋正是“我”和 Donald曾经在其上空“飞掠”过的海洋,用 very来修饰 Atlantic,表示对
29、Atlantic进行强调,故选 A项。12.B attack“攻击”;spot“发现”;annoy“惹怒”;kill“杀死”。由后文“In the end,the shark proved 15 ”可知,他们以为“发现了”鲨鱼,其实并没有,故选 B项。 13.D eagerly“渴望地,热切地”;casually“随意地”;hardly“几乎不”;crazily“疯狂地”。由前句可知,他们以为在水中发现了鲨鱼,所以他们开始“疯狂地”向岸边游,故选 D项。14.A panic“恐惧”;hesitation“犹豫”;doubt“怀疑”;silence“安静”。由句意可知,尽管“我”也很“恐惧”,但
30、“我”也会游回去保护“我”的朋友,故选 A项。15.C fierce“猛烈的”;friendly“友好的”;imaginary“想象出来的”;true“真实的”。由 shark被标上了引号可以推断,shark 并不是真实存在的,而是他们假想出来的,故选 C项。16.D cool“凉爽的,酷的”;shy“害羞的”;passive“消极被动的”;open“开放开朗的”,由前文总结可知,作者对待自己的女性朋友是情感真挚、透明且“开放”的,故选 D项。17.A express“表达”;hide“隐藏”;admit“承认”;control “控制”。由句意可知,作者对女性朋友的情感很透明开放,但是对男性
31、朋友,无论友谊有多深,似乎都不可能把真挚的情感“表达”出来,故选 A项。18.C embarrassment“尴尬”;disappointment“失望”;relief“减轻,缓和”;surprise“惊喜”。由后文“.researches show that men and women have very different 19 and rational processes.”可知,作者对待男性和女性朋友表达感情的方式不一样,这是正常的,所以这让作者松了一口气,故选 C项。 719.A emotional“情感的,感性的”;physical“身体上的”;mental“心理上的”;moral
32、“道德的”。由句意可知,男人和女人有着非常不同的感性和理性过程,与理性相对的是感性,故选 A项。20.D change“变化”;develop“发展”;matter“重要”;differ“不一样”。由上文可知,不论是男性朋友还是女性朋友,“我”都爱,只是表达情感的方式“不一样”,故选 D项。B【语篇导读】本文主要讲述了作者的妹妹 Helen在飞机上偶然结识了身患癌症的 Marcie及其丈夫 Daniel,妹妹 Helen主动给他们提供住宿的故事。Helen 帮助了别人,也快乐了自己,充分体现了人性的善良及信任。1.C 根据前面一句,尤其是句中的 short可知这里应该用 ample,意为“充足
33、的”。2.A 飞机才飞行几分钟,这时候,Marcie 就睡着了。故选 A项。3.C 根据常识,Daniel 和 Helen坐在一起,感觉尴尬,所以他们开始交谈起来。4.B 根据语境可以想象,当时 Daniel需要倾诉的对象,而这里的 unload正是“倾诉,吐露,发泄”之意。5.D 在几分钟之内丹尼尔开始讲起了他们夫妇的故事。relate 意为“叙述(事实经历等);讲(故事等)”。6.D 根据下文中的 alternative treatment可知,这里应该选 D项。alternative medicine“非西方传统医学/疗法”。7.A 根据句意表示原因。在凤凰城的医生诊断,Marcie 只
34、剩下了几个月的时间。8.C 传统疗法行不通,夫妇俩决定寻求其他疗法。所以选 C项。9.B 听着医生对他们所描述的,夫妇俩感觉很好,充满希望。同时根据下句中的 dismayed (沮丧的)可以看出,这里应选 B项。10.D 非传统疗法标有或携带着 34,000美元的标价签,所以选 D项。11.A 这笔非传统疗法的费用不在保险范围内。12.C 在 Marcie治疗期间,他们还得花钱找地方住,所以选 C项。13.B 上文中提到 Marcie因为生病,上飞机几分钟就睡着了,现在该下飞机了,Daniel 得叫醒她。14.A Helen 做出了一个决定,即让夫妇俩在 L.A.治疗期间待在自己家里。15.D
35、 talk sth.over “(在做出决定前与某人)商量,讨论”。16.C 他们愿意接受 Helen的慷慨帮助,所以选 C项。17.A 这样的安排持续了几个月。18.B 是什么力量,或什么打算使他们三个人聚在了一起?19.D “我”觉得可以毫不夸张地说,全家人对她的担心已变成了钦佩,“我”们全家都为她骄傲。此处选 concern,与文章第一句相呼应。20.C admiration 意为“钦佩;赞赏;羡慕;赞美”。最后一段大意为:我觉得可以毫不夸张地说,全家人对她的担心已变成了钦佩,我们全家都为她骄傲。C【语篇导读】本文是一篇关于学习新语言的议论文。首先要搞清楚学习的原因;然后谈到定期学习更容
36、易成功,贵在坚持,不要怕犯错误,多努力,一定会取得进步的。1.C 根据下文“such as your job or your studies”可知是实用的(practical)理由。technical“技术的”;political“政治的”;physical“身体的,物理的”。2.D 此句与前句同为第一句所提到的关于学习一种新语言的原因,两者之间为选择关系,故选or。3.A 四个选项中,与语言学习关系最密切,且能和 films和 music并列的,就是 A选项literature(文学)。transport“交通”;agriculture“农业”;medicine“医药”。4.B 你知道这对于
37、掌握一门语言有多大作用。have a good knowledge of something“精通,掌握,对很熟悉”。5.C 大部分人都会使用各种各样的方法学习。painting“绘画”;regulation“规则”;method“方法”;computer“电脑”。6.D 传统的课堂提供(provide)一个环境,在其中你可以在某个擅长于这种语言的人的指导(guidance)下练习。87.C under the guidance of sb.“在某人的指导下”;control “控制”;command “命令”;pressure“压力”。根据语境可知,选 C项。8.A 我们都过着忙碌的(bus
38、y)生活并且学习一门语言需要时间。根据语境可知,选 A项。9.B 学习一门语言当然需要花费时间(time)。其余三项和 take搭配分别意为:take courage“鼓起勇气”;take place“发生”。根据语境可知,选 B项。10.C 前面有“regularly(定期地)”,可知选 routine“常规,惯例”。如果你定期学习,你就会获得更多的成功,因此你最好形成惯例。根据语境可知,选 C项。11.B 根据前面的 take years(花很多年时间)和 but(转折关系),可知选 a lot less(花的时间少得多)。12.A 根据下文的“Yes,children do learn
39、languages more 13 than adults.”可知,有些人觉得自己太老(old)了。根据语境可知,选 A项。 13.B 一般来说,小孩学习语言的确比成年人要快(quickly)。根据语境可知,选 B项。14.A 前面说小孩学习语言的确比成年人要快,后面 but转折说研究表明你可以在任何年龄(age)学习语言。根据语境可知,选 A项。15.A 下句出现了“Well,relax and laugh”,可知人们担心(worry about)他们犯的错误。根据语境可知,选 A项。16.D 前面反复出现 learn,learning,可知此处选 D项。其余三个选项均不符合语境。17.B
40、句意:放松并自我解嘲一下自己的错误,这样你就不太可能再次犯这些错误。两句为顺承关系。本题考查固定句型:祈使句+ and.。18.D 根据下文“But with some work and devotion,youll make progress”可知,学习一门新的语言从来都不容易(easy)。其余三项均不符合题意。19.B 根据后面的“the positive reaction of some people when you say just a few words”可知,你只说几句话,人们就有积极的反应,因此会 amazed(惊奇的)。20.A 前面说“the positive reaction of some people”,可知是说一些他们(their)自己的语言的词汇。根据语境可知,选 A项。
