7、（共 15 分，每小题 1.5 分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从短文后各题所给的 A、 B、 C、 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 John and Mary had a nice home and two lovely children, a boy and a girl. Once John was asked to go on a business trip and Mary needed to go along too. They found a babysitter to care for the 11 and made the trip, returning home a l
8、ittle earlier than they had planned. As they drove into their home town, they 12 smoke, and they went to see what it was. They found a home on fire. Mary said, “Oh, well, it isnt our home. Lets go.” But John drove 13 and said, “The home belongs to Fred Jones who works at the factory. He wouldnt be o
9、ff work yet, maybe theres something we would do.” “It has something to do with us,” said Mary. But John drove up, stopped and found the whole house on fire. A woman in the street was crying, “The children! 14 the children!” John grabbed（抓） her by the shoulder saying, “Get a hold of yourself and tell
10、 us where the children are!” “In the 15 , ”cried the woman, “down the hall and to the left.” Although Mary didnt agree, John wet his clothes and 16 for the bathroom which was full of smoke and heat. He found the door and grabbed two children, holding one under each arm. As he left he could hear some
11、 other sound like crying. He sent the two badly 17 and nearly suffocated（窒息） children into waiting arms. Then he was told two more children were still in there. Mary grabbed his arm and shouted, “John! Dont go back! That house will fall down in any second!” But he shook her off and went back by 18 h
12、is way down the smoke-filled hallway and into the room. It seemed a century had passed 19 he found both children and started back. They were coughing and he lowered his body trying to get some 20 . As he walked up the endless steps, the thought went through his mind that there was something strangel
13、y familiar about the little bodies, and at last when they came out into the sunlight and fresh air, he found that he had just saved his own children. The babysitter had left them at this home while she did some shopping. 11. A. children B. pet C. garden D. business 解析：此处考查名词。由前面的 babysitter 可知此空应填 c
14、hildren。 答案： A 12. A. watched B. recognized C. noticed D. realized 解析：此处考查动词。空后面为 smoke，固应选择 noticed 注意到； watch 意为 “看 ”； recognize意为 “认出来，承认 ”； realize 意为 “认识到，实现 ”。 答案： C 13. A. farther B. off C. back D. closer 解析：此处考查副词。 but 表示转折，与 “Lets go”相反，并且下一段第一句为 “But John drove up”，所以，选择 closer。其他三个选项皆为相反的
15、意思。 答案： D 14. A. Find B. Get C. Move D. Hold 解析：此处考察动词辨析。当时 John 、 Mary 及老太太都在房子外，想要救出孩子，需先进入房子，找到孩子，才能带出，此路线有双向的含义。 A. Find“找到 ”，只是强调了进入的结果，并没有要 “带出 ”的含义，故不选。 B. Get 本身就有双向的含义，即 go and bring, 如Could you get me todays newspaper? 你能帮我拿今天的报纸吗？即 “过去拿到再带来 ”之意。C. Move“搬 ”，后面不与人搭配。 D. Hold “拿 ”，错因同 C。故选 B
16、。 答案： B 15. A. bathroom B. kitchen C. bedroom D. living room 解析：此处考查名词。此空为被困儿童的位置，由下文 36 空后面 bathroom 可知选择 A。 答案： A 16.

17、词。 frightened 害怕的，受惊的； surprised 惊奇的，惊讶的； sad 悲伤的； sick 生病的。根据文章情境，孩子应该是被惊吓到并且几乎窒息，所以选 A。 答案： A 18. A. following B. going C. pushing D. feeling 解析：此处考察动词辨析。需要联系上下文，盲做必死无疑。上文 “Mary grabbed his arm and shouted, “John! Dont go back! That house will fall down in any second!”交代背景，此时已经非常凶险， John 如果再进入，会有生
18、命危险。下文修饰 “way”的是 “down the smoke-filled hallway and into the room”，此处 smoke-filled 非常关键，意为 “浓烟密布的 ”，一个成人在浓烟中很难睁开眼睛，只能靠摸索前进。最常见的错误选 A， “follow ones way”表示 “沿着某人的路 ”，似乎有道理； B. go ones way表示直观的 “走出一条路 ” ，缺乏描述性； C. push ones way “闯出一条路 ”，常用于人多时的竞争场合，故不选； D. feel ones way“摸索一条路 ”，在眼睛看不见的状况下，用 “摸索 ”更加生动地体
19、现 John 的搜救过程。故 D 为最佳选项。 答 案： D 19. A. after B. before C. when D. until 解析： 此处考查介词辨析。原句为 “It seemed a century had passed 39 he found both children and started back.” 这个句子主句 “It seemed” 为一般过去时，从句 “a century had passed 39 he found both children and started back”为过去完成时，表示 “在他找到两个孩子 似乎过去了一个世纪 ”，这是对 John
20、救人的心理描写，是救人结束后的有感而发。 A. after “在 之后 ”，B. before “在 之前 ”， C. when “在 时 ”, D. until“直到 ” 。此处强调找孩子的过程非常艰难，故选择 B。 答案： B 20. A. water B. energy C. air D. light 解析：此处考查名词。放低身体试着获得一些空气。固选 air。 答案： C 六、阅读理解 （共 15 分，每小题 2 分） A Born in England, Elizabeth moved to the United States when she was 11 years old. S

37、shows that kids are able to do much more than whats expected.

45、 D. What Changes Can TEDx Youth Bring Us? 解析：此题属于主旨大意题。根据文章第一段和最后一段可以分析出，文章主要在介绍 TEDx Youth 是全世界的孩子们分享自我观点的平台，孩子们可以通过这个平台达到分享观点的目的。由此可知 C选项正确。容易造成迷惑的是 D 选项，文中最后一段的确提及 TEDx Youth可以改变观点、生活和世界，但是这并不是全文的主要内容，故排除。 答案： C D Kamal Meattle, in New Delhi, India, grows 400 plants in his office buildings greenh
