29、18】 A 【小题 19】 D 【小题 20】 B 试题分析：文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者参加了一次周日残疾体验活动，通过对自己几个小时使用轮椅的详细记叙，说明了残疾人生活的不易。文章的最后给我们这样的启示：残疾人必须要克服心理和身体上的挑战。 【小题 1】考查短语辨析。根据空白处后面的 the problems faced by disabled people可知，活动的目的是为了 “意识 ”到残疾人面临的问题。 curious about 好奇 ； aware of 意识到 ； interested in 对 感兴趣； careful with 注意 ；照顾 。 【小题 2】
30、考查动词。根据下文 some members choseothers wore 可知作者被要求 “挑选 ”一种残疾，而不是 “治愈、阻止或分析 ”。 【小题 3】考查副词。根据最后一段第一句中的 my wheelchair experiment 可知，作者选择使用轮椅。有些同学显然是 “像我 ”选择了轮椅。 【小题 4】考查动词。根据后句 I had never considered before how 和这段最后一句的感慨， 可知作者认为坐在轮椅上就是一次 “学习 ”的经历，而不是工作经历或令人满意、令人放松的经历。 【小题 5】考查形容词。根据第二段的全段描述，活动前作者从未意识到使用轮
31、椅有多么的 “笨拙 ”，而不是使用轮椅有多么方便、讨厌或兴奋。很多学生选择了 A，一是因为没读懂全文，二是不熟悉 awkward的意思。 【小题 6】考查名词。状语从句部分 as soon as I sat down提示，轮子动起来发生的时间是当作者一坐下去的时候，显然能让轮子动起来的不可能是作者的身高或技巧，而是作者的体重。 force 也有 “力 ”的意思，但表示可 以做功的各种力，范围太大，所以最佳答案：是 D，因为重量也是重力，使句子意思更清楚、更生动。 【小题 7】考查动词。后句 then 提示：本句是对上句轮子为什么会转动的解释，显然因为轮子未被锁住，而不是 “修理或抓住 ”，更不
32、是因为轮子没动力装置。 【小题 8】考查名词。根据下文 “费了好长时间我才让金属 footrest （脚蹬）归位可知，这时的作者不知道把自己的脚放在哪里，毕竟是健康人在模拟残疾人的生活。 【小题 9】考查名词。 put into place 有 “把 归位 ”的意思。作者是健康人，他 /她刚坐到轮椅上不会驾轻就 熟，所以即便将脚蹬归位这样简单的动作，竟然用了很长时间。 【小题 10】考查名词。作者参加的是使用轮椅几小时的体验活动，而轮椅是一种交通工具，故最佳答案：是 C。 means of transportation 交通工具。 【小题 11】考查名词。根据第一段可知，作者参加的是残疾体验活
33、动，使用轮椅只不过是个实验，但对残疾人而言，使用轮椅可不再是个实验，而是一辈子的生活，更不是临时的 “探索、教育或娱乐 ”。 【小题 12】考查形容词。根据 and后面的 thought it might be restful可知，作者努力要找 一个舒服的姿势，从而被人推着四处逛逛是件让人放松的事，所以要找的不是 “灵活的、安全的或开始的 ”的姿势。我努力找一个舒服的姿势，并想着这样被带着去四处逛一会也许会让人感到宁静，甚至有些美妙。 【小题 13】考查副词。相比空白处前面的 restful，空白处后面的 kind of nice显然递进了一步，所以最佳答案：是 even，意思是 “甚至 ”。
34、 yet 然而； just仅仅；still仍。这三个选项显然不合乎前后的逻辑关系。 【小题 14】考查动词。上文的 “adopting a wheelchair”提示，作者坐着轮椅， 自然希望被人推，而不是开车接送或引导，更不会是被人带领四处逛逛。本题学生易错选 A，是因为句中的 around给人的 show sb. around 是固定短语的错觉。 【小题 15】考查动词。根据文章可知通过四下张望， “我 ”自己得搞定这件事是作者意识到的，而不是 “建议、同意或承认 ”的。 【小题 16】考查动词。上句中提到作者意识到没人帮他推轮椅，只能自己搞定这件事。言外之意是，作者得让轮椅动起来。轮椅的
35、轮子自然得转动，而不是被拎起、摁压或抓住。作者的手在轮椅转动起来的同时，开始疼，因为用手拨动轮椅才能转啊。 【小题 17】考查名词。轮椅是一种交通工具，而交通工具最重要的是掌控方向，这是生活常识。所以，本题的正确答案：是 C。 【小题 18】考查形容词。上句提到，拨动沉重的轮子的时候，作者的手开始疼。既然轮子重，手又疼，可推断拨动轮椅不是件容易的工作。 【小题 19】考查动词。本题出现在最后一段的第一句话，这段正是文章的总阶性的段落，作者要感慨残疾人的不易，自然要到体验结束，而不是实验被遗忘、重复或很快实施的时候。 【小题 20】考查名词。 A：弱点； B：挑战； C：焦虑； D：疾病。 “我
