27、15】 D 【小题 16】 A 【小题 17】 C 【小题 18】 A 【小题 19】 B 【小题 20】 D 试题分析：一个假日的早上，作者偶然的早起，发现了对自己的人生有益的事 一个衣着朴素，骑着一辆不入时的自行车的老者，在自食其力，而且对自己的所做非常自豪。这一刻，作者感觉自己羞愧了，因为他自己还没有认识到过生活的真谛。 【小题 1】这里要注意 Mother这个身份，父母是允许自己的孩子不上学的假日里多睡觉的， sleep in睡个懒觉 . 【小题 2】前面是谈自己会好好利用一下母亲的许可：睡个懒觉，后面又是在谈自己想早起，中间是明显的转折。 【小题 3】此题可以从下午的提示 “seve
28、ral people go by, get into their car and drive off”可以得知：是停车的地方。 【小题 4】此题是主题设空，从后面的作者体会可以看出是对自己的生活有用的一些东西。区别比较各选择，本题难度不大。 【小题 5】前面的动词 “watched”是提示，这里表示注意到。 【小题 6】这里考察了一个自行车上的部分名称，从本句的后面 back-carriage可以看出前面是在谈车子的前面部分， handle 把手。 【小题 7】从后面的清洗车辆可以看出，是在一辆辆车之间移动。 【小题 8】此题要注意前后的提示： “already”和 “a dozen or m
29、ore cars”,所以这里表示老人工作时间早，已经清洗了很多车子了。 【小题 9】这里是一个固定的表示方式： cross ones mind (of thoughts, etc) come into ones mind （指想法等）出现 , 掠过 :， slip one mind:忘记，其他选项明显错误。 【小题 10】这里是考察对老人形象的判断，前面谈到 he wasnt well-dressed，从后面的自行车描述可以看出，老人是一个朴素之人。 【小题 11】从后面的 riding on 可以得知是骑自行的人。 【小题 12】 but是表示转折，前面提到他的穿着和所骑的车子都不时尚，后面
30、又提到和他自己时而不时的和路人闲聊可以看出他自己是对这一切都是满意的，老人的精神世界很丰富， be content with对 满意。 【小题 13】这里要注意连词 and所表示的平行关系，后面动词是停下来闲聊，那么前面的动词不能仅表示 look,因为他当时是在洗车，不可能洗车而视线在别的地方，这里应该是表示有时候他朝路人招手示意，还会有闲聊。 【小题 14】这里考察动词 chat与介词的搭配， chat with sb.与某人闲聊。 【小题 15】从后面的解释语句：洗完后总要站在一旁看看，可以看出老人对所做之事是自豪的，这样才会去欣赏自己的事。 【小题 16】后面的 scrubbing是一个
31、提示，这里和 52空的两个并列句都是句式结构相同，这样的考查也是完型填空的一个固定设题。 【小题 17】对应上一个分句中的 then,这里是表示重复一个相同动作。 【小题 18】这里是作者在发表感叹：这是要学习的一课。 【小题 19】 beg for a living乞讨为生，这里是指老人虽然清贫，但是自己能自食其力，身体健康而且乐于工作，所以没有必要去乞讨。 【小题 20】对比老人的勤劳，自己这时感到我跟老人相比觉得自己的生活不够积极，有点羞愧。 考点：日常生活类 夹斜夹议 点评：整个完形填空大题，设空科学合理，考生不难从中领会大意，从而下手会比较顺利，整篇难度与去年几乎持平，比较适中。从选

Now it seems that every time I check my e-mail, I have an endless series of advertisement and other cor
33、respondence that do not interest the at all. If we want e-mail to continue to be useful, we need special laws that make spamming(发送垃圾邮件 ) a crime. If lawmakers do not do something soon to prohibit spam, the problem will certainly get much worse. Computer programs allow spammers to spend hundreds of
34、millions of e-mails almost instantly. As more and more advertisers turn to spam to sell their products, individual e-mail boxes are often flooded with spam e-mails. Would people continue to use e-mail if they had to deal with an annoying amount of spam each time This problem is troubling for individ
