40.A本文是一篇記敘文。在貧困地區(qū)任教的格林老師在感恩節(jié)上課時(shí)，讓同學(xué)們畫(huà)出自己最感激的東西，使格林老師感到驚訝的是大衛(wèi)畫(huà)了一只手；那么他畫(huà)的是誰(shuí)的手呢？孩子們給出了不同的答案。大衛(wèi)說(shuō)：畫(huà)的是格林老師的手。此時(shí)老師記起經(jīng)常手牽手地呵護(hù)大衛(wèi)和孩子們。這對(duì)于大衛(wèi)來(lái)說(shuō)十分重要。由此老師感悟到：感恩并非只是回饋的實(shí)物，而是給予啟迪的感恩方式。21.考查形容詞詞義辨析。A.bettering更好的；B.developing發(fā)展中的；C.interesting有趣的；D.worsening逐漸變壞的。根據(jù)該句中的howlittlethesechildren…h(huán)adtobethankfulfor幾乎沒(méi)有可感激的可知，該地區(qū)是逐漸變壞的。故選D。22.考查形容詞詞義辨析。A.eager熱切的；B.thankful感激的；C.ready準(zhǔn)備好的；D.greedy貪婪的。根據(jù)第一句中的WhenMrs.Greentoldherpupilstodrawapictureofsomethingforwhichtheywerethankful提示可知，此處與thankful與之相互呼應(yīng)。故選B。23.考查名詞詞義辨析。A.class班級(jí)；B.school學(xué)校；C.group團(tuán)體；D.boys男孩。根據(jù)下文出現(xiàn)的class提示可知。這里指班級(jí)里大多數(shù)同學(xué)都畫(huà)的是火雞。故選A。24.考查形容詞詞義辨析。A.rare少有；B.delicious美味的；C.expensive貴的；D.fit合適的。根據(jù)孩子們的心理和上文的turkey可知，這里指關(guān)于感恩節(jié)餐桌上好吃的東西。故選B。25.考查動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)詞義辨析。A.convincedof信服；B.informedof告訴；C.warnedof警告；D.expectedof期盼。theybelieve在此處是插入語(yǔ)，可忽略不計(jì)。這里指他們堅(jiān)信那是老師對(duì)他們所期待的。故選D。26.考查形容詞詞義辨析。A.satisfied滿意的；B.touched感動(dòng)的；C.amazed驚訝的；D.encouraged鼓勵(lì)的。根據(jù)上下文可知，老師以為學(xué)生會(huì)畫(huà)火雞等美味，使她感到驚訝的是大衛(wèi)與眾不同畫(huà)了一只手。故選C。27.考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。A.found發(fā)現(xiàn)；B.shut關(guān)閉；C.hidden隱藏；D.stuck堅(jiān)持。根據(jù)上下文可知，下課后，人們發(fā)現(xiàn)大衛(wèi)處于自己的世界里（在他人看來(lái)大衛(wèi)由于失望而變得自閉）。故選A。28.考查副詞詞義辨析。A.only僅有；B.simply簡(jiǎn)單；C.clearly清晰地；D.exactly確切地；simply常用來(lái)引出解釋?zhuān)迷诖颂幏险Z(yǔ)境(大衛(wèi)畫(huà)的僅僅是這樣)。故選B。29.考查名詞詞義辨析。A.head頭；B.arm膀臂；C.hand手；D.foot腳。根據(jù)上文多次提到hand可以得出答案。它一定是上帝之手。故選C。30.考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。A.fetching去??；B.earning獲得；C.sending送；D.bringing帶來(lái)。

God是神靈不用“掙得、去取、送達(dá)”，而是順便“帶來(lái)bring”。故選D。31.考查名詞詞義辨析。A.worker工人；B.carpenter木匠；C.farmer農(nóng)場(chǎng)主；D.banker銀行家。農(nóng)場(chǎng)養(yǎng)火雞，因此應(yīng)該是農(nóng)場(chǎng)主farmer。故選C。32.考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。A.raise提高；B.milk給……喂牛奶；C.have有；D.grow生長(zhǎng)。Raise在這里指“飼養(yǎng)”之意。根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知這里指飼養(yǎng)火雞。故選A。33.

考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。A.bring帶來(lái)；B.protect保護(hù)；C.watch觀看；D.guard看守。警察的職責(zé)是保護(hù)(protect)民眾的，警衛(wèi)、看守、監(jiān)視(guard)用在此處不合適。故選B。34.考查副詞詞義辨析。A.seriously認(rèn)真的；B.rudely粗魯?shù)?；C.naughtily調(diào)皮的；D.noisily吵鬧的。根據(jù)itissupposedtobeallthehandsthathelpus,butDavidcouldonlydrawoneofthem.畫(huà)的應(yīng)該是所有給予我們幫助的手，但大衛(wèi)可能只畫(huà)了其中一只可知，Lucy做出了嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)?shù)拇鸢福虼耸褂肁項(xiàng)“嚴(yán)肅認(rèn)真地seriously”符合語(yǔ)境。故選A。35.考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。A.proved證明；B.known知道；C.said說(shuō)；D.supposed假設(shè)。此處是表達(dá)推斷的語(yǔ)境，D

項(xiàng)“is

supposed

to

be

應(yīng)該是”表達(dá)了說(shuō)話人推斷的意思。故選D。36.考查名詞詞義辨析。A.surprise驚訝；B.pride自豪；C.pleasure快樂(lè)；D.wonder驚奇。該句的意思是：老師沉浸于該話題引起孩子們共鳴的喜悅中而幾乎忘記了大衛(wèi)。pride不與at連用而與of連用。故選C。37.考查名詞詞義辨析。

A.picture圖畫(huà)；B.book書(shū)；C.schoolbag書(shū)包；D.desk課桌。這里指課堂上，老師俯身于書(shū)桌前詢問(wèn)大衛(wèi)，而不可能俯身于圖畫(huà)、書(shū)或者書(shū)包。故選D。38.考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。A.realized意識(shí)到；B.wished希望；C.remembered記得；D.believed相信。根據(jù)該空白后的時(shí)態(tài)和句意可知：聽(tīng)到大衛(wèi)的回答“我畫(huà)的是您的手”后，格林老師想起/記起……。其它三個(gè)選項(xiàng)“意識(shí)到、但愿、堅(jiān)信”不能表達(dá)“格林老師曾手牽手呵護(hù)學(xué)生”是事實(shí)。故選C。39.考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。A.sensed感覺(jué)；B.meant意義；C.accounted解釋?zhuān)籇.affected影響。格林老師對(duì)所有學(xué)生都手牽手呵護(hù)，但這對(duì)大衛(wèi)來(lái)說(shuō)意義重大(meanmuchtohim)，因?yàn)樗容^自閉、孤僻。故選B。40.考查名詞詞義辨析。A.ways方式；B.chances機(jī)會(huì)；C.abilities能力；D.hopes希望。最后格林老師感悟到：感恩時(shí)，重要的不是回饋的實(shí)物，而是給予啟迪的感恩方式(ways)。其它選項(xiàng)不符合此處語(yǔ)境。故選A?！久麕燑c(diǎn)睛】解答完形填空的技巧：1、找出詞語(yǔ)之間的習(xí)慣搭配，或固定搭配；如第12題考查動(dòng)詞raise的用法，為“飼養(yǎng)、撫養(yǎng)”之意。如

raise

cattle（飼養(yǎng)牲口）和raise

children（撫養(yǎng)孩子）。如果同學(xué)對(duì)此固定搭配不了解就很難選擇出正確的答案。2、結(jié)合生活，結(jié)合生活常識(shí)，善于觀察生活，積累生活常識(shí)，就能夠利用常識(shí)去做恰當(dāng)?shù)倪x擇。如第11題就是根據(jù)常識(shí)可知，火雞一般在農(nóng)場(chǎng)養(yǎng)，因此應(yīng)該是農(nóng)場(chǎng)主farmer。其它選擇項(xiàng)都與常識(shí)不相符合。3、上下文對(duì)照，解完形填空題時(shí)，單獨(dú)看一句話是找不到正確答案的，需要讀下句或者若干句才能明白。所謂上下對(duì)照，即在上文和下文中找到與正確答案相關(guān)的關(guān)鍵詞。因此，在做題時(shí)要邊讀邊大腦中儲(chǔ)存上下文信息的能力，捕捉關(guān)鍵詞。4、詞語(yǔ)或詞義復(fù)現(xiàn)。詞匯復(fù)現(xiàn)往往會(huì)使語(yǔ)篇中的句子相互銜接得更緊密，利用詞語(yǔ)的復(fù)現(xiàn)，對(duì)解題很有幫助。如第4小題，根據(jù)后文Theclasswasstronglyattractedbyhisimage.的詞義復(fù)現(xiàn)得出答案的。三、閱讀理解22.閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A,B,C和D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。AttractionsDoyou：◆LovetheNationalPark,valueitandhopetosafeguarditsfuture?◆WishtoseethebeautifullandscapeoftheParkprotected?◆Liketoenjoypeaceful,informalrecreationwithinthePark?AimsTheFriendsorganizationaimsaretohelpprotectandimprovethePembrokeshireCoastNationalParkforalltoenjoy.WeareavoluntaryorganizationandregisteredcharitywithoutfinanciallinkstotheNationalParkAuthority.ActivitiesWeencourageeveryonetoenjoytheNationalParkthroughregulartalksandvisitstointerestingplacesintheParkwithexpertguides.Wekeepaneyeonplanningapplications,ParkAuthoritypoliciesandthreatstotheNationalParksuchasmassiveleisurecomplexes.Weworkwithlike-mindedorganizationssuchastheCampaignforNationalParkstomakeourvoicemoreeffective.WehelpchildrentounderstandtheNationalParkbysponsoringpublicationssuchasanadventurebookletandprojectsinlocalschools.Benefits◆Guidedvisitstoplacesofinterestwhichmaynotalwaysbeavailabletothegeneralpublic.◆AllmembersreceiveourregularNewsandViews.◆Talksbyexpertsintheirfieldsoncurrentissues.◆AdiscountisavailableonFriendsitemsforsale.◆Satisfactionofparticipationinworkparties,forthosewillingandabletobeinvolved.Ifinterested,pleasecompletetheApplicationFormatwww..uk.1.WhichofthefollowingisdiscouragedbytheFriendsorganization?A.Tobuildmassivecomplexesforpublicamusement.B.TopreventpossibledamagestotheNationalPark.C.TohelpprotectandimprovetheParkforalltoenjoy.D.Tosponsorpublicationsandprojectsinlocalschools.2.OneofthebenefitsformembersofFriendsisto________.A.haveFriends'goodsfreeofchargeB.visitanyplacenotopentothepublicC.takepartinworkpartiesiftheywanttoD.givetalksintheirfieldsoncurrentissues3.Thepurposeofthisposteristoinvitemorepeopleto______.A.raisemoneyfortheFriendsorganizationB.jointheFriendsorganizationandbemembersofitC.workasmanagersforPembrokeshireNationalParkD.enjoythelandscapeofPembrokeshireNationalPark參考答案：ACB23.閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng),并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。Psychology(心理學(xué))hasanewapplicationinthefieldofmedicine.Manydoctors,togetherwiththeirpatients,arelookingforalternativemethodsoftreatmentofphysicalproblems.Inlargehospitals,moderntherapy（療法）seemstofocusonthephysicaldisease.Patientsmayfeeltheyaretreatedlikebrokenmachines.Somedoctorshaverecognizedthisasaproblem.Theyarenowusingpsychologicaltherapy,inwhichthepatientisworkingwiththedoctorsagainstthediseasewiththehelpofmedicine.Thepatientdoesnotwaitforthemedicineandtreatmenttocurehimorher,butinsteadthepatientjoinsinthefight.
