1．As we all know “ The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.” and “
26
every successful man there is a woman.” Both these
27
mean the same things. Men rule the
28__ , but their wives rule them.
Chinese people and other foreigners often say,
29_ of the American women like making their husbands and sons successful, but some of them want
30__ for themselves. They want good
31
. When they work they want to
32__ better paid. They want to be as
33__ as men.
In the 1960s, the American women’s liberation
34
was started by women who don’t want to
35
behind successful men. They want to stand beside them, with the same
36__ for success. They don’t want to be told that certain jobs or
37__ are closed to them. They refused to work side by side with men who do the
38
work for higher pay.
In America, a liberation woman must be
39
of being a woman and have confidence in herself. If somebody says to her, “ You have come a long
40
, baby”, she will
41
and answer, “Not nearly as
42
as I am going to go, baby.”
On the other hand , this movement is quite
43
and many American women do not agree.
44__
it has already made some important
45__ in women’s lives.

It was a warm March evening，and I’d just taken a seat on the bus that would take me home．It was nearly 6：00 PM，but the bus was not yet full and the driver gave no
26
that he intended to start the bus．
A middle-aged woman took a seat opposite me . She was crying．Not speaking to anyone in particular，she
27
told her story．
She had come to the city to visit her daughter．On the way to the terminal(终点站)，a thief had _28_ one of her bags．It had contained half of the money she’d brought with her．The other half was hidden under her blouse, so she _29_ still had some money left．The bus conductor，driver，and other passengers listened to her tale．
At this time, an old man _30_got on the bus．He sat in the seat directly in front of the woman．After a few minutes, all seats were __31__．The driver started the engine．The bus conductor collected tickets and began asking us where we were
_32__．When he came to the old man’s seat，he became __33__
and asked the old man whether he had any money．The old man _34__ that he did not．He explained that he _35_ all his money this morning when he’d accidentally got on the wrong bus and now he was trying to go home．
Upon hearing this，the bus conductor _36_ the old man to get off the bus．The old man was almost in tears as he begged the bus conductor to let him take that bus
_37_ he could get home before dark．The bus driver approached the old man，and repeated the conductor’s _38__ to get off the bus．
“Stop troubling him! Can’t you see he’s only trying to get home?”she interrupted．“He doesn’t have any money!”the driver shouted．“Well, that’s no
_39_ to throw him off the bus,”she insisted．Then she said,“How much is his fare?”The bus conductor mumbled the amount．“Fine.”said the woman．She _40_ inside her blouse, took out her __41__ money，and handed the fare to the bus conductor．“Here’s his fare and mine．Just stop giving him a hard time．”
All eyes turned _42__ the woman，who，just minutes before，had been crying over the money she’d lost．“It’s only money,” she shrugged．
By the time the bus pulled out of the terminal，she had given the old man some bread and a dollar．She rode the rest of the way home _43__ a Mona Lisa smile of peace and grace，and the money she’d lost _44_was forgotten．
On the road of life，the politeness and smiles of _45__ can lighten our loads and lift our spirits．How much sweeter the journey when we make it a little smoother and richer for others !

I believe in miracles because I’ve seen so many of them.One day,a patient was referred to me who was one hundred and two years old.“There’s a
36
in my upper jaw,”she said.“I told my own dentist it’s nothing,but he
37
I come to see you.”
Her eighty-year-old son accompanied her.He would
38
to add something,but she stopped him.She wanted to tell everything hereslf.I found a large cancer that spread over much of the
39 of her mouth.A careful examination later
40
that it was a particularly bad sort of cancer.
During her next appointment,I explained to her the
41
of the problem.She clasped my hand in hers and said,“I know you’re worried about me,but I’m just
42 .”
I thought otherwise.After considerable
43
on my part,and kindness on her part because she wanted to
44
me,she agreed to have me refer her to a cancer surgeon.She saw him,but as I expected,
45
treatment.
About six months later she retarned to my office,still energetic and
46 .
“How are you?”I asked.
“I’m just fine,honey,”she responded
47
high spirits.“When can I get started on fixing my dentures(假牙)?”
Surprised to see her at all,I answered
48
,“Let me take a look in your mouth and we’ll see about it.”
I couldn’t believe my eyes.The cancer that had
49
nearly the entire roof of her mouth was gone—only one small area of redness
50 .
I had read of such things happening,but had
51
seen them with my own eyes.That was my first miracle.Since then I’ve seen many others,because they keep getting
52
to see.In fact,miracles are daily events for me now.And people are a miracle, 53
through them we have a chance to know ourselves and to
54
the miracles of one another.
Since my first miracle,I’ve come to understand that the time and place for a miracle is
55 we choose to find it.

【解析】
24．A考查名词。下文告诉我们，老太太患的是癌症，而不是受了伤，由此可见，这位老太太是因为上颚痛才来看病的，所以选pain。
26．D 考查动词。陪同老太太来的是她80岁的儿子，他试图补充点什么，但被老太太给阻止了。这里attempt to do sth.相当于try to do sth.意思是“试图做某事(但没有成功)”。而manage to do sth.意思是“成功做成某事”； continue to do sth.意思是“继续做某事”，显然都不符合语境。
27．B 考查名词。上文提到，老太太感觉上颚(upper jaw)有点痛，所以应该选择roof,49空所在的句子也有暗示。roof在此处的意思是“牙床，上颚”。corner角落；区域；bottom底部；surface表面。
28．C考查动词。confirm确认。句意为：后来的检查确认这是一种严重的癌症。convince(使)信服，说服；consider考虑；conclude推断，得出结论。
30．D考查词。由语境可知，老太太一直以为自己身体很健康，所以要选fine，意思是“(身体)好的”。下文的“I’m just fine，honey，”也是暗示。
32．C考查动词。please意思是“使……高兴；取悦某人”。解析见上题。persuade说服；encourage鼓励；astonish(使)震惊。
33．C考查动词。因为老太太去看外科医生也是出于照顾“我”的面子，所以拒绝治疗也在“我”的预料之中。根据前面对老太太的描述(kindness)可知，“婉言拒绝”符合语境，因此选declined。provide提供；receive收到；require需要。
34．C 考查形容词。解答此题的关键是空前的still，前文告诉我们，老太太一直很乐观，认为自己的病没什么大碍，并拒绝了大夫的治疗，所以应该选optimistic，意思是“乐观的”。。
35．B 考查介词。in high spirits为固定用法，意思是“兴高采烈”。
36．C 考查副词。一个病入膏肓的病人在六个月后竟然精力充沛、神采依然，“我”很吃惊，也很困惑，所以选择confusedly，意思是“困惑地”。worriedly担心地；patiently有耐心地；confidently有信心地。
37．B考查动词。cover覆盖。句意为：几乎覆盖整个牙床的癌症已经消失了，只留下一小片红。
38．D考查动词。这里指的是癌症症状消失后留下的东西，所以选择remained，语意见上题。
39．C考查副词。由上文“Surprised to see her at all”，“I couldn’t believe my eyes.”以及“That was my first miracle.” 可以看出，这里的意思是：我读过类似的故事，但这之前从没有亲眼看到这样的事情发生。所以选never。
40．A考查形容词。从那以后我看到了很多其他类似的奇迹。这说明奇迹在变得越来越容易让人看到，由此可以看出，easier符合语境。rare稀少的；happy幸福的；close接近的。
41．A 考查连词辨析。第二个分句是前一个分句的原因。句意为：并且人们都是奇迹，因为通过他们我们有机会了解我们自己，看见一个又一个的奇迹。for用来引出原因。
42．C考查语境化选词。这一部分重点讲的是看见身边的奇迹，所以要选see。该段的前两句都有暗示。
43．B 考查语境化选词。对应前面的place，选择wherever，句意为：从第一次奇迹之后，我逐渐明白：奇迹发生的时间和地点就在我们选择发现它的地方。
