语篇解读 本文为一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述一天“我”为离开温暖的家而伤心难过时,祖父过来安慰“我”,并告诉“我”无论发生什么永远不要说再见。直到祖父去世时,“我”才真正明白祖父所说的“永远不要说再见”的真正含义——不要屈服于悲伤和难过。
1. A.felt B.fixed
C.watched D.heard
解析 根据语境可知,此处指“我”跑到后院,任泪水流淌。突然“我”感觉有只手放在“我”的肩膀上。feel感觉到,符合语境。
答案 A
2.A.watch B.interview
C.see D.discover
解析 此处指“我”抬起头结果看见是祖父。see强调看的结果;watch强调有意识地“观看”。
答案 C
3.A.difficult B.hard
C.easy
D.comfortable
解析 由上文可知,祖父看到“我”因不得不离开家而悲伤难过得哭了,所以他会说“不容易是吗”,故此处应为easy。
答案 C
4.A.making B.taking
C.leading D.carrying
解析 根据倒数第二段最后一句话“...I took his hand as________as he had once taken mine.”可知,此处应填taking,与下文相照应。
答案 B
5.A.where B.when
C.which D.while
解析 “________a huge red rosebush sat alone”为非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the front yard,先行词在从句中作地点状语,故填关系副词where。
答案 A
6.A.what
B.how
C.who D.whether
解析 此处指“我”看着花不知道该说什么。________to say为宾语从句,从句中缺少成分,故应用关系代词what引导,作动词say的宾语。
答案 A
7.A.red B.tasty
C.funny
D beautiful
解析 根据下文“It isn’t just the roses that are beautiful,Billy.”可知,此处应填beautiful,与下文相照应。
答案 D
8.A.close B.hard
C.far D.around
解析 根据语境可知,此处是指祖父把“我”拉近。close符合语境。
答案 A
9.A.bought
B.planted
C.treated D.discovered
解析 根据语境可知,此处是指当祖父的第一个儿子出生时,他种植了这些玫瑰。plant意为“种植”,符合语境。
答案 B
10.A.approach B.method
C.way D.solution
解析 method指相当精心安排的技术技巧所构成的方法,强调以效率与精确为其目标;way为普通用语,指一般的方法,a/the way of doing sth./to do sth.意为“做某事的方法”;A、D项之后都接介词to。
答案 C
11.A.preferred B.wanted
C.referred D.used
解析 由下文“a terrible war robbed him of his life”可知,此处为祖父过去常常看儿子摘玫瑰花给妻子,而现在无法看到了,因为战争夺去了他年轻的生命。used to do sth.意为“过去常常做某事”,符合语境。
答案 D
12.A.give up B.give off
C.give in D.give away
解析 give up放弃;give off发出(气味等);give in屈服,让步;give away赠送;泄露,出卖。根据文章最后一句话“...about refusing to give in to sadness.”可知,此处应填give in,与下文相照应。
答案 C
13.A.word B.happiness
C.sight
D.memory
解析 由并列连词and可知,空格处与前面joy相呼应。
答案 B
14.A.ill B.weak
C.old
D.serious
解析 由下一句“Then all members of the family were________back,and I returned to the old house.”可知,祖父这时病重。
答案 A
15.A.ordered
B.called
C.delivered D.sent
解析 由于祖父病重,所以把家里所有的成员都叫回来。call符合语境。
答案 B
16.A.pleasure
B.duty
C.turn D.wish
解析 此处指祖父临终前和家人作临终告白,当轮到“我”时……turn意为“轮流”,符合语境。
答案 C
17.A.happily
B.sadly
C.carefully
D.gently
解析 由第二段“Gently________my hand in his...”可知,当轮到“我”时,“我”像祖父曾经抓住“我”的手一样轻轻地抓住他的手。所以gently符合语境。
答案 D
18.A.laughed
B.shouted
C.added
D.whispered
解析 laugh笑;shout喊叫,大声说;add接着说,补充说;whisper小声说,耳语。此处指“我”小声地说:“你好,祖父”。A、B、C项皆不符合语境。
答案 D
19.A.sign B.sigh
C.smile D.wave
解析 此处应指祖父和“我”说完话之后是含笑而终。smile符合语境。
答案 C
20.A.thought B.meant
C.worried D.cared
解析 此处是指突然“我”真正明白了祖父曾经说的关于“永远不要说再见”的含义。
答案 BA、B、C和D中,选出最佳答案。
The purpose of a letter of application(求职信)is to help you to “sell” yourself. It should state 1
the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have . It should be simple, human, personal and brief without 3
any necessary fact.
In writing such a letter, keep in 4
what a possible employer is most 5
to want to know about, therefore, the opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part. 6
the first few sentences fail to 7
the reader’s attention, the rest of the letter may not be 8
at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs of the employer not 9
your own needs of desire. For example, instead of beginning with “I saw your 10
in today’s paper,” you might say “I have made a careful 11
of your advertising during the past six months.” 12
“I have made a survey(调查)to find out how many housewives use your product and why they like it.”
Be clear about the kind of job you are now .Try to avoid(避免)generalities. College looking for their first positions often ask, “What can I 15
against such a situation in a letter? Employer want experience—which, naturally, no 16
has.” The answer is that everything you have ever done is
17
.
It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter.
18
a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer something clear to do or expect. An excellent19
is to enclose(内附)a stamped, self-addressed envelop with your letter, which makes it for a possible employer to get in touch with you.

D. If
答案:D

答案:B
2016高考完形填空选练
完型填空。阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
If a teenager had some problems in her life years ago, she might go home and write them in her diary. Now, a teenager with the
21
problems might go onto the Internet and write about them in a blog. In many ways, a diary and a blog are very
22
. So, what makes blogging different from writing in a
23
diary?
The biggest difference is that blogging is much more
24
than a diary. Usually a teenager treats her diary like a book full of
25
that she doesn’t want to
26
.
It’s interesting that someone who writes in a blog
27
a diary will probably write nearly the same information. Both diaries and blogs tell details about what happened to the
28
that day.
I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her
29
. She writes about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not
30
enough for her chemistry test. When I was her
31
, I wrote about the same things, but
32
in my diary. Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was
33
that my sister might read it!
Because blogging is such a public way of writing, it has both good and bad points. The biggest
34
with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend during high school and wrote something
35
about her in my diary, she would
36
know.
37
, if my sister ever wrote something bad about a friend, that friend
38
read her blog and got angry.
Because we do not always
39
things carefully before we write about our days, it is 40 to accidentally write something that hurts someone’s feelings in a blog.
