Ⅲ.阅读理解
Finally, for the first time in my life, I was going to move into a brandnew house and it was an absolute beauty.
I spent hours upon hours walking up and down the hallway just looking at that sunken living room. I had never actually seen one of those before and always thought they were only for rich people. It sure made me proud to now have one for my very own. I smiled real big and then put a foot down onto the first step, which led down onto the beautifully carpeted living room. Then I carefully looked to make sure I did not get any dirt on the golden colored carpet. Then I removed my shoes and walked all around the living room, feeling the soft, new, thick carpet beneath my feet.
I met the real estate agent (房地产中介)for the last time, signed the final papers and he handed me the keys. I jumped into my car and rushed as fast as I could to my rented mobile home to get the family and start the movingin process.
That was a very good day in my life, because no one in my family would ever have to live on the streets like I did as a young boy when running away from that abusive Florida orphanage. This house would be kept in brandnew condition, and would last forever and ever—so that all my children, grandchildren and great grandchildren would always have a nice, new looking place to live, no matter what.
That held true year after year and about five years later, we sold that immaculate house for top dollar. There was not a spot or smear (污渍)or hole anywhere in that beautiful house. Not even on the walls could you find a small nail hole that would have held a picture.
I was supposed to meet with the real estate agent who was selling our house later that evening and when I arrived, I was surprised to find the new owners of the house standing in the driveway. I parked my car, walked up and began talking with the older couple.
“This house is in perfect condition,” said the old man. “Perfect in every way. Not even a nail hole in any of the walls,” I told him proudly.
“It's really too bad that nobody lived here,” said the old woman. “I lived here for five whole years,” I said with a great big smile on my face. “No. You didn't live here for five years. You just stayed here for five years,” said the old lady.
All the way home I thought about what she said. What did she mean? How could they not be happy about buying a house in perfect condition and without any holes in the walls? I was very puzzled. Then it hit me like a ton of bricks. I quickly pulled over to the side of the road and just sat there thinking. The old lady was absolutely right.
Just because you stay in a house, it doesn't mean you really lived in it. Not unless you put your heart into it, enjoy it and do the things that make you happy while you are there—like walking into the living room and seeing pictures of the kids and the smiling faces of the grandchildren or watching them yelling their little lungs out under the sprinkler in your front yard, and yes, maybe even a picture of the old dog who decided to go to the bathroom on that beautiful carpet.
I sat there alone biting my bottom lip and feeling very much ashamed of what I had done by having lost five years of my life, not to mention what I had taken from my family without even realizing it. Living really is much more than just remembering yesterday with only your mind. It is walking into your home and living for today with your heart and your eyes. Those holes in the wall, when all the furniture is gone and the house is completely bare, are memory holes and without any memories, “You didn't really live there. You just stayed there.”
Today, our home in Brunswick, Georgia has so many darn pictures of kids, grandkids, friends and dogs on the walls that it might collapse one day. And if it does, that will be very sad for me.
36.The underlined word “immaculate”in the fifth paragraph probably means “________”.
A.peaceful
B.perfect
C.practical
D.permanent
37.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A.The writer was excited when he moved into a brandnew house.
B.The writer was satisfied with the sunken living room.
C.The writer was particular about the brandnew house.
D.The writer was first puzzled at what the old lady said.
38.At last, the writer realized ________.
A.staying at a house meant doing everything meaningful
B.living in a house didn't have the same meaning as staying in a house
C.staying at a house was equal to living in a house
D.looking at the smiling faces of the grandchildren was a happy thing
39.From the passage, we can infer that ________.
A.a brandnew house was more important than the life itself
B.enjoying life was far more important than keeping a house perfect
C.there was no point in remaining memories in a house
D.how to live a happy life remained to be discussed
40.In order to keep the house in good condition, the writer did the following EXCEPT ________.
A.walked on the carpet carefully
B.kept the walls clean
C.didn't put any dirt on the carpet
D.used the house as he liked
41.What can we conclude from the passage?
A.Actually the writer felt a bit regretful for not leaving some memories of the house.
B.The writer lived a happy childhood.
C.The old man and the old lady appreciated the doings of the writer.
D.The writer's attitude to the life was very stubborn.
答案
课时作业(四)
Ⅰ.1.B 句意为:海军中的一员在四天后被救了。这里只是对过去事实的描述,所以用一般过去时。
2.C 在交际用语中考查分隔式定语从句的引导词。代替指人的先行词All the storytellers,在从句中作主语,所以用who。
3.A the number of “……的数量”,修饰可数名词,谓语动词用单数;a number of “许多,很多”,后接可数名词复数形式,作主语时谓语动词用复数。
4.D 句意:我们不能在饭店吃午餐,因为没有一个人带钱。这里要用完全否定,故选D项。A、B项都是部分否定;C项形式不对。
5.B 考查交际用语。根据答语的后一句可知答话人认为对方虽然在考试中得了第一名,但是名不副实,此处come on意为“得了吧”,表示知道某人所说的话不正确,符合语境。
6.C 考查动词辨析。根据句意可知父母想庇护孩子们不受到任何伤害。shelter作动词可表示“保护;庇护”。spot “弄脏,认出,发现,定位”;dismiss “开除,使解散”;distinguish “区别”。
7.C 考查定语从句的用法。句意:毕业后我想找一份能把我在学校学的知识用上的工作。在这里a job是先行词,I can use what I have learnt at school是定语从句,在定语从句中缺少地点状语in the job。故选C项。
8.B 考查名词辨析。这几个词中只有event可以作“比赛项目”讲。句意为:校运动会下个月就要举行了,你打算报名参加哪些项目呢?
9.B 考查名词辨析。句意为:他的突然发怒,使会议不愉快地结束了。burst在这里强调的是感情的突然释放或突然迸发。干扰项express作名词时,意为“快车,快递”,没有“表情”之意。
10.B congratulate sb. on (doing)sth 表示“祝贺某人某事”,其中介词 on 不能换成介词for。
11.D 考查时态和语态。句意为:被困在河里五个小时,小偷看上去很苍白无望。be trapped in…“被困在……”。从主句的时态和整个语境看,此处应用过去完成时的被动语态。
12.D 考查副词辨析。high表示具体高度; highly则表示抽象意义,此处二者均为副词。句意为:尽管他在十岁时就残疾了,然而他目标很高,他的同学对此评价很高。
13.B 考查judge的用法。judging from…是固定用法,常用作插入语。句意为:根据他所说的话判断,他一定是一个诚实的人。
14. B 考查名词辨析和常用搭配。keep track of为固定短语,表示“跟踪,追踪,了解”。
15.D 考查交际用语。问句问的是对玛丽的新书的看法,故排除B、C;结合第二句答语可知,Very boring “非常乏味”适合作答语。
Ⅱ.汶川地震发生后,来自世界150多个国家的驻华使节和国际组织代表陆续抵达外交部,在吊唁簿上签名留言,向中国政府和人民表示深切同情和诚挚慰问,对地震中的罹难者表示沉痛哀悼,还表达了他们对中国政府、军队以及中国人民对抗震救灾的支持。我驻外使馆也开展了一系列悼念活动。除了慰问外,国际组织还进行了捐款。
16.A 由上文的“a book of condolences(吊唁簿)”和下文的“the national mourning(全国哀悼)”可以看出,这里要表达的意思是:各国外交使节到外交部对地震中的罹难者表示沉痛哀悼。victim意思是“牺牲者,罹难者”。the wounded(受伤者)有很大的干扰性,但不符合上下文语境。
17.D remain和形容词连用,意思是“保持某个状态”,强调继续停留于一处或保持原状态。而最大的干扰项是maintain “维持;保持;使继续”,但该词是及物动词,后面要加宾语。
18.C conclusion用作名词,意思是“结束”。外交部举行的此次悼念活动将持续三天,直到全国哀悼日结束为止。如果不注意一词多义现象,忽略了conclusion还可以指“结束”,就很容易误选其他选项。
19.C 句意为:来自150多个国家和国际组织的大使及外交官……from意思是“来自……”。
20.B 150多个国家和国际组织的驻华使节排队在留言簿上签名,表达他们的哀悼之情。所以只有line up “排成行,排成列”符合语境。sign up “签约”; make up “编造”; stand up “起立”。
21.A 这里要表达的意思是,这些外交官员,向我们的遇难同胞低头致哀。bow one's head意思是“向……低头”。
22.D support “支持,支援”。这些外交官还表达了他们对中国政府、军队以及中国人民处理灾难的支持。understanding(理解,了解)有很大的干扰性,但不符合他们积极捐款捐物支援我国灾区的事实,所以应该排除。
23.B deal with在这里表示“处理,应对”。
24.C the first to sign the book of condolences意思是“第一个在吊唁簿上签名留言,向中国政府和人民表示深切同情和诚挚慰问”的人。design “设计,策划”; resign “辞职”;sign “签名;在……签字”;respect “尊敬,尊重”。
25.A while “而,然而”,表示对比。
26.D staff “全体员工”。墨西哥大使率领所有的大使馆工作人员参加了悼念活动,以表尊重。crew “全体船员”,不符合语境。
27.B 代替表示人的先行词,在从句中作主语,引导一个非限制性定语从句,所以只能用关系代词who。
28.A 这里指的是该大使刚刚视察完灾区。所以要用visit。describe “描述”; rescue “营救,援救”; scan “浏览,细看”。
29.C 刚从灾区返回的印度大使也出席了悼念活动。因为前文介绍的都是出席悼念活动的大使们,结合空前的also,所以应选“present(出席的)”作表语。consistent “一致的,始终如一的”;absent “缺席的”;content “甘愿的,满意的”。
30.A receive在这里表示“接待或欢迎客人或来访者”。句意为:外交部长杨洁篪接待了来宾,并表达了对外宾们友谊和支持的感激之情。
31.D gratitude “感激之情”。对于来慰问我们遇难同胞的友人的友谊和支持,自然应该是心存感激。 attitude “态度”;latitude “纬度”;altitude “海拔”。
32.D mission “大使馆”。上文介绍的是外交部在国内举办的悼念活动,各国驻华大使前去签名悼念。这里介绍的是我驻外使馆开展的悼念活动。句意为:外交部驻外使馆也开展悼念活动,并降半旗致哀。
33.B 此处所填的词指代的是“the leaders…and heads…”,且限定中心词condolences,所以要用their。句意为:已有166个国家元首和30 多个国际组织的代表向中国表达了他们的哀悼。
34.C 这里要表达的意思是:除了派救济(relief)队到我们国家外,国际组织到2008年5月20日已经捐款246,000,000美元(支援中国灾区)。relief此处意为“救济”;chief “首领”;belief “信条,信念”;brief “简洁的”。
35.B donate意为“捐赠,捐献”,一般要接表示具体物体、金钱的名词。句意见上一题。
Ⅲ.本文描述作者一家搬进崭新的房子,5年后出售时竟然没有留下一点记忆的痕迹,作者后悔虚度了应该享受生活的时光。
36.B 词义猜测题。immaculate意为“完美的”。从文中的…we sold that immaculate house for top dollar及第七段This house is in perfect condition…可知。
37.C 细节理解题。从文中第一段的it was an absolute beauty.和第二段的I smiled real big and then put a foot down onto the first step…可知。
38.B 细节理解题。从文中倒数第三段Just because you stay in a house, it doesn't mean you really lived in it. Not unless you put your heart into it, enjoy it and do the things that make you happy while you are there…可知。
39.B 推理判断题。从文中最后一段可知,作者认识到享受生活,留下美好的记忆才是生活的真谛。
40.D 细节理解题。从文中第二段,四段和五段可知。
41.A 推理判断题。从文中倒数第二段I sat there alone biting my bottom lip and feeling very much ashamed of what I had done…可知。
