　　答案　A　考查名词。appreciation感激，欣赏；inspiration激励；satisfaction满足，满意；ambition抱负，野心。句意为：因为没有更好的表达爱和感恩的方式，这就很容易明白为什么在母亲节大家都去花店。

　　3．Nobody suspected you________cheated in the exam.

　　A．to have

　　B．with having

　　C．of having

　　D．have

　　A．ignored B．refused

　　C．denied D．missed

　　5．Many people in Haiti died from the earthquake because they didn't have________to immediate rescue.

　　6．Walter offered us a lift when he was leaving the office，but________our work，we turned down the offer.

　　A．not finished

　　B．not having finished

　　C．finished

　　D．having finished

　　答案　B　[考查非谓语动词。动词finish的逻辑主语是we，它是动作的执行者，所以应用主动形式，排除选项A、C两项，再依据句中的turned down the offer可知，该处应指工作没有完成，所以答案为B项。分词短语在此作状语，相当于状语从句because we hadn't finished our work。]

　　7．We must urge that representatives________from the various fields in the city.

　　A．select B．be selected

　　C．are selected D．would select

　　答案　B　urge后接宾语从句时，从句谓语用虚拟语气，即“should＋动词原形”，should可省略。题意为：我们必须敦促，代表从本市各行业中选出。

　　8．________with her work，they made her the general manager.

　　A．Delight

　　B．Delighted

　　C．Delighting

　　D．To delight

　　答案　B　[句意：因为他们很欣赏她的工作，所以让她当了总经理。Delighted with her work，过去分词作原因状语，即相当于Because they were delighted with her work，选B。 ]

　　9．Of the two cameras，I would prefer________one，which is very easy for me to carry.

　　A．a smaller

　　B．the smallest

　　C．a small

　　D．the smaller

　　答案　D　[考查形容词比较级。两者之间进行比较表示“较(大、小、高、低……)的一个”，用定冠词“the”加形容词比较级，故选D。]

　　10．Before the students set off，they spent much time setting a limit_____the expenses of the trip.

　　A．for B．about

　　C．in D．to

　　答案　D　set a limit to...确定……的极限。题意为：学生们在出发之前花了很多时间来确定这次旅行最多花多少钱。

　　A．what；when

　　B．that；which

　　C．what；which

　　D．which；that

　　答案　A　[what 引导表语从句，作表语。when 表示当……时候，表示不再像20年前设备简陋的时候那样了。]

　　12．Parents are taught to understand________important education is to their children's future.

　　A．that

　　B．how

　　C．such

　　D．so

　　答案　B　[首先判断这是个宾语从句， C和 D不能引导，应当排除；that引导宾语从句没有任何意思，不作任何句子成分，而此处要修饰作表语的形容词 important，所以选 how。]

　　13．I think Father would like to know________I've been up to so far，so I decide to send him a quick note.

　　A．which

　　B．why

　　C．what

　　D．how

　　答案　C　[因为在动词

　　(know) 后作宾语的是宾语从句，又因为be up to＝be busy with(忙于……，干……)中to是介词，后面一定要接宾语，排除副词 B和D；which (哪一)意义不通，只有what(＝the thing or things that)正确。]

　　14．Jane's pale face suggested that she________ill，and her parents suggested that she________a medical examination.

　　A．be；should have

　　B．was；have

　　C．should be；have

　　D．was；has

　　答案　B　[前半句句意为：简苍白的脸色表明她病了。第一空前的suggested作“表明”讲，从句中的谓语动词时态须与主句保持一致。“她父母建议她进行医疗检查”，宾语从句中谓语动词应用“(should＋)动词原形”。]

　　15．—Sorry for having kept you waiting.But for the traffic jam，I________20 minutes earlier.

　　—Never mind.I haven't been waiting that long.

　　A．arrived

　　B．would arrive

　　C．would have arrived

　　D．had arrived

　　答案　C　[句意：——很抱歉让你久等了。若不是交通堵塞，我就提前20分钟到了。——没关系，我没等那么久。but for若不是因为，如果没有。此句是一个与过去事实相反的虚拟语气，所以主句用would have done，因此选C项。]

　　【语篇解读】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，作者在丈夫突然去世正悲伤的时候，收到朋友的信。朋友也有着丧夫的遭遇，当时得到了作者妈妈的安慰，现在朋友又把作者妈妈安慰自己的话传给了她。

　　16．A.received

　　B．wrote

　　C．sent

　　D．showed

　　答案　A　[根据下文的letters, cards, flowers, calls, and visits可知是作者的丈夫突然去世后，她收到了这些表示哀悼的东西。receive“收到”，符合文意。]

　　17．A.disappointment

　　B．relief

　　C．grief

　　D．regret

　　答案　C　[take a bad knock意为“受到经济或感情上的严重打击”。她丈夫去世，她应该是“悲痛”(grief)。]

　　18．A.ask

　　B．experience

　　C．explain

　　D．understand

　　答案　D　[从the whys and hows可知此处应该是understand，意思是作者想弄明白这些不幸的事情为什么，怎么会发生在自己家。]

　　19．A.answers

　　B．skills

　　C．explanation

　　答案　A　[结合上一句想弄明白“问题”，这里应该是问题的答案answers。作者得不到答案，只有悲伤。]

　　20．A.impressed

　　B．touched

　　C．appreciated

　　D．affected

　　答案　B　[由下文和deeply可知，是有一封短信打动了作者，所以用touch表示“打动”。impress“使……有印象，影响”，appreciate“欣赏，赞赏”，affect“影响”，这三项都不符合语境。]

　　21．A.grade

　　B．class

　　C．sense

　　D．week

　　答案　A　[从through high school可知是在上学时的朋友，用grade表示“年级”。这里指从六年级开始到高中一直是好朋友。]

　　D．settlement

　　答案　B　[句中谓语动词drifted表示“漂流，漂泊”，说明两人在“毕业”(graduation)以后分开了，去了不同的地方。]

　　23．A.Instead

　　B．Therefore

　　C．But

　　D．However

　　答案　C　[通过语境可以判断，该处缺少表转折关系的连词，A、B意思不符合语意，however常和逗号连用，故应选C项。]

　　24．A.kept

　　B．lost

　　C．got

　　D．engaged

　　答案　B　[由上文可知，这里应是“失去联系”，所以用lost和touch组成短语。]

　　25．A.moving

　　B．returning

　　C．staying

　　D．leaving

　　答案　D　[此处是动词的­ing形式作结果状语，leaving在此处意为“使处于某种状态”，符合上下文语境。]

　　C．services

　　D．chances

　　答案　B　[从下文的finding a job and raising three young children可以判断，这些都是她的责任，所以用responsibilities。]

　　27．A.including

　　B．as well as

　　C．like

　　D．except for

　　答案　C　[她和Pete的关系就像我和Bob的关系一样。like作介词用表示“像……一样”。including是“包括”的意思；as well as作介词时，含义是“还，也”；except for表示部分与整体的关系，表示“除了……之外”，用于非同类事物的排除。]

　　28．A.contacts

　　B．backgrounds

　　C．interests

　　D．relationships

　　答案　D　[这里表示的是夫妻之间挚爱至深，用relationships。contact“接触”，background“背景”，interest“兴趣”。]

　　29．A.shared

　　31．A.after

　　答案　B　[我的朋友将它珍藏了这么多年，此时又将它传递给我。pass sth on to sb“把某物传递给某人”，符合语境。]

　　35．A.Unnecessary

　　B．Perfect

　　C．Curious

　　D．Abstract

　　答案　B　[作者赞赏、感叹妈妈说给朋友，朋友又传给自己的这句话。“I love you”是多么完美的语言。unnecessary“不必要的”，curious“好奇的”，abstract“抽象的”，都不符合语境。]

　　Ⅲ.阅读理解

　　I recently ran into a friend I hadn’t seen for a long while.Our conversation was lively and full of news from both sides.Before we parted she said，“You’ll have to drop in sometime.” I immediately sensed that if I simply “dropped in” I would take my friend by surprise，and I would be discouraged by the image of her standing in her doorway，staring at me，and asking，“Oh，er...what brings you here？”

　　Whatever happened to the unannounced drop­in visit？When I was growing up in the 1960s，it seemed that people—mostly relatives，but also friends—were always popping_in.My parents would put coffee on，and my mom would find something in the kitchen to serve along with it.Then the conversation would begin...The neighbor lady，a worrier，was unloading her sadness while my mom quietly listened.The Irish man next door had such an accent that I remember asking what language he spoke.My Polish relatives arrived in packs...But I never heard my parents say anything like “We weren’t expecting you” or “This isn’t a good time.” Drop­in visitors had a certain right of way and became No.1.

　　What happened to such visits？Actually I know the answer.Times have changed.Everybody gets busy with work.There is no longer a stay­at­home mom keeping a pot of hot coffee or tea ready throughout the day for a surprise guest.Exploding malls and stores are now replacing homes as a central form of entertainment.

　　Just the other day a former student of mine showed up.“I’m sorry for the surprise visit，” my student began.“I just wanted to see if you still lived here.I’ll only stay a minute.”

　　My response was immediate.“No，you won’t，” I said.“Just come in，sit，have coffee，and we’ll talk.”

　　I had nothing in the kitchen but we ordered pizza.And we had a lovely time.I have tried to keep the drop­in tradition alive though it takes some effort.

　　【语篇解读】　本文为一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者通过一个朋友说的“有空来串门”这句话，表达了自己对“串门(顺便拜访)”这种传统的怀念。由于时代变迁，人们现在越来越忙碌，这种传统已经渐渐消失。

　　36．The author thought his friend’s invitation—“You’ll have to drop in sometime”—as________.

　　A．a nice way of refusal

　　B．an excuse of leaving

　　C．a kind of politeness

　　D．an expression of surprise

　　答案　C　[推理判断题。根据文章第一段内容可知，“我”偶遇了一位朋友，在谈话结束快分开之际，朋友说：“有时间你一定要来串门。”“我”立即意识到假如我真的顺便去拜访她的话，她一定会很吃惊，想象看到她站在门口问：“哦，嗯……你怎么来了”的情形。“我”自己肯定也会很泄气。因此，作者朋友说这句话，只是为了表示礼貌，并不是真的想要邀请作者有时间去拜访她。]

　　．The underlined phrase “pop in” in the second paragraph means________.

　　A．make many friends

　　B．make a special date

　　C．have a good time

　　D．pay a sudden visit

　　答案　D　[词义猜测题。根据第二段前两句内容可知，没有预料到的拜访会怎么样呢？在20世纪60年代，看起来人们——主要是亲戚，也有时候是朋友，串门是常事。因此，popping in指的就是drop­in visit。]

　　3．The woman from the neighborhood used to visit the author’s home to________.

　　A．seek comfort from my parents

　　B．meet new friends

　　C．listen to my parents’ story

　　D．taste nice dishes

　　答案　A　[细节理解题。根据第二段第五句中的“The neighbor lady，a worrier，was unloading her sadness while my mom quietly listened”可较容易排除B、C、D三项。]

　　．From the third paragraph of the passage，we can infer that________.

　　A．the author misses the lost good days

　　B．unexpected visitors are still welcome now

　　C．modern people prefer outdoor activities

　　D．there are more jobs for the housewives now

　　答案　A　[推理判断题。根据第三段作者分析的“串门”这种传统消失的原因及第二段作者描述的在过去人们经常串门的场景可知，作者很怀念这种传统。]

　　．The author writes the passage intending to________.

　　A．encourage people to be drop­in visitors

　　B．explain how to deal with unexpected visitors

　　C．share his feelings about the drop­in tradition

　　D．show the importance of making friends

　　答案　C　[写作意图题。通读全文可知，作者通过对“串门”这种传统的描述，主要是为了表达自己对这种传统的怀念，C项与此最为相等 。]
