【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。
文章讲述了一个80岁老人在生日来临之际对自己唯一的亲人的殷殷期盼,但她最终盼来的确是一种无言的伤痛和失望。
1.A.tookaway B.broughtup
C.movedoff D.setdown
解析 根据语境可知,此句是说老人把信件从“thegroundfloor”拿到“thesecondfloor”。
bringup意为“拿上来”,符合语境;takeaway意为“拿走,带走”,moveoff“意为“离开,出发”,setdown意为“记下,放下”,均不符合语境。
答案 B
2.A.occasion B.opportunity
C.ceremony D.anniversary
解析 根据语境可知,此处是指在特别的“场合”,与下文的othertimes作对比。
occasion意为“场合”,符合语境;opportunity意为“机会”,ceremony意为“典礼,仪式”,anniversary意为“周年纪念日”,均不符合语境。
答案 A
3.A.mustn’t B.mightn’t
C.wouldn’t D.needn’t
解析 根据语境可知,此处是指老人坚信女儿一定不会忘记自己的生日。
表示“一定不会”时,应用wouldn’t。
答案 C
4.A.occasionally B.always
C.almost D.seldom
解析 根据下文可知,Myra由于工作繁忙,平常很少给妈妈写信。
seldom意为“很少,不常”,符合语境;occasionally意为“偶尔,间或”,always意为“总是,一直”,almost意为“差不多,几乎”,均不符合语境。
答案 D
5.A.Unhappily B.Unfortunately
C.Unforgettably D.Unkindly
解析 根据常识可知,最爱的女儿Enid的离去自然是一件“不幸”的事情。
unfortunately意为“不幸地”,符合语境;unhappily意为“不开心地”,unforgettably意为“令人难忘地”,unkindly意为“刻薄地,不客气地”,均不符合语境。
答案 B
6.A.casual B.remote
C.special D.conventional
解析 根据常识可知,“人生70古来稀”,80岁生日自然尤为“特别”。
special意为“特别的”,符合语境;casual意为“随便的,临时的”,remote意为“遥远的,疏远的”,conventional意为“传统的,常见的”,均不符合语境。
答案 C
7.A.Evenif B.Sothat
C.Incase D.Nowthat
解析 句意为:
即使Myra不来,她也会送一份礼物。
由句意可知,前后分句之间为一种让步关系,所以应用表示让步关系的连词evenif,意为“即使”。
答案 A
8.A.proud B.capable
C.sure D.afraid
解析 根据下文的描述可知,老人坚信她的女儿即便不来也会送她礼物。
besureof为固定短语,意为“坚信,确信”,符合语境。
答案 C
9.A.sharpened B.weakened
C.widened D.brightened
解析 根据下文中的“Shewouldenjoyherday!
”可知,此处应指老人红光满面,面露喜色。
brighten意为“使闪亮,使快乐,使露喜色”,符合语境。
答案 D
10.A.excited B.alarmed
C.inspired D.satisfied
解析 根据语境可知,老人此时兴奋得像个孩子。
excited意为“兴奋的,激动的”,符合语境。
答案 A
11.A.thinking B.imagining
C.welcoming D.watching
解析 根据上下文语境可知,此句是指老人久久地站在门口,期盼着礼物的到来。
因此选watching最符合语境,意为“守望,眺望”。
答案 D
12.A.steadily B.wildly
C.nervously D.randomly
解析 根据语境可知,此处应选wildly,该词是一种夸张的表达,旨在体现老人无法掩饰的、因迫切而慌乱激动的心情。
答案 B
13.A.discontent B.loneliness
C.disappointment D.annoyance
解析 根据上下文语境可知,此句是指老人的心情由先前“狂乱的兴奋”跌之“沉重的失望”,是一种修辞上的对比。
disappointment意为“失望,沮丧”,符合语境。
答案 C
14.A.patient B.anxious
C.urgent D.mild
解析 根据语境可知,此句是指老人自我解嘲、自我安慰的一种无奈的表达,同时也暗含着一丝苦涩的期盼,所以老人告诫自己还要“耐心一点儿”。
patient意为“耐心的”,符合语境。
答案 A
15.A.immediately B.cheerfully
C.angrily D.unwillingly
解析 根据语境可知,此句是指老人对自己期盼的“礼物”非常失望,因此不愿意打开它。
unwillingly意为“不情愿地,勉强地”,符合语境;immediately意为“立刻,马上”,cheerfully意为“高高兴兴地”,angrily意为“愤怒地”,均不符合语境。
答案 D
16.A.Pinned B.Folded
C.Lined D.Roped
解析 根据下文的“apieceofpaper”可知,此处应选fold,意为“折叠,合拢”,表示“在卡片里折了一张纸”。
答案 B
17.A.card B.bonus
C.cheque D.cash
解析 根据下文中的“Thechequemovedquickly”可知,此处应选cheque,意为“支票”,符合语境。
答案 C
18.A.bent B.leaned
C.struggled D.stretched
解析 综合考虑老人此时的心情和神态可知,她拾起支票的姿势应该是“弯腰”。
bend意为“弯腰,弯曲”,符合语境。
lean意为“倾斜,倚靠”;struggle意为“努力,挣扎”,是一个中性词汇,不能体现身体的姿势;stretch意为“伸展,延伸”,均不符合语境。
答案 A
19.A.painful B.sad
C.expensive D.lovely
解析 根据语境可知,此处应选lovely,表现的是一种强烈的讽刺效果,增强了语言的表现力。
而painful,sad两词会使语言的色调索然无味,暗淡无光。
答案 D
20.A.moving B.trembling
C.reacting D.freezing
解析 根据语境可知,当老人看到女儿给自己的礼物竟然是一张支票时,她感到既失望又痛心,所以应选trembling,意为“颤抖的,战栗的”,生动地表现了老人当时的心情和神态;moving意为“动人的”,reacting意为“反应的”,freezing意为“冰冻的,严寒的”,均不符合语境。
答案 B
