Ⅰ    语言知识及应用（共两节，满分45分）

第一节完形填空（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

1．B由上下文可知，还是小孩子的我，在圣诞节来临，我应该是收到礼物。

2．C联系上下文，此处表达的意思是别人问我收到了什么礼物。

3．C闯入；安居；出现；关闭。

4．B有了礼物在学校就不会感到难堪了。

5．B联系上下文，提到是newhouse，肯定选择first，西方人对于圣诞节很重视，是一家人团圆的日子，所以此时表达重要性。

6．B联系上下文，可了解当时作者那种激动的心情，所以应该是突然就想到了那件让她难忘的事情。

7．C根据第一段中描述那次圣诞节礼物给我的感慨，和作者此刻的心情，她认为送圣诞节礼物者给自己以及孩子们的重要性。

8．B此处表示“够得着，能联系上的”。

不能选择A，因为我不可能认识这么多此类儿童。

9．C从上一段可以推断，是我提出了（cameupwith）一个四十个人来我公司帮忙的计划。

10．B每个人都有属于自己的礼物，而且不是固定的，所以作者的意思是给孩子们启示：

每个人都是独一无二的。

11．A从下文的“One,two,three．Openyourpresents!

”可知，在分发礼物时，我提醒每个人开始不要打开礼物。

12．C根据下文的意思，此处表示大家等待的拆礼物的时刻到来了。

13．A根据文章上下文，他们灿烂的笑容照亮了整个房间。

14．D联系上下文，分析四个选项的意思，此处是表示欢乐。

15．A此处必须联系上下文。

有人记得我说明我重要。

第二节语法填空（共10小题;每小题1.5分，满分15分）
