Question

【題目】閱讀下面短文, 完成文后小題

Pat McGee noticed her daughter hadn't returned to the dentist's waiting room just before her operation (手術(shù)).

She walked to the bathroom and found Jessica McDaniels, 32, in there, crying.

McGee took her daughter into her arms.

"We're going to say 'goodbye' to the old Jessica," she said. "And 'hi' to the new Jessica."

McDaniels, from St. Louis, US, had been wishing for this day since high school, when the bullying (霸凌) about her teeth started. Now that it was finally happening, she was worried and afraid.

It was a social media post（媒體帖子）two months ago that got her there. Someone posted a photo of McDaniels with words about her overbite (齙牙). (A)The post was shared many times, with many people making mean words on her appearance.

The bullies didn't know the road McDaniels had traveled. She had nine operations on her ears from age 2 to 12 years old. She was almost deaf in her right ear. Her adult teeth didn't start coming in until she was 11 or 12, and doctors couldn't (B) figure out why they were pushed outward. It got worse as she got older. McDaniels had been trying for years to get her teeth fixed, but it was always too expensive.

When her story got out, dentists wanted to help her. One of them, Maryann Udy, got in contact with McDaniels and offered her a new smile for free. McDaniels wasn't sure at first, so she called her mother. The mother told her that Udy was her angel. "You need to do it," she told her daughter.

The operation was long and complicated (復(fù)雜的). It took weeks for the swelling (腫塊) to go down, and several more months before McDaniels' new smile was ready.

Later that year, she looked at her old photos online and smiled. "I loved (C)her," she said.

"She's thankful to be in less pain, to be on the way to a new smile. Sometimes, though, it feels like something is missing from who she was."

Still, she loves taking selfies（自拍） and admiring her new appearance.

"I looked good before," she said. "I look even better now."

【解析】

文章講述了McDaniels因為疾病有齙牙，她在上學(xué)時期經(jīng)常受到欺負(fù)，后來她的照片被傳到社交媒體上，得到了醫(yī)生們的免費治療，現(xiàn)在她更加自信了。

【1】根據(jù)文中Now that it was finally happening, she was worried and afraid. 現(xiàn)在事情終于發(fā)生了，她又擔(dān)心又害怕。可知她手術(shù)前世很緊張的，又擔(dān)心又害怕，故答案為Nervous / worried and afraid。

【2】The post帖子；was shared被分享；many times很多次；with介詞，表示伴隨；many people很多人；making制造；mean words低劣的話語；on關(guān)于；her appearance她的外貌；綜合之后可以看出，這里表達的是“帖子伴隨著對她外貌的低劣的語言被轉(zhuǎn)發(fā)很多次”，故答案為：帖子被轉(zhuǎn)發(fā)了許多次, 充滿了人們對她外貌的卑劣的語言。

【3】根據(jù)所給的句子She could hardly hear anything in her right ear. 她右耳幾乎聽不到任何聲音�？芍�文中的She was almost deaf in her right ear.是與題目中所給的意思相同的，都是說她的右耳朵幾乎聽不見，故答案為She was almost deaf in her right ear.

【4】根據(jù)文中句子Her adult teeth didn’t start coming in until she was 11 or 12, and doctors couldn’t (B) figure out why they were pushed outward. 直到她11歲或12歲，她的恒牙才開始長出來，醫(yī)生們無法……為什么它們會向外長。可知，這里的figure out指的是弄明白，搞清楚，故答案為：明白。

【5】根據(jù)文中“She’s thankful to be in less pain, to be on the way to a new smile. Sometimes, though, it feels like something is missing from who she was.” “她很感激自己能少受點痛苦，在通往新微笑的路上。不過，有時候，她覺得自己身上少了些什么�！笨芍�前句中的her指的是她手術(shù)之后的全新的自己，故答案為a new Jessica McDaniels。
