Signs can sometimes be seen at the entrance of a house, expressing that a tramp(流浪漢)has passed. This special sign-language is frequently   50   by tramps to inform their    51   whether the host of a certain house is friendly or unfriendly, and to   52   them the trouble of making unnecessary calls.
Quite   53   one day, I came across a real tramp. He was such a rare sight these days that I stood some distance away and watched him. He was dressed just as a tramp should be in, old worn trousers, and a jacket many sizes too big for him. On his head there was a battered old hat and his boots were so old and worn; they were almost coming into pieces.
But the man himself looked cheerful as if he had not a   54   in the world. He rubbed his nose with his forefinger,    55   a funny turn, laid a small parcel    56   the front gate, and began   57   a sign made by a former caller. Although the sign was meaningless to me, it must have been   58  , for the tramp’s face lit up with satisfaction. He entered the front gate   59   and rang the bell. When the door opened, I saw him raise his hat   60   couldn’t hear his words. The   61   was very short indeed, for no sooner had he spoken a few words than the door closed fiercely in his face.
I felt   62   for him as he walked sadly out of the house. But just as quickly, his face lit up again and he moved quickly towards the gate. There he stopped, looked at the sign, and shook his head seriously as if he had made a bad mistake.   63   deeply into his pockets, he produced a piece of chalk, rubbed out the existing sign and made a new one in its place. He stared at it for a moment smiling to himself, then gathered his belongings, pushed back his hat and began walking towards the next house at an unhurried   64  , whistling as he went along.

試題分析:流浪漢們常將他們所使用的特殊符號(hào)畫在住戶的墻上,告知同行這家主人是否友好,可否去拜訪.本文講述一個(gè)流浪漢根據(jù)符號(hào)的指引去一戶人家乞討,結(jié)果卻吃了閉門羹.后來他發(fā)現(xiàn)是符號(hào)錯(cuò)了。
小題1:考查動(dòng)詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。employ使用;雇傭; make制造; take拿走; put up舉起,張貼。這種特殊的符號(hào)常被流浪漢用來告知同行是否可以進(jìn)入該戶人家乞討。put up張貼,據(jù)下文,符號(hào)是畫在墻上,故不可選。故選A。
小題2:考查名詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。coaches教練; classmates 同學(xué); fellows同行; friends朋友。據(jù)上下文是指告知同行。同行不一定都是朋友,故排除D項(xiàng),所以選C。
小題3:考查動(dòng)詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。share分享; save節(jié)省; give給 ;urge催促。據(jù)上文知,有了這種符號(hào),流浪漢們就可省下做一些不必要的拜訪的麻煩,故選B。
小題4:考查介詞短語及上下文的呼應(yīng)。從后半句came across得知為巧遇by chance。故選D
小題5:考查名詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。success成功的人; care 關(guān)心; failure失敗的人; responsibility責(zé)任。那個(gè)人看起來非常高興好像不是一個(gè)失敗的人,故選C。
小題6:考查動(dòng)詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。give 給; launch開始,發(fā)射; set樹立; make a turn轉(zhuǎn)一圈。他滑稽地轉(zhuǎn)了一個(gè)圈”。故選D。
小題7:考查介詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。by 在附近; behind在……后面。流浪漢把包放在前門的旁邊,故選A。
小題8:考查動(dòng)詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。draw畫; kiss輕拂;  correct改正; study研究。據(jù)上下文知這里是“研究”,“仔細(xì)看”那個(gè)符號(hào),想弄清它代表的意思。故選D。
小題9:考查形容詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。sad傷心的; strange奇怪的; funny 滑稽的; exciting令人興奮的。根據(jù)下文for the tramp’s face lit up with satisfaction.指符號(hào)有幫助的,提供了好消息。故選D。
小題10:考查副詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。confidently自信地; innocently天真地; consequently 因此; consciously自覺地。他自信地走到前門摁響了門鈴。故選A。
小題11:考查連詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。and表示前后是順承關(guān)系; but表示前后是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系; however表示前后是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系; therefore表示前后是因果關(guān)系。我看見他舉起帽子但是聽不清他說的話。故選B。
小題12:考查名詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。conversation談話; introduction 介紹; argument論證; greeting問候。流浪漢與主人之間的談話。故選A。
小題13:考查形容詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。Happy高興的; frightened害怕的; capable 能干的; sorry難過的。看到他悲傷地走出來,我為他感到難過。故選D。
小題14:考查動(dòng)詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。dig挖,插; steal偷; put放; look看。把手插到口袋里去找東西。故選A。
小題15:考查名詞及上下文的呼應(yīng)。step 腳步; position 職位; pace 步法,步速; situation形式。pace這里指步伐節(jié)奏.流浪漢邁著不緊不慢的步伐,吹著口哨繼續(xù)往下家去乞討。故選C。
點(diǎn)評(píng):一般情況下完形填空題語篇的第一句話和最后一句話都是完整的。針對(duì)這個(gè)特點(diǎn),考生應(yīng)該重點(diǎn)閱讀這一頭一尾的兩個(gè)句子。快速閱讀全文,掌握全文的大意和主題。? 
 在閱讀全文時(shí)千萬不要急于看文章后每個(gè)題目的選項(xiàng),應(yīng)該對(duì)空格所在的上下文仔細(xì)閱讀,預(yù)測(cè)可能出現(xiàn)的答案。對(duì)于難以確定答案的題,要根據(jù)上下文語境,運(yùn)用語法和詞匯知識(shí),反復(fù)推敲以求得解答。對(duì)于同義詞和近義詞的選項(xiàng),在充分考慮到上下文具體語境下特別注意這些同義詞和近義詞搭配。完成全部問題后應(yīng)該將答案帶入文章再通讀全文,核查答案是否合適、正確、盡量少出錯(cuò)誤。

The doctor put his sleepy head out of the bedroom window and said, “Er? Who’s there?”
“Oh, Doctor.” Peter called up to him, “I have very   17  news for you. My wife   18 ill with a terrible stomachache. I was on my way to bring you to her, but she called me back to say the trouble had suddenly  19  her. So you need not come. Go back to   20  now, and sleep well!”

The most frightening words in the English language are “our computer is down.” You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “I’m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.”
“If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.”
“I can’t write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.” I looked down at the counter and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do you do?”
“We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.”
“So when it goes down, you go down with it.”
“That’s right, sir.”
“How long will the computer be down?” I wanted to know.
“I have no idea. Sometimes it’s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There is no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down, it won’t answer us.”
After the girl told me they had no backup computer, I said, “Let’s forget the computer. What about your planes? They are still flying, aren’t they?”
“I can’t tell without asking the computer.”
“Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he’s flying to Washington.” I suggested.
“I wouldn’t know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn’t take you if you didn’t have a ticket.”
“Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?”
“I wouldn’t know,” she said, pointing at the desk screen. “Only IT knows. It can’t tell me.”
By this time there were quite a few people standing in line. The words soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage.
小題1:The word “down” in the sentence ‘Our computer is down.’ means _____________.
A.fallingB.downcastC.dropD.dead
小題2:The best title of the article is _________.
A.Asking the Computer
B.The Computer of the Airport
C.The Most Frightening Words
D.When the Computer Is Down
小題3:What could the girl in the ticket office do for the passengers without asking the computer?
A.She could answer the passengers’ questions
B.She could do nothing.
C.She could sell a ticket.
D.She could write out a ticket.

Greg Woodburn, a student at the University of Southern California, spends a lot of time cleaning sneakers he collected.But soon the shoes will be sent to poor children in the United States and 20 other countries, thanks to Woodburn’s Share Our Soles (S.O.S.) charity.
A high school track star in the town of Ventura, California, Woodburn was treated in hospital for months with knee and hip injuries.
“I started thinking about the health benefits, the friendship and the confidence I got from running,” he says, “And I realized there are children who don’t even have shoes.”
Woodburn gathered up his old sneakers, then asked his friends to donate.His goal was to have 100 pairs by Christmas this year.When he collected more than 500 pairs, he decided to turn the shoe drive into a year-round endeavor.
Back then, the sneakers came from donation boxes at the YMCA and the local sporting goods store and from door-to-door pickups.Woodburn has now set up collection boxes at two high schools, city gym and recreation center.He has started accepting adult sizes and sandals.So far, S.O.S has collected and donated more than 3,000 pairs.
Woodburn has cleaned all the shoes.After sorting the shoes by size, Woodburn selects the good shoes for the washing machine and the worn-out ones for recycling.
To ship the footwear, Woodburn teamed with Sports Gift, a nonprofit organization that provides soccer and baseball equipment to children around the world.Keven Baxter, founder and president, says, “We’d send kids balls and shoes.I've heard that for many of these kids, these old sneakers are the only shoes they had.They wear them to school and to do sports.So Greg’s running shoes were a nice addition for us.”
For many recipients, the shoes represent opportunity.Two young boys in Southern California attended school on alternate days because they shared a pair of shoes.They were too big for one boy and too small for the other.Thanks to S.O.S., each brother received his own pair of shoes.The boys now attend school daily and enjoy their learning.When they graduate, they say, they will help a stranger, just as Woodburn helped them.
