??? She waited patiently for the pharmacist (藥劑師) to give her some ??? ,but he was too busy at this moment. Tess twisted her feet to make a noise. Nothing. She cleared her ????? with the most awful sound she could muster. No good.

??? “Well, I want to talk to you about my brother,” Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone. “His name is Andrew and he has something bad ???? inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost?”

“We don’t sell miracles here, little girl. I’m sorry, ????? I can’t help you,” the pharmacist said, his voice ????? a little.

There was a man there whose clothes were admirable. He asked the little girl, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”

“I don’t know” Tess replied with tears in her eyes. “I just know he's ????? sick and Mommy says he needs an operation. But my Daddy can’t pay ????? it, so I want to use my money.”

“How much do you have?” asked the man. “One dollar and eleven cents,” Tess answered.

“A dollar and eleven cents ― the ????? price of a miracle for your little brother,” smiled the man, “Take me to ????? you live. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”

That well-dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon, specializing in neurosurgery (神經(jīng)外科). The operation was completely ????? charge and it wasn’t long before Andrew was home again and did well.

Mom and Dad were happy but they wonder how much the operation would have ????? . Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost…one dollar and eleven cents…plus the ????? of a little child.?????

1.B 考查代詞辨析 as 作為；all 所有；all what 所有這些；that 這個；句意 她所知道的是他的弟弟得了很嚴(yán)重的病。All 做句子主語，謂語動詞是was， all was that he was very sick，she know做all的定語從句，也可換成 all that ，所以選B項。

2.C 考查短語辨析 in need 需要；in short 簡而言之；out of 擺脫；sort of 這種。根據(jù)下文提到They were moving to an apartment complex next month because Daddy didn’t have the money for the doctor’s bills 他們將到搬到小公寓去，因為沒有錢會賬單了，所以他們沒有錢了，out of money，沒有錢了。

3.A 考查名詞辨析 miracle 奇跡；doctor 醫(yī)生；God 上帝；operation 手術(shù)。根據(jù)第五段提到His name is Andrew and he has something bad ????? inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him now只有奇跡才能救得了他，所以選A項。

4.A? 考查名詞辨析 change 零錢；jellies果凍；cnadies 糖果；cookies餅干。根據(jù)下文提到After carefully placing the coins back in the jar, she slipped out of the back door當(dāng)她仔細(xì)把所以硬幣放回罐子，她溜出家。所以她倒出所以零錢，仔細(xì)的數(shù)。所以選A項。

5.C? 考查名詞辨析 way 方法；doubt 懷疑；chance機(jī)會；wonder奇跡。根據(jù)上文提到The total had to be absolutely exact. 總數(shù)完全是準(zhǔn)確的，所以不可能有錯，故選C項。

6.C? 考查動詞辨析 drove 駕駛；fought戰(zhàn)斗；made 制造；struggled 奮斗。句意 當(dāng)她仔細(xì)把硬幣收到罐子里，溜出家，前往六條街外的醫(yī)生家。Make one’s way 前往某處。

7.B? 考查名詞辨析 pills 藥片；attention 注意力；medicine 藥；tablets藥片。根據(jù)下文提到but he was too busy at this moment 他很忙，所以指她耐心的等待著醫(yī)生來關(guān)注她，故選B項。

8.D? 考查名詞辨析 mouth 嘴；eyes 眼；ears 耳朵；throat 咽喉。根據(jù)上文提到Tess twisted her feet to make a noise 她動了動腳發(fā)出一點(diǎn)噪音，不管用。然后她清了清嗓子，使大勁發(fā)出難聽的聲音，沒有用。所以選D項。

9.C? 考查形容詞辨析 anxious 憂慮的；exciting令人興奮的；annoyed 惱怒的；tired累的。根據(jù)下文提到What do you want? I’m talking to my brother from Chicago醫(yī)生說，你想干什么，我正在和從芝加哥來的弟弟說話，所以醫(yī)生的態(tài)度不耐煩，所以C項符合語境。

11.D? 考查動詞辨析 finding 發(fā)現(xiàn)；planting 種植；showing展示；growing生長。句意 我的弟弟叫Andrew，在他的大腦時長了一個不好的東西，我父親說只有奇跡才能救他，奇跡多少錢呢？根據(jù)語境得知是soemthing bad growing 分詞做后置定語。

12.C? 考查連詞辨析 and 和；or else否則；but 但是；or 否則。句意 我們這不賣奇跡，對不起，我不能幫到你。but不可以省略，因為英文中兩個句子是不可直接相連接的。必須用連詞連接所以選C項。

13.D? 考查非謂語動詞與語境理解。句意：他的聲音柔軟了很多。根據(jù)上文提到他聽到她弟弟的事，很是同情，情緒也與剛才有所不同，柔軟了許多。考查獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)。

16.B? 考查形容詞辨析 actual 實際的；exact確切的；average 平均的；true真的。根據(jù)上文提到小女孩說她只有一美元十一美分。所以這個男人笑著說，一美元十一美分就是奇跡的價格，這點(diǎn)錢恰恰就是奇跡的價格，所以選B項。

17.D? 考查名詞辨析 the place 地點(diǎn)；the apartment 公寓；the complex 聯(lián)合體。句意：帶我去你住 的地方，讓我看看你需要什么樣的奇跡。根據(jù)上文提到They were moving to an apartment complex next month because Daddy didn’t have the money for the doctor’s bills得知她住在the complex,所以選D項。

19.C? 考查動詞辨析 spent a花費(fèi)；paid 支付；cost 花費(fèi)；took 花費(fèi)。句意：爸爸媽媽很高興但他們想知道手術(shù)花了多少錢。cost的主語必須是某物sth.cost (sb.) some money,所以選C項。

Tess still stood hesitating like a swimmer about to make his dive, hardly knowing whether to return or move forward, when a figure came out from the dark door of the tent. It was a tall young man, smoking.
He had an almost black face, though red and smooth. His moustache was black with curled points, though he could not be more than twenty-three or-four. There was all unusual force in his face, and in his daring rolling eyes.
“Well, my beauty, what can I do for you?” said he, coming forward. And seeing that she was quite at a loss: “Never mind me, I am Mr. d’Urbervilles. Have you come to see me or my mother”
This differed greatly from what Tess had expected. She had dreamed of an aged and dignified face. She tried to keep calm and answered-“I came to see your mother, sir.”
“I am afraid you cannot see her-she is ill in bed,” replied the representative of the house; for this was Mr. Alec, the only son of the noble family. “What is the business you wish to see her about?”
“It isn’t business-it is-I can hardly say what.”
“Pleasure”
“Oh no. Why, sir, if I tell you, it will seem…”
Tess’s sense of a certain ridicule was now so strong that despite her general discomfort at being here, her rosy lips curved（彎曲）towards a smile, much to the attraction of the young man.
“It is so foolish,” she stammered（結(jié)結(jié)巴巴地說）; “I fear I can’t tell you”
“Never mind; I like foolish things. Try again, my dear,” said he kindly.
“Mother asked me to come,” Tess continued, “and, indeed, I was in the mind to do so myself.  But I did not think it would be like this. I came, sir, to tell you that we are of the same family as you.”
“Ho! Poor relations!”
“Yes.”
“Stokes”
“No; d’Urbervilles.”
“Ay, ay; I mean d’Urbervilles.”
“Our names are worn away to Durbeyfield; but we have several proofs that we are d’Urbervilles. The local scholars hold the view that we are, …and…and we have an old seal（印章）and a silver spoon marked with the same castle as yours. So mother said we ought to make ourselves known to you, as we’ve lost our horse by a bad accident; we can hardly make a living.”
“Very kind of your mother, I’m sure.” Alec looked at Tess as he spoke, in a way that made her uneasy. ”And so, my pretty girl, you’ve come on a friendly visit to us, as relations.”
“I suppose I have,” looking less confident and uncomfortable again.
“Well—there’s no harm in it. Where do you live? What are you?”
—Tess of the d’Urbervilles By Thomas Hardy
67. How does Tess feel in the whole course of the meeting with Alec？
A. Excited and hopeful                                 B. Nervous and uncomfortable
C. Surprised but comfortable                             D. Pleased but embarrassed
68. In the eyes of Tess, Alec is ________.
A. forceful and daring                                 B. unfriendly and talkative
C. a gentle and reliable man                             D. older than she had expected
69. Why does Tess pay the visit to the d’Urbervilles？
A. To see Alec himself.    
B. To see Alec’s mother.
C. To confirm that they are of the same family.
D. To make known their relationship and seek help.
70. Alec appears quite friendly to Tess mainly because ________.
A. Tess is his distant relation                       B. Tess looks polite to him
C. Toss is a pretty girl                         D. Tess looks ridiculous
