【解析】

試題分析:作者以倒敘的形式講述了發(fā)生在他身上的故事。而作者年老多病的父親卻交給了他這樣一個道理:他放棄了一切卻一無所獲,得到的只是家人的愛—不要斤斤計較,要以愛心來對待一切,面對生活,使自己的內(nèi)心平和。

1.B考查副詞afterwards意為“其后,后來,繼后,然后,以后”。therefore意為“因此,為此,所以”。meanwhile意為“同時”however意為“然而”,表示轉(zhuǎn)折或?qū)Ρ,多位于句中,前后須加逗號,可位于句首或句末,用于句首,后面可加逗號,所引導的分句用于句末,前面可加逗號。根?jù)兩句中的learned how to accept life as it is和did not teach me acceptance可判斷出這兩句是轉(zhuǎn)折和對比關(guān)系。

2.2】C考查形容詞weak意為“柔弱的;虛弱的,有病的”,與ill屬同類概念。tired意為“疲勞的”。poor意為“貧窮的”。slow意為“慢的”。都屬于健康的范疇,根據(jù)全句的邏輯意思和下文的提示(he can no longer walk),選擇一個與ill并列意義的詞。

3.3】D考查副詞once意為“曾經(jīng)”,常與一般過去時連用,表示過去曾經(jīng)發(fā)生的事。根據(jù)下文中的a terrible illness可判斷出作者的父親過去曾經(jīng)是一個強壯的人。already意為“已經(jīng)”,常與現(xiàn)在進行時連用,表示已經(jīng)完成的動作。still意為“仍然是”,與下文所講的作者的父親得力重病矛盾。only意為“僅僅”

4.4】A考查動詞。take away使(感情,感覺等)消失,帶走;throw away丟棄某物(因不用或不需要);send away把…送往另一地方;put away收好

5.5】B考查形容詞。Impossible過于絕對,只失去說話能力;hopeful沒有指望的,絕望的;stressful產(chǎn)生壓力的 由上文爸爸體弱多病和下文他說的話,得知爸爸甚至講話都困難,故選B項。

6.6】C考查動詞。開始交談,談論生活,不是籠統(tǒng)地講擔心誰的生活(worry about),關(guān)心誰的生活(care about),詢問誰的生活(ask about),故選C項。

7.7】D考查名詞。我跟他們講了我的一個信條(我個人相信的事)(belief).由下文可知不是我的一個什么經(jīng)驗(experience);抱負(ambition)或某個決定(decision),故選D項。

8.8】A考查連詞。as引導時間狀語從句,意為“隨著”,從句中的謂語動詞常是表示發(fā)展的動詞如develop,grow up,go等。這里表示隨著我們的成長。since引導時間狀語從句常與現(xiàn)在進行時連用。before引導時間狀語從句表示“在……之前”。till引導時間狀語從句表示“一直……”,.隨著(as)我們長大,我們常常放棄一些東西

9.9】A考查動詞。suggest意為“暗示,表明”。promise意為“承諾,許諾”。require意為“需要”,總的看起來是這樣的,因為是一個人的看法及一般情況,語氣不是特肯定,又不是某個人的建議或要求,故其他三個選項不可取

10.0】C考查動詞。speak up(爸爸)突然大聲說,說到;turn up擰大,開大;出現(xiàn);sun up歸納,總結(jié);判斷,估量(此前,爸爸并沒說話,故不能選);open up開拓,開辟;開始暢談,傾吐心事(不是一兩句話,更不能突然開始),故選C項。

11.1】B考查代詞。根據(jù)上下文及作者爸爸當時的狀況,所謂“美好的事”一無所有了;從外表看只是一個體弱多病,非常難過的老年。故give up everything,故選B項。

12.2】A考查副詞。爸爸提出一個問題,我以為讓我來回答,我正在冥思苦想的時候,他卻自己給出了答案,這出乎我的意料,故選A項。

13.3】B考查動詞辨析 have意為“有”。accept意為“接受”。enjoy意為“享受……的樂趣”gain意為“獲得”,指經(jīng)過付出巨大努力之后為自己獲得或贏得有一定價值的東西,強調(diào)所得之物能夠造成的優(yōu)勢。由于父親得病,受到了家庭的照顧,所以他說得到了家庭的愛,故選B項。

14.4】A考查動詞。A. moved移動;B. amazed吃驚;C. attracted吸引;D. warned警告;卮疳槍ι厦姘职痔岢龅哪莻問題:What did I gain?,故選A項。

15.5】C考查情態(tài)動詞should表示“應該”。could表示可能性。might表示可能性,但可能性很小would表示過去某段時間的習慣,即每當惱怒時,作者總是想起父親的話。

16.6】C考查形容詞。一想到爸爸的話,我的內(nèi)心就平靜下來,控制情緒;而不是保持安靜(quiet),放松(relaxed)或高興(happy),故選C項。

17.7】B考查形容詞。一想到爸爸既然能夠用對別人的愛來代替他巨大的疼痛或痛苦這件事,我就必然能夠(be able to do)放棄自己的不值一提的易怒情緒,故選B項。

18.8】D考查動詞。這樣(in this way),我就從爸爸身上學會了寬容的力量(power of acceptable)。Method指解決某個具體問題的科學的,符合邏輯的方法,通常搭配是with this/that …method.,故選D項。

19.9】B考查動詞,F(xiàn)在我想知道,如果我從小的時候起,就認真地聽我爸爸的,我還會學到其他什么東西呢?要注意該句用的是虛擬語氣,故選B項。

20.20】D考查動詞。即便如此,我也不是特別的遺憾,我很感謝我爸爸送給我的這個禮物,這篇短文講述了作者的父親因為生病而失去了活動甚至于說話的能力,但是他仍然認為自己獲得了家庭的愛,表現(xiàn)了對生活的正確態(tài)度,所以作者把父親所說的I gained the love of my family.作為父親送給自己的禮物

考點:人生感悟類短文。

An earthquake is a trembling or shaking of the ground caused by the sudden release(釋放) of energy stored in the rocks below the surface. Generally, earthquakes last only seconds. Strong ground shaking during a medium(中等的) to large earthquake generally lasts about 10 to 30 seconds. Aftershocks(余震) can occur once in a while for weeks or even months.

Many people think that there is an “earthquake season” or a kind of “ earthquake weather ”.As a matter of fact, there isn’t. Earthquakes can occur at any time of the year and at time of day or night. Earthquakes occur under all weather conditions-sunny, wet. or cold without any special weather tendency(傾向).

Also, you don’t need to worry that the ground will open up and swallow people when earthquakes occur. Open ground cracks may form during an earthquake, for example, to land sliding or ground falling. However, such cracks tend to be open gaps (they don’t “ swallow”) that a person could stand in afterwards.

The safest place in an earthquake is an open field because buildings and falling objects can injure or kill you. If you are indoors, when you feel the ground start to shake, take cover immediately under a table or strong piece of furniture, placing something between falling objects and yourself. Don’t “ attempt to use the stairs or an elevator to get out of the building..
