22、诺是在二战后出生的,不是二战的幸存者,故排除A 项;倒数第三段提到了“the loss of identity”,但那是在介绍帕特里克莫迪亚诺文学作品的主题并非 B项内容,故排除 B 项;根据第二段可知帕特里克莫迪亚诺在获得诺贝尔奖之前只是在法国很有名气,与 D 项中的“world-famous”相悖,故排除 D 项。根据第六段第一句可知帕特里克莫迪亚诺的生活受到了二战的影响,故答案为 C 项。3.B 推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的“uncovered the life-world of the occupation”(揭开了被占领期间人们的生活世界)及倒数第二、三、四段可推知答案为 B 项。
23、4.B 推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句可知答案为 B 项。.完形填空语篇解读 本文为记叙文。作者回忆了以前一位特别的学生,从他身上“我们”学到了很多东西。1.B 根据下文可知,The Thinking Laboratory 是一个教室的名字,所以每天 27 名孩子都要进入教室上课。2.A The Thinking Laboratory 是孩子们投票给教室起的一个名字。3.D 根据语境可知,与 The Thinking Laboratory 相比,Room 104(104 房间)这个名字枯燥无味,dull 符合语境需要。4.B 根据上文的 elementary school 可知,Freddy
24、是一名普通的学生。5.D 根据下文的 fun 可知 laugh 与之对应。6.A saddest 与 misfortune 对应。他会因为别人的不幸而最为伤心。disbelief 不信,怀疑;dishonesty 不诚实的行为;mistake 错误。77.D 作者给孩子们送 T 恤,并且给他们忠告,应该是在学年即将结束时,且下文讲到了孩子们毕业后的情况,故D 项正确。8.B 在孩子们即将毕业时,“我”送给他们印有字的 T 恤,以此作为特殊的礼物(gift)。9.A 根据下文“我”向他们强调动词的重要性可知,friends 符合语境需要。award 奖励;master 主人;task 任务。10
25、.C 此处与 dull 对应,故 fun 正确。句意:我曾建议孩子们,虽然动词好像很枯燥,但是他们一生中所做的大部分有趣的事情都会是动词。11.D 下文提到了 Freddy 毕业后的消息,由此可知“我”遇到了以前的学生,他们提供了老同学的最新消息。update 在此处指“最新的消息”。12.A 由后面的 from high school 可知,此处指他高中毕业之后,故 graduation 正确。13.C 他上小学时,会因为别人的不幸而最为伤心,根据语境可知此处表示他在毕业之后,和四十年前“我”遇到的那个人一样,仍然是一个乐于助人的(caring)人。14.B 他是个乐于助人的人,在商店上夜班
26、时,他让一个无家可归的人睡在自己的卡车里。15.C 由“买房子”可知 lent 正确。句意:还有一次,他借钱给一个朋友买房子。16.D 根据下文的 classroom 以及 teaching 可知,该动作与教学有关。observe 观察;prepare 准备;design 设计;conduct 进行,实施。workshop 意为“讲习班”,conduct 符合题意。17.C 妇女打断了“我”的工作,她为此解释,故 C 项正确。regret 后悔;avoid 避免;excuse 为找理由;ignore 忽视。18.A 根据 envelope(信封)可知,A 项正确,即“拆开信封”。19.C 根据
27、下文可知信封里面是那件 T 恤和来自 Freddy 的妈妈的短信(note)。20.B 虽然 Freddy 被从“我们”身边带走了,但是“我们”都从他身上学到了一些东西。choose 选择;take 拿,取;expect 期望;borrow 借用。.短文改错1.第一句:excitedexciting excited 用于修饰“人”,exciting 用于修饰“物”,此处修饰 basketball match,为“物”,故应用 exciting。2.第二句:去掉 was consist of 由组成。该短语不能用于被动语态。3.第二句:opposite 前加 the 此处指对手球队根本不是我们的
28、对手。定冠词 the 表示特指。4.第三句:hardlyhard 考查副词 hard 修饰动词 was fighting,而 hardly 是一个否定副词,意为“几乎不”。5.第三句:uponof 考查固定搭配:regardless of 不管,不顾。86.第四句:surprisedsurprise 根据修饰词 no 可知,要用名词形式。It comes as no surprise 这一点也不让人惊讶。7.第四句:respectingrespect 此处指失败者赢得了我们的尊重。根据语境和修饰词 our 可知,要用名词形式。8.第五句:第一个 havehas 主语 The result 是单
29、数形式,所以谓语动词也要用单数形式。9.第五句:we 前加 that 该表语从句意思完整结构正确,应该用 that 引导且不能省略。10.第六句:mademake 该句是部分倒装句式,情态动词 can 提到了主语前,因此动词用原形。.书面表达写作提示1.本文为提纲式作文,体裁为书信。人称以第一人称和第三人称为主,以一般现在时和一般将来时为主体时态。2.文章要点:1)展览时间、地点;2)展览内容:中国传统剪纸艺术的历史和作品。One possible version:Dear Henry,Im Li Hua, one of your students.
