19、却愿意去,这事使得小男孩不快乐(enjoyment),不激动(excitement),不吃惊(surprise),而是很失望(disappointment),因为这样会让他尴尬,让他蒙羞。2 A 语法规则 此句考查过去将来时态(would)。3 D 前后照应词义比较 这将是第一次他妈妈与老师和同学会面(meet)。notice(注意到) ,greet(问候,打招呼),accept( 认可,接受)都应该发生在 meet 动作之后,meet 是先决起始动作。前文的 his schools first teacher-parent meeting 已有所暗示。4 B 常识运用前后照应词义比较 小男孩
20、因为他妈妈的外表- 脸上有块疤痕-而感到羞愧(ashamed),而不是恶心(sick),害怕(afraid),疲惫(tired)。后文的 the little boy was still embarrassed (尴尬) and hid himself from everyone 有所暗示。5 C 词义辨析常识运用逻辑推理 妈妈的整个右脸上是一块明显的疤痕。疤痕在脸上不是包住(include)脸面,不是通过(pass)脸面,也不是遮蔽(shade)脸面,而是直接覆盖/铺在脸面上。include 包住, 关住,包含, 包括;pass 经过,通过;cover 覆盖,铺,往往是物体与物体之间直接接触
21、;shade 遮蔽,使变暗,往往强调与物体之间有一定的空隙,使光变暗而形成遮蔽。6 A 前后照应逻辑推理常识运用 小男孩很在乎(care about),也想过(think about),但没有听人说过(hear about),从来就不愿谈论(talk about)妈妈为什么又怎么得上的疤痕。7 A 词义比较逻辑推理 家长会上,妈妈的自然的美貌和亲切的举动给到会的人留下了深刻的印象(impress)。impress 使得深刻印象,打动;surprise 使惊奇/惊讶;excite 使兴奋, 使激动;comfort 安慰, 使舒适。8 D 词义比较逻辑推理 虽然(in spite of)妈妈脸上有
22、疤痕,但这疤痕却掩饰不住妈妈的美丽和亲切。in sight of 临近, 可被.望见;by means of 通过,用,借助于;by way of 经由, 作为, 为了;in spite of 虽然,尽管仍,相当于 though she had the scar on her face。9 A 逻辑推理词义比较 但小男孩仍然感到尴尬难堪,而把自己藏(hide)起来,以免被大家看见。hide 隐藏,掩饰,强调不被他人看见、发现;protect 保护,强调不被他人伤害;separate 分开, 隔离,使之不聚在一起;escape 逃避, 避免,强调不被他人逮住而免去责任。10 C 词义比较逻辑推理
23、常识运用 他真的躲避了起来,却听到(hear)了妈妈和老师之间的一段对话。注意 within(在的范围内 , 不超出的范围)的意义。hear 是先决起始动作,先有了 hear,而后才会有 understand(明白,了解)、learn(获悉)和 remind(提醒,使想起)。11 A 常识运用逻辑推理词义比较 老师询问的是妈妈脸上的疤痕,就肯定是小心谨慎地(carefully),而决不是、也用不着严肃认真地(seriously),紧张不安 (nervously),忧虑不安地(anxiously)。12 B 语句连贯词义比较 事情发生在小男孩还是婴儿的时候 (when)。as 当时,通常指伴随着
24、另一情况而发生;when 当的时候,指某一行为或情况发生之时,另一行为或情况也发生,通常是短暂行为;since 自以来,通常与现在完成时态连用;while当的时候,通常指与另一情况的同时发生,表示持续行为。13 D 句法结构 此题考查 tooto do sth.的结构。VIP 20110721 厦门新东方学校414 A 逻辑推理固定搭配 因为火控制不住(out of control),所以大家就都不敢闯进去救人。out of control 不受控制,失去了控制;under control 被控制住;in control 在控制之下;over 不与 control 搭配。15 C 词义比较逻辑
25、推理 妈妈被坠落的木头撞得失去了知觉 (senseless)。helpless 无助的, 无能的, 没用的;hopeless 没有希望的, 绝望的, 不可救药;senseless 不省人事的, 无感觉的;useless 无用的, 无效的, 无益的。16 D 词义比较逻辑推理前后照应 妈妈她用不着指着(point),擦揩(wipe)脸面,老师能够看得到,它也用不着展示(show),而是摸了摸(touch)她烧坏的右脸,有所感触。注意与后句的联系。17 B 词义比较逻辑推理 这个疤痕很丑 (ugly),很严重(serious),很恐怖(frightening) ,这都没有关系,问题是它会持久(la
26、sting)而再也抹不去。 18 D 词义比较逻辑推理常识运用 可即便是这样,且直到今天,我忘不了(forget),我也考虑(consider)了,我也认可(recognize)了,但我从来没有后悔(regret)过我所做的一切。19 B 词义辨析逻辑推理 小男孩把妈妈楼在怀里,他感到了妈妈为他作出的牺牲的重大意义(sense)。honor 尊敬,敬意,荣誉,光荣;sense 意义,意味,意思;happiness 幸福,快乐;pride 自豪,骄傲。20 C 词义比较逻辑推理 在这天余下的时间里,他不是突然地 (suddenly),静静地(quietly),轻微地(slightly) ,而是紧
27、紧地(tightly)握着妈妈的手。这是一篇记叙文。作者出生于一个贫穷的单亲家庭,然而在母亲的帮助与教导下,他克服了重重困难,从后进生一跃名列前茅,成为优秀生,并实现了自己的梦想,成为了一名医生。这一成功的事例说明:在教育子女上,父母才是最好的老师。36A 从下文可知,我小时候就开始有了信念。37C 接着指出是什么信念,梦想成为一名医生。38C 据母亲观察,成功人士花在阅读上的时间要比在看电视上多得多。39D 此处使用 did 代替前文的 spent, 避免重复。40A 由 announced 得知,我和弟弟每周只能看三到四个预先挑选好的电视节目。41B 由上下文可知,母亲非常严厉。我们每人必
28、须阅读从底特律公共图书馆借来的两本书,还要上交读书心得。present sth. to sb.把某物呈交给某人。42D 由 My mother was illiterate.得知,此处是一个计谋。43A 由 but 推测出:读中学时,我曾是个优等生,但好景不长。44B 原因是:图漂亮衣服,想和别人出去闲荡。 hang out 闲荡。45C 由下文 scrubbing floors and cleaning bathrooms 可知,此处意为:母亲干完各种活儿回到家。working 在此用作及物动词,意为:完成,干完。46D 此处是 buy sbsth.的结构。意为:由你来替这个家买伙食、付账单
29、。47A 此处是“with + 宾语+ 宾补”结构。money 与 leave 之间是被动关系。剩下的钱你都拿去买意大利针织衫吧。48B 因为由自己理财并从中想赚一点钱,很显然,这样的决定让我开心不已。 。49D 由 but 可知并非如我所愿。但当我把该花的钱都分配完毕,手里已分文不剩。50C 我的母亲不愧是个理财能手,她能让我们有地方住、有各样的食物吃,更不用说买衣服了。keep a roof over ones head 有地方住;put an idea into ones head 使想起;gave an impression on 留下印象;have eyes in the back of ones head 多留心不露声色。51A let alone 更不用说;let out 使放出;let in 使进入;leave alone 不理会,不理睬。52C 通过这件事,我还意识到,一时的满足并不会给我带来什么成就,而成功需要智力上的准备。于是我又发奋努力学习。53B 最终我实现了自己当医生的梦想。 fulfill 履行工作,完成任务,达到愿望。54A 由上文可知,我母亲,她是这样一个女人,粗通文墨、家境贫寒,却利用家长的身份改变了世上很多人的生活。55C 由上文得知:没有那件事比对子女的养育更重要了。VIP 20110721 厦门新东方学校5
