32、封短信。学生现状1。每天在校时间：9小时2。每日作业时间：34小时3。每日课外活动时间：几乎没有4。每日睡眠时间：不足负担过重原因考试压力大，作业多，家长期望高注意：1。词数：100左右2。信的开头已经给出，不计入总词数。3。生词：负担过重：overlord；期望：expectationsDearDr.Helper,IamaSenior3student.IamnowingreatneedofyourhelpbecauseIcanhardlystandthegreatpressure._ Yourssincerely,LiHua【 答 案 解 析 】1B。can只能用于一般现在时和一般过去时（c
33、ould）的句子中，beableto可以用在任何时态中。另外，can只表明具备某种能力，但不一定做了，而beableto表明不仅具备了某种能力，而且还实际实施了。2B。justmyluck是习语，意为“真倒霉!”。notatall和thatsallright多用于对方感谢时的应答语，“不客气”。Nevermind用于对方道歉时的应答语，“没关系”。3A。nomatterwhat=whatever。4C。divideinto把分成。separatefrom把分开。5D。joininsth.意为“参加（活动）”。joinsb.“和某人一起”。takepartin意为“参加（活动）”。6D。第一空考
34、查过去分词短语作定语。第二空考查compete后的介词的用法。competein意为“在方面角逐”。competefor意为“为而角逐”。7C。practice是不可数名词，manya修饰可数名词的单数形式，agreatmany修饰复数名词，故排除A、D选项。takeundercontrol是固定搭配，意为“控制住”。8B。will表示习惯，意为“常常”。9C。10A。sharein意为“分担一部分”。11A。playanimportantpart/role意为“起重要作用”。在这个结构中part/role只能用单数，其前的不定冠词不能漏掉。12B。inhonourof意为“为纪念”。13B。
35、makeawaywith意为“偷窃（某物）”。makewayfor“给让路”。makefor意为“朝走去、有利于”。makeout意为“辨认出、了解”14C。under/with/byonesname意为“用的名字”。15B。intheabsenceof意为“在没有的情况下”。【完形填空】36B。与37小题构成对应关系，相对于“客人”的“主人”应用host；master作“主人”讲时，强调具有“控制别人的能力”。37D。38D。thinkof“想到某事”。knowof知道某事的有关情况；remember“记起”是及物动词，其后不须接of，故不选。39A。联系上文，主人拿起热水瓶，故离开的时候是
36、把热水瓶放在桌上，而不是“茶杯”或“盖子”或“茶”。40B。主人离开后，客人“仍然”坐在那里。enjoy表“喜欢做某事”，imagine“想象”，hate“憎恶”都与题意不符。41C。父亲正要端杯子喝茶，这时候传来“破裂声”，有东西打破了，crash即“爆裂声”，“撞击声”，noise指嗓音；此句并不是指某人来了，故不能选A或B42D。lookoveronesshoulder指“某人转头看”。43A。女孩转头看，盯着破裂的热水瓶，watch指下意识的观察，不合题意。44C。从后句中可以看出，他们并没有碰开水瓶，而开水瓶破了，故是“奇怪的事”。45B。破的是热水瓶，因此应该是“冒蒸气的地板”。4
37、6A。父亲解释是因为自己“碰了”热水瓶所以它破了。因此用touch。47C。reflection指镜子中或静水中的“映像”，从前文中我们可以知道女孩在窗前看花，因而是从玻璃中看到了她父亲的“映像”，而不是“影子”。48B。坐着不动用still。49C。父亲和女儿对这一事件发生原因的不同看法，父亲从成人的观点出发，觉得自己承担责任更好，女儿认为不应说谎，父亲觉得女儿天真，所以“笑着说”即laughed。50D。51A。do与will连用常表“合适的”“有用的”“行”。52C。指“可以接受的”。53A。父亲向女儿解释原因。54D。女儿“陷入了沉默”belostinsilence。55B。“只能这样
38、解释吗？”【阅读理解】A篇文章主要介绍了一个四岁的小女孩以自己的画震惊了纽约艺术界。36C。在写这篇文章时玛勒奥姆斯戴德已经是四岁了，而她是在两岁前不久开始作画的。37A。由文章可知，玛勒奥姆斯戴德的画是她自己的杰作，并没有人指导。38D。由第五段的“Herpaintingshavebrightcolors.Theyreveryexpressiveinthewaythepaintisapplied.”可知，她所画的画用的是比较鲜明的颜色，因此使人看起来很兴奋。39A。由文章第三段的最后一句话可知，她父亲让她画画是为了不让她打扰他画画，但这却无疑培养了她对画画的兴趣。40D。从第四段可知。41B
39、。细节题。从倒数第三段后半部分可知。42C。从第四段推断出。43B。【对话填空】44.on 45.size 46.serve 47.elected 48.official49.spoken 50.mining 51.like 52.introduce 53.her【书面表达】Onepossibleversion:DearDr.Helper,IamaSenior3student.IamnowingreatneedofyourhelpbecauseIcanhardlystandthegreatpressure.Every day I have to stay at school for nine
