16、country1After that,every time I walked past her,I could smell her perfume.(完形填空第四段第一句)这之后,每次我经过她身边,我都能闻到她的芳香(1)Every time I met her,she always smiles at me.每次我遇到她,她总是对我微笑。(2)Every time he bought a lot of food for his son.每次他给儿子买很多食品。2Even though many young people cannot afford to pay the expense of

18、 value.这幅地图很有价值。(2)I value our friendship very much.我非常重视我们的友谊。答案.1.A 因为上句谈到 Sonya 对我和朋友们衣着有着巨大的影响,可以帮我们检查一下看穿着是否妥当。2B cruel words 当然是 destroy (毁坏)自信心了。3D fashion 时尚衣着,上文谈到有关衣着的问题,既然作者的衣着不合适,Sonya应该做作者“穿衣 ”的顾问。4C 从下句评论可以看出,作者对她衣着的评论确实是“无害的”。5B match 表示人的长相、衣服的颜色、式样等匹配;fit 只能用于衣着“尺寸”合适。6A as if 似乎,眼睛
19、似乎冒出火来,as if 引导状语从句。7D brand 品牌。根据此处的语境可知。8A 从下句“kept walking on by”可知是“控制住”自己的情绪。9A 下文提到作者引起她注意采取迂回方式当然是 techniques 技巧。10D 这里指到现在仍然记忆在脑海中的一次,说明此事的特殊性。 D.“特别地,尤其”。A.“至少” ;B.“ 实际上” ; C.“永远”。11B 吃了葱头制品当然说话有“气味”了。12C 根据两句之间的关系可知应用表转折的 but。13C 能够听到心跳的时刻是安静的时刻。14A 鼻腔充满那种香味,作者又嗅到那种香味,让作者再一次想到 Sonya。15B 作者
20、现在不记得当时还有其他的感觉。16C 由最后一段第一行可看出作者想和解又有点难为情,心脏剧烈地跳动,心情很紧张,导致手和声音无意识地颤抖。17A gather my courage 聚集起勇气。18B Sonya 也如作者一样,既想和解,又害怕说出和解的话语。19D mine 在此处指代“ 我的声音 ”。20D 这篇文章讲述两个人的关系由“好” 到“不好”再到“好”的过程,最后说明是“关系”。.1.D 由第一段倒数第二句“However,classrooms are still crowded with students.”可知。2A 由第一段第三句话“.most families begin to save for their childrens education when their children are babies.”可知。3D 由第二段第一句话“Students from other countries have money problems to solve, too.”可知。 4A 由第二段可概括出大意,说明他们各自用不同的方式解决钱的问题。
