【分析】
文章讲述的是汤姆厌倦了住在乡下的老房子里,想把它卖掉,再买一幢更好的。他找了个中介帮自己卖房子,结果在杂志上看到自己房子的照片,突然意识到那正是他想住一辈子的房子。方框中所给的5个单词,有3个形容词:attractive吸引人的;有魅力的;引人注目的;successful成功的;exciting令人兴奋的;使人激动的。有1个名词:description描述;描写。decided既是动词decide(决定)的一般过去式,又是过去分词。
12.句意:他试着卖了很长时间,但没有成功。
分析句子结构可知, but it was not+形容词作表语。备选的形容词有3个:attractive、successful、exciting。再根据but是转折连词,意为但是。but it was not successful(但没有成功)符合语境,故填successful。
13.句意:经纪人很快为他的房子做了广告,几天后,汤姆在一本昂贵的杂志上看到了一张他的房子的非常吸引人的照片。
关键词photograph是名词,意为照片,需要用形容词来修饰。attractive形容词,吸引人的,a very attractive photograph(一张非常吸引人的照片)符合语境,故填attractive。
14.句意:上面有对花园的精彩描述。
分析句子结构可知,a wonderful +名词的单数形式。description名词,描述;描写。a wonderful description(精彩的描述)符合语境,故填description。
15.句意:对不起,琼斯先生,我已经决定不卖房子了。
分析句子结构可知,I’ve=I have后面接动词的过去分词构成现在完成时。decided既是动词decide的过去分词,I’ve decided…(我已经决定……)符合语境,故填decided。
【点睛】
做这种题的关键是把方框里单词的词性一定要区分清楚。如3小题,a wonderful +名词的单数形式。方框中的名词只有description,故填description。再如5小题,I’ve后接动词的过去分词,构成现在完成时,方框中的过去分词只有decided,故填decided。

16.句意:一些警察站在十字路口。
句中的关键词at是介词,后面接名词、代词或动名词形式。crossing是名词,at crossing意为在十字路口,符合语境,故填crossing。
17.句意:他们确保汽车不会开得太快。
分析句子结构可知,句子缺少谓语,需要动词来充当。make sure是动词短语,符合语境,故填make sure。
18.句意:没有警察,我们的街道就不安全。
分析句子结构可知,主谓宾都很完整,空格后的单词the police又是名词,故填介词without,without the police意为没有警察,符合语境,故填without。
19.句意:迷路的人可能永远也找不到。
the lost people意为迷路的人,根据句意,如果没用警察,这些迷路的人可能永远也不会被找到。never是副词,意为从不;绝不。符合语境,故填never。

根据in the world,可知此处应用形容词的最高级修饰mountains,作定语,因此用tallest,最高的,形容词的比较级,故选F。
21.句意:但是人都在雪里走路没有穿鞋子。
分析句子,walk是不及物动词,后缺少状语,后接名词shoes,一起作状语,此处用without,没有,介词,作状语,故选A。

24.句意:图片清晰地显示雪人用两条腿走路。
分析句子,可知showed后接宾语从句,且从句成分完整,宾语从句的连接词用that,故选D。
25.句意:有一天我们可能会弄明白什么弄出了那么大的脚印。分析句子可知,这是一个主从复合句,主句缺少谓语动词,因此用find out,弄明白,动词,故选C。
【点睛】

【分析】
本文是一篇记叙文,“我”的弟弟认为最可怕的事就是起床,但是“我”一点也不介意起床。因此每天早晨妈妈都要叫很多次,最后没办法,还要上楼把他拉起来。
26.句意:当我妈妈喊“Herbert,7点了,该起床了!”,他几乎是个病人。
此空是从句主语my mother的谓语,根据下半句“Herbert! It’s seven o’clock! Get up!”可知此空表示“说”,并且谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故选C。
27.句意:我一点也不像我的弟弟。
根据下句I don’t like to go to bed at night but I don’t mind getting up in the morning.我晚上不喜欢上床睡觉,但是我不介意早晨起床。还有上句I think the most terrible thing in life for my little brother is getting up in the morning.我的小弟认为早晨起床是最可怕的事,可知我们两个截然相反,故此空应该是表示“不同;不一样”的词语。故选F。
28.句意:我跳出床上,进洗手间洗漱。
此句and连接两个谓语,因此此空为谓语动词,根据所接的the bathroom可推测,此空意思是“进入”。故选B。
29.句意:快起床!妈妈要上来把你拉出被窝了,如果你不马上起来!
根据下文After calling a few more times my mother has to come…叫了几次之后妈妈上来了可知,如果不起床,妈妈就会上来。故选A。
30.句意:叫了几次以后我的妈妈不得不上楼,把Herbert从床上拉起来。
根据get ready to go downstairs for breakfast下楼吃饭,可知他们的卧室在楼上,妈妈要上楼叫他起床。upstairs表示“楼上”。故选D。

这篇短文给我们讲述了关于“梦”的一些知识。每个人都会做梦,梦是大脑的一种活动。盲人也会做梦,人们会经常做同样的梦。如果经常做噩梦,可以向医生求助。
31.句意:当脑电波非常快的时候,你就会做梦。
空后fast是一个形容词,这里应用副词修饰,故应选E,especially意为“尤其,特别”。
32.句意:其他科学家说如果梦不够强烈,那么就很难记住他们。
空前strong是形容词,这个空是来修饰形容词的,应用副词enough,意为“足够”,修饰形容词时,应放在形容词的后面。
33.句意:另一方面,天生失明的人在梦中看不到图片,但是他们可以在梦中听到、闻到、尝到。
上句话They may see pictures of events that have happened to them before they became blind.提到的是后来失明的人能在梦中看到曾经发生在他们身上的事情的图片。这个空后面说的是天生失明的人的情况,故应选D,on the other hand意为“另一方面”。
34.句意:人们经常一次又一次做同样的梦。
根据句意和空后的again可知,这里考查的是短语over and over again,意为“一次又一次地,反复地”,故应选B。

Dear Sunday Globe,
I’m writing to you about your article in last Sunday’s newspaper, Cell Phones Make Life Easier. You did an excellent job explaining the good points of cell phones. They’re 42.and very helpful in business. On the other hand, you didn’t talk about their bad points at all. Thus, I hope you’ll let me give your readers some advice on cell phone etiquette (礼仪).
The first point I’d like to address is loudness. When talking face to face 43., you wouldn’t shout. In fact, the microphones in cell phones are so sensitive that you can be heard even if you speak44. .
Another point that needs to be made is to deal with personal space. I think it is very impolite to make calls in small spaces or45. rooms. This makes others uncomfortable and forces them to listen to your personal business.
Lastly, let me draw your readers’ attention to the dangers of doing two things at the same time. For example, cell phones and46.are a bad combination(结合). Pay attention to the road!
Besides, cell phones can cause you to neglect good friends. Give friends who are with you your full attention. Turn off your cell phones and enjoy their company!
Sincerely,
Amber Jala

本文通过讲述大象鼻子上的绳子来告诉我们:面对失败,不要放弃,要坚持斗争。当作者在村里看到大象鼻子上系着一根细绳,大象却不会挣脱,他感到惊讶。驯象师告诉他这是因为大象在很小的时候,因为挣脱不了这个绳子,他长大了仍然以为挣脱不了,所以就放弃努力了。这告诉我们,失败是生活中的一部分,应该不要放弃努力。
95.句意:他发现这些巨大的大象只被拴在前腿上的一根小绳子牵着。
根据空后“that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope (绳索) tied to their front leg. 这些巨大的大象只被拴在前腿上的一根小绳子牵着。”可知是发现这样的一个现象,结合所给单词,found符合句意。故选D。

根据空前“at that age, it’s enough to hold them.在那么大时,绳子足以能栓住他们。”可知这儿as意为当……时,结合所给单词,“as they grow up当它们长大时”符合语境。故选E。
98.句意:但因为他们总是呆在原地,他们相信他们做不到(挣脱绳子)。
根据空前“because they always stuck right where they were因为他们总是呆在原地”,可知后面是结果,“they couldn’t它们不能” ,结合所给单词,“他们相信他们不能做到”符合句意。故选A。
99.句意:我们不应该放弃在生活中奋斗。
根据前面“Failing is part of learning. 失败是学习的一部分。”,可知后面是鼓励人们别怕失败,要去奋斗,所以“我们不应该放弃在生活中奋斗。”选用“never”符合语境和句意。故选C。

Dear Sunday Globe,
I’m writing to you about your article in last Sunday’s newspaper, Cell Phones Make Life Easier. You did an excellent job explaining the good points of cell phones. They’re 42.and very helpful in business. On the other hand, you didn’t talk about their bad points at all. Thus, I hope you’ll let me give your readers some advice on cell phone etiquette (礼仪).
The first point I’d like to address is loudness. When talking face to face 43., you wouldn’t shout. In fact, the microphones in cell phones are so sensitive that you can be heard even if you speak44. .
Another point that needs to be made is to deal with personal space. I think it is very impolite to make calls in small spaces or45. rooms. This makes others uncomfortable and forces them to listen to your personal business.
Lastly, let me draw your readers’ attention to the dangers of doing two things at the same time. For example, cell phones and46.are a bad combination(结合). Pay attention to the road!
Besides, cell phones can cause you to neglect good friends. Give friends who are with you your full attention. Turn off your cell phones and enjoy their company!
Sincerely,
Amber Jala
