.Last night was our official first frost, right about at our new average. I was wholly 1 —I forgot to check, and had 2 to harvest the last batch of carrots. Ah well. Green tomato pickles are definitely the order of the day!
We’ll be eating out of our garden for a long time yet—with 3 extension, probably until late December or January, but 4 is a marker of change, and it seems as good a time as any to evaluate this year’s garden.
In general, it was a banner year for anything that ordinarily finds our 5 too cool and wet. Tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, okra, etc. . . 6 this year. I got more red peppers 7 I’ve ever had, and if it weren’t for Eli 8 large chunks of his days grazing the tomatoes, we would have had the best 9 ever.
It was a tough year for the stuff that ordinarily does well for me—the 10 was eaten by goats when one of these kids 11 the garden gate open, the peas did OK but got a little tough in the heat. Fava beans fried, mustard greens bolted and for the first time ever, I found I couldn’t successfully 12 lettuce through the whole summer. I realize that’s normal for everyone else, 13 not here.
The biggest 14 , besides the goat-chomped broccoli, was the fall garden. We had an extended period of heat and 15 weather, and it just didn’t germinate as 16 as usual. The other one was that I 17 this year to start an 18 business in wetland plants—on the hottest, driest year I’ve ever seen. They did OK, but it is just a good reminder never to get proud and assume you 19 how your world works.
OK, reports from the field, folks—how did your 20 do?

When I first entered university,my aunt,who is an English professor,gave me a new English dictionary.I was __1__ to see that it was an English dictionary,also known as a monolingual dictionary.__2__ it was a dictionary intended for non-native learners,none of my classmates had one __3__,to be honest,I found it extremely __4__ to use at first.I would look up words in the dictionary and __5__ not fully understand the meaning.I was used to the __6__ bilingual dictionaries,in which the words are __7__ both in English and Chinese.I really wondered why my aunt __8__ to make things so difficult for me.Now,after studying English at university for three years,I __9__ that monolingual dictionaries are __10__ in learning a foreign language.
As I found out,there is __11__ often no perfect equivalence (对应) between two __12__ in two languages.My aunt even goes so far as to __13__ that a Chinese “equivalent” can never give you the __14__ meaning of a word in English! __15__,she insisted that I read the definition(定义) of a word in a monolingual dictionary __16__ I wanted to get a better understanding of its meaning.__17__,I have come to see what she meant.
Using a monolingual dictionary for learners has helped me in another important way.This dictionary uses a(n) __18__ number of words,around 2,000,in its definitions.When I read these definitions,I am __19__ exposed to(接触) the basic words and learn how they are used to explain objects and ideas.__20__ this,I can express myself more easily in English.
【语篇解读】 这是一篇记叙文,作者主要描写自己从最初接触英汉词典的惊异,到习惯使用英汉词典以及使用英汉语词典的好处。
1.A.worried B.sad C.surprised D.nervous
答案 C [通读全文可知,作者是一个中国大学生,中国人学英语,尤其是初学者习惯使用英汉词典。当作者看到英英词典的时候,他感到“吃惊”。]
2.A.Because B.Although C.Unless D.If
答案 B [前后两句在意义上是让步关系,所以用although引导让步状语从句。而A项because引导原因状语从句,unless和if引导条件状语从句。]
3.A.but B.so C.or D.and
答案 A [此空格处是一个并列连词,连接前后两句。而前后两句之间存在的是转折关系,所以用but。]
4.A.difficult B.interesting C.ambiguous D.practical
答案 A [最初用英英词典,不习惯,所以作者感觉用起来很难。interesting是“有趣味的意思”,根据下文not fully understand the meaning排除;ambiguous“不明确的”;practical“实用的”。]
5.A.thus B.even C.still D.again
答案 C [句子中有否定词not,有副词fully,所以用still,表示“仍然不能够完全明白”的意思。]
6.A.new B.familiar C.earlier D.ordinary
答案 B [be used to表示“习惯……”,对作者来说习惯了双语词典,或者说是英汉词典。这里指双语词典的使用对他来说是熟悉。]
7.A.explained B.expressed C.described D.created
答案 A [此句是一个in which引导的定语从句,其中words是主语,根据常识在词典中单词的意思是被“用两种语言解释出来”的,所以用explained。]
8.A.offered B.agreed C.decided D.happened
答案 C [“我”真想知道“我”姑妈为什么决定这么为难“我”。其他三个词虽然都跟动词不定式,但是在这里意思都不恰当。]
9.A.imagine B.recommend C.predict D.understand
答案 D [过去不理解,经过一段时间后,明白了。]
10.A.natural B.better C.easier D.convenient
答案 B [此句中monolingual dictionaries和bilingual dictionaries比较,A和D项没用比较级,better强调更好,更实用,而不是easier。]
11.A.at best B.in fact C.at times D.in case
答案 B [常见的情况是实际上两种语言之间的两个词没有完全的对应。in fact表示“实际上,事实上”。at best“至多;充其量”;at times“有时”;in case“万一,以防”。]
12.A.words B.names C.ideas D.characters
答案 A [词典上重点的内容应该是单词。]
13.A.hope B.declare C.doubt D.tell
答案 B [“我”姑妈甚至还声称汉语意思决不能给出一个英语单词的确切意思。]
14.A.exact B.basic C.translated D.expected
答案 A [前面的a Chinese equivalent和the meaning of a word in English对应,所表明还是对应不准确的问题,所以用exact。]
15.A.Rather B.However C.Therefore D.Instead
答案 C [此空后面的句子和前面表示的是一种“因果”关系,所以用therefore。]
16.A.when B.before C.until D.while
答案 A [表示“当……时候”,用when引导时间状语从句。before“在……之前”;until“直到……时候”;while“在……的同时”。]
17.A.Largely B.Generally C.Gradually D.Probably
答案 C [该句的谓语have come to see是表示“变化过程”,所以用gradually表示“渐渐地”。]
18.A.extra B.average C.total D.limited
答案 D [从后面的around 2,000可知词典中用于解释词义的词是限制在
2 000左右。]
19.A.repeatedly B.nearly
C.immediately D.anxiously
答案 A [在有限的范围内,查阅阅读释义的话,就会反复接触基本词汇、学会这些词汇怎样用来解释事物和观点,所以用repeatedly表示“反复地,经常地”。]
20.A.According to B.In relation to
C.In addition to D.Because of
答案 D [后面主句部分I can express myself more easily in English.表达的是结果,此处表达的应该是原因,说明使用这种词典所带来的好处。]
