三、阅读理解。
What surprises us most It is that there are still couples who keep doing things to show each other love. A Japanese farmer is famous for his act of love. He has spent nearly two years planting flowers for his blind wife.
Mr. and Mrs. Kuroki live in a large flower garden. The garden has turned into a tourist attraction (旅游胜地) recently. Around 7,000 visitors come here each year, not only for the beautiful scenery (景色), but also for the special story behind the two old farmers.
In 1956, the newly married couple first moved into the house. The house would be their home for the rest of their lives. They had two children and lived happily for years. However, as years passed, Mrs. Kuroki’s health began to decline. Her vision (视力) problems were so serious that she became blind in the end. She hid herself in her home for a long time, refusing to leave unless it was necessary.
Mr. Kuroki got an idea. He wanted to give her gifts—flowers. So he got to work on his big surprise. Mr. Kuroki took advantage of the hills around their house and he began to plant a kind of flower with strong fragrance (芳香). He wanted to see if the fragrance would make her come outside. When he realized that his idea was going to work, he worked for nearly two years to completely cover his garden with the flowers.
Now Mrs. Kuroki goes out every day with her husband to enjoy the fragrance of the flowers and the fresh air of a new day.

参考答案与解析
一、单项选择。
1. B
【解析】具体的某天用介词on。
2. D
【解析】句意:我们能够在这一学期做得很好。考查情态动词。can和be able to都可以表示“能、会”,两者不能重复使用,所以排除A、C选项;can侧重能做某事,只能用于一般现在时和一般过去时;be able to则强调通过努力终于做成了某事,可用于多种时态;be able to do sth.“有能力做某事”,主语是we,be动词用are,排除B选项;故答案选D。
3. B
【解析】句意:—你会讲日语吗?—不会。A. mustn’t不必; B. can’t不会,表示推测时“不可能”;C. needn’t不必; D. may not也许不。因为第一个问句can表示“能,会”,所以答语还是用can来回答,这里有No,所以用否定回答。故选B。
4. D
【解析】句意:—爸爸,我再给你拿一块蛋糕好吗?—谢谢,不必了,我已经饱了。A. may not也许不; B. must not 不可以,禁止; C. can’t不会;表推测时“不可能”; D. needn’t不必。根据I’ve had enough可知,已经饱了,没有必要再要蛋糕了。故选D。
5. A

【解析】句意:我不时地看我的手表,以确保没有迟到。考查介词短语。A. from time to time不时、有时;B. in time及时;C. at the same time同时;D. on time准时、按时。根据句意“我不时地看我的手表,以确保没有迟到。”结合选项可知A选项符合题意,故答案选A。
7. A
【解析】句意:他有困难,但与你相比微不足道。考查介词。A. to到;B. in在……里面;C. of……的;D. on在……上面。根据but they are nothing compared ___ yours.可知考查固定短语compared to“与……相比”,其它介词不能和compare搭配,故答案选A。
8. C
【解析】句意:在晴朗的日子是购物的最佳时机。考查动词不定式。根据It’s the best time ___ on sunny day.可知,这里考查句型It’s the best time to do sth.“它是做某事的最佳时间”,这里的it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式;go shopping固定词组,意思是“购物”;结合选项可知C选项符合题意,故答案选C。
9. A

9. D句意:阳光可以使人四处奔跑,雨可以使人安静。这里两个句子由and连接,所以and前后是对应的,and后面的动词是make, 所以and前也用动词make,故选D。
10. C句意:你更喜欢哪一个呢?这里是晴天和雨天两个进行比较,所以是比较级,“更喜欢”like better,故选C。
