A．alone，alone B．alone，lonely
C．lonely，alone D．lonely，lonely
【分析】这个老人独自生活，但是他没有感到孤独．
【解答】答案：B．考查副词词义辨析．句意：这个老人独自生活，但是他没有感到孤独"．alone独自地；lonely孤独的．根据题干The old man lives ，but he doesn't feel ．可知live动词，后接副词alone；feel系动词，后接形容词lonely．故选B．
【点评】理解各个选项的含义，根据具体内容作答．
2．That Apple Watch is very beautiful，but it's too expensive．So I can't _____ it．（　　）
A．save B．support C．offer D．afford
【分析】苹果手表很漂亮，但太贵了，所以我买不起．
【解答】答案：D；save保存； 节省；support支持； 支撑；offer提供，给予；afford提供； 买得起； 担负得起；afford 指"提供，供给"，还可以特指经济能力，负担得起；offer 指"提出，提供，呈现，出价"；根据句中信息 it's too expensive，推测下句句意：所以我买不起；
故选：D．
【点评】根据语境，细读选项，认真分析四个动词之间的异同，选择正确的答案．
3．Her grandfather lives a simple life he has much money．（　　）
A．because B．so C．though D．if
【分析】虽然她的爷爷很有钱，但是他过着一种简单的生活．
【解答】答案：C．
根据语境以及上下文，本题考查的是连词的用法．首先明确选项中每个单词或短语的意思，A：因为；B：所以；C：虽然；D：如果；根据语境推测句意是"虽然她的爷爷很有钱，但是他过着一种简单的生活．"，在这里两个句子之间存在一个相反的让步关系，though/although/even though"虽然；尽管"，引导让步状语从句，符合句意．故选C
【点评】本题主要考查连词的用法，连词在句子中主要起联系上下文的作用，他们之间的区别就是表示逻辑关系的不同，所以在解题时先要理解上下文含义，然后根据上下文逻辑关系选择合适的连词．连词的用法都比较多，语义之间还有交叉，熟记其基本应用规则，了解其区别，注意固定搭配对象，是做好此类题型的关键．
4．﹣﹣﹣Some children can't afford dictionaries．
﹣﹣﹣Let's donate our pocket money to them．（　　）
A．buy B．buying C．to buy D．be bought
【分析】﹣﹣一些孩子买不起字典．
﹣﹣让我们把我们的零花钱捐给他们吧．
【解答】答案：C．
根据Some children can't afford dictionaries．可知一些孩子买不起字典．这里考查can't afford to do sth负担不起做某事．故选C．
【点评】本题考查了动词不定式的用法．不定式是中考的必考考点．动词不定式在句子中可以做主语，谓语，宾语，定语，状语，宾语补足语等等，解答时应注意正确使用动词不定式．
5．﹣I hear Mary has got a good job in a world's top company．
﹣Yes，Her good experience helped her a lot．She once studied in one of the best colleges in China．（　　）
A．travel B．education C．life
【分析】﹣﹣我听说玛丽在一家世界顶级公司找到了工作．
﹣﹣是的，她良好的教育经历帮助了许多．她曾经在中国其中的一所最好的大学学习．
【解答】答案：B．travel"旅行"，education"教育"，life"生活，生命"．根据题干中的studied in one of the best colleges"在其中的一所最好的大学学习"可知，本句应该是她的良好的教育经历帮助她很大，应用education．故选B．
【点评】本题考查名词词义辨析，做题时应根据题干中的关键信息并结合选项进行选择．
6．He is busy _____at school，but he never forgets ______ his mom a phone call every day．（　　）
A．working； giving B．work； give
C．working； to give D．work； to give
【分析】他虽然在学校很忙，但是他从来不忘每天要给他妈妈打电话．
【解答】答案：C 本题考查动词的固定搭配．be busy doing"忙于做某事"，forget to do忘记要做某事（事情还未做），forget doing做过某事却忘记了（事情已做过）．应抓住forget to do 和forget doing的区别，照本题的题意，"但他从来不忘记每天要给妈妈打电话"，是没做之前的一种提醒，应用forget to do sth．故本题选C．
【点评】这种英语题要考虑哪种情况在现实生活中更容易发生，而不是只是随着自己的想法走．有时候做题就得大众化一点．
7．She ______for ten years and now she has a lovely daughter．（　　）
A．married B．has been married
C．got married D．has got married
【分析】翻译：她已结婚十年了，并且她现在有一个可爱的女儿．
【解答】答案：B．根据时间状语for ten years判断句子的时态是现在完成时，has been married 中的married是形容词"已婚的"作表语；表示是一个状态，可以和一段时间的状语搭配；has got married 是瞬息性动词，不能和一段时间的状语搭配．
故选：B。
【点评】本题考查现在完成时．现在完成时表示过去发生或已经完成的动作对现在造成的影响或结果；现在完成时可以用来表示发生在过去某一时刻的，持续到现在的动作（用行为动词表示）或状态（be动词表示）常与for（+时间段），since（+时间点或过去时的句子）连用．
二．填空题（共6小题）
8．There　are　 （be） some vegetables on the table．
【分析】桌子上有一些蔬菜．
【解答】答案：are．
根据There…（be） some vegetables on the table可知本句意为桌子上有一些蔬菜，表达客观事实用一般现在时；此句为there be句型，谓语动词采用就近原则，由于后面为复数名词some vegetables，所以此处应用be动词的复数形式are．故填are．
【点评】考查单词填空．准确的翻译句意及分析句子结构、时态、固定搭配等是关键，然后再用合适的形式完成句子．
9．With today's busy lifestyles， many parents want to spend more "quality" time with their children． But what is "quality time"？ It's time spent doing an （51）　activity　 （活动） that is meaningful to the parents and child． It's time when family members （52）　really　 （真正地） get to know each other．
Much of the child's basic learning takes place when the family members are together doing usual things， such as watching movies and talking about （53）　daily　 （日常的） life．
Children need to know they are （54）　loved　 （爱）． The cry of children today is， "Love me for who I am， not what I do． Love me for who I am， （55）　even　 （甚至） when I am naughty．" This does not mean that you （56）　allow　 （允许） the child to do everything． What it does mean is that （57）　although　 （尽管） the child behaves badly， you still love him． By living in a family， children learn to （58）　share　 （分享） ， how to stand up for their （59）　own　 （自己的） rights， and how to love another person．
Children learn about trust（信任） at home from their parents． When parents trust the child to do something by himself or herself， the child learns that he can do it．

52． really．考查副词；根据语境" 现在是家庭成员真正了解彼此的时候了． "后面get to know 是动词词组，需要副词修饰，故答案是really．
