【典型例题】
【2018海淀一模】
It was 1st January, the first day of the year and a holiday for me. I thought of getting the bank work out of the way. The bank person just nodded to my 35 “Happy New Year” when I sat in front of him.
He was busy at that moment. After a few minutes he took my form and started filling in my details. I sat there 36 why we had computerized banking if we were still filling in forms.
After waiting for a few more minutes, in which I showed all 37 of being impatient, I asked him if my work was done. He shouted even without looking at me, “Nothing is done, it will take time!”
Just then I saw his morning cup of tea which had been lying there for ten minutes, untouched. The tea had turned 38 cold while he was doing his work. Suddenly I felt what this man must be feeling when customers 39 me came always in a hurry to get their work done. We did not even 40 the need to thank them for being there. He must be feeling so 41 that “here comes another person who will push me for doing his work first.”
On an instinct(直觉) I told him, “Sir, please have your tea, I am not in a hurry.” He suddenly looked up at me and for the first time we had eye contact. I saw both of us sailing in the same boat. I felt that he was also 42 the small things in life like a cup of hot tea for a few more minutes. He gave me a smile and said, “It is an everyday affair with me; you are not in a hurry but 43 else will come, who will be in a hurry.”
He really touched my heart with his wise 44 . I felt that we had all put shields (盾牌) on our hearts like we put gloves on our hands. All this time I thought of him as a robot, someone who was there for my convenience, 45 today I suddenly felt a strange closeness with him. I promised to be more friendly with people who helped me and be 46 that they were there for me.
35. A. sad B. angry C. polite D. honest
36. A. requiring B. wondering C. expecting D. arguing
37. A. things B. points C. signs D. facts
38. A. almost B. still C. hardly D. only
39. A. from B. with C. for D. like
40. A. accept B. feel C. insist D. meet
41. A. surprised B. terrified C. annoyed D. embarrassed
42. A. facing B. finding C. losing D. missing
43. A. somebody B. anybody C. nobody D. everybody
44. A. ways B. words C. values D. letters
45. A. as B. though C. and D. but
46. A. thankful B. patient C. hopeful D. lucky
【大意分析】主人公在银行办理个人业务时，起初对银行工作人员的服务非常不满，表现得很不耐烦。不
过在看到放在银行工作人员旁边的一杯几乎凉了的早茶后，认识到银行工作人员是在牺牲自己喝早茶的
时间来为自己服务的，因此对银行职员的态度发生了转变，同时领悟到要感谢别人对自己的帮助。
步骤二：瞻前顾后，领悟语境（具体方法技巧）
/技巧一：抓住关键词，排除错误选项
【原文例题1】
The bank person just nodded to my 35 “Happy New Year” when I sat in front of him.
35. A. sad B. angry C. polite D. honest
【考点精析】C. 本题选择形容词来修饰Happy New Year。“新年快乐”是祝福语（关键词），sad(悲伤的)，
angry（生气的），honest(诚实的) 都与祝福语的语境不符，而polite(礼貌的)正好符合语境，故选C。
【原文例题2】
After waiting for a few more minutes, in which I showed all 37 of being impatient, I asked him if my work
was done.
37. A. things B. points C. signs D. facts
【考点精析】C. 本题选择可以被of being impatient修饰的名词。句意为“在等待的那几分钟里，我表现
出了所有不耐烦的________，然后我问他我的业务是否办理好了。”代入发现tings(东西)，points(要点)，
facts(事实)都不符合语境，而“表现出不耐烦的signs(信号，迹象)”恰好符合语境。
【原文例题3】
He gave me a smile and said, “It is an everyday affair with me; you are not in a hurry but 43 else will come,
who will be in a hurry.”
43. A. somebody B. anybody C. nobody D. everybody
【考点精析】A. 本题考查不定代词辨析。关键词but 说明前后句发生转折，既然前句说“也许你不着急”，
那么后句一定表示“其他人可能会很着急”，故nobody(没人)，everybody(每个人)都与语境不符，另外
anybody else也可以表示其他人，但是语法上又不成立（anybody通常用在否定句和疑问句中），故选A。
【举一反三】


/技巧二：利用语法分析解题
【原文例题1】
He was busy at that moment. After a few minutes he took my form and started filling in my details. I sat there
36 why we had computerized banking if we were still filling in forms.
36. A. requiring B. wondering C. expecting D. arguing
【考点精析】B. 本题考查常见动词搭配形式。选项中四个动词意思分别是require“要求，命令”；wonder
“纳闷，困惑，想要知道”；expect“期望，预料”；argue“争论，坚决主张”，通常和why搭配的是wonder，
即“纳闷为什么还要电脑化银行（既然我们要人工填写表格）”，符合语境和语意，故选B。
【原文例题2】
Suddenly I felt what this man must be feeling when customers 39 me came always in a hurry to get their
work done.
39. A. from B. with C. for D. like
【考点精析】D. 本题考查介词用法辨析。在该句中customers和me之间的关系要么是并列关系，即顾客
和我；要么是包含关系，即像我这样的顾客，故A和C语法上不成立，另外虽然with可以表示“和”，
但是需要在customers后加上逗号，故with在语法上也不成立。所以正确答案为D。
【原文例题3】
All this time I thought of him as a robot, someone who was there for my convenience, 45 today I suddenly felt a
strange closeness with him.
45. A. as B. though C. and D. but
【考点精析】D. 本题考查连词用法辨析。通过分析前后两个句子会发现两者具有转折关系，即“之前和
现在想法上的转变”，选项中四个连词只有D项可以表示转折关系。





/技巧三：利用词语固定搭配和习惯用法解题
【原文例题】
The tea had turned 38 cold while he was doing his work.
38. A. almost B. still C. hardly D. only
【考点精析】A. 本题考查副词词义辨析。句意为“在银行工作人员工作过程中，早茶______变凉了。
almost(几乎)，still(仍然，依然)，hardly(几乎不)，only(仅仅)，根据习惯用法，可以判定almost符合句意
及常识，即“茶几乎变凉了”，故选A。





/技巧四：根据上下文语境，确定选项
【原文例题1】
We did not even 40 the need to thank them for being there. He must be feeling so 41 that “here comes
another person who will push me for doing his work first.”
40. A. accept B. feel C. insist D. meet
41. A. surprised B. terrified C. annoyed D. embarrassed
【考点精析】B. C. 这两题考查语境分析能力。句意为：我们甚至都没有________需要感谢那些在那里为
我们服务的银行工作人员。他一定会________地想：“又来了一个催我快点帮他办事的家伙。”根据上文
语境“像我这样的顾客总是催促银行职员快点办理业务”，可知“我们甚至从来没有feel(察觉到)需要去
感谢他们”，故第40题中feel更符合语境。而accept(接受)，insist(坚持，强调)，meet(遇见)都不符合语
境。第41题语境更加清晰，上文提到I asked him if my work was done. He shouted even without looking at
me, “Nothing is done, it will take time!”从shouted判断出银行职员一定是非常生气的。故41题中annoyed(愤
怒的)正确，而surprised(惊讶的)，terrified(感到恐惧的)，embarrassed(尴尬的)与语境不符。
【原文例题2】
I felt that he was also 42 the small things in life like a cup of hot tea for a few more minutes.
42. A. facing B. finding C. losing D. missing
【考点精析】D. 本题考查语境分析能力及动词词义辨析。句意为：我觉得他也________了生活中像早茶
一样的小事情。根据上文语境“早茶放了10分钟，几乎都变凉了”可知银行工作人员业务繁忙，错过了
喝早茶的时间，故face(面对)，find(找到)不符合语境，另外lose(丢失)多指原本拥有的东西没了，而原文
指原本可以拥有的草茶时间由于客户的催促而没能拥有，故miss(错过)最为贴切。
【原文例题3】
He gave me a smile and said, “It is an everyday affair with me; you are not in a hurry but 43 else will come,
who will be in a hurry.” He really touched my heart with his wise 44 .
44. A. ways B. words C. values D. letters
【考点精析】B. 本题考查语境分析能力。最后一句话句意为：银行工作人员用他睿智的________触动了
我的内心。上文银行工作人员只说了两句话，It is an everyday affair with me; you are not in a hurry but 43
else will come, who will be in a hurry.没有letters(信)，也没有体现values(价值观)，所以先排除C和D，而
ways(方式)范围太大，文中除了两人对话外没有其他方式触动作者内心，故words(话语)更具体、更贴切。
【原文例题4】
I promised to be more friendly with people who helped me and be 46 that they were there for me.
46. A. thankful B. patient C. hopeful D. lucky
【考点精析】A. 本题考查语境分析能力。最后一句是对整篇文章的升华，句意为：我承诺要更加友好地
对待帮助我的人，并且________他在那里为我工作。很明显hopeful(充满希望的)，和lucky(幸运的)都不
符合语境，thankful(感激的)和patient(耐心的)似乎都可以入选，这时我们要对文章主旨进行判断：到底是
作者要强调的是感激我们身边默默工作来方便我们的人？还是要我们以后办业务的时候更要有耐心呢？
回顾文章不难看出作者对应该感谢银行职员赋予的笔墨更多一些，如the need to thank them for being there，
故答案为A。






步骤三：复读全文，全面验证

He gave me a smile and said, “It is an everyday affair with me; you are not in a hurry but somebody else will come, who will be in a hurry.”
He really touched my heart with his wise words. I felt that we had all put shields (盾牌) on our hearts like we put gloves on our hands.

Several weeks ago, our headmaster, Mr. Gaudi, told us that our school had been chosen to compete on Smart Aleck—a game show which my best friend Carla and I both love. Carla has a good imagination, and I know a lot of history, so we thought we’d be good __35__ for the team.
A few days later, Mr. Gaudi held a meeting with everyone interested in the__36__. He told us that Smart Aleck uses a five member team.

I had been a high school teacher for six years and had watched a lot of TV shows about solving cases (破案). I was about to begin my dream 35 , something I had wanted for a long, long time.
On the first Monday of the Firearm Officer Safety Training we were given guns and by Wednesday we were given our first test. We would score one mark for a hit to the 36 on the target, and half a mark for anywhere else on the body. When it was my turn, I entered the house 37 . It was dark and I could hardly see a single thing. Suddenly, one of the targets jumped out at me. I 38 my gun out quickly and fired two shots (射击). He fell to the ground. Another target appeared from behind and I 39 to get a successful shot. Just at the moment, I noticed something in the corner. I fired four shots and then the test ended. I came out of the house, feeling 40 that I was finally going to pass the test.
When one of the officers followed me out, I couldn’t wait to ask, “Did I pass, sir?” “No,” he said angrily. “What? Why?” I wondered. He then 41 at his shirt and shouted, “See this? 42 shots! Luckily they were paintballs. I didn’t wear any protective gear (装备) because I was just in the corner to 43 you.”
I said sorry to the officer and told him that I was not terrible at other police trainings and I always scored a high mark when we 44 telling someone that their family member had died. “That’s good,” he said. “Because when you accidentally 45 someone with the way you did, you will be able to tell the family very nicely how they died.” In the end, after nine months of what is usually a six-month course, I realized that people around me would be a lot better off if I 46 to teaching.
I am now the Head of Department for English at a high school. The words of the Rolling Stones spring to mind: You can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find you get what you need.

When I was in the sixth grade, one day my teacher asked our class to think about the question “What does ‘doing the right thing’ mean to you?” over the weekend. We could talk to our parents or anyone else we thought might have a good answer. 35 Monday, we were to hand in an essay（论文） on it, and be prepared to live up to our 36 .
The entire weekend, I was trying to 37 something that would impress my teacher and be easy to live by. I talked to my parents, called my grandmother and asked my neighbor. Everyone had good answers, but I didn’t feel like I could live up to them.
On Sunday afternoon, my parents said they were going to my Aunt Cindy’s house. That usually 38 that I would have to entertain my four-year-old cousin Andrea 39 my parents visited. I found a Disney movie for Andrea, and then I sat down and started to write my essay. It was due（到期的）the next morning and this was my last 40 .
Soon I felt a pair of eyes on me. It was Andrea. “What are you doing?” Andrea asked. “I have to write an essay about what ‘doing the right thing’ means to me.” I answered. Andrea laughed. Could this smart four-year-old 41 know the answer? “That’s easy,” she said. “Doing the right thing means being nice to your family and friends. Never lie. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Take a bath when you’re 42 . And never put rocks in your mouth.”
I stared with great 43 at my little cousin. Then I jumped up and gave her the biggest hug. Not only had Andrea answered a very tough question for me, but I could easily live by 44 of her answers. All I had to do was to be nice, not to lie, to keep myself clean and healthy, and never put rocks in my mouth. So when I wrote my essay, I 45 the story about Andrea and how she had answered my question.
Two weeks later, my teacher returned everyone’s essays. I 46 an A+ along with a little note my teacher had written at the top: “Always do the right thing and give Andrea an A+, too!”
