1.Three
Feet
From
Gold
???
Darby's
uncle
was
caught
by
the
"gold
fever"
in
the
gold-rush
days,
and
went
west
to
dig
and
grow
rich.
After
months
of
labor,
he
was
rewarded
by
the
discovery
of
the
shining
ore
(矿石).
He
needed
machinery
to
bring
the
ore
to
the
surface.
So,
with
the
"strike",
he
returned
home.
And
with
the
help
of
Darby,
he
borrowed
a
lot
of
money.
After
buying
the
machinery
and
having
it
shipped,
Uncle
and
Darby
went
back
to
dig
the
mine.
???
The
first
car
of
ore
was
mined.
And
the
returns
proved
they
had
one
of
the
richest
mines
in
Colorado!
Down
went
the
drills!
Up
went
the
hopes
of
Uncle
and
Darby!
???
Then
something
happened!
The
vein
(矿脉)of
gold
ore
disappeared!
They
drilled
on,
but
all
in
vain.
Finally,
they
decided
to
quit
and
sold
the
machinery
to
a
junkman
for
a
few
hundred
dollars.
The
junkman
called
in
a
mining
engineer
to
look
at
the
mine
and
do
a
little
calculation.
The
engineer's
calculation
showed
that
the
vein
would
be
found
just
three
feet
from
where
the
Darbys
had
stopped
drilling!
The
junkman
took
millions
of
dollars
in
the
vein,
because
he
knew
enough
to
seek
experts'
advice
before
giving
up.
???
Most
of
the
money
which
went
into
the
machinery
was
borrowed
through
the
efforts
of
Darby,
who
was
then
a
very
young
man.
The
money
came
from
his
relatives
because
of
their
faith
in
him.
He
paid
back
every
dollar
of
it,
although
it
took
years
to
do
so.
???
Long
afterwards,
Mr.
Darby
made
another
discovery
in
which
desire
can
be
changed
into
gold.
This
discovery
came
after
he
went
into
the
business
of
selling
life
insurance.
Remembering
that
he
lost
a
huge
fortune,
for
he
stopped
three
feet
from
gold,
Darby
profited
by
the
experience
in
his
chosen
work,
saying
to
himself,
"I
stopped
three
feet
from
gold,
but
I
will
never
stop
because
men
say
'no'
when
I
ask
them
to
buy
insurance."
???
Darby
sold
more
than
a
million
dollars
in
life
insurance
annually.
He
owes
his
"stick-ability"
to
the
lesson
he
learned
from
his
"quit-ability"
in
the
gold
mining
business.

uncle

home

his
reward

an
engineer

know
Darby
_______.

unable
to
pay
off
the
debts
B.mined
his
gold
from
the
failure
C.learned
a
lesson
from

insurance
D.devoted
himself
to

D.we
won't
reach
our
goal
unless
we
insist
2.???
I
was
deeply
moved
by
the
kindness
of
an
elderly
flower
seller
at
Sydney's
Central
Station
one
evening.
???
I
was
feeling
as
cold
as
the
winter
winds
quickening
the
steps
of
the
people
who
buried
chins
(下巴)in
scarves
and
hands
deep
into
coat
pockets.
In
many
ways,
2018
had
proven
an
arduous
year.
My
teenage
daughter
had
left
home
for
university,
my
job
of
23
years
was
no
more,
and
a
creative
project
I'd
given
my
all
to
for
years
had
also
been
suddenly
called
off.
I
also
found
out
a
person
I
considered
as
a
friend
was
far
from
it.
???
A
year
earlier,
I'd
dreamt
about
an
earthquake.
In
the
dream,
a
red
light
flashed
inside
a
building
and
then
the
earth
began
to
rock.
Walls
fell
down
on
me
as
I
ran
to
the
open,
feeling
sorry
for
the
people
I
hadn't
loved
enough.
Before
I
was
buried
completely
by
the
falling
world,
I
shouted,
"Abuelo,
ayudame!"
in
my
native
Spanish.
"Grandfather,
help
me!"
???
Now,
with
the
very
real
aftershocks
of
a
series
of
unexpected
endings,
I
walked
into
a
little
flower
shop
to
buy
a
gift
for
a
friend.
The
gentleman
at
the
shop
looked
at
me
and
turned
away
for
a
moment,
returning
with
a
fragrant
flower.
"For
you.
You
need
to
smile
today,"
he
said
in
a
rich
and
beautiful
accent,
offering
me
the
flower
with
eyes
full
of
care.
It
took
all
my
strength
not
to
cry.
Then
he
gave
me
a
grandfatherly
hug
that
made
me
want
to
tell
him
everything.
???
Instead,
I
thanked
him
and
headed
for
the
train.
How
did
he
know?
I
wondered.
For
the
first
time
in
weeks,
I
felt
hope
(1).The
underlined
word
in
the
second
paragraph
means
"______".
A.puzzled
B.mixed
C.hard
D.meaningful
(2).What
is
the
third
paragraph
mainly
about?
A.A
detailed
description
of
the
author's
dream.
B.The
help
that
the
author
got
from
her
grandfather.
C.An
earthquake
that
the
author
came
across
before.
D.The
author's
sorry
thoughts
for
the
people
she
hadn't
loved
enough.
(3).Why
did
the
author
feel
hope
in
the
end?
A.Because
the
gentleman
showed
his
concern
for
the
author.
B.Because
the
gentleman
gave
the
author
a
grandfatherly
hug.
C.Because
the
gentleman
at
the
shop
sent
her
a
fragrant
flower.
D.Because
the
gentleman
said
some
words
in
a
rich
and
beautiful
accent.
(4).What
drove
the
author
to
walk
into
the
flower
shop?
A.A
series
of
unexpected
things.
B.The
fragrant
flowers
in
the
shop.
C.The
gentleman
in
the
flower
shop.
D.The
idea
of
sending
a
gift
to
a
friend.
3.???
Over
the
past
few
years
I've
had
an
uncomfortable
sense
that
someone,
or
something,
has
been
making
changes
to
my
brain.
I'm
not
thinking
the
way
I
used
to
think.
I
can
feel
it
most
strongly
when
I'm
reading.
Involving
myself
in
a
book
or
a
lengthy(冗长的)article
used
to
be
easy.
That's
rarely
the
case
anymore.
???
I
think
I
know
what's
going
on.
For
over
a
decade,
I've
been
spending
lots
of
time
online.
The
Web
has
been
a
godsend
to
me
as
a
writer.
Research
that
once
required
days
in
the
rooms
of
libraries
can
now
be
done
in
minutes
by
a
few
Google
searches.
Even
when
I'm
not
working,
I'm
scanning
headlines
or
just
tripping
from
link
to
link.
???
The
Net
is
becoming
a
universal
medium
where
information
flows
through
my
eyes
and
ears
and
into
mind.
The
perfect
recall
of
silicon
memory
(硅制存储器)can
be
a
blessing
to
thinking.
But
that
comes
at
a
price.
As
the
media
theorist
Marshall
Mcluhan
pointed
out,
media
are
not
just
passive
channels
of
information.
They
supply
the
staff
of
thought,
but
they
also
shape
the
process
of
thought.
And
what
the
Net
seems
to
be
doing
is
weakening
my
ability
for
concentration.
Once
I
was
a
driver
in
the
sea
of
words.
Now
I
zip
along
the
surface
like
a
flying
swallow.
???
I'm
not
the
only
one.
When
I
mention
my
troubles
with
reading
to
acquaintances,
Bruce
Friedman,
a
blogger,
also
has
described
how
the
Internet
has
changed
his
mental
habits.
His
thinking
has
taken
on
a
"staccato
(不连贯的)"
quality.
"I
can't
read
War
and
Peace
anymore,"
he
admitted.
"I've
lost
the
ability
to
do
that."
???
A
recently
published
study
suggests
that
when
reading
online,
we
tend
to
become
"more
decoders
(解码器)of
information.
We
are
not
only
what
we
read;
we
are
how
we
read.
(1).According
to
the
passage,
the
author
thinks
_______.
A.the
Net
is
merely
a
headache
B.he
can
no
longer
die
but
swim
shallowly
C.the
deep
reading
in
the
past
has
become
a
struggle
D.other
people
around
rarely
have
similar
feelings
like
him
(2).What
is
the
author's
attitude
towards
the
Internet?
A.Thoroughly
passive.
B.Totally
puzzled.
C.Gladly
approving.
D.Evidently
worried.
(3).From
the
passage,
the
more
people
use
the
Web,_______
.
A.the
more
mental
habits
can
be
improved
B.the
more
they
have
to
fight
to
stay
focused
C.the
more
they
are
influenced
in
shape
D.the
more
online
activities
they
can
enjoy
(4).Which
of
the
following
can
best
summarize
the
text?
A.Is
the
Net
gradually
changing
us?
B.Long
articles
are
hard
to
read
nowadays.
C.Do
people
lack
concentration
to
cover
Web
pages?
D.More
Web
involvement
results
from
attention
distraction(分心).
4.???
The
number
of
people
in
my
house
has
grown
from
six
to
seven
recently.
A
young
man
from
Spain
has
come
to
spend
six
weeks
with
us.
He
is
not
an
ordinary
young
man;
he's
actually
my
second
cousin,
and
is
here
to
spend
time
with
this
side
of
the
family,
and
of
course,
to
learn
English.
???
Thankfully,
he
is
the
same
age
as
my
youngest
son,
and
is
very
fun-loving.
I'm
sure
that
he
will
pick
up
a
lot
of
English
while
he
plays
with
my
kids.
That
was
actually
how
I
picked
up
a
lot
of
Spanish
when
I
was
a
child.
My
mother
would
take
me
to
Mallorca
in
Spain,
to
spend
about
a
month
in
the
summers.
Because
children
play
so
much,
and
are
less
inhibited(拘束的)than
adults,
they
absorb
language
like
little
sponges
(海绵).Well,
that's
what
happened
to
me,
and
I'm
very
thankful
for
the
experience.
???
So
far,
we
have
taken
my
cousin
to
Seattle
for
a
couple
of
days,
and
down
to
a
local
river
to
look
for
gold.
Today,
I
plan
on
taking
him
to
the
museum
in
the
town
of
Cashmere
which
is
excellent.
He
will
get
his
first
view
of
Native
American
life,
and
be
able
to
walk
through
some
of
the
original
pioneer
houses
of
this
area.
Like
most
boys
who
are
thirteen,
he
is
very
curious
and
constantly
asks
questions.
Of
course,
I
don't
always
have
the
answers!
Coming
to
the
U.S.
is
a
big
step
for
him,
especially
being
so
young.
Mind
you,
he
is
a
world
traveller.
His
mother
is
an
air
hostess
and
is
able
to
get
cheap
airline
tickets,
so
they
travel
internationally
all
the
time.
So
he
is
extremely
comfortable
in
airports,
and
understands
the
routines
of
getting
from
one
place
to
another.
I
hope
that
his
being
here
will
encourage
my
children
to
spend
time
in
Spain,
and
also
become
international
travellers.
(1).Why
does
the
young
man
come
to
America?
A.To
spend
the
summer
holiday.

meet
his
mother.

learn
English.
D.To
go
to
school.

can
we
know
from

often
travels
by
plane.

二、七选五
???
China
has
been
the
birthplace
of
many
of
the
world's
greatest
inventions.
It
was,
for
example,
the
first
country
to
produce
paper
money.
Before
the
invention
of
paper
money
and
coins,
people
used
many
different
kinds
of
things
for
buying
and
selling.
①________
This
exchange
of
goods
and
services
for
other
goods
and
services
is
called
bartering
(物物交换).
???
②________
In
1200
BC,
people
in
China
began
to
use
shells
(贝壳)
as
money.
Usually
the
shells
used
as
money
were
very
small.
This
made
it
easier
for
people
to
carry
money
over
long
distances,
and
allowed
for
trade
to
develop
between
different
parts
of
the
country.
???
In
the
years
which
followed
this
invention,
many
other
countries
around
the
world
began
to
do
the
same.
③________
???
The
next
development
was
in
1000
BC,
when
China
started
making
bronze
and
copper
shells.
It
wasn't
long
before
the
Chinese
made
round
coins
out
of
metal.
④________
By
500
BC,
metal
coins
had
begun
to
appear
in
countries
like
Persia
and
Greece,
and
later
in
the
Roman
Empire.
???
About
1,000
years
later,
leather
was
used
as
money
in
China,
and
in
806
AD,
the
first
paper
banknotes
were
produced
by
the
Chinese
people.
⑤________
A.?People
also
began
collecting
foreign
coins
as
souvenirs.
B.?During
that
time,
for
example,
buying
a
chicken
might
cost
several
potatoes.
C.?It
was
still
many
years
before
paper
currency
appeared
in
Europe.
D.?However,
as
economies
developed,
such
exchanges
became
impractical.
E.?They
also
used
tiny
shells
as
money
for
buying
and
selling.
F.?As
time
went
by,
trade
between
countries
increased.
G.?The
first
coins
often
had
holes
in
them
so
that
people
could
string
them
together.

I
will
never
forget
the
year
when
I
was
about
twelve
years
old.
My
mother
told
us
that
we

?Christmas
gifts
because
there
was
not

money.
I
felt
sad

thought,

Just

I

I

So
I?????9???
?a
plan
and
gathered
forty
people
from
my
company
to
help.
We
gathered
about
125
orphans(孤儿)
at
the
Christmas
party.
For
every
child,
we
wrapped
colorful
packages
filled
with
toys,
clothes,
and
school
supplies,
each
with
a
child's
name.
We
wanted
all
of
them
to
know

Before
I
called

their
names
and
handed
them
their
gifts,
I

11

them
that
they
couldn't
open
their
presents
until
every
child
had
come
forward.
Finally
the
???
12

they
had
been
waiting
for
came
as
I
called
out,
"One,

Open

As

opened

smiles

???
It
was
raining
pretty
hard
on
Halloween,
but
that
wasn't
going
to
stop
my
little
sister
Kate
and
me
from
trick-or-treating.
We
decided
to
start
at
Miss
Parson's
house.
Miss
Parson
was
loved
by
us
kids
who
lived
nearby
because
she
often
shared
her
self-made
cookies
with
us.
We
usually
finished
them
in
a
second,
especially
when
we
were
hungry
after
class.
Sometimes,
when
we
visited
her
or
did
something
for
her,
she
always
gave
us
surprise.
???
Kate
and
I
wondered
what
kinds
of
treats
she'd
offer.
As
we
walked
down
the
street,
I
held
an
umbrella,
and
my
sister's
hand,
a
bag
for
candy.
Jack-o'-lanterns
gave
soft
light
along
the
street.
Spider
webs
hung
in
all
the
windows.
Parents
who
were
dressed
up
like
monsters(怪物)
stood
in
doorways.
After
we
had
walked
a
few
blocks,
we
were
wet
from
head
to
toes,
and
I
felt
Kate
was
trembling
with
cold.
???
There
was
a
light
on
at
Miss
Parson's
house,
but
there
were
no
ghosts,
goblins(小妖精),
or
jack-o'-lanterns.
We
climbed
up
the
steps
and
saw
Miss
Parson
through
a
window.
She
was
drinking
a
cup
of
hot
tea.
???
"Maybe
she
doesn't
celebrate
Halloween,"
Kate
said
with
a
sigh,
disappointedly.
???
"Well,
even
if
she
doesn't,
she
usually
likes
it
when
we
visit
her,"
I
said
and
knocked
on
the
door.
???
Miss
Parson
seemed
surprised
when
she
opened
the
door
and
saw
our
dressing.
"Is
today
Halloween?"
she
asked.
"I
completely
forgot.
I
am
so
sorry!"
Paragraph
1:
Miss
Parson
rushed
us
into
her
house.

2:

______________________________________________________________________________
__________________________________________________________________________________
答案以及解析
一、
1.答案：(1)-(3)BBD
解析：(1).细节理解题。根据第一段第四、五句So,
with
the
"strike",
he
returned
home.
And
with
the
help
of
Darby,
he
borrowed
a
lot
of
money.(所以,带着“金矿的意外发现”,他回家了。在
Darby的帮助下,他借到了很多钱。)可知,
Darby的叔叔回到家寻求财务支援。
(2).推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“
I
stopped
three
feet
from
gold,
but
I
will
never
stop
because
men
say
'no'
when
I
ask
them
to
buy
insurance.(我在离黄金三英尺的地方停了下来,但我不会因为当我让人们买保险时他们说“不”就停下来。)和最后一段第一句
Darby
sold
more
than
a
million
dollars
in
life
insurance
annually(
Darby每年卖出100多万美元的人寿保险。)可知,
Darby从失败中挖掘出了他人生的金子。
(3).推理判断题。根据最后一段
He
owes
his
"stick-
ability"
to
the
lesson
he
learned
from
his
"quit-ability"
in
the
gold
mining
business.(他把他的“坚持能力”归功于他从金矿行业的“退出能力”中学到的教训。)可知,作者想告诉我们,除非我们坚持下去,否则我们无法实现我们的目标。
2.答案：(1)-(4)CAAD
解析：(1).词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“
My
teenage
daughter
had
left
home
for
university,
my
job
of
23
years
was
no
more,
and
a
creative
project
I'd
given
my
all
to
for
years
had
also
been
suddenly
called
off.
I
also
found
out
a
person
I
considered
friend
was
far
from
it.”可知,在这一年里,作者的女儿离开家去上大学了,干了23年的工作也没了,多年来全身心投入的一个创意项目也突然被取消了…。这些都表明2018年是极其艰难的一年,由此可知画线词词义为“艰难的”。
(2).主旨大意题。根据第三段内容,特别是“
A
year
earlier,
I'd
dreamt
about
an
earthquake."可知,本段详细介绍了作者一年前做的那个梦。
(3).推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“
returning
with
a
fragrant
flower.
'For
you.
You
need
to
smile
today,'
he
said
in
a
rich
and
beautiful
accent,
offering
me
the
flower
with
eyes
full
of
care.”可知,卖花老人送给作者一束花并告诉她应该微笑,眼里满是关心,由此可知作者最后感受到了希望是因为卖花老人对她的关心。
(4).细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“
I
walked
into
a
little
flower
shop
to
buy
a
gift
for
a
friend”可知,作者走进花店是想给朋友买礼物。
3.答案：(1)-(4)CDBA
解析：(1).推理判断题。根据第一段中的
I'm
not
thinking
the
way
I
used
to
think.
I
can
feel
it
most
strongly
when
I'm
reading
Involving
myself
in
a
book
or
a
lengthy(冗长的)
article
used
to
be
easy.
That's
rarely
the
case
anymore.(我不像以前那样思考了,当我阅读的时候,我能最强烈地感受到。过去,让自己沉浸在一本书或一篇长篇文章中很容易。现在这种情况已经很少见了。)
可以推断出,
作者认为曾经深入的阅读已经成为种挣扎。
(2).推理判断题。根据倒数第二段
I'm
not
the
only
one.
When
I
mention
my
troubles
with
reading
to
acquaintances,
Bruce
Friedman,
a
blogger,
also
has
described
how
the
Internet
has
changed
his
mental
habits.
His
thinking
has
taken
on
a
"staccato(不连贯的)"quality.
"I
can't
read
War
and
Peace
anymore,"
he
admitted.
"I've
lost
the
ability
to
do
that."(我不是唯一一个。当我向熟人提及我在阅读方面的困难时,博主
Bruce
Friedman也描述了互联网如何改变了他的思考习惯。他的思想已经具有一种“不连贯的”性质。“我再也看不懂《战争与和平》了,”他承认,“我已经失去了阅读的能力。)”可以推断出作者对网络持明显的担心态度。
(3).推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中的
And
what
the
Net
seems
to
be
doing
is
weakening
my
ability
for
concentration.
(网络似乎正在削弱我集中注意力的能力。)可以推断出人们越多地使用网络,他们就越需要努力保持专注。
(4).主旨大意题。这篇文章主要讲了作者经常上网,慢慢感觉到曾经自然深入的阅读已经成为一种挣扎,越多地使用网络,就越需要努力保持专注。所以A选项“网络正在逐渐改变我们吗?”最能准确概括文章大意。
4.答案：(1)-(4)CBAB
解析：(1).细节理解题。根据第一段中的“…
he's
actually
my
second
cousin,
and
is
here
to
spend
time
with
this
side
of
the
family
and
of
course,
to
learn
English.”可知,这个男孩到美国是为了学习英语。故选C项。
(2).细节理解题。根据第三段中的“
Like
most
boys
who
are
thirteen,
he
is
very
curious
and
constantly
asks
questions.”以及第二段中的“
Thankfully,
he
is
the
same
age
as
my
youngest
son”可知,作者的最小的儿子是13岁。故选B项。
(3).推理判断题。根据第二段所述内容,尤其是其中的“...and
I'm
very
thankful
for
the
experience."可知,作者认为她在西班牙的经历是非常有帮助的。故选A项。
(4).推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“
His
mother
is
an
air
hostess
and
is
able
to
get
cheap
airline
tickets,
so
they
travel
internationally
all
the
time.”可知,这个男孩经常与他的母亲一起乘飞机旅游。故选B项。
二、
答案：①-⑤BDEGC
解析：①由上文在纸币和硬币发明之前,人们用许多不同的东西来买卖。可知B项
During
that
time,
for
example,
buying
a
chicken
might
cost
several
potatoes(例如,在那期间,买一只鸡可能要用一些土豆来交换。)符合题意。
②根据下文的内容可知,在公元前1200年中国人开始使用贝壳作为货币,这就很容易携带钱到远方。所以上一段提到的用实物的方式不方便,不实用。可知D项
However,as
economies
developed,
such
exchanges
became
impractical.
(然而,随着经济的发展,这种交换变得不切实际。)承上启下,故选D项。
③根据上句内容,在这项发明之后的几年里,世界上许多其他国家也开始这样做,即也使用贝壳来作为货币。分析选项可知E项
They
also
used
tiny
shells
as
money
for
buying
and
selling.(他们也用小贝壳作为买卖的货币。)符合题意。
④根据本空的上下文内容可知,这时货币出现了新的发展,即出现金属货币。可知G项
The
first
coins
often
had
holes
in
them
so
that
people
could
string
them
together.(最早的硬币上常有洞,以便人们可以把它们串在一起)符合题意。
⑤本段主要讲述了纸币最早出现在中国。上文内容在公元806年,最初的纸币是由中国人制作的。可知C项
It
was
still
many
years
before
paper
currency
appeared
in
Europe.(欧洲出现纸币还需很多年。)符合题意。
三、
答案：(1)-(5)BDCAC;(6)-(10)BBCCB;(11)-(15)ACADD
解析：(1).考查动词辨析。句意:我妈妈告诉我们今年不会收到圣诞礼物了,因为没有足够的钱。send发送,派遣;
receive接收,收到;make制作;
exchange交换。
(2).考查动词辨析。句意:正当我开始接受那年没有圣诞礼物时,三位女人带着给我们所有人的礼物出现在我家门口。doubt怀疑;hope希望;
suggest建议;
accept接受。
(3).考查动词短语辨析。
break
in闯入;
settle
down定居下来;
turn
up出现,露面;
show
off卖弄。根据文章内容可知,这三位女人和我们素不相识,这是属于陌生人的善意,不可能闯入、定居或在我家门前卖弄,故选C项。
(4).考查名词辨析。
relief解脱,轻松;loss损失;
achievement成就;justice公正,公平。根据文章,这三位女人给我们带来了圣诞礼物,后文中也提到
no
longer
have
to
be
embarrassed...(不会再感觉到尴尬…),即为一种解脱。
(5).考查动词辨析。
blame责备;love疼爱;
forget遗忘;
affect影响。因为我收到了礼物,所以我感到如释重负,觉得自己没有被遗忘。
(6).考查形容词辨析。此处指几年后,当我站在新家的厨房里,想着怎样才能让我在新家里的第一个圣诞节过的既特别又难忘。
present目前的;first第一个;
recent最近的;
previous先前的,以前的。
(7).考查副词辨析。此处指我立刻想起了那三位女人的拜访。
hardly几乎不,几乎没有;
immediately立即;
regularly经常地;occasionally偶尔。
(8).考查名词辨析。句意:我决定我要为尽可能多的我能接触到的小孩创造同样一种受到重视的感觉。
strength力量;
independence独立;
importance重要;safety安全。我小时候的那个圣诞节让我觉得我自己也是很重要的。因此我也想让那些小孩感受到被重视的感觉。
(9).考查动词短语。句意:所以我想到一个计划,我召集了公司的四十名员工来帮忙。
keep
up
with跟上;
catch
up
with追赶上;
come
up
with想出;
put
up
with容忍。
(10).考查形容词辨析。句意:我们想要他们所有人知道自己是特别的(
special)。
(11).考查动词辨析。
remind提醒;
guarantee保证;
predict预测;
promise答应,承诺。因为我要小孩子们要等每个人都拿到礼物后才一起拆开,所以要提醒一下他们不要提早打开。
(12).考查名词辨析。此处指当我喊出“1,2,3,拆礼物!”时,他们一直在等待的时刻终于到来了。
chance机会;gift礼物;
moment时刻;
reward奖励。
(13).考查动词辨析。此处指他们灿烂的笑容点亮了整个房间。此空为固定搭配,
light
up意为“照亮”。
(14).考查名词辨析。此处指房间里的欢乐是显而易见的。atmosphere气氛;
sympathy同情;
calmness冷静;joy欢乐。前文提到孩子们的脸上的笑容点亮了整个房间,由此可见房间里充满了欢乐。
(15).考查介词辨析。根据文意,房间里充满了欢乐。但是这种欢乐不仅仅来自玩具,还来自那些来探望我的女人带给我的那种感觉。by靠近;till直到…为止;for为了;from来自。
四、
答案：①-⑤use/as;
a;
truly;
me;
to
tell
⑥-⑩to;
is
working;
performance;
recognition;
energetic
解析：①考查从属连词。句意:我觉得很累,因为我做了很多工作。分析句子可知,空处缺少从属连词,且主从句表示因果关系,所以用从属连词
because/as。
②考查冠词。句意:然后我收到了来自一个队友的一条信息。
message为可数名词,此处表示收到了来自一个队友的一条信息,且
message以辅音音素开头,所以用不定冠词a。
③考查副词。句意:短信说:“我们想让你知道,有人看到并真正欣赏你的辛勤工作。”应用副词修饰动词appreciate。
④考查代词。句意:这对我来说比其他任何事情都重要。to后接I的宾格me作宾语。
⑤考查动词不定式。句意:这让我想到也许我需要留出时间来告诉我生活中的人们,我是多么感激他们所做的事情。分析句子可知,此处用动词不定式作目的状语。
⑥考查介词。句意:对快递员说“谢谢”,告诉他你很感激他努力地工作……。say“
Thank
you”
to
sb向某人说“感谢”。
⑦考查动词的时态。句意:对快递员说“谢谢”,告诉他你很感激他努力地工作……。分析句子可知,
appreciate后接how引导的宾语从句,此处表示快递员一直在努力工作,表示现阶段正在进行的动作,故用现在进行时,故填
is
working。
⑧考查名词。句意:……告诉你女儿你为她在学校的表现感到骄傲……。her为形容词性物主代词,后接名词
performance。
⑨考查名词。句意:有时,当很长一段时间过去,我们做的好事没有得到赞赏,我们开始感到沮丧,但一个简单的赞赏可能会使我们在很长一段时间内再次充满活力。without为介词,后接名词作宾语。
recognition
for意为“对的赞赏”。
⑩考查形容词。
become为系动词,后接形容词energetic作表语。

主语从句
主语从句就是在复合句中作主语的名词性从句，通常放在主句谓语动词之前置于句首，也可用形式主语
it
代替，而将主语从句放至句末。主语从句主要有以下几类：
1.
由连词
that
引导的主语从句
that
无实际意义，只起连接作用，在句中不作成分且置于句首时不可以省略(it作形式主语，that
引导的从句作真正主语时，that
可省略)。
2.
由连词
whether，
if
引导的主语从句
whether
和if有词义(意为“是否”)，在句中不作成分但不可以省略。
注意:if引导的主语从句不位于句首，可用于it作形式主语的句型中。
3.
由连接代词引导的主语从句
由连接代词
who，
whose，
whom，
which，
what，
whoever，
whomever，whichever，
whatever
等引导的主语从句，其连接代词在从句中起名词性作用，有词义且充当一定成分。
注意：
（1）连接词
that
与
what
的区别
that
只起连接作用，无意义，在从句中不充当任何成分。what
既起连接作用，又在从句中作主语、宾语、表语等。
（2）what/whatever，
who/whoever
等引导的主语从句的意义差别
whoever，
whatever
等引导的主语从句不含有疑问意义，相当于名词或代词后加一个定语从句，即
whoever
可以换成
anyone
who，
whatever
可以换成
anything
that。
而
who
引导的主语从句含有疑问意义，翻译成“谁”；what
等引导的主语从句表示疑问意义时，翻译成“什么”，what
不表示疑问时可以换成
the
thing
that。
4.
由连接副词when，where，why，
how
等引导的主语从句，其连接副词有含义，且常在从句中作状语。
5.
it作形式主语，从句作真正主语
为了使句子平衡，通常使用形式主语，而将真正的主语从句放在后面。it作形式主语，从句作真正主语的具体用法如下：
（1）It+
be
+名词短语+从句。这样的名词短语有a
fact，a
surprise，an
honour，
a
pity，
common
knowledge/sense(常识)等。
（2）It
+
be
+形容词+从句。这样的形容词有funny，natural，true，strange，
important，
obvious，
certain，wonderful，possible，likely，probable
等。
（3）It
+动词（短语）+从句。这样的动词有
happen，
look，matter，strike(+
sb.)，
occur（+
to
sb.)等。
（4）It
+
be
+过去分词+从句。这样的分词有
said(据说），reported（据报道），believed(人们相信)，
known（众所周知)，
decided（已决定），
proved(已证实)，thought，
expected，
announced，arranged
等。
