A few years ago, a couple from England booked a bargain flight to the Caribbean online. It was from the local airport in Birmingham to the island of Trinidad. At the airport, there was no information about the flight on any of the departures boards so they went to ask at the information desk. That’s when they discovered why the price of the ticket was so ___72___. It was from Birmingham, Alabama in the US which is much closer to the Caribbean Birmingham, UK.
The moment you are up in the air, you can relax, can't you? Not always. On a flight from Newark to Denver, one passenger decided to relax and tried to use her reclining seat. Unfortunately, the man in the seat behind her wanted to work on his laptop and he used a special gadget called a "knee defender"to stop the seat from moving down. The woman asked him to remove it. He ___73___. She threw a cup of water over him. The plane stopped in Chicago, left the two passengers there, and continued its journey.
If traveling by plane is too stressful, why not take the train? A man from Cincinnati. in the US read that it was cheaper to buy a ticket to Indianapolis than Cincinnati. ___74___, Indianapolis was farther away. He thought it was OK, so he bought a ticket and left the train one stop early. When station staff checked his ticket, they said it was for the wrong station, and asked him to pay $155 extra!
The Eupostar train from London to Paris or Brussels is a nice way to travel, isn't it? Well, not always. In December 2009, several trains stopped in the tunnel. One family said that there were no lights, no air conditioning, no food, and no water on the train. After several hours, they ___75___ and walked through the tunnel to find another train that was warmer. Fortunately, no one told them they had the wrong ticket.
Of course, events like these don't happen very often. For most of us, journeys are still relaxing except for lines, delays, security checks or strikes.

I come from a family full of love. Dad always has sports with me. Mum always gives me useful advice when I come across difficulties, but she is also a (60)______ parent. When I was young, I had to earn my pocket money by helping with the housework.
One day after school, we walked by a bike shop and saw a kind of beautiful basket in the window: white, shiny, and decorated with flowers. I was (61)_______by it at once. I decided to have it on my bike. “It's beautiful,” I pointed it out to my mother, "Mom, please, can I get it? I'll do more housework for as long as you say, but I need it. I really love it.”
“You know,” she said, “ if you save up, you can buy this yourself.”
By the time I make enough pocket money, none will be (62)________ !
“I will buy it for you, but you have to work for it,” she said.
My mother bought the beautiful basket and kept it safely in a secret place I couldn't find. I washed dishes, tidied up the rooms, emptied the bins and even helped my dad clean the car. Each day, I counted my growing pocket money. After several weeks hard work, I jumped with joy. Oh, I made it (63)_________! I had the exact amount of money.
Another day, an unthinkable（难以置信的）thing happened, A neighbourhood girl rode by me with the exact same basket on her bike. Eight-year-old me cried and ran back home to tell my mother about the (64)________news.

【答案】60-65：CBADCD
【解析】
60. 空格前一句提到每当我遇到困难时妈妈都回给与我有用的建议，由转折词but可知，妈妈同样也对我很严厉。
61. 前一句提到五颜六色的蓝色有着漂亮的花朵装饰，所以因该是立刻吸引到我才复合语境，所以attracted比较合适。其他几个词，a 是感到害怕的，c是伤害，d是疲惫得到，因此attracted更加合适。
62. 根据语境可知，虽然到目前我挣到很多零花钱，但是没有钱被省下来，所以才导致我现在要求妈妈给我买。因此left合适。
63. I made it finally我最终做到了！a选项很快地不符合意思，因为我是花了好几个星期才挣够零花钱的，b突然 c立刻都不符合语境。
64. 因为我哭了，所以这个对于我来说是一个可怕的消息才对，所以terrible合适。
65. 由“A neighbourhood girl rode by me with the exact same basket on her bike.”可知，看起来一样的是basket。

Traveling should be an exciting, relaxing, pleasant activity but, sometimes, it is none of these things. Here are some true travel ___71 ___ stories.
A few years ago, a couple from England booked a bargain flight to the Caribbean online. It was from the local airport in Birmingham to the island of Trinidad. At the airport, there was no information about the flight on any of the departures boards so they went to ask at the information desk. That’s when they discovered why the price of the ticket was so ___72___. It was from Birmingham, Alabama in the US which is much closer to the Caribbean Birmingham, UK.
The moment you are up in the air, you can relax, can't you? Not always. On a flight from Newark to Denver, one passenger decided to relax and tried to use her reclining seat. Unfortunately, the man in the seat behind her wanted to work on his laptop and he used a special gadget called a "knee defender"to stop the seat from moving down. The woman asked him to remove it. He ___73___. She threw a cup of water over him. The plane stopped in Chicago, left the two passengers there, and continued its journey.
If traveling by plane is too stressful, why not take the train? A man from Cincinnati. in the US read that it was cheaper to buy a ticket to Indianapolis than Cincinnati. ___74___, Indianapolis was farther away. He thought it was OK, so he bought a ticket and left the train one stop early. When station staff checked his ticket, they said it was for the wrong station, and asked him to pay $155 extra!
The Eupostar train from London to Paris or Brussels is a nice way to travel, isn't it? Well, not always. In December 2009, several trains stopped in the tunnel. One family said that there were no lights, no air conditioning, no food, and no water on the train. After several hours, they ___75___ and walked through the tunnel to find another train that was warmer. Fortunately, no one told them they had the wrong ticket.
Of course, events like these don't happen very often. For most of us, journeys are still relaxing except for lines, delays, security checks or strikes.

Traveling should be an exciting, relaxing, pleasant activity but, sometimes, it is none of these things. Here are some true travel ___71 ___ stories.
A few years ago, a couple from England booked a bargain flight to the Caribbean online. It was from the local airport in Birmingham to the island of Trinidad. At the airport, there was no information about the flight on any of the departures boards so they went to ask at the information desk. That’s when they discovered why the price of the ticket was so ___72___. It was from Birmingham, Alabama in the US which is much closer to the Caribbean Birmingham, UK.
The moment you are up in the air, you can relax, can't you? Not always. On a flight from Newark to Denver, one passenger decided to relax and tried to use her reclining seat. Unfortunately, the man in the seat behind her wanted to work on his laptop and he used a special gadget called a "knee defender"to stop the seat from moving down. The woman asked him to remove it. He ___73___. She threw a cup of water over him. The plane stopped in Chicago, left the two passengers there, and continued its journey.
If traveling by plane is too stressful, why not take the train? A man from Cincinnati. in the US read that it was cheaper to buy a ticket to Indianapolis than Cincinnati. ___74___, Indianapolis was farther away. He thought it was OK, so he bought a ticket and left the train one stop early. When station staff checked his ticket, they said it was for the wrong station, and asked him to pay $155 extra!
The Eupostar train from London to Paris or Brussels is a nice way to travel, isn't it? Well, not always. In December 2009, several trains stopped in the tunnel. One family said that there were no lights, no air conditioning, no food, and no water on the train. After several hours, they ___75___ and walked through the tunnel to find another train that was warmer. Fortunately, no one told them they had the wrong ticket.
Of course, events like these don't happen very often. For most of us, journeys are still relaxing except for lines, delays, security checks or strikes.

72. A.low B. high C. special D. common
73. A. agreed B. begged C. refused D. apologized

60. 空格前一句提到每当我遇到困难时妈妈都回给与我有用的建议，由转折词but可知，妈妈同样也对我很严厉。
61. 前一句提到五颜六色的蓝色有着漂亮的花朵装饰，所以因该是立刻吸引到我才复合语境，所以attracted比较合适。其他几个词，a 是感到害怕的，c是伤害，d是疲惫得到，因此attracted更加合适。
62. 根据语境可知，虽然到目前我挣到很多零花钱，但是没有钱被省下来，所以才导致我现在要求妈妈给我买。因此left合适。
63. I made it finally我最终做到了！a选项很快地不符合意思，因为我是花了好几个星期才挣够零花钱的，b突然 c立刻都不符合语境。
64. 因为我哭了，所以这个对于我来说是一个可怕的消息才对，所以terrible合适。
65. 由“A neighbourhood girl rode by me with the exact same basket on her bike.”可知，看起来一样的是basket。
