A 考查动词词义辨析。 倒数第三段“The first winter storm destroyed his home and he froze to 16 .The villagers mourned for him.”告诉我们,由于Paul修建的房子不好,被冻死了,人们都来哀悼他,但没有帮助他度过寒冬,由此可以看出,在这一奇怪的传统中,别人是不能提供帮助的,所以选help。 4.D考查语境话选词。上一段告诉我们,成年的男孩是在每年的年初(At the beginning of every year)拿到一块地和资金的,四个选项中只有spring(春天)符合境。 5.B 考查动词辨析。对应第一段提到的was given,所以这里选receive意思是:收到。exchange 交换;recognize 认出,承认;advise 建议,忠告。 6.C考查语境话选词。前文告诉我们,他们要建的是房子,这是在外出考察,自然是找最好的房子和房主交谈以获得如何建好房子的建议。文中有多处同义词home的复现。 7.D考查名词词义辨析。每一位房主都很乐意提供给他们(关于如何建好房子的)建议。所以选advice。可以从“Soon he had so many great ideas that he began to 10 some of them.”中的idea得到启示。 8.B 考查动词辨析。Marc 参观了几栋房子,把房主们提供的建议搜集起来,所以选gather。意思是:搜集。9空后的“continued collecting more ideas”有同义词复现。expect 期待,预料;create 创造;understand理解。 9.C 考查副词辨析。考查动词辨析。Marc开始建房,而Paul 却仍在继续搜集如何建房的建议,两者之间是转折关系,所以用however。 10. A 考查动词辨析。由于搜集的好的修建房屋的方法太多了,以至于都忘了一部分,所以用forget。 believe 认为,相信;replace代替;doubt怀疑。 11. C 考查连词辨析。“He had several false starts”和“his home gradually rose from his land”之间是转折关系,所以用but。 12. D考查动词辨析。倒数第二段 “Each year, Marc searched for other good ideas he could use to make his own home look better.”中的make his own home look better,说的就是他所修的房子可以在建成后随时改良,所以用improve。repair 修理、修补; rebuild重建;sell卖。 13.A 考查名词辨析。第二段的“In each village, they found the nicest 31 and talked to the owners.”可知,应该选conversations,意思是:谈话、会话。 14.B 考查动词辨析。冬天来了,第一场雪使Paul意识到建房子所剩的时间不多了,所以自己便急匆匆地往回赶,所以选rush,意思是:冲、奔,急匆匆的赶。 15. A 考查形容词辨析。由后面的“The first winter storm destroyed his home”可以看出,由于动工时间较晚,时间紧,他修的房子不牢固,所以选weak,意思是:不牢固的。Funny滑稽的;small小的;amazing令人吃惊的。 16. B 考查名词辨析。下一句“The villagers mourned for him”告诉我们,村民们都去哀悼他,由此可知他被冻死了,所以选death。 17. C 考查动词辨析。这里指的是Marc由于修好了房子,顺利渡过了冬天,所以用survive,意思是:从困境中挺过来。 18. D 考查动词辨析。raise 养育。句意为:(后来)他成了村里的领导,养育了一家人,幸福满意的生活着。如果把 A 项后加上up,也是正确的。 19. B 考查形容词辨析。上面的故事告诉我们,建议和想法的寻找是简单的,而实践才是困难的,所以选easy。 20. D考查动词辨析。这里指的是最好的想法的“应用”,所以选apply。 3. 【2012·潍坊期末】Years ago,there was a very wealthy man who, with his devoted young son, shared a passion for art collecting.

D 考查语境化选词。由该段最后一句话“The young man had died while rushing a fellow soldier to a doctor.”可以看出,这里表达的意思是:有一年,随着冬天的来临,战争吞没了整个国家,小伙子离开家乡到前线报效国家。所以选war,意思是:战争。 3.

B 考查语境化选词。对应第一段的“a passion for art collecting”,所以悬念love。句意为:战士告诉老人,他儿子生前告诉大家他非常热爱艺术品,更不用说他的父亲了。 15. A 考查名词。好的艺术作品都是艺术家创作的,而战士带来的礼物是战士自己画的,所以他要表达的意思是:我知道你很喜欢艺术珍品,我肃然不是艺术家,但是我画了一副您儿子的肖像,送给您。所以选artist。 16. B 考查副词。尽管这幅画画的不是多么好(也就是文章所表达的:世界上绝对不会有人认为这是一位天才画家的作品),但是却细致的勾画出了小伙子的面部特征。所以选never。 17. C 考查固定搭配。in detail,为固定搭配,意为:详细地。 18. A 考查动词。收到了别人精心准备的礼物,自然应该感谢,所以选thank。 19. C 考查动词短语辨析。push aside “把……向旁边推”。语境为:老人把以前收藏的价值连城的艺术品放到了一边,而把儿子的画像挂到了最显眼的位置。其他各词都能和push搭配,但不符合语境。 20. C 考查语境化选词。这里指的就是老人收到的礼物,也就是战士送的画像,所以选gift。 4. 【2012·三明联考】 This is a story that can teach us a good lesson. One day, a man in rags begged from door to door along the street.

A考查动词辨析。ask sb. to do sth.意为:请某人做某事。句意为:宫殿主人邀请他留下来,住在宫殿里。asked要求;邀请,符合情景。其他各项也可以跟sb. to do sth.结构,但是意思不符合语境。warn警告,force强迫,demand要求。 4. B考查形容词的辨析。这里表达的意思是:我一生都在努力的工作,现在只想吃就吃饭睡觉,不想干任何工作。work hard 努力工作,符合句意。comfortably舒服的,honestly诚实的,unpaid无报酬的,均不符合句意。 5. C考查介词短语。without any work什么活也不干。任符合句意。句意见上一题。apart from和besides意为:除了……之外,还有。out of离开,在……外面。 6. B考查语境化选词。根据上文,now I just want to eat and sleep without any work." 现在只想吃饭睡觉,不想干任何工作。下文,如果是这样的话(if so),没有任何地方比这儿更适合你了。If so如果这样的话,so替代上文的“just want to eat and sleep without any work”。 7.D考查名词辨析。根据下文的“you can eat whatever you want” 可以吃任何你想吃的,可知在宫殿里储存了大量的食物,jewels珠宝, tastes味道;品味,books书,都不符合语意。 8. A考查动词辨析。这里表达的意思是:在宫殿里吃任何想吃的食物,没有人阻止。所以选stop意为:阻止。ask请求,notice注意, meet会见,均不符合句意。 9. D 考查副词辨析。很显然,上文“没有人阻止”和下文“不需要他做任何事情”之间是递进关系,所以用Moreover,意思是:而且。 10.C考查代词辨析。根据句意,没有事情需要他做,故选nothing。anything任何事情 everything一切事情,something某些事情,均不符合句意。 11.B考查形容词辨析。由but可以看出,根据句意,该句与下文“he felt a bit lonely and void.(感到空虚寂寞)”形成转折关系,在此处他对轮流着吃饭睡觉应该感到非常愉快。故选happy,意思是:愉快的,高兴的。 12.D考查副词词义辨析。由常识可知:时由开始的对这种生活感到愉快,到感到空虚寂寞,这是一个是一个逐渐变化的过程。所以选gradually,意为:逐渐的,渐渐地。surprised感到惊讶的, happy幸高兴的,mad疯狂的,均不符合句意。 13.C考查形容词词义辨析。有上句提到的 “lonely and void”,可知,每天除了吃就是睡的生活是很无聊。故选boring无聊的。strange奇怪的, enjoyable快乐的,relaxing令人放松的,均不符合句意。 14.A考查名词。根据上文,既然这种生活变的很无聊,就会对这种生活失去兴趣。no interest 没有兴趣;失去兴趣,符合语境。trust信任,patience耐心,curiosity好奇,心均不符合句意。 15.D考查名词。根据下文,主人回复他这儿没有任何工作,可知他想请主人帮他找份工作。Find a job找一份工作,符合句意。 16. C 考查语境话选词。语境为:主人很遗憾的回复他,这儿没有任何工作。所以选Sorry,意思是:遗憾的,抱歉的。That’s right没错;就是这样了,Cheer up使振奋,Never mind没关系;均不符合句意。 17A.考查动词。could not bear不能忍受。句意为:又过了几个月后,他再也不能忍受目前的生活了。Lose丢失、逝去,handle处理,risk风险、危险、冒险,不符合句意。 18. D考查副词辨析。前文“So he went to the owner and groaned”告诉我们:他去找过他的主人,这里表达的意思是:他再一次去找主人。只有again再一次、又一次,符合语境。Indeed的确, already已经,always一直,总是。 19.B考查动词辨析。prefer宁愿。句意为:如果你不给我份工作,我宁愿离开这里去地狱。hope 希望,期望;promise许诺,允诺;expect预期,期望。 20. C考查语境化选词。Actually实际上。句意为:你认为这里是天堂吗,这里实际上是地狱。no longer不再;also也,still仍然。 8. 【2012.02·吉林重点中学适应】 “Today is the day I start the big diet (节食),” I told my wife as I raised my hand and __1__, “No chocolate today!” “Oh, has the hospital gift shop __2__ selling it?” she asked. “No,” I said. “I'll just have to __3__ my strong determination.” But when I arrived at the hospital, my little friend Benton had been there __4__.

A考查动词辨析。语境为:祈祷我能赢,但现实的打击使我没有机会。praying“祈祷”,符合作者想赢得选举的心态。planning“计划”,calculating“计算”,judging“判断”,均不符合文意。 3.D考查动词辨析。it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式:to win a school election。这里指的是赢得学校的选举需要什么。take“需要、花费”,符合句意。assess“对进行评估”, provide“提供,给予”, mean“意味,意思”。 4.B。考查形容词辨析。根据上题,作者不知道那什么来赢得选举,所以感到沮丧。B.depressed“沮丧的”,符合作者的心情。concerned“关心的”, surprised“感到惊讶的”, confused“困惑的”,均不能表达作者此时的心情。 5.C考查副词辨析。suddenly突然。句意:我突然做了一个深呼吸并决定不放弃梦想。符合作者鉴定的态度。gradually“渐渐地”,immediately“立即”, impatiently“无奈地”,不能表达作者的态度。 6.B考查动词短语搭配。stand for elections为固定搭配,意为:参选。语境为:我决定在我上学的最后一年重新参选---并将要在选举中胜出。 7.A 考查名词辨析。由语境可知,该空指的是下文提到的我的竞争对手们,也就是 “competitors”(竞争对手)。句意:我意识到我的竞争对手有很多事情战友优势。companions“同伴”, enemies“敌人”,schoolmates“同学”,均不符合。 8.A 考查名词辨析。这里承接上文,意思是:我有优势的事情是什么? “cases”(情况;实例)代上文提到的“a lot of things”。 9.B考查名词辨析。句意:我最大的长处是我有信念。由上文的“in their favor ,in my favor”可知,这里谈论的是优势,所以选strength,意为“长处”。problem“问题”,worry“担心”, dream“梦想”,均不符合文意。 10.D考查形容词辨析。作者不想让自己普通的的外表阻碍自己将最好的一面展现出来。plain“普通的”。 作者在列举长处时,没有提到自己的相貌。由此可以推知,她的相貌应该不占优势,由此可知答案。 11.A考查动词辨析。分析完优势后,作者开始着手预先制定自己的选举计划。began“开始;着手于”。 12.C考查动词辨析。句意:我意识到女孩们开始了解我,并且认可我有能力代表他们。represent(代表),符合句意。 13.C考查连词辨析。上文所提到的我的优势“loved making friends and I liked being helpful”与下文打算利用自己的优势构成因果关系。所以选so,意思是“因此”。 14.B考查名词辨析。由下文的“public speaking”可知答案。“election speech”(选举演讲)。句意:为了学会在一个大型的演讲中如何表现自己,我还参见了一个高效公共演讲的培训。 15.C考查动词辨析。作者赢得选举,朋友们应该为此欢呼以示高兴。此处应填“cheered”(欢呼)。 16.D考查副词辨析。根据文意,这里表达的意思是:选举的胜利不仅是作者的也是他的支持者们的。also也符合语境。 17.A考查形容词辨析。作者的本意只是在竞选中获胜,但获胜后作者突然意识到,除了实现了自己的梦想外,他还得到了友情、享受了一路走来朋友慢的支持和帮助,所以作者认为自己收获了比目标还要多的东西,所以选accomplish,意为:完成,实现。accumulate 积累;devote献身,develope发展。 18.D考查副词辨析。Along the way一路走来),句意:在竞选的过程中,我交了许多新朋友, 并在前进的道路上帮助别人。 19.B 考查语境化选词。14空前的election是原词复现,这里再次重复参选的结果:赢得了选举。语境为:我已经在选举中获胜,并赢得了同学们的关爱。 20.C考查动词用法。这里指作者通过这次经历,有了更多的自信,可以“能够让自己的朋友快乐起来,让他们的脸上带着微笑,照亮他们的生活。”brighten,意思是:使快乐高兴,复合语境。 10. 【2012·郑州信息卷】A young student was one day taking a walk with a professor, who was commonly __1_ the students’ friend.

D考查名词。这是一个常识题,即能够过小溪而不湿鞋或脚。A,B和C虽然符合语法,但却不合常理。 2.C 考查名词辨析。语境为“工程师想出了一个办法”, to get automobiles across the river without getting their wheels wet 是不定式作定语,修饰所填的词。 3. B考查代词。前文交代了“two minds ”即“the young fisherman”和“ the engineer”这两者,所以选择both“两者都”。 4. A 考查名词。long “很长时间”;spirit take long“花费很长时间”。take后面不能直接加easy这个形容词;take money花费钱;take strength“尽力做”。根据后文的just place a board across the little stream可知,渔夫的桥不会花很长时间就能建成,用一块木板和“花钱”无关,也不是指“尽力做某事”。 5. A 考查动词。have it在此的意思是“达到目的,实现”,此句补全意为“只要在小溪放一块木板就搞定了”。 6. D考查动词。因为是人要过小溪,所以所建的这个临时木板桥只要够结实,只要渔夫不那么重,一切就没有问题,所以此处要选D,weigh“称重”。 7. C考查动词。根据上下文第二段的The young fisherman is thinking of a way to cross the stream选C,想一个过小溪的办法,就是“做计划”。 Promote促销,提升;permit 允许;profit 有益于。 8. B考查情态动词。根据下文可知,应该选择B项,前文问:那位工程师会计划做同样的桥吗?此空所在的句子:你知道他不会这样做的,所以选won’t。 9. D考查名词。由两个人,一个人要徒步过小溪,另一个是乘车过河,所以此处应该选择D项,就是说“车比人重得多”。 10. A 河流和小溪比较,应该选A比较合适,即河比小溪宽多了。如果选择B,则表示小溪本身很深,才会说河流更深,再结合下文的“A long wood bridge just won’t”,更能表明这里讨论的是河流和溪水的宽度。 11. A 考查动词。do在此的意思是“够用,足够”,补全后句意为:长的木桥还不够。make需和it搭配意为“成功”;pass意为“通过”时是及物动词;arise“出现”不合逻辑。 12. C考查动词短语。根据空后面的and break under its own weight可知答案。it指前面的a long wood bridge。因为木桥不够结实,那么在自身的重力下就会变弯曲甚至是断掉。 13. B考查形容词短语。由第二段的描述可以看出,结合下文的“However, the engineer's is not”可以看出,此处意为:渔夫的问题很容易解决,但是工程师的就不那么简单了,所以选simple意为:简单的,简朴的。similar 相似的; single 单个的;skilful 熟练的;娴熟的。 14. C考查动词。四个选项中只有C,feel是系动词,后面可以接形容词作表语。补全后句意为:别为工程师感到难过。 15. D考查动词短语。根据后面的the very beginning可知,此处填D项,from the very beginning从一开始。start with以……开始。 16. B考查名词。根据下文“The engineer can choose the type best suited to the river and the 17 nearby”,此处应该选B,即“每座桥都要适合其特殊目的”。be suited to适合。 17. A考查名词。空后面的nearby指的是前面的河流的附近,据此可知此处应该填A项,即“河附近的陆地”。 18. D考查形容词。根据前面的choose the type best suited to the river可知,此处的选择指的是:选择合适的桥,即“为什么一种桥要比其他的更为合适呢?”前文有同义异形词复现:suited。 19. C考查动词。空前面的主语they指的是前面的用纸板做的桥。空后面的宾语为five-ton truck,据此应该选择C,即这个桥不能承受5吨的卡车。 20. B此空补全后意为:但是你可以通过多一些实验弄清桥梁设计的一些主要思想。A填入后意为“设计桥梁的用处”,不要把它和“桥的用途”相混;material材料。 15. 【湖北省部分重点中学2011—2012学年度高三年级起点考试】 You Are Going Places One day I came home from school, changed my clothes and got ready for work.
