A. allowed B. admitted C. forced D. accompanied 答案：B　此处表示男子被送入医院。be admitted into此处相当于“被医院接收”。不是“被允许”住院，因此不用A项；下文说明，男子独自生活，没有人陪他住院，因此不选D项。accompany 陪同，陪伴；allow允许；force强迫。‎ ‎2. A. remind B. bring C. visit D. call 答案：D　根据常识判断，父亲住院，应该让护士给女儿打电话。此段最后一句也有提示。remind“提醒”；visit“拜访”，显然不合逻辑。 ‎ ‎3. A. family B. friend C. relative D. companion 答案：A　男子独自居住，因此女儿是他唯一的亲人或家庭成员，因此用family“家属、亲属”。relative“亲戚”；companion“伙伴”，不合逻辑。 ‎ ‎4. A. terrified B. annoyed - 7 -‎ C. disturbed D. upset 答案：D　听到父亲病重的消息，女儿非常不安，因此用upset。terrified“害怕的”；annoyed“恼火的”；disturbed“心烦的”。 ‎ ‎5. A. argument B. relationship C. disagreement D. bet 答案：A　根据上下文分析，女儿赌气出走，因此是跟父亲吵架。此处argument相当于quarrel。disagreement“意见不一”，不至于离家出走；bet“打赌”，不合语境。‎ ‎6. A. forgiveness B. advice C. comfort D. permission 答案：A　从上下文女儿所表现出来的后悔和伤心判断，女儿想得到父亲的原谅。向父亲“求教”，寻求“安慰”，征得“同意”，均不合逻辑。forgiveness原谅，宽恕；comfort安慰；permission允许；advice建议。 ‎ ‎7. A. Love B. Hate ‎ C. Believe D. Envy 答案：B　从女儿赌气出走这一点判断，女儿对父亲说的最后一句话是“我恨你”。envy“嫉妒”不合逻辑。‎ ‎8. A. ruined B. lowered C. worsened D. decreased 答案：C　从最后父亲去世判断，他的病情恶化，因此用worsen。lower“降低”，decrease“减少”都不合题意。‎ ‎9. A. fruitless B. various C. obvious D. uncertain 答案：A　从后面父亲去世判断，治疗没有结果，因此用fruitless。uncertain“不确定的”，与下文不符。‎ ‎10. A. left B. caught ‎ C. observed D. kept 答案：C　护士注视着医生跟男子的女儿谈话，因此observe sb.doing sth.。leave sb.doing表示“任凭某人做……”；catch sb.doing sth.”发觉某人做……”；keep sb.doing sth.“让某人一直做……”。‎ ‎11. A. disappointment B. hurt C. puzzle D. anger 答案：B　听到父亲病逝的消息，女儿脸上露出“痛苦”的神情。“失望”、“迷惑”、“愤怒”都不合语境。‎ ‎12. A. pulled B. pushed C. took D. set 答案：C　护士有话要跟病人的女儿说，因此把她“带到一边”；push...aside“把……推到一边”；put/set sth.aside“把……收起来”，都不合题意。‎ ‎ 13. A. result B. fate ‎ ‎ C. feeling D. loss 答案：D　护士因为对方失去父亲而表示难过。fate“命运”不合语境。‎ ‎ 14. A. still B. once ‎ ‎ C. never D. hardly 答案：C　从女儿伤心这一信息判断，她从来没有真正恨过父亲，因此用never。‎ ‎ 15. A. reached B. thanked - 7 -‎ ‎ C. missed D. loved 答案：D　根据上下文分析，女儿是赌气出走，她一直爱着父亲，故用love。miss“想念”不能同前面的hate形成对比。 ‎ ‎16. A. buried B. hid ‎ C. cleaned D. covered 答案：A　女儿非常伤心，因此把脸埋在床单上，故用bury。用hide，cover等都不合语境。‎ ‎17. A. silent B. painful C. fearless D. countless 答案：D　女儿非常伤心，因此流了泪水，用countless“无数的”，说明女儿伤心的程度。silent“无声的”，修饰tears不合适。painful“疼痛的”。 ‎ ‎18. A. decided B. tried C. hoped D. promised 答案：B　此处表示护士不忍心看父女生死离别的场面。因此此处表示：护士试图不看这一场面。decide not to do sth.表示“决心不……”，不合语境。‎ ‎19. A. feel B. place ‎ C. notice D. open 答案：C　护士在病人的床头柜上发现了一张纸条，此处表示“无意发现”，因此用notice。feel强调“有感受而注意到”不合语境；place“放置”，不合逻辑。‎ ‎20. A. also B. again C. forever D. soon 答案：A　父亲原谅了女儿，同时也请求女儿对他的原谅，因此用also。again“又一次”；forever“永远”；soon“不久”，都不合逻辑。 ‎ 阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。‎ ‎(2013·北京，A)‎ EP Portable Heater We all know that the cost of heating our homes will continue to be a significant burden on the family budget. Now millions of people are saving on their heating bills with the EP portable heater. With over one million satisfied customers around the world, the new EP heats better and faster, saves more on heating bills, and runs almost silent.‎ The EP has no exposed heating parts that can cause a fire. The outside of the EP only gets warm to the touch so that it will not burn children or pets.‎ - 7 -‎ The EP will not reduce oxygen in the room. With other heaters, you'll notice that you get sleepy when the heat comes on because they are burning up oxygen.‎ The advanced EP also heats the room evenly,_wall to wall and floor to ceiling. It comfortably covers an area up to 350 square feet. Other heaters heat rooms unevenly with most of the heat concentrated to the center of the room. And they only heat an area a few feet around the heater. With the EP, the temperature will not vary in any part of the room.‎ The EP comes with a 3year warranty (保修) and a 60day, no questions asked, satisfaction guarantee. If you are not totally satisfied, return it at our expense and your money will be given back to you.‎ Now we have a special offer for 10 days, during which you can enjoy a half price discount and a free delivery. If you order after that, we reserve the right to either accept or reject order requests at the discounted price.‎ Take action right now!‎ 文章大意：本文是一篇说明文，属广告文体，介绍了一种新型的暖风机。与其他的暖风机相比较，它的好处，目的是让读者买他们的产品。‎ ‎1．What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2? ‎ A．The heat of the EP.‎ B．The safety of the EP.‎ C．The appearance of the EP.‎ D．The material of the EP.‎ 答案：B　主旨大意题。本题考查考生整体把握、提炼信息、概括总结的能力。A项“暖风机的热”；B项“暖风机的安全”；C项“暖风机的外表”；D项“暖风机的材料”。由第二段内容可知，这种暖风机不会引起火灾，不会烫伤孩子和宠物，显然是在讲它的安全，故正确答案为B项。‎ ‎2．From the passage, we can learn that the EP ________.‎ A．doesn't burn up oxygen B．runs without any noise C．makes people get sleepy D．is unsuitable for children and pets 答案：A　细节理解题。考生根据文章第三段第一句话The EP will not reduce oxygen in the room可知正确答案为A。‎ ‎3．The underlined word “evenly” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.‎ A．continuously B．separately C．quickly D．equally 答案：D　词意猜测题。由文章第四段可知，此处把EP暖风机与别的相比，这种暖风机能够把墙、门、天花板 都能均匀加热，不像其他的暖风机，只加热附近小片区域，因此该词意为“均匀地，平等地”，D项正确。‎ ‎4．The main purpose of the passage is to ________.‎ A．persuade people to buy the product B．advise people to save on heating bills C．report the new development of portable heaters D．compare the functions of different heater brands 答案：A　推理判断题。A项“说服人们买产品”；B项“建议人们省加热的钱”；C项“‎ - 7 -‎ 报告暖风机的最新发展”；D项“比较不同品牌的暖风机的性能”。根据文章内容可知，本文为广告文体，向大家介绍了一种新型的暖风机，与其他的暖风机相比，它的好处，目的是让读者买他的产品，因此A项正确。‎ 阅读理解。‎ The way we do things round here ‎ Some years ago，I was hired by an American bank. I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department that started，“Dear John，I am quite pleased that you have decided to join us.” That “quite” saddened me. I thought he was saying “we're kind of pleased you decided to join us although I wish we had hired someone else.”Then I discovered that in American English “quite” sometimes means “very”， while in British English it means “fairly”．‎ So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don't just mean the words people speak. It is body language，dress，manners, ideas and so on. The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures (文化)．‎ Some of these differences may be only on the surface—dress，food and hours of work—while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with. Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate (气候)，while getting on with business.‎ ‎ Some of the differences may be an improvement. People are more polite；the service is better；you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again. However，other differences can be troubling, like punctuality (准时). If you invite people to a party at 7 o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in the American Midwest，an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece. I prefer not to use the word “late” because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive. It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country.‎ 本文介绍了作者所感受到的文化差异。‎ ‎1. The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought ________.‎ A. the American bank didn't think much of him B. the American bank might hire another person C. it's difficult to get used to American culture D. it's easy to misunderstand Americans 答案：A。推理判断题。由第一段中“That “quite” saddened me”．可以推断出作者认为这家美国银行不重视他。‎ ‎2．The underlined word “highlights” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.‎ A. encourages B. helps to narrow C. increases D. draws attention to 答案：D。词义猜测题。由下文可知人们做事情的方式引起了作者对文化差异的关注。‎ ‎3．According to the author，what should we do with most cultural differences?‎ - 7 -‎ A. Ask the native people for help. B. Understand and accept them.‎ C. Do things in our own way. D. Do indepth research.‎ 答案：B。细节理解题。由第三段最后一句可知我们要习惯文化差异并接受存在的文化差异。‎ ‎4．When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are________.‎ ‎ A. Italians B. Germans ‎ C. Greeks D. the British 答案：B。细节理解题。由最后一段“If you invite people...on time in Germany...”可知B项正确。‎ 下面短文中有10处语言错误，请在有错误的地方增加、删除或修改某个单词。‎ 增加：在缺词处加一个漏词符号（∧），并在其下面写上该加的词。‎ 删除：把多余的词用斜线（﹨）划掉。‎ 修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写上修改后的词。‎ 注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；‎ ‎ 2. 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。‎ Boys and girls,‎ ‎ May I have your attention, please?
