totally dumbfounded when I opened it and saw a $100 note可知,作者对信封里的钱感到惊讶。] 3.[细节理解题。根据第四段的We bought her some small gifts:perfumes(香水),chocolates,jewelry etc and will give it to her this week as the way

sth.“容忍做某事”。主语she与treat之间为被动关系，故填动名词的被动形式，即being treated。‎ ‎2．Your art skills are excellent and admirable, which leave me a deep ________(impress)．‎ 答案：impression　leave sb. a deep impression “给某人留下深刻印象”。‎ ‎3．________(devote) to his research work, the professor cared little about other things.‎ 答案：Devoted　本句中含有be devoted to的结构，结合句子结构可知，应用过去分词短语作状语，描述一种状态，即“潜心于研究工作”，故填devoted。‎ ‎4．Please pass the papers on to the students ________(seat) at the back of the classroom.‎ 8‎ 答案：seated　分析句子结构可知，设空处作定语，修饰the students，因此用所给词的形容词形式表示“入座的，就座的”这种状态。故填seated。‎ ‎5．Sales director is a position ________communication ability is just as important as sales skills.‎ 答案：where　设空处所填词引导定语从句，指代表抽象地点的先行词position，关系词在从句中作状语，意为“在此职位上”，故填where。‎ ‎6．In ________(come) the headmaster, followed by a group of students.‎ 答案：came　表示方向的副词位于句首，且句子主语为名词，句子应采用全部倒装结构。‎ ‎7．He tried to run away but gave up when he found himself ________(surround)．‎ 答案：surrounded　本句中宾语himself和surround存在被动关系，应用过去分词作宾补，故填surrounded。‎ ‎8．The old man got on the bus, ________(support) by a girl.‎ 答案：supported　the old man与support之间为被动关系，故填过去分词supported，在此处作方式状语。‎ ‎9．He is always ready to take ________heavy responsibilities.‎ 答案：up　take up “开始担当(新的责任)”。take up responsibility “承担责任”。‎ ‎10．No one in the carriage had ________(previous) spoken to the ticket owner before.‎ 答案：previously　句意：事先车上没人和这个持票人说过话。副词作状语修饰动词短语had spoken to。‎ 三、完形填空。‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可能填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ I was a shy kid.Nothing seemed harder than talking to people.I didn't even

don’t want to talk to？Here are tips and inoffensive ways to get out of unwanted conversations.‎ ‎·Go for a refill(续杯)．‎ It is natural for anyone at a party to be excused to get a refill.1. And once you excuse yourself，make a move fast before the person requests you to get a refill for him as well.‎ ‎·Pretend bad mood.‎ Cut off the conversation before it starts by saying something along the lines of “I’m not in a good mood.Can I talk to you later if you don’t mind？” 2. Say it firmly so that people get the message loud and clear.‎ ‎·Ask your friend to save you.‎ ‎3． Simply text your friend and ask him or her to come for apparently something important.You will be able to skip a boring chat with a seemingly reasonable excuse.‎ ‎·4. ‎ You are advised to look away from that person and don’t make eye contact，so that you can give powerful hints(暗示) that you find the conversation extremely boring.5. Be sure to tune in to the conversation every now and then so you don’t come across as rude.‎ A．Behave in an obviously careless way.‎ B．Just be sure that the person you are talking to does not offer to accompany you to do so.‎ C．Don’t act too polite in an attempt to draw sympathy.‎ D．Use body language to indicate boredom.‎ E．Your friend is bound to perform brilliantly in coping with the dull one.‎ F．Look elsewhere and pretend that something else has caught your attention.‎ G．Stuck in an unwanted conversation，how do you get out of it?‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文主要介绍了怎样避免无聊的谈话。‎ 8‎ ‎1．B　解析：选项B中的so就是指空前的“get a refill”这一行为；同时空后的“make a move fast...as well”与选项B的内容相呼应。‎ ‎2．C　解析：空后的代词it指代空处前一句中的“I’m not in a good mood.Can I talk to you later if you don’t mind？”，所以空处及后一句与这一问题有关；同时后一句中的“Say it firmly”与选项C“不要为了获得同情而表现得太礼貌”在内容和语气方面是一致的。‎ ‎3．G　解析：根据该段的主题句以及空后两句可知，空后的两句话是对选项G这一疑问句的回答，选项G能够引出下文，符合语境。‎ ‎4．D　解析：根据上文中的主题句都使用祈使句这一特点可知，该段也应用祈使句作主题句；同时根据该段中的第一句可知，把目光从这个人身上移开，不要有眼神交流，这样可以给对方强烈的暗示，使其发现这段谈话极其无聊，这与选项D “使用肢体语言暗示厌烦”相吻合。‎ ‎5．F　解析：空处起承上启下的作用，且根据该段主题句可知，使用肢体语言暗示厌烦，所以选项F “看向别处并假装你的注意力被其他东西吸引”与之吻合。‎ 8‎
