Once upon a time there lived a woman who had a bad temper(脾氣). She  1 at everyone around her. For most of her life she believed the anger inside her was  2  else’s fault(過錯).
She went to see a wise monk(高僧) to ask for  3  . The monk told her to take a large pot(罐子) from his kitchen, fill it with  4 , and stand outside on the sidewalk in front of his house. “It’s hot outside,” the monk said to her “When a person  5 , you must give him or her a glass of water. Do this until there is no left inside you.”  7  she stood outside with a water pot and served water to walkers every day for the next several weeks.
Every morning she asked   8  if there was any anger inside her. And every morning the answer was, “yes.” So she continued  9 water. Until one afternoon when a man walked up, took the water pot out of her hand and drank the water up, and then  10 it onto the ground as he went on his way.
The woman was very  11 . Unable to control herself, she  12  the pot and threw it at the rude man. The pot broke into pieces over the back of his head and he fell to the ground, bleeding.
As the woman calmed down, she realized the mistake of what she had made and began to cry. She called 911 and  13  what had happened. A moment later an ambulance(救護(hù)車) and two police cars arrived and took the man away. Then one of the police officers walked over to the woman, who was  14 crying, and said, “ The city owes(欠) you a big ‘thank you.’ That man has been  15 our wanted list for over a year now. He is an important suspect in many murder cases and robberies.”

試題分析:本文講述了一位婦女總是將自己的怒氣歸結(jié)到別人的身上,然后她向高僧尋求建議。高僧讓其每天為路人提供水,于是,她每天發(fā)水。有一天,她因為控制不住自己的情緒,用罐子將一個粗魯?shù)娜舜騻,結(jié)果這個人卻是一名警察正在通緝的罪犯的故事。
小題1:point“指著”,laugh“笑”,smile“微笑”,scream“喊叫,尖叫”。根據(jù)who had a bad temper可知,婦女的脾氣不好,所以應(yīng)是她對周圍的人大聲喊叫,故用screamed。所以本題選D。
小題2:根據(jù)題干,本句的意思是“認(rèn)為她生氣都是因為別人的錯!盿nybody用于疑問句或否定句中,故排除;nobody表示否定,故排除;而everybody表示每個人,過于絕對,故排除。故應(yīng)somebody。所以本題選B。
小題3:information“信息”,news“新聞”,advice“建議”,message“口信,信息”。根據(jù)題干,本句的意思“她去向一個德高望重的高僧尋求建議。”故用advice。所以本題選C。
小題4:juice “果汁”,water“水”,milk“牛奶” coffee“咖啡”。根據(jù)下文中you must give him or her a glass of water可知,本空應(yīng)該是water。所以本題選B。
小題5:根據(jù)下文的 served water to walkers可知,本句應(yīng)該是walk past“走過”。所以本題選A。
小題6:根據(jù)下文的if there was any anger inside her可知,本空應(yīng)該是anger。本句的意思是“直到你心中沒有怒火為止!彼员绢}選C。
小題7:根據(jù)下文可知,婦女按照高僧說的做了,故應(yīng)該用so。
小題8:根據(jù)題干,因為是婦女要消除自己的怒氣,故應(yīng)該是問她自己,故用herself。所以本題選A。
小題9:根據(jù)上文可知,婦女仍然有怒氣,故應(yīng)繼續(xù)為路人提供水,所以應(yīng)該用serving。所以本題選B。
小題10:根據(jù)此人的行為took the water pot out of her hand and drank the water up和下文可知,這個人應(yīng)該是將pot仍在了地上。所以本題選D。
小題11:根據(jù)Unable to control herself和threw it at the rude man.可知,婦女很生氣。所以本題選D。
小題12:根據(jù)上文可知,pot在地上,故應(yīng)該是撿起來。所以本題選B。
小題13:婦女給警察打了電話,故應(yīng)該用報告report。所以本題選C。
小題14:already “已經(jīng)”,still“仍然”, always “總是”never“從不”。根據(jù)語境,本句應(yīng)該是“她仍在哭泣!逼渌x項明顯不符合題意。所以本題選B。
小題15:根據(jù)題干,應(yīng)該是on our wanted list。本句的意思是“那個男人是一年多來我們最想抓到的罪犯。”所以本題選A。
點評:這篇短文內(nèi)容比較簡單,理解不難。各小題與上下文聯(lián)系比較緊密,答題中一定要注意聯(lián)系上下文。答完后多讀幾遍,看看是否符合邏輯,適當(dāng)修改。個別小題可以當(dāng)作單獨的詞義辨析題來做,先區(qū)分詞義,結(jié)合語境選出最能使語句通順的答案。

THIS is a story about a boy called Sparky. For Sparky, school was all but impossible. He failed every subject in the eighth grade. He got a zero in physics. It made him the worst physics student in the school’s history. He didn’t do much better in sports. He made the school golf team, but lost the only important match of the season.
He didn’t have friends, either. Other kids didn’t care about him. If a classmate said “hello” to Sparky outside of school, he would feel very surprised. There’s no way to tell how he might have done at dating(約會). Sparky never once asked a girl to go out in high school. He was too afraid of being turned down.  
He was a loser(失敗者), and he and his classmates knew it. But, somehow, he decided to keep trying. The only thing important in his life was drawing. He was proud of his ability even though no one else appreciated it. He submitted(遞交) some cartoons for his high school yearbook, but they were rejected.

He never succeeded in kicking a football and never got a date with the little red-haired girl.
