By the end of the third week in a  9center in Virginia, about 35,000 pieces of  10had been received and sorted.

      As   11, we opened letter after letter. They gave us   12and became a source of strength for us. We used them to  13ourselves.

【答案】

1.C

【詳解】本題考查It的用法。相當(dāng)于It was a few minutes past three when…,我丈夫騎車摔去的時(shí)候,是在三點(diǎn)鐘多一點(diǎn)。

2.D

【詳解】從文中提到的騎馬過欄桿從馬上掉下來,動(dòng)作應(yīng)當(dāng)是jump(跳)而不應(yīng)當(dāng)是walk(走),climb(爬),pull(拉)。

3.B

【詳解】根據(jù)意思,胸下癱瘓的人會(huì)不能正常呼吸,suitable(適合的),unsuitable(不適合),able(能夠),所以選擇unable(不能夠)。

4.A

【詳解】在他從馬上摔下來那時(shí)起,我們就過上了殘疾人的生活,有了許多意想不到的挑戰(zhàn)。 disability(殘疾),possession(財(cái)產(chǎn),擁有物),convenience(方便),experience(經(jīng)歷,經(jīng)驗(yàn))

5.D

【詳解】本題考查連詞的用法,根據(jù)意思,這里應(yīng)當(dāng)有轉(zhuǎn)折的含義。然而我們后來發(fā)現(xiàn)那都是共度難關(guān)的獻(xiàn)禮。本來是壞事,但作者卻稱之為gifts. 因?yàn)楹笪睦镉泻芏嗳岁P(guān)心。

6.A

【詳解】共度難關(guān)。只有選擇share difficulties共同解決困難,才會(huì)是值得慶幸的事情。其他的幾個(gè)意思上講不通。

7.C

【詳解】從全文意思可知這句話的意思是“災(zāi)難也會(huì)有好的一面”。所以選擇wonderful。

8.B

【詳解】,每天都有信或名信片像雪片那樣飛來。說明世人是如此care for(關(guān)心)Chris。

9.A

【詳解】因?yàn)槭軅,可以看出是在住院治療的三周?nèi),收到了35,000封郵件。所以是medical centre(醫(yī)護(hù)中心),選擇A。

10.D

【詳解】由前文的letters and postcards poured in every day可以看出這里應(yīng)當(dāng)選擇mail(郵件)。

11.B

【詳解】由we opened letter after letter(我們打開一封封的信)而前文里提到是my husband摔傷了,說明這里的we是夫妻關(guān)系。As a family,作為一家人,我們一起打開一封封的信。

12.C

【詳解】那些信能給我們的應(yīng)當(dāng)是許多comfort(安慰),而不會(huì)是effect(效果,影響), effort(努力)或explanation(解釋)

13.A

【詳解】根據(jù)前句,那些mail給了我們安慰和力量,所以我們用它們?nèi)ncourage(鼓勵(lì))我們自己。 express(表達(dá))

14.B

【詳解】到標(biāo)上“funny”(有趣的)這類郵件里去找,自然是需要“歡笑”的時(shí)候。因?yàn)?“funny”的東西能給我們帶來 “l(fā)augh”

15.C

【詳解】到“Disabled”的信中找的經(jīng)驗(yàn),可以判斷這些建議是來自于那些people in wheelchairs(坐在輪椅上的人)或者是甚至是people in bed(癱瘓?jiān)诖?的人。

16.D

【詳解】happily說明生活得高興,and連接的并列部分,可以推斷出這里應(yīng)當(dāng)是successfully(成功地生活著的人),如果使用bitterly(凄苦地),weakly,那么應(yīng)當(dāng)是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,需要用but連接。

17.A

【詳解】本題考查外國人說話的習(xí)慣連接語,我們意識(shí)到這些信應(yīng)當(dāng)大家共享,所以我們在這里給你們看上一封。選擇 here。 這種類似的用法如:Here is some advice for you.   This is VOA. Here is the news from China.

18.D

【詳解】文章一開頭就講到了騎馬摔傷的,所以選擇riding。

19.C

【詳解】給你勇氣和力量來面對的挑戰(zhàn)應(yīng)當(dāng)是一個(gè)困難的一個(gè)。而不是technical(技術(shù)的),valuable(有價(jià)值的,寶貴的),different(不同的),所以選擇C。

20.B

【詳解】本題是這篇完形填空最難的一題,很容易誤選為alive讓你活著,答案應(yīng)該是close,表示我們永遠(yuǎn)和你在一起,我們永遠(yuǎn)支持你,把你當(dāng)成我們親密的朋友。

【備考建議】考查語境,是這題的點(diǎn)睛之筆,也為這篇完形填空畫了一個(gè)圓滿的句號(hào)。學(xué)生應(yīng)該在做題時(shí)充分考慮所出現(xiàn)的語境,將自己置身于文中,那樣才能做對此題。所以這篇完形做全對還是相當(dāng)困難的。

科目:高中英語 來源:2015屆江蘇阜寧縣溝墩中學(xué)高一下期期末考試英語卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

My name is Ralph and I am 42 years old. I work in a factory that I enjoy very much. On May 27, 1999, I was working on an automatic machine. While working my hand was pulled into the machine and my middle finger on my right hand was ripped off. I had surgery to replace what was left of the finger and now I have a finger that is almost as long as my index finger.

Over the years I have been very blessed for a full and healthy life. Most of all, blessed for having my wife. We have grown together and grown in our faith. Life is going to go on with or without my finger. I was not going to let this take over my life and I pushed to go back to work and got light duty.

This was where my lesson began. When I returned to work, I started getting comments and some teasing from people asking me if it was worth losing my finger over a pack of cigarettes. Someone started a rumor that I had dropped a pack of cigarettes and reached down to pick them up and that is how I lost my finger. This is not true. This rumor hurt more than losing my finger in that machine. Everyone was called in to a meeting to resolve this matter and get the story straight. I had to share my lesson.

We can ruin a person’s life by just a few bad words. There is an old saying that I will never forget: “Words and water are easily poured, but impossible to recover.” So please remember to watch what you say.

1.According to the author, his index finger on his right hand is almost as long as ________.

A. his middle finger on his right hand

B. his middle finger on his left hand

C. his thumb on his right hand

D. his thumb on his left hand

2.From the second paragraph, we know that the author ________.

A. was not happy with a short finger

B. had a good relationship with his wife

C. didn’t want to work any more in the factory

D. wanted to find an important job

3.The rumour about the author is that he lost his finger ________.

A. when he was picking up a pack of cigarettes that had fallen into the machine

B. because he was not careful and smoked when running the machine

C. because he was too sleepy to operate the machine properly 

D. when he was reaching down to fix something wrong in the machine

4.Which of the following can match the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?

A. Nothing is really beautiful but truth.

B. Bad words are meaningless.

C. Lies having short legs can do harm.

D. Words cut deeper than swords.
