答案:1.A;2.C;3.D;4.A;5.B;6.A;7.B;8.C;9.B;10.D;11.B;12.C;13.D;14.A;15.C;16.D;17.D;18.A;19.B;20.B;
解析:

(1)

根據(jù)下文的letters,cards,flowers,calls,and visits可知是作者的丈夫突然去世后,她收到了這些表示哀悼的東西。receive“收到”,符合文意。

(2)

took a bad knock意為“受到經(jīng)濟或感情上的嚴重打擊”。她丈夫去世,她應該是“悲痛”(grief)。

(3)

從the whys and hows可知此處應該是understand,意思是作者想弄明白這些不幸的事情為什么,怎么會發(fā)生在自己家。

(4)

結(jié)合上一句想弄明白“問題”,這里應該是問題的答案answers。作者得不到答案,只有悲傷。

(5)

由下文和deeply可知,是有一封短信打動了作者,所以用touch表示“打動”。impress使……有印象,影響;appreciate欣賞,贊賞;affect影響,這三項都不符合語境。

(6)

從through high school可知是在上學時的朋友,用grade表示“年級”。這里指從六年級開始到高中一直是好朋友。

(7)

句中謂語動詞drifted表示“漂流,漂泊”,說明兩人在“畢業(yè)”(graduation)以后分開了,去了不同的地方。

(8)

通過語境可以判斷,該處缺少表轉(zhuǎn)折關系的連詞,A、B意思不符合語意,however常和逗號連用,故應選C項。

(9)

由上文可知,這里應是“失去聯(lián)系”,所以用lost和touch組成短語。

(10)

此處是動詞的-ing形式作結(jié)果狀語,leaving在此處意為“使處于某種狀態(tài)”,符合上下文語境。

(11)

從下文的finding a job and raising three young children可以判斷,這些都是她的責任,所以用responsibilities。

(12)

她和Pete的關系就像我和Bob的關系一樣。like作介詞用表示“像……一樣”。including是“包括”的意思;as well as作介詞時,含義是“還,也”;except for表示部分與整體的關系,表示“除了……之外”,用于非同類事物的排除。

(13)

這里表示的是夫妻之間摯愛至深,用relationships。contact接觸;background背景;interest興趣。

(14)

根據(jù)上下文分析,此處表示她在信中把“我”媽媽對她做的一件事寫出來與“我”分享,所以用share。

(15)

在西方如果是初次見面的話,接吻(kiss)、擁抱(hug)都可以,但此處作者的媽媽是在安慰作者的朋友,所以用hug更合適。

(16)

上文已提到媽媽很久以前就去世了,所以這里引用的也是媽媽很久以前說的話。

(17)

我感到我現(xiàn)在幾乎能聽到媽媽對我說話了,用could。

(18)

用powerful“強有力的,很有效的”,符合語境。

(19)

我的朋友將它珍藏了這么多年,此時又將它傳遞給我。pass sth.on to sb.“把某物傳遞給某人”,符合語境。

(20)

  解析:作者贊賞、感嘆媽媽說給朋友,朋友又傳給自己的這句話!癐 love you”是多么完美的語言。unnecessary不必要的;curious好奇的;abstract抽象的,都不符合語境。

  解題導語:本文是一篇夾敘夾議文,作者在丈夫突然去世正悲傷的時候,收到朋友的信。朋友也有著喪夫的遭遇,當時得到了作者媽媽的安慰,現(xiàn)在朋友又把作者媽媽安慰自己的話傳給了她。

  The young man asked, “How, Mr Einstein, can you  3 your fame?”

  The scientist said, “It seems that you have been thinking of  4  famous   every day.”

  The young man nodded, “Yes, I have been dreaming  5 being a   person as well-known as you. Every minute I am thinking of how to become famous, I don’t   know when I can achieve my fame.”

This was one of my experiences    1   .When I was in my 30s,I was working for a large international company which had its head office in London. I was working in the   2   department.

The company had a training center which was just outside London. Different courses were held there throughout    3    and I    4    go on one training course a year. These usually started    5    a Sunday evening and lasted six days.

Once I was    6    a week’s training course with about forty    7    sales people. I was in the bar on the Friday evening and suddenly a woman who was    8    behind the bar asked me a curious question.“I hope you don’t    9   my asking,” she said, “but I’ve been     10    about it all week. Have you got a sister   11     Mary?” The woman’s name was June. And she used to do various jobs at the training center’s worked in the office, she organized all the food and drink for the center and she worked in the bar at lunch time and in the evening.

My answer    12    June’s question was “Yes”,and June said,“I thought    13   .I met her last September when she was organizing a course here.” At that time, my sister was working for   14    company but in a different part of the country. That was    15    she came to be at the training center.
      16    surprised me was how June guessed we were brother and sister. Three things made it even more   17    .First, she had met my sister six months before she met me. Second, they have about sixty new people every week at the training center’s about one thousand five hundred people had    18    the center in those six months. And    19   ,my sister is married, so she doesn’t have the same family name as me.
