【解析】

試題分析：文章大意：本文為記敘文，主要闡述了一位父親通過(guò)給兒子生日禮物的事情對(duì)兒子進(jìn)行了很好的教育。

1.根據(jù)前一句“Travis laughed as he tore at the wrapping paper on his birthday present”中的“l(fā)augh”一詞可以推斷出主人公面對(duì)生日禮物內(nèi)心很激動(dòng)。A項(xiàng)表示“驚訝的”；B項(xiàng)表示“羞愧的”而D項(xiàng)是“擔(dān)心的”，故選C。

2.he was a great player.”可以判斷出Chuck Hart是一籃球選手，故選B。A項(xiàng)是“團(tuán)隊(duì)”之意；C項(xiàng)表示“教練”而D項(xiàng)是“游戲，比賽”，故選B。

3.he was a great player”判斷出其與前面的句子之間是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，“盡管Hart由于他的糟糕的運(yùn)動(dòng)精神和聲名狼藉的行為舉止而備受批評(píng)，但他還算是一很好的籃球選手”，故用“Although”表示轉(zhuǎn)折引導(dǎo)讓步狀語(yǔ)從句較為適合。A項(xiàng)引導(dǎo)的條件狀語(yǔ)從句，B項(xiàng)引導(dǎo)的是條件狀語(yǔ)從句而C項(xiàng)通常引導(dǎo)原因狀語(yǔ)從句，故選D。

4.

5.All the guys on his team were wearing the name-brand shoes…”可以判斷Travis 也是希望穿上有Hart名字的鞋子，故選A。

6.Not Hart’s.”可以判斷出在他打開禮物時(shí)發(fā)現(xiàn)有不對(duì)勁的地方，構(gòu)成something wrong的表達(dá)與意思，故選B適合。A項(xiàng)表示“奇怪的”;C項(xiàng)是“真實(shí)的”而D項(xiàng)表示“有趣的”顯然意思不對(duì)。

7.his amazing work in the community”此處構(gòu)成短語(yǔ)“be known for…”表示“因?yàn)椤�而有名”，B項(xiàng)表示“鼓勵(lì)”，C項(xiàng)是“采納”之意而D項(xiàng)是“影響”的意思。

8.his heart stopped”可以判斷看見鞋子并不是他自己所想要的的時(shí)候，他呆住了。B項(xiàng)表示“凍住”能很好地體現(xiàn)Travis當(dāng)時(shí)的狀態(tài)。A項(xiàng)表示“落下”，C項(xiàng)是“搖動(dòng)”而D項(xiàng)是“折疊”的意思。

9.

10.’t”，故選D。

11.”表示“駛?cè)�，駛進(jìn)”之意。B項(xiàng)表示“舉起；張貼”；C項(xiàng)的短語(yǔ)是“拿起，從事，占據(jù)（時(shí)間、空間）”；D項(xiàng)表示“出現(xiàn)，（聲音）調(diào)高”之意。

12.“Hey, Travis, wait a minute…”以及后面爸爸的話可以推斷出此時(shí)爸爸說(shuō)話的態(tài)度上略有遲疑，故選B項(xiàng)表示“猶豫地，遲疑地”比較適合。A項(xiàng)表示“平靜地，和平地”；C項(xiàng)表示“高興地”而D項(xiàng)則是“自然地，本質(zhì)上地”。

13.依據(jù)前文“I saw the names of the two guys and made a(n)…”以及后面的內(nèi)容可以知道爸爸在鞋子的選擇上是進(jìn)行過(guò)對(duì)比的，故此處有短語(yǔ)“make a choice”表示在“作出選擇”。B項(xiàng)表示“努力”；C項(xiàng)是“評(píng)論”之意而D項(xiàng)則表示“錯(cuò)誤”。故選A。

14.

15.

16.此處進(jìn)行上下文內(nèi)容的對(duì)比尤其是“You could have acted like a kid when you didn’t get the shoes you wanted,”表示Travis本可以像個(gè)小孩子去表達(dá)對(duì)禮物的不滿意，意在表達(dá)一種如同小孩一般的無(wú)理取鬧但其實(shí)他沒(méi)有，所以C項(xiàng)適合。

17.you were polite and made the best of it.”可以看出兩句話之間是明顯的轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故要使用but,所以選C。

18.

19.

20. 全文首尾呼應(yīng)“His dad had used his mind and heart to give the son a thoughtful gift”表明爸爸是用心為他的兒子準(zhǔn)備了生日禮物，故選A項(xiàng)的”gift“點(diǎn)名主題。
