完形填空

Charles Plumb, a U.S. Naval Academy graduate, was a jet fighter pilot in Vietnam. After 75 combat missions, his plane was   36  by a surface-to-air missile. Plumb was   37  and spent six years in prison in Vietnam. He survived and now   38  about lessons learned from that experience.

One day, Plumb and his wife were sitting in a restaurant when a man at another table came up and said, "You're Plumb! You   39  jet fighters in Vietnam from the aircraft carrier (航空母艦) Kitty Hawk . You were   40  !"

"How in the world did you know that?" asked Plumb.

"I   41  your parachute," the man replied. Plumb gasped(倒吸一口氣) in surprise and   42  .The man pumped his hand and said, "I guess it worked!"

Plumb assured him, "It   43  did—if your chute hadn't worked, I wouldn't be here today."

Plumb couldn't sleep that night,thinking about that man. He says, "I wondered how many times I might have passed him   44  the Kitty Hawk. I wondered how many times I might have seen him and not even said 'Good morning, how are you', or anything   45  , you see, I was a fighter pilot and he was just a   46  ."

Plumb thought of the many days the sailor had spent on a long wooden table in the bowels(深處)of the ship   47  working on each chute, holding in his hands each time the   48  of someone he didn't know.

Plumb asks his   49  , "Who's packing your   50 ? Everyone has someone who provides what they need to make it   51  the day." Plumb also says that he needed many kinds of parachutes when his plane was shot down-he needed his   52  parachute, his mental parachute, his emotional parachute, and his spiritual parachute. He called on all these   53  before reaching safety. His experience reminds us all to   54  and be kind to people who pack our daily parachutes, and strengthen us to go through   55  times.

【解析】

試題分析:畢業(yè)于美國海軍軍官學校的查爾斯·普拉姆,在越戰(zhàn)期間是一名噴氣式戰(zhàn)機飛行員。在完成75次作戰(zhàn)任務后,他的飛機被地空導彈擊落。他被抓獲并在北越監(jiān)獄待了六年。有一天,當普拉姆和他的妻子在一家餐館用餐時,遇到了給他打包降落傘的水手,他很感激這個人,他的經(jīng)歷提醒我們所有人, 去發(fā)現(xiàn)那些平日里為我們捆扎降落傘的人, 是他們給了我們走過風雨的力量。

1.考查動詞及上下文的呼應。follow跟隨; destroy摧毀; spy偵查; see看見。根據(jù)上下文, 應知他的飛機是被一發(fā)地空導彈所摧毀。而不是被跟蹤或被發(fā)現(xiàn)或窺視。故選B。

2.考查動詞及上下文的呼應。release釋放; wound受傷; capture俘獲; kill殺死。根據(jù)下文的“...spent six years in prison in Vietnam. ”可知Plumb是“被捕”了, 而不是“戰(zhàn)亡”或“釋放”, “受傷”的結(jié)果并不意味著要坐牢。故選C。

3.考查動詞及上下文的呼應。Lecture演講; give給; study學習; hear聽見。他得以從那場磨難中逃生, 現(xiàn)在向人講述他從那次經(jīng)歷中所學到的東西。只有l(wèi)ecture才和about搭配表示向人講述之意。故選A。

4.考查動詞及上下文的呼應。Repair修理; make制造; fly飛行; clean打掃。由第一段第一句可知Plumb是一個“a jet fighter pilot”,所以是“flew”,故選C。

5.考查動詞短語及上下文的呼應。take down記下; look down俯視; set down放下; shot down擊落。由第一段第二句可知Plumb的飛機被地空導彈摧毀, 故是“被擊落”。故選D。

6.考查動詞及上下文的呼應。buy買; check檢查; find發(fā)現(xiàn); pack捆扎,包裝。由后文可知這個人的工作是在船上捆扎(pack)降落傘, 而不是檢查(check)。故選D。

7.考查副詞及上下文的呼應。gratefully感激地; suspiciously懷疑地; happily高興地; sadly傷心地。普拉姆又驚訝又感激地倒吸了一口氣。驚訝是這個人竟然認得他, 感激的是他捆扎的降落傘挽救了他的生命。普拉姆又驚訝又感激地倒吸了一口氣。驚訝是這個人竟然認得他, 感激的是他捆扎的降落傘挽救了他的生命。 故選A。

8.考查副詞及上下文的呼應。almost幾乎; surely肯定地; narrowly勉強地; nearly幾乎。由“Plumb assured him”可知Plumb說話是的語氣是非?隙ǖ, 應用surely,故選B。

9.考查介詞及上下文的呼應。abroad在國外; in在……里; on在……上; at在。有上文的“You flew jet fighters in Vietnam from the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk.”及下文的“sailor”可推斷出“Kitty Hawk”應是一艘航空母艦。在船上應用介詞on。aboard是“登船”之意。故選C。

10.考查連詞及上下文的呼應。so因此; because因為; unless除非; though可是。Plumb不跟那個人打招呼與“一個是飛行員, 一個是水手”之間是因果關系, 故用B。

11.考查名詞及上下文的呼應。sailor水手,海員; captain船長; pilot飛行員; technician技師。有下文Plumb thought of the many days the sailor had spent…可知,故選A。

12.考查副詞及上下文的呼應。Unwillingly不情愿地; immediately立刻; worriedly擔心地; carefully 仔細地。由下文可知, 他應細心地整理好每一個降落傘。故選D。

13.考查名詞及上下文的呼應。death死; fortune運氣; fate 命運; chance 機會。他手里都掌握著一個素不相識的人的命運。故選C。

14.考查名詞及上下文的呼應。wife妻子; children孩子們; sailors海員們; audience觀眾們。由上文的“...lectures about...”可知應是“觀眾”。故選D。

15.考查名詞及上下文的呼應。Luggage行李; bag包; parachute降落傘; future 未來。根據(jù)上文I   41  your parachute," the man replied 可知應選C。

16.考查動詞短語及上下文的呼應。make it through度過;make it to及時到達make it up to彌補;make it as取得成功。句意:每個人的生活中都有一個人, 這個人為我們提供度過難關所需要的東西。故選A。

17.考查形容詞及上下文的呼應。Psychological心里的; physical物質(zhì)的; imaginary想象的; safe安全的。由下文的“mental, emotional, spiritual”等詞可知, 除了心理上的、感情上的、精神上的降落傘之外, 他還需要“物質(zhì)上的”降落傘。故選B。

18.考查名詞及上下文的呼應。spirits精神; emotions感情; supports支撐; people 人們。他動用了所有這些支撐力量才得以安全降落。上一句中提到的parachutes均為比喻用法, 并不是指真正的降落傘, 故此處不用A。故選C。

19.考查動詞及上下文的呼應。award授予; recognize認出,發(fā)現(xiàn); reward獎賞; help幫助。他的經(jīng)歷提醒我們所有人, 去發(fā)現(xiàn)那些平日里為我們捆扎降落傘的人, 是他們給了我們走過風雨的力量。故選B。

20.考查形容詞及上下文的呼應。happy高興的; tough艱苦的; comfortable舒適的; cosy舒適的。他的經(jīng)歷提醒我們所有人, 去發(fā)現(xiàn)那些平日里為我們捆扎降落傘的人, 是他們給了我們走過風雨的力量,故選B。

考點:故事類短文。

When Winston Churchill was a young man, his father concluded that Churchill was “unfit for a career in law or politics” because he did so badly in school.  

When Charles Darwin was getting ready to   36   on his five-year expedition on The Beagle, his father was extremely   37  . he thought his son was falling into a life of sin and idleness.

George Washington’s mother was a complaining,   38   woman by all accounts. She thought little of Washington’s achievements and didn’t   39   at either of his presidential inaugurations(就職典禮). She was always complaining that her   40   overlooked her and she was especially angry when her son George ran off to   41   the army for the American Revolution. She   42   believed it was his duty to stay home and take care of her.

In his youth, the   43   Leonard Bernstein, one of the most talented and successful composers in American history, was continually pressured by his father to give up his   44   and do something worthwhile, like help out in his family’s beauty-supply business.

So listen   51   to the worries and criticisms of your friends and family, and do your best to put their   52   at ease, but then carry on. Listen last to your own heart. You   53   yourself better than anyone on earth. Make sure your song is   54  .
