【答案】

1.答案：B

解析：根據(jù) “High desert winds…to close all but one runway”可知因沙塵暴關(guān)閉所有的跑道，只留一條，故應(yīng)為延時(shí)降落。

2.答案：A

解析：因?yàn)樯硥m暴迫使機(jī)場(chǎng)關(guān)閉跑道。 B為“警告”；C意為“打掃，席卷”；D意為“提醒”，均不符合題意

3.答案：C

解析：飛機(jī)在等待降落的過(guò)程中應(yīng)該是繞城市盤旋。故應(yīng)選C。 A. watch用于著動(dòng)態(tài)的場(chǎng)面； B. visit意為“參觀，拜訪”； D. cross意為“橫穿”

4.答案：D

解析：根據(jù)上下文句意可知，飛機(jī)要繞城市盤旋幾分鐘以便等待著陸

5.答案：C

解析：句意為；“我們被告知仍在座位上坐好，系好安全帶，因?yàn)轱w機(jī)可能有顛簸�！贝颂帒�(yīng)為because引導(dǎo)的原因狀語(yǔ)從句

6.答案：B

解析：make…pale by comparison “使……相形見(jiàn)絀”，此處用以強(qiáng)調(diào)飛機(jī)在空中極不穩(wěn)定

7.答案：A

解析：句意為：“象過(guò)山車一樣的巨烈運(yùn)動(dòng)使旅客惡心而不得不用嘔吐袋。A. sick 意為“惡心的”；B. nervous意為“緊張的”； C. angry 意為“生氣的”；D. afraid意為“害怕的”。

8.答案B解析：此空前的that指的是using airsickness bags，也就是發(fā)生在飛機(jī)上狹小空間中的嘔吐，因此選用narrow“狹窄的”，后面的space指的是飛機(jī)內(nèi)部空間。empty 意為“空的”，secret意為“秘密的”，均不合題意。

9.答案A解析：在這種情形下本來(lái)就很難受，在飛機(jī)上嘔吐使得這種難受更加強(qiáng)烈，此處serve意為“起……作用，用作……”。

10.答案：A

解析：根據(jù)后面的 a sense of anxiety and fear可知，人們都很緊張、焦慮，在這種情形下飛機(jī)上的人一定是靜悄悄的。

11.答案：D

解析：飛機(jī)上的焦躁不安，應(yīng)該是能夠很明顯的被感覺(jué)到，故選clearly

12.答案：B

解析：從后文中的 “he didn’t know he was supposed to be afraid and worried…Those are what we grown—ups have learned …”他不知道害怕和著急……，那是我們成年人……，可推測(cè)出應(yīng)該是孩子

13.答案：D

解析：應(yīng)是飛機(jī)的每一次顛簸讓孩子體驗(yàn)坐過(guò)山車一樣的感受，孩子發(fā)出咯咯的笑聲

14.答案：A

解析：句意為我意識(shí)到孩子不知道他應(yīng)該害怕和擔(dān)心

15.答案：B

解析：應(yīng)是為他的安全擔(dān)心

16.答案：C

解析：成人都是從孩子時(shí)代過(guò)來(lái)的。是成人的親身經(jīng)歷讓他們知道孩子不知道什么是害怕和擔(dān)心

17.答案：D

解析：因?yàn)楹⒆硬恢篮ε�，自然是在飛機(jī)的顛簸中享受坐過(guò)山車般的快樂(lè)

18.答案：A

解析：sat back into my seat意為坐回到座位上

19.答案：C

解析：句意應(yīng)為：“我坐回到我的座位上，假裝真地坐上了過(guò)山車。”A項(xiàng)意為“幾乎”；B項(xiàng)意為“最后”，D項(xiàng)意為“突然”，均不合題意。

20.答案B解析：我甚至咯咯地笑了一兩次。作者應(yīng)該是真的笑出了聲，才讓鄰座的手拿嘔吐袋的人懊惱。做成了某事用managed to do.

語(yǔ)篇解讀：本文記述了作者一次因開(kāi)會(huì)去拉斯維加斯時(shí)，飛機(jī)因沙塵暴而延時(shí)降落，在不斷延長(zhǎng)的等待中，成人焦急、害怕，唯獨(dú)不知恐懼的嬰兒在享受著過(guò)山車一樣的顛簸。作者也深受啟發(fā)，體驗(yàn)了一次孩子的享受。

There are a few memories from our childhood that will stay with us forever. A few that seemed so    36    at the time may cause us to smile years later.

Entrants（參加者）were to tell an interesting story about their    39   . Winners would receive a phone call from Mrs. Santa Claus（女圣誕老人）! Mrs. Claus would award（獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)） the lucky child free    40    of a local store.

     Well, the call came. My mother talked to Mrs. Claus and then    41    the phone to me. I didn’t    42    the fact that many people were listening to our conversation. However, the fact that this lady had a    43    connection to Santa, that was important.

     I didn’t know it yet, but my mother had    44    the attention of the contest judges by telling about the time I had    45    a wall with crayons（蠟筆）. Even I knew that this was not the kind of    46    that Santa would approve.

     Suddenly, in a very pleasant tone（語(yǔ)氣）of    47   , Mrs. Santa Claus asked me about my art work. I    48    that this lady was the real Mrs. Claus, not a radio station actress standing in for her.

     I    49    down the phone and ran crying from the room. My crime（罪行）had not    50    unpunished. Santa would    51    know that I’d been bad!

     It turned out that I did get a    52    present from the radio station and its sponsor（贊助商）. And I guess Santa didn’t find out about the wall. Maybe he did and was in a    53    mood. In any case, my Christmas presents did not    54    a piece of coal（煤）.

I recently heard a story about a famous scientist who had made several very important medical breakthroughs. He was being interviewed by a reporter who asked him    36   he thought he was able to be so much more    37   than the average person.

He    38   that it all came from a(n)   39   with his mother that occurred when he was about 2. He had been trying to remove milk from the fridge when he    40   the slippery(光滑的) bottle, its contents running all over the kitchen floor.

When his mother came in,    41   shouting at him or giving him a lecture, she said, "Robert, what a great and wonderful    42   you have made! I have    43   seen such a huge pool of milk. Well, the damage has already been    44  . Would you like to get down and    45   in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?"

Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said, "Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to    46   everything to its proper order. So, how would you like to do that? We could use a sponge(海綿), a towel or a mop. Which do you prefer?" He chose the sponge.

His mother then said, "You know, what we have here is a    47   experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two    48   hands. Let's go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can make it." The little boy learned that if he    49   the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it. What a wonderful    50  !

This scientist then remarked that it was at that moment that he knew he didn't need to be    51  to make mistakes. Instead, he learned that mistakes were just    52   for learning something new, which is,    53  , what scientific experiments are all about. Even if the experiment "doesn't   54  ," we usually learn something    55   from it.

It was 4 o’clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.

Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was   3 .

When I began my high school years, I was quite interested in biology. I read lots of books of my father’s about animals, and I was   36   much educated about such matters as a 16-year-old could be.

    One Sunday afternoon, I was   37  with friends about animals. I said the whale（鯨魚）was   __38  a mammal animal. They disagreed. Finally, I called a   39   over to help settle the matter. I knew I was  40  , so I was looking forward to the teacher  41   I was right. My friends were eager for an opposite answer. We asked her   42  the whale was a mammal. “No, the whale is a fish,” she said without a moment’s   43  .

You could have knocked me over with a feather. My   44   was hurt because I lost the argument, but that wasn’t the main reason I was too  45  to speak. I still knew I was right, which   __46  the teacher was wrong. Not only was she wrong,   47   she was completely ignorant（無(wú)知的） about something I thought was   48   knowledge. But she was a teacher who had taught a long time. Everyone   49   her and no one else thought she could be wrong.

__50  that, I hadn’t known grown-ups could be wrong. This   51  shaped the way I viewed people as I grew up.   52   I found anyone treated another person with too much respect and admiration, I thought——and still think——“   53   silly.” From that point on, I had no  54__ for authority（權(quán)威）.
