Now I    51   that in marriages，true love is    52   of all that is The happiest people don’t   53   have the best of everything；they just    54   the best of everything they have   55   isn’t  about how to live through the storm，but how to dance in the rain.

試題分析：本文通過老人不管妻子患病與否都始終不離不棄，接受了一切，無論好壞。告訴我們生活不僅僅是經(jīng)歷過風(fēng)雨，還包括在困難中得到真愛。
小題1:C沒難度，關(guān)鍵名詞就在后面 waiting room 。這個(gè)詞break 有可能選，但是break之前一定要很緊張才行，這里老漢沒有緊張。這個(gè)詞第一次考，一般不對(duì)。
小題2:D護(hù)士對(duì)一個(gè)老漢能做的動(dòng)作，最符合邏輯的是telling，告訴。 promising 表示許諾，有可能選，再看看賓語就可以排除，at least 40minutes 沒有一個(gè)承諾是這樣子的，我保證你至少要等四十分鐘，不是承諾這是詛咒。Promise 這個(gè)詞從來沒對(duì)過。
小題3:B before原以為會(huì)出before 和until 的辨析，出卷老師太讓我失望了。
小題4:C看動(dòng)作的發(fā)出者，一個(gè)焦急的老漢會(huì)做的動(dòng)作，肯定是look at 看手表這個(gè)選項(xiàng)。這個(gè)詞Fix再次在選項(xiàng)中出現(xiàn)，全國卷中從來沒有對(duì)過。
小題5:D 上下文串聯(lián)。本題較為簡單，根據(jù)上下文含義可知我不忙。
小題6:A turn up表示“出現(xiàn)”的意思。06北京出現(xiàn)過的，就是我和姐妹們一起談?wù)撊松�，爸爸突然出現(xiàn)，當(dāng)時(shí)是錯(cuò)誤選項(xiàng)。這里要注意破折號(hào)表示解釋說明，我不是很忙，為啥呢？因?yàn)槲业牟∪嗽赼ppointed hour 里面沒有出現(xiàn)。Appoint是任命這個(gè)意思，但是show off 是“炫耀”的意思。
小題7:A need 不算一個(gè)很標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的動(dòng)詞，但是和后面的動(dòng)詞結(jié)合起來看就不難解決。B forget叫做忘記，他忘記了回去吃飯這樣的事情，不算一個(gè)appointment。C agree to do是講過的，同意做某件事情，在文中沒人提要求，所以不存在同意不同意。D happen to do 07全國卷1那篇笨鵝飛上天空的文章出現(xiàn)過，那么老頭子早上碰巧要去找老伴吃飯，順便來一趟意愿，這樣的意思詭異。所以只有選C。
小題8:B名詞找重復(fù)，這里重復(fù)再后面，剛做到的時(shí)候放一放，第五段的第一句出現(xiàn)了marriage,表示他們倆曾經(jīng)有一段，那么選老婆這個(gè)選項(xiàng)
小題9:Dshe had been there 表示的是她已經(jīng)在那個(gè)nursing home 里面有一段時(shí)間了，有難度，其他幾個(gè)選項(xiàng)的中文意思比較模棱兩可， A late 要遲到的是老頭子，不是他老婆。 B well 她老婆身體很健康 C 老婆曾經(jīng)在他身邊。
小題10:.B 08北京出現(xiàn)過，負(fù)面態(tài)度，充分證明了我的worried 和anxious是同義詞的說法，anxious 在表意的時(shí)候有一層“因等待而焦慮”的意思，在這里抓住了“等待”這一點(diǎn)，就可以排除其他幾個(gè)負(fù)態(tài)度的詞。
小題11:C 有一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)需要結(jié)合后文，比較容易，49空那句話給出了很好的對(duì)應(yīng)。neither 這個(gè)選項(xiàng)強(qiáng)調(diào)過，表示否定2者。
小題12:A之前見過，現(xiàn)在認(rèn)不出來，全國卷北京卷都�？嫉膔ecognize再次出現(xiàn)，證明了這個(gè)單詞很重要。
小題13:C多次強(qiáng)調(diào)的詞，表示驚訝，正面態(tài)度負(fù)面態(tài)度都可以的。干擾選項(xiàng)moved干擾度比較大，需要對(duì)全文的態(tài)度進(jìn)行把握，文中進(jìn)行到這里并沒有很明顯的作者的正面態(tài)度出現(xiàn)，證據(jù)就在于他的那個(gè)問句：你知道她不認(rèn)識(shí)你，還是每天早上要去陪她？這句話顯然不是一個(gè)正面態(tài)度的體現(xiàn)，而真正的態(tài)度轉(zhuǎn)正的地方在倒數(shù)第二段，他忍住淚水，所以這里不能選moved這個(gè)表示正面態(tài)度的詞語。
小題14:.D表示狀態(tài)的持續(xù)，送分題。B選項(xiàng)then 表示時(shí)間先后C選項(xiàng)thus 表示因果
小題15:B關(guān)鍵在前面的動(dòng)詞hold back忍住忍回去，忍回去的只有淚水。
小題16:A realize表示主觀意識(shí)到，又是一再強(qiáng)調(diào)的常考詞。試卷中同時(shí)出現(xiàn)realize 和recognize，并且在不同選項(xiàng)中還是第一次
小題17:B真愛就是對(duì)于所有一切的接受。本題點(diǎn)明了文章的主旨，老人不管妻子患病與否都始終不離不棄，所以是接受了一切，無論好壞
小題18:A這個(gè)詞的意思是必要地，一個(gè)副詞的解決去看動(dòng)詞，這句話的意思是最幸福的人并不一定是一個(gè)擁有所有最好東西的人。
小題19:B機(jī)關(guān)題，實(shí)際上考查動(dòng)詞和名詞的搭配，和在一起是一個(gè)固定詞組，make the best of 充分利用，就是說他們可以沒有最好的東西，但是他們把他們所擁有的東西，發(fā)揮到了極致。C選項(xiàng)favor 不能選，因?yàn)楸硎镜囊馑际瞧�，A和B 你喜歡哪個(gè)，有比較的時(shí)候才用favor，在這里沒有比較愛人認(rèn)得你還是不認(rèn)得你，所以不選。
小題20:.D 句意辨析。生活不僅僅是經(jīng)歷過風(fēng)雨，還包括在困難中得到享受。
點(diǎn)評(píng)：本文通過老人不管妻子患病與否都始終不離不棄，接受了一切，無論好壞。告訴我們生活不僅僅是經(jīng)歷過風(fēng)雨，還包括在困難中得到真愛。本文要求考生具有扎實(shí)的英語詞組、短語、習(xí)慣用法等英語搭配的知識(shí)，這對(duì)于理解文章的邏輯關(guān)系特別有利。文章的邏輯關(guān)系不外乎列舉、原因、結(jié)果、讓步、對(duì)照、補(bǔ)充、目的、條件等關(guān)系。解題時(shí)應(yīng)聯(lián)系上下文尋找相關(guān)線索，如某一個(gè)詞的原詞、指代詞、同義詞、近義詞、上義詞、下義詞和概括詞等。但由于我們?cè)谧鲱}時(shí)不可能總是重復(fù)地閱讀文章，因此，在做完形填空時(shí)要培養(yǎng)一種捕捉并記憶相關(guān)信息的能力。

I was sitting in the room reading when I heard a loud noise. To defend my home from break-in, I picked up my defense weapon--- a broom and went out. There on the roof of my porch（門廊）, I saw a grey fluffy squirrel. I drove her away with the broom, but the next day I heard her again.
I searched squirrels on the net and found because their teeth keep growing, they have to constantly chew on things to shorten their teeth. This was disturbing so I asked my husband to call in some wildlife control people.
On Monday morning two men showed up, with guns in their hands. I pointed uneasily to the hole in my porch roof. They held up their guns. Suddenly I saw in my mind the baby nursery inside. I stopped them and confirmed that they wouldn’t harm her. They hesitated, but finally put down their guns. Then they brought out a bottle of deodorizer（除臭劑）and sprayed it into the squirrel’s home. They told me she would not like the smell and would leave.
There was no sign of Mrs. Squirrel, so they blocked the hole, took my cheque for $250 and left. Shortly after they left, Mrs. Squirrel returned from her shopping trip. She was mad at being driven out and began feverishly clawing at the porch roof. In order to stop the destruction of my home, I drove her away with the broom again.
Each day thereafter, Mrs. Squirrel continued her attack on my possession. I then called the company to report that “SHE’S BAAAAAACK…” The receptionist said that if Mrs. Squirrel had managed to find another way into my porch roof, it would be a new charge. I replied I couldn’t continue contributing my husband’s hard-earned income to their silly wildlife experts and hang up.
I went to the porch and banged on the roof. Mrs. Squirrel came out and glared at me. We negotiated some terms, came to an agreeable arrangement and went back into our respective homes.
All is quiet these days, although large quantities of materials have been removed from my garage wall and my daughter claims that some of her doll-house furniture has disappeared. I still hope that Mrs. Squirrel would leave, but I will wait until it is warmer and hopefully until after the birth of the little ones.
小題1:What did the author think of the squirrel at first?
A．Troublesome.B．Dangerous.C．Interesting.D．Clever.
小題2:Why didn’t the author ask the wildlife control people to come again?
A．She worried about the safety of the squirrel.
B．She thought the company charged too much.
C．She decided to drive away the squirrel herself.
D．She doubted the ability of the wildlife control people.
小題3:What can we learn from the passage?
A．Getting rid of the squirrel needs patience.
B．The squirrel has destroyed the author’s house.
C．The author has developed affection for the squirrel.
D．The author singed an agreement with Mrs. Squirrel.
小題4:The author has written the passage in a (an) ________ way.
A．persuasiveB．seriousC．informativeD．a(chǎn)musing

John and Bobby joined a wholesale company together just after graduation from college the same year. Both worked very hard. After several years, however, the boss promoted (提升) Bobby to the position of manager but John remained an ordinary worker. John couldn't understand it anymore, gave his resignation(辭呈) to the boss and complained that the boss didn't value hardworking workers, but only promoted those who flattered (奉承)him.
The boss knew John worked very hard for the years. He thought for a moment and said, "Thank you for your criticism(批評(píng)), but I have a request. I hope you'll do one more thing for our company before you leave. Perhaps you'll change your mind and take back your resignation."
John agreed. The boss asked him to go and find out anyone selling watermelon on the market. John went and returned soon. He said he had found out a man selling watermelon. The boss asked how much per kg? John shook his head and went back to the market to ask and returned to tell the boss$1.2 per kg.
Boss told John to wait a second, and he called Bobby to come to his office. He asked Bobby to go and find anyone selling watermelon on the market. Bobby went, returned and said,"Boss, only one person selling watermelon. $1.2 per kg, and $ 10 for 10 kg. He has 340 melons in all, 58 of which are on the table. Every melon weights about 2kg. Bought from the South two days ago, they're fresh and red, good quality."
John was very impressed and realized the difference between himself and Bobby. He decided not to resign but to learn from Bobby.

Twenty-first century humanity has mapped oceans and mountains, visited the moon, and surveyed the planets. But for all the progress, people still don’t know one another very well.
That brings about Theodore Zeldin’s “feast of conversation”－events where individuals pair with persons they don’t know for three hours of guided talk designed to get the past “Where are you from?”
Mr. Zeldin, an Oxford University professor, heads Oxford Muse, a 10-year-old foundation based on the idea that what people need is not more information, but more inspiration and encouragement.
The “feast” in London looks not at politics or events, but at how people have felt about work, relations among the sexes, hopes and fears, enemies and authority, the shape of their lives. The “menu of conversation” includes topics like “How have your priorities(優(yōu)先考慮的事) changed over the years?” Or, “What have you rebelled against the past?”
As participants gathered, Zeldin opened with a speech: that despite instant communications in a globalized age, issues of human heart remain. Many people are lonely, or in routines that discourage knowing the depth of one another. “We are trapped in shallow conversations and the whole point now is to think, which is sometimes painful,” he says. “But thinking interaction is what separates us from other species, except maybe dogs…who do have generations of human interactions.”
The main rules of the “feast”: Don’t pair with someone you know or ask questions you would not answer. The only awkward moment came when the multi-racial crowd of young adults to seniors, in sun hats, ties and dresses, looked to see whom they would be ‘intimate’ with for hours. But 15 minutes later, everyone was seated and talking, continuing full force until organizers interrupted them 180 minutes later.
“It’s encouraging to see the world is not just a place of oppression and distance from each other,” Zeldin summed up. “What we did is not ordinary, but it can’t be madder than the world already is.”
Some said they felt “l(fā)iberated” to talk on sensitive topics. Thirty-something Peter, from East London, said that “it might take weeks or months to get to the level of interaction we suddenly opened up.”
小題1:What can the “conversations” be best described as?
A．Deep and one-on-one.B．Sensitive and mad.
C．Instant and inspiring.D．Ordinary and encouraging.
小題2:In a “feast of conversations”, participants ______.
A．pair freely with anyone they like
B．have a guided talk for a set of period of time
C．a(chǎn)sk questions they themselves would not answer
D．wear clothes reflecting multi-racial features.
小題3:In paragraph 6, “they would be ‘intimate’” is closest in meaning to “______”.
A．they would have physical contactB．they would have in-depth talk
C．they would be close friendsD．they would exchange basic information
小題4:From the passage, we can conclude that what Zeldin does is ______.
A．a(chǎn)n attempt to promote thinking interaction
B．one of the maddest activities ever conducted
C．a(chǎn) try to liberate people from old-fashioned ideas
D．a(chǎn)n effort to give people a chance of talking freely

Mother’s Day is the time you say “thank you” to your mom. Stop shopping at the store. Flowers and other things in stores are too common to mention. You can choose a special gift for Mother’s Day! Just try staying close to home—and heart —write a Mother’s Day poem for her.
Use your head. Think of special moments when you were a child, times you’ve shared with your mom, things she did for you, and why you love her. Write down how those moments influenced you. Write down everything you can think of. This is your inspiration for the poem.
Look at what you wrote and pick out those things that are connected(有聯(lián)系的). See if any words rhyme(押韻). It’s fine to write a free poem(one without rhymes), but many people find poems with rhymes are easier to work with, easier to read and quite catchy(容易記住的). If no words rhyme but you want your poem to, try to find connecting words that can help connect memories.
Once you have a few sentences, put them in a good order. For example, you could start with a childhood memory and end with something you remember from last month.
Add a title that shows the feeling of the poem. Even something as simple as “For Mom” can work, although something more personal might be better.
Write it in pen if you have beautiful handwriting. Read the poem over breakfast on Mother’s Day, and then hand it to your mom. Let’s wait and see the smile and tears of happiness on her face.
小題1:Why does the author suggest writing down everything you think of?
A. Because it will show your mother’s love.
B. Because it will bring you inspiration.
C. Because it can be shared with others.
C. Because it can help answer questions.
小題2:It’s better to write a poem with rhymes because     .
A．it is easier to read and remember
B．it makes the poem more interesting
C．it shows the unforgettable moments
D．it shows how things are connected
小題3:The best title for the poem should be one that        .
A．can be read easily and quickly
B．includes a few sentences
C．has some special words.
D．shows the feeling of words.
小題4:The passage mainly tells us         .
A．what to do on Mother’s Day.
B．what to buy for Mother’s Day.
C．how to write a Mother’s Day poem.
D．how to write good poems for Christmas.

Flowers only bloom(開花) when they are planted in the right soil. That is also true for me.
I first moved to Foxboro, Massachusetts, as a single mother with my baby daughter, Darcy. I was drawn to its New England beauty, friendly people and rich history. It happened that there were a lot of forsythia(連翹) bushes around the house in which I lived just like my childhood home. I joined St. Mark’s Episcopal Church where I taught the Sunday school. At church, I met my second husband, Dean. For more than 25 years, I bloomed in Foxboro, and I had another two children.
Then, when Darcy was a few years out of college, she moved to Alameda, California, to be near friends. I missed her badly. A year later my beloved husband Dean had deadly cancer. He only made it eight months. My heart was broken. Later I moved to Alameda with my children. It was a beautiful Victorian island, and I was grateful to spend more time with Darcy. I even attended a church and made a few friends there. Still, I couldn’t help but miss Foxboro. It had everything and everyone I loved.
One spring day, when I was walking by a school, something yellow caught my eyes. Forsythia bushes! They made me homesick and I kept back my tears. “I miss you, Foxboro,” I whispered. Then I went into a shop and looked at some ceramic(陶瓷的) pots lined up on a shelf. A large white one seemed to catch my attention. “That’ll be perfect in my living room,” I thought.
I turned it over to look at the price. Instead I found these words: “New England Pottery, Foxboro, Massachusetts.” A piece of artwork, from my second hometown, was right here. It was able to spread across the country and so were forsythia bushes. I took it as a sign that I can bloom, right where I am.
小題1:From the text we learn that the author ____.
A．gave birth to three children in Foxboro
B．planted forsythia bushes around her house
C．got to know her second husband at church
D．worked as a middle school teacher in Foxboro
小題2:The author moved to Alameda so that she could ____.
A．have more time together with Darcy
B．forget the sorrow at her husband’s death
C．visit her children at Alameda College frequently
D．enjoy the beautiful scenery on the Victorian island
小題3:When the author saw forsythia bushes at a school she _____.
A．wanted to buy a ceramic pot to put them in
B．thought of her life in Foxboro
C．felt they would look great in her living room
D．believed they were real art work
小題4:Why does the author compare herself to flowers?
A．Because she wanted to show she likes flowers.
B．Because she can live in any place that is right like flowers.
C．Because she moved across the country just like flowers.
D．Because girls are like flowers that are blooming.

I never thought I would have a life-changing experience at Wal-Mart.
Although my thoughts were only on speed, the checkout line I was standing in wasn’t moving as quickly as I wanted, and I glanced toward the cashier. There stood a man in his seventies, wearing glasses and a nice smile. I thought, well, he’s an old guy!
For the next few minutes I watched him. He greeted every customer before scanning the items. Sure, his words were the usual, “How’s it going?” But he did something different—he actually listened to people. Then he would respond to what they had said and engage them in brief conversation.
I thought it was odd (古怪的). I have grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of robotic conversational habit. After a while, you don’t give any thought to the question and just say something back. I could say, “I just found out I have six months to live,” and someone would reply, “Have a great day!”
But that wasn’t the end. He gave them the change, walked around the counter, and extended his right hand in an act of friendship. He looked the customers in the eyes. “I sure want to thank you for shopping here today,” he told them. “You have a great day. Bye-bye.”
The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless. There were smiles and some sheepish grins (咧嘴一笑). All had been touched by his simple gesture—and in a place they never expected. They would gather their things and walk out, smiling.
Of course, he did the same to me and I got to know his name, Marty.
56. 小題1:The checkout line the writer was standing in moved slower than expected because ________.
