分析 本文講述了2006年作者在威尼斯旅游時,在一家咖啡屋里所見的一幕:有一位衣衫襤褸的老太太在街上跪著行乞,一群群的游客路過而沒停下來幫助她,一位背包旅游者,故意在游客路過時,在他們面前給那位乞丐錢,接著后面的游客也開始陸陸續(xù)續(xù)地給錢了.

解答 36.C 考查名詞辨析和上下文串聯(lián).A 時間; B 努力;C零錢;D 獎賞.上文提到的是乞丐熟悉的語言,下文又提到乞丐,所以他們行乞主要是想得到money,所以與錢有關(guān)的單詞就是change.故C正確.
37.B 考查名詞辨析.A 滿意; B 罪過; C 生氣;D 愉快.作者如果路過的話不給一兩個硬幣就會覺得有一種負(fù)罪感.故選B項.
38.D 考查名詞辨析和上下文串聯(lián).A演講;B 報告;C 學(xué)習(xí);D 旅游.根據(jù)常識:威尼斯是個著名的旅游城市,同時根據(jù)下文:A tourist group hurried along the street;Another group of tourists"中提到旅游者們,可以推斷作者來這里也是旅游.故D正確.
39.B 考查上下文串聯(lián).上文提到乞丐說行乞的話以及下文該婦女跪著行乞,可知是正在乞討.故B正確.
40.C 考查名詞辨析和上下文串聯(lián).A 乘客;B 顧客; C 游客; D 外國人.根據(jù)下文第四段第一句"A tourist group hurried along thestreet,""Anothergroup of tourists arrived,"及最后一句"other tourists followed."可知講的是 游客川流不息.故C正確.
41.C 考查動詞辨析和上下文串聯(lián).A 忽視; B 服務(wù); C 觀察; D 跟隨.根據(jù)第四段第三句"The backpacker watched."可知背包者觀察著乞丐和旅行者們路過時而開始幫助那位婦女乞丐.故選C正確.
42.A 考查名詞辨析.A 防備,抵御;B 預(yù)防,阻止; C準(zhǔn)備;D 提交.句意:乞丐她毫無表情頭觸地跪著,一破爛的毯子幾乎無法抵御寒冷.因為后面的against,故A正確.
43.B 考查形容詞辨析.A 令人恐懼的; B 感人的; C 迷人的; D 有趣的.句意:當(dāng)把這場景與乞丐周圍城市的標(biāo)志比較時,這場景是特別的令人同情.故此空填"令人同情的;感人的"選B正確.
44.C 考查上下文串聯(lián). A 平靜的,和平的;B 嘈雜的; C 富有的,D 原始的,落后的.根據(jù)上下文可知:女乞丐在吸引很多游客的威尼斯行乞,與城市富有的生活跡象形成鮮明對比.故C正確.
45.A 考查動詞辨析.A 一瞥;B 嘲笑; C 叫喊; D 盯著.句意:一群 游客匆忙地沿著街道行走,一瞥那女乞丐,并繼續(xù)行走.下一句又提到:另一群 游客走過她旁邊.可見路人只是看她一眼.故A 正確.
46.C 考查連接詞辨析. A 除非 否則; B 因此; C 但是; D 或者.根據(jù)本段第一、二句"一群 游客匆忙地沿著街道行走,一瞥那女乞丐,并繼續(xù)行走.然而另一群游客走過她旁邊.",作者以為另一群 游客會看,可是他們也繼續(xù)行走.表示轉(zhuǎn)折.故C 正確.
47.B 考查動詞短語辨析.A 向四周看; B 向前走; C 環(huán)繞; D 破門而入.句意:那時,作者準(zhǔn)備離開,就停下來看到背包者向前走去.下文又提到:背包者過去把錢放進杯子里.可知選B正確.
48.C 考查副詞辨析和上下文串聯(lián).A秘密地; B 粗心地; C蓄意;有意地,D 渴望地.根據(jù)下文:就在另一個旅游團到來之前,所以是有意地,選C正確.
49.D 考查連接詞辨析. A 自從…;B 在…之前; C 在…之后; D 由于.句意:因為另一群人的領(lǐng)隊停下來,把一些錢在杯子里,緊跟的同一群人里就放錢,因此表示原因,故D正確.
50.A 考查動詞辨析. A 帶領(lǐng); B 推; C 丟失; D 指.句意:在年輕人的帶領(lǐng)下,with+賓語+賓補,是背包者發(fā)出show的動作,故A正確.
51.D 考查上下文串聯(lián).A 停止; B 重視; C 制作; D 重復(fù).根據(jù)上下文:背包者同一動作做了幾次,所以D 正確.
52.C 考查動詞辨析和上下文串聯(lián).A 移動; B 答復(fù); C 起作用; D 搬.句意:來自同伴的微妙的壓力在游客們身上起作用了.從本句的后半部分"who all added coins to the cup."可知游客們受同伴的影響,也給那女的錢.work在這里是"起作用"的意思.故C 正確.
53.A 考查動詞辨析.A幫助; B 重要; C 數(shù)數(shù),重要; D 改善,提高.語境:那背包者重復(fù)給錢的動作做完了之后,走到那女乞丐面前說道,"我希望那會幫助許多.".故A正確.
54.B 考查動詞辨析和上下文串聯(lián).A 取消; B 繼續(xù); C 開始; D 耽誤.語境:看到剛才的一幕,我也給那女的一些錢,然后繼續(xù)我的旅行,從后面"light-hearted after witnessing sucha 55  act of caring."看出作者做了好事感覺一身輕松.應(yīng)該是繼續(xù)旅行.故B正確.
55.B 考查形容詞辨析. A 有趣的; B 明智的; C 簡單的; D 謙虛的.作者目睹了這樣幫助人的行為而感到那是一種明智的關(guān)心行為,故B正確.

點評 完形填空考查學(xué)生綜合運用語言的能力.做題時,要先通讀全文,掌握大意,然后結(jié)合選項,仔細(xì)閱讀文章,選擇最適合語境的詞,注意上下文的呼應(yīng)及語境.

1.Bethany Meilani Hamilton was born on February 8,1990Kauai,Hawaii,where she grew up with two older brothers.Hamilton's parents were both surfers and they started teaching Bethany how to surf at a young age,and she learned quickly with the support of her brothers.By age 8,Bethany was winning first place in surfing contests for her age group.Hamilton began competing more seriously at the age of nine,winning several more competitions in her age group.
On October 31,2003,while surfing with friends near Tunnels Beach,a 14-foot tiger shark attacked her.Bethany said,"My arm was hanging in the water,and it just came and bit me.It kind of pulled me back and forth.But I just held onto my board and then the shark let go."The shark tore off Bethany's left arm just below her shoulder.Hamilton's friends rushed her to the hospital.Bethany made it through several surgeries without infection (感染),and miraculously survived even though she had lost almost 60% of her blood.The doctor said that her athletic training helped her to survive the attack and blood loss.
While she was healing,Bethany thought for a while that she might not surf again.She was concerned that it would be much harder to stand up on the board using only one hand and that her balance would be completely off.But with hard work and determination she returned to surfing.She says,"It's hard for me to describe the joy I felt after I stood up and rode a wave in for the first time after the attack.I was greatly thankful and happy inside.The tiny bit of doubt that would sometimes tell me'you'll never surf again'was gone in one wave!"
As for fear of another shark attack,Bethany says that sometimes her heart pounds when she sees a shadow (陰影) under the water.But she believes that faith provides hope and a future for those who feel down and defeated in their lives.
Bethany's popularity and hope for the future led her to partner with World Vision to create"Surfing for Children in Crisis".Bethany hopes that her involvement in the campaign will help provide disabled children from around the world with care,support,and hope.
40.Who taught Bethany surfing when she was very young?B
A.Her brothers
B.Her parents
C.Her friend
D.Her doctor.
41.Why does Bethany's heart pound when she sees a shadow under the water?B
A.She hopes she can swim down to see the shark.
B.She is afraid another shark might attack her.
C.She is worried she might get out of control.
D.She thinks she can enjoy a bigger wave.
42.From the passage,we know Bethany is aC person.
A.careful        B.proud            C.brave         D.clever
43.This passage probably comes from a (an)C.
A.guide       B.novel           C.magazine    D.a(chǎn)dvertisement.
