Eighty-year-old retired tailor, James McKay, spent Saturday night in jail after 31 thirty-year-old Keith Smith over the head 32 his walking stick．McKay's wife, Laurence told us that while McKay is usually a 33  person, he had been 34 to this act of violence by getting wet just once too often．
Smith lives above the McKays and it appears that not only is he a keen gardener, he is also a 35 collector. Unfortunately for him, the water he sent over his balcony every day ended up on the McKay's, or too often, on the McKays 36 .
“For the last fortnight, since Smith moved into the flat above us, we have hardly dared to go to our37 ,” said Laurence．She added that it wasn't so much the water falling onto their balcony from Smith watering his plant 38  bothered them, it was more the way he cleaned his fish tanks．“We'd be 39 there happily reading our newspapers, when 40 so much water would come from above that we'd be as wet as if we'd 41 with our clothes on! Neither could we get rid of the 42 of fish!”
And on Saturday evening it was just too 43. “It was James's birthday,” explained Laurence, “and I'd made him a birthday cake．The candles were a great sight as you can imagine, but James didn't get to blow them out.” 44 , Smith emptied one of his larger tanks over his balcony and both the McKays and the cake were wet 45．Rarely had Laurence seen McKay move so fast．“I couldn't 46 him．He was up there in a flash．It was the fastest I'd seen him move since 1964.”
Smith is not going to take things further with the police．He has also promised to change his 47 from now on．And what of James McKay? 48 he left the police station, a large crowd of supporters sang him, “Happy Birthday”．“49 the most exciting birthday 50 !” said the cheerful old man．“The best since my adolescence I'd say!”

試題分析：解題導(dǎo)語：一位八十歲的退休老人在他過生日那天因用拐杖打一個(gè)三十歲男子的頭部而被判入獄，起因是他無法忍受對(duì)方長(zhǎng)期以來因侍弄植物和養(yǎng)魚而每天把水淋到他家的陽臺(tái)上，甚至淋透了夫婦兩人的衣服。事后，一大群支持者為他慶祝生日，老人感到無比幸福。

小題2:這位老人“用”拐棍打了對(duì)方的頭。此處表示的是用某種工具，所以用 with。 答案：B
小題3:James McKay 平常是一個(gè)非�！鞍察o的”人，做出這種舉動(dòng)實(shí)屬忍無可忍。 答案：C

小題6:每天 Keith Smith 家陽臺(tái)上的水都會(huì)流到 James McKay家的陽臺(tái)上，而且經(jīng)常流到夫婦兩個(gè)人的身上。此處的反身代詞themselves 指的是 James McKay 夫婦兩人。 答案：D
小題7:聯(lián)系上下文可知 James McKay 夫婦幾乎不敢去“陽臺(tái)”。下一句中的 balcony 也是線索提示。 答案：B
小題8:她補(bǔ)充說特別困擾他們的不是對(duì)方因給植物澆水而把水流到了他們的陽臺(tái)上。本句是強(qiáng)調(diào)句型，被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分是主語“the waterfalling onto their balcony from Smith watering his plant�！� 答案：C
小題9:他們正高興地“坐”著讀報(bào)紙時(shí)，突然被從上面陽臺(tái)上流下的水淋濕了。 答案：A

小題11:他們?nèi)矶紳裢噶�，仿佛是穿著衣服洗了一次“淋浴”�?答案：C
小題12:根據(jù)本段中間部分的內(nèi)容可知從上面流下的是 KeithSmith 清洗魚缸的水，所以他們無法去掉魚的“氣味”。 答案：D
小題13:星期六晚上簡(jiǎn)直太“過分”了。此處的 much 表示的是程度。 答案：D
小題14:James McKay 沒有把那些蠟燭吹滅，“相反”，發(fā)生了另外一件意想不到的事情。 答案：A
小題15:Keith Smith 在上面清洗其中一只比較大的魚缸，所以夫婦兩人和蛋糕都濕透了。wet through 表示“濕透”。 答案：C

A businessman lost his wallet. There was plenty of money in it. So he made a promise, "If someone finds my wallet and returns it to me, I'll give half the money to him."

閱讀下面短文，掌握其大意，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
There was a boy who was walking home from school when he saw a large, tempting (attracting) apple on one of the branches of an apple tree hanging out over a tall fence. The  boy wasn’t much of a fruit-eater, _36_ a bar of chocolate if given the choice, _37_, as they say, the forbidden fruit can be tempting. Seeing the apple, the boy wanted it. The more he looked at it, the _38_ he felt and the more he wanted that apple.
He stood on tiptoe, _39_as high as he could, but even at his tallest _40_he was unable to touch it. He began to _41_ up and down, as high as he could, at the _42_of each jump stretching his arms to get the apple. Still it remained out of _43_.
Not giving up, he thought, if only he had something to _44_on. His school bag wouldn’t give enough height and he didn’t want to _45_the things inside, like his lunch box, pencil box, pencil case, and Gameboy. Looking _46_, he hoped he might find an old box, a rock, or, _47_ luck, even a ladder, but it was a tidy neighborhood and there was nothing he could use.
He had tried everything he could think to do. _48_seeing any other choices, he gave up and started to walk_49_. At first, he felt angry and disappointed thinking about how hungry he had become from his _50_, and how he really wanted that apple. The more he _51_like this, the more unhappy he became.
_52_, the boy of our story was a pretty smart guy, even if he couldn’t get what he wanted. He started to say to himself, “This isn’t_53_.I don’t have the apple and I’m feeling sad as well. There is _54_ more I can do to get the apple— that is unchangeable —but we are supposed to be able to _55_our feelings. If that is the case, what can I do to feel better?

科目：高中英語 來源：不詳 題型：完形填空

When I was a baby, I entertained you and made you laugh. Whenever I was “bad”, you'd shake your finger at me and ask, “How could you?”--but then you'd give up, and roll me over for a belly scratch and I believed that life could not be any more perfect.
My housetraining was a long process, because you were terribly busy, but we worked on that together. We went for long walks, runs in the park and car rides. We stopped for ice cream. I took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day.
Gradually, you began spending more time at work and on your career, and more time searching for a human mate. Eventually, you fell in love. She, now your wife, is not a dog person, but I still welcomed her into our home. I was happy because you were happy. Then the human babies came along and I shared your excitement, I was fascinated by their pinkness, how they smelled, and I wanted to mother them too. Your wife was afraid I would bite them. But nevertheless, as they began to grow, I became their friend.
Now, you have a new job in another city and you and they will be moving to an apartment that does not allow pets. You've made the right decision for your “family”, but there was a time when I was your only family.
I was excited about the car ride until we arrived at the dog pound. It smelled of dogs and cats, of fear, of hopelessness. You filled out the paperwork and said, “I know you will find a good home for her.” They shrugged and gave you a pained look. The children were in tears as they waved me goodbye. And “How could you?” were the only three words that swept over my mind.
Is it better to live with hope or without hope? At first, whenever anyone passed my pen (圍欄), I rushed to the front, hoping it was you, that you had changed your mind and that this was all a bad dream.
My beloved master, I will think of you and wait for you forever. I hope you receive more faithfulness from your family than you showed to me.
