题目内容

The old man feels very _________because all his children have gone abroad and his wife _________ for almost two years.

   A. alone, has died                        B. lonely, died

C. lonely, has been dead                   D. alone, has been dead

 

【答案】

C

【解析】

试题分析:alone表示独自,一般用作副词;lonely表示孤独的,用作形容词;通过题干后半部分,我们可以推断,老人感到孤独,故用lonely;他的妻子死了几乎两年了,是说的死这种状态已经两年了,所以应该用现在完成时,而die是瞬间动词,不表示持续的动作故用be dead。所以本题选C。

考点:本题考查对alone和lonely的掌握情况以及现在完成时的用法。

点评:应该根据语境,并注意现在完成时中表示延续性动作的表达方法。

“Are you happy?” The simple question usually makes people confused (迷惑的). Even Mo Yan, who won a Nobel Prize, replied to it by saying, “I don’t know.”
When a migrant worker (农民工) was asked, “Are you happy? (Ni Xing Fu Ma?)” by a CCTV reporter, he looked confused before replying, “My family name is Zeng. (Wo Xing Zeng.)” This has become a joke. But his answer showed migrant workers and TV reporters live in different worlds and they cannot even communicate with each other.
Similarly, when asked, “Are you happy?” a 73-year-old man, collecting used plastic bottles in a street in Zhejiang, said, “The bottles can be sold for 0.1 yuan each.” Asked again, he said, “The government is good.” The reporter went on, “My question is ‘Are you happy?’” The old man answered, “My hearing is not good.”
The reporter probably tried to reach the same answer that the interviewees(被采访者) including the migrant worker and the old man are “happy”.
In fact, when the question is asked, we should learn about people’s true situation and their true wishes and opinions but their “Yes” or “No”.
Luckily, the government has paid more attention to the importance. Now there are many TV programs giving common people the chance to give their opinions.
“Everything we do is aimed at letting people live more happily.” At last year’s National People’s Congress (人大), Wen Jiabao said and agreed that increasing happiness would be a top aim for the 12th five-year plan.

Ma Yan is not really a writer, but this 15-year-old girl has written a book that has moved many people around the world. Ma Yan’s diary tells us about Ma’s life. She lives in a poor village called Zhangjiashu in Tongxin, Ningxia, and she has no money to go to school. However, she is brave and wants to go to school very much.

Her mother gave her diary to a reporter, Pierre Haski when he went to Zhangjiashu in 2001. Now, Ma Yan’s diary has been published in France, Italy, Germany, Japan and China.

Ma Yan is now a Junior Three student at Yuwang Middle School in Tongxin. Before this, she had to drop out of school twice.

With this money, she went back to school. The second time, her family told her she had to leave school while her two brothers could stay.
