解析:

26.be tired“劳累的”;根据上文语境中提到的slowly,carrying a big suitcase等等,这种情况产生的结果应该是tired。be hopeless“无希望的”;be lazy“懒的”;be anxious“焦急的”。答案为D。 

27.父亲没踩到楼梯,“没踩到楼梯”英语用missed a step。miss表“错过”。答案为C。 

28.由于父亲没踩到楼梯,摔了一跤,箱子滚下了楼梯。选项C干扰性比较大。dropping down(人)倒下,(风)突然停止。从情景上分析也可以排除选项C,当箱子落在楼梯上时,由于楼梯很窄,箱子会滚动下来。答案为A。 

29.从上文可知,父亲没踩到楼梯,箱子滚下了楼,父亲就会发脾气。所以还会有麻烦。虽然suffering(遭受),difficulty(困难),danger(危险)符合文段的气氛,但都有过分夸张,不能作为正确答案。C项表示“麻烦”。答案为C。 

30.look out小心。由于父亲没踩到楼梯,箱子滚下了楼,摔伤了腿,父亲的脸变红了。主人公知道无论什么时候父亲的脸变红,就要多加小心。A表示“继续”;C表示“坚持”;D表示“放弃”。答案为B。 

31. 从下文中的screaming(大叫大嚷)一词可以判断lead(引导)、help(帮助)和encourage(鼓励)都不是正确答案,而要选get。get后接动词不定式,使某人做什么。答案为D。 

32.主人公不知道如何才能使父亲在卸完车前不要冲着她大叫大嚷,在将与她一起上学的女孩子们面前使她出丑。答案为B。 

33.本题中的beginning有很大的干扰性,一些考生只注意到主人公在这篇短文中讲述了开学前她去学校的情景,产生了误解,而没有注意到大学需要三四年的时间,这些女孩将和主人公一同度过。the rest of the year的意思是这一年剩余的时间。答案为D。

34.A项表示“吃力地”;因为父亲摔伤了腿,所以走路十分吃力。B项表示“匆忙地”;C项表示“用坚定的步伐”;D表示“好奇”。答案为A。

35.由于上文中所述的事,主人公感到自己大学生活是一个坏的开头。答案为C。 

36.通读全文我们知道主人公是个大学新生,父亲正在带她到校报到,根据常识,他们首先应该赶快“找到”房间,不会搜寻(Search)或订(Book)房间;而Enter应该产生在“找到”之后,所以Find是正确答案。答案为B。 

37.but then again是一个固定词组,“另一方面”。由于主人公遇到了那么多的麻烦,她希望能尽快找到房间,把父亲安顿下来,但她又产生了另外的担心。A表示“事实上”;B表示“偶然地”;C表示“再一次”。答案为D。 

38.从下文中的提示the room wasn't empty at all可以看出,主人公担心的是Room 316里面没有椅子,是一个空房间。答案为B。 

39.Finally表示“最后;终于”。根据上文中所描述的一连串的事可以判断,最后终于找到了房间,主人公把钥匙插进了锁里。注意区分短语的意思:Meanwhile同时;Sooner or later迟早;At the moment在那时。答案为A。 

40.因为主人公用钥匙打开门,所以要把门推开。根据上下文,“knock,force,tried”与文章不符。答案为C。

41.still“还是,仍然”。这时,父亲仍在抱怨着。even强调作用,“甚至”;A表示“转折”;B项表示“仅仅”。答案为D。 

42.因为开头就不顺利,所以主人公所能期待的只能是更加糟糕的事。答案为A。 

43.但接下来发生的事出于主人公的意料之外,所以主人公感到吃惊。C项to one's surprise作状语,表“吃惊”。答案为C。 

44.短文中虽然没有直接说明Amy的身份,但从下文中的college一词可判断出主人公是去上大学,和她同屋的人自然是室友。答案为A。 

45.为了便于谈话,Amy把音乐关小。A表示“打开”;B表示“关小”;C表示“播放”;D表示“欣赏”。答案为B。 

46.从下面的对话“And of course,you're Mr Faber.”可知,Amy看着父亲。答案为A。 

47.  从上下文所讲述的Amy的热情态度,我们可以判断出Amy与主人公父女谈话的表情应该是微笑着。答案为C。 

48.因为Amy的和蔼可亲,使父亲的脸变得不那么红了。less red表比较“不那么红”,因为上文提到父亲。答案为C。 

49.故事发展到此,整个气氛已经有了根本的转变,而就是在这时主人公的想法也有了转变。本题的四个选项有三个表示时间:soon,later,then,前两个时间都表示将来,与故事的发展不符。then这时,there表示地点,而地点并没有发生变化。答案为D。

50.由于Amy对主人公父女的态度,使主人公感到自己能与Amy成为好朋友。答案为B。

Kilimanjaro Climb : a Rite of Passage for Father and Son
Climbing Kilimanjaro is a transformational experience for many people. The things that make the mountain hard are the very things that make it so powerful. In the case of my son Josh and I,the walk up Kilimanjaro proved a powerful symbol ofhis transition into manhood, and a great change in our relationship.
Day three on the mountain, Josh was hit with massive headaches. He told me every step felt like a nail driving into his head. And then, on the night we climbed the crater rim, less than 40 minutes from the summit, Josh fell. I was walking ahead, and did not even see it. He was so exhausted that he could not get up. He recalled our guides, debating whether or not they should take him straight down. Josh snapped out of it. He forced himself to his feet, shook the guides off. He set his face towards the peak and just kept marching. Near the summit he caught up with me and we reached the peak together.
“ I’ve never been in so much pain and so happy at the same time,,,he said, as we sat side by side on the frozen rock and looked down over Africa. “You know, in the past when we’d go on camping and rafting trips, you guided and took care of me through it all. But on Kilimanjaro it was different. From the bottom up, I climbed it. I never feltlike a kid, even when 1 was in pain. You never acted like a parent.”
“That’s not quite true,”I replied. “When you told me that on the summit you fell-and I did not even notice, my first thought was, ‘Oh my God! I’m such an awful parent!’ But then it hit me, ‘He got himself up. He walked to the peak on his own. He didn't need me to help.,”
I realized as I spoke that two people had died that night on Kilimanjaro. A child and a parent. It wasjust two friends who walked down the mountain together.

A. Josh felt quite good about his independence.
B. Josh appreciated his parents ,company and care.
C. The father felt guilty all the time.

The Great Barn Adventure

One morning when I was 11, I explored the town’s abandoned round grain barn(谷仓). I found a chained sliding door that was wide enough for me to pass through.

Inside, there was a heavy smell of dead mice in the dark. After my eyes adjusted, I noticed a shaft (升降机井) that rose all the way to the top of the barn. On one side was a one-man elevator with a long rope and roller.

I stepped onto the platform and gave the rope a drag and the elevator began sliding up the shaft, but stopped halfway. After a brief panic attack, I noticed holes in the wall at regular intervals, forming a ladder. For reasons known only to an 11-year-old, I decided it would be better to go up than down. So, with shaking hands, I began climbing the wall.

After what seemed like forever, I reached the top of the shaft. I stood up, dusted myself off and found absolutely nothing of interest. It was just an empty room with a ladder leading up to the roof. I climbed all the way up here for this? Then I noticed a fire extinguisher(灭火器),which I’d always wanted to shoot off. So this was the chance of a lifetime. I tried it, and, much to my surprise, the thing worked! It shot out a thick cloud of powder that instantly filled the room. I couldn’t breathe. I was going to choke to death, and they’d probably never even find my body.

Luckily, I remembered the ladder to the roof. I climbed up, popped the straw roof and saw a bright blue sky.

I suddenly realized the dust and powder pouring out of the top could draw attention. So when the dust had settled, I climbed down and slipped out of the chained door. I’m not sure if I was more excited about being alive or about not being caught, but I ran all the way back home.

1.When the author got inside the barn, he _______.

A. noticed a man on the elevator

B. opened the chained sliding door

C. saw many dead mice in the dark

D. found a shaft leading to the top

2.Which of the following is the right order of the author’s adventure?

A. b-a-c-d???????? B. a-c-b-d???????? C. c-a-d-b????? ????????????? ????????????? D. b-c-a-d

3.After getting out of the chained door, the author might feel _______.

A. inspired???????? B. relieved??????? C. surprised??????? ????????????? D. disappointed

4.From the passage, we can learn that the author was probably a boy full of _______.

A. passions????????????? ????????????? ? B. dreams????????????? ?????? C. curiosity????????????? ????????????? ????????????? D. imagination
