  Courageously he went on alone because he needed to know 36 : “Is my boy 37 or he is dead?” He dug for eight hours … 12 hours…36 hours…then , in  38  hour , he pulled back a large stone and heard his son’s 39 . He screamed his son’s name, “ARMAND!” He heard back, “Dad!?! It’s me, Dad! I told other kids not to worry.  I told them that if you were alive, you 40 me and 41 you saved me, they’d be saved.

【解析】

试题分析：

【小题1】            分词考察： only to do sth.“结果却，不料”，作结果状语，表示该结果在主语的预料之外；如：He hurried to the station, only to find his friend picked up by others. 现在分词作结果状语，表示由主句所产生的逻辑上的结果。如：His father died, making his family worse-off.  realize在脑海里经过思维“认识到，了解”；find在表面上就能“发现， 看出”。

【小题2】           词语辨析考察：这四个选项都是英语成语，根据本段第一句an 8.2 earthquake almost flattened America判断，选择A项, “像煎饼一样扁平”。

【小题3】           上下文逻辑考察：从意义上判断，“他想起了他曾对他儿子许下的诺言”；memorized是“背诵，熟记”。

【小题4】           句子结构考察：从结构上分析，该句是省略了谓语动词的省略句，省略谓语之后，意义仍然清楚，如不省略动词，则使用第三人称单数happens。从意义上分析，可排除C、D项。

【小题5】           词语辨析考察：表示“流泪”，这几个动词都可能表示这种意义，但句式搭配不同，其表现形式分别为Tears fill his eyes；Tears come into his eyes；He bursts into tears。

【小题6】           上下文逻辑考察：从上下文意义判断，“他不停地想起他对他儿子许下的诺言”。

【小题7】           词语辨析考察：动词和动词短语是完形填空设项的重点之一。此题要分清这四项的不同含义。dig及物动词，“掘（土），挖”；dig through“（为找……）在……里挖掘”；dig out “发掘出”  dig into“钻研”。

【小题8】            句子结构考察：从结构上分析，应该用现在分词作伴随状语，用and则表示并列，用said。

【小题9】            动词短语辨析考察：Come out出现；出版；结果是；Come again回来；重新赶上去； Come on表示劝说，不耐烦，意为“得啦！，来！”，可用Come, Come,代替；Come off举行，成功；表现；脱离

【小题10】       词义辨析考察： 从词义上判断one line“一句话（台词）”，A项中的one word干扰性较大，它表示“一个词”，如用words 是正确的。

【小题11】        介词短语辨析考察：“介词+反身代词”有固定含义，for oneself独自地，亲自；by oneself单独地；of oneself自行地，自动地；to oneself 对（着）自己。

【小题12】       词义辨析考察：这四个词都有“活着的”之意，live仅用作定语，作表语用living ，alive 。living和alive在意义上有细微差别，living可作定语和表语，含有“本以为死了，然而还活着”，又如：I can’t believe my first teacher is still living。alive作表语和后置定语，其含义与dead相对应。lively“生动的，活跃的”。

【小题13】        数词考察：“在第38小时的时候，……”，序数词之前要用定冠词。

【小题14】        词义辨析考察：注意这四个词的区别：sound “（各种）声音” ；voice “（人们说话的）嗓音” noise“（不悦耳的）嘈音”；tone“（人们说话的）语气，语调”。

【小题15】        句式结构考察：这是表将来的虚拟语气，主句中用would +动词原形，从下文的句子中也能找到类似的句子。

【小题16】        上下文逻辑考察：从意义上判断，“如果你来救我，他们也会得救。”是条件状语从句，应该用if 引导，然而选项中没有if，when与if同义，引导条件状语从句。even if 引导让步状语从句。

【小题17】        词语搭配考察：此题包含一个固定句型：There are … Left/remaining. “还有……剩余下来”。

【小题18】        数词表达考察：14 …out of 33 意为：33人中有14人活下来。out of “从……里面”。特别注意此题中的介词与前面的left没有任何联系。如果没有意识到这点，极可能会选错。

【小题19】       上下文逻辑考察：从意义上判断，“房屋倒塌时，自然形成的三角空隙”。而make room; make space 意为“（有意识地）为（某人，某物）……腾出空间”。make room for me,please.

【小题20】       上下文逻辑考察：从上下文意义判断，此句为原因状语从句。 No matter what happens, I know you’ll always be there for me!不管发生什么事，我知道你总会在我身边。

考点：主要涉及考点上下文逻辑，词义辨析和句式结构。
