After the birth of my second child, I got a job at a restaurant. Having worked with an experienced 1 for a few days, I was 2 to wait tables on my own. All went 3 that first week. When Saturday night came, I was luckily 4 the tables not far from the kitchen. 5 , I still felt a little hard to carry the heavy trays (托盘)。
Before I knew it, the 6 was full of people. I moved slowly, 7 every step. I remember how 8 I was when I saw the tray stand near the tables, it looked different from the one I was 9 on. It had nice handles (手柄),which made it 10 to move around. I was pleased with everything and began to 11 I was a natural at this job.
Then, an old man came to me and said, “Excuse me, dear, my wife and I loved __12 you work. It seems your tray stand has been very 13 to you, but we are getting ready to 14 now, and my wife needs her 15 back.”
At first his 16 did not get across. “What was he talking about!” Then I got it. I had set my trays on his wife’s orthopedic walker (助步器). I stood frozen as ice, but my face was 17 . I wanted to get into a hole and 18 .
Since then, I have learned from many mistakes such as the one I just 19 , I have learned to be more 20 and not to be too sure of myself.

解析【小题1】前文说在饭店找到一份工作,后文出现了carry the heavy trays (托盘),可以可知“我”是在和有经验的服务员一起干。
【小题2】该句前面提到跟随一位有经验的服务员干了几天,所以就允许自己独自为顾客服务了。其它几个动词不符合语境意思。
【小题3】从下文来看,周日那几天All went well that first week.“一切都很顺利。”只是在周末出了一点小状况。
【小题4】题意是“周六晚上,我有幸被给机会在离厨房不远的一张桌子边服务。”所以应用give,其它几个动词不合题意。
【小题5】从下文的I still felt a little hard可知尽管我给了这样一个机会,但感到有点困难,语意转折了,故用however然而。therefore因此;otherwise否则;finally最后,这几个词不合语意。
【小题6】既然是在饭店里当服务员,自然是饭店挤满了顾客,不会在其它地方挤满顾客。
【小题7】前文提到饭店里挤满了顾客,所以自己要慢慢移动步子,“留意,当心”每一步。mind有“注意,留心”之意。其余几个不合语意。
【小题8】从空后的内容可知,当时看到的托盘与培训的不一样,有一个漂亮的手柄,很好使,所以感到很高兴。
【小题9】fix安装;train接受训练;load装载;wait等候。正式上岗前要经过学习培训,所以答案应为选项B。
【小题10】正式的托盘与训练的不一样,很容易转动,故选D项。
【小题11】前文说自己对店里的东西一切都很满意,所以相信自己能自然而然地干好自己的工作,故选A项。
【小题12】句意是“我和妻子爱看你工作。”其它三个是使役动词,意为“让,使”,不合语意。
【小题13】useful有用的;familiar熟悉的;unusual不普通的;interesting有趣的。句意是“好像你的托盘对你很有用。”
【小题14】题意是“我们(就餐完了)要离开了。”故选D项。
【小题15】该句前部分出现了tray stand可知他们是想拿回“我”误拿的托盘(助步器的托盘)。
【小题16】idea想法;praise称赞,表扬;message信息;need需要的东西。题意是“起初我没有明白他表达的意思。”故正确答案为选项C。
【小题17】cold冷;full of joy高兴;pale苍白的;on fire着火。题意是“我像冰人一样站在那儿傻眼了,(因为做错了事)脸变得通红,像着了火一样。
【小题18】从该句前部分I wanted to get into a hole可知自己当时因遇而真想找个洞藏起来,故选B项。其余选项与语意不符。
【小题19】repeat重说;discover发现;correct改正;describe。纵观全文,作者在描述她以前亲身经历的尴尬的事情,故选D。
【小题20】从作者所描述的内容可知,她的那次失误是因为自己不仔细造成的,所以她要从错误中吸取教训,认真做事,不要对自己太自信。故选A,其它选项不合语意。
阅读下面短文,撑握其大意,然后从36~55各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D),选出最佳选项。
I had my first job at the age of thirteen, when a friend of my mother’s who owned a bookshop _36 me for six hours a week to help her in the shop. I was very 37 to earn my own pocket money and my parents 38 interfered(干涉) with how I spent it, even when I was spending it 39 . They believed that by earning money, spending it, and learning from the 40 , I would become more mature(成熟) and 41 about how to handle work, relationships with others, and money.
Like many 42 parents, my parents also let me and my brothers do things over which they 43 a great deal. When I was sixteen, for example, after I finished high school and before I entered university, I wanted to spend the summer months traveling around 44 . My mother was against the idea of my traveling alone at such a young age, but my father felt that it would be a great 45 for me. In the end, my father won the 46 on the condition that I limited my traveling to France, my mother’s home, where I had many uncles, aunts and cousins 47 through the country who could 48 shelter and help if I need them.
Three years later, my younger brother decide to 49 a year off after his first year in university and travel through the United States and the Caribbean. Again my mother was very worried and not 50 to see my brother leave school, but my father encouraged him and my brother had a(n) 51 year working his way on trains and ships to 52 passage to different ports and cities, and discovering many fascinating places and people.
These kinds of experiences are probably rare(稀少的) for children in many countries but in the US they are fairly 53 . Most parents start 54 their children at a young age to do small things by themselves. By the time they have finished high school, many American kids have already had part-time jobs, traveled around the US or other countries on their own, have 55 the university they plan to attend and maybe even decided on their future career, and so on.
