题目内容
8．-Did you have a good night's sleep，sir？-Oh，exactly．It was such a comfortable bed．I could never have ____ sleep．（ ）
| A． | a worse | B． | the best | C． | the worst | D． | a better |
分析 --先生，你晚上睡得好吗？--哦，确实如此．床是那么地舒服．我从来没有睡过这么好的觉．
解答 答案：D 本句采用了"否定词+…+a+形容词比较级+名词"的结构，表达最高级概念．从语义来看，说话人表示"从来没有睡得这么好"，可知A、C不正确，且never如果与B项的the best连用，则语义不合逻辑．故答案为D．
点评 考查习惯用法．形容词比较等级的考查除了上题中出现的否定词与比较级连用表达最高级概念之外，还有在比较级的前面用定冠词the表示"两者之中比较…的那一个"，等．

5．Dad had a green comb．He bought it when he married Mum．Every night，he would hand me his （26）comb and say，"Good girl，help Daddy clean it，OK？"
I was （27）pleasedto do it．At age five，this dull task brought me such （28）joy．I would excitedly turn the tap （29）on and brush the comb carefully．Satisfied that I'd done a good job，I would happily return the comb to Dad．He would （30）smileaffectionately at me and place the comb on his wallet．
Two years later，Dad started his own （31）business，which wasn't doing so well．That was when things started to （32）change．Dad didn't come home as early and as much as he used to．Mum and I became（33）madwith him for placing our family in trouble．With（34）time，an uncomfortable silence grew between us．
After my graduation，Dad's business was getting back on track．On my 28th birthday，Dad came home （35）early．As usually I helped him carry his bags into his study．When I turned to leave，he said，"Hey，would you help me （36）cleanmy comb？"I looked at him a while，then （37）tookthe comb and headed to the sink．
It hit me then：why，as a child，（38）helping Dad clean his comb was such a pleasure．That routine（习惯） meant Dad was home early to （39）spendthe evening with Mum and me．It （40）meant a happy and loving family．
I passed the clean comb back to Dad．He smiled at me and （41）carefullyplaced his comb on his wallet．But this time，I noticed something （42）different．Dad had aged．He had wrinkles next to his eyes when he smiled，（43）yethis smile was still as （44）heartwarming as before，the smile of a father who just wanted a good （45）life for his family．
