       Later, when they left the house, the daughter said, “ Daddy, I saw your  27  in the windowpane (窗玻璃).You were sitting perfectly  28  .Why did you say….”

The father  29  , “What then would you  30  as the cause of its fall?”

       “ It fell by itself.The floor is uneven (不平).It wasn’t steady when Mr.Li put it there.”

       “It won’t  31  , girl.It sounds more  32   when I say I knocked it down.There are things people accept less the more you  33   them.The truer your story is, the less true it sounds.”

The daughter was  34  in silence for a while.Then she said, “ Can you  35   it only this way?”

16-35 BDDAB CDACB ACBCD ACADB


解析:

16.B。与37小题构成对应关系,相对于“客人”的“主人”应用host;master作“主人”讲时,强调具有“控制别人的能力”。

17.D。

18.D。 think of“想到某事”。know of知道某事的有关情况;remember“记起”是及物动词,其后不须接of,故不选。

19.A。联系上文,主人拿起热水瓶,故离开的时候是把热水瓶放在桌上,而不是“茶杯”或“盖子”或“茶”。

20.B。主人离开后,客人“仍然”坐在那里。enjoy表“喜欢做某事”,imagine“想象”,hate “憎恶”都与题意不符。

21.C。父亲正要端杯子喝茶,这时候传来“破裂声”,有东西打破了,crash即“爆裂声”,“撞击声”,noise指嗓音;此句并不是指某人来了,故不能选A或B

22.D。look over one’s shoulder指“某人转头看”。

23.A。女孩转头看,盯着破裂的热水瓶,watch指下意识的观察,不合题意。

24.C。从后句中可以看出,他们并没有碰开水瓶,而开水瓶破了,故是“奇怪的事”。

25.B。破的是热水瓶,因此应该是“冒蒸气的地板”。

26.A。父亲解释是因为自己“碰了”热水瓶所以它破了。因此用touch。

27.C。reflection指镜子中或静水中的“映像”,从前文中我们可以知道女孩在窗前看花,因而是从玻璃中看到了她父亲的“映像”,而不是“影子”。

28.B。坐着不动用still。

29.C。父亲和女儿对这一事件发生原因的不同看法,父亲从成人的观点出发,觉得自己承担责任更好,女儿认为不应说谎,父亲觉得女儿天真,所以“笑着说”即laughed。

30.D。

31.A。do与 will连用常表“合适的”“有用的”“行”。

32.C。指“可以接受的”。

33.A。父亲向女儿解释原因。

34.D。女儿“陷入了沉默”be lost in silence。

35.B。“只能这样解释吗?”

Are you still wishing your friends and partners “Happy New Year”? In the first few days of a new year, we say these three words countless times. The ___16___ is that we say them almost without thinking. The result of such a wish is that it ___17___ its meaning and power.
Last month, I ___18___ Dada J P Vaswani’s first speech after his return from the US. The ___19___ of his speech was “In 2012, all will be fine”. While sharing one of his many ___20___ ideas, he said that while “Happy New Year” is a nice greeting, there’s a more beautiful and encouraging way to ___21___ others—“Happy New You!”
Those three ___22___ words show that New Year is a time to leave behind our ___23___ and step forward. It’s the time to renew ourselves by getting rid of the negative things of the past — ___24___, pain and so on. It’s also the right time to give up thoughts of fear and failure.
For those who are ___25___ what to change, Dada has a simple suggestion: write down all the things that you don’t ___26___ about yourself… every single one. They could be small or big, easy or difficult — ___27___ write them all down. Putting them on ___28___ brings clearness of thought, which is the first step towards bringing about any change.
So this New Year, let’s wish each other “Happy New You” and then ___29___ that trend all through the year. Each time you wish others, you will be ___30___ not only them but also yourself to leave behind sadness and the past — because it’s time for being Happy and New.
