That holiday morning I didn’t have to attend school. Usually, on holidays, Mother 26 me to sleep in. And I would certainly take full advantage of it. __27_ , on this special morning, I felt like getting up early.
I stood by my window overlooking(眺望,俯视) the _28_, having nothing better to do. But as it turned out, I was soon to learn about something _29_ in life.
As I watched several people go by, get into their cars and drive off, I 30 an old man on a bicycle with a bucket(水桶) _31_ on its handle(把手) and pieces of old and used cloth in a basket and bottles on its back-carriage(后座). He 32 from one car to another, washing and cleaning them. From the water on the ground, it seemed that he had already 33 washing and cleaning about a dozen or more cars. He must have begun to work quite early in the morning.
Several thoughts 34 my mind as I watched him work. He wasn’t well-dressed. He had on a pair of shorts and a(n) 35 T-shirt. The bicycle he rode was not by any means the kind modern 36 would want to be seen riding on. But he seemed 37 with life. There he was, working hard at his small business, 38 passers-by(过路人) and stopping to have a free talk now and then 39 elderly men and women on their way to the market nearby.
There was a noticeable sense of 40 in the way he seemed to be doing things— 41 the windscreen (挡风玻璃), then standing back to look at it proudly; scrubbing (擦净) the wheels and 42 , standing back to see what they look like after the scrub.
It was a 43 to learn, I felt. One doesn’t have to beg for a 44 at any age if one is in good health and willing to work hard. For a while I felt 45 of myself. Though I am young —just sixteen, and there was this old man before me who must have got up very early and been busy working so hard and actively.

【文章大意】一个假日的早上,作者偶然的早起,发现了对自己的人生有益的事——一个衣着朴素,骑着一辆不入时的自行车的老者,在自食其力,而且对自己的所做非常自豪。这一刻,作者感觉自己羞愧了,因为他自己还没有认识到过生活的真谛。整个完形填空大题,设空科学合理,考生不难从中领会大意,从而下手会比较顺利,整篇难度与去年几乎持平,比较适中。从选项中可以看出,本大题主要还是考查了词汇的辨析与运用,但更加注重综合语言能力的运用,需要根据故事情节,了解词汇用法的同时,结合语境,做出准确的判断。

38.【答案】A
【试题解析】这里要注意连词and所表示的平行关系,后面动词是停下来闲聊,那么前面的动词不能仅表示look,因为他当时是在洗车,不可能洗车而视线在别的地方,这里应该是表示有时候他朝路人招手示意,还会有闲聊。

It was 4 o’clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.
“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 1 in with severe burns on his face, neck and arms. We’ve called for a (n) 2 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.”
Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was 3 .
The doctor described the accident, which caused the burns. At 6 am, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers. When they 4 the charcoal (木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed (喷洒) too much gasoline (petrol). The flames 5 my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to his head.
6 , one of the boys was quick-minded, grasped my son, and rolled him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was not in 7 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars (伤疤). So, he had to return to college with scars.
When I was a child, my mother told my sister, who had a 10-inch, very 8 scar on her arm. “Ann, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It doesn’t mean they won’t 9 it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.”
I 10 this wisdom (智慧) on to my son. He took my advice to 11 and returned to school with his head held high — glad he was alive.
By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not matter, so he made the 12 to give up any plastic surgery (外科手术).
We all have “scars” that 13 people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better.
But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same 14 standards(标准). Put your imperfections out of your 15 and concentrate (集中) on what you value within yourself, and your beauty will shine through.
