7.根据语境考查动词辨析。 由后文的from one car to another可知,他应该是从一辆车移动到(move)另一辆车。wander徘徊

8.考查动词辨析。 由already和a dozen or more cars可知,此处指他已经完成了(finish)了许多辆车。

9.考查动词辨析。 当我看着他工作的时候,几种想法在我的脑子里交替(cross)出现。slip滑 inspire 激励disturb 打扰

10.考查形容词辨析。 由前一句中he wasn’t well-dressed可知,他穿着简单。

11.考查上下文联系。 由本句中的the bycycle可知,现在的骑车人(cyclist)不想被看到骑他那样的自行车。

12.形容词辨析。 此句为上一句的转折句,再结合…working hard at his small business,…stopping to chat now and then…可推知他对自己的生活是感到满意的。

13.上下文联系。 由后文的语境“她时不时停下来和附近去市场的老人交谈”可知他应该是向路人招手(wave)。

14.考查介词辨析。  表示“和某人交谈”用chat with…

15.考查动词辨析。 由后文standing back to admire it;… standing back to see what they look like after the scrub.可知他擦完后还会往后站,看车子擦完后的样子,可推知他应该是对自己的工作感到自豪(pride)。

The 40  always started with questions about the package, but twenty minutes later we would still be 41   . We talked about our family, such as parents, our kids, 42  and so on.

By Christmas Eve we finally had to 44   the fact that the package was 45  lost. On Christmas morning, Cathy got on the phone with everyone in my 46   and told them what she had sent. Later on, after a big Christmas dinner, I had forgotten all about the 47  package when there was a knock on the door. Who could it be at such a time? As I 48  the door, a man was standing there. “I 49    this is yours.” he said, holding a package. Just then I 50  that it had been delivered to the wrong address. “I just got home from vacation,” he explained, “51 I wanted you to have this in time to open for Christmas.” I thanked this 52  stranger for taking so much trouble to 53 this gift to us on Christmas Day, and 54 thanked God that the package had been lost in the first place.
The real gift that holiday season was the new 55  to my sister who lives far away from us. Now there’s one gift I never want to give back!

Family members become closer during such a trip, therefore make sure to bring every family member with you — needless to say, your pet dog as well. Enjoy the fresh air and beautiful sunshine with your pet and you will feel much closer to it.

If you have decided to take your dog on a self-driving holiday, a full and detailed preparation is needed.

When reaching the destination, dogs need comfortable and cozy places to rest, but they are sometimes banned from some hotels and restaurants. Therefore it is of great importance to make sure the place you are going is dog-friendly.

Dogs like Golden Retrievers, Schnauzers, Labradors and Cocker Spaniels are quite lively and outgoing in nature so are suitable for a trip. But some canines are not, such as those which are too young or too old.The old dog lets you know quickly about being uncomfortable with unfamiliar circumstances, while the young ones are easy to get hurt.

Many people wrongly believe that holiday trips are beneficial to animals, strengthening their ability to deal with strange environments. But experts say that it’s not as effective as they think and the ability to adapt to different environments needs to be trained into the dogs before they come across such challenges. A sudden trip can be too much of a burden for many dogs which will feel stressed and scared.Only those more naturally friendly dogs will feel happy on a trip with owners by their side.

Special attention should be paid to animal insurance because in a strange environment dogs can be easily frightened by other animals and run away. Keeping them well tied up is advisable.

Another important point that requires your attention is the possibility of attacks by other dogs in rural areas where immunity(免疫力) from disease cannot be guaranteed.

64.The underlined word “canines ” in Para.4 refers to ________.

A.destinations             B.dogs         C.  hotels and restaurants            D.people

65.People should pay special attention to animal insurance because ________.

    A.there are too many young dogs

    B.dogs have the ability to adapt to new environments

    C.  dogs are easily attacked by other dogs in rural areas

    D.dogs are easily afraid of other animals and run away in a strange place

66.The main reason why people bring their dogs on holiday is that ________.

    A.they are not safe at home    

B.they are members of the family

    C.  their dogs can learn a lot outside

    D.people can build a better relationship with them

67.What’s the best title of the passage?

    A.Bring Your Pet on Holiday            B.Take Care of Your Pet

    C.  A Special Member of the Family   D.Animal Insurance
