试题分析:文章大意:极度干旱的季节,农田里的庄稼几乎就要干旱而死。在这个季节最炎热的一天,作者的儿子比利不顾炎热,一次次从家里取来水去拯救一只因干渴而即将死亡的小鹿。儿子的行为感动了作者,似乎也感动了老天,天终于下雨了,庄稼也有救了。

1.解析:从前面的the hottest days of the dry season可知,一个月没有下雨了。

2.解析:每天,我和我丈夫忙着浇地。go about 着手做,忙于某事;take over接管;try on试穿;seek out找出。

3.解析:除非我们看到下雨,否则我们就会失去一切。unless“除非”。

4.解析:从后文中儿子为小鹿送水,和小鹿一起分享水源,可以推测出用sharing。

5.解析:miracle“奇迹”;lesson“教训”;wildlife“野生动物”;virtue“美德”。从后文可知儿子用一点点的水救活了小鹿,并且天也下了雨,故是个奇迹。

6.解析:从后文的He was walking with effort可知,这里是他向树林走去。

7.解析:从后文知,这里他费力地走着,尽量身体不动。从后文可知,儿子去树林时,手里拿着水,因此走起来很小心,怕把水弄洒了。still“不动的”;silent“沉默的”;secret“秘密的”;sacred“神圣的”。

8.解析:前面说他向树林走去。这里说,几分钟后,他消失在树林里。

9.解析:前文说,儿子消失在树林里,又跑了回来,下文又说“我”去做三明治,显然认为儿子的任务已经完成。think“认为”;wonder“想知道”;worry“担心”。calculate计算。

10.解析:这里上下文构成转折关系,原以为儿子的任务完成了,没想到他又回到了树林里。故用however。

11.解析:最后我禁不住要跟着他。finally“最后,终于”。

12.解析:sign“迹象,符号”;scenery“景色”;sight“视野,视力”;scene“场面,场景”。我忍不住跟踪他并且目睹了令人惊讶的一幕。

13.解析:scream“尖叫”;rush“奔跑”;burst“爆发”。我差点尖叫着喊他离开。

14.解析:mildly“温顺地”;powerfully“强大有力地”;dangerously“危险地”;aggressively “有攻击性的”。这里指一只大鹿距他近得很危险。

15.解析:前文看出作者的担心,这里表示转折,但是当Billy跪下时那只鹿一动也没动。

16.解析:前文提到天气干旱无雨,后文也提到给小鹿喝水。这里的意思是“我看见一只小鹿躺在地上,显然是渴坏了”。

17.解析:从Billy ran back to get more.可知,这里是水喝光了。gone“没有了,喝光了”。只有当表示“丢失了”这个意思时,gone才可以相当于lost, missing。

18.解析:作者明白了一切。

19.解析:作者看到了善良的儿子挽救了一个生命。

20.解析:当我感动的眼泪落在地上时,天突然下起了雨,好像上帝感动得哭了。那场雨救了我们的农场就像一个小男孩救了另一个生命。weep哭泣;chant咏唱。

第一节:阅读下面短文并做每篇后面的题目。从A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。(本节有11小题;每小题2分,共22分)

A quarrel at home may result in you falling ill. Don’t laugh, it’s true. Family matters including living habits and even the way we speak have a big effect on our health, doctors say.

Wang Xiaoyu, a Senior 2 girl from Xichang, Sichuan Province, fainted (晕倒) in class when she heard her classmates quarrel at the top of their voices. Quarrels between her parents also put the girl into a coma. It is because she is suffering from depression (抑郁症), caused by bad relations at home, doctors explained.

“We don’t get sick or stay well by ourselves,” says Dr Robert Ferrer from the US. Ferrer shows that family forces may explain up to a quarter of health problems, in his recent research.

The genes you get from your family may cause illness. If one of your parents has a heart attack, your risk of being affected may double. But effects on health are not only written in our DNA.

Unrelated people who live under the same roof also get similar problems. Diet, lifestyle and environment affect our health, too. 

Ferrer’s research also found that if teenagers feel they are ignored or unimportant at home they are more likely to get sick.

We may never fully understand all the effects that families have on our health. But just as individual (个别的) problems can have effects on others, a small improvement can have big benefits, Ferrer said.

45. Which of the following can best explain why Wang Xiaoyu fainted in class?

A. Because her classmates often quarreled in class.

B. Because her parents used to quarrel.

C. Because of her depression caused by bad family relations.

D. Because her classmates shouted loudly at her.

46. According to Dr Ferrer, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. We get sick or stay well by ourselves.

B. Only the genes we get from our family have a big effect on our health.

C. Our health has nothing to do with diet, lifestyle and environment.

D. Teenagers who are ignored at home get sick more easily than those who are not.

47. The best title for this passage is ________.

A.  Family relations.                                  B. The reasons why we get sick.

C.  Happy family makes you healthy.            D. A research about teenagers’ health.
