I stood by my window overlooking the ___38___, having nothing better to do. But as it turned out, I was soon to learn about something ___39___ in life.

As I watched several people go by, get into their cars and go off, I ___40___ an old man on a bicycle with a bucket on its ___41___ and a basket rags and bottles on its back-carriage. He ___42___ from one car to another, washing and cleaning them. From the water on the ground, it seemed that he had already ___43___ washing and cleaning about a dozen or more cars. He must have begun to work quite early in the morning.

Several thoughts ___44___my mind as I watched him work. He wasn’t well-dressed. He had on a pair of shorts and a(n) ___45___ T-shirt. The bicycle he rode was not by any means the kind modern ___46___would want to be seen riding on. But he seemed___47___ with life. There he was, working hard at his small business, ___48___ at passers-by and stopping to chat now and then ___49___ elderly men and women on their way to the market nearby.

There was a noticeable touch of___50___ in the way he seemed to be doing things— ___51___the windscreen (挡风玻璃), then standing back to admire it; scrubbing (擦净) the wheels and ___52___, standing back to see what they look like after the scrub.

It was a ___53___ to learn, I felt. At no age need one have to beg for a ___54___if one has good health and is willing to work hard. For a while I felt ___55__ of myself.

【解析】

试题分析: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。

1.这里要注意Mother这个身份,,父母是允许自己的孩子不上学的假日里多睡觉的, sleep in睡个懒觉.

2.前面是谈自己会好好利用一下母亲的许可:睡个懒觉,后面又是在谈自己想早起,中间是明显的转折。

3.此题可以从下午的提示“several people go by, get into their car and drive off”可以得知:是停车的地方。

4.此题是主题设空,从后面的作者体会可以看出是对自己的生活有用的一些东西。区别比较各选择,本题难度不大。

5.前面的动词“watched”是提示,这里表示注意到。

6.这里考察了一个自行车上的部分名称,从本句的后面back-carriage可以看出前面是在谈车子的前面部分,handle 把手。

7.从后面的清洗车辆可以看出,是在一辆辆车之间移动。

8.此题要注意前后的提示:“already”和“a dozen or more cars”,所以这里表示老人工作时间早,已经清洗了很多车子了。

9.这里是一个固定的表示方式:cross one's `mind (of thoughts, etc) come into one's mind (指想法等)出现, 掠过:,slip one mind:忘记,其他选项明显错误。

10.这里是考察对老人形象的判断,前面谈到he wasn`t well-dressed,从后面的自行车描述可以看出,老人是一个朴素之人。

11.从后面的riding on 可以得知是骑自行的人。

12.but是表示转折,前面提到他的穿着和所骑的车子都不时尚,后面又提到和他自己时而不时的和路人闲聊可以看出他自己是对这一切都是满意的,老人的精神世界很丰富,be content with对……满意。

13.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。

14.这里考察动词chat与介词的搭配,chat with sb.与某人闲聊。

15.从后面的解释语句:洗完后总要站在一旁看看,可以看出老人对所做之事是自豪的,这样才会去欣赏自己的事。

16.后面的scrubbing是一个提示,这里和52空的两个并列句都是句式结构相同,这样的考查也是完型填空的一个固定设题。

17.对应上一个分句中的then,这里是表示重复一个相同动作。

18.这里是作者在发表感叹:这是要学习的一课。

19.beg for a living乞讨为生,这里是指老人虽然清贫,但是自己能自食其力,身体健康而且乐于工作,所以没有必要去乞讨。

20.对比老人的勤劳,自己这时感到我跟老人相比觉得自己的生活不够积极,有点羞愧。

考点:日常生活类—夹斜夹议

点评: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。

My sister, Cathy, who lives in Vancouver, sent me a package full of Christmas gifts. She told me that she had 36   it in advance to make sure it would arrive at my house weeks before the 37 .

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. Of course we also talked about our jobs. We had never made so much 43  for each other! The talk always took us back to the hours we spend together in our childhood.
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
