题目内容

11.The telephone base flashes,________ missed calls.(  )
A.to indicateB.indicating
C.indicatedD.having indicated

分析 电话底座闪烁,暗示有未接的电话.

解答 答案:B
根据indicate与"电话底座闪烁"之间构成逻辑上的主动关系,根据主被动可排除C(C为过去分词,表示被动);再根据动作发生的时间可排除A(A为不定式,一般表示将来)和D(D为现在分词的完成时,表示动作发生的时间早于主句动作发生的时间);然后选B.

点评 另外,解答本题时还要注意另外一个情况就是句中的标点也是参考依据,划线前只有一个逗号,我们知道,逗号是不能连接两个并列的谓语的,这就说明后面的内容要么是一个从句,要么是一个非谓语动词的形式.

6.Following Christmas dinner,my family was relaxing around the kitchen table.The good cooking smells still stayed.My sister,our chef,was enjoying the compliments.一"Delicious meal!""Everything was wonderful."Dad had risen from his chair and was contentedly standing nearby.
My nephew,never one to sit still for too long,began playing his new basketball around the table and throughout the kitchen.Upon nearing Dad,he stopped-almost uncertainly.With shaking,wrinkled hands,Dad had reached out for the ball.He did not speak,and the boy,confused,looked up and over at us.It took some convincing,but the ball was lightly passed over.
 I watched my father closely to see what he would do.A playful smile appeared on his face.Holding the ball and reaching forward,Dad bounced it on the floor then caught it.This action was repeated.Nodding approvingly,he then turned towards our assembled group.Gently throwing the ball away,Dad began a game of catch.
The ball continued to be passed though eager pairs of outstretched hands.Cries of"Over here!"rang through the warm kitchen.Dad's active participation in this game was remarkable to me,since he had advanced Alzheimer′s disease.This disease had robbed him of many memories and the recognition of people,places and points in time.
In my younger years,playing with Dad was rare.To his credit,Dad worked hard and provided for us.He was very private and never showed nor shared much emotion.His game of choice was chess,which he did eventually teach me how to play.As an adult,I had become a caregiver and watched helplessly as Dad declined.Connecting moments between father and son had been few and far before he took the basketball.
I'm not sure how long we played catch.What I do know is that our game ended all too soon,and it was time to face the reality of dirty dishes piled high on countertops.The moment,though,will certainly last forever.On this Christmas,Dad gave me a special memory-one that I will always treasure.

2.C
Diana Jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her 21-year-old twin sons:a combination of savings,income,scholarships,and a modest amount of borrowing.Then her husband lost his job,and the plan fell apart.
"I have two kids in college,and I want to say'come home,'but at the same time I want to provide them with a good education,"says Jacobs.
     The Jacobs family did work out a solution:They asked and received more aid from the schools,and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum amount through the federal loan (贷款) program.They will each graduate with $20,000 of debt,but at least they will be able to finish school.
     With unemployment rising,financial aid administrators expect to hear more families like the Jacobs.
     More students are applying for aid,and more families expect to need student loans.College administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid money to go around.
     At the same time,tuition (学费) continues to rise.A report from the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and fees increased 439% from 1982 to 2007,while average family income rose just 147%.Student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade.
"If we go on this way for another 25years,we won't have an affordable system of higher education,"says Patrick M.Callan,president of the center."The middle class families have been financing it through debt.They will send kids to college whatever it takes,even if that means a huge amount of debt."
     Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making them.The good news,however,is that federal loans account for about three quarters of student borrowing,and the government says that money will flow uninterrupted.

20.In winter Hammerfest is a thirty-hour ride by bus from Oslo,though why anyone would want to go there in winter is a question worth considering.It is on the edge of the world,the northernmost town in Europe,as far from London as London is from Tunis,a place of dark and cruel winters,where the sun sinks into the Arctic Ocean in November and does not rise again for ten weeks.
I wanted to see the Northern Lights.Also,I had long harboured a half-formed urge to experience what life was like in such a remote and forbidding place.Sitting at home in England with a glass of whisky and a book of maps,this had seemed an excellent idea.But now as I picked my way through the grey,late-December slush(融雪) of Oslo I was beginning to have my doubts.
Things had not started well.I had overslept at the hotel,missing breakfast,and had to leap into my clothes.I couldn't find a cab and had to drag my unreasonably overweighted bag eight blocks through slush to the central bus station.I had had huge difficulty persuading the staff at the Kreditkassen Bank on Karl Johans Gate to cash sufficient traveller's cheques to pay the overcharged 1,200-kroner bus fare-they simply could not be made to grasp that the William McGuire Bryson on my passport and the Bill Bryson on my traveller's cheques were both me-and now here I was arriving at the station two minutes before departure,breathless and steaming from the endless uphill exertion(费力)that is my life,and the girl at the ticket counter was telling me that she had no record of my reservation.
"This isn't happening,"I said."I'm still at home in England enjoying Christmas.Pass me a drop more port,will you,darling?"Actually,I said,"There must be some mistake.Please look again."
The girl studied the passenger list."No,Mr Bryson,your name is not here•"
But I could see it,even upside-down."There it is,second from the bottom二,
"No,"the girl decided,"that says Bemt Bjornson.That's a Norwegian name•"
"It doesn't say Bernt Bjornson.It says Bill Bryson.Look at the loop(圆圈) of the'y',the two‘I's.Miss,please."But she wouldn't have it."If I miss this bus when does the next one go?"
"Next week at the same time.,
Oh,splendid.
"Miss,believe me,it says Bill Bryson."
"No,it doesn't."
"Miss,look,I've come from England.I'm carrying some medicine that could save a child's
life."She didn't buy this."I want to see the manager."
"He's in Stavanger."
"Listen,I made a reservation by telephone.If I don't get on this bus I'm going to write a letter to your manager that will cast a shadow over your career prospects(前景)for the rest of this century."This clearly did not alarm her.Then it occurred to me."If this Bemt Bjornson doesn't show up,can I have his seat?"
"Sure."
Why don't I think of these things in the first place and save myself the suffering?"Thank you,"I said,and dragged my bag outside.
