题目内容
As a teacher, my daily activity involves driving to a new school almost every day.
On one particular day during my lunch break, I drove to a nearby square to get a coffee. Upon returning to the 36, I realized I had locked my phone and my 37 inside! I had about 15 minutes to get back to the 38. So I hurried into a McDonald’s in the same square, and asked the man at the counter, who happened to be the 39, to call a taxi for me. After I 40 explained my situation to him, he rushed inside to make the phone while I waited anxiously in the restaurant. I had less than 10 minutes to 41 to my school at this point.
A moment later, the manager returned only to tell me that the line was 42, and that he had not been able to 43 the taxi yet. I think both 44 and fear could be seen in my face.
Without a thought, he grabbed his coat and 45 to drive me to the school. Without hesitation, I followed him into his car and got back to the classroom with two minutes to 46 before the bell rang!
This experience made me 47 that out of every seemingly hopeless situation, there is the opportunity for acts of kindness to happen, which has an unimaginable influence on those who receive them.

【解析】
作者需要马上赶回学校上课，可是钥匙和手机被锁在车里了。作者让一个餐厅经理帮忙叫出租车，可是电话占线。那位经理直接开车把作者送到了学校。
1.考查名词。根据上句 I drove to a nearby square to get a coffee 可知，“我”开车去广场喝咖啡，所以此处是指“作者喝完咖啡后返回自己的车”。
2.考查名词。根据下文“作者请麦当劳的经理帮忙打电话叫一辆出租车”的事实可推测，作者把钥匙和手机都锁在车里了。
3.考查名词。作者是从学校来的，下午还要赶回学校上课，此时距离上课的时间还有15分钟。
4.考查名词。作者急忙来到同在这个广场的一家餐厅，请求柜台的一个人帮忙叫辆出租车。巧的是，那个人正好是经理。下一段中的 the manager 是提示信息。
5.考查副词。根据当时时间的紧迫可推断作者应是“简要地 (briefly)介绍了一下情况。
6.考查动词短语。下文的got back to the classroom 是提示
7.考查形容词。busy电话占线
8.考查动词。片刻之后，经理出来告诉作者出租车公司的电话“占线(busy)”，所以他没能“叫到(get)出租车”,only to do something,表示意外的结果。
9.考查名词。眼看已经快到上课的时间了，可是却叫不到出租车，由此可推断作者当时的心情是既失望又害怕。
10.考查动词。不假思索地，那位经理抓起了外套，主动提出要亲自驱车送“我”回学校。offer to do sth.主动提出做某事，下句中 followed him into his car 以及“顺利回到学校”的事实是提示。
11.考查动词。在离上课还有两分钟的时候，with two minutes to go“我”回到了教室. to go此处意为“剩下”
12.考查动词。空格后面的内容是作者在经历这件事情后的感悟，故选realize
优加精卷系列答案
How fit are you? Do you look after yourself? Do you eat healthily or do you eat anything you like? Premier League football club Aston Villa are encouraging their players and local children to eat healthy food. They know that what you eat is the key to success. A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.
A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.
There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two - headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, I must say so peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girl -friend.
No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was.
