解析试题分析：这篇文章讲述了一个老人照顾老伴的感人故事，告诉我们人生的真理：生活不是关于如何经历暴风雨，而是如何在雨中舞蹈。
【小题1】 seat关键名词就在后面 waiting room 。这个词break 有可能选，但是break之前一定要很紧张才行，这里老汉没有紧张。选C。
【小题2】护士对一个老汉能做的动作，最符合逻辑的是telling，告诉。 promising 表示许诺，有可能选，再看看宾语就可以排除，选D
【小题3】考查句型：It would be+一段时间+before…,要多长时间才…。选B。
【小题4】看动作的发出者，一个焦急的老汉会做的动作，肯定是look at 看手表这个选项。选C。
【小题5】从后面的句子：my patient didn’t _41___ at the appointed hour,可知是选D
【小题6】词组，表示“出现”的意思。这里要注意破折号表示解释说明，我不是很忙，为啥呢？因为我的病人在appointed hour 里面没有出现。show off 是“炫耀”的意思，选A
【小题7】need但是和后面的动词结合起来看就不难解决。B forget叫做忘记，他忘记了回去吃饭这样的事情，不算一个appointment。C agree to do同意做某件事情，
【小题8】考查上下文串联：名词找重复，这里重复在后面，刚做到的时候放一放，第五段的第一句出现了marriage,表示他们俩曾经有一段婚姻，那么选老婆这个选项，选B。
【小题9】she had been there 表示的是她已经在那个nursing home 里面有一段时间了， A late 要迟到的是老头子，不是他老婆。 B well 她老婆身体很健康 C 老婆曾经在他身边。选D。
【小题10】worried在这里抓住了“等待”这一点，就可以排除其他几个负态度的词。选B。
【小题11】这道题需要结合后文，比较容易，49空那句话给出了很好的对应。neither 这个选项，表示否定两者。选C
【小题12】recognize之前见过，现在认不出来，选A。
【小题13】他的那个问句：你知道她不认识你，还是每天早上要去陪她？这句话显然不是一个正面态度的体现，而真正的态度转正的地方在倒数第二段，他忍住泪水，所以这里不能选moved这个表示正面态度的词语。选C
【小题14】考查副词：still表示状态的持续， B选项then 表示时间先后C选项thus 表示因果选D
【小题15】考查名词：关键在前面的动词hold back忍住 忍回去，忍回去的只有泪水。选B tear
【小题16】realize表示主观意识到，又是一再强调的常考词。试卷中同时出现realize 和recognize，并且在不同选项中还是第一次，选A
【小题17】和love 相关的名词只有expression 表达，选B
【小题18】necessarily意思是必要地，一个副词的解决去看动词，这句话的意思是最幸福的人并不一定是一个拥有所有最好东西的人。选A
【小题19】考查动词和名词的搭配，固定词组，make the best of 充分利用，就是说他们可以没有最好的东西，但是他们把他们所拥有的东西，发挥到了极致。C选项favor 不能选，因为表示的意思是偏好，A和B 你喜欢哪个，有比较的时候才用favor，在这里没有比较爱人认得你还是不认得你，所以不选。选B
【小题20】名词辨析。A冒险；B美丽；C信任；D生活。生活不是关于如何经历暴风雨，而是如何在雨中舞蹈。选D。
考点：考查夹叙夹议类完型
点评：本文设空合理，主要考查考生在上下文语境中运用语法和词汇的能力，题目以词义辨析和上下文语境的考查最多，要求考生在平时对于词汇的意义的理解更为到位。
完形填空（每小题1.5分，共30分）
It was a normal summer night, humidity（潮湿）hung in the thick air. The only sound was my sister’s heavy __36__ from the bed next to me.
I couldn’t go to _37__, partly because of my cold and partly because of my __38__ for the next day. My mum had said that tomorrow was going to be a __39__ .
Sweat stuck to my aching body. Finally, I gathered enough __40__ to sit up. I looked out of my small window into the night. There was a big bright __41__ hanging in the sky, giving off a magic glow.
My sister turned over as though she was as light as air. Why could she sleep soundly? Why wasn’t she __42__ too? Did she know about tomorrow?
I couldn’t stand the __43__ anymore, so I did what I always do to make myself feel better. I went to the __44__ and picked up my toothbrush and toothpaste. Pouring the red paste onto the brush, I cleaned back and forth, up and down.
Then I walked downstairs to look for some __45__of movement, some life. Gladiator, my cat, __46__ me as he meowed（猫叫）his sad song. He was on the old orange couch （长沙发）, sitting up on his front legs, 47 something to happen. He looked at me as if to say, “I’m __48__, pet me. I need a good hug.” Even the couch begged me to sit on it.
In one movement I settled down onto the soft 49 . This couch represented my birth, my parents’ marriage, and hundreds of other little __50__.
As I held Gladiator, my heart started beating heavily. My mind was __51__ with questions: What’s life? Am I really alive? Are you listening to me? Every time I moved my hand down Gladiator’s body, I had a __52__ thought; each touch sang a different song.
I forgot all about the __53__ and the next day’s surprise. The __54__ was so full of warmth and silence that I sank into its arms. Falling asleep with the big cat in my arms, I felt all my worries __55__ move away.

Betty and Harold have been married for years .But one thing still puzzles (困扰) old Harold .How is it that he can leave Betty and her friend Joan sitting on the sofa ,talking ,go out to a ballgame ,come back three and a half hours later ,and they’re still sitting on the sofa ? Talking ?
What in the world ,Harold wonders ,do they have to talk about ?
Betty shrugs .Talk ? We’re friends .
Researching this matter called friendship ,psychologist Lillian Rubin spent two years interviewing more than two hundred women and men .No matter what their age ,their job ,their sex ,the results were completely clear :women have more friendships than men ,and the difference in the content and the quality of those friendships is “marked and unmistakable .”
More than two –thirds of the single men Rubin interviewed could not name a best friend. Those who could were likely to name a woman .Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend ,and almost always it was a woman .More married men than women named their wife/husband as a best friend ,most trusted person ,or the one they would turn to in time of emotional distress （感情危机）.“Most women ,”says Rubin ,“identified （认定） at least one ,usually more ,trusted friends to whom they could turn in a troubled moment ,and they spoke openly about the importance of these relationships in their lives .”
“In general,”writes Rubin in her new book ,“women’s friendships with each other rest on shared emotions and support ,but men’s relationships are marked by shared activities.” For the most part ,Rubin says ,interactions （交往）between men are emotionally controlled –a good fit with the social requirements of “manly behavior .”
“Even when a man is said to be a best friend ,”Rubin writes ,“the two share little about their innermost feelings .Whereas a woman’s closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage ,it wasn’t unusual to hear a man say he didn’t know his friend’s marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa .”
【小题1】What old Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that .
| A．he is treated as an outsider rather than a husband |
| B．women have so much to share |
| C．women show little interest in ballgames |
| D．he finds his wife difficult to talk to |
| A．a male friend | B．a female friend | C．her parents | D．her husband |
| A．Men keep their innermost feelings to themselves. |
| B．Women are more serious than men about marriage. |
| C．Men often take sudden action to end their marriage. |
| D．Women depend on others in making decisions. |
| A．happy and successful marriages |
| B．friendships of men and women |
| C．emotional problems in marriage |
| D．interactions between men and women . |
Every object tells a story. Even the most ordinary objects can present to us powerful images. Sometimes it is the ordinary nature of these objects that actually makes them so extraordinary. Such is the case with an old leather shoe in a museum in Alaska. At first glance it does not look like much. It is a woman’s shoe of a style popular in the 1890s. But what is unique(独特的) about this shoe is where it was found. It was discovered on the Checkout Pass, the famous trail used by the people seeking gold in Alaska. Who it belonged to or why it was left there is not known. Was it perhaps dropped by accident as the woman climbed up the 1500 stairs carved outface? Or did she throw away goods that she didn’t need in order to travel lighter?
Over 100, 000 people with “gold fever” made this trip hoping to become millionaires. Few of them understood that on their way they would have to cross a harsh wildness. Unprepared for such a dangerous journey, many died of starvation and exposure to the cold weather.
The Canadian government finally started requiring the gold seekers to bring one ton of supplies with them. This was thought to be enough for a person to survive for one year. They would carry their supplies in backpacks(背包) each weighing up to fifty pounds; it usually took at least 40 trips to get everything to the top and over the pass. Whoever dropped the shoe must have been a brave and determined woman. Perhaps she was successful and made it to Alaska. Perhaps she had to turn back in defeat. No one will ever know for sure, but what we do know is that she took part in one of the greatest adventures in the 19th century.

| A．it was an important clue to life in the past |

| B．brought with them many shoes |

| A．they would not die of hunger and cold |
| B．the army would have enough food for fighting a war |
| C．they would change these goods with the Eskimos |
| D．the supplies would make Alaska rich |
| A．she must have lived a happy life |
| B．she certainly dropped the shoe on purpose |
| C．her adventurous spirit is definitely admired |
| D．her other shoes were equally fashionable |
