解答 41-45DABCA 46-50BACAD 51-55BCABD 56-60CDBDC
41.D;考查连词,根据后面的other things可知,这里表示转折关系,故用However.
42.A;考查名词,draw my attention的意思是"吸引我的注意力",即当我长成少年,其他一些事情吸引了我的注意力.
43.B;考查句意,根据第二段第二句话中的friends可知答案.
44.C;考查动词,devote…to是固定搭配,意思是"投入…做某事",即我为什么要花费整个星期日和他骑车啊.
45.A;考查形容词,当我表现出冷漠时,父亲也不吱声.keep silent"保持沉默".
46.B;考查句意关系,in case意思是"以防(万一)".当他计划自行车旅行的时候总会让我知道,万一我也想去.
47.A;考查固定搭配,(be) in low spirits是固定短语,意思是"情绪低落".由空后"我的两个朋友去看电影却没叫我"可知答案.
48.C;考查动词,分析句意为"父亲进了我的房间",故用动词entered.
49.A;考查动词,根据前面内容可知,此处指父亲问我是否去骑车,故用ride.
50.D;考查动词,因为我情绪低落,因此父亲跟我说话时,我不耐烦地喊道(shouted):"让我一个人呆着."
51.B;考查名词,根据第二段第一句话It was a Sunday morning可知,这时候是早晨,故答案为B.
52.C;考查非谓语动词,警察打电话通知(inform)我们,说父亲出了交通事故.其他几项不合题意. convince表示"说服";remind"提醒";phone"打电话",与前面的called重复.
53.A;考查副词,eventually最后;generally一般地;strictly严格地;broadly概括地.根据语意"几天后父亲才最终开口说话"可知,A项正确.
54.B;考查形容词,分析句意为"我轻轻地抓住父亲的手,害怕弄疼他",故答案为afraid.
