Even though it was only October, my students were already whispering about Christmas plans. With each passing day everyone became more __21__ waiting for the final school bell. Upon its __22__ everyone would run for their coats and go home, everyone except David.

David was a small boy in ragged clothes. I had often __23__ what kind of home life David had, and what kind of mother could send her son to school dressed so __24__ for the cold winter months, without a coat, boots, or gloves. But something made David __25__. I can still remember he was always __26__ a smile and willing to help. He always __27__ after school to straighten chairs and mop the floor. We never talked much. He __28__ just simply smile and ask what else he could do, then thank me for letting him stay and slowly __29__ home.

Weeks passed and the __30__ over the coming Christmas grew into restlessness until the last day of __31__ before the holiday break. I smiled in __32__ as the last of them hurried out the door. Turning around I saw David __33__ standing by my desk.

“I have something for you,” he said and __34__ from behind his back a small box. __35__ it to me, he said anxiously, “Open it.” I took the box from him, thanked him and slowly unwrapped it. I lifted the lid and to my __36__ saw nothing. I looked at David’s smiling face and back into the box and said, “The box is nice, David, but it’s __37__.”

“Oh no it isn’t,” said David. “It’s full of love. My mum told me before she died that love was something you couldn’t see or touch unless you know it’s there.”

Tears filled my eyes __38__ I looked at the proud dirty face that I had rarely given __39__ to. After that Christmas, David and I became good friends and I never forgot the meaning __40__ the little empty box set on my desk.

[答案]

作者通过回忆一个学生送给自己一个盛满爱的盒子的故事来告诉我们:只要你心中有爱,爱就会无处不在。

21.A。考查形容词。每一天,学生们都急切地等着放学铃声的响起。anxious“渴望的,急切的”,符合语境。courageous“勇敢的,无畏的”;serious“严肃的”;cautious“小心的,谨慎的”。

22.B。考查动词。上句提到“等待放学铃响”,这里当然应是ringing,与bell对应。warn“警告”;call“叫,喊,打电话”;yell“叫喊,嚎叫”。故答案为B。

23.B。考查动词。由语境可知作者在此表示自己的迷惑和不解,即“我经常想知道他过着一种怎样的家庭生活”,用wonder表示“对……感到疑惑,想知道”。scold“指责,批评”;realize“意识到”;learn“学会,了解”,故答案为B。

24.D。考查副词。由空后的冬天没有大衣、靴子、手套可知,这里表示什么样的母亲能让儿子穿得如此不恰当地到学校。inappropriately“不适当,不合适地”符合语境。modestly“谨慎地,适当地”;naturally“天然地,表现自然地”;inaccurately“有错误地,不正确地”。

25.C。考查形容词。由上下文的转折关系可知这里意为“但是某些东西让David与众不同”。special“特殊的”符合语境。popular“受欢迎的”;upset“难过的”;funny“有趣的”。

26.C。考查动词搭配。wear a smile“面带笑容”,为固定搭配。express“表达”;deliver“交付,递送”;share“分享”。

27.D。考查动词。由语境可知,他常常放学以后“留在”教室里整理椅子并用拖把擦地板,故D项符合语境。practise“练习”;wander“漫游,徘徊”;study“学习”,都与语境不符。本段最后一句也有提示。

28.A。考查情态动词。would可以表示过去经常发生的或反复做的动作,符合句意。他常常只是笑笑,问还能做些什么。

29.D。考查动词短语。由语境可知他应是回家,故head for合适,意思是“朝……进发”。aim at“瞄准”;turn to“(把注意力等)转向,求助于”;put off“延期”。

30.B。考查名词。孩子们对即将到来的圣诞节的“兴奋感”一直持续到放假前的最后一天,excitement“兴奋”符合语境。argument“争论”;movement“运动”;judgment“判断”。

31.A。考查语境。根据句意和上下文可知此处说的是学生们假期前在“学校”的最后一天,故A合适。year“年”;education“教育”;program“程序,计划”。

32.A。考查名词和逻辑。当最后一个学生走出(教室)门时,我放松地笑了。故选A,in relief表示“放松”。in return“作为回报”;in vain“白费地,无用地”;in control“在控制之下”。

33.C。考查副词和语境。转过头,作者发现David站在桌子旁,而作者之前并没意识到David的存在,所以C项最为合适,表示“静静地”。weakly“软弱地,无力地”;sadly“悲哀地,令人惋惜地”;helplessly“无能为力地,无助地”。

34.D。考查动词。从句意可知,他从背后拿出了一个小盒子。search“搜查”;find“找到”;raise“提高,举起”;pull“把……拉(过来),把……扯(过来)”。显然只有D项符合句意。

35.B。考查动词。由语境可知,他应该是一边把盒子“递给”作者一边急切地说,故选B,hand...to...意思是“把……递给……”,符合语境。hold“抱”,send“送,寄,派”,leave“留下,遗留”,都与所给语境不符。

36.D。考查名词和语境。看到盒子里什么都没有,“我”当然应该是“惊讶”了,故D项surprise合适。to one’s surprise表示“令人惊讶的是”。delight“快乐,高兴”;expectation“预料,期望”;appreciation“欣赏,赞赏”。

37.B。考查形容词和语境。显然,“我”说的是“盒子很好,但它是空的”,也与上文的“saw nothing”相照应,故答案为B,empty表示“空的”。cheap“便宜的”;useless“无用的”;improper“不适当的”。文章最后一句也有提示。

38.A。考查连词。句意为“当我看着那张我很少给予关注的自豪的脏兮兮的小脸时,泪水充满了我的眼睛”。此处as引导时间状语从句,表示“当……时”。until表示动作一直持续到某个时间;because引导原因状语从句;though引导让步状语从句,与句意不符。

39.C。考查名词和搭配。由句意可知,作者在说自己原来很少关注他。give attention to“注意……,留心……”符合语境。advice“建议”;support“支持”;command“命令,指挥”。

40.B。考查介词。“我”永远忘不了隐藏在我桌子上的这个小空盒子背后的意思。behind“被……遮挡,隐藏在……后面;(喻)在……幕后,在……背后”,符合语境。
