题目内容
11.Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.(在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其内容通顺,首字母已给,每格限填一词):(共14分)When I came out of my office,it was dark.In order to get home as soon as possible,I took a taxi.The car was flying along the road,but later it was in a traffic jam in darkness.I (86)broke the silence for fear that the driver might be too tired to drive."When do you go back home in the evenings?"
"Nine o'clock.I'll go home after this (87)trip."
"Then when do you come out in the mornings?"I threw out another question.
"Nine o'clock,too.And I go home for lunch and dinner,just as if I worked at an office."His words (88)surprised me,because every time I ride in a taxi,what I hear from the driver is only complaints.They complain that they have to work from morning till night,that it is hard to earn money,that they are bullied(欺负.by the police,or that the leaders enjoy the fruits of their work.It (89)seems they are not satisfied with everything.But this driver told me,"I find it tiring to be a section chief as I was before.I don't like management work.I like driving,just out of pleasure.It's lucky that I (90)seldom drive without a passenger.So I can earn three or four thousand yuan a month easily.Any trick?Yes,I never follow an (91)emptytaxi.If it goes southward,I go northward.If it goes along the highway,I turn into a narrow street.In this way I always get customers."
His words showed his satisfaction with his life and the pride he took in his job.Such feelings are so rare among people nowadays just as oxygen in high mountains.How many people nowadays can show high ideals(理想;完美.by (92)simple living and go with a calm mind?I couldn't help feeling moved when I found such a state of mind in a stranger on a cold winter night.
分析 文章大意:本文讲述了一位出租车司机对待生活良好的心态,他享受自己的工作并总是能搭上乘客,他对生活感到满足并为自己的工作自豪.
解答 86.broke 考查动词与对语境的理解.由下文的害怕这个司机很累不能好好开车和他们的对话可知,我是打破了沉默,用break表示打破,由全文可知时态是一般过去时,填break的过去式即可.
87.trip 考查名词与对语境的理解.结合语境可知此处表示在这次行程后我就会回家了,结合首字母可知用trip表示行程.
88.surprised 考查动词与对语境的理解.结合语境可各有此处表示他的话使我感到吃惊,因为我每次坐出租车,我从司机那听到的只有抱怨,用surprise表示使…吃惊,结合全文可知时态是一般过去时,填它的过去式即可.
89.seems 考查动词与对语境的理解.结合语境和首字母此处表示似乎他们对什么事都不满意,用seem表示似乎,且此处的they指的是上文提到的because every time I ride in a taxi,what I hear from the driver is only complaints中的the driver,所以时态要与其保持一致,要用一般现在时,主语it是第三人称单数,所以填它的第三人称单数形式.
90.seldom 考查副词与对语境的理解.由下文的I always get customers可知此处表示几乎不会没有乘客,用seldom表示几乎不.
91.empty 考查形容词与对语境的理解.由上文的我几乎不会没有乘客和下文的这样我总是能有乘客可知,此处表示我从不跟着一辆空车(因为跟着空车走能搭上乘客的几率更小),用empty表示空的.
