试题分析:本文叙述了一对年轻的夫妇结婚后,经常争吵,妻子想要与丈夫分手的事。丈夫问妻子怎样做才能改变她的主意。妻子让丈夫去把长在悬崖上的花采来,就改变主意。可是,那样做,丈夫会送命的。丈夫考虑了一晚,决定留着自己有用之躯继续帮助妻子解决生活中遇到的难题。其实生活中的平淡的小事就是爱情,鲜花和浪漫时刻只在表面关系时存在。
1.C but但是(表转折关系);and 而且(表示递进关系);while当……时候(表示时间),尽管(表示让
步关系) ;so所以(表示结果)。空格前romantic at first浪漫,空格后problems, quarrels问题,争吵,前后
2.C lonely 孤独的,寂寞的;dead致命的,死的; worn out疲倦的,厌烦的;awesome令人敬
畏的,使人畏惧的。心的。根据前文两个人争吵,妻子想break up分手,说明她厌倦了。句意:她回答道,
“我感到厌烦了”。
3.B space 空间; thought 思想,思考;sorrow悲痛,悔恨,惋惜,伤心事shade 树荫,阴影;
anger生气,愤怒。印象。后文的finally he asked说明他先思考,然后回答,in deep thought“沉思”。句
意:他整晚保持沉默,似乎在沉思。
4.B speak 说话,演讲;change 改变;blow 风吹;keep 保持。根据后文的妻子说I will change my
mind. 我会改变主意。所以此处的句意为丈夫问:“我该怎样做才能改变你的主意?”
5.D represent呈现,赠送;expand 扩张;admit 承认;convince说服,使信服。根据后文的I will change my mind. 妻子要改变主意,需要丈夫做的事能够说服她。句意:如果你能说服我的心,我将会改变我的想法。
6.D growing 生长; grow作为“种植”才是及物动词,因此这儿用“grown=planted”(被种植的),显然不符合句意,故排除AC项; living 生活,居住。后文的on the face of a mountain cliff,说明那种花长在悬崖峭壁上。句意:我想要一朵长在悬崖峭壁上的花。
7.D death死亡。injury受伤;hurt损害,使受伤,使伤心,使受皮肉之苦;wound伤,伤害。根据前文那种花长在悬崖峭壁上,去采摘它,可能会丧命。句意:我们都确信采摘花朵将会导致你的死亡。
8.B agreement协议,同意;answer 回答,答案;deccision决定;opinion观点;choice选择。前文妻子说“Answer my question.(回答我的问题)”,所以此处应是丈夫给出答复。句意:他说:“明天我会给你答复的”。
9.D write写;inform通知,告诉;prints 印刷,出版;go去,说;根据前文的a piece of paper on her
bed她的床上有一张纸,纸上写着内容,which引导定语从句,代指先行词paper,而write,inform是人

床上看到一张纸,纸上写着……。
10.C reasons原因,理由;回答,答复;messages 信息,留言;purposes目的。根据后文丈夫说留着自己的命来帮助妻子解决生活的难题,这是他不去悬崖上摘那朵花的原因。句意:亲爱的,我不愿意为你去悬崖上摘那朵花,原因是.……。
11.D mess up 陷入困境,搞糟;run out用完,耗尽;put up 举起,建造,张贴;use up 用完,耗尽;根据后文I can help to restore我可以帮你修复,可知妻子把软件弄乱了。句意:当你使用电脑你总是搞砸了软件时,你在屏幕前面哭泣面。
12.B repair修理;restore储存,恢复,修复;fix安装,固定,修理;mend修理。根据前文的the computer ,the software,可知丈夫要修复程序。restore the program “修复程序”,电脑中固定术语。句意:我不得不留着我的指甲为你修复电脑程序。
13.A legs腿;patience耐心;energy精力,能量;strength力气,力量。根据前文“save my fingers
留着我的指甲”,可知这儿是“留着我的腿”句意:因此我必须留着我的腿冲回家为你开门。
14.D 大的;new 新的;modern 现代的;strange陌生的,奇怪的。按常识,在陌生的城市旅游才会迷路的。新城市不一定就是陌生的城市,所以“new”用在这儿不准确。句意:你喜欢旅游,但是在陌生的城市里你总是迷路。
15.D glance一瞥;look看看;glare怒目而视; stare凝视,盯着看。 根据后文的do nothing good
for your eyes对你的眼睛不好,可知她盯着电脑看的时间长。句意:你总是盯着电脑,那样对你的眼睛不
好。
16.C。as if 仿佛,好像;now that 既然,由于;so that以便;in case万一。后文的help to clip your nails 帮助你剪指甲,是前文留着眼睛的目的。句意:我必须保留好我的眼睛以便于我们老的时候,我能帮你剪指甲。
17.A annoying 讨厌的;emerging出现的;rough粗糙的,崎岖不平的,粗鲁的,狂暴的;refreshing使人精神焕发的,提神的,使人耳目一新的。修饰后文的white hairs,前文的remove提示长了白发要拔掉,可知白发是令人讨厌的。句意:我帮你拔掉令人讨厌的白发。
18.C although尽管;even if即使;unless如果不;if如果。后文的 I could not pick that flower yet,我不去摘悬崖上的花,不去死,是因为没有比我更爱你了。句意:除非我相信有人比我更爱你。
19.B friction摩擦,冲突;love 爱情,爱;couple双,配偶,夫妻power 力量,权力;根据后文的the pillar of true love stands真爱的支柱,以及全文围绕那对夫妻的爱情生活。句意:这就是生活,这就是爱。
20.A surface表面;way方法;principle 原理,原则;nature自然,本性。后文的Under all this,在这一切之下,对应的是在这一切的表面。句意:鲜花、浪漫时刻只在建立表层关系时加以利用和出现。

“Racism (种族歧视) is a grown-up disease,” declares the saying on Ruby Bridge’s website along with a photo of Mrs. Bridge today, a 6-year-old girl four decades ago. In the photo, she is walking up the steps of the William Frantz Public School in New Orleans, a little black girl accompanied by two officers who protect her on her way to school.
Her name then was Ruby Nell. It was Nov. 14, 1960. She was the first black child to enroll at this all-white elementary school according to the court order to desegregate in New Orleans schools. Her story is moving -- she was a very courageous child -- and remains a significant proof against intolerance (不宽容) of all kinds. Ruby’s photo brings out another powerful image on her website: Norman Rockwells symbolic painting for Look magazine on Jan. 14, 1964, “The Problem We All Live With.”
Rockwell was an illustrator of exceptional skill and charm. He produced a vast number of unforgettable images over a long career, many of them involving children. His American kids are innocent and appealing, but often, at the same time, decidedly naughty. His method was to photograph his models, and the resulting paintings were photographic. But it is revealing to see how the artist slightly changed facial expressions from photo to oil painting in order to make his paintings communicate with the viewer. Communication, even persuasion, lay at the back of his work; this was art for effect.
“The Problem We All Live With” belongs to Rockwell’s later work, when he began openly showing his strong belief in liberty. This is a highly persuasive image. Before he arrived at the final copy, one sketch (草图) shows the little girl closer to the two officers following her than to those in front. In the finished picture, the girl seems more determined, independent, and untouched. The unfriendly tomatoes thrown on the wall are behind her now, and she, is completely unaffected.
