10、ine的原词复现。2. D 考查语境化选词。由该段最后一句话“The young man had died while rushing a fellow soldier to a doctor.”可以看出,这里表达的意思是:有一年,随着冬天的来临,战争吞没了整个国家,小伙子离开家乡到前线报效国家。所以选war,意思是:战争。3. C 考查动词辨析。这里指的是年轻人参军保卫国家,所以选serve。Serve the country意为:报效祖国。save 挽救;help帮住;build建设。4. A 考查形容词辨析。下一句告诉我们,这位父亲在等待更多的关于儿子的消息,担心再也见不到自己的儿子,由
11、此可以看出,电报上只是说儿子失踪了,所以选missing,意为:失踪的。5. B 考查副词辨析。收到了儿子在战场上市总的电报,害怕再也见不到儿子,在等待更多消息的心情应该是不安的,所以选B。calmly 冷静地;quietly 安静的; secretly秘密地。6. A 考查动词辨析。7 空前有该词的名词形式复现。句意见4题。7. D 考查动词辨析。 由下一句可以看出,他所担心的事情真的发生了,也就是说他的儿子真的牺牲了。所以选D,意为:(得到)证实。complete 完成; double 加倍; remove移动开除。8. C 考查形容词辨析。儿子去世了,父亲感到很孤独,所以选lonely,
12、意为:孤独的。A项的干扰性很大,但是该词意为:不安的,和and前的upset意思是上重复。9. 考查形容词。上一句中有选项的名词形式sadness复现。语境为:圣诞节的上午,敲门声唤醒了这位(因失去儿子)伤心的老人。10. B考查语境化选词。由他自我介绍中的“I was the one he was 12 when he died”可以看出,这位来客就是老人的儿子牺牲时救的那个人,在结合第二段的“The young man had died while rushing a fellow soldier to a doctor.”可以看出,他也是一位士兵。故选soldier。13空后也有原词复现
13、。11. D 考查名词。能够舍身相救,四个选项中只有friend符合语境。12. A 考查动词。由第二段的最后一句话可知答案。rescue挽救。13. C 考查动词。由语境以及下文的told可以看出,这两个人进行了一些谈话,所以选talk。14. B 考查语境化选词。对应第一段的“a passion for art collecting”,所以悬念love。句意为:战士告诉老人,他儿子生前告诉大家他非常热爱艺术品,更不用说他的父亲了。15. A 考查名词。好的艺术作品都是艺术家创作的,而战士带来的礼物是战士自己画的,所以他要表达的意思是:我知道你很喜欢艺术珍品,我肃然不是艺术家,但是我画了一副
14、您儿子的肖像,送给您。所以选artist。16. B 考查副词。尽管这幅画画的不是多么好(也就是文章所表达的:世界上绝对不会有人认为这是一位天才画家的作品),但是却细致的勾画出了小伙子的面部特征。所以选never。17. C 考查固定搭配。in detail,为固定搭配,意为:详细地。18. A 考查动词。收到了别人精心准备的礼物,自然应该感谢,所以选thank。19. C 考查动词短语辨析。push aside “把向旁边推”。语境为:老人把以前收藏的价值连城的艺术品放到了一边,而把儿子的画像挂到了最显眼的位置。其他各词都能和push搭配,但不符合语境。20. C 考查语境化选词。这里指的就
15、是老人收到的礼物,也就是战士送的画像,所以选gift。阅读理解AWhen 47yearold volunteer Susan Boyle stepped onto the stage of Britains Got Talent and announced she was unemployed, had never been married and “never been kissed, actually”, few in the audience would have wondered why.
