I learned early that crying out in disagreement could finish things. My older brothers and sister would sometimes come in from school and ________ a biscuit with butter or something.

這篇短文講述了作者小時(shí)候的經(jīng)歷，他從很小就學(xué)會(huì)了，如果想要什么東西，你就要大聲叫喊，發(fā)出你自己的聲音。

【1】句意：我總是大聲的哭，讓鄰居們以為她要?dú)⒘宋摇?/span>hope 希望；see 看到；think 認(rèn)為，想；understand理解。根據(jù)句意可知，作者的媽媽要打他的時(shí)候，他總是大聲的哭喊，目的是讓鄰居們以為他的媽媽要?dú)⒘怂�，故�?yīng)選C。

【2】句意：例如，如果她表現(xiàn)得好像要對(duì)我舉起她的手，我就會(huì)張開我的嘴巴，讓世界都知道。raise提高，抬起；show展示；pass通過(guò)；hold持有，控制；舉辦。根據(jù)上文My mother was the one who always beat me.可知，作者的媽媽總是打他，所以這里是媽媽抬起手想要打他的時(shí)候，故應(yīng)選A。

【3】句意：例如，如果她表現(xiàn)得好像要對(duì)我舉起她的手，我就會(huì)張開我的嘴巴，讓世界都知道。door 門；window 窗戶；eyes眼睛；mouth嘴。根據(jù)上文My mother was the one who always beat me. I always cried loudly to可知，媽媽在打他的時(shí)候，他會(huì)大聲地哭喊，所以這里應(yīng)該是張開嘴大喊，故選D。

【4】句意：如果有人正好在外面的路上經(jīng)過(guò)，她就會(huì)要么改變主意，要么就輕輕地打我?guī)紫隆?/span>he他；she 她；I 我；they他們。根據(jù)文意可知，這里作者說(shuō)的是他的媽媽打他，故應(yīng)用she代指my mother，選B。

【5】句意：現(xiàn)在想來(lái)，我確定就像我的父親支持我因?yàn)槲乙�比其他的孩子更加聰明一樣，我的媽媽因�(yàn)橄嗤�的理由吵我更多�?/span>happier 更開心的；luckier更幸運(yùn)的；brighter更明亮的，更聰明的；kinder更善良的。根據(jù)下文She was very bright herself可知，下面提到作者的媽媽就很聰明，所以這里是說(shuō)作者比家里的其他孩子更聰明，故應(yīng)選C。

【6】句意：現(xiàn)在想來(lái)，我確定就像我的父親支持我因?yàn)槲乙�比其他的孩子更加聰明一樣，我的媽媽因�(yàn)橄嗤�的理由吵我更多�?/span>right 正確的；wrong 錯(cuò)誤的；same相同的；different不同的。根據(jù)句意可知，作者的父親支持他和他的媽媽經(jīng)常打他，理由是一樣的，the same相同的，故應(yīng)選C。

【7】句意：她自己很聰明，但是她卻更無(wú)知的人。darker 更無(wú)知的；更黑暗的；cleverer 更聰明的；nearer更近的；older更老的。上句話She was very bright herself可知，作者的媽媽很聰明，后半句用了but表示轉(zhuǎn)折，故這里應(yīng)填的是與bright意思相反的詞，故選A。

【8】句意：我知道，我最大的哥哥Jimmy尤其是她的最愛。need 需要；love喜愛；kind善良的；種類；favorite最喜愛的。根據(jù)上文but she liked the ones…，提到媽媽喜歡…樣的人，而這里提到了作者的大哥，舉例告訴我們他的大哥就是他媽媽最喜歡的那種，故應(yīng)選D。

【9】句意：他不顧一切的走了，從沒(méi)有讓我有一種顏色上的優(yōu)越感。never 從不；often經(jīng)常；sometimes有時(shí)候；usually通常。根據(jù)文意作者的媽媽總是打他，所以作者的哥哥沒(méi)有讓作者有優(yōu)越感，故應(yīng)選A。

【10】句意：我的哥哥姐姐有時(shí)候放學(xué)回來(lái)，想要黃油餅干或者什么東西。put down 放下；ask for 要求，請(qǐng)求；look at看；sell out賣完。根據(jù)下文My mother impatiently(不耐煩地), would tell them no.可知，媽媽總是不耐煩的拒絕，所以這里是作者的哥哥姐姐想要…，故選B。

這篇短文中作者介紹了他小的時(shí)候的經(jīng)歷，并不受媽媽的喜愛，媽媽總是打他，這時(shí)候他總是大聲哭喊，讓別人都能聽到。所以作者從小就學(xué)會(huì)了如果你想得到某個(gè)東西，你就要發(fā)出自己的聲音。文章是記敘文，但在理解上有一定的難度，句式較長(zhǎng)，作者的寫作意圖、上下文的邏輯關(guān)系需要仔細(xì)辨別，從而尋找線索作答。題型是完型填空，考查學(xué)生們?cè)诰唧w語(yǔ)境中運(yùn)用語(yǔ)言的能力，綜合性較強(qiáng)，有一定的難度。做題時(shí)，應(yīng)先通讀短文，掌握大意；然后逐空做題，注意上下文的提示和空前后的搭配。先解決較容易的，使文章更加完整，脈絡(luò)更加清晰，這樣難題也可以迎刃而解。最后應(yīng)再讀一遍短文，檢查答案。例如第3小題，上文My mother was the one who always beat me. I always cried loudly to告訴我們，作者的媽媽總是打他，在這時(shí)候，他就會(huì)大聲地哭喊，所以這里應(yīng)該是張開嘴大喊，故選D。再如第7小題，上句話She was very bright herself可知，作者的媽媽很聰明，后半句用了but表示轉(zhuǎn)折，故這里應(yīng)填的是與bright意思相反的詞，故選A。
