I had said goodbye to my husband, Joe, so often, but this time was      .
We now had our first child. After nights of talks, we made the difficult       that Joe would go by himself to Alabama for the six-month training course, and I would stay behind with our new son. It was important that I      my teaching position（職位）near our home at Fort Hood. Also we were part of a strong network of friends whom I could turn to for help.
On Joe's       evening at home, I bathed little Joey, got him into his sleeper and was heading to the bedroom when Joe gently touched         on the shoulder. Lifting the baby from my arms, he said he wanted to put Joey to bed tonight.
They headed down the hall, and I busied myself with meaningless tasks,      Joe to appear from the bedroom within a few minutes. A half hour went by, and still he had not come back. Thinking he was having       getting our son to fall asleep, I walked quietly to the baby's room and looked into the dimly-lit（燈光暗淡的）room.
Sitting in the rocking chair, moving slowly back and forth, was my husband with tears（眼淚）in his eyes. He was holding our baby in his arms      he had fallen asleep long before. When his pained eyes met mine, he said, "I just can't put him down."
That night we stood over Joey's bed, holding each other and saying over and over that we would make it through this leaving and be        again soon.
Joey is six now, and he has a four-year-old brother named Jack. There have been many goodbyes since that night, yet my soldier still fights back tears when it's time to        once again in service to his country and give his boys that last, long hug（擁抱）goodbye.

試題分析：這是一個充滿溫情的故事。丈夫要外出參加一個為期六個月的培訓，留下妻子和剛出生的兒子。在丈夫走的前一晚上，他想親自哄自己的孩子睡覺，但卻很長時間沒回來。妻子很好奇，去孩子的房間找他，卻看到了丈夫抱著已經(jīng)睡著的孩子，舍不得放下。面對著夫妻、父子的分離，我們看到了一個丈夫?qū)⒆拥膼�，很溫馨�?br />小題1:考查形容詞及語境理解。句意：我要和我的丈夫喬說再見了，這是很經(jīng)常的事，但這一次有所不同。Dangerous危險的； different 不同的；impossible不可能的； terrible糟糕的。由下文知喬要離開一段時間，所以這次說的再見與以往說的再見是不一樣的。故選B。
小題2:考查名詞及語境理解。句意：經(jīng)過幾個晚上的談話，我們最終做出了艱難的決定。 Promise承諾；wish希望；suggestion建議；decision決定。 make a decision做決定，故選D。
小題3:考查動詞及語境理解。句意：我保留家附近的教師職位是重要的。 Miss想念； keep 保留；get得到；accept接受。 It is important that從句中用虛擬語氣，從句中謂語動詞用原形。此處是說丈夫要外出，妻子要在家保留住教師的職位，不能和丈夫同去。故選B。
小題4:考查形容詞及語境理解。句意：在喬走之前的那個晚上。 first 第一，從下文知喬還沒有走，誰也不對； next 下一個； other 其他的，不合句意。last最后的，最后一個晚上，即喬走之前的那個晚上。故選D。
小題5:考查代詞及語境理解。句意：喬溫柔的撫摩著我的肩膀。Us我們； them他們；me我；her她。根據(jù)文意，喬應該撫摸的是自己的妻子，及作者“我”，而不是我們、他們和她，故選C。
小題6:考查動詞及語境理解。句意：我忙著一些沒意義的事，期盼著喬很快從臥室回來。 Expecting期待；remembering記得； agreeing同意； allowing允許。根據(jù)文意妻子應盼著丈夫快點回來，故選A。
小題7:考查名詞及語境理解。句意：考慮著他可能在哄孩子睡覺這件事上有困難。Excuse借口；fun玩笑。樂趣；trouble麻煩，困難；chance機會。 have trouble doing sth做某事有困難，所以選C。
小題8:考查連詞及語境理解。句意：雖然孩子早已睡了，但他還是把他抱在懷中。 Though雖然； because 因為； unless 除非； even甚至。根據(jù)句意可知該選A。
小題9:考查形容詞及語境理解。句意：我們一遍遍的說著一定能渡過這次分離，很快就能再次團聚。 sure確信的；proud自豪的； alone獨自的； together一起，團聚。此處是夫妻兩人互相安慰著一定能很快團聚。所以選D。
小題10:考查動詞及語境理解。句意：當再次分時，我的丈夫仍要忍住眼淚，為了對國家做貢獻。 visit參觀，拜訪； sleep睡覺； leave離開； play玩。句中soldier本義為“士兵”，由上下文可知指的就是她丈夫。根據(jù)文意面對分別的時候，才會忍住眼淚。所以選C。

科I am a mother of three and have recently completed my college degree. The last class I had to take was sociology(社會學). The teacher was really great. The class was asked to go out and smile at three people.
I am a very       person and thought this would be a piece of cake. Soon after, my husband, youngest son and I went out to McDonald’s. We were standing in line, waiting to be       , when all of a sudden everyone around us began to     away, and then even my husband did.
As I turned around I smelled a terrible “dirty body” smell, and there standing behind me were two poor        men. As I looked down at the short gentleman, he was “     ”. His beautiful sky blue eyes were full of God’s Light as he searched for acceptance. He said, “Good day.” as he counted the few       he had been holding.
The young lady at the counter(柜臺) asked him what they       . He said, “Coffee is all Miss.” because that was all they could afford. He just needed to be warm.
Then I really        it—the compulsion(沖動) was so great that I almost      out and hugged the little man with the blue eyes.
That is when I noticed all eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging my every action. I smiled and asked the young lady behind the counter to give        two more breakfast meals on two plates.
I then picked up the plates and walked around the counter to the             that the men had chosen as a resting place. I put the plates on the table and laid my hand on the  blue-eyed gentleman’s        hand. He looked up at me, with tears in his eyes, and said, “Thank you.”
I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn：acceptance without condition.

When my son, Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy Christmas presents. The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list and had twenty dollars in his pocket.
I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a basket and went in while I waited and watched in the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents. Finally he came to the checkout counter and reached into his pocket for his money. It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money. Mark stood there holding his basket, tears falling down his face.
Then a surprising thing happened. A woman came up to Mark and took him in her arms. "You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you," said the woman. "It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me. I only ask that one day you will pass it on. When you grow up, I would like you to find someone you can help. When you help others, 1 know you will feel as good about it as I do now."
Mark took the money, dried his tears and ran back to the checkout counter as fast as he could. That year we all enjoyed our gifts almost as much as Mark enjoyed giving them to us.
