BADAA  BBDCD  ACDBB  ACCDA

【解析】本文是一篇故事情節(jié)較強的記敘文。

1.B  only to do sth.“結(jié)果卻,不料”,作結(jié)果狀語,表示該結(jié)果在主語的預(yù)料之外;現(xiàn)在分詞作結(jié)果狀語,表示由主句所產(chǎn)生的邏輯上的結(jié)果。 realize在腦海里經(jīng)過思維“認識到,了解”;find在表面上就能“發(fā)現(xiàn), 看出”。

2.A  這四個選項都是英語成語,根據(jù)本段第一句an 8.2 earthquake almost flattened

America判斷,選擇A項。

3.D  從意義上判斷,“他想起了他曾對他兒子許下的諾言”;memorized是“背誦,熟記”。

4.A  從結(jié)構(gòu)上分析,該句是省略了謂語動詞的省略句,省略謂語之后,意義仍然清楚,如不省略動詞,則使用第三人稱單數(shù)happens。從意義上分析,可排除C、D項。

5.A  表示“流淚”,這幾個動詞都可能表示這種意義,但句式搭配不同,其表現(xiàn)形式分別為Tears fill his eyes;Tears come into his eyes;He bursts into tears。

6.B  從上下文意義判斷,“他不停地想起他對他兒子許下的諾言”。

7.B  動詞和動詞短語是完形填空設(shè)項的重點之一。此題要分清這四項的不同含義。dig及物動詞,“掘(土),挖”;dig through“(為找……)在……里挖掘”;dig out “發(fā)掘出”  dig into“鉆研”。

8.D  從結(jié)構(gòu)上分析,應(yīng)該用現(xiàn)在分詞作伴隨狀語,用and則表示并列,用said。

9.C  Come on表示勸說,不耐煩,意為“得啦!,來!”,可用Come, Come,代替。

10.D  從詞義上判斷one line“一句話(臺詞)”,A項中的one word干擾性較大,它表示“一個詞”,如用words 是正確的。

11.A  “介詞+反身代詞”有固定含義,for oneself獨自地,親自;by oneself單獨地;of oneself自行地,自動地;to oneself 對(著)自己。

12.C  這四個詞都有“活著的”之意,live僅用作定語,作表語用living ,alive 。living和alive在意義上有細微差別,living可作定語和表語,含有“本以為死了,然而還活著”,又如:I can’t believe my first teacher is still living。alive作表語和后置定語,其含義與dead相對應(yīng)。lively“生動的,活躍的”。

13.D  “在第3小時的時候,……”,序數(shù)詞之前要用定冠詞。

14.B  注意這四個詞的區(qū)別:sound “(各種)聲音” ;voice “(人們說話的)嗓音” noise“(不悅耳的)嘈音”;tone“(人們說話的)語氣,語調(diào)”。

15.B  這是表將來的虛擬語氣,主句中用would +動詞原形,從下文的句子中也能找到類似的句子。

16.A  從意義上判斷,“如果你來救我,他們也會得救!笔菞l件狀語從句,應(yīng)該用if 引導,然而選項中沒有if,when與if同義,引導條件狀語從句。even if 引導讓步狀語從句。

17.C  此題包含一個固定句型:There are … left. “還有……剩余下來”。

18.C  14 …out of 33 意為:33人中有14人活下來。out of “從……里面”。特別注意此題中的介詞與前面的left沒有任何聯(lián)系。如果沒有意識到這點,極可能會選錯。

19.D  從意義上判斷,“房屋倒塌時,自然形成的三角空隙”。而make room; make space 意為“(有意識地)為……騰出空間”。

20.A  從上下文意義判斷,此句為原因狀語從句。

In 1989 an 8.2 earthquake almost flattened America, killing over 30,000 people in less than four minutes. A father rushed to the school where his son was supposed to be, only to discover that the building was as flat as a pancake.
After the shock, he remembered the promise he had made to his son: “No matter what happened, I’ll always be there for you!” And tears began to fill his eyes. As he looked at the pile of ruins that once was the school, it looked hopeless, but he kept remembering his promise to his son.
Remembering his son’s classroom would be in the back right corner of the building, he rushed there and started digging.
Other parents tried to pull him off the ruins, saying: “It’s too late! They’re all dead! You can’t help!” He replied, “Are you going to help me now?” The fire chief showed up and tried to pull him off the school’s ruins saying, “Fires are breaking out, explosions are happening everywhere. You’re in danger. We’ll take care of it. Go home.” This loving, caring American father asked, “Are you going to help me now?”
The police came and said, “You’re, anxious and it’s over. Go home. We’ll handle it!” He replied, “Are you going to help me now?” No one helped.
Courageously he went on alone. He dug for eight hours...12 hours...24 hours...36 hours...then, in the 38th hour, he heard his son’s voice. He screamed his son’s name, “ARMAND!” He heard back, “Dad! It’s me, Dad! You promised no matter what happened, you would always be there for me! You did it, Dad!” “What’s going on in there? How is it?” the father asked.
“There are 14 of us left out of 33, Dad. ”
“Come out, boy!”
“No, Dad! Let the other kids out first, because I know you’ll get me! No matter what happens, I know you’ll always be there for me!”

C.Because he promised his son that he would be with him whatever happened.
D.Because his son was his only child.
