One day, four lawyers were riding along a country road. There had been a(n)  36 , and the ground was soft. The lawyers rode  37 , talking and laughing. As they were passing through a  38 , they heard some noises in the grass.
“What’s the matter here?” asked one man.
“Oh, it’s only some old robins (知更鳥(niǎo))!” said another one, “The  39  has blown them out of the nest. They are too young to  40  .”
“What a  41  ! They’ll die,” said the third one.
“Well! They’re nothing but  42  ,” said the first lawyer.
The three men looked down and saw the mother robin  43  to her mates. Then they rode on, talking and laughing as before. In a few minutes they had  44  the birds. But the fourth lawyer, whose name was Abraham Lincoln,  45  . He got down from his  46  and gently took the little ones up. They didn’t seem  47 , but chirped (唧唧叫) softly, as if they knew they were safe.
“Never  48 , my little fellows,” said Mr. Lincoln. Then he looked up to find the nest from which they had  49 . It was much higher than he could reach. But Mr. Lincoln could  50 . He put the birds softly, one by one, into their warm home.
In a few minutes, Mr. Lincoln  51  the others. He had torn his coat on the thorny (多刺的) tree. Then all three of them  52  heartily. They thought it so   53  that a strong man should take so much trouble just for some worthless young birds.
“Gentlemen,” said Mr. Lincoln, “I couldn’t have  54  tonight if I had left those helpless robins to die in the  55  grass.”
Abraham Lincoln afterwards became President of America.

試題分析：本文講述了林肯為了救幾只從樹(shù)上摔下來(lái)的知更鳥(niǎo)而爬樹(shù)把小鳥(niǎo)送進(jìn)鳥(niǎo)窩的故事，說(shuō)明他是一個(gè)非常善良，非常有同情心的人。
小題1:D 上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)下文描述可知下雨了，鄉(xiāng)村的路上很軟，都是泥巴。
小題2:.C 副詞辨析。A鎮(zhèn)定地B緊張地C慢慢地D頻繁地；地上很軟，都是泥巴，所以他們騎馬很慢。
小題3:A 上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)下文可知知更鳥(niǎo)是生活在樹(shù)上的，所以他們經(jīng)過(guò)的是一片森林。故A正確。
小題4:B 上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)文章第一空可知當(dāng)時(shí)是下雨了，所以知更鳥(niǎo)才會(huì)從樹(shù)上掉了下來(lái)。故B正確。
小題5:A 動(dòng)詞辨析。A飛行B說(shuō)話C移動(dòng)D吃飯；小的知更鳥(niǎo)太小了不會(huì)飛行，所以無(wú)法逃生。
小題6:C 名詞辨析。A成功B害羞C遺憾D案件；根據(jù)下句，他們會(huì)死，說(shuō)明這位律師認(rèn)為這是遺憾的事情。
小題7:D 上下文串聯(lián)。句意：從樹(shù)上掉下來(lái)的只是幾只小鳥(niǎo)。說(shuō)明這位律師對(duì)它們沒(méi)有一點(diǎn)同情心。
小題8:D 上下文串聯(lián)。小鳥(niǎo)從樹(shù)上掉了下來(lái)，鳥(niǎo)媽媽肯定很難受，所以哭著飛向孩子。
小題9:B 短語(yǔ)辨析。A處理B忘記C關(guān)心D轉(zhuǎn)向；幾分鐘以后，他們似乎都忘記了那些小鳥(niǎo)。
小題10:B 動(dòng)詞辨析。A喊叫B停下了C考慮D堅(jiān)持；其他幾個(gè)人都忘記了這件事情，但是林肯停了下來(lái)。
小題11:C 上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)上文可知他們騎馬走在鄉(xiāng)村小路上，故他是從馬上下來(lái)。
小題12:A 形容詞辨析。A害怕B疲憊C有趣D感動(dòng)；小鳥(niǎo)們一點(diǎn)也不害怕，嘰嘰咋咋叫個(gè)不停。
小題13:B 固定搭配。Never mind沒(méi)關(guān)系。這是林肯安慰小鳥(niǎo)的話。
小題14:C 上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)上文blown them out of the nest可知小鳥(niǎo)從鳥(niǎo)窩里掉了下來(lái)，故使用fall。
小題15:B 上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)下文林肯把小鳥(niǎo)送進(jìn)樹(shù)上的鳥(niǎo)窩說(shuō)明他會(huì)爬樹(shù)。故B正確。
小題16:D 動(dòng)詞辨析。A注意到B責(zé)備C參觀D參加；join sb和某人在一起；指林肯很快就和另外三人一起了。
小題17:A 動(dòng)詞辨析。A嘲笑B跳躍C工作D哭；其余三個(gè)人都嘲笑他做了傻事。
小題18:C 形容詞辨析。A幸運(yùn)的B清楚的C愚蠢的D危險(xiǎn)的；他們認(rèn)為如此麻煩地去救幾只沒(méi)有用的小鳥(niǎo)是愚蠢的。
小題19:D 動(dòng)詞辨析。A改變B返回C閱讀D睡覺(jué)；臨客說(shuō)如果不去救那幾只小鳥(niǎo)，他會(huì)睡不著覺(jué)的。
小題20:A 上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)上文可知下雨了，那么草地上應(yīng)該是濕的。故A正確。
點(diǎn)評(píng)：本文講述了林肯為了救幾只從樹(shù)上摔下來(lái)的知更鳥(niǎo)而爬樹(shù)把小鳥(niǎo)送進(jìn)鳥(niǎo)窩的故事，說(shuō)明他是一個(gè)非常善良，非常有同情心的人。從本文來(lái)看，考生應(yīng)該從時(shí)態(tài)、語(yǔ)態(tài)、語(yǔ)氣、名詞的數(shù)等各個(gè)角度分析所填內(nèi)容是否與上下文一致，從而排除一些備選答案，縮小選擇范圍；分析空白處與前后詞之間的語(yǔ)義關(guān)聯(lián)、搭配關(guān)系，從而排除一些選項(xiàng)；弄清楚該題的句法關(guān)系，分析一下它是簡(jiǎn)單句、并列句，還是復(fù)合句；判斷所填的內(nèi)容在句中充當(dāng)什么成分，應(yīng)是什么詞性，并分析備選答案之間的異同，從而排除干擾項(xiàng)選出正確答案。

For a few years I was  39 with the opportunity to teach disabled students.One of my most 40  students was a five-year-old girl called Vanessa，who had difficulty walking，and could not speak.We  41 sat on the floor for our music lessons and Vanessa liked to  42  on my lap．One of her favorite songs was John the Rabbit.It was a call and response song where I sang the call and the students  43  twice while singing the repeating phrase，“Oh，yes！” Vanessa liked to  44 her hands together with mine and clap with me.We probably performed that song during every class，Vanessa and I clapping together.But she  45  said or sang a word.
One day，when the song was finished，Vanessa turned around， 46 me in the eyes，clapped her tiny hands twice and said the words“Oh，yes！” I opened my mouth in  47  and for that moment I was the one who could not speak.When my heart  48  started beating again，I looked over at the assistant teacher to find her also  49 .Through music，we had made an awesome connection.
Several years later，I met Vanessa on the street in town.She waved with a big 50  on her face and then clapped her hands twice，imitating the song we had 51  so many times in our music class.The little girl， 52  her connection with music，left an impression on me that will last forever. Every child has the 53  to learn and grow. It is up to us to  54  the way to reach each and every one of our students.We all must find each child's  55 .

The house was quiet at 5 am and Tim’s mother was asleep. Only the sound of the big freezer broke the quiet. He’d dreamt of the cave last night. The purring（輕微顫動(dòng)聲）of the freezer had been the sea.                                         
Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag. It was too early for breakfast. He’d eat after he’d been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea.
He wished he had a proper pack. His schoolbag would have to do. What else? Sandwiches—but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches. She’d want to know why he had to leave so early. He settled for some biscuits, and left a note stuck to the table:
Gone to Michael’s. Back tonight, Tim.
The sky was high and soft and light outside, though the sun still wasn’t up. Even the highway up the hill was quiet as he made his way down the street. The wind from the sea was fresh and sweet.
The sand hills still breathed heat from yesterday’s sun, though the top of the sand was cool. He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one, just dry sand dancing in the early wind and seabirds marching up and down watching the waves.
The light changed suddenly. The first rays of sunlight stretched (延伸) across the sea. The sun was pushing its way over the edge of the world.
Over the first rocks, along to the point, Tim glanced back. The beach was still empty. The sun sailed higher in the sky.
He could see the cave now, even darker in the morning light. The sand turned silver then dark gold as the water flowed away from it. He had to force himself to go closer.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

We spent a day in the country, picking wild flowers. With the car full of flowers we were going home. On our way back my wife noticed a cupboard outside a furniture shop. It was tall and narrow. “Buy it,” my wife said at once. “We’ll carry it home on the roof rack(行李架), I’ve always wanted one like that.”
What could I do? Ten minutes later I was 20 pounds poorer, and the cupboard was tied onto the roof rack. It was six inches long and eighteen inches square, quite heavy too.
In the gathering darkness I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed unusually polite that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea.
After a time my wife said, “There’s a long line of cars behind. Why don’t they overtake, I wonder?”
In fact a police car did overtake. The two officers inside looked at us seriously as they passed. But then, with great kindness, they led us through the rush-hour traffic. The police car stopped at our village church. One of the officers came to me.
“Right, sir,” he said. “Do you need any more help?”
I was a bit puzzled. “Thanks, officer,” I said. “You have been very kind. I live just on the road.”
He was staring at our car: first at the flowers, and then at the cupboard. “Well, well,” he said, laughing. “It’s a cupboard you’ve got there! We thought it was, something else.”
My wife began to laugh. Then the truth hit me like a stone between the eyes. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, it’s a cupboard, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could.

小題2:The police will be more polite to those who are______.
