Question

Once there was a very brilliant, creative and educated man. He gained much __1.__ while traveling throughout the world. Unfortunately he lost his legs and left arm in a tragic accident, leaving only a finger and thumb on his right hand. He became so __2.__ that he was afraid he would spend his life __3.__ and would no longer be able to use his life in a(n) __4.__ way.

One day, he remembered how he had always loved getting __5.__. He realized that he still had partial __6.__ of his right hand and could write with __7.__. Then, he had an idea. “Why not write to other people who need encouragement?”

He __8.__ where he could find those who could be encouraged if they read his letters. He thought of people in __9.__. Many of them had hope of regaining their __10.__. Others would keep feeling depressed and remain put away for the rest of their lives. He decided that he must try to __11.__ them. So he wrote to a prison ministry about sending letters to the prisoners. The prison minister replied that writing to the prisoners would be __12.__. However, it would be against prison rules for the prisoners to write back.

__13.__ with the intention, the man began sending __14.__ messages of God’s love, hope, strength, and encouragement. He wrote twice a week, __15.__ his strength and ability to the limit. He poured his heart and soul into his words, __16.__ his experience, sense of humor, optimism, and faith.

It was difficult to write those letters, especially without hope of any__17.__. Frequently, he felt discouraged, wondering if anyone __18.__ read his letters. However, this was his __19.__  chance，so he determined to continue.

At last, he received a letter from the prison officer, which said, “Please write on the best paper you can afford. Your letters are passed from cell (牢房) to cell until they almost fall to __20.__!”

We all have unique experiences, abilities and talents. We can discover ways to reach others in need of encouragement and strength.

【解析】

試題分析：這是一個(gè)感人的故事：曾經(jīng)有一名男子，他非常聰明、富有創(chuàng)造力而且有教養(yǎng)，但不幸的是，在一次事故中，他失去了雙腿和左臂。他的人生將何去何從？是悲觀失望，還是堅(jiān)強(qiáng)面對(duì)？最后他選擇了給犯人寫信，以此給他們希望和鼓勵(lì)。

1.C 從上下文可知，他通過環(huán)球旅行，獲得了很多經(jīng)驗(yàn) (experience)，同時(shí)從第三段中的提示也可知答案。wealth表示“財(cái)富”，faith表示“信念”，confidence表示“自信”，都與語(yǔ)境不符。

2.A 從上文可知，他失去了雙腿和左臂，只剩下右手的拇指和另一個(gè)手指，所以他的情緒非常低落 (depressed)。embarrassed表示“尷尬的”，ashamed表示“慚愧的”，thrilled表示“激動(dòng)的”，都不符合語(yǔ)境。

3.B 他很擔(dān)心他的人生一直都會(huì)承受這種痛苦 (suffering)。

4.D 從上文提示可知，他擔(dān)心自己再也不能過有意義的生活了。abnormal表示“不正常的”；regular表示“有規(guī)律的”；comfortable表示“使人舒服的”；meaningful表示“有意義的”。根據(jù)語(yǔ)境選D項(xiàng)。

5.C 從下文可知，他記得自己曾經(jīng)非常喜歡收到信件 (letters)，所以他決定給需要鼓勵(lì)的人寫信。

6.D 根據(jù)上下文可知，他意識(shí)到他的右手還有部分的功能 (function)，還能夠費(fèi)勁地 (with difficulty)寫點(diǎn)什么。其他選項(xiàng)都不符合語(yǔ)境。

7.C考查詞組：with difficulty“困難地”

8.D 上文提到他決定給需要鼓勵(lì)的人寫信，這里指他想 (wonder)到哪里找這些需要鼓勵(lì)的人。estimate表示“估計(jì)”，doubt表示“懷疑”，assume表示“假設(shè)”，都與語(yǔ)境不符。

9.C 從下文提示可知，答案選prisons(監(jiān)獄)。

10.C 根據(jù)常識(shí)判斷，對(duì)于監(jiān)獄中的犯人來說，他們希望獲得freedom(自由)。

11.B 為了他的計(jì)劃，他覺得他必須得讓犯人們收到他的信件，所以用reach(聯(lián)系，到達(dá))。Release表示“釋放”，defend表示“辯護(hù)，保衛(wèi)”，know表示“知道”，都與語(yǔ)境不

12.A 根據(jù)上下文可知，監(jiān)獄官回信說寫信給犯人是可以的、可接受的 (acceptable)，但讓犯人回信是違反監(jiān)獄的規(guī)定的。reasonable表示“合理的”，prohibited表示“被禁止的”，considered表示“經(jīng)過仔細(xì)考慮的”，均與語(yǔ)境不符。

13.B 有了這樣的打算后，他開始給犯人寫信，filled with表示“有了，充滿”，根據(jù)語(yǔ)境選B項(xiàng)。

14.C 從上文可知，只能男子給犯人寫信，犯人無法回信，所以說是one-way(單程的)。

15.D 固定詞組to the limit表示“到……的極限”。

16.A 他全身心地投入到寫信當(dāng)中，與犯人分享 (share)自己的人生經(jīng)驗(yàn)

17.B 對(duì)他來說，寫這些信是很困難的，特別是在沒有任何回信 (reply)的情況下。

18.D 他經(jīng)常會(huì)感到很失落，有時(shí)候會(huì)想，實(shí)際上 (actually)是否有人會(huì)讀他的信。curiously表示“好奇地”，patiently表示“耐心地”，carefully表示“仔細(xì)地”，都與語(yǔ)境不符。

19.A 但對(duì)他來說，這是他唯一的 (only)希望，所以他決定繼續(xù)寫下去。

20.B 實(shí)際上，他的信很受犯人的歡迎，他的信件在牢房之間被傳遞，由于紙張薄，以至于到最后信都快成碎片了 (fall to pieces)。

考點(diǎn)：考查故事類完型填空

點(diǎn)評(píng)：本文講述了一個(gè)失去雙腿和左臂的人，他給犯人寫信，以此給他們希望和鼓勵(lì)。從本篇完型我們可以看出完形的考查趨勢(shì)。突出考察學(xué)生詞匯與結(jié)構(gòu)，詞匯與結(jié)構(gòu)這部分既是整個(gè)考試的基礎(chǔ)，也是本題考察的重點(diǎn)部分，在以后的復(fù)習(xí)中，要特別重視詞匯與語(yǔ)法的復(fù)習(xí)，重視自己基礎(chǔ)的夯實(shí)與提高，只有這樣，才能以不變應(yīng)萬(wàn)變，在高考中中立于不敗之地。另外在答題注意上下文理解，同時(shí)結(jié)合邏輯推理進(jìn)行答題，題目就能迎刃而解了。
