1、21.  答案:D形容詞辨析
解析:從drove以及下文making fun of her. 可以看出,應(yīng)該是使她很生氣。Crazy“非常生氣”又如:That noise is driving me crazy.
Hopeless是令人失望的,而不是失望的,如:Most of the students are making good progress but Jeremy seems a hopeless case,大多數(shù)學(xué)生進步都很快, 但杰里米卻似乎無可救藥。
painful“使疼痛的,令人煩惱的”,而不是“煩惱的”。如:It was painful to admit that I was wrong.
dull, 令人厭煩的; 單調(diào)的,而不是“煩惱的”如:: The conference was deadly dull.
備考:準(zhǔn)確掌握詞義,在學(xué)習(xí)這類形容詞時,要尤其注意是主動意味,還是被動意味,又如:interesting 令人感興趣的,有趣的,interested 感興趣的。主動意味的多用于事物,被動意味的多用于人。The book is interesting. I’m interested in the book. 本題中:除A以外的三個詞,都是“令人……,使人感到……”,很顯然用于the woman是不合適的。

22. 答案:B
解析:從run away with pears看出,應(yīng)該是大聲的喊,shout,大聲說出。Whisper是低聲說。Call做喊叫講不帶表示內(nèi)容的的賓語。Announce,通知。
備考:做完形填空一定要注意上下文。不可只看一句話。
23. 答案:A
解析:從one evening 以及下文的next morning可看出是請求過夜。stay for the night 過夜,固定搭配。
24. 答案:B
解析:從常識可知,留宿陌生人應(yīng)該考慮他是否是誠實。從下文let him in 看出是允許進入。故選B. honest,與下文This one did not look trustworthy to her呼應(yīng)。
25.  答案:C
解析:既然允許過夜,接下來最有可能的應(yīng)該是招待。treat 招待,款待,其它選項不符合情理。

26. 答案:D
解析:從下文that引導(dǎo)同位語從句的內(nèi)容看,應(yīng)該是她的一個很難實現(xiàn)的愿望。suggestion 建議demand 要求 permission 允許,均對題意不符。
27. 答案:B
解析:wish是先行詞,同位語從句謂語動詞用should + 動詞原形,另外,could不能與be able to連用
28. 答案:A
解析:根據(jù)上下文,沒有她的允許不得下來。
29.  答案:D
解析:到樹上當(dāng)然是偷摘果實(梨)了。branch 樹枝; food 食物; tree 樹,均不符合題意。
30. 答案:D
解析:長時間的請求后,老太太才讓梨樹放他們下來。Before,在……之前,才……

31. 答案:B
解析:當(dāng)然是放偷梨的孩子走了。用them指代偷梨的孩子
32. 答案:C
解析:這樣的整治,孩子們當(dāng)然不敢來了,老太太自然就沒有這個麻煩了。
33. 答案:C
解析:據(jù)上下文,有一個停在她家門前請求住宿。Stop at 在某處停下來。
34. 答案:A
解析:看見這個人不太可信,所以要查問他了。有因果關(guān)系
35. 答案:A
解析:take sb with sb 帶某人走,
36. 答案:B
解析:從上下文可知,是摘一些梨作為紀(jì)念。從climb可以看出是要上樹采摘,而不是挑選或搖動。

37. 答案:B
解析:從文章一開始,She spent all her time taking care of the tree.可知老太太與這棵梨樹的深厚感情。摘幾顆梨應(yīng)該是想記住它所帶給她的快樂了。從文章中也沒有看到,梨樹給他帶了什么榮譽、希望或者是什么興奮的事情。
38. 答案:C
解析:從climb high to get the best fruit可知,是老太太以“年老爬不上樹”為由誘騙“death” 上樹(進入陷阱)
39. 答案:B
解析:Will you be so kind to do sth 請求別人幫助,固定表達(dá)法。
40. 答案:C
解析:從With a deep sigh可知,Death并不愿意為他爬樹摘梨,但念及快要死的人了,就答應(yīng)了,但不會很樂意的,unwillingly 不樂意地。Disappointedly是失望的,這里death并沒有什么愿望,也就談不上失望了。

請在這里輸入關(guān)鍵詞:
