She kissed him and stood up. \"Here,\" she said, \"I'll leave one of these pencils on 17 desk so you'll remember that everybody makes mistakes, 18 teachers.\" Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and a smile.

(1)考查形容词。A. small“小的”;B. basic“基本的”;C. necessary“必要的”;D. large“巨大的”。犯错误应该是人们学习过程中必要的部分。故选C。
(2)考查动词。A. give“给”;B. disallow“不允许,不接受”;C. offer“提供”;D. permit“许可”。大人有犯错误的权利,孩子也应该拥有“同样的”权利。而许多父母和老师不允许孩子犯错,故选B。

(4)考查名词。A. fear“害怕”;B. lesson“功课”;C. chance“机会”;D. sense“感知”。根据下文的Donnie的表现得出,Donnie害怕犯错误。故选A。
(5)考查副词。A. always“总是”;B. often“经常”;C. never“从来没有”;D. seldom“很少”。根据上下文的逻辑关系得出,因为Donnie害怕犯错误,所以很少回答问题。故选D。 (6)考查名词。A. self-protection“自我保护”;B. self-improvement“自我改善”;C. self-confidence“自信”;D. self-learning“自主学习”。作为老师,“我”应该是尽力帮助建立他的自信。故选C。

(10)考查名词。A. surprise“惊奇”;B. astonishment“惊讶”;C. anger“生气”;D. tears“眼泪”。因为Donnie犯了错所以哭了。下文“ the tear-stained (弄脏的) face from his arms”是Donnie泪流满面的提示。故选D。

(16)考查情态动词。改正错误再次尝试是你必须要学会的东西,must“必须”说明人的观点和建议,符合题意。故选B。
(17)考查代词。从后面看Mary Anne把一支铅笔放在了Donnie的桌子上,给他以鼓励和启示。与you一致用your,故选D。
(18)考查副词。A. still“仍然”;B. also“也”;C. even“甚至”;D. not“不”。even表示程度更进一步,符合逻辑。“甚至”老师也经常犯错误。故选C。
(19)考查名词。A. pencil“铅笔”;B. words“单词”;C. mistake“错误”;D. desk“课桌”。Mary Anne留给Donnie铅笔的目的是鼓励他不惧怕犯错误,因此,这支铅笔就是被予以期望的物品。故选A。

One morning, I had to 10 an immediate flight home for a family emergency. I ran into Rani's office 11 . The woman sitting at the desk, 12 my madness, sympathetically jumped up.

Rushing out 15 I called out over my shoulder, “By the way, what’s your name?” “I'm Rani,” she said. I turned around and saw a 16 woman with a big smile on her face waving to wish me a safe trip.

【解析】【分析】本文属于夹叙夹议类短文,以“我”在电话中与Rani的交流中发现,她比
较“冷漠”,甚至有了换人的想法。后来实际生活中的一次接触让我发现原来的看法完全是错误的。
(1)D 考查上下文串联。动词accept接受;notice注意;hear听说;听见;meet遇见;根据第一句可知很多人只是通过电话了解你,你们也许从来都没有见过面,只是通过电话交流。故D正确。
(2)A 考查动词短语。动词move移动;run奔跑;develop发展,开发;短语come from来自于....;他们对你的了解来自于电话,因为你们之间的距离通常非常遥远,甚至在千里之外。,与BCD三项的动词语义不搭配。故A正确。
(3)B 考查上下文串联。虽然你们之间的距离很远,但是他们只要通过你的声音,就可以了解你。上下文之间是转折关系,所以使用副词yet串联前后语义。故B正确。
(4)C 考查副词辨析。副词rather相当地;also也;just只是;already已经;本句使用just表示强调,别人只要通过声音就可以了解你。故C正确。
(5)A 考查上下文串联。根据26空后“only by phone”可知本文介绍的是电话,人们可以通过电话了解你。故A正确。
(6)D 考查上下文串联。形容词direct直接的;useful有用的;easy容易的;accurate准确的;本空前的but说明上下文之间是转折关系,电话虽然很强大,但是也并不是很准确。与ABC三项语义不搭配。故D正确。
(7)A 考查介词辨析。介词in person亲自,by myself靠自己;in public当众;on purpose故意地;A项与空前的faceless形成呼应,Rain是代理人,但是我们从来没有碰过面。故A正确。
(8)A 考查上下文串联。空前的cold voice可知Rani在电话里的声音很冷漠,这让我很不高兴,甚至想过要另外找一个代理人。说明我对他的声音很反感。故A正确。
(9)C 考查上下文串联。动词promote提拔;train训练;find寻找,找到;know知道;正是因为Rani的声音让我很不舒服,所以我曾经想过另外找代理人取代他。故C正确。 (10)D 考查动词辨析。动词arrange预定;postpone推迟;confirm确认;book预定;因为家庭中的紧急事情我要立刻预定回家的航班。动词book与flight相搭配。故D正确。 (11)A 考查介词短语。短语for the first time第一次;at any time随时;from time to time时而不时;in good time及时,迅速;因为情况紧急,所以我第一次亲自来到Rini的办公室。故A正确。
(12)B 考查动词辨析。动词expect期待,预料;see看见;test检测;avoid避免;她看到了我的着急,Rani非常同情我,给了我安慰的笑容。动词see与上下文搭配一致。 (13)B 考查形容词辨析。形容词shy害羞的;comforting安慰的;familiar熟悉的;forced被迫的;她看到我很着急,笑着安慰我。故B正确。
(14)C 考查上下文串联。根据30空可知我要预定回家的航班的机票,本句中Rani很快帮我把机票打印出来。故C正确。
(15)C 考查上下文串联。副词hopefully充满希望地;disappointedly感到失望地;gratefully感激地;regretfully遗憾地;对方如此迅速地帮我把机票打印出来,而且一直面带微笑,这让我心存感激。故C项正确。
(16)D 考查上下文串联。形容词careful细心的;serious严肃的,认真的;nervous紧张的;pleasant令人愉快的;现实生活中的Rani富有同情心,待人热情大方。是一个令人愉快的相处对象。所以当我转身时,看见的是与电话中完全不一样的Rani。故D项正确。 (17)D 考查上下文串联。现实生活中的她是如此的体贴大方,而我之前却认为她很冷漠,甚至有了要另找代理的想法,我真是无话可说。说明电话中得到的印象有时很不准确。故D项正确。
(18)B 考查上下文串联。在文章28空前“cold”以及前句“...she was cold”之前我因为Rani很冷漠,但却没有想到实际生活中的Rani是如此的美好善良。故B项正确。
(19)C 考查名词辨析。名词forgiveness谅解;eagerness急切;friendliness友好;skillfulness熟练;从52-54空内容可知Rani对我非常友好善良,并没有电话中的那种冷漠的感觉。故C项正确。
(20)B 考查名词辨析。名词explanation解释;attitude态度;concept概念;behavior行为;Rani的善良友好的态度并没有从电话线中传递过去。B项指Rani接待我的友好的态度。故B项正确。

18.完形填空
Over the past few decades, more and more countries have opened up the markets, increasingly transforming the world economy into one free-flowing global market. The question is:Is economic globalization 1 for all?
According to the World Bank, one of its chief supporters, economic globalization has helped reduce 2 in a large number of developing countries. It quotes one study that shows increased wealth 3 to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries as a result of integration (融合) of local economies into the world economy. Home to some three billion people, these twenty-four countries have seen incomes 4 at an average rate of five percent—compared to two percent in developed countries.
Those who 5 globalization claim that economies in developing countries will benefit from new opportunities for small and home-based businesses. 6 , small farmers in Brazil who produce nuts that would originally have sold only in 7 open-air markets can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet.
Critics take a different view, believing that economic globalization is actually 8 the gap between the rich and poor. A study carried out by the U.N.-sponsored World Commission on the Social Dimension of Globalization shows that only a few developing countries have actually
9 from integration into the world economy and that the poor, the uneducated, unskilled workers, and native peoples have been left behind. 10 , they maintain that globalization may eventually threaten emerging businesses. For example, Indian craftsmen who currently seem to benefit from globalization because they are able to 11 their products may soon face fierce competition that could put them out of 12 . When large-scale manufacturers start to produce the same goods, or when superstores like Wal-Mart move in, these small businesses will not be able to 13 and will be crowded out.
One thing is certain about globalization—there is no 14 . Advances in technology combined with more open policies have already created an interconnected world. The 15 now is finding a way to create a kind of globalization that works for the benefit of all. (347 words) 1. A. possible 2. A. crime 4. A. remain 5. A. doubt 6. A. In addition 7. A. mature 8.

【答案】(1)C;(2)B;(3)A;(4)D;(5)C;(6)B;(7)C;(8)D;(9)B;(10)A;(11)C;(12)B;(13)A;(14)D;(15)D;
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文,文章先提出问题:全球化经济化到底有益吗?然后列出了两种相反的观点:一种观点陈述的是全球化带来的好处,一种观点陈述的是全球化带来的问题,各有充足的论点和论据。最后得出结论,全球化不可避免、无回头路可走,只有想办法找到一条最好的全球化的道路。(1)考查形容词。possible”可能“; smooth ”顺利的,光滑的,平稳的“; good”好的“; easy”简单的“。根据上文“increasingly transforming the world economy into one free-flowing global market”逐渐地把世界经济转变为了一个自由流动的全球大市场。很明显这是讲的市场开放的好处,因此后面提出问题,“问题是,经济全球化对所有人都好吗(有好处吗)?”,故选择C项。
(2)考查名词。根据下文“It quotes one study that shows increased wealth 3 to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries ”中的increased wealth增加的财富,可知,市场开放给这些国家带来了财富的增加,财富增加了,那么就是减少了贫困问
题,即选择B项。crime\"犯罪\"; poverty\"贫困\"; conflict\"冲突\"; population\"人口\"。
(3)考查动词短语。contribute to ”促成,导致“; respond to ”对……做出反应 “;turn to ”转向,向某人求助“; owe to”由于“。 根据下文”improved education and longer life “可知,教育得到了改善,人的寿命得到了延长,因此是产生了好的促进作用,因此选择A项。 (4)考查动词。根据上文”It quotes one study that shows increased wealth 3 to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries“可知,这24个国家的财富增加了,也就是说他们的收入增加了,即increase。句意为,这24个国家的人的收入增加了平均百分之五。remain ”仍然“; drop”下降 “;shift”变化“; increase”增加“。因此选择D。 (5)考查动词。doubt “怀疑”; define “定义、规定、明确” ;advocate “提倡、拥护”; ignore“忽视”。根据下文的 “economies in developing countries will benefit from new opportunities for small and home-based businesses”发展中国家的经济会收益,源于小型的、家庭型生意获得的新机会,尤其是其中的“benefit from”可知,该观点的those人们是支持,提倡市场开放的,因此选择C项。
(6)考查固定短语。上一句讲到了小型的、家庭型的生意会获得等多的机会,该句讲的是他们具体是得到怎样的机会,因此属于具体说明、举例说明,故选择B 项。for instance“例如”;in addition“此外”,表递进关系;in other words“换句话说”;all in all“总而言之”。 (7)考查形容词。根据下文“can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet.”中的now, worldwide与前半句的originally和 in 7 open-air markets “是对比关系,即过去是当地市场,现在市场开放后是全球市场。因此选择C项。local ”当地的“;mature”成熟的“;new”新的“;foreign”国外的“。
(8)考查动词。根据上文“Critics take a different view”可知,该部分陈述的是反对市场开放的观点,因此他们认为市场开放会加大穷人和富人之间的差距。widen \"变宽 \";find\"找到\";explore\"探索\";bridge\"架桥、度过\",故选择D。
(9)考查动词。suffer”遭受“; profit”获益、盈利“;learn”学习“;withdraw”撤退、收回“。根据下文“ the poor, the uneducated, unskilled workers, and native peoples have been left behind”可知,穷人、未受教育的人、没有技术的工人和当地人都被丢在了后面,也就是说只有少部分人是从中(市场开放)收益的,即profit from sth,”从……中受益、获益“。 (10)考查副词。根据下文的“globalization may eventually threaten emerging businesses.”意为全球化会逐渐威胁到新兴企业。该观点与上面几句的观点类似,都是属于反对市场开放的,但是该观点与上面的加大差距不一样,因此跟上一观点是递进关系,因此选择A项。furthermore”此外“,表递进关系;therefore”因此“,因果关系;however”然而“,转折关系 ;otherwise”否则“,转折关系。
(11)考查动词。根据上文中的“small farmers in Brazil who produce nuts that would originally have sold only in 7 open-air markets can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet”可知,当地人可以通过互联网把商品卖到世界各地,即向国外出口商品,故选择C。句意:例如,印度的手艺人目前看起来是从全球化中收益了,因为他们可以出口他们的商品,但是他们很快就会面对激烈的竞争,这可能会让他们破产。 consume\"消耗、消费\"; deliver\"递送,发表\";export”出口“;advertise\"做广告\"。
(12)考查固定短语。根据“face fierce competition ”可知,激烈的竞争可能会导致他们破
产,即out of business.故选择B项。out of trouble” 脱离困境 :out of business “破产”;out of power “丧失权利 ”; out of mind“心不在焉”。
(13)考查动词短语。keep up“保持、继续、不落后”;come in“进来”;go around“四处走动、供应”; help out“帮助……摆脱困境”。 根据上文的out of business“破产”和下文的be crowded out“被排挤出去”可知,此处指的是小手艺人的生意将不能继续下去。故选择A。 (14)考查动词短语。根据下文可知,随着科技的发展,还会有更多的开放,将会出现更好的全球化,因此可知,全球化是必然的,是没有回头路可走的,因此选择D项,turn back“往回走”;take off“起飞,脱掉” ;get along“相处、进展”;hold out“伸出、坚持”。
(15)考查名词。agreement“同意、一致”; prediction“预测、预计”;outcome“后果”;challenge“挑战”。句意,目前最大的挑战就是找到一个方法,来创造出一个能够对每一个人都有好处的全球化。选D。
【点评】本题考点涉及形容词、动词、名词、动词短语、副词以及固定短语等多个知识点的考查,综合性强,要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上,通过上下文的逻辑关系,进一步进行分析解析,选出正确答案。

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,作者所居住的地方要分类放垃圾,且每周类别不同,但作者就是记不住哪周放哪类垃圾,幸好有个人专门写了提示牌,且每隔一周一换。作者想要对那个人表示感谢,但由于自己不够果断而没能做。对给你以帮助的人,现在就要说“谢谢”。
(1)考查名词。句意:路旁有一块牌子(标记),上面写着\"这是瓶子周\"或\"这是纸周\"。A. ban“禁令”;B. remark“注释”;C. graph“图形”;D. sign“标记,符号”。根据下文“look for the sign”可知,选D。

(3)考查名词。句意:每周我都努力寻找这个牌子。A. purpose“目的”;B. decision“决定”;C. ambition“野心,抱负”;D. effort“努力”。上文作者记不住,所以要通过牌子来知道该回收哪种垃圾,要努力去找牌子来确认。make an effort to do sth.固定短语,“努力做某事”,故选D。
(4)考查形容词。句意:我有一种“复杂的”情绪。 A. strong“强壮的”;B. strange“奇怪

(5)考查形容词。句意:恼火,因为原本应该有人换掉它!A. Annoyed “ 恼怒的”;B. Surprised“吃惊的”;C. Puzzled“困惑的”;D. Excited“兴奋的”。根据上文“I was confused,angry and concerned.和Confused because I didn't know what to do. ”;以及下文“Concerned because,…”,可知,作者三种情绪混杂,设空词前面一句已经有了Confused,设空词后是Concerned,所以设空词应该是angry愤怒,故选A。
(6)考查动词短语。句意:关心,是因为依赖“那个人”换指示牌接近20年了。A. searching for“寻找”;B. checking in“签入”;C. relying on“依靠”;D. figuring out“算出”。上文作者记不住垃圾回收的类别,所以全靠指示牌提示,故选C。
