解析

试题分析:文章讲述了一个故事。商人和船长是朋友,一次船长出海归来,听从了商人的建议,买了很多铁,并且由商人看管着。但是出海回来时商人却告诉船长铁被老鼠吃掉了,船长不动声色,到下次出海回来后带回的消息是商人的儿子被海鸟叼走了。于是两人对簿公堂。
小题1:C名词辨析。A汽车;B 手推车;C轮船;D 飞机。根据上下文及常识可知船长出海要用船,当水手当然也要在船上,所以C选项正确。
小题2:A 名词辨析。A 航海,航天; B 旅行;C生意,公司;D 参观。从上文the captain took him for voyages和下文 you return from your next voyage可知此处是指船长出海归来,故A选项正确。
小题3:A 动词辨析。A 下降;B 举起; C 加宽;D 上升。根据常识可知做买卖要低价进高价卖,而且从下文the price of iron went up可以推断得知商人建议船长时铁价比较低,所以此空选A。
小题4:A 动词辨析。A 保存,保管;B 隐藏;C举行,抓住;D 放。从语境可知商人承诺要替船长保管着这些铁,并且承诺要把它们放在仓库里,所以正确选项为A。
小题5:D 连词辨析。A 当。。时候;B自从;C 在。。之后;D 直到。。。根据情理可知商人说要替船长保管这些铁直到他下次出海回来。故D选项正确。
小题6:B 不定代词辨析。A 许多;B 更多;C 一点;D 更少。商人建议船长买进铁,所以从他经商的头脑判断船长应该会能赚到更多的钱。所以选B。
小题7:D 介词辨析。A 在。。之上;B在。。里;C到;D在。。旁边,或表示程度。根据上下文可知铁价上涨了60%,而在这四个选项中只有介词by可以表示(相差的)程度,所以D选项正确。
小题8:A 形容词辨析。A 不诚实的;B 诚实的;C 真正的;D以前的。从商人的做法可以断定他是个不讲信用,不诚实的人,所以A选项正确。
小题9:C 动词辨析。A 卖;B 借;C 吃;D喝酒。根据下文他们在法官面前的话mice eat iron,可知商人撒谎说老鼠把铁给吃掉了,所以选C。
小题10:C动词辨析。A谈话;B 制作;C 告诉;说D 说。固定短语 tell a lie “说谎”,所以选C。句意:船长知道他的朋友在撒谎。
小题11:B形容词辨析。 A 有好的;B 平静的;C安静的;D生气的。根据转折连词but以及下文船长说的话I knew that you had problems  47  mice in your storehouse.可知船长表现的很平静,没有发火着急,所以答案选B。
小题12:D介词辨析。 A关于; B 在。。里C在。。上;D 和。。一起,关于。固定短语:have problems with sth “有。。的问题”,相当于 have trouble/ difficulty with sth。所以D为正确选项。
小题13:A不定代词辨析。 A 另一个; B下一个;C 其他的(特指); D 其他的(泛指)。根据上下文可知船长是再一次出海,在此不是特指某一次,所以选A。
小题14:C 介词辨析。A 当。。时候;B 在。。以后;C 在。。期间;D 在。。之前。从语境可知船长是指在航海期间,商人的儿子被海鸟叼走了。During是介词“在。。期间”后面可以用名词做宾语,而while是连词,后面要跟句子,所以C选项正确。
小题15:B 形容词辨析。A 枯燥的;B 感到迷惑的;C 生气的; D 恐怕。从下文商人说的话“Birds cannot carry boys!”可以推断商人对船长所说的话感觉很困惑, 所以B选项正确。
小题16:B 不定代词辨析。A然而;B两者都不;C 也,D两者中的任意一个。根据语境可知船长在此指的是老鼠也不会吃铁, 来承接前句“Birds cannot carry boys!”。在英语中如果前句是否定句,后面表示“也如此”的话,用“neither /nor+动词+主语”结构。所以B选项正确。
小题17:D名词辨析。 A 律师;B经理; C 孩子;D法官,裁判。根据情理可知人们之间起了纷争的时候要去找法官,所以选D。
小题18:B 动词辨析。A 归还;B给;C提供;D借给。根据故事的内容可知,商人卖掉了船长的铁而获得许多钱,而不是借的船长的钱,所以此处用give而不选return。故B选项正确。
小题19:C 动词辨析。A 保持;B 买来;C卖掉;D 偷。根据上文so the merchant sold it and kept the money可知C选项正确。
小题20:A动词辨析。 A带来;B 去取来;C 携带;D 逮住,接住。从上文可知船长在出海时把商人的儿子给藏了起来,所以法官要求船长把商人的儿子带回来。Bring指把人或东西带到说话的地方来,而fetch是去取来,去拿来的意思。carry没有方向性,而且一般指肩挑背扛等较重的物体。所以A选项正确。

I have a good memory of my grandfather,Jack. He was sitting in his armchair in the front room.
I sat next to him. We were reading aloud,our heads bent over the page in front of us,a finger marking the words;separated by seven decades,brought together by words. It"s a common scene in British families;however,in our case,the usual order of things is reversed(颠倒).Granddad had been blind since I was tiny,so I was reading to him.When reading aloud,people usually read something that"s of interest to the listener. So I didn"t read children"s books;I read the sorts of things Granddad liked to hear about. Much of the vocabulary in Granddad’s reading material was far beyond me. When I met unfamiliar words,I"d spell them out.
Granddad would help me. It must have been painful for him to hear news;but he never hurried me along or complained. Our reading wasn"t really about getting knowledge. It was a way for us to spend time together.
My grandfather wasn"t always blind. He had been a good carpenter(木匠).The first Christmas of my parents" marriage,he built my mother a bookcase,which now belongs to my son Jonah,providing a link between four generations.
I was a fortunate child;I spent a lot of time with my grandfather,and he opened the world to me in a particular way. Reading was our way of building a relationship that has had a lasting effect on me. In the school holidays,I sometimes accompanied him on trips to the seaside with the local association for the blind. This might seem strange,but I felt that my personal value was realized because I could finally do something for Granddad.
A decade later,I found a position in a nursing home,which reminded me of my early experiences;reading to senior citizens was a connection back to Granddad. More than simple conversation,reading aloud is a connection between two individuals and it can have a big emotional(情感的)effect on elderly people.
小题1:What can we know from the first paragraph?
A.The author"s grandfather was born blind.
B.The author is seventy years younger than her grandfather.
C.The author often sat opposite to her grandfather while reading.
D.It"s quite common in Britain that children read to their grandfathers.
小题2:Why didn"t the author choose to read children"s books?
A.To expand her knowledge.
B.To make her vocabulary bigger.
C.To show off in front of her grandfather.
D.To satisfy the needs of her grandfather.
小题3:How did the author feel during the trips with Granddad?
A.Proud.B.Troubled.
C.Curious.D.Embarrassed.

A well-dressed man came to a famous jewelry shop. He explained that he wished to buy a pearl for his wife’s birthday. The price didn’t matter. Since business had been very good for him that year. After examining a nice black one that cost $5000, he paid for the pearl in cash, shook hands with the jeweler, and left.
A few days later the man returned and said that his wife liked the pearl so much that she wanted another one just like it. It had to be exactly the same size and quality, because she wanted a pair of earrings made, “Can you give me any advice on how to get such a pearl? ” said the man.
