About one year ago, a couple with three children moved into the apartment next door to me. I never heard any noise from the children, but I often heard the parents 26 shouting at the kids, not in a nice tone, but in a (n) 27 one.
We often 28 in the hallway. I always greeted them, 29 the only answer I ever got was a “hello” from the eight-year-old girl. I usually 30 to see my doctor and one day when I returned they were just 31 their apartment and the little girl was 32 the outside door open for the others. I 33 in the car doing 34 things because I wasn’t eager to be snubbed (冷落) again. Finally I got out of my car and walked towards the door. The parents were telling her to 35 to get into the car, but the little girl was still holding the door, 36 me! I hurried although I was still in pain from my injury.
I forgot to tell her how 37 I was for her kindness. I wrote a note saying how much her act of kindness had 38 an old man’s heart.
The next day there was a (n) 39 on my door and it was the little girl and her father. She was quite 40 of her behavior and thanked me. Then I noticed her mother was there, too. Her parents 41 me, too.
Now when we meet in the hall way we always greet each other, in a friendly 42 .
Last night there was a heavy snow. I looked out at my car and 43 how I was going to keep my doctor’s 44 because I could only walk for a short time. This morning when I opened the front door, all the snow was removed.
Isn’t it 45 that the small kind act of an 8-year-old girl can change so many things for the better? It is said that good tings come from small acts.

解析

小题1:本题考查副词。我从没有听到孩子们的吵闹声,相反却经常听到父母呵斥孩子的声音,故用angrily“生气地”。
小题2:本题考查形容词。与前一句的nice构成反义词。frightening吓人的;sincere真诚的。
小题3:本题考查动词。quarrel吵架;chat聊天;argue争论。A、D两项可直接排除,从后文看邻里关系不怎么样所以排除C项。只是经常在走廊遇见。
小题4:本题考查连词。前后构成转折关系。虽然我经常问候他们,但是我唯一得到的答复是来自八岁的小女孩的“hello”。
小题5: 本题考查动词。went out与后面的return构成呼应。
小题6:本题考查动词。从后文可知此处表示“一家人正要离开”。
小题7:本题考查动词。35题后有提示。
小题8:本题考查动词。因为我害怕再次受到冷落,所以呆在车里,没下车。
小题9:本题考查形容词。我呆在车里仅仅是打发时间,所以做些不必要的事情。favorite最喜欢的;irrelevant不相关的;curious好奇的。
小题10:本题考查动词。虽然父母让女儿赶紧到车里去,但是小女孩依然按着门。
小题11:本题考查动词短语。小女孩按着门是在等我,现在分词短语作伴随状语。
小题12:本题考查形容词。我对小女孩的好心非常感激,beneficial受益的;influential有较大影响的;anxious焦急的;grateful感激的,感谢的。
小题13:本题考查动词。小女孩善意的举动触动了一个老人的心灵。strengthen加强,变强;break打破,破碎;touch触动;save拯救。
小题14:本题考查名词。本题有可能误选A项,但后文出现了小女孩和她的父亲,所以应该排除。只能是有人敲门,开门看到了小女孩和她的父亲。
小题15:本题考查形容词。小女孩也因为她的表现而感到自豪。aware意识到的,C项可直接排除;sure确信,放在此处意思不合适。
小题16:本题考查动词。thank感谢。因为我的表扬使得小女孩感到骄傲,所以她的父母对我表示感谢。
小题17:本题考查名词。in a friendly manner以一种友好的方式。
小题18:本题考查动词。由于受伤(injury在前文中出现),不能走很长的路,所以下雪了他就想知道怎样继续赴医生的约,用wonder想知道,琢磨。
小题19:本题考查名词。约会用appointment。
小题20:本题考查形容词。一个八岁小女孩的一次小小的善意的举动使许多事情向好的方向发展,这是一件令人惊奇的事情。故选A项。confusing令人迷惑的;scaring令人害怕的;challenging具有挑战的。

Three years ago when I was still in the university, I also worked at a restaurant.   
An old man named Mr. Candido Filio was one of our regular customers at the restaurant. He was one of the most intelligent people I’ve ever known.
Every Sunday the Philippine Star Newspaper had a special page for word puzzles and among his peers (同龄人), Mr. Filio held the record for solving all the puzzles in less than five minutes. He encouraged me to solve them too and for months and months, I did my best to beat him but failed.
Then one Sunday, I did it! I was able to complete them before anyone else. Everyone cheered for me. He came up to me with a smile and said, “No one has ever beaten me before. You’re the first. I’ll have a prize for you tomorrow.”
The next day, he gave me a special Scrabble (拼字游戏) set. I would have never been able to afford one like that by myself. Then he said to me, “Kate, what do you think is man’s final goal in life? Happiness, isn’t it? You are happy and that should be considered as a success. Many people spend a lifetime searching for that. Be thankful that you have found it.” I looked at him and knew that my life had changed, probably forever. He must have known that I always felt sad about not having much money.
He encouraged me to learn the game and love words. And true to his words, I was never able to beat him again.

Steve Fossett did not really look like an adventurer, but he reached some of the most difficult goals in sailing and flying.
Fossett was most proud of being the first person to fly around the world alone in a hot-air balloon. To make a trip around the world alone, it was necessary to have an improved autopilot (自动驾驶仪) device. Fossett had one of his team members develop a more advanced balloon autopilot that would allow him to sleep and do other tasks while flying safely.
Steve Fossett attempted the hot-air balloon trip around the world six times. This was not easy to do. He flew in the balloon’s capsule (密封舱) that was too small to stand upright. During his fourth attempt in 1998, he was almost killed during a storm off the coast of Australia. He fell 9,000 meters into the Coral Sea with his balloon’s capsule on fire. He was later rescued at sea.
Fossett successfully made the trip in 2002. The trip started and ended in Australia. He traveled more than 33,000 kilometers for more than 14 days. On this flight, Fossett set other records including a speed record of 322 kilometers per hour. One main problem with earlier balloon flights was the threat of dangerous storms. A team of weather experts e-mailed and talked to Fossett by a satellite telephone to help him avoid such weather.   
Steve Fossett’s hot-air balloon is now at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C.  It is there as an example for other people to try and succeed in doing something important to them.
小题1:What did Steve Fossett specially prepare for the trip around the world?
A.He made the balloon’s capsule bigger.
B.He had an autopilot impvoved.
C.He formed a team to fly with him.
D.He improved the balloon’s engine.
小题2:Steve Fossett solved the problem of bad weather on his trip by ______.
A.communicating with experts
B.using his rich experience
C.inventing a satellite phone
D.consulting other adventurers
小题3:We can learn from the text that Steve Fossett was ______.
A.patient and carefulB.modest and easy-going
C.brave and determinedD.energetic and kind-hearted
小题4:What can we learn about Steve’s flight in 2002?
A.He was rescued during the trip.
B.He lost his way over the sea.
C.It lasted over three weeks.
D.He set a speed record of balloon flight.
