Those parties _1_ birthday parties and wedding ceremonies are usually fun, and encountering friends we arent expecting _2_ be a wonderful treat as well. People are often surprised by new mails, or _3_ (see) an old friend at a grocery store. There are many kinds of ways that joy unexpectedly comes into our life.Perhaps even better is a blessing in disguise. Assume that you are walking in the rain to a bookstore because your _4_ (favor) author is going to hold a meeting for her new book. You walk for an hour, and arrive completely wet. _5_ you walk into the bookstore, you are told that the author is sick and wont be there. _6_ a disappointment!_7_ when you look across the room, you may see a friend with whom you havent talked in a year. Then you two agree to cross the street together to _8_ coffee shop, and talk for hours. The authors _9_ (sick) is unfortunate for you, but if she _10_ (be) not sick, you might not have coffee with your old friend. It is a blessing in disguise.1_ 2._ 3._ 4._ 5._ 6._ 7._ 8._ 9._ 10._ 篇章导读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。生活总会给我们许多惊喜。你冒着雨去与自己最喜欢的作者见面,却被告知作者生病不能前来,但你却无意中遇到了自己多日不见的朋友,这就是我们生活中的惊喜。1like考查介词。由设空前的parties和设空后表示举例的名词可知,应填like “例如;像”。2can考查情态动词。由设空前的“arent expecting”和空后的“as well”可知,应填表示理论上的可能性的can。3seeing考查非谓语动词。此处表示收到邮件或在杂货店见到老朋友都会让人感到意外。空处作介词by的宾语,故应使用see的动名词形式seeing。4favorite考查词性转换。此处应用形容词修饰名词author,指最喜欢的作家,故用favorite。5When/After考查状语从句的连接词。此处指当/在你走进书店时/之后,故填When/After。6What考查感叹句的引导词。“Whata/an形容词单数名词主语谓语”为固定句型,在表意清楚的情况下,主语和谓语常常被省略,故此处用What。7But考查连词。根据上下文语境可知,此处表示转折,故用But。8a考查冠词。此处指“一个咖啡店”,表泛指,故用不定冠词a。9sickness考查词性转换。由上文中的“the author is sick”可知此处表示作者生病了,再由空前的“authors”可知此处应用名词。10were考查虚拟语气。此处表示要是你喜欢的作者现在没有生病,你可能就没有机会和老朋友喝咖啡了。表示与现在事实相反的假设,所以应用were。三、完形填空。阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可能填入空白处的最佳选项。When my sister Diane began playing the violin,she was seven.How did she sound?Terrible.But she didnt _1_.At twelve,she asked our parents if she could _2_ a fulltime music school.They said no.Actually,everyone agreed that my sister_3_ talent.I was better at my _4_.My teacher had told my parents that I had great_5_.So my parents found the best piano teacher in the area to _6_ me.But the only time he was _7_ was Saturday afternoons at 3 pm.

Terrible”可知,七岁时,“我”妹妹的小提琴演奏得糟糕透了(awful),故C项正确。A项意为“迅速发展的”,B项意为“令人愉快的”,D项意为“有力量的”,都与语境不符。20A根据本句中的“and knew how far she had come, despite”并结合上文可知,“我”想起了妹妹七岁时演奏小提琴的糟糕的声音,只有“我”知道她不顾一切(everything)走了多远。四、短文改错。Dear Dave,Im very glad to receive your letter ask for my advice on how to learn Chinese well.
