C 考查上下文串联。根据26空Ueli, the father of two of my sons, died.可知Ueli是我两个儿子的父亲，也就是说他是我的丈夫。故C正确。23. A 考查并列连词。本句中连词“when”是一个并列连词，意为“在那时”，后句表示意料之外的事情。我的丈夫在回家的路上，在那时他突发心脏病。其余三项均没有这个用法。故A正确。24. B 考查上下文串联。副词interesting有趣地；luckily幸运地；urgently紧急地；nervously紧张地；根据后半句a neighbors sharp eyes had spotted him邻居发现了这一情况。说明这是很幸运的事情。故B正确。25. C 考查介词短语辨析。短语instead of代替，而不是；due to因为，由于；in spite of尽管except for除.之外；尽管医疗人员做出了巨大的努力，但在患病九小时以后，他还是去世了。根据句意可知上下文之间是转折关系，故C项正确。26. C 考查上下文串联。根据24空前he suffered an unexpected heart attack可知他突患心脏病。故C项正确。27. D 考查上下文串联。动词work工作；change改变；happen发生；end结束；根据下文可知我丈夫的器官移植给了很多其他的人，他的生命并没有结束，他的人生故事还在继续。故D项正确。28. A 考查动词辨析。动词decide决定；predict预测；realize意识到；remember记得；自从我遇见他的时候，他就决定了，在他去世以后，如果可能，就把器官捐献出来。故A正确。29. D 考查上下文串联。名词blood血；clothes衣服；money钱；organ器官；根据下文他的眼角膜和心瓣膜都器官都被捐给了他人，说明他早就决定去世以后把自己的器官捐给他人。故D正确。30. B 考查动词辨析。动词challenge挑战；ask请求，要求；advise建议；allow允许；因为丈夫生前决定死后捐献器官，所以在那个晚上我请求医生帮助他实现梦想。动词使用ask sb to do sth请求某人做某事。故B正确。31. B 考查短语辨析。短语e about发生，产生；e true实现；e across遇见；e out结果；开花，出版；我请求医生帮助他实现梦想，短语e true作为宾语补足语，补充说明his wishes的情况。32. A 考查名词辨析。名词arrangement安排；experiment实验；suggestion建议；promise诺言；在医生做出安排以后，我为Ueli无私的行为感到自豪。本句指医生安排好器官捐献。故A正确。33. D 考查副词辨析。副词therefore因此；besides而且；anyhow无论如何，不管怎样；however然而；本句使用however表示转折，一段时间后我就接到一封信告诉我丈夫的角膜成功地移植给了他人。故D正确。34. C 考查常识。当我得知丈夫的角膜移植给他人以后，我非常高兴，因为他的愿望给别人带来了积极的影响。故C正确。35. A 考查上下文串联。名词wish希望；plan计划；rule规则；tip建议；丈夫在去世之前就决定把器官捐献给他人，让他的生命延续下去并给别人的生活带来积极的影响。这是他的愿望。故A正确。 37. A 考查动词辨析。动词inform通知；teach教育；suggest建议；encourage鼓励；我收到一张卡片，通知我一位年轻人成功地接受了我丈夫的心瓣膜，获得了重生。故A正确。38. B 考查动词辨析。动词protect保护；receive收到；like喜欢；accept接受；本句指一位年轻人成功地接受了我丈夫的心瓣膜，获得了重生。故B正确。39. C 考查形容词辨析。形容词anxious焦虑的；patient耐心的；proud自豪的；calm镇定的；听到这个消息我很开心，我相信Ueli也会很自豪，一位自己可以挽救另外一个年轻人的生命。与ABD三项语义无关。故C正确。40. A 考查动词辨析。动词save挽救；control控制；affect影响；plete结束；完成；我的丈夫会很自豪，因为他的心瓣膜成功地挽救了另外一个人的生命。故A正确。【名师点睛】本文中出题者大量利用了上下文串联解题，如根据26空Ueli, the father of two of my sons, died.可知Ueli是我两个儿子的父亲，也就是说他是我的丈夫。D 根据下文他的眼角膜和心瓣膜都器官都被捐给了他人，说明他早就决定去世以后把自己的器官捐给他人。 完形填空题除了注重考查考生对语境的理解外，还经常在完形填空的短文中设置前后互相暗示的考题。这里需要注意的是：若是前面暗示后面，做题相对来说比较容易。但从对历届考题的研究情况来看，这种暗示多为后面暗示前面，也就是说前面的某些填空从当时的情况来看，或是线索不清，或是语境不明，无法填出，但只要我们继续往后看，就会发现此空在后面的某个地方有暗示。所以，考生在做题时一定要充分利用这一特点，以提高做题的准确率。 考点：考查记叙文阅读 第三部分 阅读理解 （共15小题；每小题2分，共30分）第1节 （共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Some people make art with paint, and others use pencil or clay. However, Jean Shin makes sculptures that change everyday objects into thoughtful and beautiful works of art. Shin makes art from broken umbrellas, old clothing or puter parts. Her show “mon Threads” is currently at the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, D.C.One of the first works in the “mon Threads” exhibit looks like glowing orange cave formations ing out of the floor and ceiling. If you move closer to the sculptures, you realize they are made up of thousands of carefully stacked small plastic bottles for storing medicines.Jean Shin made this work, Chemical Balance, by gathering the bottles from friends, family and retirement munities. Like much of Shins art, this work is both about individuals and large groups of people. Each personal object once belonged to an individual. But it takes a large munity of such individuals to make Shins art possible.Chance City is made up of more than thirty-two thousand dollars worth of old lottery tickets. People buy tickets in hopes of winning large amounts of money. Shin collected the tickets in New York City and Washington, D.C. over a period of three years. The small pieces of paper are carefully stacked to create buildings. The sculptures were made using no supports, so they could fall over at any time. The work makes a statement about the unsure nature of money and chance.Jean Shin was born in 1971 in the Republic of Korea. Her parents moved to the United States when she was six years old. Shin studied art at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York. She has chosen to make art that takes a long time to create. She says this is because her parents taught her about the value of hard work.Other works in “mon Threads” include TEXTile. It is a piece of flowing fabric covered with thousands of old puter keys. Visitors can add to the work by typing their own message.Shins latest work is called Everyday Monuments. It is made of almost 2,000 sports awards called trophies(奖品). The trophies showed people doing sports like baseball, tennis or bowling. Shin changed the human forms on every trophy so that each is doing an everyday act like cleaning, driving or carrying shopping bags. The sculpture was influenced by many large monuments in Washington which honor important heroes. Jean Shins smaller monument celebrates the heroism of people in their everyday actions. 41How many works made by Jean Shin are mentioned in the text?A. 6. B. 5.C. 4. D. 7.42. It can be inferred from the text that Jean Shins works is _.A. dirty but beautiful B. made from rubbishC. environmental and meaningfulD. valuable and natural43. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A. Jean Shins parents took a long time to teach her art.B. Jean Shin created Chance City in hopes of winning large amounts of money.C. Everyday Monuments was created to honor important heroes.D. Visitors can participate in the creation of the work TEXTile.44. Which of the following could be the best title of the text?A. The life of Jean Shin B. Jean Shin Makes Art from Everyday ObjectsC. Sculptures Made by Jean ShinD. Jean Shins Latest Work【答案】41C42C43D44B【解析】试题分析：本文介绍了Jean Shin把日常生活中的废料改变成了艺术品，向人们传递节能环保的信息。 42. C 推理判断题。根据文章中Jean Shin所使用的原料the floor and ceiling、small plastic bottles for storing medicines、old lottery tickets等等可知他的作品很环保。再根据The work makes a statement about the unsure nature of money and chance.可知他的每一个作品都向人们传递出一些有意义的人生感悟。所以这些作品也是很有意义的。故C项正确。43. D 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句Visitors can add to the work by typing their own message.可知游客们可以向TEXTile上添加材料。故D项说法正确。【名师点睛】 本文属于主旨大意题中的标题概括题。对文章主旨大意的考察，不仅可以直接以理解段落及文章的主旨大意的形式出现，而且也可以用选择或拟定文章标题的形式出现。因此，选择文章标题，首先可以按照主旨大意的确定方式，先弄清文章的主旨大意，再定标题。 标题位于文章之首，用来高度概括文章内容，点明文章主题。它是段落中心思想最精练的表达形式。标题可帮助读者迅速推测出整篇文章的主要内容，抓住文章的中心，把握作者的观点和意图。那么如何选择文章的标题呢？ 首先，要考虑标题对文章的概括性或覆盖面如何。一般要求能覆盖全文内容，体 现文章主旨。要避免下列三种情况：概括不够（多表现为部分代整体，从而导致范围太小）；过度概括（多表现为脱离本文章内容的发挥）；以事实、细节替代抽象具体的大意。 其次，要考虑标题的针对性，即标题范围要恰当，针对性强。要在阅读原文的基础上， 仔细考虑所选标题与文章主题是否有密切的关系。既不能太大，也不能太小，太大则中心就不突出，太小也发挥不了应起的作用；精确度高，不能随意改变语言的表意程度及色彩。它可以是单词、短语，也可以是句子。 再次要注意标题的醒目性，标题的选择要简洁、突出、新颖，标题是文章的点睛之笔，是文章的灵魂和门面。标题的好坏往往影响了文章的可读性，读者常常从标题上决定文章的阅读取舍。故标题一般比较醒目，甚至比较离奇，以此来吸引读者对文章的兴趣。 最后要注意，要恰当地选好标题，还需要了解标题的基本拟定方法。一般说来，拟定标题是以话题为核心，与控制性概念的词按一定的语法浓缩为概括主题句或中心思想的词组。考点：考查记叙文阅读 BRecently there has been a discussion on a website about “what would you miss most and least if you were stuck on a desert island?”Here are some of the answers:Post 1Steve USAHi, everyone.

Indeed, its western flavor has earned it the title Little Paris of Ukraine.For centuries Lviv, located 50 kilometers from the Poland-Ukraine border, was an important stopping point on the main trade routes between the east and west. During the Renaissance, the city could afford Italys finest architects because every merchant passing through was forced to stay and sell their goods for at least two weeks. It was a very smart move to collect money from them, said Yaroslav Hrytsak, a local historian, adding, It kept the wealth in the city, and that wealth has been transformed into architectural richness.Many historic buildings remain but Lvivs prosperity didnt survive its bloody history. Over the centuries, the city fell under the rule of Poland, Austria, Austria-Hungary, Russia and the Nazi Germany. In addition, both Sweden and Turkey tried unsuccessfully to conquer the city. Then for almost half a century Lviv was ruled by the Soviet Union (苏联). With that, the city was condemned to relative obscurity(无闻). But recently things have started to change. Lviv experienced a sudden 40% increase in tourism in earlyxx, which was the highest rate in Europe. Just last month, its gates opened even wider, when Lviv became a host city for the Euro xx football championships. So how has this happened? With the Soviet collapse, some saw new opportunities for reviving Lvivs former wealth and fame.Limelight networks is a US-founded pany. Its one of many digital tech firms to have opened offices in Lviv over the past few years. It had good growth and experience in the US, however, the pany needs more talent to do the new cool projects and products for our customers. This is why were here in Ukraine. said CEO of Limelight networks.Lvivs unexpected abundance of I.T. talent is in fact a legacy(遗产) of the former Soviet Union. To help the military, many Soviet universities focused on turning out world-class engineers and Lvivs university is still producing them. Now, the city is home to 23 higher education institutions.Its clear that the city of Lviv does not intend to remain a hidden jewel for much longer.48Which of the following countries didnt rule Lviv in history? A. Sweden B. Poland C. Russia D. Germany 49Why did Limelight networks open offices in Lviv? A. Because of Lvivs cheap work force. B. Because of Lvivs beautiful scenery. C. Because of Lvivs abundant IT talent. D. Because of Lvivs rich natural resources. 50The passage implies that _. A. it is likely that more universities will be set up in Lviv. B. it is difficult for Lviv to revive its former wealth and fame. C. it is possible that Lviv will bee a European cultural capital. D. it wont be long before Lviv regains its former fame.【答案】48A49C50D【名师点睛】 本文考查的是推理题，根据This is why were here in Ukraine. said CEO of Limelight networks.这是就是为什么Limelight来到乌克兰的原因。说明前句the pany needs more talent to do the new cool projects and products for our customers.在原因。属于利用因果关系解题的因果推断题。此类题要求考生根据已知结果推测导致结果的可能原因或根据已有的原因推断可能的结果。考生要准确掌握文章的内涵，理解文章的真正含义。最关键的是要找准事物间存在的因果关系信息，根据已有信息，进行分析判断推理，从而推出最符合逻辑的原因或判断出最可能导致的结果。 例题1：(xx年全国卷I、II B篇) 60.
