It wasnt until I _2_(person) took part in the activity that I understood the real _3_(mean) of it. I was in Senior 2 at the time. _4_that special night, all the Senior 3 students stood in the corridors (走廊) and looked down at the younger students below. _5_(vary) cheers started to resound throughout the school, wave after wave. “Believe in yourself! You deserve to win！” _6_(see) everyones smiling faces around me, I thought of _7_famous quote from the American philosopher Henry David Thoreau: What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you bee by achieving your goals. Soon it will be my turn to _8_(bless) in this way,_9_also means I will have to say goodbye to my school. Sad as it will be, being cheered on by so many students will still be one of the brightest _10_(time) of my life.1_ 2._ 3._ 4._ 5._ 6._ 7._ 8._ 9._ 10._ 篇章导读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者讲述了自己学校为即将参加高考的高三学生加油鼓励的独特传统。作者认为这种祝福方式让他倍受鼓舞，且当时的场景成为他记忆中最为闪亮的时刻之一。1lower考查形容词比较级。此处暗含了对比。对于高三的学生来说，高一和高二的学生就是较低年级的学生，所以要用比较级，故填lower。2personally考查词性转换。设空处修饰动词短语took part in，应用副词，故填personally。3meaning考查词性转换。设空处作understood的宾语，应用名词形式，故填meaning。4On考查介词。此处表述：在那个特殊的晚上。在具体的某一天晚上要用介词on，句首单词注意首字母大写，故填On。5Various考查词性转换。此处应用形容词作定语修饰名词cheers，故填Various “各种各样的”。6Seeing考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，此处应用非谓语动词，动词see和其逻辑主语I之间是主动关系，所以要用现在分词作状语，故填Seeing。7a考查冠词。quote是可数名词，意为“引语；引文”，而且此处表示泛指概念，故填不定冠词a。8be blessed考查非谓语动词。此处表述很快就轮到“我”收到这种方式的祝福。It is ones turn to do sth.为固定句型，意为“轮到某人去做某事”，根据句意可知，此句中“我”和bless之间是被动关系，应用不定式的被动形式，故填be blessed。9which考查定语从句的引导词。两个句子中没有连词，该空指代前面一句话的内容，而且在从句中作主语，所以此处应用which引导非限制性定语从句，故填which。10times考查名词的复数。当作“时光；岁月”讲时，time为可数名词；“one ofthe形容词最高级可数名词复数”意为“最的之一”。故填times。*完形填空。阅读下面短文，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。A Letter to My DadFour years ago we found out about the cancer growing inside you.You told me the news that it had

left是“你还剩下多长时间”的意思，left用作后置定语。故选B项。2C根据该空后的people older than me可判断，作者以为父(母)亲垂死这件事只会发生在比他年龄更大的人身上。故选C项。3Din doubt意为“怀疑”；in anger意为“生气地”；in vain 意为“徒劳无益地”；in shock意为“震惊地；吃惊地”。听到父亲患癌这件事，作者当然是长时间地感到震惊。故选D项。刷有所得方法：做完形填空题时，有些题要注意该空前后的介词、副词等。有时需要分别把选项与前后的介词、副词相搭配，再判断它们搭配后哪个短语的意思更符合上下文的逻辑。4A根据下文But there was nothing I could do.可知，作者什么都做不了，由此可推测，此处指作者感到无能为力。powerless意为“无能为力的”；nervous意为“紧张不安的；焦虑的”；lost意为“迷路的；不知所措的”；bored意为“厌烦的；烦闷的”。根据语境可知选A项。5A根据下文and take the cancer out可知，此处指作者希望可以进入父亲的身体拿走癌细胞。reach into意为“伸进；伸入”；turn to意为“转向；求助于”；stand by意为“袖手旁观；支持”；look into意为“调查”。故选A项。6B根据该空后面的You reacted well to treatment and youre still here可知，作者的父亲对治疗反应很好并且依然还活着，所以作者一家感觉是幸运的(lucky)。故选B项。confused意为“困惑的；混乱的”；active意为“积极的”；hopeless意为“没有希望的”。7C父亲的治疗效果很好，“我们”很幸运，虽然不知道父亲还能坚持多久，但是他还活着。better意为“更好”；deeper意为“更深”；longer意为“更长久”；further意为“更远”。故选C项。8B根据设空后的everything youve given me可知，作者在此表达对父亲的感激之情。eager意为“渴望的；热切的”；grateful意为“感激的”；regretful意为“遗憾的；后悔的”；desperate意为“绝望的”。故选B项。9D句意为：好像在我们的父子关系上就是这不成文的规则阻止了这句话被说出口。unwritten rule意为“不成文的规则”，符合语境。故选D项。10A根据下文的Youre a man conservative和You keep them to yourself可知，父亲很保守，所以这一不成文的规则阻止了父爱的表达。prevent意为“阻止；防止”；change意为“改变”；destroy 意为“破坏；摧毁”；transform意为“使改观；使转化”。故选A项。11Bguarded意为“谨慎的”，结合下文的You keep them to yourself可知，此处指父亲是一个保守的、对情感(feelings)谨慎的人。conservative and guarded with your feelings作后置定语，修饰前面的a man。故选B项。illness意为“疾病”；belongings意为“所有物”；opinion意为“观点”。12B根据前文对父亲的描述conservative, guarded with your _可知，父亲收敛自己的感情，希望别人也这样做。require意为“要求”；expect意为“期望；盼望”；allow意为“允许”；persuade意为“劝说；说服”。故选B项。13C根据下文的Ive seen your proud looks可知，父亲是很在意儿子的。lie意为“撒谎”；understand意为“理解”；care意为“在意；在乎”；fear意为“害怕”。故选C项。14A根据前面的your proud looks可知，父亲自豪的应该是作者取得的成就(achievements)。故选A项。difficulty意为“困难”；goal意为“目标”；experience意为“经历”。15D根据设空后的when things havent gone well及I remember all the offers of help.可知，当事情进展不顺利时，父亲会主动提供帮助，因此可知，父亲是关心儿子的。power意为“力量；权力”；anger意为“愤怒；生气”；curiosity意为“好奇心”；concern意为“担心；忧虑”。故选D项。16D结合下文I wish you could tell me youre _ and I could tell you I love you.可知，作者希望父亲能够告诉他父亲是如何想的，作者也能告诉父亲作者爱他。由此可推测，此处指作者希望能够与父亲谈论他们对彼此意味着(mean)什么。故选D项。17C根据上文的your proud looks可知，此处指作者希望父亲能够告诉他父亲为他而自豪。conservative意为“守旧的；保守的”；brave意为“勇敢的”；proud 意为“骄傲的；自豪的”；helpful 意为“有帮助的”。故选C项。18A根据上一题解析及空后的masculinity可知，此处指作者希望这些荒谬的大男子观念不会在他和父亲的心中根深蒂固。absurd意为“荒唐的；可笑的”，符合语境。故选A项。important意为“重要的”；useful意为“有用的”；popular意为“流行的”。19C根据语境可知，此处指作者希望这样的大男子观念不要根深蒂固。lost

According to a survey made by some experts, about 47% urban residents regularly. More people will join the army of travelers in the future.Facing this tendency, we cant help some underlying factors that are responsible. In the very first place, the further development of reform and opening up, Chinese peoples living standards have been greatly improved，and therefore, most of can afford to travel around. Whats more, it is believed that people now take more positive attitude to tourism, and regard it as a lifestyle. In ， tourism facilities are being better and better. For example, transportation develops fast, many scenic spots are available now.难项分析：第一处：tourtourism考查名词辨析。根据语境可知，此处指中国的旅游业，应用tourism，而tour一般指一次具体的观光旅游。故将tour改为tourism。第七处：whomthem考查代词。此句中and连接并列分句，因而其后不可以接定语从句；后一分句缺少主语，of后的代词指代上文提到的Chinese people，故将whom改为them作介词of的宾语。第十处：butand考查连词。transportation develops fast与many scenic spots are available之间为并列与递进的关系，而不是转折关系，故用连词and连接。*
