Then I wouldnt have been feeling so worried now.答案：had looked由语境和句子结构可判断if only后应用虚拟语气；由时间状语a few days ago 可知表示与过去事实相反，故应填had looked。look ahead “向前看；为将来打算”。7This is a historic building _(date) back to the 17th century.答案：datingdate back todate from表示“追溯到”，无进行时，无被动语态，句中已有谓语动词is，且building和date back to存在逻辑上的主谓关系，故应填现在分词dating作后置定语。8I am fed up _this weather; its time we had some sunshine.答案：withbe fed up with “受够了；厌烦”。9Sometimes we went ahead and did it, regardless _the consequences.答案：ofregardless of “不管；不顾”。10While working out the problem, you should pay more attention to the _(accurate)答案：accuracy由空格前的冠词the可知，此处填名词形式。三、完形填空。On Christmas Eve，an old man experienced an act of warmth from a local store.The man，who asked not to be identified，was sent home from the emergency room，still not feeling well enough to _1_.The nurses ignored that he was still dizzy and did not feel _2_ behind the wheel.The nurses insisted he was fine and helped put him in his car.Less than a mile down the road his _3_ started playing tricks on him.He thought _4_ he got something and _5_ for several minutes he would be OK._6_， there was a St.Louis Bread pany store nearby.Then he entered the store and spoke through the window，having very little _7_.At first，the order taker could not understand him.He explained that he just needed a slice of bread，or something light and he only had a couple dollars in _8_.The girl in the window asked him to _9_ while she checked what had been left in the bakery.A few moments later she came back with a large smile on her face and _10_ in her hand.She _11_ presented a loaf of bread and a fancy chocolate cake to the man and said that they were _12_ her.The man offered up her the _13_ and it was quickly turned down.The employee asked if the man was OK to drive and offered to _14_ a police officer in the dining room to follow him home.The man was so _15_ for the generosity of the employee.Not just because she gave him enough bread to help him feel better，but she did it with a(n) _16_.He wasnt looked down upon or _17_ insultingly.The man said it helped him feel better emotionally as well after a _18_ day in the hospital.This story goes to show that one simple loaf of bread can not only _19_ a person for a few meals，but wake the _20_ and help restore the faith in mankind.1A.eat BdriveCsurvive Dwalk2A.peaceful BnervousCfortable Dfearful3A.nurse BcoldnessCcar Deyesight4A.though BbeforeCif Dbecause5A.shopped BcookedCchewed Dlooked6A.Fortunately BImmediatelyCSlowly DObviously7A.sleep BgasCcourage Dvoice8A.change BcontrolCshape Dnumber9A.wait BthinkCmove Dlisten10A.package BwineCfood Dcash11A.hesitantly BcheerfullyCregretfully Dcalmly12A.on BinCfor Dwith13A.reward BserviceCgratitude Dmoney14A.request BorderCforbid Dpermit15A.anxious BreadyCgrateful Dfrightened16A.ambition BsmileCnod Dwish17A.respected BlovedCtreated Dadmired18A.special BhappyCbusy Dtough19A.feed BsaveCstarve Dattract20A.animals BfamilyCbeggar Dsoul【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过讲述一位身体不适的老人在医院受到的粗暴对待和在面包店受到的热情关怀，批评了势利和冷漠的社会现象，赞扬了人性的善良和热情。1B考查动词辨析。根据下文中的“behind the wheel”和“put him in his car”可知，此处指老人还没有恢复到能够自己开车的程度。故选B。2C考查形容词辨析。A项意为“平静的”；B项意为“紧张的”；C项意为“舒服的”；D项意为“害怕的”。根据本句中的“he was still dizzy”可知，他还不舒服，不宜开车。故选C。3D考查名词辨析。A项意为“护士”；B项意为“寒冷”；C项意为“汽车”；D项意为“视力”。根据下文老人认为自己弄点东西吃就没事了可知，他觉得自己可能太饿了，以至于有点眼花。因此，应该是视力在和他开玩笑。故选D。4C考查连词辨析。根据语境可知，此处指他如果能吃点东西就会好了。应用if引导条件状语从句。故选C。5C考查动词辨析。根据前面的“got something”和下文可知，此处指与吃相关的动作。C项意为“咀嚼”，符合语境。故选C。6A考查副词辨析。A项意为“幸运地，幸亏”；B项意为“立刻”；C项意为“慢慢地”；D项意为“明显地”。前一句讲到老人觉得如果能有东西吃可能就没事了，后面说正好附近有家面包店，所以这是幸运的。故选A。7D考查名词辨析。A项意为“睡眠”；B项意为“汽油，煤气”；C项意为“勇气”；D项意为“声音”。根据前文讲到老人感到不适、头昏眼花可知，此处指他没力气说话，所以说话声音很小。故选D。8A考查名词辨析。此处老人解释自己只有几块钱零钱，表示钱不多的意思。change意为“零钱”，符合语境。故选A。9A考查动词辨析。面包店的女孩要看一下店里还有什么可给老人吃，所以她让老人稍等一下。A项意为“等待”，符合语境。故选A。10C考查名词辨析。女孩是去给老人找吃的，所以她回来时应该是手里拿着食物。故选C。11B考查副词辨析。A项意为“犹豫地”；B项意为“开心地”；C项意为“遗憾地”；D项意为“冷静地”。根据上一句中的“with a large smile on her face”可知，女孩找到了食物给老人吃，应会很开心。故选B。12A考查介词辨析。sth.be on sb.意为“某物由某人付账”。此处指女孩说给老人的这些食物由她买单。故选A。13D考查名词辨析。前文讲到女孩要为老人买单，所以此处表示老人要把钱给女孩。故选D。14A考查动词辨析。面包店的女店员察觉到老人身体不适，因此问他能否自己开车，并请求在店里就餐的警官陪他回家。request sb.to do sth.意为“请求某人做某事”，符合语境。故选A。15C考查形容词辨析。A项意为“焦虑的”；B项意为“现成的，情愿的”；C项意为“感谢的”；D项意为“害怕的”。老人非常感激店员的这种慷慨和热情。故选C。16B考查名词辨析。根据语境和上文中的“with a large smile”可知，老人之所以感谢女孩不仅仅是因为她送他吃的，也是因为女孩在做这些事的时候面带笑容。故选B。17C考查动词辨析。根据上文女孩对待老人的态度可知，他没有被瞧不起或被粗暴地对待。故选C。18D考查形容词辨析。根据上文中对老人在医院的经历可知，他受到了护士粗暴的对待，所以在医院的一天是艰难的。tough意为“艰难的，不容易的”，符合语境。故选D。19A考查动词辨析。句意为：这个故事表明一条面包不仅能让人吃好几顿，还能唤醒人们的灵魂，有助于重拾对人性的信心。feed意为“为提供食物”，符合语境。故选A。20D考查名词辨析。句意为：这个故事表明一条面包不仅能让人吃好几顿，还能唤醒人们的灵魂，有助于重拾对人性的信心。soul意为“灵魂，精神”，符合语境。故选D。亮点句积累：This story goes to show that one simple loaf of bread can not only feed a person for a few meals，but wake the soul and help restore the faith in mankind.(最后一段)译文：这个故事表明一条面包不仅能让人吃好几顿，还能唤醒人们的灵魂，有助于人们重拾对人性的信心。词汇积累：identify v认出，同情emergency n紧急情况present v呈现四、单句改错。1Assumed that the weather is favorable, farmers will have a good harvest._答案：AssumedAssumingAssuming that . “假定/假设”，常位于句首作状语。2He could have finished it on schedule, but anyhow he fell behind._答案：anyhowsomehowsomehow “不知怎么地；以某种方式”。anyhowanyway “尽管如此”。3Im very sorry to interrupt with you, but I have something important to tell you._答案：去掉withinterrupt为及物动词，interrupt sb./sth. “打断某人/某事”。4We had been waiting for you for an hour;
