It had been very _16_ three days for me with lots of meetings. So I was glad to have the _17_ time to make a note of what I _18_ to do the following day. But then came the _19_ that my flight had to be _20_ because there was a problem with the plane.As I sat waiting for my _21_ to be called, I reflected on my last meeting of the day. It was not a business meeting but rather a very enjoyable _22_ with an old business friend I had not seen for over 12 years. Our lunch was spent recalling time gone by _23_ filling each other in on what had happened in our lives over the last 12 years. We both laughed and smiled as we recalled the good times and the great experiences we had _24_ together. At the end of our time together, we both said how much we had _25_ it and that we must do it again.It was great to have this additional time to replay in my _26_ all that we had talked about. I realized how important it was to have regular _27_ of the good times in our life. I was lucky enough to have had the chance to take a short _28_ and reflect on the good things that had happened in my life over the last 12 years.It was somewhat like looking at an old photo album _29_ in a cupboard in your house. There before your eyes are lots of wonderful _30_ that take you back to times and places, and most importantly to those people who are in the _31_.My flight home was finally _32_ three hours later. I smiled as I _33_ the plane and realized that I was not at all _34_ about the delay in the flight, as I had been able to spend the time _35_ on the good times from days gone by.16A.important BbusyCconvenient Duseful17A.pleasant BsatisfyingChappy Dextra18A.had BfailedCneeded Dmanaged19A.announcement BdeclarationCopening Dspeech20A.waited BcancelledCtaken Ddelayed21A.flight BturnCname Dorder22A.negotiation BlunchCparty Ddiscussion23A.as well Bexcept forCas well as Din addition24A.spent BmetCmanaged Dshared25A.got BenjoyedCmade Dpaid26A.thought BspiritCflight Dmind27A.time BplansCreminders Dremainder28A.way BcutCmethod Dbreak29A.stored away Bput onCset aside Dgiven out30A.celebrations BmemoriesCawards Dpresents31A.cupboard BbooksCchildhood Dphotos32A.shouted BphonedCcalled Dcommanded33A.left BboardedCjumped Dreached34A.upset BhappyCcrazy Dsurprised35A.taking BseizingCreflecting Dbringing答案与解析：文章通过叙述“我”在等待飞机的时候对往事的回忆，告诉我们要经常停留下来，回顾生活中的美好事情。16B由下文“with lots of meetings”可知，答案为B项，这里指很“繁忙的(busy)”三天，而不是important“重要的”，useful“有用的”，convenient“方便的”三天。17D依据上文“about 30 minutes before the checkin”可判断，此处指“我”有额外的时间来做别的事，因此答案为D项。18C结合上文语境可知，此处指“我”很乐意有额外的时间来计划第二天“需要(needed)”做的事，所以答案为C项。have to do sth.“不得不做某事”；fail to do sth.“未能做某事”；manage to do sth.“设法做成某事”，均不符合语境。19A依据语境可知，这里应指机场发布了一项通知，因此答案为A项。20D从下文可知，航班是被延误了(delayed)，所以答案为D项。cancel“取消”，不符合文意。21A飞机出了故障，“我”当然是等待“航班(flight)”，因此答案为A项。22B由下文“Our lunch”可知，答案为B项，lunch“午餐”。negotiation“谈判”；party“聚会”；discussion“讨论”，均不符合文意。23C此处用as well as连接recalling和filling两个动名词短语。24Dspend, meet, manage都不能与先行词times和experiences很好地搭配，因此答案为D，share“分享，共有”。25B由“we must do it again”可知，我们很满意那天的聚餐，因此答案为B项。26D句意：有这样额外的时间来回想我们的谈话实在是太好了。回想应是在大脑中，因此答案为mind。thought“思想”；spirit“精神”；flight“航班”，均不符合语境。27C这里说的是“我”的感受：“我”认识到定期回顾生命中的快乐时光是多么重要啊。reminder“引起回忆的事物”；time“时间”；plan“计划”；remainder“剩余物”，依据句意可知，答案为C项。28D由下文“reflect on the good things”可知，这里表示“我”有机会来短暂地放松，因此答案为D项，take a short break“短暂地休息”。29A句意：这就有点像是在看贮藏在家里橱柜里的老相册一样。store away“贮藏”；put on“穿上”；set aside“留出”；give out“分发”。依据句意可知，答案为A项。30B既然“take you back to times and places”，那么应是“许多精彩的回忆”，因此答案为B项。celebration“庆祝”；award“奖品”；present“礼物”，均不符合语境。31D上文已经提到“an old photo album”，因此答案为D项。32C由上文“As I sat waiting for my _21_ to be called”可知，此处答案应为C项。33Bboard the plane“登机”，答案为B项。34A由“I smiled”可知，此时“我”的心情是很愉快的，所以对飞机的晚点并不“心烦(upset)”，故答案为A项。35C由上文“reflected on my last meeting of the day”与“reflect on the good things”可知，答案为C项，reflect on“认真思考”。take on“呈现”；seize on“抓住(可利用的事物)”；bring on“导致，促使生长”，均不符合语境。.阅读理解More surprising, perhaps, than the present difficulties of traditional marriage is the fact that marriage itself is alive and thriving. As Skolnick notes, Americans are a marrying people: relative to Europeans, more of us marry and we marry at a younger age. Moreover, after a drop in the early 1915s, the rate of marriage in the United States is now increasing. Even the divorce rate needs to be taken in this remarriage context: some 30 percent of divorced individuals remarry. Thus, marriage remains by far the preferred way of life for the vast majority of people in our society. What has changed more than marriage is the nuclear family. Twenty five years ago, the typical American family was made up of a husband, a wife, and two or three children. Now, there are many marriages in which couples have decided not to have any children. And there are many marriages where at least some of the children are from the wifes former marriage, or the husbands, or both. Sometimes these children spend all of their time with one parent from the former marriage; sometimes they are shared between the two former spouses (配偶) Thus, one can find every type of family arrangement. There are marriages without children; marriages with children from only the present marriage; marriages with “fulltime” children from both the present and former marriages; marriages with “fulltime” children from the present marriage and “parttime” children from former marriages. There are stepfathers, stepmothers, half brothers, and half sisters. It is not all that unusual for a child to have four parents and eight grandparents! These are great changes from the traditional nuclear family. But even so, even in the midst of all this, there remains one constant：Most Americans spend most of their adult lives married.36. By calling American a marrying people the author means that_.A. Americans are more traditional than EuropeansBAmericans expect more out of marriage than EuropeansC. there are more married couples in U. S. A. than in EuropeDmore of Americans, compared with Europeans, prefer marriage and they accept it at a younger age37. Which of the following can be presented as the picture of todays American families?A. Many types of family arrangements have become socially acceptable.B. A typical American family is made up of only a husband and a wife.C. Americans prefer to have more kids than before.D. There are no nuclear families any more.38. “Parttime” children_.A. spend some of their time with their half brothers and some of their time with their half sistersB. spend all of their time with one parent from the previous marriageC. are shared between the two former spousesD. cannot stay with “fulltime” children39. Even though great changes have taken place in the structure of American families，_.A. the vast majority of Americans still have faith in marriageB. the functions of marriage remain unchangedC. most Americans prefer a second marriageD. most divorced Americans would rather not remarry答案与解析：36D根据第一段第二句“As Skolnick notes, Americans are a marrying people: relative to Europeans, more of us marry and we marry at a younger age.”可知D项为正确答案。37A美国社会接受多种类型的家庭组合方式。文章第二、三段指出，目前美国家庭的组合方式与传统的核心家庭相比发生了很大的变化。这种变化反映在孩子与家庭成员的关系上。分析四个选项，B、D项与事实不符；家庭结构的变化不能说明传统的核心家庭不存在了，因此D项的观点太片面。38C“parttime children”是指父母离婚后由父母交替抚养的孩子。第二段最后一句指出了离婚家庭的两种孩子，即“parttime children”和“fulltime children”。根据第三段的描述，“fulltime children”是指夫妻双方目前的孩子，或目前与现父母住在一起的前婚的孩子；“parttime children”则是由离婚父母交替抚养的孩子。由此判断C项是正确的；A、D项不对；B项所说的是“fulltime children”。39A第一段最后一句和第三段最后一句为本文的主题句，即大多数美国人喜欢过婚姻生活，而且正在过着婚姻生活，这是不变的事实。由此看出，美国人对婚姻是有信心的。本文没有涉及B项和C项的观点。D项不符合文意。9
