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

bus._答案：去掉sight前的thecatch sight of “看见；瞥见”，为固定短语。2With water is on all sides, the local people have to go out by boat._答案：去掉is逗号后没有连接词，故“With water on all sides”是with的独立主格结构。3Rather than riding on a

lying on the ground._答案：measuredmeasuringmeasure 表示“某物的长度为”时，是连系动词，在本句中，trees和measure为逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词作后置定语。5So far as the eyes can see, nothing is to be seen but sand._答案：SoAsas far as the eyes can see “在目所能及的地方”。五、短文改错Last year，I went to Australia for a shortterm study like an international student.One of my classmates suggested we shared our favorite recipes for foods from our own countries during New Years party.We all agreed to this wonderful idea and cooked my unique dishes for the party.Hariyati from Indonesia shared a kind of cookie what was shaped like elephant ears.Susan from South Africa prepared some sweet dumplings packed in several banana leaf.Chiemi from Japan cooked special rice balls mixing with fish.And I was served Daoxiao noodles，my hometownShanxis local food.These variously foods were all delicious.Therefore，my favorite was still Chinese food.【答案】Last year，I went to Australia for a shortterm study an international student.One of my classmates suggested we our favorite recipes for foods from our own countries during New Years party.We all agreed to this wonderful idea and cooked unique dishes for the party.Hariyati from Indonesia shared a kind of cookie was shaped like elephant ears.Susan from South Africa prepared some sweet dumplings packed in several banana .Chiemi from Japan cooked special rice balls with fish.And I served Daoxiao noodles，my hometownShanxis local food.These foods were all delicious.，my favorite was still Chinese food.第一处：like改为as。考查介词。此句意为“去年我作为一个国际学生去澳大利亚短期学习”，as“作为”，like“像一样”。第二处：shared改为share。考查虚拟语气。suggest意思是“建议”时所在宾语从句的谓语只能用“should动词原形”的形式且should可以被省略。第三处：during后加the。考查冠词。可数名词party在句中表示特指，所以其前必须加定冠词the。第四处：my改为our。考查代词。根据上文的“We all agreed to this wonderful idea”可知，句子的主语是We, agreed和cooked为并列谓语，所以my改为our。第五处：what改为that/which。考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，cookie后为定语从句，且从句缺少主语，先行词为名词cookie，所以改为that/which。第六处：leaf改为leaves。考查名词的数。leaf(叶)是可数名词，且其前面有several修饰，所以要用其复数形式leaves。第七处：mixing改为mixed。考查非谓语动词。balls与mix之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故此处用过去分词短语mixed with fish作后置定语。第八处：删除was served中的was。考查动词的语态。serve“供应”，是及物动词。该句宾语是Daoxiao noodles，所以结合上下文和句意应去掉was。第九处：variously改为various。考查形容词。该句中的名词foods应用形容词various(各种各样的)来修饰，所以把variously改为various。第十处：Therefore改为However。考查副词和上下文的逻辑关系。根据下文尤其是still一词可知，上下文是转折关系，所以Therefore改为However。
