解析

试题分析:短文大意:本文讲的是一个盲人乘客的故事,同时也是非常感人的爱情故事。苏珊在一次事故中双目失明是不幸的,但又是幸福的,她有一个爱她的丈夫。
小题1:考查动词及语境理解。句意:她付了钱,然后,用手触摸座位,坐在其中的一个。 Touch触摸;catch抓住;take带走,拿走。Feel感觉。盲人是看不见的,所有的事情都是靠摸索的,这是常识性问题。据此可知应该选择feel摸索,感知,而不是“有目的”地去触碰,touch。故选D
小题2:考查名词及语境理解。句意:因意外事故她突然被抛进了一个黑暗世界。 Weakness弱; sickness       疾病;darkness 黑暗;sadness悲伤。盲人陷入到黑暗的世界,这种表达在我们中文章也有,所也明显应该是a world of darkness。故选C。
小题3:考查动词及语境理解。句意:最后,苏珊觉得可以回到她的工作,但她将如何到达那里? return        返回,归还;used用; reply回答; go去。人残志不残。他想回到工作当中,作返回来讲,return是一个非及物动词。故选A。
小题4:考查形容词及语境理解。句意:但是她现在很害怕来避开自己的城市。 Tired累的; surprised       惊奇的;excited 兴奋的; frightened 恐惧的,害怕的。frightened表示恐惧。故选D。
小题5:考查连词及语境理解。句意:马克自愿和苏珊每天早上和晚上乘巴士直到她可以自己可以料理自己。 When当……的时候; as当……的时候; until 直到;after在……之后。until在这里是连词,引导时间状语从句。故选C。
小题6:考查名词及语境理解。句意:他教她如何依靠她的其他感觉,尤其是听力,来确保她在哪里。 feelings      感情;places地方;skills 技能;senses感觉。盲人失去的是sight,sense还是存在的。故选D。
小题7:考查介词短语及语境理解。句意:最后,苏珊决定,她已准备好依靠自己旅行。on her own靠自己; with him和他在一起; of her 她的; on foot 步行。on one’s own表示靠自己,本文一直都是在表扬这位盲人的毅力和坚持,希望能够靠自己来维持自己的正常生活。故选A。
小题8:考查短语及语境理解。句意:星期五早上,苏珊像往常一样乘公交车去上班。 as usual像往常一样;the same as和…一样; as well 也;as we know正如我们所知道的。as usual表示经常发生的动作再次发生。故选A。
小题9:考查疑问词及语境理解。句意:苏珊好奇,问司机为什么。 what 什么; how 怎么; why         为什么;who谁。故选C。
小题10:考查形容词及语境理解。句意:在过去的几周里,每天早上有一个穿着制服的漂亮绅士站在角落里看着你。 first 第一,首先; past 过去的;same 同样的;next下一个。在过去的几个星期中,英文应该是for the past weeks,next表示的是下周,还没有发生的事情是不可能用现在完成时的,而且for+一段时间,是现在完成时的时间状语标志。故选B。

The mystery stories of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle are famous all over the world.
The detective in his stories is called Sherlock Holmes. He solves mysteries in a most surprising way. His assistant, Dr Watson, watches with admiration and then writes up the story of the mystery afterwards.
This is a useful story writing skill. Because Watson is not very clever, the story remains a mystery until the end. The readers can sometimes pick up some clues before he does! Then, to make Watson understand the mystery, Holmes has to explain it all, step by step. So we, the readers, get to see it step by step too. Watson is almost as good a character in the story as Sherlock Holmes!
The very first time they meet, Holmes greatly surprises Watson. When they are first introduced, Holmes says to Watson, ‘How do you do? I see you have been to Afghanistan(阿富汗).’
Watson is too amazed by this to ask Holmes how he knows this. Watson has, indeed, been to Afghanistan. Later, he asks Holmes about it. Holmes explains that there is nothing magical about what he does. He gets to know it all by very, very careful observation(观察).
Observation One
Watson was introduced to Holmes as a doctor. Yet Holmes thought that the way he stood and walked made him seem like a soldier. So, this meant he was probably an army doctor.
Observation Two
Watson"s face was quite dark skinned. But his wrists were pale. So his dark face was probably sun burnt. This meant that he had been to a hot, sunny country.
Observation Three
At the time, the British army had soldiers at bases in many parts of the world. So there were still a lot of places to choose from. However, Holmes saw that Watson looked very tired and he was always holding his left arm, as if it was painful. So, he had probably been with the army to a place where they were fighting. There was only one place where the British army was fighting at that time: Afghanistan.
小题1:The writer most probably created the character, Dr Watson, to ______.
A.give Holmes help when solving mysteries
B.show Holmes" careful observation
C.help readers pick up some clues about the mystery
D.get readers to see the mystery step by step
小题2: The first time they meet, ______.
A.Holmes explains how he knows Watson has been to Afghanistan
B.Holmes surprises Watson by telling that he has been to Afghanistan
C.Watson tells Holmes he has been to Afghanistan
D.Watson asks Holmes how he knows he has been to Afghanistan
小题3:From the passage we know that the British army ______ at that time.
A.only had soldiers in Afghanistan
B.had many army doctors at bases in many parts of the world
C.was fighting with several countries
D.was fighting with Afghanistan

Sir Steven Redgrave—Winner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals
“In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes (糖尿病), believing the profession trained for the whole of my life ended, I felt very sorry. Then one of my friends said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing. That was it—the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believed in myself. I am not saying that it isn’t difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn’t finished yet. Nothing is to stand in my way.”

Karen Pickering—Swimming World Champion (冠军)
“I swim 4 hours a day, 6 days a week. I manage that amount of work by putting it on top of my diary. This is the key to success—you can’t follow a profession in any field without being well-organized. Make a list of what you believe you can achieve. Trust yourself, write down your goals for the day, however small they are, and you’ll be a step closer to achieving them.”
Kristen Stewart—Actress

“When things are getting hard, a voice inside my head tells me that I can’t achieve anything. Then, there are other distractions, such as family or hobbies. The key is to give most of your attention to one thing. When I feel nervous, it helps a lot to repeat words such as ‘focus’ , ‘calm’, ‘peace’, either out loud or silently in my mind. It makes me feel more in control and increases my confidence. This is a habit and is a powerful psychological(心理学的) tool.”

I stood there listening to my father shout at top of his voice. The look on his face said that one of us had done something wrong.
“Which one of you did this?”
We all looked down at the step. There was child’s handwriting in chalk there. I was very frightened. I hope no one could see it. Would he guess it was me? I was so scared. When he asked me, I lied, “Not me, dad.” The other denied(否认) it as well. Of course, we all knew that one of us must have done it. But as the youngest and smallest of the three, I just couldn’t find courage to tell the truth.
To find out who had written on the step, Father gave us each a piece of paper and a pencil. “I want each of you to write exactly what you see on the step.” I tried my best to write the words differently. I didn’t want dad to be able to tell it was me.
He gathered up our paper and looked at them. “Since none of you will say yes, then I will punish you all.” I stood there and said nothing. The last thing I wanted was for Dad to punish me!
“I did it.” My sister walked forward and said she had done something she hadn’t. she was punished for a month.
We didn’t talk about that day for many years. Not until we were all older and I knew it was safe to finally tell my dad it was really me. I always felt sorry because of it. That was the last time I let anyone take the blame for me. I told myself, “One must see to what he or she has done.”
