解析
试题分析：作者和女儿一起做飞机去看望丈夫，但是由于登记卡的问题她们没能够坐在一起，而且别人也拒绝和它们换座位，和她们有着类似情况的还有一位母亲和她的三个孩子，就当她们无可奈何时，一队童子军主动帮助了她们。
小题1:B形容词辨析。A.担忧的；B.兴奋的；C. 焦虑的； D. 渴望的。根据后面句的原因状语从句because we hadn"t seen him for five months,可以推测在即将见到几个月未曾见面的丈夫（或者女儿的父亲）时，作者和女儿非常兴奋，答案选B。
小题2:D动词辨析。 A.爱；B. 认为；C. 想象；D. 想念。从前句表示的原因because we hadn"t seen him for five months,可以推测孩子会非常想念父亲，答案选D。
小题3:A形容词辨析。A. 满的； B. 拥挤的；C. 空的； D. 超重的。根据下文作者的讲述可知从Charlotte到Miami的航班是满载着乘客，而crowded则表达拥挤混乱之意，不符合飞机的实际状况，答案选A。
小题4:B动词辨析。A. 到达 ；B. 到达； C. 着陆 ；D. 敲击。reach 是及物动词“到达”，不和介词搭配；land意思是“降落”，knock“撞、敲”均不符合语境，arrive in 是“到达”的意思，故答案选B。
小题5:C动词辨析。A. 分离； B. 阻碍；C. 分开； D. 联系。根据and前面部分Kallie and I could not get seats together可知作者和女儿没有坐在一起，答案选C。
小题6:D形容词辨析。A. 万一；B. 即使；C. 好像；D. 为的是。根据上文可知作者和女儿没有坐在一起，想和别人换座位为的是能坐在一起，方便照顾女儿，所以此处表示目的，选D。
小题7:B动词辨析。A. 阻止； B. 拒绝；C. 同意；D. 许诺。根据两名乘客说的话they thought they should stay in their assigned seats.可知他们没有答应作者换座位的请求，答案选B。
小题8:A动词辨析。A. 恐慌； B. 匆忙；C. 冲；D. 座位。从下文的叙述可知坐在作者前面的一个母亲和三个孩子都没有坐在一起，孩子们不能受到照顾，根据She was in tears,判断当时母亲和孩子们内心慌乱，答案选A。
小题9:C副词辨析。A. 然而 ；B. 而且； C. 因此；D. 代替。由上句内容There had been a mistake in their boarding passes 和下句内容the whole family had been split up可知前后是因果关系，故答案选C。
小题10:D副词辨析。A. 也； B. 甚至； C.曾经； D.也。根据上文内容可知作者想换座位遭到了别人的拒绝，此时的这位母亲同样也遭到了拒绝，答案选D。
小题11:A形容词辨析。A. 担忧的； B. 好奇的；C. 特别的； D. 满意的。由情理判断母亲对于没在自己身边的孩子非常担心，答案选A，其余选项不合语境。
小题12:B动词辨析。A. 建议； B. 提供； C. 供应； D. 支持。从词的搭配可知offer 后可以跟不定式，表示“主动提供”，而其他动词没有此用法，故答案选B。
小题13:C名词辨析。 A.责任 ；B. 观看； C.木板，甲板；D. 斑点。on duty“值日”；on watch “值班，监视”；on board“在飞机或轮船上”on the spot“当场”。根据文章内容可知这是在飞机上发生的事情，所以答案选C。
小题14:D动词辨析。A. 花费 ；B. 花费； C.付款 ；D. 度过。spend time doing sth “花费时间做某事”，答案选D。句意：他用几分钟重新安排了一下他的队员……
小题15:B形容词辨析。A. 方便的；B. 有效的，可以使用的；C. 可能的； D. 舒服的。从语境可知童子军的队长重新安排队友的位置为的是能够给母子四人腾出足够的地方，答案选B。
小题16:D名词辨析。A. 允许；B. 借口；C.道歉 ；D. 抱怨。根据and前面的形容词cheerfully可知他们欣然接受队长的安排，而没有丝毫勉强和抱怨，答案选D。
小题17:A名词辨析。A. 想法；B. 结尾； C. 感觉 ；D. 情感。根据情理判断当孩子一想到不能挨着妈妈坐的时候，会感觉恐慌，短语：at the thought of“一想到……”，答案选A。
小题18:D副词辨析。A.立刻；B. 迷惑地 ；C.清楚地；D. 惊讶地。从当时的情景可知在作者没有提出请求的情况下，一个陌生人主动帮助他们，让作者感到惊喜，答案选D。。
小题19:B动词形容词辨析。A. 开大； B.转身；C. 结果是；D. 避开。根据语境可知此处那个人转身对作者说话，其余不符合语境，答案选B。
小题20:D动词辨析。A.插入； B. 保持；C.挥动；D. 提及。由上文可知此处是对上文出现的our进行解释，refer to“指的是”，所以答案选D。 |
举一反三
Dear Dad,
Today I was at the shopping mall and I spent a lot of time reading the Father"s Day cards. They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you. Yet as I selected and read, it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you.
You"ll soon be 84 years old, Dad, and you and I will have had 55 Father"s Days together. I haven"t always been with you on Father"s Day but I"ve always been with you in my heart.
You know, Dad, there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap. You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other.
The Father-Daughter Duel shifted into high gear ( 档位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the "54 Chevy whether you liked it or not. The police officer who sent me home, after you reported the Chevy stolen, didn"t have much tolerance for a stubborn 16 year old, while you were so tolerant about it, Dad, and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life.
Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you liked, and things really turned around when we began making babies right and left. Somewhere along the line, the generation gap disappeared. I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine.
But the strangest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car. It didn"t immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car. It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere. Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day.
I guess what I"m trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a father on Father"s Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking. It"s about loving someone more than words can say, and it"s wishing that never had to end.
I love you, Dad.
Love,
Jenny

Well, when I returned to the kids, you can image my when I discovered that Joshua was the winner from his class! Proud and excited, he told everyone, “I won the contest! I it! ”

Some people succeed in unbelievable ways.
Roussel was orphaned at the age of eight and went to live with his grandfather. He built on the music he had learned from his mother, entertaining himself by reading through the family music collection and playing his favorite songs on the piano.
Three years later, Roussel’s grandfather died, and his aunt adopted him. Her husband arranged for young Albert to take regular piano lessons. Summer vacations at a Belgian seaside resort added a second love to his life -- the sea. He studied to be a naval cadet (海军学员), but still made time to study music.
In the French Navy, while he served on a warship based at Cherbourg, he and two friends found the time to play the music of Beethoven and other composes (作曲家). Roussel also began composing. At the Church of the Trinity in Cherbourg on Christmas Day 1892, he had his first performance as a composer.
That success encouraged Roussel to write a wedding march, and one of his fellow offices offered to show it to a well-known conductor (指挥家), Edouard Colonne. When Roussel’s friend returned with the manuscript (手稿), he reported that Colonne had advised Roussel to give up his naval career and devote his life to music.
Not long afterwards, at the age of 25, Roussel did just that. He applied characters that he had developed in the navy to his composing and became a major force in twentieth century French music. As for Eduoard Colonne’s inspiring advice that Roussel devote his life to music, Roussel"s navy friend later admitted that he had made it up and that he had never even shown Roussel"s manuscript to the conductor.
小题1:Which of the following shows the right order of the story?
a. Roussel gave up his naval career.
b. Roussel was adopted by his aunt.
c. Roussel read through the family music collection.
d. Roussel had his first performance as a composer in Cherbourg.| A．c, b, d, a | B．b. c, d, a | C．b, c, a. d | D．c, b, a, d |
小题2:What ______ did played the most important part in Roussel"s final success.| A．his mother | B．the husband of his aunt | | C．his navy friend | D．Edouard Colonne |
小题3:We can infer from the article that______.| A．Roussel"s aunt adopted him after his grandfather died. | | B．Roussel read through the family music collection in his grandfather"s. | | C．Colonne advised Roussel to give up his naval career and devote his life to music. | | D．If Roussel hadn"t joined the navy, he might not have achieved so much. |
小题4:Which of the following is the best title of the passage?| A．A clever musician | B．A white lie | | C．A helpful conductor | D．A great manuscript |
