解析
试题分析：本文叙述了母女两个去滑雪，可是在滑雪时出现了雪崩，但是由于她们穿着白色的衣服，等救援飞机来的时候，没有看到她们，于是母亲就刺破手腕，用鲜血在雪地上写了SOS，最后女儿得救了，而母亲则去世了。
小题1:考查形容词及上下文的呼应。happy高兴的； healthy健康地； busy忙的； meaningful有意义的。下文第二段有暗示：to make Jane happy，母亲辛苦工作，是为了让女儿过上幸福(happy)生活。故选A。
小题2:考查副词及上下文的呼应。 moreover而且，此外； However可是； Anyway无论如何； Though尽管。此处表示转折，可是(However)女儿不理解她。故选B。
小题3:考查名词及上下文的呼应。writing写； housework家务； work 工作；research研究。第一段第一句提到：Jane"s mother worked on the farm。可知妈妈忙于农活 ，故选 C。
小题4:考查形容词及上下文的呼应。unfriendly不友好的； loyal忠诚的； kind友好的； cruel残酷的。even一词表示递进，说明Jane不高兴甚至对母亲也不友好(unfriendly)。故选A。
小题5:考查动名词及上下文的呼应。 skating滑冰； dancing跳舞； hiking徒步旅行； skiing滑雪。由第三、四段可知母亲带Jane去滑雪(skiing)。故选D。
小题6:考查代词及上下文的呼应。 all三者以上都； both两者都； either 两者中任一； every每一。因为母女二人都(both)穿着白色衣服，所以滑雪场负责人建议母亲买滑雪服。故选B。
小题7:考查连词及上下文的呼应。 now that既然； in case万一； as though好像； even if即使。in case“万一”；万一遇到紧急情况。故选B。
小题8:考查动词及上下文的呼应。search寻找； examine检查； find发现； catch抓住。万一遇到紧急情况，母女二人可以很容易被找到(found)，从而获救。故选C。
小题9:考查动词及上下文的呼应。 pay付款； manage管理； afford买得起； stand站立。第一段提到make ends meet，说明母亲经济不富裕，因此买不起(couldn"t afford)滑雪服。故选C。
小题10:考查名词及上下文的呼应。mountain山； farmland农田； playground 操场； snowfield雪地。母女俩在滑雪场(snowfield)高兴地滑雪。snowfield在上下文均有提示。故选D。
小题11:考查动词及上下文的呼应。 change变化； melt 融化； shake震动，动摇； jump跳。发生雪崩时，滑雪场应该是震动(shake)。故选C。

When John Weston awoke that morning, he remembered that his mother was going into hospital. He hadn’t worked out quite what was wrong with her. He knew, though that she hadn’t been well for some time now, and it had become almost familiar to him to see her eyes narrowed in a sudden attack of pain, and her hand pressing against her heart. Their own doctor, who she had finally gone to for advice, had sent her to an expert who knew all about these things. He had told her that just as soon as there was a bed for her, she would have to come into his hospital where he could look after her himself.
During the weeks since then the pains had come even more frequently, and the narrowed eyes became an almost permanent part of her expression. Always rather sharp, she began losing her temper over little things so that John’s father kept his thoughts to himself more and more. John, as ready as possible to make allowances, tried to think what it would be like to have toothache all the time and how bad-tempered that would make you.
So his mother would go into hospital for a few days. He was going to stay with his Aunt Daisy till she came back, and his father would stay on at home by himself. John’s cousin, Mona, was to come in and make the bed and wash the pots and dust round now and again. That was the arrangement, and John didn’t care much for it. Apart from missing his mother(and he was glad she was going away because they would make her better), he wasn’t very fond of his Aunt Daisy because she was even more bad-tempered than his mother.
小题1:Mrs Weston went to see her doctor_________.| A．as soon as she realized that something was wrong | | B．only after her husband advised her to | | C．a long time after the trouble began | | D．when John asked what was wrong with her |
小题2:what did Mrs Weston’s own doctor decide to do?| A．he decided to send her to hospital | | B．he decided to get an expert to examine her | | C．He decided to treat her himself | | D．He advised her to wait for a few weeks. |
小题3:how did John react to his mother’s bad temper?| A．he tried to imagine himself in her place. | | B．He tried not to notice it. | | C．He pretended that he had toothache. | | D．He behaved himself as well as possible. |
小题4:John regarded ______as most bad-tempered.| A．his father | B．his mother | C．his cousin Mona | D．his aunt Daisy |
