本文是一篇记叙文,描述了一位美国技工的女儿训练小雁学飞的奇特传说故事。文章妙趣横生,故事情节跌宕起伏,读后令人回味无穷,顿感大自然的奇妙。 36. C。 happen to do 表示“碰巧做……、偶然遇到……”。 37. A。根据故事情节,小女孩停了一会后,意识到雁妈妈不会再回到此处。 38. B。意识到雁妈妈不再回来,小女孩便决定将蛋带回家。 39. A。根据下文的故事情节叙述可知,女孩把蛋带回家后小心翼翼地将其孵化,所以她将雁蛋放在温暖处。 40. C。根据情节,几天以后,小雁破壳出世。 41. D。小雁破壳出世诞生。 42. C.由于大雁出世时所看到的活的东西往往被认为是它们的妈妈,所以,这个小女孩就理所当然地被小雁认为是它们的妈妈。 43. D。随着小雁一天天长大,grow表示“长大、成长”。 44. B。 lead sb to do 表示“致使某人做”,其他选项不符和语境。 45. A。虽然小女孩能让小雁在草丛中嬉闹,可她并不能教它们飞翔。 46. D。她的这种顾虑与日俱增,无论是在睡梦中还是清醒不睡时。此处的选择取决于和in her dreams的对应。 47. A。从后面的冒号可以看出,后面的内容应该是小女孩想到的办法和主意. 48. C。 in flight表示“飞翔的状态”,只有此项符合语境。Sky前应该加the, heaven表示“天堂”,是宗教迷信用词. 49. B。父亲担心他女儿的安全。 50. C。父亲决定亲自驾飞机领飞,可是小雁们并不能辨认是领飞。 51. B。小雁非但认不出是领飞,相反干脆就在草丛中睡起大觉来。 52. A。根据情节,应该是小女孩爬上飞机。 53. D。小女孩发动飞机后,飞机应该很快飞离地面。 54. D。由于小雁的妈妈飞走,所以小雁也急切地振翅欲飞。 55.B.set out to do 表示“开始、着手做”,根据语境,此时小雁也开始振翅飞翔。 |

Our listener question this week comes from Abdullahi Farah, who wants to know about the life and work of Doctor Benjamin Carson. Doctor Carson is an internationally recognized doctor atJohns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland. He has been the director of Pediatric Neurosurgery at the hospital for twenty-five years. At the age of thirty-three, he became one of the youngest doctors in the United States to hold that position. And he was the first African-American to have that position at Johns Hopkins Hospital. Ben Carson is known for his work as a brain surgeon for children. For example, in nineteen eighty-seven, he led a team of seventy doctors and nurses in an operation to separate two babies joined at the head. Earlier attempts by other surgeons on other babies had failed. Doctor Carson successfully performed the operation. Both babies were able to survive independently. Doctor Carson has written four books. His first book, "Gifted Hands," tells the story of his life. Benjamin Carson was born in nineteen fifty-one in Detroit, Michigan. As a boy, Ben was not a good student. In fact, he was the worst in his class. When his mother learned of his failing grades she asked her sons to read two library books every week. She limited the amount of time they watched television. And she told them to respect every person. Ben Carson soon became the top student in his class. He went on to study at Yale University, one of the best universities in the country, and later to medical school at the University of Michigan. Doctor Carson has received many awards and honors.
