13、 10._ 篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了父亲和作者不同时期饲养的两只狗的故事。1constantly考查词性转换。修饰动词stayed，应用副词。2following考查非谓语动词。依据句中的“fishing, playing ball”可知，and连接三个非谓语动词作伴随状语。3a考查冠词。上文的“all the doors”说明，这里指其中一扇门被打开了。4until考查连词。由句意可知此处表述“直到它找到主人”，until意为“直到为止”，符合语境。5(should) be removed考查虚拟语气。句中的谓语动词demand后接宾语从句应用虚拟语气，且the dog与动词r

14、emove之间为被动关系，故应用被动语态。6to join考查非谓语动词。不定式在句中作目的状语。7at考查介词。空后是表示小地点的名词，故用at。8so考查固定句式。so . that . “如此以至于”。9more考查固定句式。more . than . 意为“比更多的”，故填more。10but考查连词。前后两个分句之间是转折关系，因此用转折连词but。三、完形填空。阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可能填入空白处的最佳选项。After living near Madrid for a year as an au pair (以帮做家务事等换取食宿的人) th

23、国他乡能找到家的感觉确实“幸运(lucky)”。3D如果在某个地方“不一定(not necessarily)”就是家能找到家的感觉，那真是幸运。4C根据上文的nice，felt like，feel like可知，作者认识到家就是“心灵(heart)”的归属地。5A根据上文的A lot of people get homesick及常识可知，思乡是一种“正常的(normal)”情感。6C根据上文的homesick可知，一个人远离自己“所爱的(loved)”人和家中的舒适，当然会泛起乡愁。7A下文提到的在异乡也能找到家的感觉与上文意义上发生了转折，故选However。8D9A根据上文的you ca

24、n feel at home可知，此处意思是，如果在一个地方能与“关爱(care for)”自己的人在一起、觉得比较“舒服(comfortable)”，那自然能找到家的感觉。10B11B根据这两个空所在句中的embracing every moment, enjoying和you can feel settled in a short amount of time可知，如果能珍惜每个瞬间、“交(making)”些朋友、享受新的“文化(culture)”，那很快就能融入当地的生活。12C根据下文的host family可知，“我”与寄宿家庭“生活(living)”在一起。13D根据下文的help

25、ed to ease the process of feeling happy and settled可知，寄宿家庭的成员都很“友好(friendly)”。14B根据上文的see how the children grow up可知，能“亲历(experience)”这一过程，作者感到很幸福。15C上文的host family是提示。16D17A因为是第二次来西班牙，所以作者这次“安定(settling in)”下来要比上次更容易些，因为他已经“熟悉(accustomed to)”了当地的文化。18C根据本空所在句中的moving away from home和different in com

26、parison to what you call home可知，背井离乡自然需要“适应(adapt to)”异地不同于家乡的很多方面。19C20B根据However可知，前后表示转折。作者认为虽然需要适应很多新事物，但是这恰巧就是旅游、探索、“发现(discovering)”自我的“乐趣(delight)”所在。四、短文改错。Last Friday, I had interview with Professor Zhang about “How to Improve Our Oral English”.
