23、. 【文章大意】 文章讲述了作者在刚到芝加哥的时候，几乎没有什么朋友。在一次聚会上，他认识了一对老年夫妇。因为那对夫妇中的丈夫要在作者工作的医院做心脏手术，所以作者给了他们很多帮助和陪伴，两家人的关系变得很亲密。1B“我”刚来这个地方所以几乎没有朋友。从下文“and seldom went out to parties.”可知作者几乎没有什么朋友，选B。2C“我”被邀请参加一个聚会，在那里“我”遇到了一对老年夫妇。根据语境可知选C。3A从下文“She told me howshe was about her husband who wasa heart operation.”可知那个妻子和“我

24、”谈了很长时间，选A。4C她说她很担心等待做心脏手术的丈夫，选C。5D从下文“At that time I was working as a researcher in the same where the husband would be going for his operation”可知她的丈夫在等待做心脏手术，选D。6B根据“where the husband would be going for his operation”可知这里指的是医院，选B。7A因为“我”是这所医院的研究人员，所以“我”让那对夫妇中的妻子把“我”的电话号码记下，选A。8D根据“I told her to ta

25、ke down my phone number”可知是“我”让她记下电话号码，到时打电话给“我”，让“我”知道她的丈夫在那里，选D。9D她像许诺的那样几个星期后打电话给“我”，根据语境可知选D。10C她告诉“我”她丈夫已经住院了，还在等待做手术，根据句意可知选C。11A“我”告诉她“我”上班的时候，会每天去给他检查，根据语境可知选A。12B根据上文提到的“I thought that if he had been my dad, I would have done the same”可知作者要陪伴他们，故选B。13D每天去看他了解他的手术情况成了“我”的习惯，根据语境可知选D。14A有时“我”

26、会带一本书给他看，根据语境可知选A。15B有时“我”也会带一些食物和他一起分享，选B。16B随着时间的推移，似乎“我”成了这个家庭的一分子，根据语境可知作者与他们逐渐亲近，所以选B。17D甚至在老夫妇中的丈夫出院了，“我们”还是会拜访彼此。根据故事情节的发展可知，两家人的关系逐渐亲密，故选D。18C现在十年过去了，“我”有了自己的家庭。根据now可推断出，随着时间的推移，“我”也成家了，故选C项。19Cwalk走；come 来；live住；drive开车。因为“我们”的父母不住在附近，所以这对夫妇成了“我”孩子在当地的祖父母。根据下文提到的“this couple has become my

27、sons local grandparents.”可知“我们”与父母住得很远。故选C。20A thankful感激的；interested感兴趣的；surprised吃惊的；successful成功的。“我”和妻子非常感激有这样的当地的父母。根据下文提到的“Sometimes family comes out of the most unexpected place.”可知选A。. 【文章大意】 本文讲述了作者在购买农场时发生的事及这些事给作者的启示。1B细节理解题。 从文章第一段的“I have thus searched the country within a dozen miles o

28、f where I live.”可知作者在购买农场前经过了认真的调查研究。2C细节理解题。从第三段最后“I wanted to buy it before he made any more of his improvements. But it turned out as I have said.”可知作者想在原来的农场主人修整前买下它，目的就是要保持它原来的面貌。3D词义猜测题。第二段最后提到买到手的农场因为原来的女主人改变主意又被以原价卖给他们，作者于是就失去了所有权。故选D。4C推理判断题。从文章最后一段的“I believe that as long as possible it is

29、 better to live free and uncommitted(自由的). It makes but little difference whether you own a farm or not.”可知无牵挂的自由自在的生活才是最重要的，有没有农场没多大关系。. 【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一位女孩用心并努力地练习被扔掉的竖琴，最终演奏出动听的音乐，从而让自己与家人过上幸福生活的故事。1but考查并列连词。分析前后句可知，两者为转折关系，故用but。2useless考查形容词。根据下文的“The harpout as rubbish.”可知，他们认为竖琴是不能用的，故用u

30、seless。3was thrown考查动词的时态和语态。从全文来看，时态为一般过去时，且the harp与throw out之间为被动关系，故用一般过去时的被动语态。4how考查副词。根据下文的“decided to have a try.”可知，尽管女孩不知道如何演奏竖琴，她决定尝试一下。故用how表示方式。5with考查介词。分析句子可知，此处是由“with名词介词短语”构成的独立主格结构。6suddenly考查副词。副词在句中作状语。7could考查情态动词。could 意为“能够”。它是一个魔法竖琴，并且仅仅能被那个愿意投入必要的兴趣和努力的人演奏好。8playing考查非谓语动词。see sb doing sth看到某人正在做某事。9his考查代词。此处指的是the Kings，由上文的“he was filled with joy.”可知用his。10giving考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知，该句的主语为he，且与give之间为主动关系，故用现在分词giving，在句中作状语。
