试题分析:在一个干旱的夏天,连续一个月没有降雨,仿佛一切都会因干旱而死亡。一天,作者看到孩子不断地往返于房子和树林之间,出于好奇她跟踪前往一探究竟,原来孩子在一趟趟地给小鹿送水,作者感动的落泪,而此时上帝似乎也被孩子的行为感动了,恰好也降下雨来。
小题1: C动词短语辨析。A. 吸收,欺骗;B. 试穿;C. 开始做某事;D. 建立。从情理可知在一个月没有下雨的情况下,为了保住地里种的粮食蔬菜,作者的丈夫开始往地里运水,所以C选项正确。
小题2:B动词辨析。A.等; B. 提供,给予;C浇水;D.下雨。作者在下文提到儿子给小鹿送水,由此可知这是一种不求回报的给予行为,所以判断B选项正确。
小题3:A连词辨析。A当……时候;B. 当……时候; C. 直到……;D.在……以前。根据语境可知作者看到这件事情的时候正在厨房,when后面从句的动词可以是短暂性动词,而while后从句的动词必须是延续性或者表示状态的词,所以A选项正确。
小题4:C名词辨析。A.田野;B. 房子;C. 树林; D.花园。根据下文…. into the woods可以判断孩子走进了小树林,所以C选项正确。
小题5:D动词辨析。A跳; B.爬;C跌倒;D.消失。 由情理可知孩子走进树林,看不见了,所以答案选C。句意:几分钟后,孩子消失在树林中。
小题6:C 副词辨析A. 尽管;B. 此外;C. 然而;D. 因此。 由下文可知孩子跑回来之后又一次返回树林,所以用however 表示转折,故C选项正确。
小题7: D名词辨析。 A.迹象;B.风景; C.风景,观点;D. 场景,场面。 从语境可知此处指的是作者看到的场景,感人的一幕,根据词义判断D选项正确。
小题8: A动词辨析A. 喊;B.射击;C. 看;D. 说话。根据下文A huge deer was dangerously close可以推测当时作者的心情非常紧张,差点喊出声来,所以A选项正确。
小题9:D连词辨析。 A.并且; B.否则;C.因此;D但是。前面提到靠近一头雄健的鹿是很危险的,下文讲当孩子靠近时鹿却没有动,由此可知前后是转折关系,故答案选D。
小题10:A名词辨析。 A.口渴;B疾病; C热;D.疼痛。文章开头提到这是干旱的一个夏天,再根据下文lift its head to lap up the water可以判断小鹿是没有水喝,所以A选项正确。
小题11:C动词辨析。A.失去;B. 不见了;C. 走了,没了; D. 想念,错过。由上下文可知当小鹿喝完孩子手里的水时,孩子再跑回去用手捧水给小鹿喝, lost和missing均强调“找不到了”,而gone可以指“用完了”,所以C为正确选项。
小题12: A形容词辨析A. 善良的;B.聪明的;C. 机敏的; D.诚实的。由孩子所做的事情可以判断孩子是善良的,所以答案选A。
小题13:D动词辨析。 A.下雨; B.出现;D.唱歌;D哭。根据下文可知当时天上碰巧落下雨点来,所以此处用拟人的手法强调孩子的行为使上帝也为之感动的落泪,答案选A。

The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the U.S. Coat Guard to become a freelance writer, I had no hope at all.What I did have was a friend who found me a room in a New York apartment building.It didn"t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom.I immediately bought a used typewriter and felt like a real writer.
After a year or so.However, I still hadn"t gotten a break and began to doubt myself.It was so hard to sell a story that I hardly made enough to eat.But I knew I wanted to write,l had dreamed about it for years.I wasn"t going to be one of those people who die wondering, what if? I would keep putting my dream to the test—even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure.This is the shadow land of hope,and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.

Without rising from my chair, nor looking up from my book, I started to answer, “The tree is not moving the branches, son. The wind is…” But before the words were out, I caught myself. Instead I rose from my chair and moved to the window to join my son. I looked at the tree. From inside our room, from behind the window, I could neither feel nor hear the wind. I saw instead a tree with its branches silently moving and thought to myself, from inside this room, how could I possibly be sure that the branches were moving because of the wind rather than from the tree’s own willing?
As I stood there with my son watching the tree, I became struck by the movement of the branches, the shimmer of the leaves. My mind quieted and I became less sure myself of what was causing the branches to move. Was it the wind, or was it some expressive, independent movement of the tree? “I see what you mean,” I said to my son. “The movement of the tree is very beautiful.”
“Do you think the tree is dancing?” asked my son. “Why would it be dancing?” I asked. “Maybe it is happy because the sun is shining,” he said. “Perhaps,” I said. “Or because it’s spring,” he added, “and it’s not cold any more.” “Perhaps,” I said.
As we continued to watch the tree together, I, too, began to appreciate the dance of the tree. I enjoyed the movement and sway of the branches, seeing little nuances(微妙之处) that I hadn’t noticed before. There seemed to be a rhythm to the movement, first strong and forceful, then light and gentle, then more vigorous, sometimes nearly violent.
“Are trees alive?” my son asked. “Yes, they are alive. Why do you ask?” “Because this tree looks happy,” he answered. “Can a tree be happy or sad?” “What do you mean?” I asked.
“In the winter, trees seem sad,” he said. “Their branches hang down, and they look cold and lonely. But now with the leaves on the tree and the sun shining and the birds flying, it looks happy.”
小题1:What is the meaning of the underlined word “caught” in Para 2?
A.stopped | B.grasped | C.seized | D.held |
A.The tree itself felt happy and was dancing. |
B.The tree was too sad to sway as if to get rid of all trouble. |
C.It was the warm spring. |
D.The wind did so. |
A.Naughty. | B.Imaginative. | C.Clever. | D.Foolish. |
I decided to go back to school for either International Business or Psychology. I weighed the pros and cons of both professions and Psychology won. I like helping my friends and family, when they go through hard situations in their life by giving them sound advice and being honest with them. Also, I was interested in “the mind”.
I was searching for online schools because my work schedule at my current job would not allow me to attend a regular class. I was nervous about starting online classes because I heard mixed stories from other friends who were taking online classes. I decided to do it anyway to experience something different. I wanted to find an online school that was affordable and reputable. Through my search, I discovered Walden University, which is specially for working adults who want to obtain a bachelor’s degree or higher. The process of getting accepted was easy, which included writing an essay on why I wanted to attend their school, transferring my previous credits, etc.
I am currently enrolled in the Bachelors program for psychology, and I am paying for college via financial-aid loans and grants. This experience has been interesting yet trying as sometimes it was difficult to balance work, school and home life. I learned a lot about psychology and myself. For example, I like writing about current events, relationships and traveling. I thought my English composition was ordinary, but after taking a few classes at Walden University, I improved my English composition and it made me feel confident enough to start writing professionally so I became a freelance (自由撰稿) writer. Currently, I am only three classes away from obtaining my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology! It was one of the best decisions I made in my life.

Growing up as a young boy in London in a lower middle-class family, the young John didn’t attend a private school, but went to a public one. His teachers and his family’s friends regarded him as an optimistic boy who favored playing and fighting much more than minding his studies. After his father’s death in the early 1800s, followed by his mother’s passing due to tuberculosis (肺结核), he began viewing life differently. He wanted to escape the world and did so by reading anything he could get his hands on.
At around the age of 16, the teenage John Keats began studying under a surgeon so that he too might become a doctor. However, his literary appetite had taken too much of his fancy, especially with his addiction to the poetry of Ehmund Spenser. He was able to have his first full poem published in the Examiner in 1816, entitled O Solitude! If I Must With Thee Dwell. Within two months in 1817, Keats had written an entire volume of poetry, but was sharply criticized by a magazine. However, the negative response didn’t stop his pursuit of rhythm (韵律).
John Keats’ next work was Endymion, which was published in May 1818. The story involves a shepherd who falls in love with the moon goddess and leads him on an adventure of one boy’s hope to overcome the limitations of being human. Following Engymion, however, he tried something more narrative-based and wrote Isabella. During this time, John Keats began seeing his limitations in poetry due to his own limit in life experiences. He would have to have the “knowledge” associated with his poems. His next work was Hyperion that would attempt to combine all that he learned. However, a bout (发作) with tuberculosis while visiting Italy would keep him from his work and eventually take his life in 1821.
