About six months 3 it seemed that I had 4 a letter to her which had her street 5 on it but was addressed to another house with the 6 number on a different street in the neighborhood. She decided to 7 the letter at the correct house.
It turned out that the letter had been 8 for Johnson, who happened to be 9 . They talked for a little while, and later on he 10 . Then they started dating and had been going 11 together ever since.
I felt sorry for delivering the letter wrong, but I was 12 that I had brought these nice people together.
A few months later a(n) 13 sign went up in Christy’s yard, and then wedding 14 were sent out. Soon the house was sold, the wedding happened, 15 Christy, with her kids, moved into Johnson’s house.
A few months later, I saw a For Sale sign in 16 yard. I feared the 17 might be in trouble, so I made up a(n) 18 to go to their door and 19 on them.
Christy opened the door, smiled broadly, and pointed to her huge stomach “We’re having twins!” she said, “This house won’t be big enough, so we have to 20 .”

试题分析：文章讲述了“我”做为一名邮递员一时的疏忽把信给送错了，收到信的这个女士把信送到了它真正的主人的手里，碰巧的是两个人都是单身，从此他们都对对方有了感情。正是我的大意成就了两个人的结合，成就了一桩幸福的婚姻。
小题1:B考查名词的词义。句意为：七年前的一天，我开车去一个邮箱。telephone 电话； mailbox 邮箱，邮筒；school 学校；shop 商店。由前文我是一个邮递员可知这里是去信箱。
小题2:A考查名词词义。句意为：一个离了婚的年轻女士站在路边正在等我，她说要给我讲个故事。Story故事；notice通知，通告； fact真相，事实； message消息，信息。从下文来看，应是一个故事。
小题3:B考查副词词义。句意为：大约在六个月前。after adv 在---之后；earlier adv 更早，早在---之前；later adv 后来；ago adv在---之前。One day several years ago是七年前的事情，由此可知，这个女士告诉我的应该是在此之前的六个月，所以应为更早之前。故答案应为B
小题4:C考查动词词义。句意为：我邮递给她了一封信，上面有她的街道号。sent 送，派遣；written 写； delivered 邮递；given 给。因为我是一句邮递员，所以这里应为邮递的意思，答案应为C。
小题5:D考查名词词义。句意为：上面有她的街道号。这里下文的第六个空number是一个提示。mark 标志，符号； sign迹象，记号；board 木板，甲板； number 数，号码。
小题6:C考查形容词词义。句意为：街道号相同而街道的名字不同，所以有相同的街道号，正是这一点，作者把信给送错了。correct adj 正确的; wrong adj 错误的； same adj 相同的；different adj 不同的。
小题7:B考查动词短语的含义。句意：她决定把这封信给正确的主人送过去。put down 镇压，记下；drop off 放下，放弃；hand out 分发，施舍；give away 泄露。这里是把这封信送去。
小题8:D考查动词短语的意思。句意为：这封信正是给Johnson的。provided 提供，供给；prepared为---做准备；inferred 推测出的；intended打算为---所用，预定给---。所以答案应为D。
小题9:B考查短语的含义。句意为：这个人正好也是单身。free adj 自由的；single adj 单一的，单身的；lonely adj 寂寞的；simple adj 简单的。所以应为B。
小题10:C考查动词词义。句意为：后来，他就打电话给她，然后他们就开始约会。left 离开； invited邀请；called 打电话； introduced 介绍。由后面的约会可知先是打电话沟通，而不是邀请。
小题11:A考查动词短语的含义。句意从那时起，他们开始一起外出。go out 外出；go in参加，放得进； go away走开；go off 离开，动身。
小题12:B考查形容词的词义。句意为：我为我的送错信而抱歉，但我高兴的是我把这两个人聚在了一起。amazed adj 令人吃惊的； pleased adj 令人高兴的； surprised adj 令人吃惊的 interested adj 使人感兴趣的。
小题13:D考查短语的含义。句意为：几个月之后，一个“出售”的牌子在Christy的院子里挂了起来。
On sale 廉价出售，这里文中没有反映出是廉价出售；for sale 出售，待售。
小题14:C考查名词词义。句意为：发出了婚礼的请柬。arrangements 安排，布置；preparation 准备；invitations 邀请，请柬；announcements通知，通告。这里sent out发出去的应该是请柬。
小题15:B考查连词词义。句意为：婚礼举行了，顺其自然的是Christy和她的孩子们搬到了Johnson的家里，这是指顺承关系。
小题16:D考查代词的词义。句意为：几个月之后，我在他们的院子里又看到了一个待售的牌子。因为他们搬到了一起。所以应为他们。
小题17:C考查名词词义。句意为：我害怕，他们的婚姻出现了危机。friendship n 友谊；connection n联系，关系；marriage n 婚姻；wedding 婚礼。他们已经结过婚了，由此应知为婚姻。答案为C。
小题18:C考查名词词义。句意为：我就找了借口去看一下他们出了什么问题。apology n 道歉；
trouble n 麻烦；excuse n 借口，托辞； regret n 遗憾，后悔。
小题19:A考查动词词义。check vt 查，核查；examine vt 检测，调查；test vt 测试； try vt 尝试，努力；这里是指，我找个借口要去看看到底是不是婚姻出现了问题。所以check比较合适。
小题20:D考查动词词义。句意：我们有了一对双胞胎，房子太小了，不得不搬家。change vt 改变，改换；settle vt定居；separate vt 分开；move vt 转移，搬家。

举一反三
Quickly, I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task. This was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country, I had never heard of that name before. As I searched the name of this fellow, it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: flip (掷) a coin. Heads—the commander, and tails—the peanuts guy. Ah! Tails, my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.
Weeks later, standing before this unfriendly mass, I was totally lost. Oh well, I lowered the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American Revolution.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that she meant that George Washington?
Obviously, my grade was awful. Heartbroken but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to Miss Lancelot, but she insisted: No re-dos; no new grade. I felt that the punishment was not justified, and I believed I deserved a second chance. Consequently, I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, that chance unfolded as I found myself sitting in the headmaster’s office with my grandfather, now having an entirely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the embarrassing moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster informed me of my option to skip the sixth grade. Justice is sweet!
小题1:What did the author’s classmates think about his report?
| A．Controversial. | B．Ridiculous. |
| C．Boring. | D．Puzzling. |
| A．He was unfamiliar with American history. |
| B．He followed the advice and flipped a coin. |
| C．He forgot his teacher’s instruction. |
| D．He didn’t know why the teacher gave such a task. |
| A．annoyed | B．ashamed |

| A．by redoing his task |
| B．through his own efforts |
| C．with the help of his grandfather |
| D．under the guidance of his headmaster |

When it was dark I sat by my camp fire, feeling pretty satisfied; but by and by it got sort of lonesome, so I went and sat on the bank and listened to the current crashing along, and counted the stars and drift logs and rafts that came down, and then went to bed; there was no better way to put in time when you are lonesome; you can"t stay so, and you soon get it over.
And so for three days and nights. No difference—just the same thing. But the next day I went exploring around the island. I was boss of it; it all belonged to me, and I wanted to know all about it; but mainly I wanted to spend the time. I found plenty of strawberries and green summer grapes; and the green blackberries were just beginning to show.
Well, I went fooling along in the deep woods till I judged I wasn"t far from the foot of the island. I had my gun along, but I had shot nothing; it was for protection. About this time I almost stepped on a goodsized snake, and it moved quietly and smoothly through the grass and flowers, and I was after it, trying to get a shot at it. I clipped(疾驰) along, and all of a sudden I bounded(跳) right on to the ashes of a camp fire that was still smoking.
My heart jumped up among my lungs. I never waited to look further, but unlocked my gun and went sneaking back on my tiptoes as fast as I could. Every now and then I stopped a second among the thick leaves and listened, but my breath came so hard that I couldn"t hear anything else. I moved quietly along another piece further, then listened again; and so on, and so on. If I saw a stump(树桩), I took it for a man; if I stepped on a stick and broke it, it made me feel that a person had cut one of my breaths in two and I only got half, and the short half, too.
There was no time to be fooling around. When getting to the camp, I got all my traps into my canoe again to have them out of sight. I put out the fire and threw the ashes around to look like an old last year"s camp, and then climbed a tree.
I suppose I was up for two hours; but I didn’t see or hear anything—I only thought I heard and saw as much as a thousand things. Well, I couldn’t stay up there forever, so at last I got down, but I kept in the thick woods and on the lookout all the time. All I could get to eat was berries and what was left over from breakfast.
小题1:The underlined part “put in time” in the second paragraph probably means _____.
| A．kill the time | B．take the time |
| C．employ the time | D．waste the time |
| A．To show off his gun. |
| B．To hunt some animals for food. |
| C．To protect himself. |
| D．To play with it for fun. |
| A．Surprised. | B．Excited. | C．Frightened. | D．Puzzled. |
| A．The boy brought with himself a tent |
| B．The boy felt a bit lonely on the island. |
| C．The boy was surely the only person on the island at that time. |
| D．The boy might be bitten by some animal when the story happened. |
Ever since the breast cancer diagnosis (诊断), she had tried hard to be strong for the kids and for me. When her diagnosis came, my first thought was there was no way I could lose my wife. The doctors assured us the cancer was discovered early so we were feeling positive.
Becky had received an operation and was recovering from it. After six weeks of radiation therapy(治疗), she was facing her final five treatments. She was weak and tired, in low spirits. Seeing her suffering, I felt so helpless and powerless.
As soon as I was outside, long-held frustration and anger erupted in me like a volcano. I took a hammer and suddenly was swinging as hard as I could, beating heavily on the front porch(门廊). While doing so, I imagined I was beating my wife’s cancer. With all my strength, I destroyed the porch.
During the treatment, my wife had been very brave. She said she had it easy, but I don’t think it was easy for her.
Seeing the porch gone, Becky shook her head at the window. I came into the room, not knowing how she would react to what I had done.
“Becky, are you mad at me?” She looked at me in surprise. “For what?” I pointed at the gate. “For tearing down the porch.” She laughed. “Look how sunny this room is now. I love that it’s bright in here.”
“You comforted me in my darker hour, Vince. You’ve found a way to deal with your own frustration. By destroying the porch, you let the sunshine in.”
As I looked around the brightened room, I realized the light that filled the space was the light of hope that shone so bright after the darkness. We never did re-build the porch.
小题1:When the diagnosis came out, _______.
| A．the author had little hope that his wife would survive |
| B．the author was determined to save his wife’s life |
| C．the author’s wife refused to receive radiation treatments |
| D．the author felt lucky that his wife’s disease was not serious |
| A．he wanted to release his frustration |
| B．he was disappointed with his wife |
| C．he intended to let sunshine in |
| D．his wife didn’t like it at all |
| A．Sympathetic | B．Angry |
| C．Understanding | D．Happy |
| A．Tragedy cannot separate loving couple |
| B．A day without sunshine is like night |
| C．True love is based on understanding |
| D．Nothing is impossible for a willing heart |
