1.A。treat…as…“把…….视为/看作”,如:He treated his mistake as a joke. 他把他的错误当作玩笑看待。;think of……as….;ignore不理睬;忽视,及物动词。如:I tried to tell her but she ignored me. 我打算告诉她,可是她不理睬我。又如:"Ignore the child if he misbehaves, and he"ll soon stop."

3.C。put…away“收起来放好,保存好”;put…aside“(暂时)放在一边”;set…aside “取消, 驳回”;leave… alone“不关,不理”。只有C符合句意。
4.C。根据句意“在厨房忙…的母亲完全忘了这件事。”此处是谓语,who…是个非限制性定语从句。本题易误选A。
5.B。fascinate迷住, 使神魂颠倒; 吸引; 使感兴趣,如:The changing vivid colours of the sunset fascinated the eye. 日落时变化多端的色彩使人看得入迷。其它选项不符合语境意思。又如:He"s fascinated with Buddhist ceremonies. 他迷上了佛教的仪式。

16.C。Besides“另外; 此外”起补充作用,如:It"s too late to go to the basketball match now; besides it"s beginning to rain. 现在去看篮球比赛已经太晚了, 何况, 又开始下雨了。Therefore“因此, 所以”,含有因果关系,不合适; Otherwise“(用于推论)因而,因此”We do not have enough money.

17.A。be to blame [习惯用语] “应受谴责”,如:The children were not to blame. 孩子们不应受到谴责。The driver was not to blame for the traffic accident. 那次交通事故不应该责怪司机。accuse“控诉; 起诉”, accuse sb. of ... [习惯用语]“ 指控某人...”,如:He was accused of stealing by the police. 警方控告他犯有盗窃罪。本题易误选B。
18.D。根据前面的consolation 的含义,可以判断出and后应用sympathy“同情; 怜悯”; explanation“解释”;courage“勇气”;excuse“借口,理由”,都不符合语境。
19.D。根据后面的or whom to blame,可以判断出答案。accessible “容易取得的;容易接近的,容易受影响的”。本题易误选B。

举一反三
During the years of depression(萧条), food and money were very hard to find and people had to trade things with each other.
One day I was 36 some potatoes from Mr Miller. I noticed a small poor boy hungrily 37 a full basket of 38 green peas. Then I was 39 to see that Mr Miller sold the boy a bag of peas for just a marble (弹球).
Mrs Miller, who had been standing nearby, 40 and told me that Mr Miller loved to trade with the three boys in the village for peas, tomatoes, and other things 41 he didn’t really need any marbles. I left the stand, smiling to myself, 42 by this man.
Several years went by. One day I learned that Mr Miller had died. I took part in the funeral(葬礼), 43 three young men . They came over to Mrs Miller, hugged her, kissed her on the cheek, spoke with her and moved on, 44 their eyes.
Our 45 came to meet Mrs Miller. I mentioned 46 she had told me about the 47 . She told me,“Those three young men above were the boys I told you about. They just told me 48 they appreciated the things Jim‘traded’with them. Now, at last, they came to pay their debt.”
“We’ve 49 had a great deal of the wealth in this world,” she added, “but right now, Jim would consider himself to be the 50 man.”
Then she gently lifted the 51 fingers of her husband. Resting underneath were three red marbles.
At that time I realized that we would not be 52 by our words, but by our kind 53 . It is said that it takes a minute to find a 54 person, an hour to appreciate him, a day to love him, but an entire life to 55 him.

I recently turned fifty, which is young for a tree, midlife for an elephant , and ancient for a sportsman, Fifty is a nice number for the states in the US or for a national speed limit but it is not a number that I was prepared to have hung on me. Fifty is supposed to be my father’s age. but now I am stuck with this number and everything it means.
A few days ago, a friend tried to cheer me up by saying, “ Fifty is what forty used to be . ”He had made an inspirational point, Am I over the hill ?People keep telling me that the hill has been moved, and I keep telling them that he high-jump bar has dropped from the six feet I once easily cleared to the four feet that is impossible for me now.
“ Your are not getting older, you are getting better . ” says Dr. Joyce Brothers . This, however, is the kind of doctor who inspires a second opinion.
And so. as I approach the day when I cannot even jump over the tennis net. I am moves to share some thoughts on aging with you. I am moved to show how aging feels to me physically and mentally. Getting older. of course, is obviously a better change than the one that brings you eulogies(悼词). In fact , a poet named Robert Browning considered it the best change of all :
Grow old along with me!
The best is yet to me.
Whether or not Browning was right , most of my first fifty years have been golden ones, so I will settle for what is ahead being as good as what has gone by. I find myself moving toward what is ahead with a curious blend ( 混合) of both fighting and accepting my aging, hoping that the philosopher(哲学家) was right when he said . ”Old is always fifteen years from now. ”

All her life, my mother wanted busy children. It was very important that her house should remain at all things clean and tidy.
You could turn your back for a moment in my mother"s house, leave a half written letter on the dining room table, a magazine open on the chair, and turn around to find that my mother had "put it back where it belonged." as she explained.
My wife, on one of her first visits to my mother"s house, placed a packet of biscuits on an end table and went to the kitchen to fetch a drink. When she returned, she found the packet had been removed. Confused(疑惑的), she set down her drink and went back to the kitchen for more biscuits, only to return to find that her drink had disappeared. Up to then she had guessed that everyone in my family held onto their drinks, so as not to make water rings on the end tables. Now she knows better.
These disappearances had a confusing effect on our family. We were all inclined to (有......的倾向) forgetfulness, and it was common for one of us, upon returning from the bathroom, to find the every sign of his work in progress had disappeared suddenly. "Do you remember what I was doing?" was a question frequently asked, but rarely answered.
Now my sister has developed a second-hand love of clean windows, and my brother does the cleaning in his house, perhaps to avoid having to be the one to lift his feet. I try not to think about it too much, but I have at this later time started to dust the furniture once a week.
68. Which of the following is TRUE about my mother?
A. She enjoyed removing others" drinks. B. She became more and more forgetful.
C. She preferred to do everything by herself. D. She wanted to keep her house in good order.
69. My wife could not find her biscuits and drink in my mother"s house because _______.
A. she had already finished them B. my mother had taken them away
C. she forgot where she had left them D. someone in my family was holding them
70. The underlined part to the fifth paragraph suggests that my sister _______.
A. is happy to clean windows B. loves to clean used windows
C. is fond of clean used windows D. likes clean windows as my mother did
71. This passage mainly tells us that _______.
A. my mother often made us confused B. my family members had a poor memory
C. my mother helped us to form a good habit
D. my wife was surprised when she visited my mother
When I learned that my 71-year-old mother was playing Scrabble – a word game – against herself, I knew I had to do something. My husband suggested we give her a computer to play against. I wasn’t sure my mother was ready for it. After all, it had taken 15 years to persuade her to buy an electric cooker. Even so, we packed up our old computer and delivered it to my parents’home. And so began my mother’s adventure in the world of computers.
It also marked the beginning of an unusual teaching task for me. I’ve taught people of all ages, but I never thought I would be teaching my mother how to do anything. She has been the one teaching me all my life: to cook and sew; to enjoy the good times and put up with the bad. Now it was my turn to give something back.
It wasn’t easy at the beginning. There was so much to explain and to introduce. Slowly but surely, my mother caught on, making notes in a little notebook. After a few months of Scrabble and other games, I decided it was time to introduce her to word processing(文字处理). This proved to be a bigger challenge(挑战) to her, so I gave her some homework I asked her to write me a letter, using different letter types, colors and spaces.
“Are you this demanding with your kindergarten pupils?” she asked.
“No, of course not,” I said. “They already know how to use a computer.”
My mother isn’t the only one experiencing a fast personal growth period. Thanks to the computer, my father has finally got over his phone allergy(过敏反应). For as long as I can remember, any time I called, my mother would answer. Dad and I have had more phone conversations in the last two months than we’ve had in the past 20 years.
