【語(yǔ)篇解讀】 這是一個(gè)情感故事,講述了一位父親幫助女兒完成情人節(jié)作業(yè)——制作情人節(jié)盒子的故事,體現(xiàn)了濃濃的親情。
1.A 從上下文可知,我在飯桌上向家人宣布了(announce)老師要求交的作業(yè)。appear表示“出現(xiàn)”;serve表示“服務(wù)”;sit表示“坐”,都與語(yǔ)意不符。
2.C 從上下文語(yǔ)句知,我必須要有情人節(jié)盒子,否則(or)這個(gè)情人節(jié)將會(huì)是一場(chǎng)災(zāi)難。此處表示轉(zhuǎn)折,用or。
3.D 下文11空格后的project有暗示,表示“作業(yè)”。
4.B 從下文my concern increased可以推斷出,我當(dāng)時(shí)的心情——焦急不安(waited anxiously),但是,我知道(know)我父母的脾氣,在我家,小孩子只能問(wèn)一次,過(guò)多的詢問(wèn)可能會(huì)使(cause)父母生氣。
5.C 語(yǔ)意參見4題解析。find表示“發(fā)現(xiàn)”,realize表示“意識(shí)到”,imagine表示“想像”,都不符合語(yǔ)意。
6.B 語(yǔ)意參見4題解析。start表示“開始”;mark表示“標(biāo)記”;produce表示“生產(chǎn)”,都不符合語(yǔ)意。cause表示“導(dǎo)致”。
7.A invite trouble是固定詞組,表示“招災(zāi)惹禍”。
8.C 從第六段中的“Colorful paper covered...”知,當(dāng)時(shí)桌上堆滿了各式各樣的彩紙(colorful paper),同時(shí)在上面還放著一只空鞋盒(empty shoebox)。
9.D 語(yǔ)意參見8題解析。文章結(jié)尾的empty shoebox有暗示。
10.B 看到彩紙和盒子,聽到父親說(shuō)要幫助自己做情人節(jié)盒子,我大感解脫(relief)。relief表示“解脫”;relaxation表示“放松”;cheer表示“振作,歡呼”;calm表示“冷靜”。
11.D 此時(shí)父親說(shuō)“讓我們開始做你的作業(yè)吧”。此處get started on sth.是固定詞組,表示“開始做……”。
12.C 此處表示“父親用一個(gè)小時(shí)把鞋盒變成了(change)令人印象深刻的情人節(jié)盒子”。change...into...表示“把……變成……”。
13.B 固定詞組attach to表示“依附于,附屬于……”。
14.C 父親邊做邊唱,非常高興,當(dāng)他做完后,臉上露出了開朗的笑容(broad smile)。slight表示“輕微的”;brief表示“簡(jiǎn)要的”;confident表示“自信的”都不符合語(yǔ)境。
15.A 我看到那做好的漂亮的盒子,心花怒放,選用joy“高興,快樂(lè)”。fun表示“樂(lè)趣”;interest表示“興趣”;amusement表示“娛樂(lè),消遣”都不符合語(yǔ)境。
16.B 我高興,因?yàn)檫@是父親第一次把這么多的時(shí)間(time)花在我身上,他的世界原本只有工作。
17.D 從上下文知,最后,放學(xué)的時(shí)間到了(come)。
18.C 回家的路上,我拿出那盒子想讓全世界的人都來(lái)欣賞(admire)它。accept表示“接受”;respect表示“尊敬”;recognize表示“辨認(rèn)”都不符合語(yǔ)境。
19.D 那個(gè)情人節(jié)盒子成了父愛(ài)的象征,一直持續(xù)了(last)幾十年,這些年,父親給過(guò)我很多其他禮物,但從來(lái)沒(méi)有一樣能比得上那包含在破舊的空鞋盒里面的關(guān)愛(ài)。last在此表示“持續(xù)”。
20.A 語(yǔ)意參見19題解析。ever意為“在任何時(shí)候,從來(lái)”,符合語(yǔ)意。
