36---40BCADB  41---45ACDBB     46---50ACDBA  51---55CDBCA


解析:

本篇作者通過個(gè)人的經(jīng)歷,指出許多人都犯的一個(gè)通病:對我們常見到的人成事物熟視無睹,直到有一天這個(gè)人或事物突然不見了,我們才發(fā)覺我們失去了什么。從而呼吁人們多關(guān)注我們周圍的人。

36.B

37.C 解析:前句說了人常犯的毛。簩α(xí)慣了的東西視而不見,本句便拿一個(gè)過去上班途中常看到的婦女作例子。Take…for example(拿……作例子)是固定用法,故36空選B,提到的婦女是作者過去常見的,現(xiàn)在看不到了。篇章第一句及下文均有線索,用used to。

38.A 解析:what是代詞,作like的賓語。我們常用“what's the weather like?”來詢問天氣。

39.D 解析:本句后半部分說她穿著厚重的衣服,戴著毛線手套,天氣一定很冷,所以要填snowy/cold/winter才合理,晴朗、下雨及多云都不必如此穿著。

40.B 解析:本句屬擬人用法。這位女士夏天會(huì)穿著棉布連衣裙,戴上(遮陽)帽子及太陽鏡,就像夏天把這一切帶到外面似的,故填brought。

41.A 解析:上文得知,這位女士穿著整潔、守時(shí)、坐公共汽車,她應(yīng)該是一個(gè)普遍的工作女性,這一點(diǎn)是很清楚的,顯而易見的。

42.C 解析:緊扣首句和下文。再也見不到這位女士了,才記起了這一切。天天見到她的時(shí)候,卻不曾真的留意。

43.D 解析:much作狀語,表程度,是I expected very much to see her…改成的感嘆結(jié)構(gòu),作realize的賓語,整句意思是:直到那時(shí)(我再也見不到那位女士時(shí))我才意識(shí)到我多么想每天早上都見到她。其余選項(xiàng)都表時(shí)間和頻率,均不妥。

44.B 解析:上句作者說非常盼著見到那位女士,那么也就是想念她了。

45.B

46.A 解析:作者以前天天見到那位女士,卻從不真正留意,F(xiàn)在她再也沒有出現(xiàn),作者便對此(她的消失)產(chǎn)生猜測,而這些猜測都應(yīng)是足以讓那位女士不再出現(xiàn)的(壞)事。故45空填worse,46空填disappearance。

47.C 解析:now that表一種原因及一件事的后果。全句意為:她不見了(結(jié)果)我倒感覺著我認(rèn)識(shí)她了,(天天見她時(shí)卻很陌生)

48.D

49.B

50.A 解析:本句較長,空也多,難度就增加了,那位女士對于作者來說是一個(gè)“熟悉的陌生人”所謂熟悉是因?yàn)槌R,所謂陌生,是因?yàn)楸舜瞬涣私,從未交談過。這樣的人在生活中不少,所以由于這位女士的突然不見,作者悵然若失,才開始意識(shí)到日常生活包括了這樣一些個(gè)“熟悉的陌生人”,然后舉了一些例子,這些例子都是日常生活中常見的人,所以48填daily,49填stranger,50填regulahy(有規(guī)律地,經(jīng)常地,因而對作者來說才是familiar。)

51.C

52.D 解析:上文提到的那些“熟悉的陌生人“增加了我們對某些地方及環(huán)境的感覺份量(沒有這樣的人,我們不會(huì)對這些地方及環(huán)境有這么深的感情和印象),故52空填D。既然這些人起到這樣的作用,那么他們也就重要了,所以51空填important。

53.B 

54.C

55.A 解析:結(jié)合上文,通讀最后一段,可知作者設(shè)問:走路上班時(shí),我們會(huì)借助建筑物來標(biāo)識(shí)(判斷)我們走到那里了,為什么我們不該借助那些常見的人來判斷一下我們走到那里了呢(還不只是走路吧)?答案不言而喻。55空較易:一個(gè)熟悉(常見)的但又不了解(包括姓名)的人,unnamed是“未命名或未被知道名字的”,54空填passing也合理,經(jīng)過某個(gè)建筑,我們就知道走到什么地方了。53空填if,表?xiàng)l件,結(jié)合全句可知。

科目:高中英語 來源:2014屆河北衡水中學(xué)高三上期二調(diào)考試英語卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Andy is the most unreasonable, pigheaded life form in the world, and he makes me so angry I could scream! Of course, I love him like a brother. I have to because he is my brother. More than that, he is my twin! That’s right. Andy and Amy(that’s me) have the same curly(卷曲的) hair and dark eyes and equally stubborn character. Yet, though we may look alike, on most issues(事情)  we usually take completely opposite positions. If I say day, you can count on Andy to say night.

Just this week, the hot topic in school was all about the PTA’S proposal(提議) to adopt a school dress principle. Every student would be required to wear a uniform. Uniforms! Can you imagine? Oh, they would be uniforms in color. The dress style would be sort of loose and free.

I think a dress principle is a good idea. The reason is simple. School is tough enough without worrying about looking cool every single day. The fact is, the less I have to decide first thing in the morning, the better. I also wouldn’t mind not having to see guys wearing oversized jeans and shirts. And I certainly would welcome not seeing kids showing off designer clothes.

Andy is surprised at my opinion. He says he can’t believe that I would be willing to give up my all-American teenage birthright by dressing like — well, like a typical teenager. Last night, he even dragged out Mom and Dad’s high school photo albums. What a couple of peace-loving hippies(嬉皮士) they were!

The vote for or against uniforms took place later that day. The results of the vote and the headmaster’s decision will be announced next week. I wonder what it will be. I know how I voted, and I’m pretty sure I know how Andy voted.

How would you vote—for or against?

1.The story is about___________.

A. a school policy decision that will affect parents and students

B. a personal experience and is told in the first person

C. a historical event and is told in the third person

D. a conflict of opinions between boys and girls

2.Amy’s position on school uniforms is most likely based on________.

A. logical conclusions drawn form her own observation and personal experience

B. an aggressive reaction to what she has been told by people in authority

C. her preference for designer-labeled clothes

D. not liking anything her brother likes

3.Which of the following is the best statement of Andy’s position?

A. School clothing should reflect parents’ values.

B. Teenagers should never follow the latest fashions in dress.

C. How one dresses should be an expression of one’s individuality.

D. Wearing school uniforms means one less decision every morning.

4.What is the best title for the text?

A. A School Dress Principle.

B. My Stubborn Twin Brother

C. Endless Fights with My Brother

D. For or Against?--- That Is the Question
