8．---Do you know Mike well？You two seem to have been friends for years．
---Not really．But I had met him on several _____ before you saw me talking with him．（　�。�
A．circumstancesB．situationsC．conditionsD．occasions

分析 ---你和邁克很熟嗎？你們兩個似乎是多年的朋友了．
---不是非常熟悉．但在你見到我和他說話之前，我在幾個場合曾見過他幾面．

解答 答案D．
circumstances情形，情況；situations情況，環(huán)境；conditions條件，狀況；occasions時刻，場合．circumstances、situations和conditions這三個詞的意思相近，都是指事物的"情形，情況"，但occasions更側(cè)重指時間的"時刻，場合"，根據(jù)句子所表達的意思指的是"時間場合"，所以答案選D．

點評 本題考查名詞的詞義辨析．名詞詞義辨析題一直都是高考考查的一個熱點，它注重考查考生結(jié)合語境準確選用詞語的能力．由于英語詞匯豐富，且用法多變，考生掌握起來有較大難度，因此在平時應(yīng)注意詞匯的積累，理解詞語的含義及其常見的習(xí)慣搭配，再聯(lián)系句子所表述的意義和語境，選出正確的答案．

2．Think about the different ways that people use the wind．You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat．Wind is one of our cleanest and richest power sources（來源）．a(chǎn)s well as one of  the oldest．Evidence shows that windmills（風(fēng)車）began to be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC．They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s．when armies returned from the Middle East with knowledge of using wind power．
     For many centuries，people used windmills to grind（磨碎）wheat into our or pump water from deep underground．When electricity was discovered in the late 1800s．people living in remote areas began to use them to produce electricity．This allowed them to have electrie lights and radio．However，by the1940s when electricity was available to people in almost all areas of the United States，windmills were rarely used．
   During the 1970s，people started becoming concerned about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electcicity．People also realized that the supply of coal and gas would not last forever．Then，wind was rediscovered，though it means higher costs．Today，there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind．

60．From the text we know that windmillsC．
A．were invented by European armies
B．have a history of more than 2，800years
C．used to supply power to radio in rember areas
D．have ramly been used since dlictricity was discovcved
61．What was a new use for wind power in the late 19th century？B
A．Sailing a boat．B．Producing  electricity
C．Grinding wheat into flour．D．Pumping water from underground
62．One of the reasons wind was rediscovered in the 1970s is thatA．
A．wind power is cleaner
B．it is one of the oldest power sources
C．it was cheaper to create energy from wind
D．fhe supply of coal and gas failed to meet needs
63．What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows？D
A．The advantages of wind power．
B．The design of wind power plants．
C．The worldwide movement to save energy
D．The global trend towards producing power from wind．

1．It was Saturday．As always，it was a busy one，for"Six days shall you labor and all your work"was taken seriously back then．Outside，F(xiàn)ather and Mr．Patrick next door were busy chopping firewood．Inside their own houses，Mother and Mrs．Patrick were engaged in spring cleaning．
Somehow the boys had slipped away to the back lot with their kites．Now，even at the risk of having Brother caught to beat carpets，they had sent him to the kitchen for more string（線）．It seemed there was no limit to the heights to which kites would fly today．
My mother looked at the sitting room，its furniture disordered for a thorough sweeping．Again she cast a look toward the window．"Come on，girls!Let's take string to the boys and watch them fly the kites a minute．"
On the way we met Mrs．Patric，laughing guiltily as if she were doing something wrong，together with her girls．
There never was such a day for flying kites!We played all our fresh string into the boys'kites and they went up higher and higher．We could hardly distinguish the orange-colored spots of the kites．Now and then we slowly pulled one kite back，watching it dancing up and down in the wind，and finally bringing it down to earth，just for the joy of sending it up again．
Even our fathers dropped their tools and joined us．Our mothers took their turn，laughing like schoolgirls．I think we were all beside ourselves．Parents forgot their duty and their dignity； children forgot their everyday fights and little jealousies．"Perhaps it's like this in the kingdom of heaven，"I thought confusedly．
It was growing dark before we all walked sleepily back to the housed．I suppose we had some sort of supper．I suppose there must have been surface tidying-up，for the house on Sunday looked clean and orderly enough．The strange thing was，we didn't mention that day afterward．I felt a little embarrassed．Surely none of the others had been as excited as I．I locked the memory up in that deepest part of me where we keep"the things that cannot be and yet they are．"
The years went on，then one day I was hurrying about my kitchen in a city apartment，trying to get some work out of the way while my three-year-old insistently cried her desire to"go park，see duck．"
"I can't go!"I said．"I have this and this to do，and when I'm through I'll be too tired to walk that far．"
My mother，who was visiting us，looked up from the peas she was shelling．"It's a wonderful day，"she offered，"really warm，yet there's a fine breeze．Do you remember that day we flew kites？"
I stopped in my dash between stove and sink．The locked door flew open and with it a rush of memories．"Come on，"I told my little girl．"You're right，it's too good a day to miss．"
Another decade passed．We were in the aftermath（余波） of a great war．All evening we had been asking our returned soldier，the youngest Patrick Boy，about his experiences as a prisoner of war．He had talked freely，but now for a long time he had been silent．What was he thinking of---what dark and horrible things？
"Say!"A smile sipped out from his lips．"Do you remember---no，of course you wouldn't．It probably didn't make the impression on you as it did on me．"
I hardly dared speak．"Remember what？"
"I used to think of that day a lot in POW camp （戰(zhàn)俘營），when things weren't too good．Do you remember the day we flew the kites？"
