You Are Going Places
I work at a local restaurant in town as cashier, seater and waiter.
I went to work feeling     【小題1】     . And to make things worse, I was busy that evening.
It’s the same thing over and over again.     【小題2】     with customers who complain about their
food and where they are    【小題3】   is too big or too small. Little things like that tend to  【小題4】    
a lot of us     【小題5】     but we manage to deal with it.
Three elderly ladies walked in and sat by the windows. It happened to be the very   【小題6】    
near where I keep the dirty      【小題7】    in the boxes. Trying to keep up with all the dirty tables,
customers leaving and coming in and    【小題8】   running all over the house, it was crazy.  【小題9】   
these elderly women were watching   【小題10】    I was working to make sure every table was clean
and ready for the next customers.
When they    【小題11】    their meals, I took their plates back to the kitchen. They talked to me
for a while about school, how I was doing, what  【小題12】     I was in and what I planned to do in
the future.
    【小題13】    they were leaving, they walked past me and one of them said to me in a    【小題14】   
and gentle voice, “You are going places. And that was it.” They left the    【小題15】    and I had tears
in my eyes, because they gave me    【小題16】    to believe in myself. They    【小題17】    my spirit from
being down and gave me a    【小題18】    to keep on working hard.
People used to tell me that I couldn’t have a career in   【小題19】   until I had a degree. I’m now
a co-anchor(聯(lián)合支持人)of a student-produced television     【小題20】     . And the best thing is:
I’m only 17 years old and I am a senior in high school.

解析試題分析:作者是一位17歲的中學(xué)生,利用業(yè)余時(shí)間打工。一天,在身心疲憊打工的時(shí)候,一個(gè)人一句話使作者對(duì)自己的前途重燃希望。那句話是:You Are Going Places(你前途無(wú)量)。
【小題1】 D考查語(yǔ)境化選詞。我去上班的時(shí)候心情非常不好。feeling down 是現(xiàn)在分詞作伴隨狀語(yǔ),意為“悶悶不樂(lè)”。倒數(shù)第二段的They  17 my spirit from being down也說(shuō)明了該題答案。
【小題2】 A考查動(dòng)詞辨析。應(yīng)付那些抱怨食品、座位等的顧客是大大小小的事情。deal with表示“對(duì)付”;help with幫助某人做......;talk with和......交談;meet with遇到,經(jīng)受。
【小題3】B考查語(yǔ)境話選詞。顧客抱怨他們就座的位置。seat是使動(dòng)詞,表示“使坐下”,be seated意為“坐下,就座”;sit是不及物動(dòng)詞,應(yīng)為where they sat
【小題4】D考查動(dòng)詞。諸如此類的小事容易造成我們雇員的煩惱。annoy表示“使生氣”。因?yàn)樽髡咔懊嫣岬搅祟櫩偷姆N種抱怨,因此只能導(dǎo)致雇員的煩惱、生氣。attract吸引;avoid避免;adjust調(diào)整。
【小題5】 A考查名詞。諸如此類的小事容易造成我們雇員的煩惱。劇中的our和下文的we給答案做了提示。employees表示“受雇者,雇工”。
【小題6】 C考查名詞。他們碰巧坐在我存放過(guò)用過(guò)的盤子附近的地方。spot表示“地方,地點(diǎn)”。根據(jù)后面的where I keep the dirty 7 in the boxes句子,排除B項(xiàng);不可能把臟盤子放在客人用餐的桌子上,故排除A;kitchen不會(huì)與客人用餐的地方處于同一個(gè)位置,故排除D。
【小題7】 A 考查名詞。  the dirty dishes指客人用過(guò)的盤子。因?yàn)樽髡呤窃诓蛷d打工的學(xué)生,所以“端盤子”才能與文章主題相符。
【小題8】 C考查名詞。顧客們的進(jìn)進(jìn)出出、服務(wù)人員的穿梭走動(dòng)。該空指服務(wù)人員在餐館的來(lái)回走動(dòng),穿梭服務(wù)。顧客們是來(lái)這里就餐的,不能來(lái)回走,故排除D,A,B兩項(xiàng)太片面。
【小題9】 C考查連詞。雖然餐館處于一片忙亂的狀態(tài),但是這三位婦女在專心的看著我。該空前的crazy給該空提出了暗示。
【小題10】 B注視著我為了確保每張桌子是干凈的去迎接下一位顧客,而多么努力的工作。how相當(dāng)于how hard。
【小題11】A考查動(dòng)詞。她們吃完飯的時(shí)候。根據(jù)下文的I took their plates back to the kitchen排除C、D選項(xiàng);complete往往用于完成“建筑物”、“工程”、“書(shū)籍”等;而finish制作完手中的事情,如:“用完”、“吃完”等。
【小題12】 B 考查名詞。grade表示“年級(jí)”。她們?cè)儐?wèn)我上哪個(gè)年級(jí)。通過(guò)上下文,可知作者是個(gè)打工的學(xué)生,故B項(xiàng)符合文章。Place地方, mark分?jǐn)?shù),position位置。
【小題13】 C考查連詞。當(dāng)她們離開(kāi)的時(shí)候,她們走過(guò)我身邊。as引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句時(shí),表示主從句的動(dòng)作同時(shí)發(fā)生。由句意排除A、D選項(xiàng);while引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句時(shí),從句中的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞是延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞。
【小題14】 A考查形容詞。她們從我身邊走過(guò)時(shí),有一個(gè)人用自信和溫和的語(yǔ)調(diào)說(shuō)。由下文的You are going places.(你前途無(wú)量)推測(cè)說(shuō)話者語(yǔ)氣。因?yàn)檎f(shuō)話人在鼓勵(lì)作者,所以只有A項(xiàng)符合語(yǔ)境
【小題15】 C考查名詞?腿苏f(shuō)完后就離開(kāi)了餐館。由下文知道,they指three elderly ladies,她們來(lái)餐館用餐。
【小題16】 B考查名詞。根據(jù)文意可知,別人給予了作者自信的“勇氣”,作者才得以重新振作起來(lái)。
【小題17】 B考查動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)。她們讓我振作起來(lái)。pick up表示“使恢復(fù)精神”。put down放下,鎮(zhèn)壓;take over接管;point out指出。
【小題18】 B考查名詞。她們給了我繼續(xù)努力的理由。reason表示某種行為的原因;cause表示某種現(xiàn)象的原因。
【小題19】 A考查名詞。有人曾經(jīng)告訴我,沒(méi)有學(xué)位,我就不能從事電視臺(tái)的工作。下文的I'm now a co-anchor(聯(lián)合主持人)of a student-produced television 20.暗示這里的答案。
【小題20】 C 考查名詞。a student-produced television show表示學(xué)生制作的電視節(jié)目。show表示“演出,表演節(jié)目”。
考點(diǎn):考查故事類完型填空
點(diǎn)評(píng):本文屬于故事類,這類文章一般描述的是某一件具體事情的發(fā)生發(fā)展或結(jié)局,有人物、時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)和事件。命題往往從故事的情節(jié)、人物或事件的之間的關(guān)系、作者的態(tài)度及意圖、故事前因和后果的推測(cè)等方面著手,考查學(xué)生對(duì)細(xì)節(jié)的辨認(rèn)能力以及推理判斷能力。閱讀這類材料時(shí),同學(xué)們一定要根據(jù)主要情節(jié)掌握文章主旨大意,同時(shí)抓住每一個(gè)細(xì)節(jié),設(shè)身處地根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容揣摩作者的態(tài)度和意圖,根據(jù)情節(jié)展開(kāi)想象,即使是碰到深層理解題也可迎刃而解。

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2010—2011學(xué)年西藏拉薩中學(xué)高二第二次月考英語(yǔ)卷 題型:閱讀理解

Most shops in Britain open at 9:00 am, and close at 5:00 or 5:30 in the evening. Small shops usually close for an hour at lunchtime. On one or two days a week—usually Thursday and/or Friday—some large food shops stay open until about 8:00 pm for late night shopping.
Many shops are closed in the afternoon on one day a week. The day is usually Wednesday or Thursday and it is a different day in different towns.
Nearly all shops are closed on Sundays. Newspaper shops are open in the morning, and sell sweets and cigarettes as well. But not all the things can be sold on Sundays.
Usually it is not difficult for foreign visitors to find where to buy things. Most shops sell the things that you want to buy. One problem is stamps. In Britain you can only buy these at post offices. Many large food shops are self-service. When you go into one of these shops, you take a basket and you put the things you wish to buy into this. You pay for everything just before you leave. If anyone tries to take things from a shop without paying they are almost certain to be caught, because most shops have detectives.
When you are waiting to be served in a shop, it is important not try to be served before people who arrive before you. Many foreign people are surprised at the British way of queuing (排隊(duì)).
【小題1】Most shops in Britain stay open for about ______ a day.
