15、前的no可以排解其他选项。2Chang around意思是“在四周游荡”。come around表示“恢复知觉;回来”,与语境不符;依据下文匪帮攻击作者可知此处不是说匪帮打架。3C在这里作者讲自己经常回家,因此visits最合适,visit有短暂访问之意。A项不符合生活常规; B项holidays应当不会经常有;从空前的one of我们知道D项不合适。4D从空后的“. but I was 23 and I needed to be on my own.”可以知道,父亲担忧的是我一个人生活。联系空后内容,可以排解其他选项。5A从空后的toward the gate知道,此时“我”关好灯锁好门后朝
16、大门走去。rush“冲”; wander“徘徊”,不符合作者此时发觉特别状况的场景。6B从下文第四段“查看了全部出口后,我在学校的后门下方找到了一个可以挤出去的空”可知,当“我”走到大门时,发觉门已经被锁上了。分析下文,若大门是关上的,“我”可以打开出去,就不需要另找出口了,故A项错误。7A大门被锁,“我”去检查全部的出口。search sth.“搜查某物”; try“尝试”,依据意思可以排解。8D从空后的“. to squeeze(钻) under a gate in the back of the school.”可以知道,“我”找的是门下的空间,room“空间”。此处作者找的是可以出去的
17、出口,而非时间、地面和力气。9B从空后的around可以知道是环顾四周。glance“扫视;匆忙一看”。从后面“看到至少有八个男孩跟在我后面”可以排解C、D两项; glare at“怒目而视”。10A由于状况紧急,此时“我”加快了脚步。“减慢”、“缩短”和“定时”不符合此时的紧急状况。11C“我”摸遍了包里面的角落。feel在这里指“用手摸”。touch的意思是“碰;接触”,在这里作者不是去碰,而是在包里摸索钥匙,故排解touch。12A从下文的“Dear Lord, please help me.”可知她没有在包里找到钥匙,there是指“in the purse”。本空承接上面的the i
18、nside,因此不用inside,这样能避开重复。13D“Dear Lord, please help me.”是“我”在心里的祈祷,因此用silently。nervously“神经紧急地”,在此不能用于祈祷。14C“我”甚至不知道它是不是我的车钥匙,但“我”拿出钥匙从下文It worked我们知道,车竟开了!可推断“我”只是拿钥匙试着开了一下。联系“I didnt even know if it was for my car .”及下文对车发动起来的感叹,可以排解这些选项。15Aas在此相当于when,表示“当这些孩子们聚集过来的时候”。while更强调“在同时”。16C从空前的“I sta
19、rted the engine .”可知,车子开走了。escape后不接away,故排解; run away“跑开”; go away“走开”,与文意不符。17B由文章其次段中父亲对我的担忧可推出最有可能是父亲打电话给我。其他三项文中没有信息提示。18D由文章其次段中父亲对我一个人生活很担忧,可知此处“I didnt tell him about my experience.”的缘由是“我”不想让他为“我”担忧。displease一般表示做了不好的事情而使别人不兴奋,故排解。19A联系上下文可以知道,除了“我”原有的钥匙外,父亲又为“我”配了一把钥匙,因此说是extra car key。“有用
20、的”,“特殊的”都不是作者父亲想说明的。20C从空后的“. you ever need it.”可以知道,他为“我”配这钥匙的目的是以备“我”用,in case“万一”。even if“即使”; on condition that“假如;只要”; in time“准时”,由语境可以排解这三个选项。.七选五“Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” Lao TzuIf you are in a city where everyone rushes, realize that you dont have to be like e
