1.A.poverty B.loneliness
C.misery D.suffering
【解析】 名词辨析。由下文主要人物的谈话可以看出,玛丽一直从事的事业就是为那些没有人爱的孩子找到新家,让他们拥有父母,获得爱和希望,也就是让他们摆脱孤独(loneliness),而不是poverty贫穷,misery不幸,suffering痛苦。
【答案】 B
2.A.home B.place
C.school D.life
【解析】 名词辨析。由后面的the family以及下一段的for adoptive parents(养父母)可以看出,她是在为无家可归的孤儿找一个新的家,所以应选home。
【答案】 A
3.A.glory B.favor
C.habit D.tradition
【解析】 名词辨析。由语境可知,这些年来,玛丽每一次为孤儿找到一个新家的时候都要送给那家人一朵纸做的玫瑰花。所以要用tradition,意思是“惯例”,指因长久奉行而形成的习惯做法。glory光荣;favor喜爱;habit习惯,只用于表示个人习惯,强调习惯成自然。
【答案】 D
4.A.organizing B.planning
C.hosting D.attending
【解析】 动词辨析。由语境可知,这里指的是她正在主持(host)一个想收养孩子的父母参加的会议。干扰项attend一般指参加会议,通常不在组织会议中发挥作用。
【答案】 C
5.A.new B.grateful
C.kind D.active
【解析】 形容词辨析。这是为孤儿找新家的会议,这些父母都刚刚收养了孩子,因此应选new(新的)。
【答案】 A
6.A.broken B.faded
C.treasured D.dried
【解析】 形容词辨析。由第四段段末的so long ago可知,应选faded褪色的,(花)凋谢了的。语境为:他把手伸进衣兜,拿出了一朵褪色的红色的纸玫瑰花。
【答案】 B
7.A.tasteless B.powerless
C.priceless D.worthless
【解析】 形容词辨析。worthless意为“没有价值的,没有用的”。由下文的“I didn’t know the talents inside me”可知,他当时流浪街头,认为自己没用,认识不到自己的价值。priceless意为“无价的,贵重的”,与表达的意思正好相反;powerless无力的;tasteless没味道的。
【答案】 D
8.A.directed B.introduced
C.brought D.accepted
【解析】 动词辨析。语境为:然后玛丽把两个好人带进了(bring...into)我的生活。也就是说,他当年也是一个孤儿,是玛丽为他找到了养父母。注意introduce和into连用,表示引进,而不是介绍。
【答案】 C
9.A.loved B.protected
C.cared D.cheered
【解析】 动词辨析。由下文的They not only loved me...可知。
【答案】 A
10.A.silently B.continuously
C.unintentionally D.unconditionally
【解析】 副词辨析。由上文的“wonderful people”可以看出,他的养父母对他的爱应是无条件的(unconditionally)。silently沉默地;continuously持续地;unintentionally非故意地,非存心地。
【答案】 D
11.A.necessities B.possibilities
C.beauties D.riches
【解析】名词辨析。由第二段的“I didn’t know...what was possible for me”可以推出,这里要表达的意思是:我的养父母用鼓励我的方式(“Reach for your dreams”)带我进入了一个我以前不知道但已存在的潜力无穷的世界。possibilities发展前途,潜在价值。
【答案】 B
12.A.eager B.willing
C.proud D.lucky
【解析】 形容词辨析。由上文的描述可以看出,他认为收养一个孩子,用无条件的爱鼓励他成为一个有价值的人是很伟大的,所以得到这个机会他感到很自豪(proud)。
【答案】 C
13.A.started out B.came up
C.turned out D.grew up
【解析】 动词短语辨析。a child who started out (开始) just like me意思是:开始和我一样的(是个没人疼爱的)孤儿。come up出现;turn out结果是;grow up长大,都不符合语境。
【答案】 A
14.A.understand B.guess
C.tell D.know
【解析】 动词辨析。语境为:大家都知道(know)了很久以前,我妈妈是从哪里得到这朵玫瑰花的。
【答案】 D
15.A.replaces B.symbolizes
C.equals D.creates
【解析】 动词辨析。作者认为玛丽送给他的这朵玫瑰花象征着(symbolize)一个新的春天,自己收养的一个小女孩的新生活的开端(beginning),因为当年自己就是这样开始了美好生活的。
【答案】 B
16.A.chance B.mystery
C.challenge D.beginning
【解析】 名词辨析,见上题解析。

18.A.fix B.close
C.tie D.gather
【解析】 动词辨析。tie...together把……连接在一起。语境为:玛丽,谢谢您,因为您送的玫瑰花把我们的生活连接在了一起。文章最后一句也有暗示。
【答案】 C
19.A.cause B.push
C.put D.leave
【解析】 动词辨析。leave sb.in quiet使某人处于安静状态。
【答案】 D
20.A.Yet B.Besides
C.Otherwise D.Therefore
【解析】 连词辨析。该句和上文是转折关系,所以要用yet,意思是“可是,却,然而”。语境为:一件简单的事情可以使我们的精神飞扬或使我们安静下来考虑一个新的开端。然而像玛丽的玫瑰花一样的小东西,也可以把有意义的东西连接在一起。
【答案】 A
Ⅳ.阅读理解
(2010届英语周报第2期,A)
It was the hardest thing I ever had to do as a mother.But I knew I had to let my daughter,my only child,go.
In a few months,Sophie was going to college.We had so much to be happy about,but I was nervous,too.I knew I had to do something to help myself through the summer.
Sophie had a pack of Tshirts that she wouldn’t wear and didn’t want to get rid of,so I decided to make a quilt (被子) out of them for her bed at college.It focused my energy,and also let me relive some memories.
I tried to work on the quilt when Sophie wasn’t home—which turned out to be often.She was very busy with her friends.Even when she was around,her door was shut more than usual.I felt a bit hurt.After all,we didn’t have much time together before she went to college.I was already missing her,but she hadn’t even left yet!
The day finally came.When we arrived at the college,a wave of emotion swept over me.I tried to hold it back,but Sophie saw it in my face.She took out a beautiful book from her bag.“I made this for you,Mom,”she said.Then I knew why she had been staying behind a closed door that summer.It was an album of photographs documenting the life of our family over the last 17 years.
I broke into tears.Some of it was sadness at having to let her go,but there was joy,too.I knew that our connection was more powerful than ever,and that we’d always be connected by the love that went into every stitch (针脚) of her quilt and every photo in my album.
When we helped Sophie settle in her dorm,I unfolded the quilt on her bed.For a moment she was speechless.Then she threw her arms around me.“Mom,I love you,”she said.
One of her new friends was calling her outside.Sophie turned,and I let her go.
