1．B 解析：考查上下文串联。

hear听见；follow跟随，采纳；wait等待；enjoy喜欢。

当“我”走过森林的时候，听到有人在哭泣，所以“我”就跟着哭声找了过去。

A、C、D三项与上下文不搭配。

故B项正确。

2．A 解析：考查生活常识。

heart心灵；head头脑；body身体；waist 腰部。

她哭泣是因为生活太沉重，无法承受，才会通过哭来宣泄自己的情感。

与头脑、身体以及腰部无关。

故A项正确。

3．D 解析：考查动词辨析。

share分享；bring带来；fetch去取，去拿；offer提供。

看到对方在哭，所以“我”主动把“我”的肩膀给她依靠并用心倾听对方的诉说。

故D项正确。

5．D 解析：考查上下文串联。

故D项正确。

6．B 解析：考查形容词辨析。

puzzled困惑的；forced被迫的；tired 疲惫的；worried担忧的。

听到“我”这样说，她理解“我”鼓励她的意思，但她并没有从悲伤中走出来，所以强颜欢笑。

故B项正确。

7．A 解析：考查上下文串联。

“我”问她叫什么，她告诉“我”：“我叫Ann，但是我对生活已经没有希望了。

” 上下文之间是转折关系，所以使用but表示转折。

故A项正确。

8．C 解析：考查动词辨析。

transform运输；leave离开；convey传达；take带走。

tolerate忍受；serve服务，服役；hate讨厌，憎恨；treasure珍惜。

只有当我们爱自己的时候，别人才会珍惜我们。

10．A 解析：考查副词辨析。

therefore因此，however然而；otherwise 否则，要不然；moreover而且。

上下文之间是因果关系，所以使用therefore。

11．B 解析：考查生活常识。

根据1空后的I saw a woman sitting on the snow可知天气寒冷，这样的天气里的玫瑰花是很罕见的。

故B项正确。

12．C 解析：考查名词辨析。

pleasure快乐；friendship友谊；passion 激情；encouragement鼓励。

在生活中我们都需要有人说他信任“我”。

10.__________the people in the communication.
答案：[解题导语] 随着科技的发展，现代的交流方式多种多样，但是面对面交流和肢体语言交流仍是不可替代的交流方式。

1．which 解析：考查定语从句。

分析句子结构可知，该句为非限制性定语从句，先行词为forms of communication，关系词作从句的主语，故用which 引导该定语从句。

2．Using 解析：考查动名词。

分析句子结构可知，此处为动名词短语作主语，故用动名词Using。

3．but 解析：考查连词。

使用这些可替代的交流方式可能会更快捷，但是它们缺乏面对面交流所拥有的特点。

根据句意可知，两句间为转折关系，故用转折连词but。

4．possesses 解析：考查动词的时态和主谓一致。

根据上下文时态可知，空处应用一般现在时；该从句的主语是单数可数名词，故谓语动词用单数。

5．greatly 解析：考查副词。

空处修饰动词affect，故用副词形式greatly。

6．is thinking 解析：考查动词的时态。

根据该句中的“feeling” 和语境可知，面部表情和肢体语言能给人一些他人正在想什么的信息，故用现在进行时。

7．be applied 解析：考查被动语态。

主语Facial expression和动词apply为动宾关系，故用被动语态。

由 can可知，应填 be applied。

8．features 解析：考查名词的数。

根据下句中的“Giving someone a hug” 和“holding their hands” 可知，面对面交谈有两个身体特征，故用复数形式。

9．to comfort 解析：考查动词不定式。

根据句意可知，空处表示拥抱和握手的目的，故用动词不定式。

10．between 解析：考查介词。

这里表示“人们之间的联系”，应用介词between。

Ⅳ.短文改错
Years of life has taught me that it's less important to accept what people are and learn appreciate their differences than to try to expect what they can bring us in friendship.I learn this in a way I'll never forget.I use to believe that good friend should have everything in common.That's why one day I have a quarrel with my friend Rose，which had been my close friend.I simple couldn't figure out why she was always leaving everything until the last moment.It was later when I began to appreciate some qualities of hers that I lacked，but we became friends again.That experience has made me appreciate what qualities have been made my friends different from me.。
