参考答案
(一)
1．C 根据后两句的内容可知作者当时在和朋友“争论〞。

此外，第三段第二句中的argument 也是线索提示。

2．D 根据下一句后半句中的内容可知，作者请“〞来解决这个问题。

3．A“证明〞 (prove)自己是正确的。

4．D“犹豫〞地答复说鲸鱼不是哺乳动物，而是鱼。

without hesitation意为“毫不犹豫〞。

5．C 作者知晓鲸鱼是哺乳动物，在与朋友争辩中显然为自己知道事实真相而感到“自豪〞6．D“吃惊〞，一时无话可说。

7．B 此句是“not only...but also...〞结构，表示“不但……而且……〞，but后面省略了also。

8．D common knowledge表示“常识〞，此处common表示“普通的，平常的〞。

她不但错了，而且她对作者认为的常识完全不知晓。

前三项分别表示“特殊的〞、“正常的〞、“规律的〞，都不符合所给语境。

9．C 上一句中提到她的教龄很长，再结合本句后半句的内容可知每个人都“相信〞她的话。

A项表示“取悦〞；B项表示“钦佩，羡慕〞；D项表示“喜爱〞，均不符合语意。

10．A 在此之前，作者一直不知道成年人也犯错。

而C项构成“not...until...〞结构，主
语的谓语动词一般是短暂性动词，所以用在此处不适宜。

B、D两项均不符合语意。

应选A项。

11．D 上述事件在作者的成长过程中“极大地〞影响了对别人的看法。

A项表示“相当地〞时，通常用来修饰形容词或副词；B项表示“适当地〞；C项表示“几乎〞，均不符合语意。

12．A 此处所要表达的意思是“每当〞作者发现有人对另外一个人过于尊敬或崇拜的时候……所以用whenever“无论何时〞。

虽然C项也可以表示“当……时候〞，但是谓语动词应该是延续性动词，所以不可选。

B、D两项都不符合语意。

13．B 此处that承接上文，指代本句前半句的内容，即有人过于尊敬或崇拜另一个人的做法。

14．B 上一句中提到作者厌恶人们过于尊敬或崇拜他人，由此可知作者不再“尊重〞所谓的权威。

此外，下一句中To earn my respect也是线索提示。

15．C “鲸鱼〞事件后，作者改变了以往的做法，开始看重聪明才智，而不是地位或者学位的上下。

talented意为“有才能的〞；energetic意为“精力充分的〞；patient意为“有耐心的〞；diligent意为“刻苦的〞。

(二)【文章大意】滴水之恩，涌泉相报。

凯利医生小时候为了攒够学费挨家挨户地推销商品。

饥寒交迫之时他得到了一位女士的一大杯牛奶。

数年之后，当这名女士生病住院，正为医药费发愁时，医药费通知单上“医药费已付：一杯牛奶。

〞的签字使她简直难以相信：给她治病的医生正是当年的小男孩。

1．B 他很饿，而且他没剩多少钱，所以他决定到下一户去乞讨。

2．A lose one's nerve是“不知所措〞之意。

其他不合句意。

3．D 这位女士不是给他一杯水，而是给他一杯牛奶，可见她认为这个孩子饿了。

4．A 句意：你不欠我什么。

应选A。

5．C 句意：我妈妈教导我，施以爱心，不图回报。

6．A 喝了牛奶之后，这男孩感到浑身有劲了。

physically是“体力上〞之意。

7．C 根据常理判断，应该是“数年之后〞。

8．D call in有“叫/请过来〞之意。

9．D 从后面看Howard Kelly医生被人家请来会诊，且有批准减免医药费的权力，应选famous 比拟适宜。

10．A 当他听到病人来自的那个城镇的名字时，他的眼睛充满奇怪的光荣。

11．C recognize认出。

12．B case 在此是“病案〞之意。

13．D 此题可从语法角度考虑。

Kelly医生要求把那位女士的医疗费最终账单送过来让他批准。

14．B 治病的费用将会花费她整个余生来归还。

15．D catch one's attention吸引某人的注意。

(三)

3．A 由announced 得知，我和弟弟每周只能看二到三个预先挑选好的电视节目。

4．B 由上下文可知，母亲非常严厉。

我们每人必须阅读从底特律公共图书馆借来的两本书，还要上交读书心得。

present sth.to sb.意为“把某物呈交给某人〞。

5．D 由My mother was illiterate.得知，此处是指“计策〞，应选D。

6．B 此处是原因：想要漂亮衣服，想和别人出去闲逛。

hang out意为“闲逛〞。

7．C 由下文scrubbing floors and cleaning bathrooms可知，此处意为：母亲干完各种活儿回到家。

working 在此用作及物动词，意为“完成，干完〞。

8．D 此处是buy sb.sth.的结构。

意为：由你来替这个家买伙食、付账单。

9．B 因为由自己理财并从中想赚一点钱，很显然，这样的决定让“我〞开心不已。

10．C 我的母亲不愧是个理财能手，她能让我们有地方住、有各种各样的食物吃，更不用说买衣服了。

11．A let alone意为“更不用说〞；let out意为“使放出〞；let in意为“使进入〞；leave alone意为“不理会，不理睬〞。

12．C 通过这件事，“我〞还意识到，一时的满足并不会给“我〞带来什么成就，而成功需要智力上的准备。

于是“我〞又发奋努力学习。

13．B 最终“我〞实现了自己当医生的梦想。
