42、拿来分享给需要它们的一家人，这令作者的内心感触很深。同时告诉我们分享最重要的是那份心意，是那份企盼，和那份热情！16D根据倒数第二段可知，那天晚上母亲的善举给自己感触很深，使“我”学到了与他人共享的乐趣，所以那天晚上对于作者来说应该是“特殊的(particular)”。17Ahead towards“向某处前进”，本句指的是“我”和妈妈从车里出来朝着一个饭馆前进。18B根据倒数第三段最后一句话“how she was the same age as me”可知这个女孩和我同龄，用age“年龄”来表达。19C本句是指这对母女和我们讨要零钱，所以用spare“多余的；闲置的”来表示这对母女的虔诚之

43、心，也表示她们感到很不好意思。20D本句用immediately“立刻；马上”来形容作者的母亲的善良和乐于助人，当她看到这对母女的困境时，想“立刻”知道她们住哪里，才会出现下文回家拿东西帮助她们的善举。21B前文中说母亲问她们住在哪里，此处意为“她们指着对面停车场里的一辆旧车”， point to“指着”。22A根据上文的“asked where they lived”可知，此处指女孩说她们一家6口人住在和我卧室一样大小的车里，指居住的空间用live。23A根据本段最后一句“But she didnt come.”和下一段的内容可知，“我”的妈妈说有些事情要做，所以没和“我们”一起进入饭店，而

44、是回家去帮这对母女取东西。have something to do“有些事情要做”。24C根据前文可知作者和妈妈要去饭店，而后文中说妈妈没有进去，故此处指“我”和爸爸先进人饭店，而妈妈没有进入。25Dempty sth. into意为“把东西倒空装入里”，本句指的是妈妈回家把柜橱里的东西都倒空装入几个袋子里，然后把它们带到刚才和我们讨要钱的那家车那里。26A根据上文的“our cupboards into a few bags”可知，这里指的是妈妈把装满东西的“袋子(bags)”带到这对母女所在的车那儿。27B根据情境可推知，当在这个旧车里的人得到“我”妈妈送的东西时，应该是脸上表现出“高兴(

45、joy)”的表情。surprise意为“吃惊”。根据实际情况可知，收到好心人送的东西时首先是高兴，而不是震惊。28C几天后“我”问妈妈“为什么(why)”去帮助那些人时，“我”妈妈告诉我接下来的一些事。29B根据下文的“her family wasnt as lucky”可知，本句是一个对比，“我们”是幸运的，然而那个女孩的一家是不幸的，fortunate和lucky为近义词。30A“我”记得当时和“我们”讨要零钱的那个女孩的“脸”(face)。31B根据第二段第19空可知选择change“零钱”。32C根据本句中的转折连词yet选择different和same对比，表示相差的悬殊，那个女孩和

46、“我”同岁，但是“我们”和她们相比看起来是如此不同。33C“我”想到那个女孩没有食物可以吃，她要返回那个和其他5个人共享的冰冷的车里。这里用shared作后置定语修饰a cold car。34B“我”将“永远不会(never)”忘记那天晚上“我”的母亲所做的事。35Alearn the lessons意为“学到道理”，“我”的母亲教会“我”曾经学到的最好的人生哲理。第二节语法填空(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，在空格处填入适当的内容(每空不多于三个单词)或使用括号中单词的正确形式填空，并将答案填写在相应位置上。Flying has made 36._ much easi

50、。whether . or .“无论还是”。39draft该空所填动词在句中作谓语，且是祈使句句式，应填原形draft。40surroundings所给词置your new之后，应用名词形式，故填surroundings“环境”。41whichwhich引导非限制性定语从句修饰先行词your new life。42and根据固定短语day in and day out“日复一日”可知该空填and。43acomfort作“令人安慰的事”之意时，前面应加不定冠词a。44Ifif表“如果”，引导条件状语从句。45upkeep it up“继续”。第三部分写作(共两节，满分35分)第一节短文改错(每小

51、题1分，满分10分)英语课上，老师要求同桌同学相互修改作文。假设以下短文为你同桌所写，请你对其进行修改。文中共有10处错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏词符号()，并在此符号下面写出该加的词。删除：把多余的词用斜线()划掉。修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词。2只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。3必须按答题要求做题，否则不给分。My family went on a trip to the Hukou Waterfalls at last weekend.
