可知，汉堡包大约在一百年前被出售。故选D。]14．C[细节理解题。由最后一段中的“Thisreason，formostEnglishwords，canbefoundinanylargeEnglishdictionary.”可知，这个原因，对于大多数英语单词，可以在任何大的英语词典中找到。故选C。]15．C[细节理解题。由第二段中的“HecookedsomeroundpiecesofbeeflikethosewhichthemenfromHamburgate.Thenheputeachbetweentwopiecesofbreadandstartedsellingthem.Suchbreadcametobecalled‘hamburgers’．”可知“汉堡包”这个词来自汉堡人吃的圆形牛肉片。故选C。]第二节【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。作者针对如何交到好朋友这一问题，给出了一些建议。16．D[此空出现在第一段，而且下文内容就是关于如何交朋友的具体方法，选项D“下面的信息可以给你一些建议。”正好起到了承上启下的作用。故选D。]17．F[联系本段的主题句“Befriendlytoothers.”可知，本段讲述的是对他人要友好。再结合选项可知，选项F“对他人微笑，你也肯定会得到一个微笑。”给出了建议，这正是一个友好的方式，故选F。]18．B[联系本段的主要内容，再根据下文的“Besomeonethatpeopleknowtheycandependon.”可知，要成为能够依靠的人。而通过上文的“Ifyouandyourfriendagreetomeetsomewhere，don'tbelate.(如果你和你的朋友约定在某个地方见面，不要迟到。)”可知，想要成为这样的人，就应该能说到做到。再结合选项可知，选项B“当你说你要做某事时，就去做。”，符合语境，故选B。]19．A[设空处是段落主题句。只有选项A和选项C符合要求。通过阅读空后的内容可知，本段讲的是仔细听别人讲的话。选项A“做一名好的听众。”切题，故选A。]20．G[通过段落主题句“Encourageyourfriends.”可知，这段讲述的是鼓励自己的朋友，而本段最后一句说的是支持自己的朋友。选项G“真正的朋友无论遇到好事还是坏事都会永远伴随你左右。”切题。故选G。]第二部分第一节【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者一家多年前去加拿大，穿过蒙大那州到科罗拉多州时，遇到当地旅游高峰，没有酒店可住，最终加油站工作人员邀请他们一家到家里住的故事。21．C[考查动词词义辨析。句意：因为时间不早了，我们开始找旅馆，结果发现在这个国家的那个地区是假期，所有的旅馆都订满了。A.appreciated感激，欣赏；B.risked冒险；C.started开始；D.imagined想象。根据上文的“Asitwasgettinglate”可知，时间不早了，所以“开始”找旅馆，started符合语境。故选C项。]22．A[考查名词词义辨析。句意：因为时间不早了，我们开始找旅馆，结果发现在这个国家的那个地区是度假期，所有的旅馆都订满了。A.holiday假日，度假期；B.harvest丰收，收获；C.work工作；D.arrival到达。根据下文内容可知，作者一家一直没订到酒店，由此可知，这里的酒店都被预订了，所以此时应该是旅游和度假的旺季，holiday符合语境。故选A项。]23．D[考查动词词义辨析。句意：因为时间不早了，我们开始找旅馆，结果发现在这个国家的那个地区是假期，所有的旅馆都订满了。A.affected影响；B.recommended推荐，建议；C.decorated装饰；D.booked预订。根据下文内容可知，作者一家一直没订到酒店，由此可知，这里的酒店都被预订了，booked符合语境。故选D项。]24．D[考查名词词义辨析。句意：我丈夫要了一本电话簿，并告诉柜台的女人我们正在找旅馆。A.application申请；B.picture图片；C.text课本、文本；D.phone电话。根据下文的“toldthewomanatthecounterthatweweretryingtofindahotel”和“Hetriedfor15minutes.”可知，作者的丈夫应该是要了一本电话簿，打电话预订酒店，phone符合语境。故选D项。]25．C[考查形容词词义辨析。句意：她告诉我们这不可能。A.believable可信的；B.significant重要的；C.impossible不可能的；D.normal正常的。根据上文的“allthehotelswere__23__．”以及下文的“Hetriedfor15minutes.Whenhewas__26__，thewoman，Linda，saidsheandherfamilylivednearbyandwouldbehappyifwespentthenightatherhome.”可知，这里的酒店都被订出去了，所以应该是“不可能”订到酒店的，impossible符合语境。故选C项。]26．D[考查形容词词义辨析。句意：当他没有成功时，这位名叫琳达的女士说，她和她的家人就住在附近，如果我们在她家过夜，她会很高兴。A.grateful感激的；B.pleased高兴的，满意的；C.embarrassed尴尬的；D.unsuccessful不成功的。根据“Hetriedfor15minutes.Whenhewas__26__，thewoman，Linda，saidsheandherfamilylivednearbyandwouldbehappyifwespentthenightatherhome.”可知，作者的丈夫试了十五分钟，还是没能订到，最后去了琳达家借住。由此可知，此处指“没能成功”，unsuccessful符合语境。故选D项。]27．B[考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我丈夫对她的慷慨表示惊讶。A.annoyed恼怒的，烦恼的；B.surprised惊讶的，诧异的；C.disappointed失望的，沮丧的；D.puzzled困惑的。根据下文的“herofferofgenerosity”可知，此处应是指对她的慷慨感到“惊讶”，surprised符合语境。故选B项。]28．A[考查动词词义辨析。句意：她叫她儿子来给我们带路，因为她必须在加油站工作到半夜。A.direct给……指路，指导；B.treat招待，对待；C.congratulate祝贺；D.teach教授。根据下文的是“Whenwereachedtheirhome，herhusband__29__us.”可知，琳达是叫她儿子来带路，direct符合语境。故选A项。]29．B[考查动词词义辨析。句意：当我们到达他们家时，她丈夫欢迎我们。A.recognized认出；B.welcomed欢迎；C.refused拒绝；D.questioned质疑。根据下文的“Heinvitedustohavecoffeeandchat”可知，琳达的丈夫很欢迎作者一家，welcomed符合语境。故选B项。]30．C[考查动词短语辨析。句意：他邀请我们在等他妻子的时候喝咖啡聊天。A.complainedto向……抱怨；B.turnedback往回走、阻挡；C.waitedfor等待；D.caredabout担心，关心。根据上文的“shehadtoworkatthegasstationtillmidnight”和下文的“Shecamebackpast12am.”可知，琳达要工作到午夜，所以现在是在等她，waitedfor符合语境。故选C项。]31．B[考查动词词义辨析。句意：为了不打扰他们，我们问是否可以在早上悄悄离开。A.comfort安慰；B.disturb打扰，妨碍；C.respect尊重；D.hurt伤害。根据上文的“Weaskedifwecouldslipawayinthemorning”可知，作者一家想早上悄悄离开，就是为了不打扰琳达一家，disturb符合语境。故选B项。]32．C[考查名词词义辨析。句意：他们说我们现在是客人，我们必须和他们一起吃早餐。A.strangers陌生人；B.tourists旅客；C.gues
