完形填空Last Christmas while staying with my parents, I1across some old love letters that my parents wrote to each other. these letters were all piled up in a basket, dirty and2with dust.3to read and sort them, I asked them if I could take the letters back to my Illinois home. They agreed. As I carefully opened each letter, all of them4with age, I discovered a new page5unknown to me in this private chapter of my parents’ lives. My father used to 6 in the army. So his letters were full of frontline(前线)7of the things about the war. Each of my mother’s letters was marked with her 1944 dark red lipstick(口红) kiss. I was 8to these letters like a magnet(磁铁). Just six weeks after our Christmas visit, Daddy became very9and was hospitalized(住院). This time, he was fighting a10kind of war. As I sat by his bedside, we discussed the11.

From the13letters I chose the card my father had sent mother in 1944 and brought it to my father’s bedside. At his bedside, I joked with him, saying14.“Today is Valentine’s Day, don’t you want to sent Mother a present?” He became more15when I handed him the old16.

CABDB ABBCA DBCAC DDACD解析1.came across偶然碰到。hit和draw都是及物动词,所以错。2.形容letter(信)的四个过去分词。Hidden被藏在,covered表层被覆盖;buried被埋在;filled里面充满了。结合后文的dust(灰尘),可知信件应该是表层有些尘土。3.作状语的四个现在分词。此题的题眼在于找到非谓语动词和逻辑主语I之间的逻辑关系。装作、建议、偏爱这三个词明显跟“我”要做的动作(读信)搭配不合适,选择“决定”更为合适。4. delicate除了比较熟悉的“精美的”意思外,还有易碎的,脆弱的意思。此处根据前文的carefully小心打开和后文的with age经历岁月的洗礼,可知颇有历史年份的信应该是很脆弱的了。此题难。5.副词修饰unknown,根据上下文,应该选择“先前”不知道的关于父母生活的page。词汇量过关的话,此题易。6.in the army告诉我们该空应该填vi.是以report是不正确的。根据本节其他内容,可知父亲在信中多数都是描写当时的战事,是以该空应该表达父亲当时在军队“服役”,work in 指在……工作,但serve一词本意指“服务于”,所以选C。7.account除了耳熟能详的“账户”意思外,还可以作“记述”讲;document文件;introduction介绍;occupation工作、职业。结合前文,信中应该写到关于前线战事的“记述”。8.正负的力量。四个用于表示被动语态的过去分词。根据后面中文解释的“磁铁”可知,我应该是“被吸引了”draw本意是“拉”,draw one’s attention等相关词组中,draw的引申义为“吸引”devote to(贡献,投身于)应用主动;abandon(抛弃、背弃)和throw(扔)都属于负向的词汇,不合语境。9.根据后文hosiptalized(住院),可知父亲当时是生病了。此题易,写选项dead扯。10.正负的力量。A典型的C不同的是负向的,B传统的D熟悉的是正向的。用于修饰war,因为前文提到父亲是饱经战事的军人,现在又生病了,生病对于他应该是一场和之前不一样的战争,是以选择负向的,C选项。11.重复的力量,letters这个意象在文中出现多次,且接下来的后一句父亲和我提到了信对他的意义。12.语法题,此题看起来像是考察动词接不定式作宾语,但其实根据本句的语法结构,横线上所填动词的宾语应该是宾从的引导词how much。正确理解的语序应该是letters meant too much to him。此题难。13.重复的力量。前文提到我“决定”(18题)read and sort the letters,所以此处应该填被分类过了的信。14.正负的力量。四个副词中,AB是负向的,C轻柔的是正向的,D是中性的。根据前文提供情景,我当时出现在父亲的病床边,应该选择整想的“轻柔地”对他说话。15.作表语的四个形容词,根据上文的joke可知我在父亲病床前和他开了个善意的玩笑,并没有直接把信拿出来,是以父亲“上套”,感到好奇。16.根据后文的open it可知此处应该是信封,此题易。后文说card在里面,所以不选A;basket扯,lipstick前文虽然提到,但是它不能被打开。17.A发现;B写;C认出;D思念或者错失。信(卡片)是之前写过的,所以B错。信是我找到的,所以A错。D扯。根据语境应该是父亲认出了信。18.根据前文可知此处名词应该和voice相关。震惊的声音;悲伤的声音;孱弱的声音;动情的声音。根据上文,眼中充斥眼泪,可知此处应该填“充满感情的”。19.该空需要结合后文sent to my mother.由此可知应该是sent loving message(s) to my mother.其余各选项都与定从中的sent搭配不上。20. A“平和的” B“私下的”C“在危险之中”D“亲自的”,根据上文,And this time,可知应该是“并且这一次,他可以亲自把信读给母亲听了”。
