An idea occurs to me that going to Switzerland for traveling will be marvelous! 我想到去瑞士旅游会很棒!
2. happen常指具体事件的发生，特别指那些偶然的或未能预见的“发生”，是不及物动词。例如：How did the accident happen? 这事故是怎样发生的?
If anything happens, please let me know. 有什么事发生，请告诉我。
如果happen后接不定式，是“碰巧”的意思。如：
I happened to meet him on my way home. 我在回家的路上碰巧遇到他。
注意：happen和happen to都是不及物动词或短语，不能用于被动语态。学科*网

点睛：1. 完形填空解题技巧之一：上下联系—寻信息。完形填空中经常会出现前面的信息为后面的空白提供暗示，而后面的信息有可能是前面空白的答案的情况。这时，要联系上下文，寻求信息以确定答案。第18小题，考生可以根据前两句中的“wallet”和第三段中的“wallet”来确定答案。
2. 完形填空解题技巧二：左顾右盼—找搭配。英语中，有些单词词义相近，而句型结构及跟其他词的搭配却截然不同。考生不能单从词义上去辨析，而应审查空白前后的名词、动词、介词或非谓语动词等，比较与各选项的搭配关系，然后确定答案。在33题中，考生可以根据该空前的faith确定搭配关系。如果考生从show来入手，那么就很困难了。

完型填空题的命题特点及答题方法：
1.侧重基础知识，考查学生语言知识的能力
完型填空以文入手，结合文章的内容考查学生的基础知识，主要是词语搭配、固定句型、近义词辨析、辨析句子结构、掌握语法规则的能力，其中考查实词居多。比如最后一题who are making a 55 in the world. 根据选项提供的词马上就可以判断此处为固定短语：make a difference：起作用，有影响，选D。
2.上下文对照，考查学生捕捉关键词的能力
解完型填空题时，单独看一句话是找不到正确答案的，需要注意句子间的关系及句子与段落的关系。所谓上下对照，即在上文和下文中找到与正确答案相同的关键词。因此，在做题时要边读边在大脑中储存上下文信息的能力，捕捉关键词。
3.设置语境，考查学生的分析推理能力
旨在考查学生在选项都符合语法及句子结构的情况下能否利用前后语境去推断出正确答案。例如第51空，she has received a lot of 51 。她收到了很多的 。这是就要考虑到下文了，因为下文有这方面的举例，是给她颁奖，由此可判断是对她的赞美，故答案为A。
4.结合生活，考查学生利用常识题的能力
目的考查学生的生活常识，看看学生是否善于观察生活，积累生活常识，能否利用常识去做恰当的选择。
5.关注连词，考查学生对行文逻辑、句子关联的理解能力
此项用来考查学生在缺少连词的情况想，通过阅读能否理解句子的与句子的关系，是否了解行文逻辑的要求，能否掌握表示因果、转折、并列、条件、让步等的连词的用法。

【名师点睛】
完形填空的首句往往开宗明义，是文章的主题。细读首句可启示全文。而尾句往往是对文章主题的总结。所以，它们是了解文章大意的一个窗口，对我们理解全文有着重要的启示作用。因此，要充分利用段首句提供的信息，去挖掘文章的思路，寻找文章的脉络与线索。一般来讲，高考完形填空的首、尾句通常是不挖空的。先跳读这两句，便可判断体裁，猜想它要讲的内容。若首句交代了when, where, who, what，即四个W，那么就是记叙文，很可能就是一个故事，为了测试语篇的理解能力，出题者特别注意选材的趣味性，其结尾往往出人意料，耐人寻味。
本题而言，文章开头部分“For a long time Gabriel didn’t want to be involved in music at all. In his first years of high school, Gabriel would look pityingly at music students...”告诉了我们一些很有价值的信息，比如：“For a long time”的暗示作用。Gabriel一点也不想接触音乐，这种想法已经存在很久了，暗示他可能会开始学习音乐。“look pityingly at music students”同情地看着学习音乐的学生，也为下文的转折做了铺垫。
另外，完形填空题中对词汇知识的考查，主要体现在习惯用法和同义词、近义词的辨析两方面。习惯用法是英语中某种固定的结构形态，即所谓的“习语”，不能随意改动。所以，考生平时应掌握好习惯用法。对词义辨析题的考查有加大力度的趋势。要做好这类题，需要有较大的词汇量和词语搭配能力、词语辨析能力，特别是在特定的语境中能灵活运用的能力。本题的44、47就是考查了近义词的辨析，第47题的taste误导性很大。
同时，信息的复现也是完形填空的一个特点。语篇复现的信息包括原词复现、同义词和反义词复现、上义词和下义词复现、概括词复现和代词复现等。语篇中有词汇和结构同现的现象，如与语篇话题相关、意义相关的词汇同时出现，结构同现，同义同现，修饰同现，因果同现等。因此，可以利用上下文寻找解题信息，从而确定正确答案。学科*网

This newness just left me __51__ more.
After that, feeling the need to __52__ further, I decided to drop in on one of ASL club's meetings. I only learned how to __53__ the alphabet that day. Yet instead of being discouraged by my __54__ progress，I was excited. I then made it a point to __55__ those meetings and learn all I could.
The following term, I __56__ an ASL class. The professor was deaf and any talking was __57__. I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant. __58__，if there had been any talking, it would have __59__ us to learn less. Now, I appreciate the silence and the __60__ way of communication it opens.

【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在大学期间学习美式手语的经历。刚开始作者认为自己没有必要学习手语，直到有一次看到手语俱乐部的表演，作者深深地为之吸引，从而产生了学习手语的渴望。

42. B　“我”发现的某些东西改变了“我”的大学生活经历。progress进步； experience经历； major主修课目； opinion观点。故选B。
43. C　“我”以前从没有过学习手语的冲动。choose选择； read看，读； learn学习；create创造。故选C。
44. D　根据前文“My entire family is hearing, and so are all my friends.”可知，作者的家人及朋友都可以听得到，作者认为在平时的交流中，口语就足够了。official官方的；foreign外国的；body肢体；spoken口语的。故选D。
45. A　“我”没想过“我”会发现自己对美式手语的热爱。前文中“I never felt an urge to…any sign language before.”表明作者以前从未想过学习手语，而根据后文内容可知，作者非常喜欢手语。love热爱；concern关心，顾虑；goal目标；request请求。故选A。
46. C　故事发生在“我”上大学的第一周。这里作者开始讲述在大学学习手语的事情。meeting会议； trip旅行；story故事；task任务。故选C。
47. B　“我”观看ASL 俱乐部表演一首歌的内容。通过分析可知ASL 俱乐部是手语俱乐部，故应该是在用手语表演一首歌。record记录；perform表现，表演；recite背诵；discuss讨论。故选B。
48. A　手部的动作和不用语言进行交流的想法吸引了“我”。作者当时在看手语表演，而手语就是借助手势进行交流。idea想法；amount数量；dream梦想；reason原因。故选A。
49. D　分析语境可知ASL 俱乐部的表演吸引了作者，否则作者也不会去学习手语。disturb打扰； support支持；embarrass使……难堪；attract吸引。故选D。
50. B　“我”所看到的和“我”在过去所经历的事情完全不同。 end结束，末尾；past过去；course课程；distance距离。固定短语in the past意为“在过去”，故选B。
51. D　这种新奇的感觉使“我”想了解更多。分析语境可知作者被手语吸引，想要进一步了解手语，所以也有了后文中的参加手语俱乐部的会议。show展示；act行动；say说；want想要。故选D。
52. B　在那之后，“我”想要探索更多关于手语的东西，于是“我”参加了ASL 俱乐部的一次会议。exercise锻炼； explore探索；express表达；explain解释。故选B。
53. C　那天“我”只学会了用手语表达字母。作者第一次参加手语俱乐部的会议，学会的应该是最基本的用手语表达字母。print打印；write写；sign打手语；count数。故选C。
54. A　“我”并没有因为自己缓慢的进步而沮丧，相反“我”很兴奋。因为作者只学会了用手语表达字母，所以进步是很慢的。slow缓慢的；steady平稳的； normal正常的；obvious明显的。故选A。
55. C　“我”那时下定决心参加俱乐部所有的会议去学习“我”能学习的一切。chair主持；sponsor赞助；attend参加；organize组织。attend meetings参加会议。故选C。
56. D　接下来的一个学期，“我”报名参加了一个手语班。miss错过，想念；pass通过；give up放弃；register for报名登记。故选D。
57. A　教授的耳朵听不见，任何口语交流都是被禁止的。根据后文“…if there had been any talking…”可知在课堂上没有口语交流。prohibit禁止；welcome欢迎；ignore忽视；repeat重复。故选A。
58. C　相反，如果有口语交流，那只会造成“我们”学习更少的手语。根据前文“I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant.”可知作者很快意识到安静并不是令人不愉快的。lastly最后，终于；thus因此；instead反而；however然而。故选C。
59. B　如果有口语交流，那只会造成“我们”学的手语更少。require要求；cause造成；allow允许；expect期待。故选B。
60. D　现在“我”很感激当时的安静并且享受它带来的一种新的交流方式。easy简单的；popular受欢迎的；quick快速的；new新的。故选D。

“记叙文”类完形填空主要包括幽默故事、名人传记、事件叙述等。文中以叙述为主，通过人物之间的对话来反映人们对事件的看法及其起因。叙述上多半用平述的形式，很少加入作者的评论。 因此如果对文章上下文情景把握不住，就会失分。为了减少失分率，考生可以参考以下几点：
1、首先读懂文章的首句，把握全篇，弄清文章要讲什么。
完形填空一般没有标题，读懂第一句很关键。第一句一般不留空，是个完整的句子，整篇文窜的信息从此句开始。因此读好第一句不仅能够把握文章要讲什么内容，而且也可能把握作者的写作态度。因此，考生最好在读完第一句话后，不要急于看下一句，而是应先根据首句内容，对下文所要出现的故事进行一下推测，这有利于靠近作者的思路，避免走弯路。根据文章第一段的第一句While high school does not generally encourage students to explore new aspects of life,college sets the stage for that exploration.可知作者在大学期间探索某些东西。所以第41题I myself went through this 41 process划线处应该填searching，和前文中的exploration呼应。
2、先通读全文，掌握大意，理清各种角色。
记叙文一般有两个或两个以上的角色，作者对这些角色的态度各不一样，即使同样—件事发生在不同人身上作者也可能采用不同的写作描述。
3、理顺事件的发生、发展、结局
记叙文的多项选择式完形填空题多半以事情发展的顺序进行叙述。正确把握文章的发展顺序对于把握文章的主旨有着重要的意义，因此在选择答案时可以先理情人物的关系及各自所做的事情。
例如第57题The professor was deaf and any talking was 57 . I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant.可知作者参加报名上手语课，教授的耳朵是听不见的，这是符合情理的。按照事情的发展，考生可以推测课堂上讲话应该是不允许的。所以选择A选项prohibit，表示“禁止”。

本篇完形填空很好地体现出重在考查语篇理解能力，且不在情节上、词汇考查大做文章的趋势。其中对于语篇的上下文复现考查非常之多。 语篇复现的信息包括原词复现、同义词和反义词复现、上义词和下义词复现、概括词复现和代词复现等。语篇中有词汇和结构同现的现象，如与语篇话题相关、意义相关的词汇同时出现，结构同现，同义同现，修饰同现，因果同现等。因此，利用上下文寻找解题信息，确定正确答案。如：
I learned that Freddy did several jobs after his 52 from high school and remained the same 53 person I met forty years before .
A.daring B.modest C.caring D.smart
【分析】同义词同现，根据第二段第二句“He had the rare balance of fun and compassion(同情)”，这里的compassion与选项中的caring虽然词性不同，但表达的是相同的意思，属于同义词同现。

55. B　他没有盼望得到回报，只是不想让票浪费了。look for意为“寻找”。leave留下；lose丢失；deal with 处理。

解答完形填空的三大策略
词语同现、词语复现和逻辑推理是解答完形填空的三大策略，领会和掌握这三大策略对提高完形填空的解题速度和准确率大有裨益。
1. 词语同现。
词语同现是指意义上相关的词汇出现在同一语篇中，构成了以某一话题为中心的词汇链，也有人称之为语义场。比如They told her to stay 52 until the emergency personnel arrived。
52. A. quiet B. still C. away D. calm
根据后文中she should not move，可以判断选B。
2. 词语复现。
词语复现指某一个词以原词、同根词、同义词、反义词(如wrong, not correct)、上义词、下义词等方式重复出现在语篇中，语篇中的句子通过这种复现关系达到相互衔接。比如： One more look and he noticed 45 shooting out。45. A. flames B. smoke C. water D. steam
根据后句中the fire was put out.判断选A。
3. 逻辑推理。
在做完形填空时许多考生都会有这样的经历，即使他们对选项当中的每个词的意思都非常清楚，但得分不高。因为完形填空考查的是一种综合能力，不但是对词汇的考查，而且对句子间和上下文之间逻辑关系的推断也是完形填空考查的重点。其中逻辑关系主要包括因果关系、转折关系、对比关系、并列关系等。

完形填空具体解题技巧：
【技巧一】利用逻辑关系语，定位相关选项
逻辑关系语指表示各种逻辑意义的连句手段，主要有：
(1)词(包括连词、副词和少数介词)，如and, but, or, because, though, however, yet, therefore, otherwise, despite等；
(2)短语，如in other words, or rather, in addition, as a result, so that, on the contrary, instead of等；
(3)分句和独立结构，如that is to say, what is more, all things considered等。逻辑关系语对准确理解语篇意义能够起到很强的提示作用。完形填空中很多题目都围绕它们而设。考生在解题时要充分利用这些逻辑关系语，找到与文中某些词、短语有密切关系的选项，如其同义词、近义词或反义词等，有时这些词、短语甚至复现在文中。
【技巧二】通晓上下文意，注意习惯搭配
词汇的习惯用法或固定搭配，特别是动词、名词、形容词、介词等的搭配在完形填空题中出现的比例很大。如果考生在备考时对常用的习惯用法或固定搭配能牢固地掌握，并在解题时灵活运用，就能达到事半功倍的效果。
【技巧三】明确文章语境，搞清词语差异
高考完形填空选项的设置一般均属于同一词类，有的甚至在意义上也非常接近。为了顺利解答此类问题，考生在平时记忆单词时，要在例句中把握其用法并能在考试中结合语境，比较四个选项的细微差别，推敲什么是最佳答案。
【技巧四】探究前后逻辑，确定连接词汇
连接词是构成语篇的纽带，也是相关语句信息的结合点。命题人常在这些“关节”上设置题目，考查学生的语用能力。因此，考生在解题时，要仔细分析，推理前后的逻辑关系，确定最佳选项。

The journey my daughter Cathy has had with her swimming is as long as it is beautiful.
Cathy suffered some terrible 16 in her early childhood. After years of regular treatment, she 17 became healthy.
Two years ago, while Cathy was watching the Olympics, a dream came into her sweet little head—to be a swimmer. Last summer, she wanted to 18 out local swim team. She practiced hard and finally 19 it. The team practice, 20 was a rough start. She coughed and choked and could hardly 21 her first few weeks. Hearing her coughing bitterly one night, I decided to 22 her from it all. But Cathy woke me up early next morning, wearing her swimsuit 23 to go! I told her she shouldn’t swim after a whole night’s coughing, but she refused to 24 and insisted she go .
From that day on, Cathy kept swimming and didn’t 25 a single practice. She had a 26 intention within herself to be the best she could be. My ten—year—old was growing and changing right before my eyes, into this 27 human being with a passion and a mission.

Then came the final awards ceremony at the end of the year. Cathy didn’t expect any award but was still there to 30 her friends and praise their accomplishments. As the ceremony was nearing the end, I suddenly heard the head coach 31 , “The highest honor goes to Cathy!” Looking around, he continued, “Cathy has inspired us with her 32 and enthusiasm. 33 skills and talents bring great success, the most valuable asset(财富)one can hold is the heart.”

【名师点睛】这篇文章是记叙文，难度适中，这类文章首先要通读抓住故事发生的情节和作者想传达的中心思想。围绕主旨解答更有把握。故事内容体现了Cathy的坚持不懈的毅力和执着的精神。学生要抓住这个主题，而且这个主题贯穿整个文章。这个文章一个明显的特点是上下文之间的联系非常紧密。做题时要牢记上下文的关联对解题会很有帮助。
做题时要结合完形填空的特点，完形填空题有的考查词语同现、词语复现，有的则是要运用逻辑推理能力，领会和掌握解题策略对提高完形填空的解题速度和准确率大有裨益。
1. 上下文串联和语境暗示。
这篇完型填空里面出现词语同现的很少，但是词语复现不少，就是指某一个词以原词、同根词、同义词、反义词等方式重复出现在语篇中，语篇中的句子通过这种复现关系达到相互衔接。像这篇完型的16题，下文明显出现了treatment，还有26题和27题，这两题关联很大，是相辅相成的。29题是和上文的last winner信息词对应的，都是属于这种类型。
2. 逻辑推理。
逻辑推理是通过对句子间和上下文之间逻辑关系的理解从而推断出正确答案。其中逻辑关系主要包括因果关系、转折关系、对比关系、并列关系等。逻辑推理题需要考生对上下文的理解全面把握，难度较大，考生不能将句子独立开，要注意一个句群，一个段落的整体理解。这篇文章逻辑推理的题较多。如17题，这里表示时间的顺乘；20题主要是上下文的逻辑关系，特别是出现了tough和上文是转折关系；还有33题，抓住关键词skills and talents 和heart，可知这里也是转折关系。

浅谈如何做好完形填空
1.上下文对照，抓关键词。
解完型填空题时，单独看一句话是找不到正确答案的，需要阅读下句或者若干句才能明白。所谓上下对照，即在上文和下文中找到与正确答案相同的关键词。因此，在做题时要边读边在大脑中储存上下文信息的能力，捕捉关键词。比如28小题B考查形容词。A．amazing令人惊讶的；B.boring厌烦的；C.ridiculous荒谬的；D.humorous幽默的。根据第一段最后一个单词，可知此处意思是“你怎么能说它是令人厌烦的呢”？故选B。
2.结合生活，利用常识题解题。
目的考查学生的生活常识，看看学生是否善于观察生活，积累生活常识，能否利用常识去做恰当的选择。比如第29小题A考查名词。A．pictures图画；B.stories故事；C. adventures冒险； D.conversations谈话。句意：它太长，也没有图画。根据文章第一句可知他是一个三年级的孩子，当然喜欢看图画。故选A

One of the easiest things in the world is to become a fault-finder. However, life can be 36 when you are not busy finding fault with it.
Several years ago I 37 a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always 38 by things. People were always doing things that annoyed her, and 39 was ever good enough. She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends. She became a really 40 person.
Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her 41 Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash. What made it almost 42 to deal with was that the day before the 43 , Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her 44 of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to 45 It wasn't until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 46 her habit of finding fault. Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather than to 47 everything so harshly ( 刻薄) . She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her 48 as well.
Perhaps most of us aren't as extreme at fault-finding, 49 when we're honest, we can be sharply 50 of the world. I'm not suggesting you 51 problems, or that you pretend things are 52 than they are, but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are— 53 most of the time, and especially when it's not a really big 54 .
Train yourself to "bite your tongue" , and with a little 55, you'll get really good at letting things go. And when you do, you'll get back your enthusiasm and love for life.

The Fitting-in of Suzy Khan
The first time I saw Suzy Khan, I knew I had to help her. She was really small for her age of 12. The boy in my class often 36 about her and laughed their heads off. She would open a book, pretending to read, with tears dropping on the open page.
All I knew was that she was an orphan (孤儿) from Africa. She had just been adopted by a family in town who 37 that the best way for her to learn American ways of life was to be with American kids. I looked down at this 38 girl and promised myself that somehow I would help her.
But how could I help her 39 in with us? There had to be a 40 .
One day, when I went into the classroom, I saw that Suzy had 41 her geography book to a picture of a train, and in her notebook, she had made a(n) 42 copy.
I was surprised and thought that she could do something in the coming 43 show. So, I took her to see the art teacher, Miss Parker, and showed her what Suzy had 44 . “why, it’s wonderful,” said Miss Parker, who then showed us a poster she had painted 45 the talent show. “I need more of these, but I just don’t have enough 46 . Could you help me, Suzy?”
On the day of the talent show, Suzy’s 47 were everywhere ---- all over the hall and all over the school, each one different.
“And finally,” said Mr Brown, the schoolmaster, at the end of the show, “we have a (n) award. I’m sure you’ve all noticed the wonderful posters.” Everyone nodded. “One of our own students 49 them.”
I could hear everyone whispering. “Who in our school could draw 50 well?”
Mr. Brown waited a while before saying, “ 51 this student worked so hard on the posters, she deserves a 52 ,too. Our mystery(神秘) artist is our new student ---- Suzy Khan!”
Mr. Brown thanked her for all the wonderful posters and gave her a professional artist’s set. “Thank you,” she cried.
I 53 , at that time when I was looking at her excited face, she’d probably never ___54 ___ anything in her whole life.
Everyone started to 55 their hands. Suzy Khan gave them a shy smile and the applause was deafening. I knew then Suzy was going to be all right.

【解析】
【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。本文讲了一个非洲来的儿童Suzy被美国家庭收养，为让孩子了解美国生活，他们把孩子送进学校和美国孩子一起学习。但那些美国孩子却经常嘲笑她。一次偶然的机会，“我”发现了她的绘画才能，并把她介绍给艺术老师。艺术老师也认同她的绘画才能，让她帮自己制作才艺秀的海报。在才艺秀结束的时候，校长颁发给Suzy一个特殊的奖项，同学们也认可和接纳了她。

【小题3】C 考查形容词词义辨析。根据上文叙述，这个女孩比同龄12岁的孩子都要瘦小，所以“我低头看着这个小小的女孩子，下决心无论如何都要帮助她”。rich富有的，proud骄傲的，popular流行的，受欢迎的。显然都不符合语境。tiny =very small。
【小题4】C 考查动词词义辨析和上下文语境。我打算帮助这个女孩与大家融洽相处。文章标题已给出提示。fit in with适合，与…一致。
【小题5】D 考查名词词义辨析。根据上文决定帮助小女孩与大家一致，必须寻找一个办法/方法。manner做事或行为方式, 多指行动的特殊方式或独特的方法，pattern指模式、花样、图案等，choice指选择，way指方式、方法、手段等，可指一般的方法，有时也指个人的方法或方式。因为这里没有谈到什么方法，所以只能用笼统的方法way。
【小题6】C 考查动词词义辨析和语境。Suzy把书打开到火车图片那里。open…to把…翻到，to是介词，表达“到…地方”。其他均不合适。
【小题7】B 考查形容词词义辨析和上下文语境。她对火车图的复制，效果怎样要看文中第44题后的陈述，“why, it’s wonderful”可知，非常好，与此题选项中的perfect相近。
【小题8】D 考查名词词义辨析和上下文语境。根据学@科@网后文第45题后的陈述“the talent show”我们知道这是一个才艺秀。
【小题9】D 考查动词词义辨析和语境。根据上文陈述，Suzy在画火车，所以这里应该是“我”把她画的东西展示给艺术老师看。color意思为涂色和染色, write书写，carve雕刻，draw画。
【小题10】C 考查介词。根据文章内容，这里是老师拿出一张“为才艺秀”做的海报。for意为“为…”。
【小题11】B 考查名词词义辨析和语境。由该空前面“more”和空后的”help”两个词可知，老师还需要更多的海报，但老师“没有足够的时间”，所以才请Suzy帮忙制作。
【小题12】D 考查名词词义辨析和上下文语境。上文已谈到，艺术老师想让Suzy帮忙制作一些海报，所以，才艺秀当天应该到处都能看到Suzy制作的海报。
【小题13】A 考查形容词词义辨析。才艺秀当天大家都表演了，还要颁发一个特殊的奖项给制作海报的人，因为制作海报原本不是才艺秀的内容。
【小题14】A 考查动词词义辨析和上下文。文中这句话的意思说“我们一个学生画了这些海报”，除了draw以外，我们还可以使用paint一词，表示绘画。
【小题15】B 考查副词词义。修饰形容词或副词，表示那么，那样，我们一般用so，也可以用that，二者意思相近。that well=so well。
【小题16】D 考查状语从句的连接词和上下文语境。“因为这位同学如此努力地画了这些海报”，所以值得奖励。since=now that/because。
【小题17】A 考查名词词义辨析和语境。因为努力画了这些海报，这位同学值得奖励。prize奖励， rank等级，秩序，rest休息，place地点，位置。
【小题18】B 考查动词词义辨析。该空描写作者的思想活动，是意识到她从来没有拥有过什么，这些成就和别人的承认第一次让她意识到自己的能力和重要。Reply回答，realize意识到，remember回忆，regret后悔，遗憾。
【小题19】C 考查动词词义辨析。因为是外来的移民，没有融入大家的生活中，这次活动让大家看到了她拥有的东西。
【小题20】A 考查动词词义辨析。因为她画得好，得到校长表扬，才能得到大家认可，所以大家为她鼓掌。clap one’s hands鼓掌。

【文章大意】本文是一篇科幻短篇小说。James今天没作业，他想邀请同学到家里玩，去征求母亲的同意。母亲拒绝，因为母亲的头痛以及父亲的残疾，令母亲觉得James的同学会认为家里挺怪异的，由此James会遭受嘲笑。但聪明的James灵活运用了课堂上学到的机器人科学知识，使父母亲两人都改变了不舒服的境况。因此获得了邀请同学到家玩的许可。

【小题6】A考查形容词词义辨析及语境理解。上文介绍过母亲不同意James的要求是因为担心他同学会认为家里异常而嘲笑他(But I’m just worried other people might think we’re a little… strange.)。这里James反驳说，他认为家里很寻常(We’re just ordinary people。)，一点不古怪。 Strange 奇怪；normal 正常；popular 流行；anxious 焦急。

【小题9】B考查连词词义辨析及语境理解。James 问话的意思是，要是他能使父母亲舒服点，他的请求是否可以满足。该句逗号前后存在逻辑上的条件关系(“_44__ I can make you and Dad feel better, can Brett come over? Please。)As随着； If 如果；Since自从；Before在…之前。
【小题10】C 考查动词词义辨析及语境理解。James跑向厨房，拉开抽屉，找到他所需要的东西。 kept保持；controlled控制；found找到；returned 归还。感觉下文可知他用找到的扳手来修理父母亲身上的故障。
【小题11】C考查名词词义辨析及语境理解。James 找到扳子后，做些修缮和调整，让母亲更舒服点。requests请求；thoughts想法；repairs维修；Instructions 指示，说明，James不仅说了，而且做了，所以此词不符合文意。
【小题12】B 考查名词词义辨析及语境理解。不花几秒钟，James就调整好母亲脖子上的绷带，因此露出了满意的微笑。 sympathy同情心；satisfaction满意； bitterness难过，苦涩； politeness 礼貌。
【小题13】D考查副词词义辨析及语境理解。母亲感觉好多了，并问他是如何做到的。James显然是自豪地回答，那简单！句中的形容词easy说明他很自豪。embarrassedly尴尬地；gratefully感激地；impatiently不耐烦地；proudly 自豪地；
【小题14】A 考查动词词义辨析及语境理解。James找到了母亲不舒服的原因是父亲把螺栓扭得太紧(Dad had tightened your neck bolts (螺栓) too much!)，他只不过调松些。adjusted调整；collected收集，整理；produced生成；covered 覆盖，采访。

【小题18】D考查动词短语词义辨析及语境理解。 grew up成长；长大；lay down放下； broke down出故障，身体垮掉；sat up 坐起来。父亲原先是伏在胳膊上睡，一接通电源，他张开了眼睛，立即坐了起来，说明爸爸的问题好了。
【小题19】C考查名词词义辨析及语境理解。food食物；temperature温度；battery电池； blood 血。接通电源，父亲就没睡意，更舒服了。说明爸爸身体不好可能是因为体内的电池电量不足。
【小题20】D 考查名词词义辨析及语境理解。 James运用自己的聪明才智使得父母亲都感觉舒服了，他的朋友但会接受这确实是不寻常的一家。prove证明；expect期待；suspect怀疑； accept接受。
