【11题详解】
句意:因为他对薪水和工作很满意,所以他决定尽可能努力工作。
happy with对……满意;angry at对……生气;sad about 为……难过;disappointed at对……感到失望。根据后句“the man decided to work as hard as he could.”可推知,应是伐木工对薪水和工作满意。故选A。
【12题详解】
句意:他的老板给了他一把斧头,带他四处走走,告诉他应该在哪里工作。
when当……时候;where哪里;what什么;why为什么。根据空后“by showing him around.”可知,应是想告诉他应该在哪里工作。故选B。
【13题详解】
句意:第三天,尽管他尽了最大的努力,但他最终带回了十棵树。
although尽管;because因为;if如果;so因此。分析前后句句意可知,空处的词是引导让步状语从句,故应用although。故选A。
【14题详解】
句意:第三天,尽管他尽了最大的努力,但他最终带回了十棵树。
twenty二十;eighteen十八;fifteen十五;ten十。根据后句“Day after day, the man could do nothing but cut down fewer and fewer trees.”可知,应是他带回来的树越来越少,第一天是18棵,第二天是15棵,那么此处应是10棵。故选D。
【15题详解】
句意:我一定在失去力量。
mind头脑;way方法;courage勇气;strength力量。根据上句“Day after day, the man could do nothing but cut down fewer and fewer trees.”可知,砍伐的树木越来越少,应是他认为是失去了力量。故选D。
【16题详解】
句意:“你上次磨斧头是什么时候?”他的老板问。
first第一;last最近的;third第三;second第二。根据下文“Sharpen? I…sharpen my axe. I am always busy trying to cut down trees.”语境可知,应是老板询问最近的一次磨斧子是什么时候。故选B。
【17题详解】
句意:我几乎不磨斧头。
often经常;always总是;hardly几乎不;sometimes有时。根据下句“I am always busy trying to cut down trees.”语境可知,应是伐木工只顾着砍树,几乎不磨斧头。故选C。
【18题详解】
句意:在当今世界,似乎每个人都比以往任何时候都忙,但也没有那么快乐。
less happy不太高兴;lazier更懒惰;happier更高兴;more comfortable更舒服。根据下文“Then we ourselves become more upset and worried.”可知,虽然更忙,但是也更不快乐。故选A。
【19题详解】
句意:活动和努力工作两方面都没有问题。
nothing没有事情;something某件事情;anything任何事情;everything每件事情。根据后句“Maybe it is because we forget how to stay “sharp(锋利)”语境可知,应是活动和努力工作两方面都没有问题。故选A。

On Christmas Eve, I gave her a surprise by asking if she would like to go to a candlelight service at church that night.
Instead of taking her to my church, I took her to her old neighborhood church where all her friends were. We got there early and I got her a seat where her friends could see her as they came in. Then soon some of her friends came to the church and they rushed over to greet her and sit with her.

I work in a nursing home and my job is to take care of the elderly.
This year, a very sweet old lady that I cared for, Alice, had a difficult time. She got dementia and so she had been in the hospital twice. In November I was finally able to get her back to her “home”.
Alice thought her daughter was coming to visit her on Christmas day and that they were going to have the whole family together like the old days. When she finally realized (意识) that that happy moment was not going to happen, she was very sad. Knowing that her daughter was coming after Christmas was not enough to make her feel happy, I hated the idea of her being alone on the holiday!
On Christmas Eve, I gave her a surprise by asking if she would like to go to a candlelight service at church that night.
Instead of taking her to my church, I took her to her old neighborhood church where all her friends were. We got there early and I got her a seat where her friends could see her as they came in. Then soon some of her friends came to the church and they rushed over to greet her and sit with her.

I asked my dad if I’d ever made him cry before because I couldn’t remember ever seeing him cry.
“There was once,” he said.
He told me that when I was 1 year old, he put a pen, a piece of paper money, and a toy in front of me. He wanted to see which one I would pick. It’s a tradition that a lot of Chinese people do when their kids are 1 year old. According to this tradition (传统), it shows what the kid will value (重视) most when they grow up. For example, if the kid takes the pen, it means he or she will be a smart person in the future. If the kid takes the money, it means he or she will value money more than others and will become rich. If the kid takes the toy, it means he or she will like fun things and play a lot.
My father was just doing it out of curiosity (好奇). It was interesting for him to see which one I’d pick anyway.
He said that I just sat there and stared at the three things. He sat across from me and waited to see the result.
According to him, I moved toward him and he held his breath. Then I pushed everything aside and went right into his arms. He didn’t realize that he was one of the choices. And that was the first and only time I made him cry.
28. According to the tradition, if a child chooses the paper money, it means that he will be ________.
A. a smart person B. a cute person C. a rich person D. a lazy person
29. What did the child choose at last?
A. A piece of paper money. B. A pen. C. A toy. D. The father.

Liu felt strange. After the performance she asked the woman if she had read the novel. The woman said, _____33_____ But the music touched me very much when you played it with your Chinese musical instruments(乐器).
