Beauty: I’ll tell the police what you’ve just done to me. Scott: If you do, I’ll tell them what you were doing to your dog. ____21____ Beauty: Three hundred dollars. Scott: ____22____ Beauty: He’s a good sled dog. His name is White Fang.____23____ Scott: I’ll give you a hundred and fifty dollars for him. Beauty: ____24____ Scott: It’s all you are going to get. (He throws the money at Beauty then turns to Matt.) Come on, Matt. Bring the dog. ____25____ A. That’s not enough. B. He’ll guide the others. C. That’s too much. D. How much do you want for him? E. We’ve nothing more to say to this man. 【答案】21. D 22. C 23. B 24. A 25. E 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了Scott与Beauty围绕White Fang这只雪橇犬展开的对话，从Beauty威胁报警，到Scott反威胁揭发其虐狗行为，再到双方就狗的交易价格进行博弈，最终Scott 买下White Fang并离开。 【21题详解】 Scott反威胁Beauty要揭发他虐待狗的行为后，Beauty的回应是报出价格，因此Scott 的问句应开启交易话题，询问狗的价格，D选项“How much do you want for him?”衔接下文。 【22题详解】 Beauty报出300美元的价格后，Scott需要对价格做出直接反应，推动对话向“砍价 / 介绍狗的价值”发展。C选项“That’s too much.”（太贵了）是买家面对报价的自然反应，既表达了对价格的不满，也为下文Beauty介绍White Fang的价值埋下伏笔，逻辑衔接自然。 【23题详解】 Beauty介绍完White Fang是一只好雪橇犬并说出它的名字后，需要补充说明这只狗的优势，B选项“He’ll guide the others.”直接补充了它作为领头雪橇犬的能力，与上文“He’s a good sled dog.”形成完整介绍。 【24题详解】 Scott提出以150美元买下White Fang后，Beauty作为卖家会对砍价做出回应，A选项“That’s not enough.”直接表达了对价格的不满，符合交易对话的逻辑。 【25题详解】 Scott强硬表示这是他能给出的最高价格，并让Matt牵走狗后，需要一句收尾的台词表达不想再纠缠，E选项“We’ve nothing more to say to this man.”既符合Scott的态度，也自然收束了对话。 三、 完形填空 通读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各小题所给的 A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出一个最佳答案。 It was the district sports meet.

In the English language, there are many expressions using the word “mouth”. But some of them are not so nice. Sometimes, people say something to a friend or a family member. Later they regret because it hurts that person’s feelings. Or they tell the person something they didn’t mean to tell. The speaker might say: “I really put my foot in my mouth this time.” Sometimes when one person is speaking, he says the same thing that his friend is going to say. When this happens, the friend might say: “You took the words right out of my mouth!” Sometimes a person has a bad or sad experience with another person. He might say that experience “left a bad taste in my mouth.” Or the person possibly has a very frightening(可怕的）experience, like having an angry dog running after him. He might say: “I had my heart in my mouth.” Some people have lots of money because they were born into a very rich family. You might say the person “was born with a silver spoon (银勺) in his mouth”. He is the opposite of a person living from “hand to mouth”. This person is very poor and only has enough money for the most important things in life, like food. 44. The underlined word “regret” may mean __________. A. feel sorry B. feel excited C. feel proud D. feel surprised 45. When a man says “I had my heart in my mouth”, usually he means he was _________. A. excited B. afraid C. surprised D. happy 46. Which of the following might be the best title for this passage? A. Different Uses of Mouth B. People and Their Mouths C. Expressions about Mouth D. The Importance of Mouth 【答案】44. A 45. B 46. C 【解析】 【分析】短文主要介绍关于“mouth”的不同表达。 【44题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“because it hurts that person’s feelings”可知，说过伤害他人感受的话会感到懊悔、过意不去。所以，regret意为“懊悔，过意不去”。故选A。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Or the person possibly has a very frightening(可怕的）experience, like having an angry dog running after him.”可知，当一个人遭遇了可怕的事情，他可能会说：“I had my heart in my mouth.”，这意味着他感到害怕。故选B。 【46题详解】 最佳标题。根据“In the English language, there are many expressions using the word ‘mouth’.”可知，短文主要介绍了关于mouth的不同表达。故选C。 C The Marches were a happy family. Poverty, hard work, and even the fact that Father March was away with the Union armies could not down the spirits of Meg, Jo, Beth, Amy, and Merimee, as the March girls called their mother. The March sisters tried to be good but had their share of faults. Pretty Meg was often displeased with the schoolchildren she taught; boyish Jo was easy to become angry; golden-haired schoolgirl Amy liked to show off;but Beth, who kept the house, was loving and gentle always. The happy days passed and darkness came when a telegram arrived for Mrs. March. ”Your husband is very ill,“ it said, ”come at once.“ The girls tried to be brave when their mother left for the front. They waited and prayed. Little Beth got scarlet fever (猩红热) when she was taking care of a sick neighbor. She became very ill but began to recover by the time Merimee was back. When Father came home from the front and at that joyful Christmas dinner they were once more all together. Three years later the March girls had grown into young womanhood. Meg became Mrs. Brooke, and after a few family troubles got used to her new state happily. Jo had found pleasure in her literary efforts. Amy had grown into a young lady with a talent for design and an even greater one for society. But Beth had never fully regained her health, and her family watched her with love and anxiety. Amy was asked to go and stay in Europe with a relative of the Mareches’. Jo went to New York and became successful in her writing and had the satisfaction of seeing her work published there. But at home the bitterest blow was yet to fall. Beth had known for some time that she couldn’t live much longer to be with her family, and in the springtime she died. News came from Europe that Amy and Laurie, the grandson of a wealthy neighbor, had planned to be married soon. Now Jo became even more successful in her writing and got married to Professor Bhaer, and soon afterwards founded a school for boys. And so the little women had grown up and lived happily with their children, enjoying the harvest of love and goodness that they had devoted all their lives to. 47. The members of the March family were ________. A. Father March, Mrs March and their four daughters B. Father March, Mrs March and their five daughters C. son and four daughters D. son and five daughters 48. Who was the most successful in career (事业) among the March girls? A. Jo. B. Beth. C. Amy. D.

Because 61. including 62. losing 63. successfully 64. and 65. to help 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲了作者成为盐城博物馆志愿者讲解员，这段经历让自己收获颇丰，还能助人了解盐城。 【56题详解】 句意：它们也是中小学生重要的教室。根据“important classroom”可知，这里表示泛指“一间重要的教室”，且“important”是以元音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词“an”。故填an。 【57题详解】 句意：节假日期间，一群年轻的博物馆讲解员在盐城博物馆各处被看到。分析句子可知，“groups of young museum guides”和“see”之间是被动关系，即“讲解员被看到”，且句子描述的是一般情况，所以用一般现在时的被动语态，其结构是“am/is/are + 过去分词”，主语“groups of young museum guides”是复数，be动词用are，see的过去分词是seen。故填are seen。 【58题详解】 句意：自2011年以来，盐城博物馆已经为志愿者讲解员开展了100多个公共培训活动。根据“Since 2011”可知，句子时态要用现在完成时，其结构是“have/has + 过去分词”，主语“Yancheng Museum”是第三人称单数，助动词用has，carry的过去分词是carried。故填has carried。 【59题详解】 句意：2021年7月，我被选为盐城博物馆的一名志愿者讲解员。根据“choose sb. to be...”表示“选择某人成为……”，这里“I”和“choose”之间是被动关系，即“我被选为”，所以用“to be”。故填to be。 【60题详解】 句意：因为这是我第一次在那里服务，我不知道该做什么。“it was my first time to serve (服务) there”是“I didn’t know what to do”的原因，所以用连词“Because”引导原因状语从句，句首单词首字母大写。故填Because。 【61题详解】 句意：幸运的是，那里的老师上了很多有趣的培训课，包括“公共场所和礼仪”、“红色历史和红色文化”等等。“Public Places and Manners”，“Red History and Red Culture”等都属于前面提到的“interesting training classes”，所以用“including”表示“包括”。故填including。 【62题详解】 句意：我被像瞿秋白和张太雷这样的先驱者的故事深深打动，他们冒着失去生命的风险去创建新中国。“risk doing sth.”表示“冒险做某事”，所以用“lose”的动名词形式“losing”。故填losing。 【63题详解】 句意：在接下来的一个月里，我引导了数百名游客，并且出色地完成了我的工作。分析句子可知，空处需要一个副词来修饰动词“did”，“success”的副词形式是“successfully”，表示“出色地，成功地”。故填successfully。 【64题详解】 句意：我对我的家乡和生命的意义有了更多的了解。“my hometown”和“the meaning of life”是并列关系，所以用连词“and”。故填and。 【65题详解】 句意：我为成为一名志愿者讲解员而感到自豪，因为这样可以帮助更多的人了解盐城。根据“I feel proud of being a volunteer guide”以及“more people learn about Yancheng”可知，成为志愿者讲解员的目的是帮助更多人了解盐城，所以用动词不定式“to help”作目的状语。故填to help。 (二) 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，使短文意思完整。 Nick Vujicic was b____66____ without arms and legs, in1982 in the city of Melbourne, Australia.

And Western hosts sometimes look rude in the eyes of Chinese guests. It is because the guest-host relationship (关系) in China is quite different from that in some western countries. In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese friend’s home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to (根据) the host’s way of doing things is usual behaviour for a guest. My wife’s mother, a very kind Chinese lady, doesn’t smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their houses. At the very least, you should ask “Is it OK if I smoke?” But don’t be surprised if they say, “No, you can’t smoke.” In my culture, if you smoke in their houses, you are a bad guest, but if they don’t allow you to smoke in their houses, they are not rude hosts. In a word, no matter where you are, the best way to be a good guest is to adapt to (适应) the local customs. Just as the saying goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” 76. To many foreigners, who are the best hosts and the worst guests in the world? _____________________________________________ 77. What is usual behaviour for a guest in the west? _____________________________________________ 78. How does the writer feel when he sees some guests smoking in his wife’s mother’s home? _____________________________________________ 79. If a guest wants to smoke in an American host’s home, what question should he ask? _____________________________________________ 80. What do you think is impolite for a guest to do? (Please write your own sentence to answer) _____________________________________________ 【答案】76. The Chinese. 77. Acting according to the host’s way. 78. He feels unhappy. 79. Is it OK if I smoke? 80. Smoke in a non-smoking host’s home. 【解析】 【导语】本文通过对比中西方对待客之道的差异，指出中国人待客热情如待“神”，而西方更强调客人尊重主人习惯。作者提醒人们应入乡随俗，才能成为好客人。 【76题详解】 根据第一段“In the eyes of many foreigners, the Chinese are the best hosts and the worst guests in the world.”可知，在许多外国人眼中，中国人是世界上最好的主人，也是世界上最差的客人。故填The Chinese. 【77题详解】 根据第二段“Acting according to the host’s way of doing things is usual behaviour for a guest.”可知，按照主人的方式行事是客人通常的行为。故填Acting according to the host’s way. 【78题详解】 根据第三段“My wife’s mother, a very kind Chinese lady, doesn’t smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker I feel unhappy.” 可知，作者的岳母是一位非常善良的中国女士，她不抽烟，所以当作者看到她的一些客人在她的房子里吸烟时，作为一个不吸烟的人，他感到不高兴。故填He feels unhappy. 【79题详解】 根据第四段“you should ask ‘Is it OK if I smoke?’”可知，如果客人想在美国主人家里抽烟，他应该询问“我可以抽烟吗”。故填Is it OK if I smoke? 【80题详解】 通读全文，本文通过对比中西方对待客之道的差异，指出中国人待客热情如待“神”，而西方更强调客人尊重主人习惯。作者提醒人们应入乡随俗，才能成为好客人，则关于“你认为客人做什么是不礼貌的”的这个问题的回答可表达为“在不吸烟的主人家吸烟(是不礼貌的)”。故填Smoke in a non-smoking host’s home.

B People use their mouths for many things. In the English language, there are many expressions using the word “mouth”. But some of them are not so nice. Sometimes, people say something to a friend or a family member. Later they regret because it hurts that person’s feelings. Or they tell the person something they didn’t mean to tell. The speaker might say: “I really put my foot in my mouth this time.” Sometimes when one person is speaking, he says the same thing that his friend is going to say. When this happens, the friend might say: “You took the words right out of my mouth!” Sometimes a person has a bad or sad experience with another person. He might say that experience “left a bad taste in my mouth.” Or the person possibly has a very frightening(可怕的）experience, like having an angry dog running after him. He might say: “I had my heart in my mouth.” Some people have lots of money because they were born into a very rich family. You might say the person “was born with a silver spoon (银勺) in his mouth”. He is the opposite of a person living from “hand to mouth”. This person is very poor and only has enough money for the most important things in life, like food. 44. The underlined word “regret” may mean __________. A. feel sorry B. feel excited C. feel proud D. feel surprised 45. When a man says “I had my heart in my mouth”, usually he means he was _________. A. excited B. afraid C. surprised D. happy 46. Which of the following might be the best title for this passage? A. Different Uses of Mouth B. People and Their Mouths C. Expressions about Mouth D. The Importance of Mouth C The Marches were a happy family. Poverty, hard work, and even the fact that Father March was away with the Union armies could not down the spirits of Meg, Jo, Beth, Amy, and Merimee, as the March girls called their mother. The March sisters tried to be good but had their share of faults. Pretty Meg was often displeased with the schoolchildren she taught; boyish Jo was easy to become angry; golden-haired schoolgirl Amy liked to show off;but Beth, who kept the house, was loving and gentle always. The happy days passed and darkness came when a telegram arrived for Mrs. March. ”Your husband is very ill,“ it said, ”come at once.“ The girls tried to be brave when their mother left for the front. They waited and prayed. Little Beth got scarlet fever (猩红热) when she was taking care of a sick neighbor. She became very ill but began to recover by the time Merimee was back. When Father came home from the front and at that joyful Christmas dinner they were once more all together. Three years later the March girls had grown into young womanhood. Meg became Mrs. Brooke, and after a few family troubles got used to her new state happily. Jo had found pleasure in her literary efforts. Amy had grown into a young lady with a talent for design and an even greater one for society. But Beth had never fully regained her health, and her family watched her with love and anxiety. Amy was asked to go and stay in Europe with a relative of the Mareches’. Jo went to New York and became successful in her writing and had the satisfaction of seeing her work published there. But at home the bitterest blow was yet to fall. Beth had known for some time that she couldn’t live much longer to be with her family, and in the springtime she died. News came from Europe that Amy and Laurie, the grandson of a wealthy neighbor, had planned to be married soon. Now Jo became even more successful in her writing and got married to Professor Bhaer, and soon afterwards founded a school for boys. And so the little women had grown up and lived happily with their children, enjoying the harvest of love and goodness that they had devoted all their lives to. 47.

And Western hosts sometimes look rude in the eyes of Chinese guests. It is because the guest-host relationship (关系) in China is quite different from that in some western countries. In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese friend’s home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to (根据) the host’s way of doing things is usual behaviour for a guest. My wife’s mother, a very kind Chinese lady, doesn’t smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their houses. At the very least, you should ask “Is it OK if I smoke?” But don’t be surprised if they say, “No, you can’t smoke.” In my culture, if you smoke in their houses, you are a bad guest, but if they don’t allow you to smoke in their houses, they are not rude hosts. In a word, no matter where you are, the best way to be a good guest is to adapt to (适应) the local customs. Just as the saying goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” 76. To many foreigners, who are the best hosts and the worst guests in the world? _____________________________________________ 77. What is usual behaviour for a guest in the west? _____________________________________________ 78.
