Ⅰ.阅读理解
When I was a little girl, I remembered that when my dad was repairing something, he would ask me to hold the hammer, so we would have time for a conversation with each other. I never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family.
I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning. And when I bought a house several years later, my dad painted it by himself in the fierce summer heat. All he asked was to talk to him, but I was too busy in those days.
Four years ago, my dad visited me. He spent many hours putting together a swing for my daughter. He asked me to have a talk with him, but I had to prepare for a trip that weekend.
One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had forgotten some things that we discussed lately. I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Several hours later that day I received a call. My father was in hospital. Immediately I bought a plane ticket and on my way I was thinking about all the occasions I missed to have a talk with my dad. By the time I arrived at the hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was he who did not have time for a conversation with me. I realized how little I knew about my dad, his deepest thoughts and his dreams.
After his death I learned much more about him and even more about myself. All he ever wanted was my time. And now he has all my attention every single day.

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了一名中学生王培韩(音译)和他的同学们把舞台剧表演和英语学习结合在一起,在练习英语的同时,领略不同文化之美的故事。
1.答案与解析:a 句意为:王培韩是云南中学的一名学生,他在戏剧《李尔王》中扮演了一个角色。student在文中第一次出现,表示泛指,应用不定冠词限定。故填a。
2.答案与解析:was given 句意见上一题解析。设空处为句子的谓语,give与主语Wang Peihan之间是被动关系,而且描述的是过去的事情,所以应用一般过去时的被动语态,故填was given。
3.答案与解析:carefully 句意为:这个小男孩认真地反复观看了2008年电影版的《李尔王》,这使得他成为这部经典佳作的“专家”。设空处修饰动词watched,应用副词。故填carefully。

7.答案与解析:lost 句意为:王培韩解释说:“不要迷失在著名的影片中,这一点是很重要的。我们自己写了一些台词。使用我们自己的语言技巧既是一个挑战也是一种鼓励。”be lost in为固定搭配,意为“沉浸于;全神贯注于”。故填lost。
8.答案与解析:ourselves 句意见上一题解析。此处表示“我们自己”,应用反身代词,故填ourselves。
9.答案与解析:to use 句意见第7题解析。该句中It是形式主语,动词不定式短语作真正的主语,故填to use。
10.答案与解析:practising 句意为:通过用英语表演,学生们不仅开心地练习了英语,也深入领略了不同文化之美。have fun doing sth.为固定搭配,意为“做某事很开心”,故填practising。
