【解析】

試題分析:本文是一篇記敘文,在文中講述了作者的祖母。祖母是一位勤勞,開朗而且勇敢的人。在她80多歲不幸摔傷后,家人不得不把她送入養(yǎng)老院,在那里大家快樂地為她度過了90歲生日。在那之后祖母的癡呆變得越來越嚴(yán)重,作者感到雖然祖母有時(shí)候不記得家人,但是她的精神中一直有愛存在。

1.】as。考查介詞。表示“作為”,用介詞as。此處表示的意思是“當(dāng)我還是個孩子的時(shí)候 ”。

2.】what?疾橘e語從句。介詞后面跟賓語從句,從句中缺少threw的賓語,填what。

3.】was forced?疾楸粍诱Z態(tài)。根據(jù)句意,“父親被迫承認(rèn)不能再在家照顧奶奶了”,用被動語態(tài)。

4.】 that?疾閺(qiáng)調(diào)句式,即“it is/was+被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分+that+其它”。本句被強(qiáng)調(diào)的是狀語with a heavy heart。

5.】for?疾榻樵~。本句中,定語從句we all had her用來修飾先行詞love,將這個定語從句還原為簡單句,則為we all had love her。表示“愛某人”,為have love for sb.,所以填介詞for。

6.】toughest。考查形容詞。根據(jù)空格前的定冠詞以及后面表示范圍的短語of all,可知用形容詞最高級形式。

7.】who?疾橘e語從句。根據(jù)句意,“奶奶不知道我是誰”,用who引導(dǎo)賓語從句。

8.】me。考查代詞。從語境可知此處是指作者,因作賓語,用人稱代詞賓格形式。

9.】holding?疾榉侵^語動詞。從結(jié)構(gòu)判斷此處是非謂語短語作后置定語,表示主動關(guān)系,用現(xiàn)在分詞。

10.】peacefully?疾楦痹~。修飾謂語動詞went,用副詞形式作狀語,所以要在名詞peace加后綴-ful構(gòu)成形容詞peaceful,再加后綴-ly構(gòu)成副詞peacefully。

This is the season for giving. Looking to get in touch with your generous side? Learn these four habits of truly thoughtful gift givers.

1. 1.

Considerate gift giving is as much about planning as it is about how well you know the person. Take time to think about his or her personality and interests to figure out how he or she will get the most value.

2. They don’t focus on cost.

The practice of thoughtful giving offers a wealth of benefits, but that doesn’t mean givers should focus on expensive gifts. 2. It seems that having more cash could actually reduce compassion(同情). And isn’t compassion what this time of year is all about? So don’t take it too hard if you don’t have a lot to spend. 3.

3. They make gifts personal.

Gifting is an opportunity to let a person know how much you appreciate and love him, and show how well you know him. 4. Book a massage (按摩), take them to a wine tasting event, or get a couple of tickets to a concert or show. If you’re buying for a parent, taking their kids for an evening could be the best gift of all.

4. They think about the presentation.

5. See what you have around your house to customize (自定義) packaging. You can use pretty towels to cover something like a bottle of wine. You can also tie on a decoration that fits the theme of your gift.

A. They plan ahead.

B. Instead, get creative.

C. They enjoy giving more than receiving.

D. In fact, thoughtful gift givers don’t concentrate on the cost of presents.

E. Thoughtful gift givers pay attention to detail, including how their gifts are packaged.

F. Make a list of your ideas ahead of time to make sure you find the perfect fit for everyone.

G. If you’re buying for someone who seems to have everything, consider gifting an experience.

科目:高中英語 來源:2014-2015學(xué)年廣東茂名高三第一次模擬考試英語試卷(解析版) 題型:信息匹配

閱讀下列應(yīng)用文及相關(guān)信息,并按照要求匹配信息, 請?jiān)诖痤}卡上將對應(yīng)題號的相應(yīng)選項(xiàng)字母涂黑。

首先請閱讀下列圖片及文字說明:

A. Drop-Bar Road Bikes

Generally lighter in weight than the typical mountain or comfort bike, road bikes are good for multiple pavement uses including fitness riding, commuting, long-distance/event rides, touring and racing.

Drop-bar handlebars are lightweight and aerodynamic and are a better choice if you want to go faster or are more concerned with efficiently transferring your energy into making the bike move forward. They also allow for a greater number of riding and hand positions than flat-bars. Their more aerodynamic riding position (bent over at the waist) may put more strain on your back if you are less flexible.

B. Flat-Bar Road Bikes

Flat-bar handlebars combine the efficiency of drop-bar road bikes with a slightly more upright riding position. This allows you to sit up in a higher and more relaxed position so you can better see the road and potential risks. An upright position also reduces strain on your hands, wrists and shoulders. This increased versatility comes with the tradeoff of being slightly less efficient (from an aerodynamic standpoint) than the typical drop-bar road bike.

C. Hardtail Mountain Bikes

Mountain Bikes are best for dirt or rocky trails and gravel roads; they are OK for pavement too (with tire change).

Hardtail bikes feature a front suspension fork and a rigid back with no rear suspension shocks. This type of mountain bike is much less expensive and lighter in weight than a typical full-suspension mountain bike. A hardtail is the more versatile choice if you plan to use it for both paved and unpaved surfaces. The tradeoffs from a full-suspension mountain bike? A hardtail is less able to safely handle more technical singletrack trails, provides less overall shock absorption and, in some situations, delivers less rear wheel traction.

D. Full-Suspension Mountain Bikes

Full-suspension mountain bikes have both front and rear suspension shocks making them ideal for backcountry trails or technical (steep, bumpy, twisty) singletrack. They also stand up to more aggressive riding including jumps or drops of up to 5 feet. As mentioned above, full-suspension bikes are more expensive and generally heavier than hardtail bikes.

E. Folding bikes

These bikes can be folded up and placed in a carrying bag, which makes them handy for commuters with limited storage space at home or the office. They are lightweight yet strong and can be folded up quickly and easily. Folding bikes are also a good choice for those who want to travel with their bike.

F. Electric-assist bikes

These bikes feature a battery-powered motor that can help you climb hills easily or make your commute less strenuous. Built-in sensors can monitor how much pressure you're putting on the pedals and then apply battery power accordingly.

以下是一些用戶信息,請把圖片與相關(guān)介紹匹配起來。

1. Tom is a bike lover. He wants to buy a road bike that can go fast on the road. Speed is important but it is more important for him to see the road and stay safe, since the road on which he rides is often full of traffic.

2. Jack is an office worker. Every day he goes to work by subway. There is still a long way from where he lives to the subway station, so he decides to buy a bike, which can be easily put at home, on the subway train and his office.

3. Peter loves making long-distance journey by bike. When travelling, he has to climb hills or ride on rocky trails, which makes him too tired to go. He wants to continue his journey even when he is tired, but he doesn’t want to travel by car or ride his motorbike.

4. Mark is a bike enthusiast who often rides in the mountainous areas. Unfortunately, his bike was damaged when he was riding on the mountain. Now he is going to buy a new mountain bike. Being a rich man, Mark doesn’t care about the price of the bike, but it must be tough and flexible enough to jump and drop on the mountain road.

5. Jim needs a new mountain bike that can be ridden on both paved and unpaved surfaces. It doesn’t need to be too expensive. He hopes to buy a bike that is lighter in weight than a typical full-suspension mountain bike

Having returned from her round trip, the angry woman stood outside the ticket office. "The railway owes me $12, " she said to Harry Jenks, the young man working at the office. "You sold me a ticket for May 22nd, but there was no ship from Jersey that night. So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me $12. “

Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. "Come into the office, Madam, "he said politely. "I'll check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd."

The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd. How could he have made such a careless mistake? He shouldn't have sold her a ticket for that day. Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child. "You look sunburnt, "he said to her. "Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?"

"Yes", she answered, shyly. "The beach was lovely. And I can swim too!"

"That's fine, "said Harry. "My little girl can't swim a bit yet. Of course, she's only three”

"I'm four, "the child said proudly. "I'll be four and a half. "

Harry turned to the mother." I remember your ticket, Madam, "he said. "But you didn't get one for your daughter, did you?"

"Er, well", "the woman looked at the child." I mean … she hasn't started school yet. She's only four. "

"A four-year-old child must have a ticket, Madam. A child's return ticket to Jersey costs' "let me see … $ 13. 5. So if the railway pays your hotel, you will owe $1. 5. The law is law, but since the fault (過錯) was mine…".
