本文为记叙文。故事发生在1989年美国大地震中,一个父亲靠一个诺言救出了被困在废墟下长达38个小时的儿子。

16.B only to do sth表示“结果却,不料”,作结果状语,表示该结果在主语的预料之外。

17. A 这四个选项都是英语习语,根据本段第一句an 8.2 earthquake almost flattened America判断,选择A项。

18.D 句意:……他想起了他曾对儿子许下的诺言……memorize是“背诵,熟记”的意思,不合题意。

19.A 从结构上分析,该句是省略了谓语动词的省略句,省略谓语之后,意义仍然清楚;如不省略动词,则谓语使用第三人称单数happens。从意义上分析,可排除C、D两项。

20.A 这几个动词都可以表示“流泪”这个意义,但句式搭配不同,其表现形式分别为Tears fill his eyes. Tears come into his eyes. He bursts into tears.

21.B 句意:他不停地想着他对儿子许下的诺言。

22.B dig掘(土),挖;dig through在……里挖掘;dig out 发掘出;dig into 钻研。由句意可知选B。

23.D 从结构上分析,应该用现在分词作伴随状语。

24.C come on表示劝说、鼓励,意为“振作点”。

25.D one line意为“一句话(台词)”。A项中的one word干扰性较大,它表示“一个词”。

26.A for oneself为自己;by oneself单独地,独自;of oneself自行地,自动地;to oneself独享,独自拥有。

27.C alive作表语,其含义与dead相对应。

28.D pull back意为“使后退”,这里指把一块大石头推开。

29.B 注意这四个词的区别:sound (各种)声音;voice (人们说话的)嗓音;noise (不悦耳的)噪音;tone (人们说话的)语气,语调。

30.B 这是表示将来的虚拟语气,主句中用“would+动词原形”,从下文中也能找到类似的句子。

31.A 句意: 你来救我时,他们也会得救。

32.C 此题包含一个固定句型:There are…left 还有……剩余下来。

33.D 句意:房屋倒塌时,形成了三角空隙。而make room与 make space 意为“(有意识地)为……腾出空间”。

34.C come out出来。

35.A 从上下文意义判断,此句为原因状语从句。

In 1989 an 8.2 earthquake almost flattened America, killing over 30,000 people in less than four minutes. A father rushed to the school where his son was supposed to be, only to discover that the building was as flat as a pancake.
After the shock, he remembered the promise he had made to his son: “No matter what happened, I’ll always be there for you!” And tears began to fill his eyes. As he looked at the pile of ruins that once was the school, it looked hopeless, but he kept remembering his promise to his son.
Remembering his son’s classroom would be in the back right corner of the building, he rushed there and started digging.
Other parents tried to pull him off the ruins, saying: “It’s too late! They’re all dead! You can’t help!” He replied, “Are you going to help me now?” The fire chief showed up and tried to pull him off the school’s ruins saying, “Fires are breaking out, explosions are happening everywhere. You’re in danger. We’ll take care of it. Go home.” This loving, caring American father asked, “Are you going to help me now?”
The police came and said, “You’re, anxious and it’s over. Go home. We’ll handle it!” He replied, “Are you going to help me now?” No one helped.
Courageously he went on alone. He dug for eight hours...12 hours...24 hours...36 hours...then, in the 38th hour, he heard his son’s voice. He screamed his son’s name, “ARMAND!” He heard back, “Dad! It’s me, Dad! You promised no matter what happened, you would always be there for me! You did it, Dad!” “What’s going on in there? How is it?” the father asked.
“There are 14 of us left out of 33, Dad. ”
“Come out, boy!”
“No, Dad! Let the other kids out first, because I know you’ll get me! No matter what happens, I know you’ll always be there for me!”
【小题1】Why did the father keep digging?

A.Because he promised his wife he would take care of their son.
B.Because others persuaded him to do so.
C.Because he promised his son that he would be with him whatever happened.
D.Because his son was his only child.
【小题2】Many people came up and tried to persuade the father to stop digging except ______.
A.the policeB.the fire chief
