[答案]
这是一篇介绍西方传统节日--父亲节的文章。父亲节起源于美国。一位女子在母亲节那天听传教时,突然产生了应该有一个父亲节的想法。在母亲去世后,她的父亲一直没有再婚,独自一人把六个孩子抚养成人。这在她父亲那个时代是一件罕见的事情,所以她认为父亲也是伟大的,应该创建一个父亲节。这个传统节日就这样诞生了。
1.C。因为两个句子间是并列关系,介绍的是此庆祝活动的发源地和引发原因,所以应该用并列连词and。
2.A。本题最容易误选D。表示人死了可用die或pass away,而die away表示“渐弱(以至于察觉不到),消失”。
3.B。句意:他没有再婚,独自一人养育六个孩子……“抚养/养育(子女)”常用raise或bring up。A项缺副词up;feed表示给人或动物喂食;educate表示“教育”。
4.D。which引导的非限制性定语从句意为:这在那个时代毫无疑问是件罕见的事情。unnatural“不自然的”;unfair“不公平的”;untrue“不真实的”;unusual“罕见的,不寻常的”。
5.A。句子的大意为:Sonora Dodd长大成人后,意识到了父亲为他的孩子们作出的牺牲。realize有“意识到”的意思。notice表示无意中注意到;find表示发现;hear指亲耳听见。
6.D。从第二段可知这位父亲独自一人抚养大了六个孩子,所以此处应该是父亲为他的孩子们作出的牺牲。
7.B。从后边的sermon(传教)一词可知,她当时是在教堂里,不可能是在学校、家里或上班。
8.C。从后边的“她认为也应该有个父亲节”可知,她产生此想法是在母亲节那天听传教的时候。
9.B。在这个女儿看来,有母亲节,理所当然也应该有父亲节。在肯定句中表示“也”时,若放在行为动词前,助动词、系动词、情态动词后,常用also。too和as well常放在句末,too前可加上逗号,as well前一般不加标点。still“仍然”。
10.C。节日是一种文化传统,所以宜用tradition来代替父亲节。attraction“吸引人的人或事物”;position“职位,位置”;congratulation“祝贺”。
11.D。and后句子的大意为:二十世纪七十年代以来,父亲节一直被正式地庆祝。officially“正式地”;specially“专程地,特地”;especially“尤其是,特别是”;greatly“大大地”。
12.A。such后的从句可由as或that引导。后边句子中不缺成分时,用that引导结果状语从句;后边句子缺成分时,用as引导限制性定语从句,此句中Mother’s Day is缺表语,所以选A。
13.B。句意:父亲节不像母亲节那样是一个大的商业活动,很可能是因为它存在的时间没有那么长。be in existence“存在着”;be in use“在使用着”;be in effect“(法律等)有效”;be in power“(政党等)当权/执政”。
14.D。表示信息、电报、信件、布告牌等上边写着的内容时,常用saying或reading作后置定语。若带双宾语时,也可用telling sb. sth.结构作后置定语;若用write时,常用on which were written...这一结构。
15.A。句意:对父亲们来说受欢迎的礼物是领带、巧克力、袜子等,因为这些东西他们即使不想要也总是能够用得上。popular“受欢迎的,流行的”;regular“规则的,定时的”;normal“正常的,常规的”;moral“道德的,道义的”。
16.D。从后边的“即使他们不想要这样的东西”这一信息可判断出,前边用“总是可以用得上”最为合理。若为其他三个选项,那么这些东西就不会是“受欢迎的”礼物了。
17.B。根据后边的定语从句we can buy中的人称we可判断出,giving的宾语应该为us。
18.C。此with加复合宾语结构的意思为:上边写着“世界上最伟大的父亲”的字样。write表示“写”;place, put和lay都表示“放”。
19.B。下一句中“British people might give their Dad a bit of a rest”暗示此处用might最为恰当。might“有可能”;must“必定”;can“有可能”;should“应该”。
20.A。make tea为固定表达法,意为“沏茶”。cook常用于做饭;boil常用于用水煮食物;steam多用于用蒸汽弄熟食物。
15.A
14.D。句中缺少谓语动词,故排除A和C。depend on“取决于”,符合题意。
13.C。make a discovery“有了新发现”;be of great importance相当于be very important。
12.A。本题考查强调句型。被强调部分是because the water had risen。
11.A。conditions(pl.)“条件,环境”;experience作“经历”讲时是可数名词,作“经验”讲时是不可数名词。
