Question

When our children were younger, it was popular for city people to buy a small farm in the country and       a few animals there.

One of our new neighbors        ducks. They seemed very lovely; however, they were       to run around in their yard and the neighbors’ yards—      ours. Our vegetables were their favorite food. Often we would “shoo” the ducks home and want to know_      there wasn’t a fence to keep them.

One day, I asked her if she      her ducks were bringing trouble to my garden. She told me that they were her   _   and he was away traveling. My attitude （態(tài)度） to her was bad. We realized that our neighbors were not planning to build a        , so our son built one .The ducks now stayed in their own yard. I didn’t see my neighbor again       months later.

A women’s church group asked me to       at their mother and daughter party. The topic was “Love”. Much to my       ，the first woman I saw when I walked into the church was my neighbor. I knew I could not speak about love to them when I hadn’t been     __ my neighbor. So I walk        to her and said sorry for my attitude. She forgave（原諒）me and then we talked a lot     _ .

Do you have anybody like that in your life? Let me encourage（鼓勵）       ，if at all possible, go to clear the air between you.

試題分析：這篇文章作者通過自己與鄰居之間因為養(yǎng)鴨子所產(chǎn)生的摩擦一事，來向我們講述了一個道理，鄰里之間要寬容大度，和睦相處，不要因為一點小事就鬧不愉快。

1.考查動詞及語境的理解。根據(jù)本段內(nèi)容的描述，購買農(nóng)場的目的是在上面飼養(yǎng)動物所以用動詞keep，其他的幾個選項意思比較好排除；故選B。

2.考查動詞及語境的理解。我們的鄰居買了一些鴨子。根據(jù)后面的描述They seemed very lovely，可知應(yīng)該是購買了鴨子，而不是賣掉、扔掉或者展示、炫耀；故選A。

3.考查動詞及語境的理解。然而這群鴨子卻只得以在他們的院子里和鄰居的院子里來回跑動，此處是指這些可愛的小動物不能到處亂跑；故選B。

4.考查介詞及語境的理解。因為本段的第一句就說這是我們鄰居家的家禽，所以自然也包括我們的院子成為鴨子的活動場地；其他三個選項的意思都是不包括我們的院子，與原文意思正相反；故選D。

5.考查代詞及語境的理解。因為我們的蔬菜成了鴨子的美食，所以我們經(jīng)常將他們“趕”回家，所以想知道為什么沒有用一個柵欄將他們攔��；故選B。

6.考查動詞及語境的理解。根據(jù)上一段作者的不滿可推知他是責(zé)問他的鄰居問題的嚴(yán)重性，所以應(yīng)該是問他是否意識到鴨子帶來的麻煩，saw意為“看見”；understood意為“理解，明白”；thought意為“想到”；故選D。

7.考查名詞及語境的理解。 根據(jù)本句話的后半部分he was away traveling.可知，鄰居家的女主人強調(diào)鴨子是“他”養(yǎng)的，然后再結(jié)合選項只有A選項她丈夫是男性，其他的三個選項都指女性，均可排除；故選A。

8.考查名詞及語境的理解。根據(jù)第二段最后一句there wasn’t a fence to keep them.可知，要是有一個柵欄就可以攔住鴨子跑到自家的地里吃蔬菜了，所以當(dāng)作者意識到鄰居沒有建柵欄的打算之后，作者的兒子建了一個柵欄；故選A。

9.考查連詞及語境的理解。因為前面鄰居提到她丈夫的行蹤he was away traveling.，所以應(yīng)該是直到幾個月后我才再次見到我的鄰居；故選C。

10.考查動詞及語境的理解。speak“說”、“講”、“演講”。做及物動詞時，賓語常是表示語言的詞；本句中意為邀請我在聚會上發(fā)言；talk“講”、“說話”、“談話”，與speak的意義相近。一般用做不及物動詞，指一般的談話或交談，須跟賓語時，與to、with、about等介詞連用；say般著重講話的內(nèi)容，指有連貫性的說話，通常用做及物動詞；tell指把一件事情傳達給別人或講述一件事情、一個故事等。常用做及物動詞；根據(jù)本段的大意故選A。

11.考查名詞及語境的理解。由后面的內(nèi)容the first woman I saw when I walked into the church was my neighbor.并結(jié)合前面描述的和鄰居的矛盾可知此時在這里見到鄰居是令她感到意外的；故選D。

12.考查形容詞及語境的理解。此時作者意識到在處理和鄰居間的矛盾時自己不夠容忍，態(tài)度不好，故選B。

13.考查副詞及語境的理解。意識到自己的不足，所以作者徑直走過去表示歉意，up意為“向前”；故選A。

14.考查副詞及語境的理解。根據(jù)鄰居的反應(yīng) She forgave（原諒）me 可知在接下來的聊天中雙方應(yīng)該是聊的比較投機的，即happily；故選C。

15.考查代詞及語境的理解。作者通過自己的經(jīng)歷并結(jié)合 go to clear the air between you.一句可知，作者是在奉勸讀者要積極勇敢地澄清誤會，和睦相處；故選B。

考點：故事類短文。
