解析:

本文主要講敘 Ella Fant 因為過分溺愛和相信自己的兒子所引出的一個滑稽故事。

1. D。根據(jù)下文講到的 Ella Fant 對兒子的細心照顧可推知她非常 loved 自己的兒子。

2. B。in one’s eyes 為習語,意為“在某人的心目中”、“在某人看來”。

3. A。比較四個選項,結(jié)合 Llla Fant 對兒子過于偏愛,可知選項 A 最佳。

4. C。in bed 為固定詞組,意為“在床上”。每天早上都端飯讓兒子在床上吃——這充分體現(xiàn)了 Fant 對兒子的溺愛,為下文作鋪墊。

5. B。to read 為修飾 the papers 的定語,兩者為動賓關系。

6. A。這是作者在反面襯托:不是 John 太懶不工作。

7. D。指 John 曾經(jīng)試做過幾個 jobs (下文有具體介紹)。

8. C。根據(jù)下文可知,John 每做一項工作都要犯一些很“低級”的錯誤。此處填 break,指他作為窗戶清潔時打碎玻璃。注意作者用 in first week, managed to, at least 等所表達的語氣。

9. C。根據(jù)下文的 …on his second day a passenger stole his bag with all the fares collected 可知,他 became 一名公共汽車售票員。

10. A。on his second day 指“在他上班的第二天”。

11. B。even 表示“甚至”,表示強調(diào)。

12. C。because 引出失去郵遞員工作的原因。

13. D。根據(jù)上文所列舉的 John 所遭遇的一連串失敗,可以推知此處應填 no。

14. D。由于沒有適合的工作可做,所以最后“決定”參軍。

15. A。根據(jù)下文提到的表示結(jié)果的 that she told the news to all her neighbours,可以推知 Mrs. Fant 對兒子參軍一事很激動(excited)。

16. C。結(jié)合上文,同時比較四個選項,news(消息)在此最合適。

17. B。ever 在此表示“曾經(jīng)”,在此指“曾經(jīng)有過的最優(yōu)秀的士兵”。

18. C。when 引導定語從句修飾 the great day。

19. A。根據(jù)作者對 Mrs. Fant 整體描述,尤其是她的 He is going to be the best soldier there ever was, I can tell you 可以推知,這是一位 proud mother。

20. B。Ella Fant 一大早就趕進城,其目的是想在人群中找到一個好位置(position)。

21. D。與 John 一起在隊伍中接受檢閱的應是他的 fellow soldiers (戰(zhàn)友)。

22. A。couldn’t help doing sth 是固定表達,其意為“忍不住做某事”。這里指的是當人們看到只有 John 一個人的步伐與大家不一致的時候,忍不住嘲笑他。

23. B。由于 Ella Fant 過分相信自己的兒子,認為做什么事都只有她的兒子才是最棒的,所以即使在自己的兒子步伐與大家不一致時,她還認為是別人的步伐與她兒子的不一致,并高喊 Isn’t he the best! 由此可推知,此時的 Ella Fant 心中恐怕只有 happiness。

24. A。根據(jù)后一句 They’re all out of step except my John! 可知,此處應 them,以保持前后人稱一致。

25. D。out of pace 意為“步伐不一致”,注意聯(lián)系上文的 … laughing at the one who couldn’t keep pace with the others。
