Valentine's Day at school was over,and I had no rose to __37__ in my locker like I had hoped. I came home a little __38__. I sat in my room dreaming about next year's romantic Valentine's Day __39__ the doorbell rang. There at the front door was a deliveryman __40__   one single rose to my house. Surely this rose wasn't for me. I didn't have such __41__. I closed the front door with a single rose in my hand and gave it to my mother. “__42__  the card!” she insisted when I told her it must be for her. I unsealed the envelope as my hands were __43__. I slowly lifted the card and read what it said:

To Amanda

From someone who cares

I must have read it twenty times in a matter of seconds, __44__ my eyes weren't playing tricks on me. But they weren't. The rose was for me. I must have been __45__ for about five minutes, until I started __46__ the obvious people and __47__ them of sending me a rose and playing a joke on my __48__ romantic heart. No one knew who sent it to me. My friends, family  and relatives were as __49__ to hear I got a rose from a __50__ someone as much as I was. I was on cloud nine(興奮) for weeks.

I __51__ did figure out who was it who sent me that rose. __52__ I did figure something else out. It didn't __53__ if it was a guy who secretly __54__ me who sent me that rose. What mattered was that it was from someone who __55__ about me and wanted to brighten up my day.

試題分析:文章大意:作者想要一朵玫瑰來使自己在情人節(jié)心情愉快。收到花后先是高興,然后情緒冷靜下來以后就想弄清楚送花的人是誰。結果沒能弄清是誰送的,但是作者認為只要有人默默地關心就行。

1.考查動詞搭配:A. brighten up點亮,B. fill up填滿,C. take up從事,D. decorate up裝飾,后文有提示,作者想要一朵玫瑰來使自己在情人節(jié)心情愉快。brighten up 意為“照亮;使高興”。本題中C 項干擾性最大,take up 意思是“占據(jù)”顯然不正確。選A

2.考查動詞:A. hide 躲藏,B. hang懸掛,C. plant種植,D. stick刺,卡,根據(jù)語境判斷,作為一個情竇初開的女大學生,作者想要一朵玫瑰掛在自己的衣物柜上,以顯示自己的自豪感。本題中A、C 兩項干擾性較大,hide“躲藏,藏起來”,不合乎大學生的心態(tài);plant“種植”,不合常理。選B

3.考查形容詞:A. mad發(fā)瘋的,生氣的,B. hungry饑餓的,C. angry生氣的,D. sad難過的,作者沒有收到期望中的玫瑰,因此回家的時候傷心是難免的。選D

4.考查連詞:A. before在…前面,B. until直到,C. when當…時候,這時,D. once一旦,此處是固定句型。表示正在干某事時,這時突然發(fā)生了什么事情,用when 引導并列句,說明后面的動作出乎意料之外。選C

5.考查動詞:A. posting郵寄,B. carrying運送,C. holding持有,D. delivering送,發(fā)表,根據(jù)語境判斷,郵遞員是來為作者送花。表示“送貨;發(fā)信”等,我們習慣用動詞 deliver。本題中B 項干擾性較大,carry 也有“運送”之意,但一般是指車、船運載,或人用工具運送,用在此處不合適。選D

6.考查名詞:A. chance機會,B. luck運氣,C. value價值,D. confidence自信,從后文可知,作者沒有想到玫瑰是送給自己的,作者并沒有抱任何希望,因此此處說自己沒有這么好的運氣。 選B

7.考查動詞:A. Open 打開,B. Read閱讀,C. Check檢查,D. Break打破,根據(jù)常識可知,送花時往往附有賀卡,因此打開卡片了解具體情況。本題中B 項干擾性最大,由下文...and read what it said 可知,此時還沒到讀的時候。 選A

8.考查動詞:A. closing關閉,B. moving 移動,C. shaking搖晃,顫抖D. spreading蔓延,傳播,由前文可以看出作者對花的渴望,因此在拆開信封時非常激動,手在“顫抖”。選C

9.考查動詞:A. praying 祈禱,B. expecting期待。C. doubting懷疑,D. believing相信,作者還是不敢相信花是送給自己的,因此祈禱眼睛沒有欺騙自己。本題中B、C 兩項干擾性較大,expect“期望”,doubt“懷疑”均不符合作者此時的舉動。 選A

10.考查形容詞:A. sorry對不起,B. curious 好奇的,C. happy快樂的,D. nervous緊張的,前后文聯(lián)系起來理解,作者先是高興,然后情緒冷靜下來以后就想弄清楚送花的人是誰。本題中B 項干擾性最大,curious“好奇的”,根據(jù)上下文可知作者高興過后才好奇是誰送的花。選C

11.考查動詞:A. realizing意識到,B. calling 打電話,C. visiting拜訪,D. questioning詢問,由下文作者問了好多人可知,作者開始給熟人“打電話”來了解情況。本題中D 項干擾性最大,question 作動詞時,意思是“提問,質疑”,顯然不合作者想了解實情的語氣。選B

12.考查動詞:A. informing通知,B. reminding提醒,C. accusing  指責,D. telling告訴,從后文可知,作者以為是熟人在開自己的玩笑,因此責備他們不應該開這樣的玩笑。accuse 意為“指責,控告”。本題中A、B 兩項干擾性較大,inform sb. of sth.“告知某人某事”; remind sb. of sth.“提醒某人某事”,雖然符合搭配,但意義不符合語境。選C

13.考查副詞: A. specially特別的,B. actually實際的,C. obviously顯然的,D. hopelessly無望的從前文可知作者因為沒有收到花,而非常失望,因此作者說自己的浪漫之心已經(jīng)不抱希望了。hopelessly“不抱希望地”,符合作者心情;其他選項顯然不符合邏輯。 選D

14.考查形容詞:A. surprised驚訝的,B. excited興奮的,C. amused好笑的,D. disappointed失望的,通過了解情況,作者發(fā)現(xiàn)熟人都沒有送花給作者,他們也感到奇怪,不知道誰送給作者的花。選A

15.考查形容詞:A. considerate考慮周到的,B. distant遙遠的,C. secret秘密的,D. generous慷慨的,從下文可知,作者一直沒有搞清楚到底是誰送的花,因此此處強調送花者非常神秘。本題中A、D 兩項干擾性較大,considerate“體貼的,考慮周到的”,generous“慷慨的,大方的”,不符合送花人送花卻不留姓名的神秘。選C

16.考查副詞:A. anyhow不管怎樣,B. still 仍然,C. already已經(jīng),D. never從不,從下文可知,作者一直沒有搞清楚到底是誰送的花。本題中A、C 項干擾性較大, anyhow“無論如何”,already“已經(jīng)”,顯然不符合上下文。 選D

17.考查連詞:A. For因為,B. So所以C. Then然后D. But但是,結合前后語境可知,此句與前句是轉折關系,but 引出作者本文議論的重點。for, so 表示前后是因果關系;then 表示前后是承接關系,不合語境。選D

18.考查動詞:A. happen發(fā)生,B. matter事情,C. appear似乎D. mean意味著,本句的意思是:是否有人暗戀自己,這并不重要,因此用it doesn't matter if 這一句型。 選B

19.考查動詞:A. loved喜愛,B. helped幫助,C. pitied同情,D. cheated欺騙,情人節(jié)收到別人送的花因此作者猜測或許有人暗戀自己。 選A

20.考查動詞搭配:作者強調:只要有人默默地關心(care about)你就行。本題中A、D 項干擾性較大, asked about詢問worry 也跟about 搭配,指“擔心”;talk about“談論,討論”,但顯然不合句意及作者想要表達的感想。選C

考點:考查故事類短文
