【解析】

試題分析:Steve是個(gè)學(xué)習(xí)落后的學(xué)生,每次考試都不及格,他天天沉浸在自己的想象里。直到一天漂亮的女老師Miss White 對(duì)他表現(xiàn)的關(guān)注,徹底使他改變了。故事給我們的啟示是:人人都需要關(guān)注,一句善意的話,一個(gè)鼓勵(lì)的眼神甚至都會(huì)改變一個(gè)人。

1.B介詞短語辨析。A. 為了紀(jì)念;B.盡管;  C.除…之外; D.萬一。根據(jù)上文Surprisingly, he could read, yet,可以推斷他的閱讀能力很差,由此可知B為正確選項(xiàng)。意思:然而令人奇怪的是,盡管他的閱讀能力差,他還是能閱讀。

2.C介詞辨析。A.到 ;B.在…前 ;C.到…才;D.在…上。上文講他一直不被人注意,而下文內(nèi)容則是講述他被Miss White的關(guān)注,所以此處應(yīng)該用until,句意:他一直不被人注意直到懷特小姐的出現(xiàn)。

3.B形容詞辨析。A .富裕的;B.年輕的;C.新鮮的;D.簡單的。根據(jù)上文Steve, a twelve¬-year¬-old boy可以判斷B選項(xiàng)正確。句意:在他年幼的生命中第一次他的眼睛從老師身上移不開了。

4.A副詞辨析。A.仍然 ;B.甚至; C.也 ;D.永遠(yuǎn)。根據(jù)上文Steve had been failing since the first grade可知這次是和以前一樣不及格,所以用“仍然”,答案選A。

5.D動(dòng)詞辨析。A. 觀察;B.改錯(cuò); C.選擇 ;D.測試。由下文Steve hurried through his tests,可知這是一次考試,測驗(yàn)孩子們的基本技能,所以D選項(xiàng)正確。

6.C動(dòng)詞辨析。A. 斗爭;  B.同意 ; C.繼續(xù); D.宣告。根據(jù)語境判斷此處用continue,表示Steve一天中持續(xù)的恍惚狀態(tài)。答案選C。

7.B形容詞辨析。A. 高興的;B.不耐煩的;C.熱心的 ;D.害羞的?荚嚂r(shí)候?qū)W生走神,老師會(huì)提醒,根據(jù)當(dāng)時(shí)情形和老師說的話“Pay attention!”判斷,最佳選項(xiàng)為B。

8.C動(dòng)詞辨析。A. 決定;B.經(jīng)營; C.轉(zhuǎn)身; D.忘記。從情理可知聽到喊他的名字,Steve應(yīng)該是轉(zhuǎn)身去看老師,所以C選項(xiàng)正確。

9.A動(dòng)詞短語辨析。A.仔細(xì)檢查,查閱;B.壓過;C.翻轉(zhuǎn);D.移交。老師下文說的是考試結(jié)果,所以此時(shí)老師喚回Steve的注意后開始去翻閱考試成績,故A選項(xiàng)正確。

10.A介詞短語辨析。A.除。。外;B.因?yàn)椋捎;C.關(guān)于;至于;D.多達(dá)。從老師說的話You all did pretty well和下文The smartest boy in the seventh grade is failing my class!判斷可知除了一個(gè)學(xué)生外其余所有的學(xué)生都通過了考試,所以A選項(xiàng)正確。

11.C名詞辨析。A.愿望;B.記錄; C.心臟; D.背部。從語境可知老師因?yàn)橐粋(gè)學(xué)生沒及格而表示難過心痛,所以判斷C選項(xiàng)正確。

12.B名詞辨析。A.疼痛;  B.凝視 ;C.感覺; D.對(duì)照。從情理判斷當(dāng)老師說這話的時(shí)候目光應(yīng)該是盯著Steve的,故B項(xiàng)正確。句意:老師猶豫著說道,尖銳的目光能夠把Steve釘?shù)阶簧稀?/p>

13.A情態(tài)動(dòng)詞辨析。A.不(表意愿或?qū)恚籅.不能;C.一定不要;D.不應(yīng)該。根據(jù)上下文推測Steve是不愿意做作業(yè),所以A選項(xiàng)正確。

14.D形容詞辨析。A.困窘的 ;B.沮喪的 ;C.批準(zhǔn)的; D.深思的,沉思的。根據(jù)下文Steve的轉(zhuǎn)變可知在他知道了老師關(guān)心,在意他之后,他的內(nèi)心和態(tài)度發(fā)生了轉(zhuǎn)變, D選項(xiàng)正確。

15.D名詞辨析。A. 調(diào)查 ; B演講; C.報(bào)告; D.測試。根據(jù)下文出現(xiàn)的__49__ his first test!可以判斷老師進(jìn)行了測試,所以D選項(xiàng)正確。

16.B動(dòng)詞短語辨析。A. 放棄; B.上交 ; C.關(guān)。 D.穿過。根據(jù)下文Miss White took his paper.可知Steve第一個(gè)交了試卷,所以B選項(xiàng)正確。

17.C名詞辨析。A. 尊敬;B.好奇; C驚訝;D.恐懼。由故事內(nèi)容可知Steve從來都是考試不及格,這次第一個(gè)交了試卷,老師對(duì)此應(yīng)該感覺驚訝,所以C為正確選項(xiàng)。

18.B名詞辨析。A. 勝利; B.震動(dòng),震驚; C.悲傷;D.信心。根據(jù)故事的敘述可知Steve從來考試不及格,這次他不僅第一個(gè)交上試卷,而且根據(jù)下文可知Steve考試及格了,由此可以推斷當(dāng)時(shí)老師是感到震驚,所以B選項(xiàng)正確。

19.D動(dòng)詞辨析。A. 逃跑; B.帶走 ; C.錯(cuò)過 ;D.通過。通過老師滿意的表情her face broke into a bright smile.可以推斷Steve考試及格了,通過了考試。所以D選項(xiàng)正確。

20.A不定代詞辨析。A. 沒有什么 B.某事  C.任何事 D.每件事。從文章內(nèi)容可知當(dāng)Steve知道老師在意他的時(shí)候,他充滿了喜悅,而且考試也及格了,由此推斷從那以后Steve徹底變了,不像以前了,所以A選項(xiàng)正確。

考點(diǎn):考查故事類短文。

    Steve, a twelve-year-old boy with alcoholic parents, was about to be lost forever, by the U.S. education system. He had been failing since first grade. Steve was a big boy, looking more like a teenager than a twelve year old, yet, Steve went unnoticed... until Miss White.

    Miss White was a smiling, young, beautiful redhead, and Steve was in love! For the first time in his young life, he couldn’t take his eyes off his teacher; yet, still he failed. He never did his homework, and he was always in trouble with Miss White. His heart would break he was punished for failing to turn in his homework! Still, he did not study.

    In the middle of the first term of school, the entire seventh grade was tested for basic skills. Steve hurried through his tests, and continued to dream of other things.  His heart was in the woods, where he often escaped alone, trying to shut out the sights, sounds and smells of his alcoholic home. 

One day, Miss White’s impatient voice broke into his daydreams.

    “Steve!” he turned to look at her.

         “Pay attention!”

         Steve locked his eyes on Miss White with adolescent adoration, as she began to go over the test results for the seventh grade.

         “You all did pretty well,” she told the class, “except for one boy, and it breaks my heart to tell you this, but...” She hesitated.

         “...The smartest boy in the seventh grade is failing my class!”

         She just stared at Steve, as the class turned around for a good look. Steve dropped his eyes and carefully examined his fingertips.

         After that, it was war!! Steve still wouldn’t do his homework even as the punishments became more severe.

         “Just try it! ONE WEEK!” He was unmoved.

         You’re smart enough! You’ll see a change!” Nothing happened.

         “Give yourself a chance! Don’ give up on your life!” Nothing.

         “Steve! Please! I care about you!”

         Wow! Suddenly, Steve got it!! Someone cared about him? Someone, totally perfect, CARED ABOUT HIM!

         Steve went home from school, thoughtful, that afternoon.  He, quickly, gathered up his camping things, this time including his schoolbooks. Determined, he headed for the woods.

The following Monday he arrived at school on time, and he waited for Miss White to enter the classroom. She walked in, all sparkle and smiles! God, she was beautiful! He expected her smile to turn on him. It did not.

         Miss White, immediately, gave a quiz on the weekend homework. Steve hurried through the test, and was the first to hand in his paper. With a look of surprise, Miss White took his paper. Obviously puzzled, she began to look it over. Steve walked back to his desk, his heart beating within his chest. As he sat down, he couldn’t resist another look at the lovely woman.

         Miss White’s face was in total shock! She glanced up at Steve, then down, then up. Suddenly, her face broke into a bright smile. The smartest boy in the seventh grade had just passed his first test!

From that moment nothing was the same for Steve. Life at home remained the same, but life still changed. He discovered that not only could he learn, but he was good at it! And he continued this course throughout his school life.

         After high-school Steve entered the Navy, and he had a successful military career.  During his Naval career, he inspired many young people, who without him, might not have believed in themselves.

         You see, it’s simple, really. A change took place within the heart of one boy, all because of one teacher, who cared.                          

1. How did Miss White’s expression change when she got Steve’s paper?   

         A. satisfied —shocked —surprised —puzzled            B. puzzled —surprised —shocked —satisfied

         C. surprised —puzzled —shocked —satisfied                  D. surprised —shocked —satisfied —puzzled

2. Which of the following statements is NOT right according to the passage? 

A. Steve fell in love with Miss White at the first sight of her.

B. Steve’s parents were so addicted to drinking that they paid little attention to Steve’s life.

C. Steve would rather stay in the woods to keep himself away from his home.

D. Having being punished many times, Steve determined to work hard and passed his first test.

3. Which of the following can serve as the best title for this passage?

         A. The difference a teacher can make                               B. The school life of a stubborn boy

         C. The importance of family education                               D. The skills of being a good teacher
