My son Joey was born with club feet（天生特厚的畸形脚）. The doctors assured us that with treatment he would be able to walk1 , but would never run very well. The first three years of his life were 2  in surgery（手术）. By the time he was eight, you wouldn’t know he had a 3  when you saw him walk.

The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during 4  , and Joey would jump right in，run and play, too. We 5  told him that he probably wouldn’t be able to 6 as well as the other children. So he didn’t know.

In seventh grade he 7  to go out for the crosscountry team. Every day he 8  with the team. He worked harder and ran 9  than any of the others — perhaps he sensed that the 10  that seemed to come naturally to so many others did not come naturally to him. 11 the entire team runs, only the top seven runners have the potential （潜能） to 12 points for the school. We didn’t tell him he probably would never make the team, so he didn’t know.

He13 to run four to five miles a day, every day — even the day he had a 103degree fever. I was 14 , so I went to look for him after school. I found him 15  all alone. I asked him how he felt. "Okay," he said. He had two more16  to go. The sweat ran down his face and his eyes were glassy from his fever. 17   he looked straight ahead and kept running.

Two weeks later, the names of the team runners were 18 . Joey was number six on the list. Joey had made the team. He was in  19  grade — the other six team members were all eighthgraders. We never told him he shouldn’t 20  to make the team. We never told him he couldn’t do it...so he didn’t know. He just did it.

【解题关键】作者的儿子的脚天生畸形，经过手术后能够正常走路，但不能像其他孩子那样跑，但作者并没有把这一点告诉儿子。以后儿子决定了参加学校的越野长跑队，凭着坚强的毅力和刻苦的训练终于脱颖而出被校队选中。文章按照时间顺序叙述所发生的一切。理清文章的逻辑关系，理解本文人物的特殊境地和坚强的性格是做好这篇完形填空的关键。

【答案解析】

7.    A参加越野长跑是儿子的"决定"。

8.    C儿子参加集体"训练"符合文章的逻辑。

[押题四]生活中的礼貌无处不在，本文汲取生活中的细节，告诉我们怎样做一个有礼貌的人。在命题方面以对文意和前后的逻辑关系的把握和理解为考查重心，设空以实词为主，其中涉及动词7个，动词短语1个，名词7个，形容词2个，副词3个， 连词1个。总的看来，本篇完形填空在题材、体裁、文章长度、难度、设空分布等方面与高考试题极其接近。

 

What are the basic elements of good manners? Certainly a strong sense of justice is one; courtesy is often   36   more than a highly developed sense of fair play. A friend of mine once told me of   37  along a one-lane(单行道), unpaved mountain road.  38  was another car that produced clouds of choking   39  , and it was a long way to the nearest  40  highway. Suddenly , at a  41  place, the car ahead pulled off the road.  42  that its owner might have engine trouble, my friend stopped and asked if anything was wrong."  43  , "said the other driver. " But you' ve endured my dust this far; I’ll  44  with yours the rest of the way."

    Another element of courtesy is empathy(善解人意) , a  45  that enables a person to see into the mind or heart of someone else, to understand the pain or  46   there and to do something to minimize it. A man   47  alone in a restaurant was trying to unscrew (旋松) the cap of a beer bottle,   48  he couldn't do it because of badly injured   49   . He asked a young busboy to help him. The boy took the bottle, turned his back   50   and loosened the cap without difficulty. Then he   51  it again. Turning back to the man, he   52  to make great efforts to open the bottle without success.  53  he took it into the kitchen and returned shortly, saying that he had managed to loosen it — but only with a pair of pliers (钳子).

Yet another component of politeness is the ability to treat all people   54  , regardless of all status or importance.  55  when you have doubts about some people , act as if they are worthy of your best manners. You may also be astonished to find out that they really are.

Courtesy is the key to a happier world.

36.A nothing more than相当于only，“只不过”之意。

37.D 后面的the other driver暗示我们，作者的朋友也是一位司机，他当时正开车行驶在一条没有铺柏油的单行山道上。

38.B 另一辆车应并在前面，从后面的the car ahead可以找到答案。Before不能用作副词，表示空间关系。

39.A 前一辆车扬起了很多灰尘。本段末有提示。

40.C 作者朋友的车现在正开在灰尘滚滚的没有铺柏油的山路上，所以可以推测，要开到最近的铺好了柏油的公路上还有一段很长的距离。paved与前面的unpaved对应，比较符合语境。

41.B 根据常识判断，汽车开在路边停下来，一般是停在比较宽的地方。

42.D 这里描述了作者朋友当时的想法(内心的一种猜测)，故用Thinking。他认为那部汽车的发动机出了毛病。

43.C 从后面的But可以判断，汽车并没有什么毛病。

44.C 在余下的路程中，另一辆车的司机要求作者朋友的车开在前面，而他自己的车开在后面，忍受吃灰之苦。put up with是“忍受”之意符合语境。而do away with(废除)，catch up with(赶上)，go on with(继续)与句意不合。

45.D empty是个人所具有的品质和能力，而不是一种行为(behavior)，方法(way)或技术(technique)。

46.A or暗示，填空处应选用pain的近义词，作同位语，而只有unhappiness符合这个要求。

47.A 按常识判断，在饭店里应该是在吃饭。

48.B 意义转折。

49.C 拧不开酒瓶盖，说明受伤的部位应该是手指头。

50.C momentarily表示“一会儿，片刻”之意。他转过身有一会儿时间(目的是不让这个顾客看见他轻而易举地旋开了酒瓶盖)，其它选项不符合句意。

5l.D 他这时又把旋松的瓶盖拧紧。

52.B 他假装费了很大的劲却没有旋开瓶盖。

53.B 作者是按事情发生的先后顺序来写的，这时已是故事的尾声，故用finally。

54.A alike在这里是副词，“相同地”意思。礼貌的另一个要素是要平等地对待每一个人，不管他的地位多高，多么重要。

55.D 这里要选用程度状语来修饰，且含有转折的意思。故用Even。

 

[押题五]幸福源于对生活的孜孜追求，本文以作者的心情的变化为线索，从一开始的消沉到后来的“pure joy”。在命题方面以对文意和人物心情的起伏的逻辑关系的把握和理解为考查重心，设空以实词为主，其中涉及动词5个，动词短语4个，名词3个，形容词2个，副词3个，介词短语1个，情态动词1个， 连词1个。总的看来，本篇完形填空在题材、体裁、文章长度、难度、设空分布等方面与高考试题极其接近。

Mother managed to buy me some more paint and brushes, along with one or two drawing books and a pencil. This, of  course, broadened my range of expression and   36   me to have a greater   37   of subjects. After the first few weeks of uncertainty and awkwardness, I   38   contentedly with my new pastime (消遣). I   39   every day upstairs in the back bedroom, completely   40   I was   41  . I didn't know it then, but I had found a way to be happy again and   42   some of the things that had made me unhappy.   43   I learnt to forget myself. I didn’t miss   44   with my brothers now, for I had something to keep my mind   45  , something to make each day a thing to   46  . I would sit on the floor for hours, holding   47   between my toes, my right leg curled up (蜷缩的) under my left, my arms held tightly at my sides, hands clenched(紧握). All my paint and brushes were   48   me, and I   49   get mother or father to pin (钉住)the drawing paper to the floor with tacks(大头钉) to keep it   50  . It looked like a very awkward position, with my head almost   51   my knees and my back as crooked as a corkscrew (瓶塞钻) , but I painted all my best pictures   52  , with the wooden floor as my only easl (画架) . Slowly I began to recover from my   53   depression (消沉) . I had a feeling of pure joy while I painted,   54   I had never experienced before and   55   seemed almost to lift me above myself.

41. A. forgotten         B. changing            C. growing                D. improving

42. A. to remember      B. to put down          C. to forget                D. to deal with

43. A. Above all        B. In all                C. After all                D. At all

44. A. going out        B. playing football        C. to play with             D. to go shopping

45. A. swift           B. active                C. calm                   D. free

46. A. look into        B. wait for              C. expecting                D. look forward to

49. A. should          B. might               C. could                   D. would

50. A. still            B. steady               C. high                    D. straight

55. A. whatever       B. with which            C. what                   D. which

36.B 动词allow的搭配是allow sb to do，而let的搭配是let sb dosth；选项persuade和advise都不合句子的意思。

37.B 根据文章开头的叙述得知，“妈妈为我买了一些画笔、颜料、绘画书和铅笔，扩大了我的表达方式，从而‘允许’我有了更多的choice。

38.A 经过头几周的适应之后，我很高兴地settled down，定下心来，开始一种新的消遣。B项不合句子的意思，C项的set out后应接to do，而get down to则应当用doing的形式。

39.C 从上下文判断，此处应当用painted，而非wrote，carved或drew。

40.A 从句中completely一词，可猜出“我”是整天一个人在楼上画画的。从上下文还可看出，我现在的心情好了许多，因而不一定会“in silent”。

41.B 从文章的后半部分可看出，我自从开始画画后，心情变好了，人有了很大变化。C项的growing(长大)和improving(改进)与文章没有必然的语境联系。

42.C 从上一句I found a way to be happy again可判断“我有了使自己忘记那些不开心的事情的办法”。

43.A 总之，(above all)我进入了一种“forget myself”的境地。

44.A miss(错过)后要用doing的形式。从文章的描述可看出，我已从某种不幸的意外打击中逐步恢复过来了。因而不会错过和哥哥们一同外出的机会的。但因为我的残疾，是不可能playing football的了。

45.B 考对文章的理解。因为重新有了生活的勇气，总有新的事物使得我能够keep my mind active。

46.D 从上下文可知，我每天都盼着新的一天的到来。

47.A 考综合理解能力。这一段是描述我是如何国画的。通读全文，可知道，我是个残疾的孩子，没有手，只好用脚趾夹住笔来画画。

48.D 因为行动不方便，所以颜料应当是放在我的周围，around me。close要用close to me；而behind则不妥。

49.D 考情态动词。would可指“过去常常，总是会做……”

50.B  keep it steady指固定住画纸或画布。

5l.A 考综合理解能力。我画画时的姿势，因为是用脚在作画，所以头几乎是放在两膝之间了。用between。

52.A 考词组辨异。根据上文，应当选in this way，即“我就是用这种画法完成了我最好的作品”。B项the same way是说“用同一方法作画”C项half way是“半路”,D项in the way则是“碍事，挡道”的意思。

53.D 考综合分析的能力。根据整个故事的情节来看，我已经逐步从“早先的”消沉中走了出来。

54.D 考长句的阅读能力。从对整个句子的理解可看出此处用了一个排比，重复使用a feeling使得句子生动。

55.D 考定语从句。which引导的定语从句修饰feeling。
