My entire sound world exists by making use of almost every 45 that I have.

54. A. mean B. seem C. conclude D. say 55. A. directed B. guided C. taught D. limited
36. B 解析:考查名词词义,综合整个语篇及文章最后一段 “I would encourge people not to allow…”的提示,可知作者虽身残而志坚,挑战世俗,大胆尝试,最终获得成功,可知最佳答案为B项。 37. C 解析:考查动词词义 ,文中take piano lessons 为动词搭配,表示:上(听)钢琴课之意,故排除其它三个干扰项。
38. B 解析:考查下文照应,由下文“I was completely deaf ”;“not as a deaf musician”;“ I was totally deaf” 处可知作者年幼失聪 (hearing)。
39. D 解析:考查名词辨析,根据文章,医生断言神经受损是作者耳聋的原因所在,而非产生的结果,故排除B项,A项表示:证据,C项表示:借口,均不符合文意。
40. A 解析:考查动词词义和词汇的褒贬语境,从文中可知,作者虽患耳疾,但年纪愈长,对音乐的热情也愈涨,再由but一词的暗示,可敲定left为正确答案。
41. D 解析:考查名词词义,根据文意,作者的人生目标是要成为一名打击乐器独奏演员,所以D为正确答案,A项表示: 意图,B项表示: 决定,C项表示: 诺言,均不准确。
42. B 解析:考查动词词义,由文中可知,由于听力丧失,作者无法用耳朵去听音乐,所以只能尝试学会以“另类”的方式去感悟音乐,选项B恰好表示: 学习、习得之意,符合文意。
43. A 解析:考查动词辨意,由上文可知,作者无法象常人一样去听音乐,就想出只穿着袜子不穿鞋,利用身体的震动来感知音乐,分辨音调高低。其中can与tell连用,正好表达“分辨”、“辨别”之意,为正确答案。
44. C 解析:考查语篇综合分析能力,根据文意和句子结构可判断,只有C项imagination (想象力)为正确答案。
45. A 解析:考查名词辨意,根据上文, 作者听力丧失,所以只能协调其它的感官去“听”音乐。故A项为正确答案。
46. C 解析:考查语篇领悟能力,此处表达作者要立志成为音乐家,所以不难选出determine一词,其他三项dissatisfied, astonished, discouraged因感情色彩与文章主旨明显不符,而不能入选。
47. A 解析:考查副词意义,作者耳患顽疾,且又申请著名的伦敦皇家音乐学院去学习,这在当时是没有哪个聋哑学生能够做到的,故此题选A为宜。
48. D 解析:考查学生的逻辑推理能力,由上下文语境,再加上衔接词and(注意文中没用but,说明此处表示并列,而非转折)可推知,作者的行为自然要受到老师的反对。此处学生易误选support一词而造成语意前后矛盾,以致偏离主题。
49. B 解析:考查副词词义,从文中可知,作者大胆尝试,抵制压力,克服困难,最终考入皇家音乐学院,所以B项(最终地)为正确答案。
50. C 解析:考查动词词义,由第四段最后一句可知,应是作者毕业时获得学院最高荣誉奖,其它三项不妥。
51. A 解析:考查动词词义,根据文章,作者经过不懈努力,后来成为第一位专职打击音乐独奏演员,再由下句“…had been written specially for solo percussionists.”中write一词的同义复现,可确定上句答案为A项。
52. D 解析:考查代词词义,根据上下文逻辑,在此作者想表达很少有人来专门为打击音乐独奏演员来谱曲,所以出现上文作者挺身而出,竭力为演员们来谱曲,所以此题D项为正确答案。
53. B 解析:考查连词用法,根据上下文逻辑,可知此处应使用表示转折的关联词,选项A (however)虽然表示转折含义,但不用做连词,不能连接句子,故排除。所以B项为正确答案。
54. A 解析:考查动词词义,根据文意和句式结构(此句为双重否定句)可知,mean表示:“意味着”,为最佳答案。 55. D 解析:考查动词词义,作者通过自身经历劝导人们不要为别人的思想而束缚自己,故D项 (limited表示:限制)为最佳答案。

Money was always tight, but we had a 36 over our heads, food on the table, clothes on our backs, and if not a lot, always 37 . Not knowing we were poor, my kids(孩子们) just thought I was 38 . I’ve always been glad about that. It was Christmas time, and although there wasn’t 39 for a lot of gifts, we planned to celebrate with a family party. But the big 40 for the kids was the fun of Christmas 41 .
They planned weeks ahead of time, asking 42 what they wanted for Christmas. Fortunately, I had saved $120 for 43 to share by all five of us.
The big 44 arrived. I gave each kid a twenty-dollar bill and 45 them to look for gifts of about four dollars each. Then everyone scattered(散开). We had two hours to shop; then we would 46 back at the “Santa’s Workshop”.
Driving home, everyone was in high Christmas spirits, 47 my younger daughter, Ginger, who was unusually 48 . She had only one small, flat bag with a few candies — fifty-cent candies! I was so angry, but I didn’t say anything 49 we got home. I called her into my bedroom and closed the door, 50 to be angry again. This is what she told me. “I was looking 51 thinking of what to buy, and I 52 to read the little cards on the ‘Giving Trees.’ One was for a little girl, four years old, and all she 53 for Christmas was a doll(玩具娃娃). So I took the card off the tree and 54 the doll for her. We have so much and she doesn’t have anything.”
