【解析】 本文是一篇记叙文。全文讲述了“我”和孙女到故乡去“寻宗觅源”的故事。“我”和“我”的孙女一起回到了“我”曾经住过的家,在已经破旧不堪的房子前,“我”思绪万千,想起了曾经在这里生活时的点点滴滴和难忘的一切。“我”的孙女也瞬间对这里萌生了一种找到“家”的感觉。
1.
2.2】解析:选C。联系空后的across the bay(横跨过海湾)以及介词to可以判断,此处表示“‘我’用手指着远方的那个破旧的房子”。point to是固定搭配,表示“指向(远方的事物)”。
3.3】解析:选D。联系前文驱车从遥远的地方来到故乡以及后文描述的“我”对故乡过去种种回忆的内容,可知“我”来这里是追寻过去的“珍贵”记忆。shared共享的;short短暂的;fresh新鲜的;treasured珍贵的。
4.4】解析:选C。根据此空前的one of the mobile children可知此处强调Lise小时候是个流动儿童,再根据空后的from house to house可以判断,此处move与语境相符合。
5.5】解析:选A。联系空后的“因此我们(我和Lise)来到了‘我’和‘我’的丈夫出生的地方(暗指回到了故乡)”以及短文最后“We must all go home again...”可知,此空应该强调“Lise渴望有个真正的家”。
6.6】解析:选B。联系上文我们知道,Nova Scotia是“‘我’和‘我’丈夫出生的地方”,故可推知这里也是我们的祖辈“生活”过的地方。
7.7】解析:选B。联系短文第一句“我们整个上午一直在大雾中开车”可推知此处表示“我们在那个破旧的房子跟前停下了车”。故pull up表示“使(车)停下”,符合语境。catch up赶上;step down让位;辞职;come down下来;败落;倒塌。
8.8】解析:选C。联系空后的“swift as the tide”可知,此空用rushing最为合适,表示“记忆如潮水般快速涌回脑海”。
9.9】解析:选D。联系42空后的by the house以及46空前的go into the house可推知此处表示“我渴望再一次走进曾经见证我美好成长史的房子”。
10.0】解析:选C。根据空后a member of the family可推知房子和家人构成的是所属关系,即“虽然这座房子仍为我们家庭中的一个成员所拥有,但已经好久没有人居住了”。adapt to适应;appeal to吸引;belong to属于;occur to发生,出现。
11.1】解析:选B。根据walk与空后的rooms的逻辑关系可知此处表示“穿过房间”,故选B。
12.2】解析:选D。由本句中“wrote in her diary”可推知母亲当时是“坐在”卧室的窗边写日记。
13.3】解析:选D。根据上下文可知此处仍然是描写作者的回忆,即“我仍然能够回想起当时热忱的家人进进出出的情景”。形容人又多又拥挤时,常用pour一词,表示“涌入/涌出”。march into长驱直入;look into朝……里面看;调查;break into闯入。
14.4】解析:选B。联系空前描述的内容可知,“我”的这些记忆都是很珍贵、很难忘的,所以“我从未对和他们生活在一起而感到厌烦过”。be with sb.表示“和某人在一起”,符合上下文语境。
15.5】解析:选B。根据后文“当我在讲述的时候”可知与talk对应的就是listen。此处强调Lise听得非常专注。
16.6】解析:选A。因为上下文多次提到roots,house这样的字眼,作者意在突出“寻宗觅源”之意,故可知此空强调Lise意识到了自己的根就在这里,即:她是从这里开始了自己的生命旅程。
17.7】解析:选D。只有found一词与38空前的seeking roots for her(寻找她的家族之根)遥相呼应,表示Lise终于“找到了自己的根”。
18.8】解析:选A。根据上下文作者所表达的情感来看,“知道‘我’从哪里来”应该是每个人“心底”最伟大的渴望之一。right权利;interest兴趣;behavior行为。
19.9】解析:选C。因为此空前已经提到了“have an origin”,所以此处应该用that origin与之相呼应,表示强调和特指的意味。
20.20】解析:选A。纵览全文,把握作者主要写作意图可知,“我”通过记叙与孙女一起“寻宗觅源”的经历就是要证明一点:“知道自己是谁,知道自己来自哪里”,而后才能真正理解“I”这一个词所蕴含的深层“意义”。meaning意思,意义;expression表达;表情;connection联系;background背景。
