    One evening,Mary was a meeting for adoptive parents.0ne of the  5  fathers stood up to introduce himself. But before he spoke,he reached into his coat pocket and held up a 6 ,red paper rose.

解析:

 一朵小小的由纸折叠的玫瑰花,把许多有意义的事情联系

到了一起,使世间一种无条件的爱得以传递和发扬,使众多绝

望孤独的孩子摆脱孤独,获得希望……

1.A.poverty    B.10neliness  C.misery D.suffering   

  剖析:名词辨析。由下文主要人物的谈话可以看出,玛丽一

  直从事的事业就是通过为那些没有人爱的孩子找到新家的

方式,让他们拥有父母,获得爱和希望,也就是让他们摆脱孤

  独(10neliness),而不是poverty贫穷,misery不幸,suffering

  痛苦。

2.A.home    B.place   C.school D.1ife  

  剖析:名词辨析。由后面的the family以及下一段的for

  adoptive parents(养父母)可以看出.她是在为无家可归的孤

  儿找一个新的家.所以应选home。

3.A.glory    B.favor  C.habit D.tradition  

  剖析:名词辨析。由语境可知.这些年来.玛丽每一次为孤儿

  找到一个新家的时候都要送给那家人一朵纸做的玫瑰花。

  所以要用tradition意思是“惯例”.指因长久奉行而形成的习

  惯做法。glor5,“光荣”;favor“喜爱”;habit“习惯”,只用于表示个人习惯,强调习·赁成自然。

4.A. organizing    B. planning  C. hosting  D. attending   

  剖析:动词辨析。由语境可知.这里指的是她正在主持(host)

  一个想收养孩子的父母参加的会议。干扰项attend一般指

  参加会议,通常不在组织会议中发挥作用。

5.A.new    B.grateful  C.kind D.active   

  剖析:形容词辨析。这是为孤儿找新家的会议,所以这些父

  母就是刚刚收养孩子的,因此应选new(新的)。

6.A.broken    B.faded  C.treasured D.dried  

  剖析:形容词辨析。由14空后的SO long ago,可知应选faded

  “褪色的,(花)凋谢了的”。句意为:他把手伸进衣兜,拿出了

  一朵褪色的红色的纸玫瑰花。

7.A.tasteless    B.powerless C.priceless D.worthless   

  剖析:形容词辩析。worthless意为“没有价值的,没有用的”;

  由下文的“I didn’t know the talents inside me”可知。他当时

  流浪街头时.认为自己没用,认识不到自己的价值。priceless

  意为“无价的,贵重的”,与表达的意思正好相反;powerless

  “无力的”;tasteless“没味道的”。

8.A.directed    B.introduced  C.brought D.accepted  

剖析:动词辨析。句意为:然后玛丽把两个好人带进了

  (bring…into)我的生活。也就是说,他当年也是一个孤儿.

  是玛丽为他找到了养父母。注意introduce和into连用。表示

  引进,而不是介绍。

9.A.10ved    B.protected  C.cared D.cheered  

  剖析:动词辨析。由下文的They not only loved me…可知。

1 0.A. silently B. continuously

C.unintentionally D.unconditionally  

  剖析:副词辨析。由上文的“wonderful people”可以看出,他

  的养父母对他的爱应是无条件的(unconditionally)。silently

  “沉默地”;continuously“持续地”;unintentionally“非故意地、

  非存心地”。

1 1.A.necessities   B.possibilities  C. beauties D.riches  

  剖析:名词辨析。由上文7空后的“I didn’t know…what

  was possible for me”可以推出,这里要表达的意思是:我的

  养父母用鼓励我的方式(“Reach for your dreams”)为我敞开

  了一个“我”以前不知道存在的“我”潜力无穷的世界。

possibilities发展前途,潜在价值。

1 2.A.eager    B.willing  C.proud    D.1ucky  

  剖析:形容词辨析。由上文的描述可以看出,他认为收养一

  个孩子,用无条件的爱鼓励他成为一个有价值的人是很伟

  大的。所以得到这个机会他感到很自豪(proud)。

13.A.started out    B.came up C.turned out D.grew up   

  剖析:动词短语辨析。a child who started out(开始)just like

  me意思是:开始和我一样的(是个没人疼爱的)孤儿。come

  up“出现”;turn out“结果是”;grow up“长大”,都不符合

  语境。

1 4.A.understand    B.guess C.tell D.know  

  剖析:动词辨析。句意为:大家都知道(know)了很久以前.

  我妈妈是从哪里得到这朵玫瑰花的。

1 5.A.replaces    B.symbolizes C.equals D.creates   

  剖析:动词辨析。作者认为玛丽送给他的这朵玫瑰花象征

  着(symbolize)一个美丽的春天.自己收养的一个女孩的新

  生活的开端(beginning)。因为当年自己就是这样开始美好

  的生活的。

1 6.A.chance    B.mystery C.challenge D.beginning   

  剖析:名词辨析。见15题答案剖析。

1 7.A.reminds    B.helps  C.accompanies D.drives   

  剖析:动词辨析。remind sb.to do sth.使某人想起。前文提

  到·我的养父母给了我无条件的爱,这朵玫瑰花提醒我要和

  他们一样给我收养的小女孩提供无条件的爱。

18.A.fix    B.close  C.tie D.gather  

  剖析:动词辨析。tie…together把……连接在一起。句意

  为:玛丽。谢谢您,因为您送的玫瑰花把我们的生活连接在

  了一起。文章最后一句也有暗示。

19.A.cause    B.push  C.put D.1cave   

  剖析:动词辨析。leave sb.in quiet.使某人处于安静状态。

20.A.Yet    B.Besides C.Otherwise D.Therefore  

  剖析:连词辨析。该句和上文是转折关系。所以要用yet意

  思是“可是.却,然而”。句意为:一个简单的事情可以使我

  们的精神飞扬或使我们安静下来考虑一个新的开端。然而

  像玛丽的玫瑰花一样的小东西,也可以把有意义的东西连

  接在一起。

Most people think of birds as feathered animals that fly. Scientists,   36 , do not define (给…下定义) birds as animals that fly, because some birds do not. Of the 10,000 or so species of birds, 46 cannot   37 . Flight plays a key role in   38  for most birds. It allows them to find food over a   39  area and to get away from enemies. Ancestors of flightless birds may have   40   their ability to fly because they had no regular predators (捕食者) or did not need to fly to find food. Rather than fly, some of these birds developed other   41  to catch food and avoid enemies. Two examples of   42  birds are penguins and ostriches.
  43  birds that fly, penguins do not have wide wings or large feathers. In order to catch the fish they feed on, penguins use their powerful wings to swim   44 . And when they swim,  they look as if they are flying through the water.
