Two friends visited the zoo together. The zoo was very large and it was 3 6  to go everywhere. They had to decide where and which animal to visit as their time was   3 7. So both of them agreed not to  3 8  after choosing a 3 9  at every fork (岔路口). A road sign at the first fork   4 0  one way to the lion quarters and the other to the tiger hill. They decided on the  4 1  after a 4 2  discussion because lions were “the king of the grassland”. The second showed a division (路口) going separately to the panda and peacock. They 43  panda as it was the nation’s treasure and went its way. Thus they made choices all along the way and each choice meant 44   what they couldn’t help regretting. But they had to make it, and  45  , for it brooked(容忍) no delay. If they hesitated (犹豫不决) they would miss 46   . Only  47  decision could offer more chances for sightseeing and 48   possible regret.   Life is 49  like this—choices often occur that one has to make, for example, between two 50   jobs, two fascinating wooers(追求者). To get one you  51  give up the other——you can get half of it. If you 52  weighing the pros and cons and calculating gains and losses, you will most likely 53  empty-handedness. Don’t be sad about it. 54  you have got half of the desirable things in life——something that is  55  to come by.

试题分析:本文讲述的是两个朋友到动物园里看动物的所遇见的事情。
小题1:C 句意分析。动物园非常大,而他们的时间又是有限的,所以每个地方都去是不可能的。
小题2:B 形容词辨析。一个时间紧,一个地方大。这是他们要有选择地去看的两个原因。
小题3:A 动词辨析。return“原路返回,折回”。在岔路口如果不计划好,很可能会从原路折回再到另一处,这样就大大浪费了时间。
小题4: B 名词辨析。branch “分枝,(河流、道路、线路等)分岔”。既然在岔路口就不再是main road (大道),crossing(十字路口),highway(公路,高速公路)。
小题5:As动词辨析。how“指示,告示,指出”,如:The clock shows half past two.时钟的针指着两点半;point加上out可以表达“指出”之意;intend“打算,意欲”。
小题6:A 形容词辨析。A前者的B后来C最后D第三个;经过讨论他们决定用前者。
小题7:和discussion搭配可用brief,意为“简短的讨论”;long discussion“长时间的讨论”,用brief最恰当。
小题8:C 动词辨析A希望;B想要;C偏爱;D得到;他们偏爱熊猫,因为它是国宝。favor意为“偏爱”。
小题9:D在他们所作的决定中,每一个选择都意味着要放弃某些东西,而放弃这些,往往令人禁不住感到遗憾。give up“放弃,舍弃”。另外三个词均含有“得到,抓住”之意,和give up意思相反。
小题10:B根据本句后半部分可知“不容许耽搁”。slowly“缓慢地”;timely“及时地”,强调“适当的时间”;easily“容易地”。
小题11:B 犹豫不决、优柔寡断只能耽误更多的时间,错过更多的景致。
小题12:D只有快速地作出决定才能提供更多观光的机会,从而减少可能的遗憾。
小题13:C 动词辨析:reduce“减少”;increase“增加”;raise“提高”;cause“引起”。提高可能的遗憾和后悔
小题14:B  more or less“大致,大约”。上面这个故事所说明的道理借用到生活上,大致也是如此。just exactly“恰好,精确地”;hardly“几乎不”,与文意不符;most是代词或形容词“大部分”。
小题15:D 这几个是生活中的例子,和上面的故事相似。说明一个道理:鱼和熊掌不能兼得。desirable“非常想做的,令人满意的”。前两项应排除。reject“拒绝的,拒收的”;enjoyable“令人愉快的”。这个词的意义没有desirable那么强,那么令人难以割舍。
小题16:D  have to “不得不”,因客观原因,主观无能为力。must“必须”,强调主观认为有必要。wish,want表示主观的愿望。
小题17:A此处表示如果犹豫不决,患得患失,权衡利弊,那么就可能一无所获,两手空空。spend time doing“花时间做某事”;kill time“消磨时间,打发日子”;have a hard time“过得很艰难”;hope for“希望得到”。
小题18:D end up in“以某事而作为结局”;start with“以……开始”;get up“起床,起身”;succeed in“成功地做某事”。
小题19:D:at last “至少”。by no means,not in the least意思均是“一点也不”;at most“至多”。文章的最后以幽默的语调结尾:“不要难过,至少你能得到生活中最想要的东西的一半——最难得到的东西。”
小题20:C hard=difficult。短语动词come by的意思是为“得到”,相当于get。
点评:本文讲述的是两个朋友到动物园里看动物的所遇见的事情。从本篇完型我们可以看出完形的考查趋势。突出考察学生词汇与结构,词汇与结构这部分既是整个考试的基础,也是本题考察的重点部分,在以后的复习中,要特别重视词汇与语法的复习,重视自己基础的夯实与提高,只有这样,才能以不变应万变,在高考中中立于不败之地。另外在答题注意上下文理解,同时结合逻辑推理进行答题,题目就能迎刃而解了。

William Butler Yeats, a most famous Irish writer, was born in Dublin on June 13, 1865. His childhood lacked the harmony that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered "little of childhood but its pain". In fact, he inherited (继承) excellent taste in art from his family — both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature, particularly drama and poetry. 
Yeats had strong faith in the coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favorably at the beginning. He didn't lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama. 
Compared with his dramatic works, Yeats's poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition. 
He had not enjoyed a major public life since winning the Nobel Prize in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40, he would probably now be valued as a minor poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between the ages of 50 and 75. After Yeats's Death in 1939, W. H. Auden wrote, among others, the following lines: 
Earth, receive an honoured guest:
        William Yeats is laid to rest. 
        Let the Irish vessel (船) lie
        Emptied of its poetry.
小题1:Which of the following can describe Yeats's family?
A.It filled Yeats's childhood with laughter.
B.It was shocked by Yeats's choice.
C.It was a typically wealthy family.
D.It had an artistic atmosphere.
小题2:According to the passage, what do we know about Yeats's life?
A.Yeats founded the first Irish theater.
B.Yeats stuck to modern forms in his poetry.
C.Yeats began to produce his best works from the 1910s.
D.Yeats was not favored by the public until the 1923 Noble Prize.
小题3:What kind of feeling is expressed in W. H. Auden's lines?
A.EnvyB.SympathyC.EmptinessD.Admiration
小题4:What is the passage mainly about?
A.Yeats's literary achievementsB.Yeats's historical influence
C.Yeats's artistic ambitionD.Yeats's national honor

For two days after the advertisement first appeared, there was no  46. But then on the Saturday evening he had an enquiry (咨询).

Surrounded by rolling green hills dotted with horses and cows, the town of Waimea on Hawaii’s Big Island is a peaceful and friendly place. One afternoon, while staying with friends at their house there, my husband and I decided to go for a    36  along the many, mostly traffic-free, country lanes in the area.
We met a beautiful Golden Retriever. He seemed     37   friendly so we stopped to play with him,    38  a stick which he retrieved(取回) several times happily. When we    39   our walk, he followed us, and although I worried that he    40   be going too far from his home, I couldn’t deny that we were enjoying his    41  .
After about twenty minutes, we found ourselves walking along a dirt road in an unfamiliar area. One house, almost hidden by shrubbery(灌木林) and shaded by tall trees,seemed    42  strange. I felt an urge to be as far away from that place as possible.
Just then, the door to the house creaked open and five dogs    43  , barking and growling as they ran toward us. I felt   44  and couldn’t move. There was nowhere to    45   and no time to run..
All of a sudden, our new friend appeared between the dogs and us. He faced them – all five of them – growling and baring his teeth. I was    46   to see the attacking dogs stop in their tracks ten feet away from him. Our protector    47  them there while we escaped.    48   a safe distance, we looked back and saw the five dogs   49  back toward their house.
But the Golden Retriever was    50   in sight. I felt an ache in my   51  ; I missed our friend already. Instinctively, I knew he was not hurt. With a feeling of   52  , we made our way back to the house,   53  the whole way that we would see him again. But it was not to be.
When I told our friend about the encounter, her eyes flew wide open   54  she exclaimed, “It was an angel!”
To this day I have no   55  that a four-legged angel protected us.

Albert Szent-Gyorgyi was born in Budapest on September 16, 1893. In 1911 he entered his uncle’s laboratory where he studied until the outbreak of World War One, when he joined the army. He served on the Italian and Russian fronts, and he was permitted to leave the army in 1917 after being wounded in action. He completed his studies in Budapest before he went to Hamburg for a two-year course in physical chemistry. In 1920 he became an assistant at a university in Leiden, the Netherlands and from 1922 to 1926 he worked with H. J. Hamburger at the Physiology Institute, Groningen, the Netherlands.
In 1926, Szent-Gyorgyi was ready to end his own life after an embarrassing problem in his career. The scientist, thirty-two, had written a paper and handed it to his boss for approval to publish. His boss threw it in the dustbin. Concluding his life was a failure, the young researcher quit. Unable to support his wife and child, he sent them home to her parents. His final wish was to attend one last scientific meeting, to be among scientists, to have one last good time. So he went to the 1926 International Physiological Society Congress in Sweden.
Sitting in the audience, lost in self-pity, Szent-Gyorgyi listened to the president of the society, Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins, refer to the fine work of a researcher: Szent-Gyorgyi! After the speech, collecting his courage, he introduced himself to Hopkins. The great man invited the young scientist to Cambridge to do further work.
Szent-Gyorgyi’s life changed. He discovered the oxidation-preventing (防氧化的) action of vitamin C. He won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1937. He accounted for his success by saying that discovery is seeing what everyone else has seen but thinking what nobody else has thought.
小题1:Which of the following is the correct order of the events relevant to Szent-Gyorgyi?
a. finished his studies in Budapest
b. served during World War One
c. worked with Hopkins
d. studied in Hamburg
A.b, c, a, d B.b, a, d, cC.a, c, d, bD.a, b, d, c
小题2: Why did Szent-Gyorgyi want to end his own life in 1926?
A.His pride was hurt by his boss.
B.He was not satisfied with his paper.
C.He couldn’t support his family.
D.His boss stopped him attending a conference.

"A child is dying---out of breath!" I had just begun my working day in the city, when these words came through the radio of the police car I was driving. I turned on the red lights and siren(警笛)and drove off as fast as I could. "Just my luck!" I thought. I didn't know this city well and my first call of the day was a life-and-death sudden happening, several kilometers away.
I got to the house. A mother, filled with fear, handed me her baby, his face already blue. Was I too late? Dear me!
I did what had been taught to do in such a serious condition. A small thing flew out of the baby's mouth on to the floor. It was a button. Thank heaven! The holes in it let a little air through.
A doctor rushed into the room. He had with him an oxygen bag.
The child began to cry at the top of his voice, burned red and started to look for his mother. He was angry but was saved.
小题1:The writer of the story is _______.
A.a policeman B.a driver C.a doctor D.the boy's father
小题2:The writer turned on the red lights and siren in order to _____.
