I work as a volunteer(志愿者)for an organization that helps the poor in Haiti. Recently I took my son Barrett there for a week, hoping to   16   him.

Before setting out. I told Barrett this trip would be tiring and   17  . For the first two days, he said almost nothing. I worried the trip was too   18   for a 17-year-old. Then, on day three, as we were   19   over high rocky mountains, he turned to me and grinned(咧嘴笑), “Pretty hard. ”

After that there was no turning back. A five-year-old girl, wearing a dress several sizes

  20   large and broken shoes, followed Barrett around, mesmerized(着迷). He couldn’t stop

  21  . Later he said   22  . “I wish I could speak French.” I was   23   -this from a boy who hated and   24   French classes throughout school.

Usually silent, he   25   Gaby, our host, and kept asking questions about the country and its people. He blossomed(活泼起来).

   26  , the moment that really took   27   breath away occurred in a village deep in the mountains. I was   28   a woman villager for an article. 135 centimeters tall, she was small in figure but strong in   29  . Through determination, she had learned to read and write, and   30   to become part of the leadership of the   31  .

Learning her story. Barrett was as   32   as I by this tiny woman’s achievements. His eyes were wet and there was a   33   of love and respect on his face. He had finally understood the importance of my work.

When leaving for home, Barrett even offered to stay   34   as a volunteer. My insides suddenly felt struck. This   35   achieved all I’d expected. Soon he will celebrate his 18th birthday. He’ll be a man.

解析:

16.D.本题需要从全文角度才能更好的做出判断.首先,作者要带孩子去的地方是偏僻穷困的地方,再从Barrett的表现和最后一段作者认为完全达到了此行的目的----促进了孩子的成长.所以应该是教育孩子.

17.A.rough:艰苦的,  与tiring并列,修饰 trip,从上下文中能看出这个意思

18.B.too much(for someone): (对于某人而言)很不合适, 做不了, 受不了.

19. C. 上文已经说明了这次旅行会很幸苦, 已经到了第三天, 不可能再run了; B也不合适, 因为这时Barrett回头笑着说很幸苦, 所以应该是在进行中, 不是向下看的时候. 而move和climb相比,后者更强调费尽,努力地;所以climbing更符合此时的情景.

20. A. too在这里是程度副词, 这件衣服穿在小姑娘身上太大了.

21. D. 从上下文能看出Barrett看到这个小姑娘在他身边很着迷的样子, 不禁笑了, 想与她交流. 如果是其他选项, 下文中就应该出现喊叫或者开玩笑的具体内容才符合文章的逻辑,所以其他选项不合适.

22.B.一方面是上文中体现他想与小姑娘交流, 还有从本段最后可以看出Barrett很讨厌学习法语,可以看出应该是遗憾的说: 我希望我会说法语.

23.D.从下文hated…throughout school可看出Barrett变化之大,所以作者这时的心情应该是惊讶.

24. C. hated是信息词,and表示并列或者递进, 所以A, B 都不对. Call off指取消,和时间状语throughout school不搭配.

25. A. 从本句kept asking…和下句的he blossomed…可知应该选A. befriend对待…如朋友,协助, 照顾; disregard不理, 忽视; avoid避免; recognize认出.

26. D. 文章到这里进入本文的最高潮: 真正让作者很吃惊 (take one’s breath away) 的发生在深山中的一个小村子. 所以应该是转折.

27. B. 在倒数第二段作者专门交待了Barrett对此事的感受 (Barrett was as…as I), 所以这里只是讲”我”的感受.

28. B. 其他选项的含义放在这里都不合适, 只能是为一篇文章而采访她.

29. C从下一句中的though determination, 可以知道the woman villager意志坚强strong in mind.

30. B. struggle: to try extremely hard to achieve something, even though it is very difficult. 所以符合上文的strong in mind/through determination.

31.A.此段的第一句话交待了事件发生的地点是in village.

32. D. touched: 感动.

33. A. combination: 结合, 混合; composition: (某物的) 组成物质或者成分, (人工的) 合成物; connection: 连接.

34. B. stay behind: to remain in a place rather than leave留下来.

35. D. 首尾呼应.
