  I was six when I joined my father and two elder brothers at sunrise in the fields of Eufaula, Okla.  1   the time I was eight, I was helping Dad fix up old furniture.He gave me a cent for every nail I   2   out of old boards.

  I got my first   3   job, at JM’s Restaurant in town, when I was 12.My main responsibilities(职责)were   4   tables and washing dishes,   5   sometimes I helped cook.

  Every day after school I would   6   to JM’s and work until ten.Even on Saturdays I   7   from two until eleven.At that age it was difficult going to work and   8   my friends run off to swim or play.I didn’t necessarily like work, but I loved what working   9   me to have.Because of my   10   I was always the one buying when my friends and I went to the local Tastee Freez.This made me   11  

  Words that I was trust-worthy and hard-working   12   around town.A local clothing store offered me credit(赊账)  13   I was only in seventh grade.I immediately   14   a $68 sports coat and a $22 pair of shoes.I was   15   only 65 cents an hour, and I already owed the storekeeper $90!So I learned   16   the danger of easy credit.I paid it   17   as soon as I could.

  My first job taught me self-control, responsibility and brought me a   18   of personal satisfaction few of my friends had experienced.As my father,   19   worked three jobs once told me, “If you   20   sacrifice(奉献)and responsibility, there are not many things in life you can’t have.” How right he was.

答案:1.D;2.A;3.B;4.C;5.C;6.A;7.B;8.C;9.D;10.D;11.A;12.B;13.A;14.C;15.B;16.D;17.D;18.B;19.C;20.A;
解析:

(1)

by表示“不迟于”。不到8岁时,我就帮助爸爸修理旧家具。before“在……之前”,与前一句话不相符;within“在……之间”,指到8岁那一年内;from常与to连用,表示“从……到……”。

(2)

根据宾语old boards可判断出,是从旧木板上拔出钉子。每从旧木板上拔出一个钉子,父亲给我一分钱。

(3)

real表示“真正的”。作者12岁前在家中帮助父亲工作,他认为那不是“真正的”工作。在12岁时,他在JM’s Restaurant开始的工作,才算是“真正的”工作。

(4)

clear tables表示“擦桌子”。根据下文的“wash dishes”可确定答案,在饭店里,招待员的工作是擦桌子和洗盘子。sweep表示“擦(地板)”;pack表示“包装”;empty表示“使成为空的”。

(5)

clear tables and wash dishes与help cook是两种不同的工作,它们之间是转折关系。

(6)

head表示“(向特定的方向)出发”。每天“我”放学后赶往JM’s,一直工作到10点钟。return表示“回到”,只有当作者住在饭店里时,才会从学校回到饭店。change表示“改变”;move表示“移动”。

(7)

根据上文内容不难判断出即使在星期六,作者也要从两点工作到11点。

(8)

watch表示“注视”。12岁正是贪玩的年龄,可是,作者不得不去工作。watch一词描写出作者看到自己的朋友出外旅游或游玩时的羡慕之情。

(9)

allow表示“允许”。“我”并不是真的喜欢工作,而是喜欢因工作而获得的东西。

(10)

根据上文的内容可以判断出,由于作者的劳动赚了钱才可能使他总是和朋友一起去当地Tastee Freeze时成为惟一买东西的人。

(11)

proud表示“骄傲的”。在伙伴面前买各种东西自然会感到骄傲。

(12)

get around表示“到达”。“我”诚实勤劳的话语传遍了整个小镇。run around表示“围……跑”;fly around表示“围……飞”;carry作不及物动词时意思是“携带”。

(13)

although表示“虽然”,引导让步状语从句。虽然我还是一个七年级的学生,当地一家布店却允许我赊账。

(14)

charge表示“把……记入账簿”。从上文可以看出当地一家布店允许作者赊账,他马上赊了一件价值68美元的运动衫和一双价值22美元的鞋子。borrow指“借钱”。

(15)

make后接表示“钱”意为“赚钱”。make only 65 cents an hour表示“每小时只赚65美分”。

(16)

early在此表示“年龄小”。作者年龄很小时就被允许赊账,而且已经赊了90美元的账,而他每小时的工资只有65美分,所以他在年龄很小时就懂得了赊账的危险性。

(17)

pay off表示“还清(债务)”。“我”尽快还清了这笔钱。

(18)

level表示“水平”。“我”的工作教给“我”自我控制、有责任心,使“我”感到了朋友们没有感到过的那种满足。

(19)

这是一个非限制性定语从句。关系代词who代替my father,在定语从句中作主语。

(20)

understand表示“懂得”。如果你懂得奉献和负责任,在你的一生中就没有多少你不能得到的东西。demand表示“需要”;offer表示“提供”;fear表示“害怕”。

  The UN Security Council has yet to   13   its position clear.But UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan   14   say that“the UN does not support a death penalty.”

  Besides waiting for a trial of Saddam, the world wants to see   15   the US and Britain can find the   16   weapons they gave as the   17   for the war in Iraq.Asked if Saddam's capture(捕获)could   18   a breakthrough(突破)in the hunt for the weapons of mass destruction, British Prime Minister Tony Blair said, “  19   obviously that possibility there.But I think we should   20   what we're doing in Iraq.”
