(1)rodd有幸去亲自看到圣诞老人，没想到见到时由于太过专注礼物而浪费一次机会。从此，他懂得了做事情要专注于目的，不能被别的东西所引诱。1. a他一路上遇到的一切都是他无法想象的。come across“偶然发现；遇见 ”，符合题意。come through“经历(苦难而脱险), 获得成功”；get through“达到(目的), 完成(任务), 通过(议案)”。2. b根据全文最后一句the long white beard and the soft red suit可知答案。3. c第三段的第一句from that day on, every time rodd saw a toy有提示。4. d第一段就提到他来时非常兴奋，此时见到圣诞老人突然降临，还带来很多梦想中的礼物，就更加令他兴奋不已了。annoying “令人心烦的”；frightening“吓人的”；surprising “令人惊奇的”； exciting“令人兴奋的”。5. brodd朝自行车走去，这是一辆他常常梦想得到的自行车。根据句意，我们可知选b项。still“仍然”；always“常常，总是”；ever“永远，曾经”；never“从未，决不”。6. arodd来的目的就是来看圣诞老人的。只关注自行车，没有看清圣诞老人，结果就大哭大闹，可见rodd确实浪费了这一次好机会。waste“浪费”；pass“传递”；lack“缺少”； spend“度过”。7. c在看圣诞老人时，rodd只注意玩具，忽视了重要的目的。可见，从那次之后，他会吸取教训，关注重要的东西。interest“兴趣”； necessity“必要”；importance“重要性”；usage“用途”。8. d从下文可知他们看重的礼物只是可以果腹的一块面包，可见其贫穷。coldness“冷酷”；excitement“兴奋”； happiness“幸福”；poverty“贫穷”。9. c注意双重否定。多年没有听到别人对他说“我爱你”的痛苦。10. a给那些不幸的人带来欢乐。smile“欢笑”；tear“泪水”；doubt“怀疑”；glare“闪耀”。11. b上一句说明他成功地改变了镇里的环境。此句同样用双重否定表明人们对他表示感谢。cheerful“欢乐的”；grateful“感恩的”； delighted“高兴的”； satisfied“满足的”。12. b下文中有他睁开眼睛，看到白胡子红衣服的圣诞老人。walk“步行”；sleep“睡觉”； play“玩耍”； laugh“大笑”。(2)读过鲁迅先生的社戏一文的读者都知道江南的小雨是多么的有诗情画意。本文与社戏有着异曲同工之妙。1. a此题较难。根据第一句好像应该是“下雨”，但是仔细阅读空后but的转折句“一连7到8天非常潮湿”，说明“没有真正的下雨，而是雨蒙蒙的，要下雨的样子”。这与接下来对上海居民的感受描写是一致的。2. c注意前面的who usually do not feel the need for rain，这些不需要雨水的人，当然觉得外面雨蒙蒙的，只能待在家里是非常bored “烦人”的。disappointed“失望的”。3. b上一句描写的是，这样雨蒙蒙的日子，看不到好的景色；本句又谈到，汽车开过，溅你一身泥浆。可见是worse still “更糟的是”。 meanwhile“同时”； as a result“结果”。4. b在雨蒙蒙的日子，汽车开过，能溅到身上的不是水就是mud “泥浆”。 5. a固定搭配attend school/a meeting“上学，开会”。 apply to“申请”。6. d固定搭配sit up late into the night“熬夜”。7. d表示雨点against“击打”窗户。8. a作者接下来描写的是与伙伴去看戏，半夜回家时遇到雨，伙伴唱歌的欢乐情境。所以用enjoyed“享受”。9. b注意宾语a small boat，当然是rowed“划”船去看戏。10. c既然是戏，就是人在现场performance “表演”。11. d固定搭配be/get caught in a rain“困在雨中”。12. c对应伙伴在歌唱，自己觉得雨点打在雨篷上是一种pleasant “欢乐”的声音。(3)专家用了一个装石子的
