“say!” a smile slipped out from his lips. “do you rememberno, of course you wouldnt. it probably didnt make the impression on you as it did on me.”i hardly dared speak. “remember what?”“i used to think of that day a lot in pow camp(战俘营), when things werent too good. do you remember the day we flew the kites?”1. mrs. patrick was laughing guiltily because she thought.a. she was too old to fly kitesb. her husband would make fun of herc. she should have been doing her housework thend. her girls werent supposed to play the boys game2. by“we were all beside ourselves”, the writer means that they all .a. felt confusedb. went wild with joyc. looked ond. forgot their fights3. what did the writer think after the kite-flying?

a. china lacks wind and solar energy.b. china is the leader of the low-carbon market.2c. high-speed trains are a low-carbon development.d. palm oil is made at the cost of valuable forests.3. to fully develop the low-carbon markets, governments can.a. cut public expensesb. forbid carbon emissionsc. develop public resourcesd. encourage energy conservation4. we can learn from the last paragraph that businesses have many chances to.a. develop sustainable productsb. explore new natural resourcesc. make full use of natural resourcesd. deal with the major challenge5. what is the main purpose of the passage? a. to introduce a new business model.b. to compare two business models.c. to predict a change of the global market.d. to advocate sustainable development.【参考答案】72.1-5 bcdad 【2015高考复习】完形填空it was unusually quiet in the emergency room on december 25.i didnt think there would be any_1_，sighing about having to work on christmas.just then five bodies_2_at my desk，a pale woman and four children.“are you all_3_？”i asked.“yes，” she said weakly and lowered her head.but when it came to_4_of their problems，things got a little uncertain.two of the children had headaches，two children had earaches，_5_only one could tell me which ear was affected.the_6_complained of a cough but seemed to work to produce it.i didnt say anything but_7_that it might he a little while_8_a doctor could see her.she responded，“_9_your time；its warm in here.”then，i checked their chart.no addressthey were_10_.the waiting room was warm.i went back to the nurses station and mentioned we had a homeless_11_in the waiting room.the nurses，complaining of_12_on christmas，turned to sympathy for a family just trying to get_13_on christmas.the team went into action，much as we do when theres a_14_emergency.but this was a christmas emergency.we were all_15_a free meal on christmas day，so we took back that meal and prepared a big dinner for our_16_.we needed presents.we_17_from different departments candies，fruits and other things_18_that could be presents.as seriously as we met the_19_needs of the patients，our team worked to meet the needs of a family who just wanted to be warm on christmas.later，as the family walked to the door to_20_，the fouryearold boy came running back，gave me a hug and whispered，“thanks for being our angels today.”【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。圣诞夜，当我们这些护士为还要继续工作而抱怨时，一家五口来急诊。当我们了解情况后，纷纷伸出援助之手，让无家可归的一家人度过了一个温暖的圣诞节。1.a.customersbpatientscworkersdtourists解析customer意为“顾客”；patient意为“病人”；worker意为“工人”；tourist意为“游客”。根据下文内容可知，此处是医院，“我”想着圣诞节应该不会再有病人了。答案b2a.showed upbtook inccame outdlooked on解析show up意为“出现”；take in意为“吸收；欺骗”；come out意为“出版；结果是”；look on意为“旁观”。根据上下文内容可知，是五个人出现在“我”的办公桌前。答案a3a.eagerbhungrycsickdwarm解析由语境可知，此处是在医院，因此我询问他们是不是都病了。答案c4a.descriptionsbcommentscinstructionsdresults解析description意为“描述”；comment意为“评论”；instruction意为 “说明”；result意为“结果；成绩”。由语境可知，当他们开始描述他们的病情时，事情就有点让人摸不着头脑了。答案a5a.sobforcthusdbut解析由语境可知，两个孩子说头疼，两个孩子说耳朵疼，但只有一个能告诉“我”是哪只耳朵疼。这里表示一种转折关系。答案d6a.motherbchildrencnursesddoctor解析根据上文内容可知，母子共五人来看病，其中四个孩子都说了自己的问题，只剩下母亲没有说了，因此是孩子的母亲说自己咳嗽了。答案a7a.answeredbimaginedcexplaineddanalysed解析answer意为“回答”；imagine意为“想象”；explain意为“解释”；analyse意为“分析”。由语境可知，“我”也没说什么，只是解释说，过会儿医生才会来给她检查。答案c8a.afterbsincecbeforedwhen解析由语境可知，在医生来之前还得有一会儿。答案c9a.makebtakeccaredspend解析make意为“使得；形成”；take意为“拿；取”；care意为“在意”；spend意为“度过”。由语境可知，她回答说：“不着急，这里挺暖和的。”take ones time意为“不着急”，符合语境。答案b10a.lonelybgreedyccleverdhomeless解析lonely意为“孤独的”；greedy意为“贪婪的”；clever意为“聪明的”；homeless意为“无家可归的”。由语境可知，“我”查了下他们的登记表，但登记表上没有写地址，因此他们是无家可归的。答案d11a.familybholidaycwomandchristmas解析由语境可知，回到护士室，“我”讲述了候诊室里这无家可归的一家子人的事。答案a12a.oper
