从Mychildhoodandadolescencewereahappyoutpouringofenergy可以推断出作者的童年和少年时期是非常快乐的，因此答案为extremedelight。42.A有一天晚上，当别人谈到她的失明一事时，她的心受到了伤害，但别人并非有意说给她听的，所有此题填intended。43.D从下文的Pleasedon'tfeelsorryforme可推断出此题选pity。44.B当时在作者眼里，blind这个词隐含着一切负面的东西，因此选implied。45.C根据下文可看出，作者开始为生计发愁，所以快乐眼中所谓的快乐并未持续多久，因此此处应该是转折关系，所以选but。46.A作者选择了做兼职工作：教钢琴，但最终的结果是，这份工作不足于维持生计，因此此题选proved，意为“结果是”。47.C从下文mademedepressed.可以看出，作者的收入令她很泄气，因此选discouraging。48.B作者此时话锋一转：从Icouldlessenmyfrustrationinthebeautyoftheirpieces.可看出作者从钢琴音乐中找到了快乐，因此选grateful。49.D钢琴音乐的旋律使她的挫败感顿减，因此选frustration。50.A从下文很容易看出此题选change51.B她们的友谊日益加深，所以选progressed。52.C这位护士从她表面的快乐背后，了解到了她的伤悲，所以选behind。53.D护士鼓励她继续自己的音乐梦想，所以选keepup.54.D从下文可看出选ever。55.Cpractice此处意为“惯常的工作”。56.B作者询问上帝她活着的目的，因此选purpose。57.A从下文很容易看出此处应选arrive。58.A那些惊喜出乎作者的意料，所以选expectation。59.C从上下文可看出此处可选belief。60.B随着我慢慢习惯于祷告，我离上帝又近了一些，并最终走向永恒，因此此题选closer。三、阅读理解18.In1752,threeyearsaftertwoScotsmen,AlexanderWilsonandThomasMelville,fastenedthermometers(温度计)tokitestorecordthetemperatureofclouds,BenjaminFranklinmadehisfamousexperimentwithakite,astring,andakey.Franklinhopedtoshowthatnature'stremendousdisplaysofelectricityinlightningwerethesamethingastheelectricsparksscientistsofthedaywereproducingintheirlaboratories.Hebuiltasquarekitetowhichheattachedanironwire.Heflewthekitewithastring,andnearthebaseofthestringhetiedalargebrasskey.Thekiteroseintoadarkthundercloud,wheretheironwirepickedupelectricalcharges.Franklinnoticedthatthestrandsofthestring(绳串)werebeginningtostandupwithelectricity.Asrainwetthestring,itconducted(传导)moreelectricity.Standingintheshelterofashed,Franklincautiouslyreachedouthisfingertotouchthebrasskey.Aseriesofsparksjumpedfromthekeytohisfinger.Hethusprovedthatlightningandelectricityarethesame.Wenowknowthatthisexperimentwasadangerousone,forFranklinmighthavebeenkilledbylighting.66.Thebesttitleforthispassageis________.A.TheDiscoveryofElectricityB.ThekiteandScienceC.Franklin'sExperimentwithLightningD.Franklin,aGreatScientist67.Accordingtothepassage,BenjaminFranklin________.A.recordedthetemperatureofcloudsB.waskilledbyaboltoflightningC.provedthatlightningcanbecontrolledbymanD.provedthatlightningandelectricityhavethesamecharacteristic68.
