)27.A.ordering B.cooking

C.eating

D.delivering【答案】C

【解析】此处主要考查动词辨义及其习惯用法,B、C两个选项强调“生活能力”,而A、D两个选项则强调“交际能力”,根据空格后面takingataxi的意思和“常识”,D项也可以排除,而orderfood为常见搭配,故此选ordering。(

)28.A.interesting B.stressful

C.important

D.useful【答案】B

【解析】此处主要考查形容词辨义及其用法,A、C、D三个选项都是“褒义词”,而与空格前的内容不相符,此处对于一个初到他乡、“人生地不熟”的外国人来讲orderingfood或者takingataxi无疑还是比较“吃力和困难的”(有令人感觉不快之感,带有“贬义”色彩),而B选项“有压力的”正有此意,故此选stressful。(

)29.A.boss B.family

C.driver

D.teacher

)31.A.Hopefully B.Finally

C.Usually

D.Helpfully【答案】B

【解析】此处考查副词辨义及其用法,由于“Inevergaveup”的“学习态度和钻研精神”,终于“功夫不负有心人”,故此选择B项finally。(

)32.A.part B.chance

C.result

D.way(

)33.A.hurt B.introduced

C.met

D.saved【答案】D

【解析】此处考查名词辨义及其用法,虽然此处各选项都可以,但是这个地方“发现的”应该是“方法(way)”,故此选择D项way。【答案】C

【解析】此处考查动词辨义及其用法,根据选项A“伤害、伤到”(我无意做这种事情)、B“将某人介绍给……认识”(缺少第三者)、D“拯救”(对方并没有遭遇不幸或生命危险),故此选择C项met符合题意,让我“命运发生改变”。(

)34.A.words B.manners

C.skills

D.stories【答案】A

【解析】此处考查名词辨义及其用法,根据各选项意思,我的老师“传授给我的”应该是“歌词(words)”,而不是“方式、方法(manners)”,也不是“技能、技巧(skills)”,和“故事、经历(stories)”,故此选择A项words符合题意。(

)35.A.inorder B.inpublic

C.asusual D.aswell【答案】D
