When I was in seventh grade, I was a candy striper(志愿护士长)at a local hospital in my town. Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Gillespiel He never had any 1 昏迷)., and nobody seemed to care about his 2 I spent many days there holding his hand and talking to him, 3 anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine, 4 he responded with only a (n) 5 squeeze of my hand. Mr. Gillespie was in a coma(
I left for a week to vacation with my parents, and when I came back, Mr. Gillespie was 6 . I didn't have the 7 to ask any of the nurses where he was, for fear they might 8 me he had died.
Several 9 later, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a familiar face. When I 10 who it was,my eyes filled with tears. He was 11 ! I got up the nerve to ask him if his name was Mr. Gillespie, With a (n) 12 look on his face, he replied yes. I 13 how I knew him,and that I had spent many hours talking with him in the hospital. His eyes welled up with tears, and he gave me the warmest hug I had ever 14 .
He began to tell me how, 15 he lay there comatose,he could hear me talking to him and could 16 me holding his hand the whole time. Mr. Gillespie 17 believed that it was my voice and 18 that had kept him alive.
Although I haven't 19 him since, he fills my heart with 20 every day. I know that I made a difference between his life and his death.
1. A. visitors B. relatives C. patients D. friends
答案:A 指导:根据never和nobody seemed to care about可知没有人去医院探望他。
B项表示“亲戚”,一个人不可能没有亲戚,所以此项不恰当;
C项意为“病人”,Mr.Gillespie本身就是病人,因此C项显然不正确;根据常识可知由于种种原因朋友不一定去看望病人,所以D项不恰当。
2. A. interest B. requirement C. condition D. thought
答案:C 指导:Mr.Gillespie病情严重,昏迷不醒,但好像没有人关心他的“状况”。
interest"兴趣;爱好”,文中没有信息支持,所以A项错误;由于病人严重昏迷,不会有什么“要求”、“想法”,所以可将B、D两项排除。
3. A. talking about B. looking for
C. pointing out D. helping with
答案:D 指导:作者是护士助手,所以应该“帮助”做必要的事情。A、B、C三项分别表示“谈论”、“寻找”、“指出”,显然与作者的身份不符。
4. A. so that B. even though C. soon after D. just as
答案:B 指导:even though"即使”,根据后面"Mr.Gillespie was in a coma(昏迷).”可知此处表示让步。 A项表示“以便”,用在此处逻辑关系不合理;C项表示“此后不久”,如果选择此项,意味着他在同作者成为朋友之前很
正常,显然不正确;D项表示“正如”,前后意思不通顺。
5. A. occasional B. tight C. satisfactory D. warm
答案:A 指导:根据下一句可推测病人在昏迷状态下“偶尔”握一下作者的手。
B项表示“紧紧的”,病情严重的人应该是软弱无力;C、D两项分别表示“令人满意的”“温暖的”,带有说话人强烈的感情色彩,但结合病情可将这两项排除。
6. A. dead B. mad C. gone D.excited
答案:C 指导:作者度假回来后发现病人不在了。
dead"死”,与下文两人重逢矛盾;mad"疯的”,脱离实际;excited"兴奋的”,下一句提到作者没有问病人在何处,可见二人根本没有见面。
7. A. right B. chance C. nerve D. time
答案:C 指导:作者恐怕护士会说出病人已经死亡的消息,所以不敢打听。第四段“I got up the nerve to...”也提供了暗示。right"权力”,与作者身份不符;B、D两项分别表示“机会…‘时间”,与所给语境不符。
8. A. cheat B. tell C. remind D. warn
答案:B 指导:作者担心护士“告诉”自己病人已经死亡的消息。护士没有必要“欺骗”助手,所以A项错误;C项意为“提醒”,如果选择此项,意味着作者已经知道了病人死亡的消息,这与下文两人相见矛盾;wam"警告”,与护士的身份不符。
9. A. days B. weeks C. months D. years
答案:D 指导:根据第一段第一句“When l was in seventh grade..”可知作者当时上七年级,再结合后面"whenlwas
a junjor in high schoo1...”可推测是几年时间。
10. A. realized B. wondered C. heard D. asked
答案:A 指导:作者看到了一张熟悉的面孔,才“意识到”他是谁。
B、D两项分别表示“想知道”、“问”,与后面"myeyes filled withtears”矛盾;根据"whenlnoticedafamiliarface"可知作者看到了对方而不是听到了声音,所以C项错误。
11. A. great B. alive C. successful D. lucky
答案:B 指导:作者原以为再也见不到Mr.Gillespie了,想不到他还“活着”。倒数第二段that had kept himalive也提供了暗示。
great"伟大的”,Mr.Gillespie只是一位普通病人,文中没有提到他有任何与众不同之处;successful"成功的”,文中没有信息支持;lucky"幸运的”,与所给语境不符。
12. A. happy B. uncertain C. nervous D. proud
答案:B 指导:Mr.Gillespie刚一开始没有认出作者是谁,所以当一位陌生人说出自己的名字时,自然会满腹狐疑。happy"幸福的”,不合常理;nervous"紧张的”,作者当时只是一名稚气未脱的学生,因此他没有必要感到紧张;proud“自豪的”,根据常识可判断此项错误。
13. A. apologized B. remembered
C. explained D. admitted
答案:C 指导:作者从对方的表情看出他没有认出自己,所以要“解释”原因。apologized"道歉”,作者没有做错任何事情,不必道歉;remembered"记得”,与所给语境不符;admitted"承认”,言外之意是作者做了不应该做的事情,显然不正确。
14. A. dreamed B. shown C. wanted D. received
答案:D 指导:作者“接受”了对方的拥抱。
A、C两项表明作者渴望对方给予热情的拥抱,显然不恰当;shown"展现”,是对方拥抱作者,而不是作者主动拥抱对方。
15. A. because B. if C. unless D. as
答案:D 指导:当他昏迷不醒的时候。
前三项分别表示“因为”“如果”“除非”,逻辑关系不合理。
16. A. notice B. feel C. imagine D. appreciate
答案:B 指导:Mr.Gillespie在昏迷中“感觉到”有人在一直握着他的手。A、C、D三项分别表示“注意到…‘想像”“感激”,结合他的病情可知这三项不正确。
17. A. hardly B. immediately C. firmly D. wrongly
答案:C 指导:firml/‘坚定地”,Mr.Gillespie认为正是由于作者的帮助,他的病情才得以好转。hardly"几乎不”,无法表达出病人对作者的感激之情;immediately"立即”,不合情理;wrongly"错误地”,有悖于病人的初衷。
18. A. humour B. encouragement
C. touth D. treatment
答案:C 指导:根据第二段第一句“I spent many days there holding his hand and talking to him...”可知是作者的“抚摸”,因为my voice与talking to him对应,touch与holding hishand对应。
humour"幽默”,作者当时在照顾一位昏迷不醒的病人,不可能给他说幽默的话;encouragement“鼓励”,文中没有信息支持;treatment"治疗”,作者只是护士助手,没有给病人治疗。
19. A. forgotten B. called C. missed D. seen
答案:D 指导:作者从那以后再也没有“见到”过他。forgotten"忘记”,如果选择此项,意味着作者在加油站遇到他之前把他忘记了,显然错误;called"打电话”,作者以前也没有给他打过电话;missed"想念”,作者对他一直念念不忘。
20. A. joy B. regret C. respect D. sympathy
答案:A 指导:作者没有想到自己的点滴恩惠竟然挽救了一个人的生命,自然会感到很“高兴”。后三项分别表示“遗憾”“尊敬”“同情”,逻辑关系不合理。
