handsome”，故此處應是母親也欣然同意，認為楓樹很漂亮(pretty)。distinctive“與眾不同的”；fragrant“芳香的”。2A根據(jù)上文的“Like many other parents, mine were hard to”，下文的“so I figured this was a great opportunity to get them something”以及接下來介紹的作者兄弟姊妹幾人為父母買禮物的內(nèi)容可知，此處指作者覺得給父母買東西是很難的，故選shop“購物”。3B根據(jù)上文的“Dad mentioned he'd always wanted a Crimson King Maple Tree for the yard.”及下文介紹的為父母買禮物的內(nèi)容可知，此處指作者認為這是一個給父母買他們欣賞的東西的好機會。deserve“值得，應得”；appreciate“感激，欣賞”；advertise“為做廣告”；imagine“想象”。4C根據(jù)下文的“but all of my siblings(兄弟姊妹)agreed to give some money to buy the trees”可知，作者在上班時查看了一下楓樹的價格(price)，認為它的價格比自己能支付得起(afford)的還要高一點。express“快遞”。5A參見上題解析。6C從下文作者聯(lián)合其姑姑來幫忙實施這個計劃以及計劃具體實施的內(nèi)容可知，作者他們想給父母一個驚喜(surprise)。assist“幫助，協(xié)助”。7B根據(jù)上下文語境及句中的“In northern Ohio, you don't plant maple trees at Christmas”“a special Christmas in October before the ground”可知，作者他們決定在土地上凍之前讓父母度過一個特別的圣誕節(jié)。freeze“結冰”符合語境。soften“變軟，軟化”。8A根據(jù)上下文語境可知，作者詢問姑姑是否可以幫忙實施這個“騙局(trick)”。9A根據(jù)上下文語境可知，作者的姑姑提前(in advance)給作者的父母打電話說她會在周日來拜訪。in time“及時”；by accident“意外地”；on purpose“故意地”。10B根據(jù)下文的“planning a big holiday turkey dinner”可知，隨后，作者的姊妹和嫂子(或弟媳)行動起來。go into action“行動起來”符合語境。go into service“投入使用”；go into effect“生效”；go into production“投產(chǎn)”。11D根據(jù)語境可知，作者和親人們在選定的(chosen)那個周日聚到自己家里。regular“慣常的，有規(guī)律的”。12B根據(jù)下文的“the trees into a truck”可知，作者他們把樹裝上(loaded)卡車。transport“運輸，運送”；transplant“移植”。13A根據(jù)下文的“as Santa

up“出現(xiàn)”；draw in“(白天變得)漸短”。17C根據(jù)上文的“In northern Ohio, you don't plant maple trees at Christmas so we decided to.with a special Christmas in October”可知，作者他們在十月份的時候已經(jīng)為父母送上了一份特別的圣誕節(jié)禮物，而在真正的圣誕節(jié)到來的時候，他們又不能空手去拜訪自己的父母，故作者的父母那年是收到了雙份的(double)圣誕節(jié)禮物。additional“額外的”。18D根據(jù)上下文語境可知，時隔幾乎半個世紀之后，當作者看到那些高大、漂亮的楓樹(trees)時依然(still)會面帶微笑地駛過那個農(nóng)場。19B參見上題解析。20B作者看著那些楓樹時，會想起自己多年前在特別的圣誕節(jié)送給父母特別的禮物(gift)。上文中的“presents that year”亦是關鍵提示。donation“捐贈物”；greeting“問候”。四、短文改錯。Last week，I take part in the Cultural Exchange Week.I enjoyed myself in England.I visited the city museum and several place of interest，which made me have better understanding of the English society，culture and history.What's more，I was luckily enough to meet my pen friend Tom there.I stayed at his home.And I'll never forget the days when we spent together.When I left England，he offered to me a dictionary for a gift.It's of great help for me to learn English.I will make full use of them and learn English good.I hope Tom will come to China when it's convenience for him!【答案】Last week，I part in the Cultural Exchange Week.I enjoyed myself in England.I visited the city museum and several of interest，which made me have better understanding of the English society，culture and history.What's more，I was enough to meet my pen friend Tom there.I stayed at his home.And I'll never forget the days 或 we spent together.When I left England，he offered me a dictionary a gift.It's of great help for me to learn English.I will make full use of and learn English .I hope Tom will come to China when it's for him!第一處：考查動詞的時態(tài)。根據(jù)時間狀語“l(fā)ast week”可知，此處敘述的是過去的事情，應用一般過去時。故將take改為took。第二處：考查名詞的復數(shù)。place of interest意為“名勝古跡”，其中place是可數(shù)名詞，前面有several修飾，應用其復數(shù)形式。故將place改為places。第三處：考查冠詞。have a better understanding of.為固定結構，意為“對有更好的了解”。故在better之前加a。第四處：考查形容詞。luckily是副詞，意為“幸運地”，用來修飾動詞或者形容詞。此處應用形容詞作表語。故將luckily改為lucky。第五處：考查定語從句。分析句子結構可知，從句“we spent together”中缺少賓語，補充完整是：we spent the days together。when引導定語從句時作時間狀語。因此應用關系代詞引導該定語從句，在從句中作賓語，故可將when改為that/which；當關系代詞在定語從句中作賓語時，可以省略，故也可去掉when。第六處：考查介詞。動詞offer是及物動詞，可直接接賓語。offer sb.sth.意為“給某人提供某物”，不需要加介詞。故去掉to。第七處：考查介詞。介詞for通常后接對象，意為“為，給，對而言”；as作介詞時，意為“作為，以身份”。此處指他給了“我”一本字典作為禮物。故將for改為as。第八處：考查人稱代詞。根據(jù)語境可知，此處應用it指代上文中提到的a dictionary，表示單數(shù)概念。故將them改為it。第九處：考查副詞。此處應用副詞修飾動詞learn，表示學好英語。故將good改為well。第十處：考查形容詞。此處應用形容詞作表語。it's convenient for sb.為固定句型，意為“對某人來說很方便”。故將convenience改為convenient。11
