In each case, the _7_ of the glass of water doesnt change, but the _8_ I hold it, the heavier it bees. Why？”Lost in _9_， all the students kept silent and listened to the professor carefully.“Our stresses and _10_ in life are like that glass of water.

Fall is not just about the _18_ of change, but also appreciating what will soon be _19_. Go _20_ this fall. Enjoy the leaves not because they are turning beautiful deep shades of orange and red, but because there will soon be no leaves in those branches at all.語篇解讀：本文是一篇夾敘夾議文?！拔摇睆臎]有秋天的奧斯汀來到了羅切斯特市，為能在這里經(jīng)歷真正的秋天而興奮不已。在秋天，天氣逐漸變得寒冷，枯葉凋零，日照時間逐漸變短。一切都在變化著，去戶外欣賞秋天是明智的選擇。1A.interested in Bexposed toCashamed of Dprepared for 解析：選D“我”從沒有秋天的奧斯汀來到了羅切斯特市?！拔摇睘槟芙?jīng)歷真正的北方的秋天而興奮不已。但是，這里的十月卻如十二月的圣誕節(jié)時那樣寒冷，“我”沒有準(zhǔn)備好。be prepared for“為做好準(zhǔn)備”，符合語境。be interested in“對感興趣”；be exposed to“暴露于”；be ashamed of“為感到羞愧”。2A.accident BpossibilityCshock Dmotivation解析：選C根據(jù)上文中的“But, I wasnt _1_ it to feel like”可知，此處指不管這種震驚。shock“震驚”，符合語境。accident“事故”；possibility“可能性”；motivation“動機”。3A.beyond BagainstCfor Dafter解析：選A根據(jù)該句中的“the adjustment period that Im not entirely sure”，并結(jié)合第一段所描述的“我”對這里的氣溫如圣誕節(jié)時那樣寒冷感到不知所措的情況可以判斷，“我”不能完全確信自己能跨越這個調(diào)整期。beyond“超過，越過”，符合語境。4A.rare BrealChard Dstrange解析：選B根據(jù)后一句中的“By real”可知，“我”為此處有真正的秋天而感到欣慰。real“真正的”，符合語境。rare“罕見的，稀有的”；hard“艱難的”；strange“奇怪的”。5A.take in Bpick upCcall back Drefer to解析：選D通過說“真正的”，“我”指的是一個差別性明顯的季節(jié)天氣的轉(zhuǎn)變和周圍世界的視覺改變。refer to“提到，說起”，符合語境。take in“吸收，欺騙”；pick up“撿起，(偶然)學(xué)會”；call back“回電話”。6A.shift BconclusionCimprovement Dexperience解析：選A參見上題解析。shift意為“轉(zhuǎn)變”，符合語境。conclusion“結(jié)論”；improvement“提高”；experience“經(jīng)歷，經(jīng)驗”。7A.spoil BkeepCturn Davoid解析：選C此處描述了秋天的情景：樹葉變了顏色，經(jīng)常下雨，空氣幾乎總是又冷又干燥。turn“改變，變成”，符合語境。spoil“損壞，寵壞，變壞，腐敗”；keep“保持”；avoid“避免”。8A.cold BwarmChot Dcozy解析：選A參見上題解析。cold“冷的”，符合語境。cozy“溫暖舒適的”。9A.prevents BexpectsCurges Dsuspects解析：選C刮來的陣陣微風(fēng)催促“我”快點進入室內(nèi)。urge“敦促，促使”，符合語境。prevent“阻止”；expect“期望，盼望”；suspect“懷疑，不信任，猜想”。10A.grateful BcreativeCconsiderate Dfortable解析：選D在羅切斯特市，秋天相當(dāng)冷，在戶外很難讓人感覺舒適。fortable“舒適的”，符合語境。grateful“感謝的”；creative“有創(chuàng)造力的”；considerate“考慮周到的”。11A.luckily BactuallyChelpfully Dinstantly解析：選B這里不是“不炎熱”，而實際上是相當(dāng)冷。actually“事實上，實際上”，符合語境。luckily“幸運地”；helpfully“有幫助地”；instantly“立刻，馬上”。12A.terrible BcasualCunpleasant Dvaluable解析：選D根據(jù)語境可知，即便如此，“我”還是認(rèn)為在這個季節(jié)去戶外度過的時光可能要比夏季的更有價值。valuable“有價值的，珍貴的”，符合語境。terrible“可怕的”；casual“隨便的”；unpleasant“使人不愉快的”。13A.questions BemphasizesCrecalls Danalyzes解析：選B人人都重視秋季的變化，“我”不反對這一點。emphasize“重視，強調(diào)”，符合語境。question“質(zhì)疑”；recall“回想”；analyze“分析”。14A.relax BchangeCharvest Drest解析：選B根據(jù)該句中的“the weather is _15_ being worse and worse, the dying leaves bee warmly colored”可知，天氣逐漸變得越來越寒冷，枯葉變成了暖色調(diào)；據(jù)此可以判斷，在秋天，事物確實發(fā)生了變化。change“變化”，符合語境。relax“放松”；harvest“收獲”；rest“休息”。15A.steadily BhardlyCaccordingly Dnarrowly解析：選A參見上題解析。steadily“穩(wěn)定地，逐漸地”，符合語境。hardly“幾乎不”；accordingly“相應(yīng)地”；narrowly“狹窄地，勉強地”。16A.if BsinceCas Dbefore解析：選D不知不覺中，一天就只有8個小時的陽光了。before you know it意為“在你知道之前”，表示“不知不覺中”。17A.control BdescribeCappreciate Dhide解析：選C根據(jù)上文描述的對秋天感到興奮和后一句中的“appreciating”可以判斷，這個即將到來的變化就是為什么“我”認(rèn)為欣賞秋天很重要。appreciate“欣賞”，符合語境。18A.process BdisadvantageCfear Dresult解析：選A秋天不僅僅是關(guān)于變化的過程，我們還要去欣賞那些即將逝去的(事物)。process“過程”，符合語境。disadvantage“缺點，不利條件”；fear“害怕，擔(dān)心”；result“結(jié)果”。19A.disappointing BpuzzlingCgone Dbroken解析：選C參見上題解析。gone“離開的”，符合語境。disappointing“令人失望的”；puzzling“令人迷惑的”；broken“破碎的”。20A.inside BforwardCbackward Doutside解析：選D根據(jù)最后一句可知，賞葉不是因為它們正變成美麗的深橙色和紅色，而是因為很快那些樹枝上將沒有樹葉了。所以該句是在鼓勵人們在這個秋天去戶外。outside“在戶外”，符合語境。
