六、阅读单选
Some people always ask me why I like helping others. I’ll say I’m learning kindness
from my father.
One day when I was twelve, I went with my father to his work place. While I was
running around, I saw a poor woman with a child in her arms standing outside, crying a lot.
She was thin and looked pale. My father went out and asked her to come in. He gave her
some water and then asked what was wrong.
The woman said that her husband died months ago and that she didn’t have anyone else
in her family who could help her. She did some manual labor for a living. But she was ill
those days and was unable to go to work. So she had nothing to eat. While telling the story,
she started crying again. My father and I were deeply moved by her story.
We got some food for her and her baby. My father then took them to the nearest hospital,
because neither the mother nor the child seemed to be very well. On the way, my father
bought her a small bag of flour. He also gave her some money before we left her. The lady
was so grateful.
Eight years has passed. I still remember it clearly. My father’s kindness inspires (鼓舞)
me all the time.

A．Because they both got a bad cold. B．Because they both seemed ill.

59．What’s the best title of this passage?
A．A Poor Woman B．An Interesting Story
C．An Unforgettable Thing D．A Happy Thing参考答案：
1．reported
【详解】句意：据报道，为了继续深造许多成年人在网上上课。通过分析句子可知，这是
一个It在句子中充当形式主语的被动语态句型，that引导的从句部分则是句子的真正主语。
常见于It is/was said/reported...+that句型，意为“据说/据报道……”，故填reported。
2．windy##winding
【详解】句意：现在刮风了。恐怕很快就要下雨了。根据“I’m afraid it is going to rain
soon.”可知，快要下雨了现在的天气应该是刮风的，空处需要填写形容词作表语，或动词的
现在分词构成现在进行时态。结合所给单词，故填windy/winding。
3．rose
【详解】句意：大雨过后，昨天河水上涨了一米多。rise“上升”，动词。根据“yesterday”
可知句子是一般过去时，动词用过去式。故填rose。
4．kidding
【详解】句意：——你现在在开玩笑吗？——不，我不是。kid“开玩笑”，动词。根据
“now”可知此处是现在进行时，动词用现在分词，故填kidding。
5．asleep
【详解】句意：吉米一开始睡不着。午夜暴雨停止时，他终于睡着了。sleep“睡觉”，根据
空前的fell可知，此处是固定短语fall asleep“入睡”。故填asleep。
6．rising
【详解】句意：当我到达山顶的时候，太阳正在升起。根据“When I got to the top of the
mountain”可知，该句讲述过去某个时刻正在发生的事情，句子应用过去进行时，其结构为：
was / were+现在分词。动词rise的现在分词为rising。故填rising。
7．fallen
【详解】句意：暴风雨过后，到处可以看到落叶和垃圾。根据所给空后面的“leaves”可知，
应该用形容词作定语修饰名词，fall的形容词形式是fallen“落下的”，故填fallen。
8．heavily
【详解】句意：开始下大雨的时候，我正在看电影。根据“it began to rain…”可知空格处缺
少副词，heavy的副词形式是heavily，故填heavily。
9．was talking
【详解】句意：当安和同学们谈话时，老师进来了。根据While以及came可知，从句表示
过去某个时刻正在发生的事情，用过去进行时was/were doing的结构，主语Ann是第三人称单数形式，助动词用was，故填was talking。
10．dying
【详解】句意：随着风的减弱，这座城市最终又变得安静起来。分析句子结构可知，with
复合结构表示伴随，空处应是非谓语动词，the wind“风”与die down“减弱”是主动关系，
用现在分词。故填dying。
11． died down
【详解】“逐渐消失”die down，结合句意和空前的has可知，这是现在完成时，所以用过
去分词died。故填died；down。
12． beat heavily against
【详解】“敲打着”beat against；“猛烈地”heavily。根据“yesterday”可知用一般过去时，
beat的过去式是beat。故填beat；heavily；against。
13． What were doing
【详解】句子讲述昨晚八点正在做的事，是过去进行时，主语是“you”动词用“were
doing”的结构。疑问词是“what”，句首首字母大写。疑问句将be动词“were”放在主语前，
变成“what were you doing”。故填What；were；doing。
14． While was sleeping was helping
【详解】句子讲述的是两件事同时发生，用“while”引导时间状语从句,句首首字母大写。
句子动词是过去进行时，主语是第三人称单数，用“was doing”的结构。表示“正在睡觉”
用“was sleeping ”。表示“正在帮助”用“was helping”。故填While；was；sleeping；
was；helping。
15． broke apart
【详解】“摧毁”可以用break...apart“分裂，解体，打散，使……分裂开”表示，结合中
文意思可知，句子描述过去的事情，此处的动词应用过去式，故填broke；apart。
16．D

考查动词辨析。win赢得；find发现；fail失败；beat打败。根据语境“Peter…Mike at chess
yesterday.”可知，此处指Peter在象棋上打败了Mike。故选D。
17．C

考查动词辨析。rise“（太阳、月亮）升起”；raise“举起”。根据“When they saw the sun ...
in the east”可知，第一空指太阳从东方升起，用rise；再根据see sb./sth. doing sth.“看见某
人/某物正在做某事”可知，此处要用分词作宾补；由“the children ... their arms and
cheered.”可知，第二空指孩子们抬起胳膊，raise符合句意；再由“cheered”可知，时态为一
般过去时，动词要用过去式。故选C。
21．C
【详解】句意：当夏天来临的时候，很多人都想游泳来找点乐子。
考查非谓语动词。根据feel like doing sth.“想要做某事”可知，此处要用动名词形式。故选
C。
22．A
【详解】句意：——保罗，你昨晚九点在干什么？ ——我和我的朋友正在电影院看电影。
考查过去进行时。根据—Paul, what were you doing at nine Last night？，可知是过去进行时，
因此答语也用过去进行时。所以B/C/D/都不对。过去进行时的结构为were/was+doing。故
选A。
23．B
【详解】句意：玛丽在跳舞而迈克在弹钢琴。
考查动词时态。While 在……的时候，在……期间，强调主句的动作与从句的动作同时发
生或主句的动作发生在从句的动作过程中。while从句中的谓语动词须是持续动词或者表示状态，多用进行时。因为Mike为第三人称单数，故选B。
24．C
【详解】句意：房间里没有灯光，我什么也看不见。我很害怕。
考查名词辨析。air空气；wind风；light灯；cloud云。根据“I couldn’t see anything.”可知

turn down关小，调低，拒绝；C. die down减弱，逐渐平息；D. break down损坏，分解，出
故障。笑声应是消散或减弱，结合句意可知选C。

【详解】句意：我们应该在困难时互相帮助。
考查介词短语。on time of不搭配；in time of在……时候，通常指比较具体实在的时期；on
times of不搭配；in times of在……的时刻，通常用于比较抽象的时期。根据“difficulty”可
知，此处是固定短语in times of difficulty“在困难时期”，故选D。
27．B
【详解】句意：——吉姆今天又在课堂上睡着了。——他昨晚睡得不好，觉得很困。
考查形容词辨析。sleepy困倦的；asleep睡着的。根据“fell”可知，第一空是固定短语fall
asleep“入睡”，排除AC选项；第二空是表示“感到困倦”，应用sleepy。故选B。
28．B
【详解】句意：——刘飞刚才在隔壁房间看到一些奇怪的东西。发生什么事了？——我不

知句子是肯定句，用something；形容词修饰不定代词时要置于其后。故选B。

【详解】试题分析：句意：--昨天雨下得很大并且持续了很长时间。--太糟糕了！甚至一些
街道都充满了水。A. hardly 几乎不；B. strongly 强劲地； C. terrible糟糕的； D. heavily
猛烈地，用来修饰雨雪下得大。结合句意，故选D。
考点：考查副词的用法。
30．B
【详解】句意：——凯特刚才对你说了什么？——她想知道昨天篮球比赛开始时运动员们发生了什么事。
考查宾语从句。根据“She wanted to know”可知，后面为宾语从句，结合选项和“wanted”

序为陈述句语序，故排除选项A和C。故选B。
