On May 27, 1995, our life was suddenly changed. It happened a few minutes past three,   1my husband, Chris, fell from his horse as it  2over a fence. Chris was paralyzed (瘫痪) from the chest down,   3to breathe normally. As he was thrown from his horse, we entered into a life of  4with lots of unexpected challenges( 挑战). We went from the "haves" to the “have-nots". Or so we thought.

5what we discovered later were all the gifts that came out of   6difficulties. We came to learn that something  7could happen in a disaster . All over the world people   8Chris so much that letters and postcards poured in every day. By the end of the third week in a  9center in Virginia, about 35,000 pieces of  10had been received and sorted.

      As   11, we opened letter after letter. They gave us   12and became a source of strength for us. We used them to  13ourselves. I would go to the pile of letters marked with "Funny" if we needed a  14, or to the "Disabled" box to find advice from people in wheelchairs or  15in bed living happily and  16.

      These letters, we realized, had to be shared. And so   17we offer one of them to you.

Dear Chris,

      My husband and I were so sorry to hear of your  18accident last week. No doubt your family and your friends are giving you the strength to face this   19challenge. People everywhere are also giving you best wishes every day and we are among those who are keeping you   20.

Yours Sincerely,

Nancy Reagan

1.C 【详解】本题考查It的用法。相当于It was a few minutes past three when…,我丈夫骑车摔去的时候,是在三点钟多一点。 2.D 【详解】从文中提到的骑马过栏杆从马上掉下来,动作应当是jump(跳)而不应当是walk(走),climb(爬),pull(拉)。 3.B 【详解】根据意思,胸下瘫痪的人会不能正常呼吸,suitable(适合的),unsuitable(不适合),able(能够),所以选择unable(不能够)。 4.A 【详解】在他从马上摔下来那时起,我们就过上了残疾人的生活,有了许多意想不到的挑战。 disability(残疾),possession(财产,拥有物),convenience(方便),experience(经历,经验) 5.D 【详解】本题考查连词的用法,根据意思,这里应当有转折的含义。然而我们后来发现那都是共度难关的献礼。本来是坏事,但作者却称之为gifts. 因为后文里有很多人关心。 6.A 【详解】共度难关。只有选择share difficulties共同解决困难,才会是值得庆幸的事情。其他的几个意思上讲不通。 7.C 【详解】从全文意思可知这句话的意思是“灾难也会有好的一面”。所以选择wonderful。 8.B 【详解】,每天都有信或名信片像雪片那样飞来。说明世人是如此care for(关心)Chris。 9.A 【详解】因为受伤了,可以看出是在住院治疗的三周内,收到了35,000封邮件。所以是medical centre(医护中心),选择A。 10.D 【详解】由前文的letters and postcards poured in every day可以看出这里应当选择mail(邮件)。 11.B 【详解】由we opened letter after letter(我们打开一封封的信)而前文里提到是my husband摔伤了,说明这里的we是夫妻关系。As a family,作为一家人,我们一起打开一封封的信。 12.C 【详解】那些信能给我们的应当是许多comfort(安慰),而不会是effect(效果,影响), effort(努力)或explanation(解释) 13.A 【详解】根据前句,那些mail给了我们安慰和力量,所以我们用它们去encourage(鼓励)我们自己。 express(表达) 14.B 【详解】到标上“funny”(有趣的)这类邮件里去找,自然是需要“欢笑”的时候。因为 “funny”的东西能给我们带来 “laugh” 15.C 【详解】到“Disabled”的信中找的经验,可以判断这些建议是来自于那些people in wheelchairs(坐在轮椅上的人)或者是甚至是people in bed(瘫痪在床)的人。 16.D 【详解】happily说明生活得高兴,and连接的并列部分,可以推断出这里应当是successfully(成功地生活着的人),如果使用bitterly(凄苦地),weakly,那么应当是转折关系,需要用but连接。 17.A 【详解】本题考查外国人说话的习惯连接语,我们意识到这些信应当大家共享,所以我们在这里给你们看上一封。选择 here。 这种类似的用法如:Here is some advice for you.   This is VOA. Here is the news from China. 18.D 【详解】文章一开头就讲到了骑马摔伤的,所以选择riding。 19.C 【详解】给你勇气和力量来面对的挑战应当是一个困难的一个。而不是technical(技术的),valuable(有价值的,宝贵的),different(不同的),所以选择C。 20.B 【详解】本题是这篇完形填空最难的一题,很容易误选为alive让你活着,答案应该是close,表示我们永远和你在一起,我们永远支持你,把你当成我们亲密的朋友。 【备考建议】考查语境,是这题的点睛之笔,也为这篇完形填空画了一个圆满的句号。学生应该在做题时充分考虑所出现的语境,将自己置身于文中,那样才能做对此题。所以这篇完形做全对还是相当困难的。
