Answer

1.D

【详解】获得胜利可以有以下表达，beat sb. /  win a match。所以答案选D。

2.C

【详解】本题要考查学生的想象力和课外知识。因为在极地地区要把国旗插好，所以在这几个词中只能选择plant。我们可以想象这与种树时的动作差不多。而不是put(放)在那里。

3.D

【详解】此句的意思是在启程回家之前，他们在国旗前拍了照。所以选择before就显然了。

4.D

【详解】根据下文的意思上我们可以看出回家之路并不顺利，而A、B、C三个选项都是体现顺利的，所以不能选。故答案只能是D。

5.C

【详解】从上文的基调“不顺利”，所以太阳也几乎不出来，太阳的出现只需使用appear一词即可。

6.C

【详解】这句话的意思是“暴风雪使他们不可能看到那些为了认路而摆放的石头”，而set up有设置之意，所以答案选择C。

7.D

【详解】从下文可以看出应该选择D，意思是：使事情更糟的是……（to make things worse）

8.C

【详解】这里的think of 相当于consider，而选择think of as就等于consider… as=consider…to be…。

9.B

【详解】努力地往上爬了几天，他是在拼命努力的，所以B项最优。

10.A

【详解】原来有5个，一个死掉了，所以还剩下四个。答案选A。（who were left在这里是定语从句。）此外，文章中也有一句He asked them to leave him behind in his sleeping-bag（他让他们先走，别管睡袋里的他）。另如:leave sb. alone的被动式： sb. is left alone.

11.A

【详解】指他们所能达到的最大速度，所以显然答案选择manage。

12.B

【详解】极地的天气极其寒冷，由suffering for some time from his         face; at night his feet swelled（肿胀） so large that…（他的脚肿得很大也应当是冻伤了才肿起来的），可以想象出来，他在遭受脸部冻伤之苦。

13.A

【详解】脚肿大了，所以靴子几乎穿不进去。

14.A

【详解】前文讲到他的脚肿得很大，鞋子穿不进去，因此，肯定是suffer from pain（疼痛）。

15.D

【详解】根据文章意思，“这种缓慢会使得其他人自救的可能性变小”。是特指其他人，除了他以外的所有人，有三个，所以选用the others。

16.D

【详解】意思是帮助他继续行走了一段，而提供的几个选项中，只有on有继续之意。类似的还有go on, walk on, work on…等等。

17.B

【详解】几个人不可能睡在同一个睡袋中，也不可能有床。所以答案只能有帐篷。

18.A

【详解】while后一般跟延续性动词或表示状态的词，而本题干中…were still in their sleeping-bags表示状态，“当其他人还在睡袋里睡觉的时候，他说要出去一会。”答案选A.

19.D

【详解】由文章内容，他希望他的死对同伴们有所帮助，说明他一去不返He was never seen again.。be gone“消失，不见了” 如果选A应当使用missing。

20.C

【详解】还是考查词汇词义辨析。根据全句意思，可以看出他是独自一个人走了（为了不拖累同伴）所以答案选择alone。

【完形填空题型备考指导】今年的辽宁卷完形填空题整体上难度比较小，但需要学生将自己置身于文中，把自己当成文章的主人公，深刻体会文中人物的思想和心情，那样才能拿到高分。2006届“新课标”下，完形填空将更加突出学生运用词汇的能力，据有消息称，可能会考填空形式的完形填空，那样的话更加要求学生有很强的词汇基础和语言运用能力。在复习时，要经常练习，做好以后不能只对一下答案，要分析命题人的心理，这样才能提高自己的解题能力。做题时学生也要努力去思考，多转几个弯，多问自己几个为什么，从而学会思考，提高分析问题、解决问题的能力。
