Question

I climbed the stairs slowly, carrying a big suitcase, my father following with two more. By the time I got to the third floor, I was tired and at the same time feeling lonely. Worse still, Dad      a step and fell, sending my new suitcases      down the stairs. “Damn!” he screamed, his face turning red. I knew       was ahead. Whenever Dad's face turns red,       !

How could I ever       him to finish unloading the car       screaming at me and making a scene in front of the other girls, girls I would have to spend the       of the year with? Doors were opening and faces peering out (探出), as Dad walked       close behind. I felt it in my bones that my college life was getting off to a(n)       start.

“      the room quickly,” I thought. “Get him into a chair and calmed down.” But then again, would there be a chair in Room 316? Or would it be a(n)      room?

  I turned the key in the lock and pushed the door open, with Dad       complaining  about a hurting knee or something. I put my head in, expecting the       . But to my       , the room wasn’t empty at all! It had furniture, curtains, a TV, and even paintings on the walls.

And there on a well-made bed sat Amy, my new       , dressed neatly. Greeting me with a nod, she said in a soft voice, “Hi, you must be Cori.” Then, she       the music and looked over at Dad. “And of course, you’re Mr. Faber,” she said,        . “Would you like a glass of iced tea?” Dad’s face turned decidedly       before he could bring out a “yes”.

I knew then that Amy and I would be       and my first year of college would be a success.

【解析】

试题分析：本文记述作者作为一名大学新生到校第一天不寻常的经历。

1.C考查动词辨析A . took带走；B minded介意 ；C missed错过；D picked挑选；空格后的并列谓语fell已暗示，父亲上楼时失足了，动词短语miss a step意为“失足，踩滑”，符合语境。故选C项。

2.A考查动词辨析A rolling 滚落；B passing经过 ；C dropping下降；D turning 翻转。父亲跌倒后失手，使箱子滚下楼梯。send sth doing意为“使得……行动起来”，是send后跟复合宾语的句型，其后用现在分词作宾语补足语，表示正在进行的动作。故选B项

3.C考查名词辨析A suffering痛苦；B difficulty困难；C trouble麻烦；D danger危险；句意：我知道麻烦来了。根据“Damn!” he screamed, his face turning red可知怕父亲迁怒自己，故选C项。

4.B考查动词短语辨析A go head继续；B look out小心；C hold on稍等；D give up放弃； 由于父亲没踩到楼梯，箱子滚下了楼，父亲的脸变红了。作者知道无论什么时候父亲的脸变红了，就要多加小心。look out意为“小心”，符合语境。

5.D考查动词辨析A lead通向；B help帮助；C encourage 鼓励；D get 得到；根据下文中的“screaming(大叫大嚷)”一词可知，lead “引导”、help “帮助” 和encourage “鼓励”，均都不符合语境。此处get是使役动词，后接动词不定式作宾语补足语，即get sb to do sth意为“使某人做某事”。故选D。

6.B考查介词辨析A after在。。之后；B without 没有；C while 当。。时候； D besides 除。。之外还有；主人公不知道如何才能使父亲在卸完车前不要冲着她大叫大嚷，在将与她一起上学的女孩子们面前使她出丑，故选B项。

7.D考查名词辨析A best好；B beginning开始；C end结束；D rest休息，剩下的；本题中的beginning有很大的干扰性，一些考生只注意到主人公在这篇短文中讲述了开学前她去学校的情景，产生了误解，而没有注意到大学需要三四年的时间，这些女孩将和主人公一同度过。the rest of the year的意思是这一年剩余的时间。答案为D。。

8.A考查短语辨析A with difficulty有困难，吃力地；B in a hurry 匆忙；C with firm steps坚定的步伐；D in wonder 惊奇；句意：因为父亲摔伤了腿，所以走路十分吃力，因为摔了一下所以很吃力地起来，故选A项。。

9.C考查形容词辨析A fresh新鲜的；B late迟到；C bad坏的；D unfair不公平；由于上文中所述的事，作者感到自己大学生活是一个坏的开始。故选C项。

10.B考查动词辨析A Search寻找；B Find发现；C enter 进入；D Book 预定；通读全文我们知道主人公是个大学新生，父亲正在带她到校报到，根据常识，他们首先应该赶快“找到”房间，不会搜寻(Search)或订(Book)房间；而Enter应该产生在“找到”之后，所以Find是正确答案。答案为B

11.B考查形容词辨析A small小的；B empty空的；C new 新的；D neat整洁的； 作者对自己要住的房间究竟有什么设备，里边是否有椅子或根本就是一个空房间，心里全然没数。故此空应填empty。

12.A考查副词辨析A Finally最后；B Meanwhile与此同时；C Sooner or later迟早；D At the moment那时 根据上文中所描述的一连串的事可以判断，最后终于找到了房间，主人公把钥匙插进了锁里，故选A项。

13.D考查副词辨析A yet 然而；B only 只有；C even甚至； still 仍然；这时，父亲仍在抱怨着。even强调作用，“甚至”A表示“转折”；B项表示“仅仅”。答案为D。

14.A考查名词辨析A worst糟糕；B chair椅子；C best好的；D tea茶；因为开头就不顺利，所以主人公所能期待的只能是更加糟糕的事，故答案为A。

15.C考查名词辨析A regret遗憾；B disappointment失望； C surprise吃惊；D knowledge知识；但接下来发生的事出于主人公的意料之外，所以主人公感到吃惊。C项to one's surprise作状语，表“吃惊”。答案为C

16.A考查名词辨析A roommate室友；B classmate同学；C neighbour 邻居；D companion伙伴；短文中虽然没有直接说明Amy的身份，但从下文中的college一词可判断出主人公是去上大学，和她同屋的人自然是室友。答案为A。

17.B考查动词短语辨析。A turned on 打开；B turned down关小，拒绝；C played玩；D enjoyed喜欢； 根据空格后并列的谓语“looked over at Dad”可知，她把音量调低。turn down意为“关小，调低”，符合语境。故选B。

18.C考查动词辨析A questioning提问；B wondering想知道；C smiling微笑；D guessing猜 ；根据上下文的语境，Amy和“我”父亲谈话时应是面带笑容，smiling是现在分词表示伴随动作。故选C项。

19.C考查名词辨析A red红；B less pal苍白；C less red不太红；D pale苍白； 因为Amy的和蔼可亲，使父亲的脸变得不那么红了。less red表比较“不那么红”，因为上文提到父亲。答案为C。

20.B考查名词辨析A sisters姐妹；B friends朋友；C students学生；D fellows伙伴；根据上文描述的，我们与Amy的短暂接触，以及下方的and my first year of college would be a success,可知我们会成为朋友，故选B项。
