Rodd有幸去亲自看到圣诞老人，没想到见到时由于太过专注礼物而浪费一次机会。从此，他懂得了做事情要专注于目的，不能被别的东西所引诱。

1. A 他一路上遇到的一切都是他无法想象的。come across“偶然发现；遇见 ”，符合题意。come through“经历(苦难而脱险), 获得成功”；get through“达到(目的), 完成(任务), 通过(议案)”。

2. B 根据全文最后一句the long white beard and the soft red suit可知答案。 3. C 第三段的第一句From that day on, every time Rodd saw a toy有提示。

4. D 第一段就提到他来时非常兴奋，此时见到圣诞老人突然降临，还带来很多梦想中的礼物，就更加令他兴奋不已了。annoying “令人心烦的”；frightening“吓人的”；surprising “令人惊奇的”； exciting“令人兴奋的”。

5. B Rodd朝自行车走去，这是一辆他常常梦想得到的自行车。根据句意，我们可知选B项。still“仍然”；always“常常，总是”；ever“永远，曾经”；never“从未，决不”。

6. A Rodd来的目的就是来看圣诞老人的。只关注自行车，没有看清圣诞老人，结果就大哭大闹，可见Rodd确实浪费了这一次好机会。waste“浪费”；pass“传递”；lack“缺少”； spend“度过”。

4

7. C 在看圣诞老人时，Rodd只注意玩具，忽视了重要的目的。可见，从那次之后，他会吸取教训，关注重要的东西。interest“兴趣”； necessity“必要”；importance“重要性”；usage“用途”。 8. D 从下文可知他们看重的礼物只是可以果腹的一块面包，可见其贫穷。coldness“冷酷”；excitement“兴奋”； happiness“幸福”；poverty“贫穷”。

9. C 注意双重否定。多年没有听到别人对他说“我爱你”的痛苦。

10. A 给那些不幸的人带来欢乐。smile“欢笑”；tear“泪水”；doubt“怀疑”；glare“闪耀”。 11. B 上一句说明他成功地改变了镇里的环境。此句同样用双重否定表明人们对他表示感谢。cheerful“欢乐的”；grateful“感恩的”； delighted“高兴的”； satisfied“满足的”。 12. B 下文中有他睁开眼睛，看到白胡子红衣服的圣诞老人。walk“步行”；sleep“睡觉”； play“玩耍”； laugh“大笑”。

读过鲁迅先生的《社戏》一文的读者都知道江南的小雨是多么的有诗情画意。本文与《社戏》有着异曲同工之妙。

1. A 此题较难。根据第一句好像应该是“下雨”，但是仔细阅读空后but的转折句“一连7到8天非常潮湿”，说明“没有真正的下雨，而是雨蒙蒙的，要下雨的样子”。这与接下来对上海居民的感受描写是一致的。

2. C 注意前面的who usually do not feel the need for rain，这些不需要雨水的人，当然觉得外面雨蒙蒙的，只能待在家里是非常bored “烦人”的。disappointed“失望的”。

3. B 上一句描写的是，这样雨蒙蒙的日子，看不到好的景色；本句又谈到，汽车开过，溅你一身泥浆。可见是worse still “更糟的是”。 meanwhile“同时”； as a result“结果”。

4. B 在雨蒙蒙的日子，汽车开过，能溅到身上的不是水就是mud “泥浆”。 5. A 固定搭配attend school/a meeting“上学，开会”。 apply to“申请”。 6. D 固定搭配sit up late into the night“熬夜”。 7. D 表示雨点against“击打”窗户。

8. A 作者接下来描写的是与伙伴去看戏，半夜回家时遇到雨，伙伴唱歌的欢乐情境。所以用enjoyed“享受”。

9. B 注意宾语a small boat，当然是rowed“划”船去看戏。 10. C 既然是戏，就是人在现场performance “表演”。 11. D 固定搭配be/get caught in a rain“困在雨中”。

12. C 对应伙伴在歌唱，自己觉得雨点打在雨篷上是一种pleasant “欢乐”的声音。

(3)

专家用了一个装石子的例子，反复3次给我们讲述一个道理： 理想有大小，不能专注于小的，而应该把更多的时间放到大的理想目标上，才能获得成功。

1. C 根据下文他引证的一个实例可知，他是想把这个观点解释得clearer “更加清楚”。 hard“难的，硬的”； rough“粗糙的，粗暴的”；wise“明智的”。

2. D 下文中提到“再也装不下石子了”可知，这个罐子被装满至top“顶点”。

3. A 根据第9空前的however full your schedule is获得提示。full“满的”；pure“纯洁的”； enough“足够的”；smooth“光滑的”。
