Answer 1

答案：D;C;A;A;B;D;B;D;A;C;B;D;B;A;C;D;A;C;A;B;A;C;C;D;B
解析：

(1)答案D 通过"climbed the stairs slowly, carrying a big suitcase"可以推断 出选项D "tired"。 (2)答案C "miss a step"意为"错过;一脚踏空楼梯", 造成其后的动作"fell", 以及"sending my new suitcases rolling down the stairs"。 选项A意为"采取措施, 迈出一步", 选项B意为"修补", 选项D意为"拾级(而上), 与句意不符, 故不选。 (3)答案A "rolling down the stairs" 意为"滚落", 符合文意;选项B意为"打旁边经过", 选项C意为"沿楼梯往下坠落", 与句意不符, 故不选。 (4)答案A通过下文"Whenever Dad's face turned red, look out!" 可以推断出选项C。选项A意为"受折磨", 选项B意为"困难", 以及选项D意为"危险"均与句意不符。 (5)答案B "look out"意为"留点儿神", 此处意为"you have to be careful" 暗指下文要提到的动作"screaming at me and making a scene in front of the other girls;选项A意为"别犹豫", 选项C意为"坚持住", 以及选项D意为`放弃'均与句意不符。 (6)答案D "get sB．to do sth．"意为"让某人做某事"。选项A意为"引导某人做某事",以及选项C意为"鼓励某人做某事"均与句意不符;选项B意为"帮助某人做某事"又与其后的"without screaming at me"产生矛盾, 意思是`我怎样才能帮助父亲卸完车, 而父亲不向我吼叫。`似乎是在说`我帮助父亲卸车, 而父亲却要向我吼叫。'当然不合文意。 (7)答案B `How could I ．．． without doing ．．．?'为一句式, 意为`我怎样才能做到某事而同时又能避免．．．'。 (8)答案D 选用`rest'是指除去那天, 剩下的日子。需要指出的是该句`How．．．with?'与 文章开头提到的`and at the same time feeling lonely．'有因果关系。 (9)答案A。选项A意为`吃力', 与文章开头提到`my father following with two more'形成呼应。 （10）答案C。 `to a bad start'中的介词`to'表程度。选项A `fresh'表`新鲜的';选项D `unfair'表`不公正的'都与文意不符, 故不选。 (11) 答案B。通过上文`Doors were opening and faces peering out(探出), as Dad walked with difficulty close behind', 以及下文`But then again, would there be a chair in Room 316? Or would it be a(n) empty room?'可以容易地选定选项B `Find'。 (12) 答案D。`but then again' 为一表达法, 意思是`although something is true, something else is also true which makes the first thing seem less important．' 例： I don't spend much, but then again I don't go out much． He's clumsy(苯手苯脚的), but then again, he's always willing to help． →`but then again'相当于中文的`可是话又说回来'。 (2) `but then again'这一表达并未出现在2000年考纲词汇表或中学教科书中。考生面对类似情形可用`排除法'解题, 即过滤掉明显不合文意的选项。就此题来说, 选项A = actually, 意为 `事实上';选项B意为`偶然';选项C 意为`再次', 分别代入, 会发现与文意相去甚远, 故排除。 (13) 答案B。通过上文 `Get him into a chair and calmed down． But then again, would there be a chair in Room 316?'可以得知`a chair'为作者所想。本题通过 转折连词`or'将选项定在B `empty', 意即`would there be a chair in Room 316 or would there not be any chair in Room 316?'。 (14)答案A。本文至此虽过大半, 但一直是对去Room316的描述, 包括心理描述。上文提到的`Dad walked with difficulty' `Find the room quickly'等, 都反映出作者急迫的心情, 将选项定在A `Finally'以衬出后面动作到来之不易。选项B `Meanwhile =At the same time'意为`同时';选项C `Sooner or later'意为`或迟或早';选项D `At the moment'意为`就在那时候', 都与文意相去甚远。 (15)答案C。选项A、B含`把门用力弄开', 意指门原本被牢牢关闭, 不易打开。与文意不符。 (16)答案D。通过上面(1) "Damn!" he screamed, his face turning red． (2) ．．．screaming at me．．．, 以及 (3) Get him into a chair and calmed down．等对其父亲的描写, 推断出C `still'。 (17) 答案A。通过下文`But to my surprise, the room wasn't empty at all!', 否定掉选项B、C, 因为选项B和选项C与`but'的连用, 其逻辑应是`But to my surprise, the room was empty!'。 (18)答案C。(1) 作者打开房门后所看到的情形完全出乎意料, 故选用C `surprise'。(2) 选项A `regret'意指`使某人感到遗撼的是'与选项B `disappointment'意指`使某人感到失望的是'在干扰角度上相同, 可一并排除。此一命题现象在NMET完形填空中多有出现, 请留意。 (19)答案A。选项A `roommate'指`同住宿舍一室的人'。 作者并非在教室等处首次遇到Amy,故排除掉选项B `classmate';也并非在宿舍楼道等处首次遇到Amy, 故排除掉选项C `neighbour', 至于选项D `companion(伙伴), 在逻辑顺序上, 应先有classmate, 后有companion。此题选项无论从命制上看, 还是从解题上说,都具备典型性, 是研读NMET完形填空命制的好题材。 (20)答案B。(1) 通过下文Amy邀请作者的父亲喝冰茶"Would you like a glass of iced tea?"可以断定Amy是一位有礼貌的姑娘。与此相联系的动作应是`turndown the music(把音乐的声音关小)。 (2) 选项A、D、C在干扰角度上相近。此点与第18题相同, 请留意。 (21)答案A 通过下文"And of course, you're Mr． Faber", 可以容易地判断出选项A。 (22)答案C (1) 通过下文`Would you like a glass of iced tea?'可以容易地判断出选项C。 (2) 选项A、B、D也存在干扰角度上相近的现象。此点与第18、20题相同。 (23)答案C。上文曾两次提及Dad's face turned red： (1) "Damn!" he screamed, his face turning red． (2) Whenever Dad's face turned red, look out!。此题选用 选项C`less red'用以说明父亲气恼的情绪有所缓和。 （24）答案D。选项D`then' =at that time;选项A`soon'是个很好的命制设计, 其正确的用法应将其置于主语`I'前后, 行为动词`knew'之前, 或连词`that'之后, 从而成为 that从句中的一部分。 （25）答案B。选项A`sisters'指法律承认的姐妹关系;选项C`students'指经过学校录取成为学生, 不合文意。选项D`fellows'指`同伴', `Amy and I would be friends'中的`be', 相当于`become', 若与`fellows'连用, 显然不合乎逻辑。

提示：

1、本篇所选用的短文为记述文, 题材涉及学生校园生活与人际关系。 2、根据要求, 先阅读下面短文。文章大意是说一位上大学的姑娘, 在父亲的陪伴下, 将行李送往位于三层楼上的大学宿舍, 在见到她的新室友Amy前后的两种截然不同的心理变化。文章的选材较之以往更注重人物内心活动的刻划和感受。读后令人耳目一新。
