9.Last summer,my friend and I hired a car and headed for Toronto.We didn't book a hotel room (61)because/as/since/for it was at the beginning of September and we thought it would be easy for us(62)to find(find) a hotel.
We (63)had driven/had been driving(drive) for six hours when the weather changed and it looked as if a thunderstorm was coming.We got lost and both were (64)exhausted(exhaust) when I saw an old lady parking her car.I stopped and asked (65)whether/if she knew a hotel nearby.She said there was a hotel down the road,(66)but it might have been closed.The lovely old lady looked at me and said,"Why don't you girls just stay the night at (67)my house?I'll cook for you."
We ended up going to a little island in Lake Muskoka,(68)whereher family lived.We slept in the (69)comfortable (comfort) beds they built for their kids,and they cooked for us.We stayed at their house for three nights in all and also met their friends.Those days were the (70)best(good) part of our three-week trip!We were glad that we got lost and met the old lady.

分析 本文讲述两位女士在多伦多旅游,在连续开车5个小时寻找旅馆无果时得到了一位陌生的热心考太太的帮助.

解答 61.because/as/since/for 考查连词.根据句意:我们没有预订旅馆房间,因为是在九月初,我们以为找到一个旅馆将会很容易.此处表示原因,故用because/as/since/for. 
62.to find 考查动词不定式.it is+adj.+for sb.to do sth.为固定用法,此处it是形式主语,真正的主语是不定式短语to find a hotel. 
63.had driven/had been driving 考查动词时态.根据句意:我们(一直)开车开了六个小时,这时天气变了.根据语境可知,此处要用过去完成时或者过去完成进行时,表示在过去某个时间之前已经完成或一直进行的动作. 
64.exhausted 考查过去分词.过去分词作表语,多半用来表示人物所处的心理状态或情感变化,其主语多半是人.
65.whether/if   查名词性从句的引导词."我"停下来问她是否知道附近有没有旅馆.此处引导宾语从句,且表示"是否",用whether/if.
66.but 考查连词.前后两个分句之间是转折关系,用连词but. 
67.my 考查代词.根据句意:"你们为什么不去我家过夜呢?"及根据空后的I可知,此处要填形容词性物主代词my.   
68.where 考查定语从句.分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句,先行词Lake Muskoka在从句作地点状语,用关系副词where.
69.comfortable 考查形容词. beds是名词,要用形容词修饰. 
70.best 考查形容词的最高级.根据句意:那些日子是我们三周旅行中最好的部分.即作者认为在老太太家的那三天是她们三周旅行中"最美好的"时光.

点评 在一篇200词左右的语篇(短文或对话)中留出10处空白,部分空白的后面给出单词的基本形式,要求考生根据上下文填写空白处所需的内容或所提供单词的正确形式,所填写词语不得多于3个单词.要做好语法填空题,理解短文是解题的前提,扎实的词汇、句型和语法知识是基础,英语国家的背景知识是必要的补充.考生须灵活运用语法知识,如单词词性、单词时态、名词单复数、连接词、代词、冠词等判断各空白处应填写的内容.答完后,还要通读全文,核对所填单词形式是否正确,是否符合语境.

17.In 1943,when I was 4,my parents moved from Coeur d'Alene,Idaho,to Fairbanks,Alaska,where adventure was never very far away.
We arrived in the summer,just in time to enjoy the midnight sun.All that sunlight was fantastic for Mom's vegetable garden.Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off,so she didn't care much about my bedtime.
Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk.That left me in a mess.I usually managed to find some trouble to get into.Once I had a little fire going in the dirt basement of a hotel.I had tried to light a barrel (桶) of paint but couldn't really get a good fire going.The smoke got pretty bad,though,and when I made my exit,a crowd and the police were there to greet me.The policemen took my matches and drove me home.
Mom and Dad were occupied/busy in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me,and they did!I had a tour of the prison before Mom rescued me.1 hadn't turned 5 yet.
As I entered kindergarten,the serious cold began to set in.Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail(栏杆) at school?
As for Leonhard Seppala,famous as a dog sledder (驾雪橇者),I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday.At the time I didn't realize what a superstar he was,but I do remember the ride well.I was wrapped heavily and well sheltered (保护) from the freezing and blowing weather.
In 1950,we moved back to Coeur d'Alene,but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbors of Alaska.

4.If I could give everyone one piece of advice about the college application process,it would be this:(36)C
  Be different from the beginning.Don't wait until the summer after junior year,or worse,the fall of senior year to begin this process.(37)E You might be seeing the stress in seniors who are frantically (疯狂地) visiting colleges,writing essays,and completing applications.
  (38)A.Do some research and think beyond the"usual suspects"(备选) before you find the most suitable choice.Colleges compare students from the same high school with the same measuring stick since they read all the applications together.If your coursework and test scores don't look good enough,it will be more challenging to be accepted.However,your leadership or special talents may be more impressive if you are one of only a few students applying to a certain college.
  Be different in the activities you choose and follow your interests,not your friends.(39)GIt could be tutoring,the environment,dancing,writing,or starting a business,but take part for the right reasons.Your activities should be meaningful and tell a story about who you are.
  Be different in what you write about in your essay to stand out.It is the one tool that gives you total control,so use it wisely.Write what you want them to know about you,not what you think they want to read.Brainstorming your essay topic is a self-reflection process.(40)DFind something unique.

A.Be different in preparing your college list.
B.Try to develop your talents.
C.Dare to be different
D.Stay away from topics that everyone writes about..
E.Starting early will relieve much stress.
F.Imagine what people are usually interested in.
G.Find something that matters to you or something you care about.

14.Etymology,the study of words and word roots,may sound like the kind of thing done by boring librarians in small,dusty rooms.Yet etymologists actually have a uniquely interesting job.They are in many ways just like archaeologists (考古学家) digging up the physical history of people and events.The special aspect of etymology is that it digs up history,so to speak,through the words and phrases that are left behind.
The English language,in particular,is a great field to explore history through words.As a language,English has an extraordinary number of words.This is partly due to its ability to adapt foreign words so readily.For example,"English"words such as kindergarten (from German),croissant (from French),and cheetah (from Hindi) have become part of the language with little or no change from their original sounds and spellings.So English-language etymologists have a vast world of words to explore.
Another enjoyable thing about etymology for most word experts is solving word mysteries (谜).No,etymologists do not go around solving murders,like the great detective Sherlock Holmes.What these word experts solve are mysterious origins of some of our most common words.
One of the biggest questions English language experts have pursued is how English came to have the phrase OK.Though it is one of the most commonly used expressions,its exact beginning is a puzzle even to this day.Even its spelling is not entirely consistent--unless you spell it Okay,it is hard even to call it a word.
Etymologists have been able to narrow OK's origin down to a likely,although not certain,source (来源).It became widely used around the time of Martin Van Buren's run for president in 1840.His nickname was Old Kinderhook.What troubles word experts about this explanation is that the phrase appeared in some newspapers before Van Buren became well known.It is likely that Van Buren could be called its primary source.Etymologists will doubtlessly keep searching for the original source.However,it is clear that OK's popularity and reputation have topped those of the American president to whom it has been most clearly linked.
21.The author mentions the words like"croissant"in Paragraph 2 to showC
A.words have changed a lot in the two languages
B.what English-language etymologists are exploring now
C.English has absorbed many words from other foreign languages
D.the English vocabulary is difficult to the non-English-speaking people
22.The underlined word"pursued"in Paragraph 4 meansB.
A.looked upon     
B.dug up    
C.put in        
D.set down
23.We can learn from the passage that etymologistsA.
A.discover the possible origin of words 
B.help detectives to solve mysterious murders
C.write interesting stories for some newspapers
D.explore the English language as well as the recent events
24.What most probably is the major purpose of the passage?C
A.To present the history of English words.
B.To explain what an etymologist does for his job.
C.To introduce the pleasure of the study of words and word roots.
D.To teach readers how to tell English words from non-English words•

1.One morning,my husband Jerry went back to the kitchen as he just finished loading his car."I guess filling my thermos(保温瓶) is all that I have left to do,and then I'm off."Down the drain(下水道) went the hot water that had been warming his thermos.
With a nostalgic(怀旧的) look on his face,he softly said:"Anytime I fill my thermos I think of your mom."The tone in his voice was so tender(温柔的) as he spoke of my mother,who is sadly no longer with us.
"Oh honey,I know she's watching and listening right now with a big smile on her face,"I responded,tears in my eyes.
One morning years ago when we were leaving,mother watched as Jerry was to fill his thermos.Mom then casually said,‘Jerry,if you filled your thermos with hot water and let it sit a while,your coffee would stay hot for longer then."With her simple suggestion,his face showed that he was shocked by his own lack of common sense.Well,of course it would!
He poured out the small amount of coffee already in the thermos and refilled it with boiling hot water.Then he poured the water and refilled it with hot coffee.Mom smiled as Jerry did so.
