23、的自豪感蕩然無存。從此以后，作者不再盲目相信權威，而是佩服真正擁有聰明才智的人。1C根據后兩句的內容可知作者當時在和朋友“爭論”。此外，第三段第二句中的argument也是線索提示。2D根據下一句后半句中的內容可知，作者請“老師”來解決這個問題。3A作者對自己的觀點非常自信，所以希望老師能夠“證明” (prove)自己是正確的。4D下文敘述的是老師的無知，由此可以推斷她毫不“猶豫”地回答說鯨魚不是哺乳動物，而是魚。without hesitation意為“毫不猶豫”。5C作者知曉鯨魚是哺乳動物，在與朋友爭辯中顯然為自己知道事實真相而感到“自豪”，但是老師的無知讓作者的自豪感受到了傷害。6D作者

24、明明知道自己的觀點正確，而老師竟然毫不猶豫地否定，作者自然感到非常“吃驚”，一時無話可說。7B此句是“not only.but also.”結構，表示“不但而且”，but后面省略了also。8Dcommon knowledge表示“常識”，此處common表示“普通的，平常的”。她不但錯了，而且她對作者認為的常識完全不知曉。前三項分別表示“特殊的”、“正常的”、“規律的”，都不符合所給語境。9C上一句中提到她的教齡很長，再結合本句后半句的內容可知每個人都“相信”她的話。A項表示“取悅”；B項表示“欽佩，羨慕”；D項表示“喜愛”，均不符合語意。10A在此之前，作者一直不知道成年人也犯錯。而C項構

25、成“not.until.”結構，主語的謂語動詞一般是短暫性動詞，所以用在此處不合適。B、D兩項均不符合語意。故選A項。11D上述事件在作者的成長過程中“極大地”影響了對別人的看法。A項表示“相當地”時，通常用來修飾形容詞或副詞；B項表示“適當地”；C項表示“幾乎”，均不符合語意。12A此處所要表達的意思是“每當”作者發現有人對另外一個人過于尊敬或崇拜的時候所以用whenever“無論何時”。雖然C項也可以表示“當時候”，但是謂語動詞應該是延續性動詞，所以不可選。B、D兩項都不符合語意。13B此處that承接上文，指代本句前半句的內容，即有人過于尊敬或崇拜另一個人的做法。14B上一句中提到作者厭

26、惡人們過于尊敬或崇拜他人，由此可知作者不再“尊重”所謂的權威。此外，下一句中To earn my respect也是線索提示。15C“鯨魚”事件后，作者改變了以往的做法，開始看重聰明才智，而不是地位或者學位的高低。talented意為“有才能的”；energetic意為“精力充沛的”；patient意為“有耐心的”；diligent意為“刻苦的”。(二)【文章大意】滴水之恩，涌泉相報。凱利醫生小時候為了攢夠學費挨家挨戶地推銷商品。饑寒交迫之時他得到了一位女士的一大杯牛奶。數年之后，當這名女士生病住院，正為醫藥費發愁時，醫藥費通知單上“醫藥費已付：一杯牛奶。”的簽字使她簡直難以相信：給她治病的醫

27、生正是當年的小男孩。1B他很餓，而且他沒剩多少錢，所以他決定到下一戶去乞討。2Alose one's nerve是“不知所措”之意。其他不合句意。3D這位女士不是給他一杯水，而是給他一杯牛奶，可見她認為這個孩子餓了。4A句意：你不欠我什么。故選A。5C句意：我媽媽教導我，施以愛心，不圖回報。6A喝了牛奶之后，這男孩感到渾身有勁了。physically是“體力上”之意。7C根據常理判斷，應該是“數年之后”。8Dcall in有“叫/請過來”之意。9D從后面看Howard Kelly醫生被人家請來會診，且有批準減免醫藥費的權力，故選famous比較合適。10A當他聽到病人來自的那個城鎮的名字時，他的眼睛充滿奇怪的光彩。11Crecognize認出。12Bcase 在此是“病案”之意。13D本題可從語法角度考慮。requested后面的賓語從句要用虛擬語氣。Kelly醫生要求把那位女士的醫療費最終賬單送過來讓他批準。14B治病的費用將會花費她整個余生來償還。15Dcatch one's attention吸引某人的注意。(三)【文章大意】這是一篇夾敘夾議文。作者出生于一個貧窮的單親家庭，然而在母親的幫助與教導下，他克服了重重困難，從后進生一躍名列前茅，成為優秀生，并實現了自己的夢想，成為一名醫生。
