don’t
remember

with

if
I
were
ever
to

poverty,I
would
never
forget

value
of
a
penny.”并結(jié)合本文主要講的是作者在急需錢的情況下,找遍所有可能存放硬幣的地方,以解燃眉之急。此后,作者再也不輕視每一分錢的價(jià)值。由此推知,這篇文章想要傳達(dá)的是,一分錢是一粒小小的種子,它同樣也孕育著財(cái)富。ⅠⅡⅢⅡ.完形填空Ifyou’veneverexperiencedtheembarrassmentofhavingyourcarddeclinedatagrocerystorecheckout,consideryourselfverylucky.JasonBoudreauxwasnotso

Boudreaux在市場遭遇無法支付的尷尬,一位陌生男士挺身而出幫他付了錢。他很感激,將照片和信息發(fā)布到社交網(wǎng)站上,并在朋友的幫助下很快找到了好心人。1.C
此處說明Jason
Boudreaux在最近的凱德市場之旅中并沒有那么幸運(yùn)。與上文“l(fā)ucky”相呼應(yīng),這里應(yīng)是同義詞表達(dá)“fortunate”,用在句中表達(dá)“Jason
Boudreaux遭遇了尷尬,并沒有那么幸運(yùn)”。故選C項(xiàng)。2.C
根據(jù)下文“put
on
his
detective
hat
and
spend
time
tracking
the
man
down”提示可知,他之前是個(gè)偵探。3.D
此處指Jason在商店停下來買了一些海鮮。分析可知,“stop
at+某地”,固定短語,意為“停在某處”。ⅠⅡⅢ4.B
由于對(duì)存款支票不熟悉,Jason沒有意識(shí)到這筆資金不會(huì)馬上到位。根據(jù)下文“Jason
didn’t
realize
that
the
funds
wouldn’t
be
available
right
away”可知,他對(duì)支票的使用方式不熟悉。故選B項(xiàng)。5.A
此處指就在他在收銀臺(tái)前結(jié)賬之前,他一直在和他后面的人聊天?!癷t
is/was
one’s
turn(to
do)”,固定句型,意為“輪到某人做某事”。6.D
此處與下文“talked
with(與某人交談)”相呼應(yīng),這里應(yīng)是“chatting”。7.B
根據(jù)下文“on
a
social
networking
website”可知,他將自己和這位男士的照片發(fā)布到了社交網(wǎng)站。8.A
結(jié)合常識(shí)可知,“the
touching
words(感人的文字)”這些文字是與照片一起發(fā)布出來的。“accompanied
by”意為“連同,配上”。ⅠⅡⅢ9.C
下文“No
problem.I
got
you.”是這位男士當(dāng)時(shí)的回答。故選C項(xiàng)。10.B
根據(jù)上文“the
man
he
talked
with
paid
for
him”可知,這位男士主動(dòng)幫助了Jason,Jason為他的善良而感到激動(dòng)。11.D
根據(jù)下文“This
guy”可知,Jason還不知道這位男士的名字。12.A
根據(jù)上文“the
man
he
talked
with
paid
for
him”可知,這位男士主動(dòng)幫助Jason,為了一個(gè)陌生人走上前來幫忙付錢。ⅠⅡⅢ13.C
根據(jù)上文“This
guy
just
for
a
complete
stranger.”可知,Jason認(rèn)為這位男士為陌生人“挺身而出”的善良行為值得大家的認(rèn)可。故選C項(xiàng)。14.B
Jason說,他已經(jīng)做好了充分準(zhǔn)備,戴上偵探帽,花時(shí)間找到這名男士,但在朋友的幫助下,他很快找到了這名男士。“be
fully
prepared
to
do...”,固定短語,意為“做好充分的準(zhǔn)備做某事”。15.D
根據(jù)上文“spend
time
tracking
the
man
down”可知,Jason都準(zhǔn)備花費(fèi)些時(shí)間找到這個(gè)人了,而在朋友的幫助下,沒有花費(fèi)很多時(shí)間,很快幫他找到了。ⅠⅡⅢⅢ.讀后續(xù)寫閱讀下面材料,根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段,使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。The
