从第二段大意可推断作者开车去跟丈夫会合，其他选项均不符合语境。2．B 从前面的Iintendedtogettomydestinationbeforesuppertime及后面的withoutastop可以推测，作者开得很快，因此选quickly。3．D 从本句中的afterdrivingformanymiles及becametired可知，作者需要稍作休息以恢复精力，故选refreshed。4．A 从第二段首句中的withmydaughter可知作者带着她的女儿进公共洗手间。5．C 从本段最后一句中的人称代词they，以及第四段第一句中的sheandherhusband可推断此处应该选couple。6．B 看到有人在外面徘徊，作者自然会感到好奇；且从后面的Iaskedthelady也可知是选curious。7．A 从后面的theywerewaitingforus以及标点符号(感叹号)可知，作者是感到惊奇。8．B 从第四段最后一句中的theywantedtomakesurethatIgotsafelybackonmyway可知此处意为：他们想看着作者和她女儿安全回到车上。故选car。9．C 本段中首句和末句中都用了safely。这对中年夫妇要看作者安全上路，是因为这种地方可能会不安全，因此用dangerous。10．D 这对中年夫妇在洗手间外等作者，想看作者安全上车的做法令人感动，而这种做法正是考虑周到的表现，因此用consideration。11．B 从后面的therewasanypossibilityofsomethinggoingwrong可知此处应用dangers。12．C 这对中年夫妇对作者如此照顾，作者对他们自然是非常感激的，用thanked才符合语境。13．A 继续旅程之后自然是到达目的地，故用reached。14．B 从but一词可知，虽然“我”连他们的名字都不知道，但很多年过去，“我”仍忘不了他们对“我”的关怀。15．D wings(翅膀)是天使的标志，此处作者把这对中年夫妻比喻成没有翅膀的天使。我们看不到他们的翅膀，不代表他们就不是天使。Ⅱ.A文章提出了让学生选择他们阅读的书籍，对这一新的教学方法，不同的人有不同的观点和看法。16．A 句意理解题。第一段说：他们争论激发学生阅读最好的方法是给他们提供更多的选择。本句话的意思是：并不是所有的教育家都能达成共识。也就是说他们有着不同的观点。17．A 细节理解题。第四段的Thatmakesthemmorefocused,andtheylookforwardtoclasstime.看出Donald的观点。18．C 细节理解题。第五段的Studentswhochoosetheirownbooksmightbecheatingthemselvesbypickingbooksthatarenotuptotheirreadinglevelorthataretoodifficult.看出Sarah的观点。19．B 细节理解题。从第五段的Thestudentswouldn'tbeabletoholdameaningfulconversationiftheywereallreadingdifferentbooks看出Kristin和Sarah对新方法的态度是一样的。20．B 篇章结构题。文章提出了让学生选择他们阅读的书籍，对这一新的教学方法，不同的人有不同的观点和看法。这篇文章通过陈述不同的人的不同观点，用比较的方法来写的。B6\n文章向我们介绍了被公认为20世纪最伟大的剧作家阿瑟·米勒以及他的代表作《推销员之死》。21．B 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可知原因：drawn(对应选项中的attracted)…bythe“GreatAmericanDream”，由此可知应选B。22．A 细节理解题。第二段第一句告诉我们，《推销员之死》是对美国制度的有力的抨击，也就是选项A所说的：揭露了美国商业世界的残酷(exposesthecrueltyoftheAmericanbusinessworld)。23．C 细节理解题。戏剧中的主人公WillyLoman最终自杀，成为了残酷的美国商业制度的牺牲品(victim)。24．A 推理判断题。由第三段可知，该剧第一次上演，就受到了好评，获得了三项大奖，成为第一个获得三项主要大奖的戏剧。由此可以看出，该剧本取得了巨大的成功，即选项所说的achievedhugesuccess。25．D 主旨大意题。纵观全文可以看出，文章由两部分组成：20世纪最伟大的剧作家阿瑟·米勒以及他最著名的剧本《推销员之死》的剧情、所取得的奖项。由此可以看出D项最能概括全文。6
