1.【答案】A 根据下一句及随后的内容,作者讲的是怎样成为动物爱好者的(从小就喜欢动物), 应当选择 A.how。
2.【答案】C in the first place是固定短语,意思是―首先。此句意思是:别人经常问到的问题之一, 是当初我是如何爱上动物的。
3.【答案】A 这句话的意思是:作者在呀呀学语之时,最早发清楚的音是―zooǁ(动物园),而不是―妈妈,―爸爸, 因此,应选 clarity―清晰 。填入其他选项 emotion (感情),sentiment(多愁善感),affection(友 爱)不合逻辑。
4.【答案】B but 在此处连接另一个句子(it was the word―zoo,―it was 被省略),表示转折,意为 ―而是,Except, except for, but for的用法接近,表示―除了……。 5.【答案】D 根据后面的 over and over again,应选―repeat
6.【答案】C 小孩想去动物园,便不停地发出尖叫声,故选―voice。A shrill voice与 scream 的意思 接近。volume(音量);noise(噪音);pitch(音调)均不合要求。
7.【答案】B shut sb.up 是指让某人住口,为了让孩子停止尖叫,只好带他去动物园。
8.【答案】A 根据后面主句的时态,此处只能用一般过去时。
9.【答案】C a great many 后直接跟可数名词的复数形式;a great / large amount of后跟不可数名 词;只有 a great /large number of后可以跟可数名词的复数形式。
10.【答案】D living后必须接介词 in,意为―居住 ;cultivating 耕种;reclaiming开垦;只有 exploring 有探察的意思。
11.【答案】C add to 相当于 increase,增加。其余选项后面都不接 to。
12.【答案】A later on为固定短语,―后来 。
13.【答案】D attendant 仆人;keeper可理解为―饲养员 ,但是 a student- keeper容易被误解为―收留学生的人;aide 有―助手之义。作者一边上学,一边在动物园里打工,只能当助手。
14.【答案】D which 在此引导定语从句,修饰前面列出的动物。
15.【答案】D 因为钱是在动物园打工挣的,选 successfully更能体现其含义。
16.【答案】D finance my first trip意为―支付我的旅行费用 ;pay 后应接介词 for;其他选项的意 思相差甚远。
17.【答案】B 此句为现在完成进行时态,选 regularly比较贴切。
18.【答案】D 此句是由 though 引导的让步状语从句,应与主句意思相对立。选项中,sorrows 和 disappointments与主句的 appeal to相对立,但 sorrows的分量太重。
19.【答案】C appeal to为成语,意思是―吸引。
20.【答案】B excursion短途旅行;journey(从一地到另一地的)长距离,具体的旅途;travel 旅行, 旅游,海外旅行;trip 旅行,远足。
