3、 whipped across my face as I flew down the hillside on the wooden sled.Near the end of the day I was too overjoyed when my oldest brother decided to let me try riding the sled all by myself.

5、hear my brothers running down the hill yelling，“You have to steer(操控)! You have to steer！”Sadly, that wasnt the last time I failed to steer when some obstacle knocked me off course in my life.Many times problems，troubles, and my own failures have sent me crashing into the trees of anger，frustration,

9、ng” in Paragraph 2?ADelightful.BTerrifying.COrdinary.DViolent.A解析：词义猜测题。根据第二段第二句“It was so exhilarating when the wind whipped across my face as I flew down the hillside on the wooden sled.”可知，这句话描述的是作者第一次滑雪时在木雪橇上从山上冲下去，风从脸上刮过时的快感。根据第一段作者渴望滑雪的描述再结合下文中的“overjoyed”可知，作者玩得很开心，据此可以判断，画线词意为“令人愉快的”，故A项正确。3

11、e last possible second.

17、nvaluable考查词性转换。空处修饰名词treasure且表示“(极)宝贵的”，故用value的形容词形式valuable或invaluable。2trapped考查非谓语动词。动词trap和主语之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，表示“(已经)被困城堡之内”，故用过去分词trapped作主语补足语，表明主语的状态。3and考查连词。根据语境可知，该句中的“Frederick, the Duke of Swabia”和“his brother, the Emperor Konrad”之间是并列关系，故用and。4whose考查定语从句的引导词。分析该句结构可知，该句为非限制性定语从句，army和先行词

18、之间是所属关系，故用whose引导该定语从句。5to leave考查非谓语动词。refuse to do sth.为固定短语，表示“拒绝做某事”，此处表示，城堡里的妇女要求满足她们的条件，否则就拒绝离开。6with考查介词。fill (sth.) with sth. 为固定用法，意为“用填满”，故填with。7possibly考查词性转换。空处修饰动词take，故用副词形式。8tears考查名词的复数。tear为可数名词，此处构成固定搭配bring sb.to tears，意为“使某人流泪”，故用tear的复数形式tears。9safety考查词性转换。根据该句中的“complete . an

19、d freedom”可知，形容词complete修饰空处所填词，空处与名词freedom为并列关系，故用名词形式safety。10made考查动词的时态。根据该句中的“He invited them”及全文时态可知，此处陈述的是过去发生的事情，故用一般过去时。*完形填空Something quite tragic(悲剧的)happened in our home.It had a _1_ effect on our lives.It _2_ the way we relax and even where we sit.There was no fire or flood.we _3_ our

27、ughCbright Dnecessary【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，讲述了WiFi对“我”家生活的影响。【核心词汇】have an effect on对有影响temporarily adv.暂时地log on登录occur v发生1D根据上下文可知，家里没有WiFi对我们生活的影响是巨大的(huge)。possible“可能的”；modest“谦虚的”；positive“积极的”。2B根据前一句“It had a _1_ effect on our lives”和下文的“But，what will we do”可知，平时家里离不开WiFi，现在没有了，当然对我们平时的生活方式产生挑战。

28、explore“探索”；improve“提升”；guarantee“保证”。3C根据下文的“When given the news that there was no WiFi in the house”可知，我们家里失去(lost) WiFi一个多星期；receive“收到”；book“订购”；buy“购买”。4B根据第二段第一句“I was raised in the preWiFi era”可知，“我”是在没有WiFi的时代长大的，因此对于没有了WiFi也是比较习惯的(accustomed)，be accustomed to表示“习惯于”。5A根据上下文可推知，“我”习惯无WiFi的生活

29、，但是孩子们不习惯。上下文是转折关系，因此选however。6C根据空后的“But, what will we do”可知空处指的是他们的第一反应(response)。7D根据上下文可知，没有WiFi只有电视，且电视频道只有70多个，孩子们很绝望。excited“兴奋的”；grateful“感激的”；embarrassed“尴尬的”；desperate“绝望的”。8B根据本句的定语从句“most of which is now given online”可知，家庭作业应是孩子们的主要(major)挑战。avoidable“可避免的”；enjoyable“令人愉快的”；simple“简单的”。9

30、A空后的“the dog ate my homework”表示“狗吃了我的作业”，此处表示没有网络是这种借口的一个新提法，故选A。10C根据空后的宾语从句“that one of her friends had her water supply temporarily_11_ due to a leak”可知，这些内容应该是女儿讲出来(observed)的。 repeat“重复”；promise“承诺”；ignore“忽略”；observe“观察，说，评论”。11B根据该空后的“due to a leak”可推知，水管漏水了，供水会被暂时中断(cut off)。12A根据上下文可知，女儿认为我

31、们没有WiFi更糟糕(worse)。13D根据上下文可知，为了能够在家工作，丈夫和“我”需要互联网。enable sb.to do sth.表示“使某人能做某事”。14C根据下文的“Although expensive”可知，“我”去商店买(purchase)WiFi。 look into“调查”；search for“寻找”；borrow“借”。15A根据语境可知，买了WiFi，“我”建立自己的网络就容易了。16D根据本句中的“like leaving a tap running(像让水管的水不停地流着一样)”可知，我们知道让水管的水不停地流着意味着“浪费”，故选D。17B根据上下文可知，当

32、“我”上网做事时，“我”是尽快地做，as quickly as possible表示“尽快地”。18A根据语境可知，技术已经引起了我们日常生活的改变，这些改变在我们没有注意(noticing)的情况下发生了。19D参见上题解析。reflect“反思”；hear“听到”；appreciate“欣赏”。20C根据该空后的“without WiFi was seeing the children make forts(堡垒)out of the sofa cushions，which they havent done in years”可知，没有了WiFi，孩子们可以在一起玩，这是愉快的(brigh

Thank you in advance.难项分析：第二处：去掉next前的in考查介词。表示时间

37、的名词前面有last, next等修饰时，前面不用介词。故将in去掉。第四处：anythingsomething考查代词。根据句意可知，应该是告诉“我”“一些事情(something)”，而不是“任何事情(anything)”。故将anything改为something。第九处：whetherif考查连词。whether和if作“是否”讲，有时可以互换，但是此处应表示的是条件，意为“如果”，这时只能用if。故将whether改为if。* 我国经济发展进入新常态，需要转变经济发展方式，改变粗放式增长模式，不断优化经济结构，实现经济健康可持续发展进区域协调发展，推进新型城镇化，推动城乡发展一体化因：我国经济发展还面临区域发展不平衡、城镇化水平不高、城乡发展不平衡不协调等现实挑战。
