完形填空专练（四）

这是一篇夹叙夹议的短文。作者每天上班都能见到一位女士，相见频频，却也未曾相识（三年如一日，已使作者习以为常，熟视无睹）。直到某一天此人突然消失，作者才顿感怅然若失，就连该女士的季节换装，此时仍历历在目。难道这就是所说的：“一旦失去，才觉珍贵”吗？

1. B。take... for example是“以……为例”的意思。但在本空中，take的宾语the neatly-dressed  woman...太长了，所以把for  example提到了宾语之前。

2. C。从下文可见，作者过去常见到她。

3. A。除C项外（which本身已起到限定词的作用，不可再直接与冠词连用），另外三个选项均可放在no matter之后，但此处仅有what可以作like的宾语。

4. D。厚重的衣服、羊毛手套，自然是下雪天的穿戴。

5. B。此处的bring sth out是引申意义：“夏季使她穿出了……衣服”。

6. A。从对她的描述，便能“清楚地”看出她是一位普通的职业女性。

7. C。她的突然消失，使作者記起了她。这是本文要反映的主题（首段已明示）。

8. D。表达动作的程度时，多用much修饰。

9. B。这是对上句的进一步解释。

10. B。作者担心她出了意外，或者更“糟糕”的事。

11. D。只是对她消失的推测。

12. C。从作者的描述已知，自己一直想起她，好像“认识”她似的。

13. D。这正是日常生活中的事。

14. B。下句的送奶工、溜狗人等，不可能是朋友、客人和旅行者，只能是“熟悉的陌生人”。

15. A。溜狗的时间、路线等应是“有规律的”。

16. C。由最后一句及全文意义，作者认为，这些人都很“重要”。

17. D。这句意义为：这一切都强化了我们对周围及一切的认识。sense 意为“认识”。

18. B。这句话是作者的假设。

19. C。下句已有答案的提示。

20. A。擦肩而过之人，哪能知其姓名？

Hello， Jack！ How are you doing now？ Im doing very well in London. Ive been here for three months and we havent gotten in touch with each other for so long. I hope you dont think Ive forgotten you. There are so many things to do and so many places to see every day that I havent had enough time to write to you. Ill start my studies at Kings College next week. That is， of course， the most important thing for me. So far Ive been learning about Britain as well as ways of living here. When it comes to London， there are plenty of books you can read and plenty of pictures you can look at. Im sure youll be interested in knowing what I think about the life here. Some of the customs here are different and interesting. For example， people here dont shake hands as much as we do in China.  During the first few weeks， I was often surprised because people didnt hold out their hands when I met them. Men raise their hats to women but not to each other. When the people here walk or drive， they use the left side of the road instead of the right one as we Chinese do.

M： A very special group of dogs are known as “Therapy Dogs”. The dogs are trained to be calm and quiet. Loud noises and unfamiliar places dont frighten them. They enjoy spending time with people. Some therapy dogs go into places such as hospitals and nursing homes. When the patients visit with the dogs， the patients are cheered up. Therapy dogs can improve peoples health as well. Studies show that when people pet animals， their blood pressure and heart rates go down. They are calmer， and their mood improves. Other therapy dogs work in schools and libraries. In one town in California， therapy dogs have become childrens reading buddies. The dogs belong to a therapy dog group called PAWS for Healing. Eight of these special dogs have been trained to be listening companions for young readers. The local library is trying to encourage kids to enjoy reading more. The children are invited to meet at the library. The dogs make a great audience. Sometimes， reading in front of their peers makes kids nervous. The dogs are quiet and attentive. These therapy dogs are making a difference in the lives of the children they visit. The library and the teachers are very happy with the program.

Dear Mr. Smith，

Hows everything going？ We moved into our new house at Wenyuan Road， on March 1st， 2021. The new residential area is very nice with a beautiful lake in the middle and all kinds of trees and flowers here and there. There are also rockeries，pavilions， a waterfall and a winding corridor， which make a garden of our residential area. In fact， it was the delicate design that helped us make up our mind to buy the house here. The structure of our house is also quite reasonable. What pleases me most is that I can have a separate study. It is really comfortable for us to live in our new house.

We would be very happy if you and your wife could come and visit us in our new house.

Hope to see you soon.

Yours，

M： How long did it take you to write the book？

聽第10段材料，回答第17至20题。

W： If you visit America， you should be aware of some of the American customs and habits. All restaurants in America accept cash for payment， and most also accept credit cards. You will seldom find a restaurant that accepts checks. It is common to have to wait for a table in a popular restaurant.

There are many popular restaurants that do not accept reservations， or will only accept reservations for large parties， for example， six or more people. Many restaurants in America have a license to serve alcohol. The drinking age in America is 21.

Tipping is another common custom. American restaurants do not add a service charge to the bill. Therefore， it is expected that the customer will leave a tip for the server. The common practice is to leave a tip that is equal to 15% of the total bill for acceptable service， and about 20% for superior service. Smoking in America is not always considered to be a good social habit. Smoking in public is not as common in America as in many other countries. Generally， Americans smoke less than Europeans and much less than Asians. It is a fact that smoking is becoming less and less socially acceptable. Smoking is forbidden in many places. The legal smoking age in America is 18.

Dear Johnny，

I am Li Hua， a student from China. Im writing to ask about my stay with your family.

To begin with， Id like to express my thanks for your kindness of accepting me. To better prepare for my life in Australia， Id like to know if I will have a room for myself and if there is a kitchen I can use. I plan to have lunch at school，and it would be great if I could join you for breakfast and supper. Finally could you tell me how far your place is from the school？ Is it within walking distance or do I need to take a bus？

I am excited about my visit to Australia. I am looking forward to seeing you soon.

Yours respectfully，

Li Hua
