My father was in the navy, which meant that my mother was married to both my father and the sea. As was often the case, we had to pack our belongings into boxes and 1 those we had grown to love. We would arrive at our new home and find ourselves once again 2 at the pier (码头) waving good-bye to my father as his 3 pulled him away from us. My mother would turn my brother and me around before the ship was out of 4 , wipe our tears, and take us back home to start the process of 5 in the new environment again.
Throughout the years of changing 6 , schools and friends, there remained one constant in my childhood—my mother. For both my 7 and I, she was the cook, waitress and teacher. She played these roles while 8 some type of part-time job. Leaving a promising career is just one of the 9 which my mother made for my family as we moved around the world with our father every three years or so. 10 she had to deal with only a small budget, my mother, 11 , managed to make each house to be the very home that is safe and 12 .
This probably sounds like a depressing way to live, 13 with two small children: "single" parenthood, short-term friendships, and the inability (无能) to 14 a career or establish a home. But it was not for my mother. She turned this 15 into adventure for us all! Each relocation (变换位置) was a chance to 16 another part of the world. My mother greeted each new culture, climate and neighborhood. Each new house was a 17 to rearrange furniture, make curtains and 18 pictures. Every part-time job was an opportunity to learn something new and work with interesting people.
No matter how difficult the life was, she was always having a 19 attitude. She always had strength in the face of struggle and change. My mother was so 20 all those years during my childhood—she was my island in a sea of change. She is my hero.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。很多书店位于查令十字街上，查令十字街成为
了伦敦文化的地标。但是，随着大量书店的关闭，如何将英国文化传统继续下去已经成了
一个问题。不同的群体针对这个问题提出了不同的观点和看法。
（1）考查名词。no kidding“不开玩笑，说真的”；no doubt“毫无疑问”；no way“没门”；no
problem“没问题”。根据上文可知，查令十字街是伦敦最著名的书店街。那里有欧洲最大的女性书店，还有欧洲第一个侦探小说店，有独立的书店，也有大的连锁店。由此可以推知，查令十字街非常值得参观，这是毋庸置疑的。故选B。
（2）考查动词。know“认识，知道”；select“挑选”；learn“学习”；define“下定义”。查令十字街84号被称之为"爱情圣经"。be known as固定短语，"被称为……，作为……而出名"，选A。
（3）考查动词。present“颁发，授予”；burst“爆裂，炸开”；divide“划分”；translate“翻译”。查令十字街84号被翻译成几十种语言。选D。
（4）考查形容词。geographical“地理学的，地理的”；academic“学术的，学业的”；cultural“文化的”；traditional“传统的”。根据下文"attracting many literary enthusiasts and tourists with its unique literary charm"可知，查林街已成为伦敦的一个文化地标，以其独特的文学魅力吸引了众多文学爱好者和游客。选C。
（5）考查动词。discover“发现”；research“研究”；interpret“口译，解释”；continue“继续”。随着大量连锁书店的倒闭，很多独立的书店开始思考如何将英国文学传统传承下去，即：继续下去。故选D。
（6）考查形容词（名词）。survival“幸存，生存”；m aterial“材料”；moral“道德的”；spiritual“精神上的”。根据上文中的"how to continue the Britain literacy traditions"可知，他们聚集在一起探讨的是未来书店的生存模式。故选A。
（7）考查名词。resolution“决心”；connection“连接”；transition“转变，过渡”；question“问题”。从目前的商业模式来看，那些能够生存的人正在完成从卖书到卖生活的转变。from selling books to selling life这是一种转变，故选C。
（8）考查形容词（名词）。commercial“商业的”；confidential“秘密的，机密的”；academic“学业的，学术的”；logic“逻辑（学）”。根据上文"current business model"可知，该处应指：也许英国的文学生活方式应该被认为是最重要的商业秘密。选A。
（9）考查动词短语。focus on“聚焦于，集中于”；rely on“依靠，依赖”；take on“呈现……面貌”；carry on“继续”。Alex说他们把努力集中在提高顾客的体验上。下文中的"The focus of the future physical bookstore is on creating an atmosphere."也是提示。选A。
（10）考查副词。meanwhile“与此同时”；therefore“因此”；moreover“此外，而且”；nevertheless“然而，不过”。根据上文，未来实体书店的重点是营造一种氛围。酒吧和咖啡店有助于创造一种氛围，所以，酒吧和咖啡店是书店必不可少的部分。故上下文之间是因果关系。故选B。
（11）考查名词。val ue“价值”；complex“错综复杂的组合，复合体”；symbol“象征，标志”；identity“身份”。根据下文的"attending concerts, watching movies, or participating in discussions"可知，书店应该是文化的综合体，人们在这里可以听音乐会，看电影，参加讨论会等。也就是说，未来的书店应该朝着多元化发展，兼具多种功能。故选B。
（12）考查动词。expect“期望，预料”；explode“爆炸”；expand“扩充，扩展”；explor e“探索”。根据下文 "beyond selling books and provide cultural services"可知，该处指实体书店应该扩展它们的经营范围，要超越卖书这个局限，要为顾客提供文化服务。故选C。
（13）考查动词。adjust“调整”；activate“使起作用，使运作”；acquire“获得，得到”；
adopt“收养，采纳”。其他作家认为书店可以采取会员制。选D。
（14）考查介词短语。in addition to“除……之外还……”；instead of“代替”；excep t for“ 除了”；because of“因为”。结合实际情况可知，一个会员除了可以享受打折的优惠之外，还
应该享受听演讲，参加文学聚会等活动的机会。故选A。
（15）考查动词。stimulate“刺激，激发”；conduct“执行，实施”；resolve“解决”；postpone“推迟，使延期”。该处指"要为儿童及学生举办相应的会员活动"。开展活动应该用

完形填空练习 【考点分析】主要考查语法知识、单词拼写能力和逻辑推理能力等，对基础相对薄弱的学生，尤其是英语语法基础相对薄弱的学生有一定的难度。 【复习策略】掌握句子的基本结构 首先，我们必须熟练掌握简单句的基本句型结构： （1）主语+谓语（+宾语+宾补） （2）主语+系动词+表语 其次，我们要充分了解充当各个句子成分的典型词类： （1）充当主语或宾语的典型词类是名词或代词。此外，还有动名词、不定式短语等。 （2）充当谓语的一定是动词。 （3）充当补语或表语的典型词类是形容词。 （4）在名词前作定语的典型词类是形容词或形容词性物主代词。 （5）作状语的典型词类是副词。 再次，我们还要掌握句子的扩展结构：两个或几个简单句之间若不用句号或分号，就必须要用连词，否则，句子的结构就不完整。连词主要有以下四类： （1）用and,but,or,while(而，却)，when（就在这个时候）等构成并列句。用if,unless,before,after,until,although,though,as,since,because,so,so that 等构成含状语从句的复合句（这里要注意区分一下复杂句和复合句，复合句是包含在复杂句这个概念里面的,在下文的基础写作部分有提到）。 （3）用who,which,that,when,where,why等构成含定语从句的复合句。（这里要提醒考生的是往往不给任何提示的空就是填连词或关系词的，但也须结合句子
结构来分析。） （4）用that,if/whether(是否)，wh-等构成含名词性从句的复合句。 【解题方法】用句子结构分析法巧解语法填空.分析句子的结构对解答语法填空题很有帮助。在解答语法填空题时，分析句子结构可以迅速确定所要填的词语的词类或大致方向，若再结合语境就可以很快得出具体的词语或词形，结合语境方面要特别注意短文的时态和上下文中的一些提示。 【经典例题】阅读下面短文，根据上下文填入适当的词语，或使用括号中的词语的适当形式填空，并将答案填写在答题卡上标号的相应位置。 The Internet has become part of young people’s life. ____1____ report shows that 38% of students often use the Internet .
