【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己帮助别人的一次经历。作者的一个小小的帮助对自己、对别人都起了很大的作用,产生了很好的影响。

1．if/whether 考查宾语从句。句意：他面带笑容问“我”是否可以给他一些钱。结合句意可知,此处是if/whether引导的宾语从句。故填if/whether。

2．legs 考查名词复数。根据both意为“两个都”可知,后面用名词复数。故填legs。

3．successfully 考查词性转化。句意：他说,如果医生手术成功,他可以参加一项工作培训。此处是副词修饰动词。故填successfully。

4．to show 考查不定式。句意：“我”甚至要求他把腿露出来。ask sb. to do sth. 表示“要求某人做某事”。故填to show。

5．me 考查代词。句意：这次“我”确信他在欺骗“我”。此处用宾格作宾语。故填me。

6．moving 考查词性转化。句意：他说的话是令人感动的。moving意为“令人感动的”。故填moving。

7．cheated 考查过去分词。句意：他想把钱还给“我”,这样“我”就不会觉得被骗了,将来还会继续帮助那些需要帮助的人。feel cheated意为“感到被骗”,所以此处用过去分词。故填cheated。

8．in 考查介词。句意同第7题。in need意为“需要”。故填in。

9．ran 考查动词的时态。句意：“我”不知道,那天他是否猜到了“我”的表情,但泪水顺着“我”的脸流下来。结合句意可知,句子用一般过去时态。故填ran。

10．or 考查连词。句意：那天,“我”向他保证,如果“我”有机会,无论机会大小,“我”都会继续帮助别人。此处表示选择。故填or。

Ⅱ．阅读理解

Seven-year-old artist Kieron Williamson has sold his 16 watercolours for

￡ 17,000 in just 14 minutes, setting the world record for the youngest successful 4 painter.

His latest paintings of landscapes, seascapes and churches were supposed to be

on display for a month at the Picturecraft Gallery in Holt. They went on sale at

9 a. m. but were bought by 9：14 a. m. , some by telephone from abroad.

Kieron is red hot. People are saying that he could become an all-time great artist.

They want his paintings as investments because they think the price will go up.

The last child artist was Picasso. And Kieron is getting better and better. The

pace at which he learns is quite amazing. He has a very mature mind and has mastered

certain techniques at an early stage which some artists would take years to perfect.

His work has been very unusual and impressive. His use of tone, colour and light

is wonderful. The way he gets his paintings to do the talking is extremely good.
