【解析】考查名词的辨析。根据后文中两个人对于房子描述可以看出俩人第一眼看见这个房子就爱上了这个房子,所以选择love 是最合理的。 21.【答案】B 【解析】考查名词的辨析。根据下文可以推断这对老夫妻传达了婚姻的温暖和幸福给他们两个人,而pride“骄傲”,challenge“挑战”,desire“欲望,要求”放在这里就不合适了。 22.【答案】D 【解析】考查宾语从句引导词的选择。两个人幻想着住在那里时生活将会是什么样子,like后面缺少宾语,所以选择what。 23.【答案】B 【解析】考查名词的辨析。几天之后,夫妻二人做了一个报价,只有offer可以表示提供报价,其他的名词均不合适,因此选择B。 24.【答案】D 【解析】考查动词短语的辨析。因为文中提到了surprisingly即“令人吃惊的是”,以后后面提到的那对老夫妻的改价,可以得知这对老夫妻并没有嘲笑他们,选择D。 25.【答案】A 【解析】考查介词的辨析。根据第24题可知,年轻夫妻非但没有被嘲笑,反而赢得了老夫妻的降低价格,因此选择instead表示“取而代之”。 26.【答案】C 【解析】考查形容词的辨析和比较级。根据前后文可知价格降低了很多,所以应该选择less。 27.【答案】B 【解析】考查形容词的辨析。根据后文有另外的人给了一个更高的价格可以推断这个消息无疑是很令他们俩人失望的,所以选择B。 28.【答案】D 【解析】考查名词的辨析和前后文的逻辑。通过后文可以得出,年轻夫妻决定直接和房子的主人进行交谈,所以选择D。 29.【答案】B 【解析】考查介词的辨析。根据后文was thousands of dollars less than the other buyers’ bid可以得知,年轻夫妻给出的价格仍然低于另外买家的价格。 30.【答案】D 【解析】考查连词的辨析。“我们知道这个事实,但是我们还是要尝试一下。”通过上下文可4

以得知,年轻夫妻决定背水一战了,所以选择表示转折关系的but。 31.【答案】D 【解析】考查动词的辨析。通过后文中冒号后面的一系列内容可以得知这对老夫妻知道了年轻夫妻所做的事情并且被他们深深感动了,所以应该是老夫妻解释他们低价买房子的理由,选择D。 32.【答案】C 【解析】考查动词的辨析。根据前后文可知老夫妻觉得年轻夫妻会懂得珍惜和感激,所以选择appreciate。 33.【答案】A 【解析】考查名词的辨析。根据全篇文章的理解,我们不难得出老夫妻低价卖房子肯定是有很大的损失,所以选择loss。 34.【答案】B 【解析】考查名词的辨析。通过后文中“一个提前的结婚礼物”,可以得知老夫妻把房子的差价当作给年轻夫妻的礼物,因此选择difference。 35.【答案】A 【解析】考查形容词的辨析。通篇来看,作者被这对老夫妻感动了,他们感受到了人性的善良之处,所以选择kind。 2.
