A Shoe Pattern
Harry is eighteen now. He studies in a middle school. His parents like him very much and hope he can become a famous man. So they often tell him to study hard and they do all for him. They call him at six in the morning，after breakfast his father takes him to school in hin car and in the afternoon，as soon as the young man comes back, the supper is ready. Of course, he never washes his clothes or goes to buy something in shops.
Once Harry’s father was sent to London on business. He would stay there for half a year. Leaving, he told his wife to take good care of their son. The woman had to get up earlier and did all that her husband did before. And two months later she was so tired that she was ill in bed. Now the young man got into trouble. He couldn’t do any housework. He had to do as his mother told him. Even he didn’t know where to get on the bus!
Yesterday Harry’s mother found his shoes were worn out and told him to buy a new pair in the shop. But he didn’t know how to choose. The woman had a sigh(叹息) and gave him a shoe pattern(鞋样) and told him to buy a pair of shoes himself. It’s Saturday today and Harry doesn’t go to school. With a policeman’s help, he found a shop. The shopkeeper was friendly to him. The man brought a lot of shoes and asked him to choose. When he was trying on a pair, suddenly he remembered something and took them off. The man was surprised and asked，“What’s the matter，young man？”
“I’m sorry，I’ve left the shoe pattern at home！”

答案

Ⅲ.1.regardless of other people’s feelings 2.busy himself writing 3.rely purely on body language 4.hide his feelings if everything is all right 5.is best known for
6．except for
Ⅳ.1.B [except后跟一个由that引导的宾语从句，句意为：除颜色有点亮之外，这件衣服非常适合他。]
2．D [句意为：这家旅馆并不特别好，但是我住过许多比它更差的旅馆。由于The hotel wasn’t particularly good中的时态是一般过去时态，所以stay这一动作应发生在描述情况之前，故须用过去完成时态。]
3．C [句意为：当今人们越来越依赖计算机工作。rely...on/upon...指望或依靠……，符合语境。depend应和on搭配。trust信任，不符合语境。]
4．D [for a long time与完成时连用，且前一句中用了一般过去时，因此此处应用过去完成时态。]
5．D [convince sb.of sth.使某人相信某事。]
6．B [到过去某个时间为止所完成的动作用过去完成时态。]
7．B [句意为：老师不介意我们论文中出的错误，耐心地批改。regardless of是固定搭配，表示“不顾，不管”。]
8．C [本题考查动词的时态。由I have got a headache.现在完成时形式可知用现在完成进行时表示动作“从过去开始持续至今且还会进行下去”，体现过去开始的动作对现在的影响及结果。]
9．D [put on在此意为“增加(体重)”。put up建造；put down记下，放下；put away把……收起来。]
10．C [句意为：——对不起打断你了，请继续。——刚才我说到哪儿了？——你刚才在说你不喜欢你父亲的工作。过去进行时表示在过去某一时刻或某段时间正在进行的动作。句中的“我”在被打断之时正在说不喜欢父亲的工作，因此用过去进行时。]
Ⅴ.1.A [推理判断题。由第二段中“The woman had to get up earlier and did all that her husband did before.”可以推断以前是她的丈夫做这些事的，因此应该选择A。]
2．D [细节理解题。由第一段中“So they often tell him to study hard and they do all for him.”可知答案为D。]
3．A [推理判断题。根据第二段中“Once Harry’s father was sent to London on business.He would stay there for half a year.”可知答案为A。]
4．B [细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Even he didn’t know where to get on the bus！”可知答案为B。]
