可知,双臂紧紧地交叉在胸前是一种典型的防御姿势,表明你在保护自己。再结合常识可知,双臂紧紧地交叉在胸前可能仅仅说明你很寒冷,故D项正确。Ⅲ.完形填空ThereIstoodwithtearsinmyeyes.Ilookedatafacewhichwasso1thatImightmistakeitformyown.Istared2herindisbelief.Itfeltlikeadream.Ihuggedher;shewasreal.Adoptedataveryyoungage,I3surroundedbypeopleIlovedasfamily.4,thefacesweren'tlikemine.Theywerepeoplethatlovedme.AsIgotolder,thecuriositytolearnmoreaboutmyselftookholdanddidn't5.WhowasI?WheredidIcomefrom?Attheageof21,Iwasgiventhechanceto6itoutthankstomyadoptiveparents'7.Theyaccompaniedmetotheadoptionagency.Thenthestaff8theprocessoffindingmybirthmother.Buttheprocesswas9andIdidn'texpecttherewouldbemanycomplexprocedures.Andtheagencyalsohadcautiontomovetheprocedurestoensurebothparties'privacyespecially10mybirthmotherdidn'tchoosetomeetme.Monthslatertheagencytoldmethatmybirthmotherwasfoundandthatshe11tomeetme.Wewereexcited.Myparentssaidmybirthmothermadegreat12asshegavemeaway,whichallowedthemtosupportthefamily.Otherwise,itwouldn'thavebeenpossibleontheirown.Iwas13whatmybirthmothermightbedoingandwhatshemightlooklike.Icreateda(n)14inmyhead.Afteralongprocess,themomentfinallycame—wereunited.Shesaidshehadmadea(n)15decision,whenwatchingmeleavewithonlythehopethatanotherfamilycouldprovidewhatshecouldn't.Shesaidshehesitatedforlongbutknewshewasright.Iknewshelovedmeverymuch.1.A.familiar B.uglyC.oldD.unclear2.A.intoB.toC.atD.on3.A.stoodupB.cameupC.warmedupD.grewup4.A.HoweverB.MeanwhileC.ThereforeD.Instead5.A.helpB.stopC.increaseD.arrive6.A.figureB.pickC.turnD.sort7.A.requestB.appreciationC.supportD.forgiveness8.A.delayedB.updatedC.refusedD.explained

12.D 根据语境可知,这里表示做出了牺牲,故选D。13.A 根据常识以及“whatmybirthmothermightbedoingandwhatshemightlooklike”可知,作者想知道自己的生母是做什么的,她长什么样。故选A。14.B 作者在没有见到生母之前,作者一直在幻想生母的样子,所以脑海中会出现画面。故选B。15.D 根据下文“Shesaidshehesitatedforlongbutknewshewasright.”可知,作者的生母犹豫了很长一段时间,也很爱作者,所以这是一个艰难的决定,故选D。Ⅳ.语法填空PollutiontakesawayallthebeautyofthebeachesofHawaii.Ihatetogotothebeacheson1.________(sun)weekendsandseerubbishbagslyingonthesand,cigarettebutts(烟头)2.________(bury)inthesand,andsodacansfloatingintheocean.OnethingthatreallyannoysmeisthatIsee3.________(tour)whovisitHawaiileavetheirrubbishonthebeaches.Iwasalwaystaughtafterdrinkingsodatothrowthecanintotheplace4.________itshouldstay—thetrashcan.Anotherthingthatannoysmeisthatsomepeoplewalkrightbyrubbish5.________pretendthatit'snotthere.Thedogsorthefisharenottoblame6.______it.It'sourfaultandwemustblame7.________(we).Everyonehastodohisorherpart8.________(solve)thisproblem.Itcan'tbedifficulttodothejob.Therearealotofthingsthatwecando.Firstofall,wecanhelppickuprubbishalongthebeaches.Wecouldalsoformorganisationsthathelpcleanupourbeaches.More9.________(important),weneedtostartnowbeforethebeaches10.________(damage)beyondrepair.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了海滩污染的问题。1.sunny 考查形容词。修饰名词一般用形容词,故用形容词sunny修饰其后的名词weekends。2.buried 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,bury和其逻辑主语cigarettebutts构成动宾关系,故用其过去分词形式作宾语补足语。3.tourists 考查词形转换。结合定语从句的关系词who可知,此处的先行词为表示人的名词,且定语从句中的谓语动词为复数,故用名词复数形式。4.where 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,在从句中作地点状语,修饰先行词theplace,故填where。5.but 考查连词。根据语境可知,空处前后存在逻辑上的转折关系,故用连词but。6.for 考查固定词组。betoblameforsth.“对某事负有责任”,故用介词for。7.ourselves 考查代词。与句子主语we呼应,此处应用反身代词ourselves作动词blame的宾语。8.tosolve 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处应用动词不定式,表目的。
9.importantly 考查副词。副词一般修饰形容词、副词、动词,甚至整个句子,在句子中作状语。故用副词importantly,修饰整个句子。10.aredamaged 考查动词的时态和语态。分析句子结构可知,damage和主语thebeaches之间是被动关系,根据该句中的“need”可知,此处叙述一般的情况,故用一般现在时的被动语态。
