Ⅲ.阅读理解
Finally, for the first time in my life, I was going to move into a brandnew house and it was an absolute beauty.
I spent hours upon hours walking up and down the hallway just looking at that sunken living room. I had never actually seen one of those before and always thought they were only for rich people. It sure made me proud to now have one for my very own. I smiled real big and then put a foot down onto the first step, which led down onto the beautifully carpeted living room. Then I carefully looked to make sure I did not get any dirt on the golden colored carpet. Then I removed my shoes and walked all around the living room, feeling the soft, new, thick carpet beneath my feet.
I met the real estate agent (房地产中介)for the last time, signed the final papers and he handed me the keys. I jumped into my car and rushed as fast as I could to my rented mobile home to get the family and start the movingin process.
That was a very good day in my life, because no one in my family would ever have to live on the streets like I did as a young boy when running away from that abusive Florida orphanage. This house would be kept in brandnew condition, and would last forever and ever—so that all my children, grandchildren and great grandchildren would always have a nice, new looking place to live, no matter what.
That held true year after year and about five years later, we sold that immaculate house for top dollar. There was not a spot or smear (污渍)or hole anywhere in that beautiful house. Not even on the walls could you find a small nail hole that would have held a picture.
I was supposed to meet with the real estate agent who was selling our house later that evening and when I arrived, I was surprised to find the new owners of the house standing in the driveway. I parked my car, walked up and began talking with the older couple.
“This house is in perfect condition，” said the old man. “Perfect in every way. Not even a nail hole in any of the walls，” I told him proudly.
“It's really too bad that nobody lived here，” said the old woman. “I lived here for five whole years，” I said with a great big smile on my face. “No. You didn't live here for five years. You just stayed here for five years，” said the old lady.
All the way home I thought about what she said. What did she mean? How could they not be happy about buying a house in perfect condition and without any holes in the walls? I was very puzzled. Then it hit me like a ton of bricks. I quickly pulled over to the side of the road and just sat there thinking. The old lady was absolutely right.
Just because you stay in a house, it doesn't mean you really lived in it. Not unless you put your heart into it, enjoy it and do the things that make you happy while you are there—like walking into the living room and seeing pictures of the kids and the smiling faces of the grandchildren or watching them yelling their little lungs out under the sprinkler in your front yard, and yes, maybe even a picture of the old dog who decided to go to the bathroom on that beautiful carpet.
I sat there alone biting my bottom lip and feeling very much ashamed of what I had done by having lost five years of my life, not to mention what I had taken from my family without even realizing it. Living really is much more than just remembering yesterday with only your mind. It is walking into your home and living for today with your heart and your eyes. Those holes in the wall, when all the furniture is gone and the house is completely bare, are memory holes and without any memories, “You didn't really live there. You just stayed there.”
Today, our home in Brunswick, Georgia has so many darn pictures of kids, grandkids, friends and dogs on the walls that it might collapse one day. And if it does, that will be very sad for me.
36．The underlined word “immaculate”in the fifth paragraph probably means “________”．
A．peaceful
B．perfect
C．practical
D．permanent

A．The writer was excited when he moved into a brandnew house.
B．The writer was satisfied with the sunken living room.
C．The writer was particular about the brandnew house.

38．At last, the writer realized ________.
A．staying at a house meant doing everything meaningful
B．living in a house didn't have the same meaning as staying in a house
C．staying at a house was equal to living in a house
D．looking at the smiling faces of the grandchildren was a happy thing
39．From the passage, we can infer that ________.
A．a brandnew house was more important than the life itself
B．enjoying life was far more important than keeping a house perfect
C．there was no point in remaining memories in a house
D．how to live a happy life remained to be discussed
40．In order to keep the house in good condition, the writer did the following EXCEPT ________.
A．walked on the carpet carefully
B．kept the walls clean
C．didn't put any dirt on the carpet
D．used the house as he liked

答案
课时作业(四)
Ⅰ.1.B 句意为：海军中的一员在四天后被救了。这里只是对过去事实的描述，所以用一般过去时。
2．C 在交际用语中考查分隔式定语从句的引导词。代替指人的先行词All the storytellers，在从句中作主语，所以用who。
3．A the number of “……的数量”，修饰可数名词，谓语动词用单数；a number of “许多，很多”，后接可数名词复数形式，作主语时谓语动词用复数。
4．D 句意：我们不能在饭店吃午餐，因为没有一个人带钱。这里要用完全否定，故选D项。A、B项都是部分否定；C项形式不对。
5．B 考查交际用语。根据答语的后一句可知答话人认为对方虽然在考试中得了第一名，但是名不副实，此处come on意为“得了吧”，表示知道某人所说的话不正确，符合语境。
6．C 考查动词辨析。根据句意可知父母想庇护孩子们不受到任何伤害。shelter作动词可表示“保护；庇护”。spot “弄脏，认出，发现，定位”；dismiss “开除，使解散”；distinguish “区别”。
7．C 考查定语从句的用法。句意：毕业后我想找一份能把我在学校学的知识用上的工作。在这里a job是先行词，I can use what I have learnt at school是定语从句，在定语从句中缺少地点状语in the job。故选C项。
8．B 考查名词辨析。这几个词中只有event可以作“比赛项目”讲。句意为：校运动会下个月就要举行了，你打算报名参加哪些项目呢？
9．B 考查名词辨析。句意为：他的突然发怒，使会议不愉快地结束了。burst在这里强调的是感情的突然释放或突然迸发。干扰项express作名词时，意为“快车，快递”，没有“表情”之意。
10．B congratulate sb. on (doing)sth 表示“祝贺某人某事”，其中介词 on 不能换成介词for。
11．D 考查时态和语态。句意为：被困在河里五个小时，小偷看上去很苍白无望。be trapped in…“被困在……”。从主句的时态和整个语境看，此处应用过去完成时的被动语态。
12．D 考查副词辨析。high表示具体高度； highly则表示抽象意义，此处二者均为副词。句意为：尽管他在十岁时就残疾了，然而他目标很高，他的同学对此评价很高。
13．B 考查judge的用法。judging from…是固定用法，常用作插入语。句意为：根据他所说的话判断，他一定是一个诚实的人。
