36、player.”可以判斷出Chuck Hart是一籃球選手，故選B。A項(xiàng)是“團(tuán)隊(duì)”之意；C項(xiàng)表示“教練”而D項(xiàng)是“游戲，比賽”，故選B。38 副詞辨析。根據(jù)后面的句子“he was a great player”判斷出其與前面的句子之間是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，“盡管Hart由于他的糟糕的運(yùn)動(dòng)精神和聲名狼藉的行為舉止而備受批評(píng)，但他還算是一很好的籃球選手”，故用“Although”表示轉(zhuǎn)折引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句較為適合。A項(xiàng)引導(dǎo)的條件狀語從句，B項(xiàng)引導(dǎo)的是條件狀語從句而C項(xiàng)通常引導(dǎo)原因狀語從句，故選D。39名詞辨析 依據(jù)前面句子的意思，Hart的行為舉止聲名狼藉。A項(xiàng)表示“技術(shù)”而B項(xiàng)是“表現(xiàn)”，這兩項(xiàng)都與籃球運(yùn)

37、動(dòng)有關(guān)，D項(xiàng)是“行動(dòng)”之意，故C適合。40名詞辨析 依據(jù)前面的句子“All the guys on his team were wearing the name-brand shoes”可以判斷Travis 也是希望穿上有Hart名字的鞋子，故選A。42動(dòng)詞辨析 依據(jù)后面的“his amazing work in the community”此處構(gòu)成短語“be known for”表示“因?yàn)槎忻?，B項(xiàng)表示“鼓勵(lì)”，C項(xiàng)是“采納”之意而D項(xiàng)是“影響”的意思。43動(dòng)詞辨析 依據(jù)后面的“his heart stopped”可以判斷看見鞋子并不是他自己所想要的的時(shí)候，他呆住了。B項(xiàng)表示“凍住”能很

38、好地體現(xiàn)Travis當(dāng)時(shí)的狀態(tài)。A項(xiàng)表示“落下”，C項(xiàng)是“搖動(dòng)”而D項(xiàng)是“折疊”的意思。44動(dòng)詞辨析 依據(jù)上下文此處表達(dá)的是“鞋子買錯(cuò)了Travis會(huì)被其他的選手取笑的”故選C項(xiàng)的“tease”表示“取笑，嘲笑”之意。A項(xiàng)表示的是“質(zhì)疑”之意；B項(xiàng)表示“注意”；D項(xiàng)是“攻擊”的意思。45情態(tài)動(dòng)詞辨析 依據(jù)前面的“however”一詞可以判斷出Travis知道自己是不能把他的真實(shí)感受告訴他的爸爸，所以用“couldnt”，故選D。46動(dòng)詞短語辨析 依據(jù)上下文爸爸開車送Travis去上學(xué)，當(dāng)他們到達(dá)目的地即學(xué)校的門口時(shí)的狀況，此處值得是車子駛?cè)胄ｉT前，所以用A項(xiàng)短語“pull up”表示“駛?cè)?，?/p>

39、進(jìn)”之意。B項(xiàng)表示“舉起；張貼”；C項(xiàng)的短語是“拿起，從事，占據(jù)（時(shí)間、空間）”；D項(xiàng)表示“出現(xiàn)，（聲音）調(diào)高”之意。47副詞辨析 依據(jù)前面的話“Hey, Travis, wait a minute”以及后面爸爸的話可以推斷出此時(shí)爸爸說話的態(tài)度上略有遲疑，故選B項(xiàng)表示“猶豫地，遲疑地”比較適合。A項(xiàng)表示“平靜地，和平地”；C項(xiàng)表示“高興地”而D項(xiàng)則是“自然地，本質(zhì)上地”。48名詞辨析 依據(jù)前文“I saw the names of the two guys and made a(n)”以及后面的內(nèi)容可以知道爸爸在鞋子的選擇上是進(jìn)行過對(duì)比的，故此處有短語“make a choice”表示在“作出

40、選擇”。B項(xiàng)表示“努力”；C項(xiàng)是“評(píng)論”之意而D項(xiàng)則表示“錯(cuò)誤”。故選A。49動(dòng)詞辨析 根據(jù)后面的文章內(nèi)容可知爸爸選擇給Travis生日禮物是有他自己的想法的，特別是選了他所熟悉的明星球員的鞋子來送給兒子，旨在希望Travis能學(xué)會(huì)更多做人的道理，所以此處應(yīng)該用C項(xiàng)的“admire”表示“欽佩，喜歡”。40名詞辨析 依據(jù)下文爸爸對(duì)于Ryann較為熟悉尤其是球員在面對(duì)困難時(shí)的態(tài)度是值得分享給Travis的，所以此處選D最合適。A項(xiàng)表示“危險(xiǎn)”；B項(xiàng)表示“生氣”；C項(xiàng)則是“傷心，難過”之意。41名詞辨析 此處進(jìn)行上下文內(nèi)容的對(duì)比尤其是“You could have acted like a kid

41、 when you didnt get the shoes you wanted,”表示Travis本可以像個(gè)小孩子去表達(dá)對(duì)禮物的不滿意，意在表達(dá)一種如同小孩一般的無理取鬧但其實(shí)他沒有，所以C項(xiàng)適合。42連詞辨析 根據(jù)上句的表達(dá)以及下文“you were polite and made the best of it.”可以看出兩句話之間是明顯的轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故要使用but,所以選C。43名詞辨析 依據(jù)上下文可以判斷出爸爸希望有一天Travis的名字也可以出現(xiàn)在買一雙鞋子上。此處指的主要就是人的名字故選C項(xiàng)適合。A項(xiàng)表示“榮譽(yù)”；B項(xiàng)是“勇氣”；D項(xiàng)是“信念”之意?？键c(diǎn)：考查記敘文第三部分閱讀理解
