【答案与解析】文章讲述了Joey一出生便被医生认定不能正常地跑动,但是Joey的父母一直没有把这个情况告诉他。因此Joey就在这种毫不知情的情况下,凭借着自身的努力,终于如愿以偿地入选了校田径队。
1. A。联系此处的语境,再对照选项,可知这里应是“他生命中的头三年是在医院里度过的”。spend有“花时间于……,度过”的意思,并且spend还可做及物动词,所以放在此处,不仅符合此处的语境,而且也符合此句的语法结构。故答案选A。
2. D。根据前文中The doctors said that with treatment he would be able to walk,可知医生认为的儿子在经过治疗后是能够走路的。因此可推出此处是“在他8岁时,当你看到他走路,你察觉不出他有什么问题”。故答案选D。
3. C。联系此处的语境,再对照选项,可知这里应是“邻居家的孩子在他们做游戏时总是跑来跑去”。during的意思为“在……期间”,放在此处符合此处的语境。故答案选C。
4. B。前文提到医生认为的儿子将不能正常地跑动,而后文则提到没有把这个情况告诉给他的儿子,因此Joey不知道。所以综合前后文,可知此处是“Joey也跳、也跑、也玩耍”。故答案选B。
5. A。联系此处的语境,再对照选项,可知这里应是“他也许不能像其他的小朋友那样能够正常地跑动”。be able to do的意思为“能够做……事”,故答案选A。
6. B。根据后文中“He was in seventh grade — the other six team members were all eighth graders”,可推知这里是“在七年级时他决定参加校田径队”。故答案选B。
7. D。前文提到Joey每天坚持训练,而且练得比其他任何人都勤,后文则讲述只有顶尖的七名选手能被选中,因此综合前后文的内容联系,不难得出前后文之间形成了一个因果关系,即Joey每天刻苦训练是因为只有顶尖的七名选手能被选中。故答案选D。
8. C。联系此处的语境,再对照选项,可知这里应是“只有顶尖的七名选手能被选中代表学校参赛”。故答案选C。
9. D。这里提到Joey每天坚持跑4~5英里,即使在他发烧的时候也没有中断,而前文提到Joey早在出生时就被医生认定是不能正常地跑动,所以根据逻辑思维,作为Joey的家长此时一定感到很担心。故答案选D(from www.zkenglish.com)。
10. D。根据前文综述,再对照选项,可得出这里是在讲述决定在Joey放学后来找他。故答案选D。
11. D。 根据后文中He has two more miles to go,再对照选项,可推知此处是“我发现他已经在跑了”。故答案选D。
12. D。 联系此处的语境,再对照选项,可知这里应是“他径直地看着前方,并且一直跑着”。故答案选D。
13. B。 联系此处的语境,再对照选项,可知这里应是“两周后,队员名单被公布出来了”,再因为Joey选择的是跑步运动,故答案选B。
14. C。根据前文中We didn’t tell him he probably would never make the team,再对照选项,可推知此处应填make,即根据前文中的相同或类似表述可得出。再因为make有“作为……的一分子”的意思,放在此处,意思为Joey加入了田径队。故答案选C。
15. D。根据前文中“We never told him he couldn’t do it… so he didn’t know”,再结合Joey入选校田径队的事实,可推知此处要表达的内容是“他确实参加了”,即Joey是在一种毫不知情的情况下参加了田径队。take的意思有“参加,加入”,故答案选D。
