　　The Pecan Thief

　　When I was six years old, I was visiting my grandfather’s farm in Kansas. Grandpa had sent me into the　1　to gather pecans for us to enjoy later.

　　Pecan picking was really　2　work and my little basket was only half full. I wasn’t about to　3　Grandpa down. Just then something caught my　4　. A large brown squirrel was a few feet away. I watched as he picked up a pecan, hurried to a tree and　5　in a large hole in the trunk. A moment later the squirrel　6　out and climbed down to the ground to pick up another nut.

　　Not so　7　anymore, I thought. I dashed over to the tree and looked into the hole. It was　8　with pecans! Golden pecans were right there for taking. This was my　9　. Handful by handful, I scooped all of those pecans into my basket. Now it was full! I was so　10　of myself. I couldn’t wait to show Grandpa all the pecans. 　11　, I ran back and shouted, “Look at all the pecans! ”He looked into the basket and said, “Well, well, how did you find so many? ”I told him how I’d　12　the squirrel and taken the pecans from his hiding place.

　　Grandpa congratulated me on how smart I’d been in observing the squirrel and his habits. Then he did something that　13　me. He handed the basket back to me and put his arm gently　14　my shoulders.

　　“That squirrel worked very hard to gather his winter　15　of food. ”he said. “Now that all of his pecans are gone, don’t you think that little squirrel will　16　the cold winter? ”

　　“I didn’t think about that. ”I said.

　　Suddenly I felt a bit　18　. The image of the starving squirrel wouldn’t　19　my mind. There was only one thing I could do. I carried the basket back to the tree and poured all the nuts into the hole.

　　Ⅲ. 閱讀理解Around 200 people who thought their only experience of the London 2024 Olympic Games would be minor heats of synchronized swimming(花樣游泳)have received an unexpected change to the men’s 100m final because of an embarrassing ticketing mistake.

　　The London 2024 Organizing Committee (Locog) confirmed on Wednesday that an error in its ticket selling had led to four synchronized swimming competitions being oversold by 10, 000 tickets.

　　Locog and its ticket agent spent the Christmas period contacting ticket holders and offering them alternatives that included the tickets they had applied for but unsuccessful. The changes need no additional cost. It has also offered to return any discrepancy(差額)if the new tickets cost less than the originals. Locog said the replacement tickets would come from a number of unsold seats across the Olympic Games and it was doing all it could to make up the error to the fans who bought tickets.

　　Locog said the error occurred in the summer, between the first and second round of ticket sales, when a member of staff made a mistake, entering“20, 000”into the computer rather than the correct figure of 10, 000 remaining tickets. The error was discovered when Locog checked the number of tickets that had been sold against the final seating numbers, and began contacting ticket holders before Christmas.

　　Thousands of ticket holders have already struck lucky, changing to tickets for major events including swimming and athletics finals, and in around 200 cases the hottest of all, the men’s 100m final. Locog said the decision to award 100m final tickets was made because one of the synchronized swimming competitions was on the same afternoon as the event, August 5.

　　1. As a result of the ticketing mistake, about 200 people　.

　　A. will luckily be able to watch the men’s 100m final

　　B. will not enjoy the synchronized swimming events

　　C. will have to return their tickets

　　D. have applied for tickets for the men’s 100m final

　　2. In order to solve the problem, the Locog　.

　　A. required the holders to return the tickets

　　B. allowed the holders to apply for another ticket

　　C. would charge the discrepancy for changing the tickets

　　D. offered to change the tickets without any extra cost

　　3. How many ticket holders will have to change their tickets?

　　A. 200.

　　B. 10, 000.

　　C. 20, 000.

　　D. 30, 000.

　　4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

　　A. The synchronized swimming is the hottest of the Olympics.

　　B. Thousands of ticket holders refused to change their tickets.

　　C. The men’s 100m final will take place on August 5, 2024.

　　D. The number of tickets for synchronized swimming is 10, 000.

　　答案解析

　　Ⅰ.1.【解析】選B。考查非謂語動詞。句意: 面對危險, 這個16歲的女孩相當鎮靜。be faced with面臨, 面對, 此處為過去分詞短語作狀語。

　　2.【解析】選C。考查介詞短語辨析。句意: 不僅應該以經濟的發展而且應該以人民的幸福來衡量一個政府的成功。in terms of依據, 按照; in favor of支持, 贊成; in place of代替; in honour of為紀念。

　　【變式備選】

　　(2024·鷹潭模擬)　quality, there’s no product of other companies that can compare with ours.

　　A. In need of

　　B. By means of

　　C. In spite of

　　D. In terms of

　　【解析】選D。考查介詞短語辨析。句意: 就質量而言, 其他公司沒有可與我們公司相比的產品。in terms of就……而言; in need of需要; by means of用, 依靠; in spite of盡管。

　　3.【解析】選C。考查主謂一致。quantities of之后無論跟可數名詞還是不可數名詞, 謂語動詞一律用復數形式, 所以排除A、B兩項。從each year可看出用一般現在時, 所以選C項。

　　4.【解析】選C。考查名詞辨析。句意: 每年的溫度會在30℃到40℃之間。range范圍; level水平; diversity多樣性, 差異; property性質, 財產。

　　5.【解析】選D。考查名詞辨析。句意: 消費支出的增長是令人鼓舞的跡象: 經濟可能會復蘇。sign跡象; symptom征兆; solution解決方案; subject主題。

　　6.【解析】選B。考查介詞短語辨析。句意: 我想要薪水高的工作, 但另一方面我也喜歡我目前正在做的工作。on the other hand另一方面; in other words換句話說; for one thing首先, 一則; as a matter of fact事實上。

　　7.【解析】選D。考查分數及主謂一致。句意: 據說五分之三的學生缺席。分數中的分母是序數詞, 分子是基數詞, 當分子大于1時, 分母需要變復數。“分數或百分數+名詞”作主語時, 謂語動詞單復數取決于名詞的單復數。

　　8.【解析】選D。考查倒裝。句意: 片刻間什么也沒有發生, 然后傳來了一齊的喊叫聲。表示方式或方位的副詞here, there, now, then, up, down, in, away, off, out等置于句首, 且主語是名詞時, 應該使用倒裝語序。

　　9.【解析】選C。考查名詞辨析。句意: 這棟房子有很多有趣的特色。其中我最喜歡的是有一個大的維多利亞時代的壁爐。feature特點, 特色; aspect方面; appearance外表; preference偏愛。

　　10.【解析】選D。考查非謂語動詞。句意: 因為位于城市的商業中心, 這家大型購物中心每天都會吸引眾多追求時尚的年輕人。Located in the city’s commercial center在句中為過去分詞短語作原因狀語, 相當于Because it is located in the city’s commercial center。“be located +介詞”表示某物坐落于某處, 要用過去分詞短語作狀語。A、C兩項為主動形式; B項to be located為不定式, 放在句首時表示目的, 與句意不符。故正確選項為D。

　　11.【解析】選D。句意: 逐漸地, 風小了, 人們又開始出現在大街上。little by little逐漸地; a little bit有點; a bit less少一點; not a little很, 十分。

　　12.【解析】選A。考查非謂語動詞。句意: 令我們驚訝的是, 與富人相比, 即使許多人畢生都致力于工作也不能擁有自己的房子。此處compare與句子的主語之間為被動關系, 因此用過去分詞作狀語。

　　【知識拓展】

　　非謂語動詞作狀語形式的判斷

　　1. 在非謂語動詞的考查過程中, 要注意現在分詞、過去分詞作狀語的區別: 當主語和分詞構成邏輯上的主謂關系時, 要考慮用現在分詞作狀語, 而當主語與分詞為被動關系時, 則要用過去分詞作狀語。例如:

　　Comparing Chinese culture and western culture, you can find that though they are quite different from each other, yet you can find something in common.

　　此句用現在分詞作狀語, 表示條件。句意: 如果比較一下中國文化和西方文化, 你會發現盡管它們大不相同, 但你可以發現一些相同之處。

　　2. 動詞不定式在句首充當狀語時, 一般用作目的狀語。例如: To have a better grade, you need to put your heart into what you are studying now. 為了得到更好的分數, 你要把你的全部身心投入到你現在所學習的東西上去。

　　13.【解析】選B。考查名詞辨析。句意: 關于這個項目我的觀點正好和你的相反。也就是說, 我根本不同意你的意見。opposite相反, 對立; similarity相似; option選擇; difference差異, 不同。

　　14.【解析】選D。考查名詞辨析。句意: 盡管紅色是溫暖的象征, 它有時也會使人們不安甚至恐懼。symbol象征; signal信號; mark標志, 痕跡; sign跡象, 征兆。
