John and Mary had a nice home and two lovely children, a boy and a girl. Once John was asked to go on a business trip and Mary needed to go along too. They found a babysitter to care for the 1 and made the trip, returning home a little earlier than they had planned.
As they drove into their home town, they 2 smoke, and they went to see what it was. They found a home on fire. Mary said, “Oh, well, it isn’t our home. Let’s go.”
But John drove 3 and said, “The home belongs to Fred Jones who works at the factory. He wouldn’t be off work yet, maybe there’s something we would do.” “It has something to do with us,” said Mary.
But John drove up, stopped and found the whole house on fire. A woman in the street was crying, “The children! 4 the children!” John grabbed（抓） her by the shoulder saying, “Get a hold of yourself and tell us where the children are!” “In the 5, ”cried the woman, “down the hall and to the left.”
Although Mary didn’t agree, John wet his clothes and 6 for the bathroom which was full of smoke and heat. He found the door and grabbed two children, holding one under each arm. As he left he could hear some other sound like crying. He sent the two badly 7 and nearly suffocated（窒息）children into waiting arms. Then he was told two more children were still in there. Mary grabbed his arm and shouted, “John! Don’t go back! That house will fall down in any second!”
But he shook her off and went back by 8 his way down the smoke-filled hallway and into the room. It seemed a century had passed 9 he found both children and started back. They were coughing and he lowered his body trying to get some 10. As he walked up the endless steps, the thought went through his mind that there was something strangely familiar about the little bodies, and at last when they came out into the sunlight and fresh air, he found that he had just saved his own children.
The babysitter had left them at this home while she did some shopping.

【回答】
1.A 此處考查名詞。由前面的babysitter可知此空應填children。
2.C 此處考查動詞。空後面為smoke，固應選擇noticed注意到；watch意為“看”；recognize意為“認出來，承認”；realize意為“認識到，實現”。
3.D 此處考查副詞。but表示轉折，與“Let’s go”相反，並且下一段第一句為“But John drove up”，所以，選擇closer。其他三個選項皆為相反的意思。
4.B。此處考察動詞辨析。當時John 、Mary及老太太都在房子外，想要救出孩子，需先進入房子，找到孩子，才能帶出，此路線有雙向的含義。
A. Find“找到”，只是強調了進入的結果，並沒有要“帶出”的含義，故不選。
B. Get本身就有雙向的含義，即go and bring, 如Could you get me today’s newspaper? 你能幫我拿今天的報紙嗎？即“過去拿到再帶來”之意。
C. Move“搬”，後面不與人搭配。
D. Hold “拿”，錯因同C。故選B。
5.A 此處考查名詞。此空為被困兒童的位置，由下文36空後面bathroom可知選擇A。
6.C 此處考查動詞。head for 意為“朝...行進”。Look for尋找；care for照料；reach for伸出...以觸及。
7.A 此處考查為形容詞。frightened害怕的，受驚的；surprised驚奇的，驚訝的；sad悲傷的；sick生病的。根據文章情境，孩子應該是被驚嚇到並且幾乎窒息，所以選A。
8.D。此處考察動詞辨析。需要聯繫上下文，盲做必死無疑。上文“Mary grabbed his arm and shouted, “John! Don’t go back! That house will fall down in any second!”交代背景，此時已經非常兇險，John如果再進入，會有生命危險。下文修飾“way”的是“down the smoke-filled hallway and into the room”，此處smoke-filled非常關鍵，意為“濃煙密佈的”，一個*在濃煙中很難睜開眼睛，只能靠摸索前進。最常見的錯誤選A，“follow one’s way”表示“沿着某人的路”，似乎有道理；
B. go one’s way表示直觀的“走出一條路” ，缺乏描述*；
C. push one’s way “闖出一條路”，常用於人多時的競爭場合，故不選；
D. feel one’s way“摸索一條路”，在眼睛看不見的狀況下，用“摸索”更加生動地體現John的搜救過程。故D為最佳選項。
9. B。此處考查介詞辨析。原句為“It seemed a century had passed 39 he found both children and started back.” 這個句子主句“It seemed…”為一般過去時，從句“a century had passed 39 he found both children and started back”為過去完成時，表示“在他找到兩個孩子 似乎過去了一個世紀”，這是對John救人的心理描寫，是救人結束後的有感而發。A. after “在……之後”，B. before “在……之前”，C. when “在……時”, D. until“直到……”。此處強調找孩子的過程非常艱難，故選擇B。
10.C 此處考查名詞。放低身體試着獲得一些空氣。固選air。
