【要點綜述】本文是一篇記敘文。作者以第一人稱描繪了熱油燙傷了“我”的頭，讓“我”變成了禿頭，從此“我”一直很自卑。但比“我”受傷更嚴重的斯蒂芬妮的話鼓舞了“我”，讓“我”勇敢面對。“我”之所以變得快樂，因為“我”已經意識到是一個人的人格(個性)塑造了真正的自我。

11．C　考查名詞詞義辨析及語境理解。根據下文描述可知，熱油燙傷了“我”的頭，讓“我”變成了禿頭，留下了傷疤。hat帽子；scarf圍巾，頭巾，披巾；scar疤，傷痕，創傷；cut傷口，一塊，肉片。

12．A　考查副詞在語境中的使用。still仍然；just僅僅，才；never決不，從未；seldom很少，不常。由語境可知選A。

13．D　考查名詞詞義辨析及語境理解。滿滿一碗熱油倒在“我”的頭上，“我”的頭當然會被嚴重燒傷。hunger餓，饑餓；cold感冒，寒冷；defeat失敗；burn燒傷，灼傷。

14．A　考查動詞詞義辨析及語境理解。“我”的頭被嚴重地燒傷，當然會被快速送往醫院，故用rushed。rush沖，闖，奔；lead引導，導致，通向；invite邀請，請求；force強迫，推動，強奪。

15．B　考查動詞詞義辨析及語境理解。learn學習；fight斗爭；return返回；decide決定。由語境可知選B。

16．B　考查形容詞詞義辨析。受傷如此嚴重，能夠存活下來，當然是非常幸運。故選B。

17．C　考查動詞詞義辨析及語境理解。頭被嚴重燒傷，肯定會留下疤痕。故選C。

18．B　考查副詞及語境理解。“我”很在意“我”的傷疤，所以“我”出門時常常用一條圍巾掩蓋起來。故選B。

19．C　考查連詞。如果“我”不用一條圍巾掩蓋起來，有人會叫“我”例如禿子這類可怕的名字。故選C。

20．D　考查副詞及語境理解。雖然“我”的朋友總是安慰“我”，但是他們從來沒有真正了解它帶給“我”的感受。故選D。

21．B　考查動詞詞義辨析及語境理解。然后醫院介紹“我”到兒童燒傷營，在那里像“我”這樣的孩子能得到任何幫助。醫院介紹“我”去的，所以用introduced。

22．A　考查動詞詞義辨析及語境理解。在那里“我”遇見了斯蒂芬妮，她比“我”有更嚴重的燒傷。“遇見”了斯蒂芬妮，所以用met。

23．B　考查形容詞的用法。從來沒有讓任何人把她打垮，所以她的內心是十分強大的，故選strong。

24．D　考查動詞短語辨析及語境理解。別人說你是什么樣子的話，自然是用耳朵來聽。所以選listento。

25．B　考查動詞詞義辨析及語境理解。“你并不需要戴一條圍巾，因為你看起來很好”是鼓勵“我”勇敢摘掉圍巾，所以選encouraged。

26．C　考查介詞詞義辨析及語境理解。不戴圍巾，你依然好看。withoutit不戴圍巾。

27．A　考查形容詞的用法。在“我”的生活中，“我”第一次能夠與“我”有相似經歷的人交流。所以用similar。

28．D　考查動詞詞義辨析及語境理解。在“我”的13歲生日派對時，由于受到她的鼓舞，“我”放棄了“我”的圍巾，秀出“我”的疤痕。所以用inspired。

29．A　考查動詞詞義辨析及語境理解。不必躲在“我”的圍巾里感覺太棒了。用hide很形象地描繪出了以前的沉重，現在的輕松。

30．D　考查形容詞辨析。“我”為“我”現在的樣子感到驕傲，過得更開心，因為“我”已經意識到：你的personality(個性)決定你是誰。proud與muchhappier相對應。故選D。

56．In1948.　考查細節捕捉及計算能力。根據文中“JackieReidwas18whenshestartedworkin1953?whentheNationalHealthService(NHS)wasjustfiveyearsold?andisbelievedtobetheoldestnurseinBritain.”可知，在1953年JackieReid18歲時，她開始工作，當時國民健康服務(NHS)只有5歲。1953－5＝1948。

57.It'shardbutshelovesit.　考查細節理解能力。根據文中“NursingishardifyoudoitcorrectlybutIlovemyjob.WorkingfortheNHShasbeenmylife.”可知護理是很難的，但Jackie熱愛她的工作。

58.Afterherdaughterdevelopeddiabetes.　考查細節理解能力。根據文中“Herspecialistfieldhasbeendiabetesforthepast40years.Sheretrainedafterher12-year-olddaughterMichelledevelopedthedisease.”可知，她的專業領域在過去40年里一直是糖尿病。她12歲的女兒米歇爾得了糖尿病后，她又再次去培訓。

59．Nottomakecutsinnursing.　考查細節理解能力。根據文中“Jackiebelievesnursingshouldbeprotectedfromgovernmentcuts.‘…Theyshouldn'tneedthecutsthatthereareintheNHS…’”可知，Jackie認為政府不應該削減護理方面的投入。

60.Becauseshethinkshermotherworkstoohard.　考查細節理解能力。根據文中“…shedoesn'tthinkIshouldworkasmuchasIdo…”可知她認為母親不應該做這么多工作。

【解析】

61．difficulty?difficult　考查形容詞的用法。根據文意“我發現考試很難”可知需用形容詞作補語。

62．hardly?hard　考查副詞的用法。根據文意，“我”努力去完成它。hard本身就是副詞，意為“努力地”。hardly幾乎不。

63．asking?asked　考查謂語的用法。主語部分是Mary，需要用謂語asked。

64．去掉to　考查不定式符號的省略。使役動詞let后的不定式的to必須省略。

65．think?thinking　考查動名詞的用法。介詞after后應跟動名詞。

66．all?both　考查代詞的用法。只有兩個人，故需用both。

67．same前加the　考查冠詞的用法。same前必須加the。

68．tests?test　考查名詞的單復數。hadachemistrytest，只有一場考試，故用單數。

69．so?or　考查連詞的用法。句意：她警告我們不要再作弊，否則她要告知我們的父母。故用or。

70．does?did　考查時態的用法。整個故事發生在過去，故用過去時。

【思路點撥】慣成就未來。好慣鑄就美好未來。這也是年來中學生常常討論的話題。考生成文時應注意：

結構上：采用三段成文，第一段引出話題，說明學習慣與學習效果之間的關系；第二段介紹一種好的學習慣并提出養成該慣的建議；第三段描述自己在學習慣方面存在的某個問題并給出改進措施。

2．時態：以一般現在時為主。

3．人稱：第一人稱。

4．注意恰當使用一些連詞，使文章自然、流暢。

5．適當使用一些高級句型和詞匯以提高作文檔次。
