30.C試題分析：本文是記敘文，講述了作者在八歲時(shí)第一次聽現(xiàn)場(chǎng)搖滾音樂會(huì)的經(jīng)歷和感受，以及后來也成為那個(gè)BlackWednesday樂隊(duì)的粉絲，也因此喜歡和走入其他的音樂，但是再聽這個(gè)樂隊(duì)的樂曲時(shí)又會(huì)回憶起那個(gè)演唱會(huì)的情境。11.B根據(jù)意思：“我的哥哥和他的朋友們都是這個(gè)樂隊(duì)的______”。根據(jù)下文53空格后面的內(nèi)容說：“我也成為了BW樂隊(duì)的粉絲”所以這個(gè)空格選擇B“粉絲”。12.C空格后的that從句指代“BW樂隊(duì)將要在當(dāng)?shù)貏≡貉莩觥边@件事。所以排除A“猜”D“預(yù)測(cè)”，而樂隊(duì)要來演奏是一件客觀發(fā)生的事情，所以排除“想”因?yàn)椤跋搿钡馁e語一般都是主觀的想法，所以答案是C。13.D根據(jù)他們得知BW要來開演唱會(huì)，，與之相關(guān)的動(dòng)詞是bought，去“買”的一定是“票”，所以答案是D。14.A本句意思為：“他的一個(gè)朋友無法前往，所以我的哥哥把票______我”?？梢耘懦鼳“預(yù)訂”D“找到”。比較容易誤選C“返回”注意return這個(gè)詞指的是“去-回”這個(gè)過程，returnmetheticket的含義是：原先這張票就是我的，哥哥拿走給朋友了，然后又還給我。這顯然是不對(duì)的，所以答案是B“主動(dòng)給予”。15.B我要去看演唱會(huì)的我很“興奮”，所以答案是B。16.A句中動(dòng)詞是found和形容詞是our很重要，該句意思應(yīng)為：“我還記得我們找到我們的______的時(shí)候，劇場(chǎng)里全是興奮的嘈雜的聲音”。要注意形容詞“我們的”，排除“入口”“地點(diǎn)”“空間”，這些都是大家的，所以答案是A“座位”。我們買了票，當(dāng)然要找到我們的座位。17.D語境是：“燈熄滅了，大家都變得______”所以排除“舒服”，“嚴(yán)肅”“緊張”，所以答案是D“安靜”。18.B關(guān)鍵在于makeout的理解，這個(gè)動(dòng)作的賓語是stage，舞臺(tái)，燈全黑了，作者應(yīng)該是“分辨不出”舞臺(tái)是什么樣子的，所以makeout可以理解為分辨出。所以，作者應(yīng)該處于“黑暗中”，答案是B19.C句子的主語是memberbandstage，所以這里的結(jié)構(gòu)應(yīng)為：“樂隊(duì)成員_____舞臺(tái)”，所以答案是C“走上”。20.D哥哥在我耳邊喊了一些什么，但是我不能“聽見”應(yīng)該是最合理的，所以答案是D。21.A在as……as的結(jié)構(gòu)中，表示和……一樣，所以與之相關(guān)的名詞是music和jetengine，表示音樂和噴氣式飛機(jī)的引擎之間的共同點(diǎn)，這種共同點(diǎn)點(diǎn)一定是“響”，所以答案是A。注意引擎是不會(huì)具備“快”特點(diǎn)的。用“快”來形容的應(yīng)該是噴氣式飛機(jī)。22.C該句意思應(yīng)為：“我客觀上有能力______鼓聲和貝斯音符在我的肚子里”。所以排除B“觸摸”D“消化”。比價(jià)容易誤選C“享受”，這個(gè)詞的排除比價(jià)有難度。首先，享受這個(gè)動(dòng)作是主觀上的，而句子末尾的inmystomach顯然是一個(gè)客觀上的部位，我們的肚子是沒有辦法享受音樂的。其次，這一句話緊接在上一句話后面，上一句話的內(nèi)容強(qiáng)調(diào)的是音樂很響，這一句話應(yīng)該還是在進(jìn)一步解釋音樂響到什么樣的程度才比較合理，而“享受”這個(gè)動(dòng)詞強(qiáng)調(diào)的是音樂很美，沒有在強(qiáng)調(diào)很響。23.D該句應(yīng)為：“我想不起他們演奏過的歌曲，我只______我很享受他們的演出”。所以答案是D“記得”。24.Bdidn’twant與之相關(guān)的名詞是it，所以這里的結(jié)構(gòu)應(yīng)為：“我很享受他們的演出，不想讓演出______”。所以答案是B“結(jié)束”。25.A演出結(jié)束，我們離開的地方一定是“劇院”，所以選擇A26.C句意應(yīng)為：“我們好像從睡夢(mèng)中______”所以答案是C“醒來”?！疤用摗薄奥眯小薄矮@益”都和sleep不能構(gòu)成主謂賓結(jié)構(gòu)。27.D句意應(yīng)為：“我的耳邊______最后一首歌曲的節(jié)奏”所以答案是D“回響”。28.Bperformance“演出”這個(gè)詞是全文的主旋律，一群瘋狂粉絲看一場(chǎng)演出，演出之后又多了一個(gè)瘋狂粉絲的故事，performance這個(gè)詞在文中多次出現(xiàn)，此題難度不高。29.D前一句話的含義是“我也成為了一個(gè)BW的粉絲”空格之后說的是“我會(huì)時(shí)不時(shí)聽一聽他們的歌”所以兩句話之間不可能是讓步關(guān)系;“否則”“替換”，所以答案是Dbesides的原義是“除了…還有”，表示遞進(jìn)，進(jìn)一步闡釋我成為BW粉絲后的狀態(tài)。30.C四個(gè)動(dòng)作的賓語是I’mbackatthatfirstshow表示“我回到了第一次演出的時(shí)候”，實(shí)際上我永遠(yuǎn)也無法回到第一次演出的時(shí)候，所以這句話的內(nèi)容是虛假的，所以選擇C“想象”。只有這個(gè)動(dòng)詞后面可以加虛假內(nèi)容。而“決定”“后悔”“總結(jié)”都不合適。三、閱讀理解22.Mywife,daughter,andImovedintoourhomenineyearsagoandwespentalotoftimeandenergyintheyardtogetitlookinglikethewayitdoestoday.Weliveonacorner,higherthanstreetlevel,andtheentiresideoftheyardissurroundedbyaprofessionallybuiltrockwall.Thefrontofthehousethoughisanotherstorybecauseinsteadofawallalongthesidewalk,therocksappeartobejustthrownupontothedirtasifsomeonewereinahurrytofinish．Wedidthebestwecouldwithwhatwehadtoworkwithandcalledthisareaour“rockgarden”.Wheneverwehadleftoverflowersorplants,DeniseorIwouldstickthemoutfront,justtobringsomecolortothearea.Wewoulddoalloftheyardworkonourown,eventhetiringweedpulling．LastsummerIreachedtheendoftherockgardenandfoundatinylittleplantthatIcouldnotimmediatelyidentify．IknewIdidn’tplantitandDeniseclaimedthatshedidn’teither．Wedecidedtoletitcontinuegrowinguntilwecouldfigureoutwhatitwas．WeekspassedandasImademywaybacktothemysteryplant，itappearedtobeasunflowerwithatallskinnystalk(莖，稈)andonlyoneheadonit．Idecidedtobabyitandweedaroundit．AsIpulledrocksfromtheareatogettotheweeds，Inoticedsomethingunusual．ThesunflowerhadnotstartedwhereIsawthestalkbegin．Itactuallyhadbegununderabigrockandgrownunderandaroundittoreachthesun．That'swhenIrealizedthatifatinylittlesunflowerdidn’tletabigrockstandinitswayofdeveloping,wetoohavetheabilitytodothesamething.Onceourenvironmentbeginstoseethatwebelieveinourselveslikethatlittlesunflower，wecanattainthesamenourishmentandgrowthaswell．Standtalllikethesunflowerandbeproudofwhoandwhatyouareandtheenvironmentwillbegintosupportyou．Youwillfindawaytogounderoraroundyourbigobstacleinordertoreachyourdesires．21．Theauthorfounditunusualthat
