【語篇導(dǎo)讀】這是一篇記敘文。作者作為一名接線員在theCajunNavychannel工作。在一次洪水之后,作者通過接線員的工作尋找一位老人,并成功救下了老人。41.A.trucks B.planesC.boats D.cars答案C解析考查名詞詞義辨析。句意:在那里有成千上萬的無私的志愿者乘船進(jìn)入洪水區(qū)。truck卡車;plane飛機(jī);boat船;car小汽車。根據(jù)空后“floodedareas”可知是進(jìn)入洪水災(zāi)區(qū),所以交通工具是船。故選C項。42.A.found B.changedC.adjusted D.deleted答案A解析考查動詞詞義辨析。句意:所以我了Zello應(yīng)用程序,并且找到了CajunNavy頻道。find找到;change改變;adjust協(xié)調(diào);delete刪除。根據(jù)本句句意,及空后的channel,可知應(yīng)是用應(yīng)用程序發(fā)現(xiàn)了CajunNavy頻道。故選A項。43.A.pictures B.risksC.orders D.calls答案D解析考查名詞詞義辨析。句意:來自受害者中的幾個女士一直從上午11點就打并詢問有沒有人可以在晚上工作。picture圖片;risk風(fēng)險;order命令;call。根據(jù)空后“ontheline”可知,這里是一直在打。故選D項。44.A.read B.workC.write D.travel答案B解析考查動詞詞義辨析。句意:來自受害者中的幾個女士一直從上午11點就打并詢問有沒有人可以在晚上工作。read讀;work工作;write寫;travel旅游。根據(jù)下文中“Igottwominute‘training’anda‘Goodluck!’.ThenIbegantoanswercalls.”和“Itookrequestafterrequest.Around4:30a.m.”可知,作者接受了兩分鐘的培訓(xùn)和一句“好運”就開始接,到了凌晨4:30還在接,說明這幾個女士是詢問是否有人可以在晚上工作,即接。故選B項。45.A.stuck B.shotC.hidden D.locked答案A解析考查動詞詞義辨析。句意:他被困在他家里了,水已經(jīng)到了他的胸前。stick困住;shoot射擊;hide隱藏;lock鎖上。根據(jù)下文“withwateruptohischests”可知水已經(jīng)到了他的胸前,說明他現(xiàn)在是被困在家里了,水太深,沒有辦法出去。所以用固定搭配bestuckin,意為“陷入,困住”。故選A項。46.A.frequently B.againC.slightly D.instead答案D解析考查副詞詞義辨析。句意:他打算去他的閣樓,相反我告訴他要去屋頂,這樣他不會被上漲的水困住。frequently頻繁地;again又一次;slightly稍微地;instead反而,相反。根據(jù)空前“Hewasabouttogotohisattic.Itoldhimtogotohisroof46”由此可知他打算去閣樓,而后面作者告訴他要去屋頂,前后有相反的意思,所以結(jié)合選項,故選D項。

47.A.abroad B.plainlyC.separately D.together答案C解析考查副詞詞義辨析。句意:我接到一個來自Saundra的,她的祖父單獨住。abroad在國外;plainly普通地;separately單獨地;together一起。根據(jù)下文“Shewasworriedbecausewithoutanyonearound”可知,她很擔(dān)心因為沒有人在身邊,所以應(yīng)該是祖父單獨住。故選C項。48.A.breakthrough B.getthroughC.pointout D.burstout答案B解析考查動詞短語辨析。句意:她很擔(dān)心因為沒有人在身邊,他也沒打通911。breakthrough打破;getthrough通過,打通;pointout指出;burstout爆發(fā)。911是急救,所以此處應(yīng)是打通。故選B項。49.A.wandering B.apologizingC.lying D.fighting答案C解析考查動詞詞義辨析。句意:看起來我好像一直在撒謊。wander閑逛;apologize道歉;lie撒謊;fight斗爭。根據(jù)空前“ButlaterIlearnedtheCajunNavyhadnoboatsonthewatertohelp,withthefloodsosevere.”和空后“Sevenhoursafterthecalls,wegotwordthattheCajunNavywasfinally50togoontothewater.”可知,作者后來才知道CajunNavy因為洪水嚴(yán)重沒有船可以去救助,在接到的7個小時以后,救援人員才獲準(zhǔn)下水去救助。所以看起來作者好像一直在撒謊。故選C項。
