Terry will never forget that day in 1968. Four-year-old Terry Hill and her younger brother Mikey were left alone in the car as their father went into a ___1___. Terry was in the back seat while Mikey was in the front seat. Mikey wasn’t wearing a seat belt. ___2___ moved over to the driver’s seat. As they waited for their father, Mikey was playing with the steering wheel (方向盘). Somehow, he hit the gear shift (换挡器). Because their car ___3___ on a small hill, it started moving back slowly. There were cars coming and going all around at that moment.
Terry tried to open the door. However, it was too ___4___ for a 4-year-old girl. She didn’t know ___5___ to do. Just then, Terry saw her dad ___6___ out of the shop. But running right in front of him was someone else: a young man. He reached the car first, ___7___ the brake (刹车) on and saved Terry and her brother just in time.
For over 50 years, Terry has always remembered how the stranger ___8___ helped them out without thinking twice. “This young guy, he runs to the car, gets the door open, moves my brother over and puts the brake on. Everything ___9___ so fast.” Terry said, “He ___10___ saw what needed to be done and acted immediately. That has made a huge influence on me for my whole life.”
1.1.
A shop
B school
C farm
D bank
解析:选A。后文明确提到 “Terry saw her dad rushing out of the shop”,可知父亲进入的是商店,其他选项学校、农场、银行均无对应依据。
2.2.
A It
B He
C She
D They
解析:选B。前文主语是 “her younger brother Mikey”,此处指代弟弟,应用男性人称代词 He。
3.3.
A was parked
B was found
C was washed
D was bought
解析:选A。车辆溜车的前提是 “停在小山坡上”,was parked 表示 “被停放”,符合语境;was found(被发现)、was washed(被清洗)、was bought(被购买)均与上下文无关。
4.4.
A easy
B small
C heavy
D far
解析:选C。特里是 4 岁女孩,打不开车门的原因应是车门 “太重”,easy(容易的)、small(小的)、far(远的)均不符合逻辑。
5.5.
A why
B where
C when
D what
解析:选D。此处表达 “不知道该做什么”,do 后缺少宾语,用 what 引导宾语从句;why(为什么)、where(哪里)、when(何时)均不能作 do 的宾语。
6.6.
A driving
B rushing
C looking
D waiting
解析:选B。车辆溜车情况紧急,父亲应是 “冲出” 商店,rushing 表示 “冲、奔”,符合紧急语境;driving(驾驶)、looking(看)、waiting(等待)均不符合场景。
7.7.
A saw
B spent
C put
D touched
解析:选C。“put the brake on” 是固定短语,意为 “踩刹车”,其他选项无法与 brake 构成符合语境的搭配。
8.8.
A happily
B slowly
C bravely
D rudely
解析:选C。陌生人毫不犹豫救人,体现 “勇敢地”,bravely 符合语境;happily(开心地)、slowly(缓慢地)、rudely(粗鲁地)均与行为性质不符。
9.9.
A happened
B stopped
C moved
D changed
解析:选A。此处描述救人过程 “发生得太快”,happened 表示 “发生”;stopped(停止)、moved(移动)、changed(改变)均无法体现事件的发生过程。
10.10.
A still
B also
C already
D just
解析:选D。强调陌生人 “只是看到需要做的事就立刻行动”,just 表示 “只是、仅仅”;still(仍然)、also(也)、already(已经)均不符合语气。
