Ⅱ　阅读

Arriving in Sydney on his own from India，my husband, Rashid, stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children.

During the first week of his stay, he went out one day to do some shopping. He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport.

He reported the case to the police and then sat there, lost and lonely in a strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organised again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one.

Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husband's name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can that had been left out on the footpath.

My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out，although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half－written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.

That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people. We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.

Ⅲ　语法填空

I was in the ninth year when I began to suffer depression. My parents noticed but felt that since I'd always been   1   good child, this was temporary.

  2   (fortunate), it was not to be so. I didn't have friends. Hardly could I share my problems. Deep worry began to destroy my   3   (confident). Finally I refused to attend classes,   4   (shut) myself in my room for hours.

The examination was approaching, but I simply didn't care. My parents and teachers were   5   (puzzle) at my bad performance. One morning, after a particularly severe lecture from my father, I stood at the school gate,   6   (depress). Then as the other students marched to their classrooms, our headmaster called me. The next forty－five minutes was one   7   the most precious moments in my life. She said she   8   (notice) a big change in me and wondered why. At first she took my hands in   9   (she) and listened patiently as I mentioned my worries. Then she hugged me as I wept. Months of frustration and loneliness disappeared in her motherly hug. No one had tried to understand what the real problem was except the headmaster,   10   helped me out simply by listening and hugging.

1．        　2.        　3.        　4.       

5．        　6.        　7.        　8.       

9．        　10.       

篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者小时候患抑郁症后得到了校长的关爱而走出阴影的故事。

1．a　考查冠词。child是可数名词，且第一次在文章中出现，表泛指，child前的good发音以辅音音素开头，故用不定冠词a修饰，表示“一个”好孩子。

2．Unfortunately　考查词性转换。此处应用副词修饰整个句子，作状语。再根据句意可知，应填Unfortunately。

3．confidence　考查词性转换。my是形容词性物主代词，修饰名词，故用confidence。

4．shutting　考查非谓语动词。shut和句子主语I之间构成逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词作状语。

5．puzzled　考查词性转换。此处应用形容词作表语。修饰的是人，故用－ed结尾的形容词puzzled。句意：父母和老师们都对我糟糕的表现迷惑不解。

6．depressed　考查非谓语动词。由句子的主语I和该空前的逗号可知，应用depress 的过去分词形式depressed在句子中作伴随状语。

7．of　考查介词。此处表示“最珍贵的时刻之一”，故用of。

8．had noticed　考查动词的时态。notice的动作发生在said之前，表示过去的过去，故用过去完成时。

9．hers　考查代词。介词后跟名词、代词或动名词作宾语，且由空格前的“my hands”可知，此处用名词性物主代词hers，表示她的手。

10．who　考查定语从句的引导词。who引导非限制性定语从句，在从句中作主语，修饰先行词the headmaster。
