　　本篇完形填空是一篇夾敘夾議的文章，講述了一個家庭生意失敗之后重新開

　　始的故事。文章通過這個故事闡明一個道理：我們在追尋事業成功的時候，

　　可能會失去家庭，因此我們要學會兼顧我們的事業和家庭。

　　[31].考查名詞。從后文Weenteredthepark可知，應該是在公園門口（entrance)，故選B。

　　[32].考查動詞。從前文whenourrestaurantbusinessfailed和hopingtohavea“freshstart”可知，作者是在尋找工作，注意到一個招聘廣告，符合語境，故選noticed。

　　[33].考查名詞。后文提到arent-freeplace，可知campsite是免費的（free)，故選free。

　　[34].考查介詞短語。A項inreturn作為回報；B項inturn反過來，反之；C項縮短；D項及時。根據填空處前文句可知要取得這個工作，需要做公園主持人來作為回報，故選inturn.

　　[35].考查名詞。A.attempt嘗試；B.appeal吸引；C.agreement同意，協議；D.appointment約定，預約。前文知道作者看到招聘廣告，明天預約（makeanappointment)應聘，符合語境，應選appointment。

　　[36].考查形容詞。A.quiet安靜的；B.ideal理想的；C.crowded擁擠的；D.dangerous;根據后文soittookussometimetofindanavailablesite,可知人多很難找住的位置，所以選crowded.

　　[37].考查副詞。文中提到twolargeskunks（臭鼬）,所以馬上躲避。故選immediately。

　　[38].考查動詞。由上文立即躲避臭鼬，可知他們很希望它盡快離開，故選leave。

　　[39].考查形容詞。由前文havingsurvivedthatnight,可知他們對于后面的時間有了自信，故選confident。

　　[40].考查名詞。由前文Imadeanappointmentforthefollowingday和thenextdaywemetwiththepeoplewhoranthepark.可知他們去應聘了，管理人員告訴他們職位的職責，符合語境，故選responsibilities.

　　[41].考查連詞。由前文everythingelsewouldbeallright和后文rockingourlittlecampingtruckviolently...untilthewindsdiedaway可知，前后情況是一種相反的場景，故選轉折連詞however.

　　[42].考查了名詞。由后文Theywerestrongandcold,rockingourlittlecampingtruckviolently...untilthewindsdiedaway,可知是wind(復現)，故選winds.

　　[43].考查動詞。由前文rockingourlittlecampingtruckviolently可知卡車（truck）在搖動(shake），故選shaking.

　　[44].考查介詞。A.after在......之后;B.beyond超越......范圍；C.during在......期間；D.Between在兩者之間，應該是指后續的幾周期間，故選during。

　　[45].考查動詞短語。A.liveon靠...生活;以...為食;B.handout分發；giveaway捐贈，泄露；putaside存儲，留出，擱置

　　[46].考查動詞。根據上文，生意失敗，所以作者的妻子要靠教書來掙錢，故選earned。

　　[47].考查名詞。根據后文Imightlosemyfamilyaswell和buildingasuccessfulbusinessandthenlosingit看出作者留給家的時間很少，復現，故選family。

　　[48].考查動詞。根據文章第一段第一句whenourrestaurantbusinessfailed可知，填failed,復現。

　　[49].考查名詞。由文章第五段ourlittlecampingtruck，可知填truck,tiny是small的同義替換，考查復現。

　　[50].考查形容詞。由前文可知作者找到工作和后文wehadbecomeafamily可知，作者工作、家庭都有收獲，所以作者感激，故選thankful.

　　A.Theenthusiasmfortransportvehicles

　　B.Thedesireforaremarkablemachine

　　C.Theparticularinterestofexperts

　　D.Thegeneralviewofelevator

　　【答案】D

　　【解析】代詞指代題。題干意思為：第一段中的劃線詞“this”指的是什么？可以快速定位到第一段劃線詞所在句：Dr.ChristopherWilkisamemberofasmallgroupofelevatorexpertswhoconsiderthisamisunderstanding.大意為：“該教授認為這是誤解”，而this通常指代上文的事物，因此可以定位到上一句，即文章的首句：Formostcitypeople,…。從該句可以看出大多數都市人認為電梯是unremarkable（平凡的），可知教授認為大多數人的這種認識是有誤的，即答案為D項。

　　A.Uncomfortableconditions

　　B.Littlephysicalspace

　　C.Lackofexcitement

　　D.Verticaldirection

　　【答案】B

　　【解析】細節理解題。根據題干意思，可定位到倒數第二段的最后一句話：Thatmixture,accordingtoBernard,setstheelevatorrideapartfromjustabouteveryothersituationwefindourselvesinaswegoaboutourlives.由此可知，使得elevatorride不同于其它生活經歷的是thatmixture,而thatmixture指的是前一句的themixtureofclosenessanddispleasure,即乘坐電梯時的封閉性和令人不悅的影響，B項littlephysicalspace與文中closeness（封閉性）同義替換，為正確答案。所以答案為B項。
