【導(dǎo)師點(diǎn)評】
這篇完型填空講述了身為邊防檢查員的彼得明知一個工廠工人在走私貨物卻無法抓住對方的把柄。在退休的前一天，彼得懇請其說出真相，結(jié)果令彼得恍然大悟。
【答案簡析】
1.D。根據(jù)下文這個工人越過邊界后，走下山坡，所以到達(dá)邊界之前應(yīng)在朝山上走。故選up。
2.C。這名工人是在推著一輛裝有稻草的自行車，故選動詞pushing。
3.D。這里表達(dá)的是到達(dá)邊界之意arrive, come為不及物動詞不可直接接 the frontier，故選reached。
4.C。ask與order后接不定式的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)時，動詞前應(yīng)有to, make后接不定式的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)時，動詞前to要省去。根據(jù)下文應(yīng)選make。
5.A。彼得想發(fā)現(xiàn)這個工人在走私什么，所以應(yīng)仔細(xì)地檢查。故選carefully。
6.D。這里根據(jù)文意，應(yīng)選擇表示“是否”之意的whether作賓語從句的引導(dǎo)詞。
7.A。根據(jù)常理，彼得應(yīng)先檢查這個工人的口袋才能讓他捆起稻草走人，故選before。
8.B.根據(jù)文意，彼得心中一直懷著查獲走私物品的希望，故選hoping。
9.B。這里things和hide之間是被動關(guān)系,現(xiàn)在分詞hiding作定語時表示主動，所以應(yīng)用過去分詞hidden作后置定語表被動。
10.D。本句中否定詞never及文意決定了這里應(yīng)選 anything。
11.B。四個選項(xiàng)從語法上講都可以，只能從文意上進(jìn)行區(qū)分，smuggling意為“走私”，是正確選項(xiàng)。
12.C。固定結(jié)構(gòu)be able to do sth. 意為“能夠干某事”。
13.A。習(xí)慣用語look through 意為“徹底檢查”。
14.D�！癮s usual”為固定短語，意為“象平常一樣”。
15.D。tell, order后面應(yīng)直接接人作賓語表示告訴某人和命令某人，而用say應(yīng)為say to sb. 故said為正確選項(xiàng)。
16.C.這里應(yīng)選擇一個介詞構(gòu)成介詞短語在句中做狀語。介詞past 表“經(jīng)過”; across 強(qiáng)調(diào)“從一邊到另一邊”;而into 表示“進(jìn)入到……里面”。 根據(jù)文意across應(yīng)為正確選項(xiàng)。
17.C�！皁n the job”為一常用短語。意為“執(zhí)行公務(wù)”。
18.C。因?yàn)榻裉焓潜说米詈笠惶焐习嗾f明明天他就要退休retire。
19.B。根據(jù)句中否定詞not 及文意應(yīng)選anyone。
20.D。本句說明這個工人回答彼得的問題之前沉默了一會兒。A選項(xiàng)應(yīng)用a moment; C選項(xiàng)表示某一點(diǎn)時間; D選項(xiàng)表示一段時間或一會兒，為正確選項(xiàng)。
