題號(hào) 答案 考查內(nèi)容
解題依據(jù) 解題分析
1 D 邏輯推理詞義比較 作者六歲的時(shí)候就和父兄一起干活，到八歲就已經(jīng)開始幫助父親修理舊家具。接下來這句話依然表明作者很早開始的工作經(jīng)歷。by表示不遲于……，到……打止。
2 A 邏輯推理詞義比較 作者每從舊木板中拔(pull)出來一個(gè)釘子父親就給他一美分。pull out拉/拖/拔出；put out放/伸出，生產(chǎn)；pick out摘/剔/挖出/啄/挑出；press out強(qiáng)使分離; 壓出。
3 B 常識(shí)運(yùn)用邏輯推理前后照應(yīng) 上段敘述的作者幫助家里干活，而本段說的at JM's Restaurant所做的才是他頭一個(gè)真正意義的(real)工作，他沒有慣例性的(usual)，主要的(main)和特定的(particular)的工作。
4 C 常識(shí)運(yùn)用邏輯推理 與washing dishes并列的活兒應(yīng)該是清理(clear)收拾桌子。sweep清掃；pack 包裝；empty倒空，騰空。
5 C 前后照應(yīng)語句連貫 作者的主要任務(wù)是打雜兒，但(but)有時(shí)也幫廚。前句main是一個(gè)提示。or或者，表示選擇關(guān)系；so因而，所以，表示因果關(guān)系；even甚至，表示過分程度。
6 A 詞義比較 作者每天放學(xué)后就去(head to)JM's工作到10點(diǎn)。head to朝著……方向去；turn to轉(zhuǎn)向，求助于；change to變成，換上(衣服等)；move to遷/移至。
7 B 邏輯推理前后照應(yīng) 即便是在周六作者都得從2點(diǎn)工作到7點(diǎn)。前段和本段敘述的都是作者工作的感受，與學(xué)習(xí)(study)，玩耍(play)，睡眠(sleep)無關(guān)，只有work與本段主旨有關(guān)。句中的even也起到了提示作用。
8 C 常識(shí)運(yùn)用邏輯推理詞義比較 在那么小的年齡就去搞活是挺困難的，而且還眼睜睜地看著(watch)別的孩子去游泳去玩，而自己卻要工作。注意作者當(dāng)時(shí)的心情的表達(dá)。help sb.(to) do sth幫助某人做；have sb. do sth叫/派/讓某人做；watch sb. do sth注視/監(jiān)視某人做；let sb. do sth讓某人做.
9 D 邏輯推理詞匯用法 作者不是很喜歡工作，但作者喜歡工作能夠讓他擁有的一切。ask/tell/ allow sb. to do sth要求/告訴/允許某人做某事，這種結(jié)構(gòu)中，ask，tell的主語通常為人，allow的主語可為人或物；promise sb. to do sth答應(yīng)某人(自己)會(huì)做某事，其主語也通常為人。
10 D 前后照應(yīng)邏輯推理 因?yàn)樽髡哂泄ぷ?job)能掙到錢，而非其學(xué)習(xí)(study)、年齡(age)、能力(power)情況，故朋友外出總是作者付賬。
11 A 邏輯推理詞義比較 和朋友出去時(shí)總是作者付賬，這就是工作讓作者擁有的。為此作者感到驕傲(proud)，而不僅僅只是友好(friendly)，幸運(yùn)(lucky)和充滿希望(hopeful)。
12 B 邏輯推理固定搭配 有關(guān)作者的勤奮和信譽(yù)的信息在小鎮(zhèn)上到處傳揚(yáng)。get around到處走動(dòng), 傳播出去；run around東奔西跑，奔忙，到處玩耍游逛；flow around四處流動(dòng), 涌流；carry around四處運(yùn)送。
13 A 語句連貫詞義比較 雖然(although)作者才七年級，但當(dāng)?shù)匾患曳b店已同意讓他賒賬。Although表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。while表示時(shí)間或?qū)φ�；if表示條件；since表示原因。
14 C 邏輯推理詞義比較 作者隨即記帳買了一件68美元的運(yùn)動(dòng)衣和一雙22美元的鞋子。sell出售, 賣; borrow借, 借入；charge記帳，在帳冊等上記入…；wear穿，戴，磨損。
15 B 邏輯推理固定搭配 作者每小時(shí)才掙65美分，卻已經(jīng)欠了老板90美元了。強(qiáng)調(diào)掙得少，欠的多。make money掙錢；其它三項(xiàng)與文意不符。
16 D 邏輯推理詞義比較 所以作者漸漸地(gradually)，極大程度地(greatly)，而且是及早地(early)就明白了隨意賒帳的危害。Hardly與文意不符。
17 D 邏輯推理固定搭配 只要一有能力，作者便還清了債務(wù)。pay off償清(債務(wù))，支付(債務(wù))的全部數(shù)額；pay out花費(fèi)，支出；pay away支付(款項(xiàng)) 。pay通常不與over 搭配。
18 B 詞義辨析 工作教作者學(xué)會(huì)了自我控制，擔(dān)付責(zé)任，為作者帶來了某種程度(level)的自我滿足感，這是他的朋友們很少體驗(yàn)到的。level等級，程度，層面。point點(diǎn)，分?jǐn)?shù)；part部分，
