The day was Thankful Thursday. It’s a weekly 1 that my two little girls and I began years ago. Thursday has become our day to go out and make a positive 2 .
My girls shouted “McDonald’s, McDonald’s” as we 3 along a busy Houston road. Suddenly I 4 that almost every crossing I passed through was 5 by a panhandler(乞丐). And then it hit me! All these panhandlers must be hungry, too. Perfect! After we ate, I ordered a(n) 6 15 lunches and we set out to deliver them. We would pull 7 a panhandler, make a contribution, and tell him or her that we hoped things got better. Then we’d say, “Oh, 8 … here’s lunch.”
We handed our final contribution to a small woman and then immediately 9 back in the opposite direction for home. 10 , the light caught us again and we were stopped at the same crossing where this small woman stood. I was 11 and didn’t know quite how to behave.
She made her way to our car, “No one has ever done 12 like this for me before,” she said with 13 . Feeling uneasy, and wanting to move the conversation along, I asked, “So, 14 do you think you’ll eat your lunch?”
She just looked at me with her huge, tired brown eyes and said, “Oh honey, I’m not going to eat this lunch.” I was 15 , but before I could say anything, she continued, “You see, I have a little girl and she just loves McDonald’s, but I don’t have the money. But you know 16 … tonight she is going to have McDonald’s!”
I don’t know if the kids 17 the tears in my eyes. So many times I had questioned whether our acts of kindness were too 18 or insignificant to really effect change. 19 in that moment, I recognized the 20 of Mother Teresa’s words: “We cannot do great things — only small things with great love.”

解讀：作者和他的兩個(gè)女兒每周四都要去做一些善事。這一次他們買了許多份麥當(dāng)勞午餐送給無(wú)家可歸的乞討者。一位婦人的話使作者認(rèn)識(shí)到：只要用愛去關(guān)懷別人，世界上沒有大事小事之分。
[答案及解析]
1.A 考查詞語(yǔ)辨析。tradition意為“傳統(tǒng)”，句意為：這是“我”和“我”的兩個(gè)小女兒幾年前就開始的每周一次的活動(dòng)，這已形成傳統(tǒng)。custom是“風(fēng)俗”;ceremony意為“儀式”;habit指?jìng)€(gè)人“習(xí)慣”，側(cè)重行為上個(gè)人的特點(diǎn)，都可排除。所以tradition為最佳答案。
2.C 考查語(yǔ)境理解。由下文可知，星期四“我們”要出去做一些善事。make a contribution“進(jìn)行捐獻(xiàn)”。此處由第二段中的“make a contribution，and tell him...”也可得出答案。
3.D 考查語(yǔ)境理解。由第四段的第一句可知，“我們”是駕車出行的， 所以選drove。
4.B 考查語(yǔ)句理解。句意為：“我”突然意識(shí)到每個(gè)路口都有乞丐。Realize“意識(shí)到”，后接that從句。
5.B 考查語(yǔ)境理解。此句用be occupied by表示“被……占據(jù)”。其他選項(xiàng)不合題意。
6.A 考查詞語(yǔ)辨析。additional意為“另外的，額外的”。句意為：我們吃完后，又額外訂了15份麥當(dāng)勞午餐。
7.C 考查詞語(yǔ)辨析。alongside是介詞，意為“在……旁邊”，句意為：我們靠近乞丐，給他們午餐。如果選close，后要加to。
8.D 考查行文邏輯?！拔覀儭笨拷蜇?，并祝他們一切會(huì)變得更好。然后，我們就把買的麥當(dāng)勞午餐送給他們。by the way“順便說一聲”符合語(yǔ)境。
9.B 考查詞語(yǔ)辨析。head在句中是動(dòng)詞，表示“朝……(方向)行進(jìn)”。其他選項(xiàng)均不合題意。
10.A 考查語(yǔ)境理解。準(zhǔn)備回家時(shí)遇到紅燈，而且又在剛剛幫助過的矮小的婦人旁邊停下，感覺很尷尬。unfortunately“不巧，遺憾的是”符合作者當(dāng)時(shí)的心情。
11.B 考查語(yǔ)境理解?！拔摇毕氡M快離開，不想聽別人感謝的話語(yǔ)，所以又見到那個(gè)婦人時(shí)，感到很”尷尬”，故用embarrassed表示。
12.c 考查詞語(yǔ)辨析。句意為：以前沒有人對(duì)“我”做過這樣的事情。anything“任何事情”，用在否定句中，符合題意。something“一些事情”，用在肯定句中;everything“一切事情”;nothing“什么也沒有”，均不符合題意。
13.A 考查語(yǔ)境理解。由上下文可知她說這句話的時(shí)候顯得有些“吃驚”。
14.D 考查上下文語(yǔ)境。句子有賓語(yǔ)，可先排除what;從下文“婦人不打算吃這份午餐，而是準(zhǔn)備把它留給自己的女兒”可知，此處作者問的是她打算什么時(shí)候吃這份午餐，故B、C兩項(xiàng)均不合適。
15.B 考查語(yǔ)境理解。婦人說不打算吃這份午餐。“我”聽后感到“迷惑”，所以選confused。
16.C 考查行文邏輯。這是一個(gè)省略句，設(shè)空處完整的形式應(yīng)該是“what will happen”，此題選what。
17.C 考查詞語(yǔ)辨析。句意為：“我”不知道孩子們是否注意到了“我”眼中的淚水。notice“注意到”符合題意。feel“感覺”;realize“意識(shí)到”;recognize“認(rèn)出”，均不合題意。
18.B 考查語(yǔ)境理解?！拔摇苯?jīng)常問自己是否做的善事太小了，對(duì)別人來說沒有什么意義。
19.D 考查行文邏輯。前后兩句話之間是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故用yet“但是，然而”。
20.C 考查詞語(yǔ)辨析?！拔摇遍_始理解特里薩修女的話、里的“真理”了。truth意為“真理，道理”，符合題意。oath“誓言”;promise“諾言”;spirit“精神，心靈”?！ ?
