通过老人和富翁关于种无花果树的态度，讲述“前人栽树，后人乘凉”的人生哲理。
1.【正确答案】B
【题目解读】解题思路使用完形四法之“对应原文”。“地上横倒着一棵____树，等待种植。” A. huge 巨大的；B. young 年幼的；C. high 高大的；D. cheap 便宜的。
【解题分析】由第五段“You are planting a very young tree now”（您现在种一棵小树），可知B为正确选项。而A、C、D在全文均未提到，所以为错误选项。
2.【正确答案】A
【题目解读】解题思路使用完形四法之“使用语境”。“‘无花果树？’这个富人非常____，‘为什么？冒昧问一句您高寿啊？’” A. surprised 惊讶的；B. sad 悲伤的；C. tired 疲惫的；D. bored 无聊的。
【解题分析】下文富人问why （为什么）可知，他对老人的做法是不理解的，与之同义转换的词是 surprised （惊讶的），所以A为正确选项。而B. sad、C. tired、D. bored，这三种态度都不会问出“为什么”，所以为错误选项。
3.【正确答案】C
【题目解读】解题思路使用完形四法之“使用语境”。“‘什么！’富翁____了出来。‘您九十了，现在种一棵小树，它可是要花些年头才结果的。想必您不是指望活到那时吧。’” A. sang 唱歌；B. told 告诉；C. shouted 大声说；D. talked 说话。
【解题分析】“What!”中有感叹号，说明这个动作必须能够表现出强烈的情感。只有shout才符合当前语境。
4.【正确答案】D
【题目解读】解题思路使用完形四法之“对应原文”。“现在种一棵小树，它可是要花些年头才结____。A. leaves树叶；B. flowers 花；C. grass 草；D. fruit 果实。
【解题分析】下一句出现“get any fruit from this tree”可知，树上结的是果实，因此D为正确选项。而A、B、C在全文均未提到，所以为错误选项。
5.【正确答案】A
【题目解读】解题思路使用完形四法之“使用语境”。“您九十了，现在种这棵小树，它可是要花些年头才结果的。你定不是指望能____到那时吧。” A. live 活；B. sleep 睡觉；C. travel 旅行；D. ride 骑（马）。
【解题分析】上文第五段第一行提到“You're ninety years old ... it'll take years to give fruit”由此可知，得到果实的关键是“时间”。这几十年间，老者不可能一直“睡觉”“旅行”或“骑马”，因此只能选择A。
6.【正确答案】B
【题目解读】解题思路使用完形四法之“对应原文”。“老人环顾 ____。” A. street 街道；B. garden 花园；C. forest 森林；D. field 田地。
【解题分析】第一段“A rich man was once riding along the road and saw an old man digging in his garden”，可知老人是在花园里种树，置身于花园中，只能是环顾花园。因此B为正确答案。
7.【正确答案】C
【题目解读】解题思路使用完形四法之“使用语境”。“然后微笑道：‘请问先生，您幼时可曾____无花果？’” A. pass传递；B. show 展示；C. eat 吃；D. lose 失去。
【解题分析】根据下文“Our forefathers planted trees for us to ____”可知，此处填写的动作应当是树被种植之后能够做的事情。种了树就有果子吃，因此选择C选项。
8.【正确答案】A
【题目解读】解题思路使用完形四法之“对应原文”。“‘那我又要问了，’老人道，‘谁____了无花果树？’” A. planted 种；B. protected 保护；C. picked 摘；D. pushed 推。
【解题分析】根据下文老人回答 “Our forefathers planted trees for us to ____”可知，前文中，老人是在问富人：谁种（plant）了无花果树。所以A为正确选项。
9.【正确答案】D
【题目解读】解题思路使用完形四法之“使用语境”。“先辈种下此树，吾辈得以 ____。” A. climb 爬；B. catch 抓；C. collect 收集；D. enjoy 享用。
【解题分析】这里需要填写的是先辈种下树后晚辈能够做的事情，强调的是先辈的所为对晚辈的好处，所以应当填写一个正态度的动词。选择D选项“享用”。同时，与前文的eat也是一组同义转化。
10.【正确答案】A
【题目解读】解题思路使用完形四法之“使用语境”。“富翁____片刻说道：‘老人家，您说得对。我们理应为后世做点什么。万分感谢。’” A. quiet 沉默的；B. strange 奇怪的；C. careless粗心的；D. helpful 有帮助的。
【解题分析】根据下一句富人的回答：“You are right, my good man. We should do some things for the people after us. Thank you very much”可知，富人对老人的回答是理解并赞同的。奇怪的、粗心的，两个答案都不能体现出富人已经理解了老人的话，因此B、C为错误选项。通过上下文，富人只是在看到老人种树后，和老人进行了一些对话，从中悟出一个道理。在此过程中，并没有通过一些行动来表现他是乐于助人的，所以D为错误选项。A选项quiet的意思是沉默的，可知富人经过沉默思考并理解了。因此A为正确选项。
A rich man was once riding along the road and saw an old man digging in his garden. On the ground lay a young tree, ready to be planted. The rich man called out to the old man, “What kind of tree are you planting there, my good man?”
“This is a fig （无花果） tree, sir.” He said.
“A fig tree?” the rich man was very surprised, “Why, how old are you, may I ask?”
“I am ninety years old.”
“What!” the rich man shouted, “You're ninety years old. You are planting a very young tree now and it'll take years to give fruit. You certainly don't hope to live long enough to get any fruit from this tree.”
The old man looked around the garden. Then he said with a smile, “Tell me, sir. Did you eat figs when you were a boy?”
“Sure,” the man did not know why he asked this question.
“Then tell me this,” he said, “Who planted the fig trees?”
“I don't know.”
“You see, sir.” went on the old man, “Our forefathers （祖先） planted trees for us to enjoy and I am doing the same for the people after me.”
The rich man was quiet and said, “You are right, my good man. We should do some things for the people after us. Thank you very much.” Then he rode away.
曾有位富翁，沿途骑行。路遇一老人，于园中挖坑。地上横倒着一棵小树，等待栽下。这位富翁向老人喊道：“老人家，您在种什么树？”
“无花果树，先生。”他说。
“无花果树？”富翁煞是诧异，“为何？敢问，您高寿？”
“九十了。”
“什么！”富翁喊了出来。“您九十了，现在种这棵小树，它可是要花些年头才结果的。想必您不是指望活到那时吧。”
老人环顾园子，微笑道：“请问先生，你幼时可曾吃过无花果？”
“当然。”富翁不解老人如此相问。
“那我又要问了，”老人道，“谁栽下了无花果树？”
“不知。”
“先生，请听我道来。”老人继续，“先辈种下此树，吾辈得以享用。我现在正在做同样的事啊。”
富翁沉默片刻说道：“老人家，您说得对。我们理应为后世做点什么。万分感谢。”说完，富翁便离去了。
请给下列中文意思匹配英文单词。
Part A
1. B 2. E 3. A 4. G 5. C
6. D 7. F 8. H
Part B
1. D 2. E 3. C 4. G 5. F
6. B 7. A
1. （1） A （2）②
【线索解析】本题需要填写的是富人说话时的态度。A. surprised 惊讶的；B. sad 悲伤的；C. tired 疲惫的；D. bored 无聊的。根据线索②“为什么？”，可知富人对老人的做法是不理解的，与之同义转换的词是“惊讶的”，故应当是富人对老人的做法感到很惊讶，选择A选项。②为唯一线索。
2. （1） D （2）⑥
【线索解析】本题需要填写的是树的产物。A. leaves 树叶；B. flowers 花；C. grass 草；D. fruit 果实。通过⑥“获得果实”，可知该段落讨论的是树的果实，因此选择D选项，⑥为必选线索。
3. （1） C （2）③或④或③④
【线索解析】本题需要找到Jenny在新环境下进行交流是一种什么状态。A. nice美好的；B. dangerous 危险的；C. difficult困难的；D. easy 容易的。通过①②都不能对四个选项进行区分，通过③“一种语言障碍”，可知在障碍下进行沟通是困难的，选择C选项，③为有效线索。同时，通过④“在和自己国家完全不同的新环境中进行沟通”，同样可以得出C选项为正确答案，是另一种解题途径。
4. （1） D （2）④或①②③④
【线索解析】本题中需要填写作者对目前生活现状的态度。A. take care of 照顾；B. come up with 想出；C. look down on看不起；D. look forward to 期待。通过线索①“生活的低谷”、②“人际关系不好”和③“不喜欢上课”，都能推导出此处的情绪应当是比较负面的，因此排除掉C选项。根据④“无止境的作业、试卷和孤独”，得出作者的生活已经被这些东西填满，没有其他可以期待的，因此正确答案为D，④为必选线索。
