【导语】本文讲述一个女孩因觉得自己外貌不如别人漂亮而感到自卑,一天,她忘戴漂亮发卡,仍然有很多同学对她微笑。通过这件事,她明白,穿什么或看起来如何并不重要,最重要的是我们对自己的看法,要有自信。
【31题详解】
句意:所以她很不高兴。
often经常;usually通常;hardly几乎不。根据“nobody liked her”可知没有人喜欢她,所以她不开心。故选C。
【32题详解】
句意:她总是一个人待着,不和任何人说话。
anyone任何人;someone某人;no one没有人。根据“didn’t talk to”可知是不和其他人说话,否定句中用anyone。故选A。
【33题详解】
句意: 当她戴上它的时候,她看起来比以前更漂亮了。
beautiful美丽的;less beautiful不那么美丽的;more beautiful更美丽的。根据“her mother gave her a beautiful hair clip”可知戴上发夹之后更漂亮了,根据“than”可知此处用比较级。故选C。
【34题详解】
句意:在上学的路上,她发现大多数同学都向她打招呼,但他们以前从来没有这样做过。
work工作;school学校;class班级。根据“she found that most of her schoolmates said hello to her”可知去上学路上遇到了同学。故选B。
【35题详解】
句意:她对所有美妙的事情都很高兴。
happy开心的;sad伤心的;interested感兴趣的。根据“about all of the wonderful things.”可知对这些好事感到高兴。故选A。
【36题详解】
句意:尽管她所有的同学都想知道她发生了什么事,但她不想告诉他们她的发夹。
so所以;but但是;though虽然。前后两句是让步关系,用though引导让步状语从句。故选C。
【37题详解】
句意:你知道你把发夹忘在家里了吗?
left遗忘;took带走;put放。根据“your hair clip at home ”可知是把发夹遗忘在了家里,left符合。故选A。
【38题详解】
句意:她听到这个消息很惊讶。
