Ⅰ.阅读理解

Valerie was very worried about her daddy. For some time she had noticed his hair was going bald. It seemed like every time she looked at him he had less hair than before. One day she asked him boldly, “Daddy, every day you have less hair. Why is that？”Her father smiled and said, “It's the hair thief. And he visits my head during the night when I'm asleep. One by one he pulls out my hairs, as many as he likes. And there's no way to catch him！”

This worried Valerie, but she was determined to help her daddy. That very night she stayed awake as long as she could. As soon as she heard her father's snoring (打鼾), she grabbed a hammer and went straight to her parents' bedroom. She slowly tiptoed in, being careful not to make a sound. She didn't want the hair thief to hear her. When she arrived at her father's side, she began watchfully inspecting his head, determined to catch the hair thief as soon as he appeared. Before long, she saw a shadow on her Daddy's head and, with all of her strength, she swung the hammer down.

Thwack! Her father let out a sudden cry and in a single movement jumped out of bed. The lump (肿块) on his head was already big and still growing. Trembling with shock, he turned the light on, and saw Valerie swinging her hammer in the air.

“I nearl y got him, Daddy! I thought I hit him, but it looks like he escaped！” Meanwhile, all the noise had woken, Valerie's mother woke up. Seeing the lump on her husband's head, she burst out laughing.

“Well, that's what happens when you tell silly stories，” she said, highly amused.

语篇解读：有人说，不看泰姬陵就不算到过印度。的确，在世人眼中，泰姬陵就是印度

的代名词。那么一天中什么时间看泰姬陵更能欣赏它的美呢？

1.which 这是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词是The Taj Mahal，并且引导词在从句中作主语，故用which。

2．technically 分析句子结构可知，空处修饰整个句子，因此用副词。technically 表示“严格来说”。

3．as/because 空后在解释“sunrise is the best time”的原因，故用as或because 引导原因状语从句。

4．rewarding 分析句子结构可知，空处在句中作表语，故用形容词形式rewarding 意为“值得的”。

5．choice 空前有“a nice”，故填名词。

6．after 本句中的“cooler”说明傍晚的温度要低一些，而且sunset是在炽热的下午之后。

7．is surrounded 句子的主语monument与surround是动宾关系，再联系全文的时态可知用一般现在时的被动语态。

8．to capture 这里考查了it takes ...to do ... 句式，因此用不定式。

9．or 此处表示“如果你碰巧在月圆的那天或者在此之前或之后的两天在Agra”。故用or表示“或者”。

10．the 分析句子结构可知，空处表示特指，故用定冠词the。
