Question

【題目】 A mother was expecting a nice dinner and maybe some flowers for her birthday, but what she got was a much bigger surprise.

“My heart was beating fast. I was shaking, and I was so nervous.” Alice, Emma’s stepdaughter, said. She gave her step-mother the surprise of a life time.

“①that, it, amazing, so, I, hardly, it, could, read, was（.）” Emma said. She read some of the letter aloud. “Without you, I wouldn’t be the woman I am today.”

“It was five pages about how amazing she is and each page had a picture of her, and then at the end said ‘Will you accept me?’” Alice said. ②The paper behind it was the one where she had to sign it.

Emma has known Alice since she was a little baby. “I never liked the word ‘step’ because some people aren’t only step-parents. Some people are worth being birth parents but in our situation it was just the way it was. They were my own,” she said. ③盡管這個生日禮物可能不是最好的，但是對她來說這是最珍貴的。 “I’m just thankful that she is in my life,” Emma said.

“It’s not just blood that makes you a family. Because she’s been there for me, I regard her as my birth mother.” Alice said. Alice is expecting to get a new birth certificate（證明書）in the next three months.

【解析】

本文是一篇記敘文。講述Alice在繼母生日之際呈上了一份讓她感動至深且視為最為珍貴的禮物——一封長達5頁的信，道出了養(yǎng)育之恩勝于血緣的觸動。

【1】連詞成句題。本題考查“It + be + adj.+ that從句”這一固定結(jié)構(gòu)；從句中主語是I，后跟情態(tài)動詞，謂語動詞為read，由副詞hardly修飾。故答案為It was so amazing that I could hardly read it.

【2】句子翻譯題。The paper behind it was the one where she had to sign it.；The paper behind it 中behind it作后置定語修飾主語The paper，譯為“后面那張紙”，系動詞was“是”。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，句中包含由where引導(dǎo)的定語從句修飾the one，the one where she had to sign it.譯為“她必須在上面簽字的那張。”故答案為它的后面是她必須簽名的那張紙。

【3】句子翻譯題。根據(jù)漢語可知本句是由讓步（轉(zhuǎn)折）關(guān)系的兩個分句構(gòu)成，句子時態(tài)為一般過去時；“最珍貴的”譯為the most valuable。盡管這個生日禮物可能不是最好的，但是對她來說這是最珍貴的。主語the birthday gift這個生日禮物；probably 可能；系表結(jié)構(gòu)was not the best；對她來說這是最珍貴的it was the most valuable to her.可以用Although盡管引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句，或者用but連接成表示轉(zhuǎn)折的并列句，故答案為Although the birthday gift probably was not the best, it was the most valuable to her. / The birthday gift probably was not the best, but it was the most valuable to her.

【4】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段I was shaking, and I was so nervous. 我在發(fā)抖，我太緊張了；“shaking”和“nervous”最能體現(xiàn)愛麗絲送禮物時艾瑪?shù)男那椤９蚀鸢笧?/span>(1)shaking (2)nervous。

【5】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中“ ‘Because she’s been there for me, I regard her as my birth mother.’ Alice said.”故答案為Because Emma has always been there for her.
