Test 4
【解题导语】 作者的丈夫去世后，儿子的学业表现令她痛心。作者千方百计挽救，最终只是徒劳。作者儿子的一次恶作剧使他自己深刻感受到了作者内心的痛苦，从此以后他开始转变自己，成为了作者的骄傲。
1．【解析】选B。根据上文的“After his father died”可知作者成了“单身”母亲。
2．【解析】选C。作者越努力与他交谈，他越“离开”。此处pull away表示“离开；逃脱”。A项表示“拿走”，B项表示“拿走；除去”；D项表示“渐弱；消失”，都不符合语境。
3．【解析】选D。当作者收到他第三年的成绩单时，上面说他已经逃课95次了，absent表示“缺席的”。此外，第10空前面的“...about Karl’s absences.”也是答案提示。
4．【解析】选A。他不但多次逃课，而且今年有六次成绩没有及格。用fail表示“不及格”。
5．【解析】选B。他多次逃课，而且考试成绩多次不及格，照这样下去，他将无法“毕业”。
6．【解析】选B。作者带他去见学校顾问，“甚至”乞求他，但是都没有效果。此处even用于加强语气。
7．【解析】选C。一天晚上，作者感觉如此无能为力以至于她跪下双膝，恳求上帝的帮助。get down on one’s knees表示“双膝跪下”。
8．【解析】选C。作者对儿子无计可施，把所有的希望都寄托在了上帝身上，这是作者直接对上帝的言语，因此用第二人称。
9．【解析】选B。根据第15空后面的“on the other end of the line”可知作者在工作时接到了一个“电话”。另外，第19空后面的“that call from...”也是答案提示。
10．【解析】选A。他还“没有来得及”说另外一句话，作者就非常苦恼，把埋在心里的有关儿子的感受一股脑地倾诉给了这位陌生人。before“在……之前”。
11．【解析】选B。上文提到作者的儿子在学校的表现非常糟糕，作者千方百计地挽救，却没有任何效果，后来甚至跪下来恳求上帝，由此可推测作者对儿子感到非常“失望”。C项与本句中的sadness意思重复，所以不可选。
12．【解析】选A。作者把长期以来对儿子的失望和伤心“倾诉”给了电话另一端的陌生人。pour out表示“毫无保留地表达感情(或思想等)”。后三项分别表示“涌上心头”“把……排挤在外”“榨出；挤出”，都不符合语境。
13．【解析】选C。作者所做的一切都是出于对儿子的“爱”，只是不知道该做什么。
14．【解析】选C。上一句中提到作者用尽一切办法想让儿子去上学，可是都是徒劳，所以作者难以“控制”，无能为力。
15．【解析】选A。下一段中提到其实是作者的儿子想与作者开玩笑，就以校长的名义给妈妈打电话，想不到妈妈如此疼爱自己而且心中无比痛苦，内心别有一番感受，所以他“沉默”了一段时间。
16．【解析】选A。Karl下一次的成绩单表明他的成绩有了明显的“提高”。progress是不可数名词，故可排除。
17．【解析】选C。结合第2空后面的“When his report card arrived during his third year...”和第四段开头部分的“Karl’s next report card...”可知作者是在儿子第“四”学年的时候参加了家长教师会。
18．【解析】选B。作者注意到他的老师们对他学习进步的“方式”感到非常吃惊。
19．【解析】选D。在回家路上，作者的儿子问作者还“记得”去年校长打的那个电话不。
20．【解析】选D。作者的儿子听完作者在电话中的倾诉后，才突然意识到自己把妈妈伤得有多深，也就是从“那时”起，他知道自己必须让妈妈为自己感到自豪。
