I became a gardener when I was twelve. My early

of gardening may not have originated from my love for nature. It was to
__37__
my parents.
At that time, we had a big yard in which a beautiful maple tree stood. But my mother often looked with
__38__
at this work of natural art. Those golden leaves seemed like tons of rubbish to her, “something else to
__39__！” Seeing the neighbors busy with gardening, my father even thought it a waste of time.
At that age, I always did something

to whatever my parents did! If gardening were something they found

I planted some lily(百合花) seeds in the yard. But they failed to

joy, I found the first rose bloom(开花). One by one, the flowers bloomed their heads off.

at me because he found it was
__47__
to move around my garden to the driveway. To my mother's
__48__， I put in her vase my real roses which, in her eyes, were simply weeds
__49__
flowers.
Regardless of their
__50__， I kept on planting my garden and
__51__
to enjoy the pleasure of gardening. Plants make such good companions: they breathe, they bloom, they
__52__
to care and love.
It has been many years since I made my first garden out of my desire to

【要点综述】“我”小时候很叛逆，父母不喜欢花草，我却偏要喜欢，我在当时的年龄表现出来的是一种叛逆，虽然这种喜好让父母很不高兴，但“我”的执着却改变了他们。后来“我”的花展让父母很有面子，因此“我”改变了父母的成见。
36. C 开始喜欢花草不是因为热爱自然，而是当时的“我”很叛逆，由于父母不喜欢种植花木，我这样做只是为了和父母作对，惹他们生气。intention在此表示“初衷”。
37. D 见上题解析。
38. A 由空前的a beautiful maple tree及后面的Those golden leaves seemed like tons of rubbish to her…可以推出母亲在看着这件大自然的工艺作品时，是充满疑虑的。
39. C 母亲认为那些金黄色的叶子是一堆垃圾，所以应该清除。
40. D 该空所在的句子和下一句表示“我”在那个年龄的逆反心理，家长反对的“我”偏要做。
41. C upsetting和opposite形成信息互补。
42. A come up在此表示“发芽，开花”。该句用表示转折的连词but来引出不能发芽开花的结果。
43. B “with＋名词”结构作状语。
44. D 自己的坚持和劳作终于有了结果，用eventually来表示结果来之不易。
45. B 尽管“我”的花园有了满园春色，但根据该题后的my parents showed no interests可知此处表示转折。
46. A 因为花草影响了父亲开车，父亲很生气地冲“我”大喊大叫(shout at)。
47. B 花草满地使父亲开车进出不方便。
48. B 母亲也不喜欢花草，“我”把“我”种的花放在她的花瓶里，她也只是把它们当成了草。sadness表示伤感，与母亲的喜好无关。
49. C rather than此处表示“而不是”， other than意思是“除了……没有”，more than和less than分别表示“多于”，“少于”。
50. A regardless of表示让步，此处意思是“尽管父母不喜欢，我仍然坚持摆弄花草”。
51. C continue在此表示“执着和坚持”。
52. C 花草有情，对“我的爱心”有反应和回报。
53. D “我的坚持”对父母是挑战。
54. A 我的成就让父母感到自豪。
55. D 过去是因为叛逆和父母作对而爱花草，而现在却是真爱自然及花草。

【要点综述】本文为记叙文，叙述了在一场雷雨引发房屋火灾之后，Sibson如何自救，以及他的邻居Huggons帮他脱离险境的惊心动魄的故事。
21. A 此句句意为：在Sibson还不知道发生什么事情的时候，便被一声雷震醒。此处before表示“还来不及……就……”。
22. D “暴风雨直袭他的两层木屋”，暴风雨应该是从房屋上方袭来，故用over。
23. C 根据后文“他打开通向地下室的门”可以判断Sibson冲下楼梯的目的是“查看一下”到底发生了什么事情。
24. D 他打开地下室的门，火焰从里面喷发出来。此处explode out意为break out(突然爆发)。
25. A 根据此句中“因为这个房间有一个通向屋外的独立的楼梯”可知，他当时感觉应该是“安全的”。
26. B 当他正想通过那个楼梯出去的时候，却被一堵火墙阻拦(stop)，故用B。
27. B 根据前面“three kilometers”及后文“so well hidden by trees”可知他的房子应该是离开主干道有三公里。故用介词off。
28. C 由于离开主干道三公里且被树所遮蔽，因此呼救是没有结果的(fruitless)，故选C。
29. A 突然他听到了像烟雾警报器之类的声音。strike one’s ears“传进某人的耳朵；突然听到”。
30. D 根据后文Huggons拨打911可知，他是带上了他的电话。故选D。
31. A Huggons应该是朝着他所听到的声音方向而去。故选A。
32. B 警察应该是警告Huggons不要进入Sibson的房子。故选enter。
33. C Huggons说他无论如何都不能听Sibson在拼命呼喊，死在火中。应使用scream。
34. A Huggons进入房子，但由于烟雾很大，他很快不得不跑回来“喘口气”。此处catch one’s breath意为“喘口气”，故答案选A。35. D 在又一次打算进入房子的尝试之后，Huggons最后还是放弃了，绕着圈子回来了。此处应使用attempt(尝试)。
36. B 由于烟雾很大，Huggons应该是绕圈子从房子里面出来的，故选B。
37. C 当风将烟雾吹得足够的分散，以至他能够看到Sibson。此处part表示“将……分开”，因此不能用open，因此答案选C。
38. D 他用手电筒往丛林中照。此处shine the flashlight为固定说法，意为“用手电筒照”。故选D。
39. C Huggons将梯子搭在房子上，将Sibson从二楼拽下来。此时二楼房子就要倒了，为了形容动作之快，故用pull。
40. D 根据后文Sibson自己所说的话“我当天晚上是一个人。然后我听到了我生命中最美丽的声音，是Huggons的。”可知，他对Huggons心存感激。故选D。
