从上文提到的“sentmeapackage”可知，姐姐给作者邮寄了(mailed)一个包裹，故选C项。37．B 根据下文中的“Christmaswasdrawingnear”可知，礼物应在圣诞节假期之前到来，故用holiday。38．D 根据该空后的“andeveryevening”可知，姐姐每天早晨(morning)都要查一下包裹的跟踪号。39．A 根据句中的“iftherewasanysignofit”可知，姐姐每晚都给作者打电话，了解(findout)是否收到礼物了。takeout“取出”，figureout“弄明白”，pickout“精心挑选”，都不符合语境。40．C 根据下文“Wetalkedaboutourfamily”可知，作者和姐姐之间的谈话(conversation)总是从询问包裹开始。41．C 根据下文“Wetalkedabout...”和“Ofcoursewealsotalkedaboutourjobs.”可知，二十分钟后作者和姐姐仍然在闲谈(chatting)。42．B 根据上文“Wetalkedaboutourfamily”可知她们谈论自己的家人，而选项中只有husbands属于家庭成员，由此可得出答案为B项。43．D 作者和姐姐以前从来没有花那么多时间(time)交流。44．A 到了圣诞节前夕她们不得不接受(accept)这个事实。ignore“忽视”，consider“考虑”，study“研究”，都不符合语境。45．D 时间过去这么久了，还没收到包裹，因此作者认为那包裹根本就是丢了。simply表示“简直，根本”，符合语境。46．B 姐姐和作者家(house)里的每个成员都逐一通电话，所以选B项。47．B 从上下文可知，这里应用missing，指那个丢失了的包裹，所以选B项。48．A 根据句中的“amanwasstandingthere”可知，作者开了门，故用opened。49．D 根据51空后的“Iwantedyoutohavethisintime”可知，那个人确信包裹是作者的，所以用believe，选D项。50．C 作者看到那个人手中的包裹后意识到(realized)自己的包裹被投递到了错误的地址，所以选C项。51．B 从语境可知，这里是转折关系。尽管他刚刚度假回来，但他想将包裹早日归还给主人，所以用but。52．D 那个人不辞辛劳地给作者送包裹，说明他是一个好心肠的人，所以用kind。53．C 这个包裹本来属于作者，因此应该是归还给作者，选return。show“展示”，present“赠予”，offer“提供”，都不符合语境。54．A 作者默默地(silently)感谢上帝。55．D 正因为包裹没有被准时送达，作者才和姐姐有那么多的时间交流，拉近了她们之间的距离，所以用closeness。distance“距离”，guide“指导”，recognition“认知”，都不符合语境。第三节：语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）四、语法填空1.more2.suggested3.conducted4.existing5.the6.tobe7.responsible8.over9.strongly10.how第四节：短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分15分）【知识点】短文改错记叙文【思路点拨】注意固定句型的应用，名词的单数形式，固定搭配及主谓一致。【答案解析】1.It→As正如我们看见的，现在中国越来越多的人拥有手机。这里是非限制性定语从句，用As引导。2.millions→million到2022年底，有2千万的手机用户。数词后面加million3.a→the到2022年，这个数字到了3千万。这里是特指“手机用户的数量”，a→the4.convenience→convenient人们发现手机很方便，使用find+宾语+形容词：convenience→convenient5.to---withgetintouchwithsb,与某人取得联系。6.meeting→meet有不同的功能满足不同的需求。这里是不定式做目的状语7.surf→surfingsuchas后面接动名词：surf→surfing8.去掉anForexample“例如”：去掉an9.our前加to手机的辐射会对我们的健康造成伤害。Doharmto“对…造成伤害”，our前加to10.are→is拥有手机的人的数量还在稳定上升。主语是thenumberof…，谓语是单数：are→is
