【解析】

試題分析：文章大意：極度干旱的季節(jié)，農(nóng)田里的莊稼幾乎就要干旱而死。在這個(gè)季節(jié)最炎熱的一天，作者的兒子比利不顧炎熱，一次次從家里取來(lái)水去拯救一只因干渴而即將死亡的小鹿。兒子的行為感動(dòng)了作者，似乎也感動(dòng)了老天，天終于下雨了，莊稼也有救了。

1.解析：從前面的the hottest days of the dry season可知，一個(gè)月沒(méi)有下雨了。

2.解析：每天，我和我丈夫忙著澆地。go about 著手做，忙于某事；take over接管；try on試穿；seek out找出。

3.解析：除非我們看到下雨，否則我們就會(huì)失去一切。unless“除非”。

4.解析：從后文中兒子為小鹿送水，和小鹿一起分享水源，可以推測(cè)出用sharing。

5.解析：miracle“奇跡”；lesson“教訓(xùn)”；wildlife“野生動(dòng)物”；virtue“美德”。從后文可知兒子用一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)的水救活了小鹿，并且天也下了雨，故是個(gè)奇跡。

6.解析：從后文的He was walking with effort可知，這里是他向樹(shù)林走去。

7.解析：從后文知，這里他費(fèi)力地走著，盡量身體不動(dòng)。從后文可知，兒子去樹(shù)林時(shí)，手里拿著水，因此走起來(lái)很小心，怕把水弄灑了。still“不動(dòng)的”；silent“沉默的”；secret“秘密的”；sacred“神圣的”。

8.解析：前面說(shuō)他向樹(shù)林走去。這里說(shuō)，幾分鐘后，他消失在樹(shù)林里。

9.解析：前文說(shuō)，兒子消失在樹(shù)林里，又跑了回來(lái)，下文又說(shuō)“我”去做三明治，顯然認(rèn)為兒子的任務(wù)已經(jīng)完成。think“認(rèn)為”；wonder“想知道”；worry“擔(dān)心”。calculate計(jì)算。

10.解析：這里上下文構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，原以為兒子的任務(wù)完成了，沒(méi)想到他又回到了樹(shù)林里。故用however。

11.解析：最后我禁不住要跟著他。finally“最后，終于”。

12.解析：sign“跡象，符號(hào)”；scenery“景色”；sight“視野，視力”；scene“場(chǎng)面，場(chǎng)景”。我忍不住跟蹤他并且目睹了令人驚訝的一幕。

13.解析：scream“尖叫”；rush“奔跑”；burst“爆發(fā)”。我差點(diǎn)尖叫著喊他離開(kāi)。

14.解析：mildly“溫順地”；powerfully“強(qiáng)大有力地”；dangerously“危險(xiǎn)地”；aggressively “有攻擊性的”。這里指一只大鹿距他近得很危險(xiǎn)。

15.解析：前文看出作者的擔(dān)心，這里表示轉(zhuǎn)折，但是當(dāng)Billy跪下時(shí)那只鹿一動(dòng)也沒(méi)動(dòng)。

16.解析：前文提到天氣干旱無(wú)雨，后文也提到給小鹿喝水。這里的意思是“我看見(jiàn)一只小鹿躺在地上，顯然是渴壞了”。

17.解析：從Billy ran back to get more.可知，這里是水喝光了。gone“沒(méi)有了，喝光了”。只有當(dāng)表示“丟失了”這個(gè)意思時(shí)，gone才可以相當(dāng)于lost, missing。

18.解析：作者明白了一切。

19.解析：作者看到了善良的兒子挽救了一個(gè)生命。

20.解析：當(dāng)我感動(dòng)的眼淚落在地上時(shí)，天突然下起了雨，好像上帝感動(dòng)得哭了。那場(chǎng)雨救了我們的農(nóng)場(chǎng)就像一個(gè)小男孩救了另一個(gè)生命。weep哭泣；chant詠唱。

考點(diǎn)：考查故事類(lèi)的完型填空。
