【回答】

【*與解析】一位酷愛藝術品收藏的老人，醫生蒐集藝術珍品無數，卻沒有一件能比自己為國捐軀的兒子的畫像珍貴。

41． C考查形容詞辨析。由上下文的描述“a passion for art collecting”，“they traveled around the world”可以推測出，他們周遊世界是在蒐集世界上最好的藝術珍品。14 空有fine的原詞復現。

42. D 考查語境化選詞。由該段最後一句話“The young man had died while rushing a fellow soldier to a doctor.”可以看出，這裏表達的意思是：有一年，隨着冬天的來臨，戰爭吞沒了整個國家，小夥子離開家鄉到前線報效國家。所以選war，意思是：戰爭。

43. C 考查動詞辨析。這裏指的是年輕人蔘*保衞國家，所以選serve。Serve the country意為：報效祖國。save  挽救；help幫住；build建設。

44. A 考查形容詞辨析。下一句告訴我們，這位父親在等待更多的關於兒子的消息，擔心再也見不到自己的兒子，由此可以看出，電報上只是説兒子失蹤了，所以選missing，意為：失蹤的。

45. B 考查副詞辨析。收到了兒子在戰場上市總的電報，害怕再也見不到兒子，在等待更多消息的心情應該是不安的，所以選B。calmly  冷靜地；quietly 安靜的； secretly祕密地。

46. A 考查動詞辨析。7 空前有該詞的名詞形式復現。句意見4題。

47. D 考查動詞辨析。 由下一句可以看出，他所擔心的事情真的發生了，也就是説他的兒子真的犧牲了。所以選D，意為：(得到)*實。complete 完成； double 加倍； remove移動開除。

48. C 考查形容詞辨析。兒子去世了，父親感到很孤獨，所以選lonely，意為：孤獨的。A項的干擾*很大，但是該詞意為：不安的，和and前的upset意思是上重複。

49. 考查形容詞。上一句中有選項的名詞形式sadness復現。語境為：聖誕節的上午，敲門聲喚醒了這位(因失去兒子)傷心的老人。

50. B考查語境化選詞。由他自我介紹中的“I was the one he was 12 when he died．”可以看出，這位來客就是老人的兒子犧牲時救的那個人，在結合第二段的“The young man had died while rushing a fellow soldier to a doctor.”可以看出，他也是一位士兵。故選soldier。13空後也有原詞復現。

51. D 考查名詞。能夠捨身相救，四個選項中只有friend符合語境。

52. A 考查動詞。由第二段的最後一句話可知*。rescue挽救。

53. C 考查動詞。由語境以及下文的told可以看出，這兩個人進行了一些談話，所以選talk。

54. B 考查語境化選詞。對應第一段的“a passion for art collecting”，所以懸念love。句意為：戰士告訴老人，他兒子生前告訴大家他非常熱愛藝術品，更不用説他的父親了。

55. A 考查名詞。好的藝術作品都是藝術家創作的，而戰士帶來的禮物是戰士自己畫的，所以他要表達的意思是：我知道你很喜歡藝術珍品，我肅然不是藝術家，但是我畫了一副您兒子的肖像，送給您。所以選artist。

56. B 考查副詞。儘管這幅畫畫的不是多麼好(也就是文章所表達的：世界上絕對不會有人認為這是一位天才畫家的作品)，但是卻細緻的勾畫出了小夥子的面部特徵。所以選never。

57. C 考查固定搭配。in detail，為固定搭配，意為：詳細地。

58. A 考查動詞。收到了別人精心準備的禮物，自然應該感謝，所以選thank。

59. C 考查動詞短語辨析。push aside “把……向旁邊推”。語境為：老人把以前收藏的價值連城的藝術品放到了一邊，而把兒子的畫像掛到了最顯眼的位置。其他各詞都能和push搭配，但不符合語境。

60. C 考查語境化選詞。這裏指的就是老人收到的禮物，也就是戰士送的畫像，所以選gift。
