Two years ago,I decided that I would need to love some kind of extra work to _25_ my disability pension (残疾抚恤金)._26_ I needed to sleep in afternoons.I was limited in my _27_I decided that I would consider 28 to singing in restaurants.
My family are all musicians ,so I was _29 when I went into our local music store .I explained that I waned to sing again but using recurded knraoke music I knew that discs were very expensive and I really didn't have a lot of _30 to get started ,And 31 you find only three to four songs out of ten on a disc that you can __32__use.

【文章大意】本文介绍一位残疾人在热心人的帮助下重新开始自己心爱的歌唱事业的情感故事。
小题1:由下文disability pension (残疾抚恤金)可知作者是一个残疾人。选sickness。
小题2:由文章知道作者热爱唱歌,所以选enjoyed。
小题3:由下文可知I live with my mother on a country farm .形成转折,作者残疾了。当然是Unfortunately。
小题4:现在作者和他的母亲住在一个农场了。
小题5:作者残疾了,决定做额外的工作来弥补残疾补偿金的不足。
小题6:考查连词。as引导时间状语从句。当……时候。
小题7:因为作者要睡觉,所以找的工作的机会就少了。
小题8:因为工作机会少,作者原先在饭店唱歌,现在他想返回去唱歌挣钱。
小题9:因为我的家庭都是音乐人,作者本身带有音乐人的那些特指,当作者去当地的音乐商店,就被认出来了是音乐人。
小题10:属于AandB法,这是并列结构,要求前后词性与词义要相似,几乎在每年的高考完形中都会考查这个知识点。本题and之前说东西很贵,之后理应推出没有足够的钱,故选A.money。
小题11:属于反义多一对,即四个选项中有一组反义词,答案多在这组反义词中出现。此题C和D构成反义结构,根据文章信息,故选D.often。
小题12:属于中文代入法,实际上一张光盘里的十首歌也只有三/四首可以用,故选A.actually。
小题13:属于上文提示法,上文中作者有提到过想再次唱歌的这个想法,故选C.idea。
小题14:属于同义辨析法,此考查点多在四级考试完形填空部分中出现,在2008年高考英语浙江卷第26题也曾考查过,当年的难度系数约为0.32。此题中的B.view强调的是眺望风景,C.look强调看的眼神,D.sight强调视力,本文店主深深地看了作者,属于眼神之间的交流,故选C.look。
小题15:属于固定搭配法,店主带领作者穿过拥挤的店铺,从空间穿过,故选D.through。
小题16:属于感情色彩法,此法多用于解决形容词或副词。下文出现treasure,因此可以推出店主对自己的宝物爱不释手,心爱地触摸,故选B.lovingly。
小题17:属于固定搭配法,takeyourpick,美国俚语,随你挑选的意思,故选A.pick。
小题18:属于语法识别法,近几年高考完形填空部分逐步淡化语法点考查,一般只会涉及一道。C.shouldhavecried,本应该做的事情而没有做,放在原文中过于牵强,而本题是作者受到店主的感激,非常感动,本可以哭但没有哭,故选D.couldhavecried。
小题19:属于寻找重复法,31题与32题之前曾出现onlythreetofoursongs...canuse,对应...couldsing,故选B.theones。
小题20:属于主旨概况法,即所选选项要与原文中心相一致。本文详细描述店主对作者的帮助,店主的善举感动作者,故选C.kindness。
