山西省专升本英语真题 2013 年 (总分：150.00，做题时间：90 分钟) 一、Ⅰ．Ⅰ．Vocabulary it never entered my mind to say I was sick just because I didn“t want to work. I was only six years old, but I was doing a man“s job. Our family needed every dollar we could make because my father never earned more than $18 a week. Our home was a three-room wood shack with a dirty floor and no toilet. Nothing made me prouder than bringing home money to help my mother, father, two brothers and three sisters. This gave me self-esteem( 自尊心) , one of the most important things a person can have. When I was seven, I got work at a golf course near our house. My job was to stand down the fairway and spot the balls as they landed, so the golfers could find them. Losing a ball meant you were fired, so I never missed one. Some nights I would lie in bed and dreamt of making thousands of dollars by playing golf and being able to buy a bicycle. The more I dreamed, the more I thought. Why not? I made my first golf club out of guava limb (番 石榴树枝) and a piece of pipe. Then I hammered an empty tin can into the shape of a ball. And finally I dug two small holes in the ground and hit the ball back and forth. I practiced with the same devotion and intensity. I learned working in the field —except now I was driving golf balls with club, not oxen with a broomstick.（分数：15.00） (1).The writer“s first job was ______.（分数：3.00） A.to stand down the fairway at a golf course B.to watch over the sugar-cane plantation C.to drive the oxen that ploughed the cane fields√ D.to spot the balls as they landed so the golfers could find them 解析：[考点] 事实细节题 [解析] 从文章第一段第二句“My first job was to drive the oxen that，ploughed the cane fields．” 可知作者的第一份工作就是赶犁甘蔗地的牛，故选 C。 (2).Which of the following words can best describe the writer“s first job?（分数：3.00） A.Difficult.
