Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home.Every now and then，I walked 13 his house and looked at the trees 14 he planted some twenty five years ago.They were all tall，big and robust since they have deep roots now.

【参考答案与解析】

Passage 1

【文章大意】由于城乡发展不平衡，社会资源不均等，成千上万的农民工背井离乡前往城市务工，由此导致了农村留守儿童这一严重的社会现象。因父母长期在外务工，孩子们在成长的关键阶段缺失关爱，也缺乏监管，很多孩子在心理上、行为上均出现了一些问题。而且他们的生活也面临着安全和生存的挑战，甚至导致了一些悲剧的发生。要解决这一问题，政府、家庭、学校、社区应该联手付诸行动。

1.C。根据下文“Yifan is one of the 61 million leftbehind children under 16 in China”可知，Yifan是一个留守（left-behind）儿童。

2.A。下文“Last year，168.8 million migrant workers left their hometowns”给予了暗示。他父母远离家（home）工作十年了。故此处应选A项。B.field干扰，不符合题意。C项与D项则与此相矛盾，均可排除。.

3.B。他的父母离家（away from home）在外工作十年。然而（while）他则与祖母生活在一起。while 通常可表示转折之意，有一种前后对照的作用。

4.D。在春节期间（during）。A，B，C三项均不符合文意。

5.A。Yifan的父母没有回家，因为他们不得不节省（save）钱。B，C，D三项均有“花费”之意，与题意不符。

6.B。此处意为：根据去年全国妇联发布（released）的一份报告。故选B项。

7.C。考查动词短语辨析。A.made of与 B.made from均为“由……制成”之意，严格意义上讲，正确形式应该是 be made of/from，且与题意不符，故可排除。C.made up意为“组成”，D.made into意为“制成……”。根据题意，留守儿童占据/组成了整个儿童总数的21.88%，故选C项。
