Strength and growth come whenever unpredictable and even when one is in despair. For me personally, I can write for days about many different situations where adversity(逆境)    1    my life. Now let me tell you one experience where I almost let difficulty   2     .
We had a glass studio, which was located 50 feet from our home. A couple of years ago we experienced an/a    3    winter: we had a lot of snow and ice and owing to the    4    of the ice and snow, the roof on our studio    5    , taking with it one of our sources of income.    6    it did fall down, we got on the roof and tried to    7   the snow and ice, but when you have 5 feet of ice and temperatures of minus 20 Celsius, it was pretty    8    to do.
We had a partner come in to help us try to    9   the roof by supporting it. In the end, there was   10    that could be done. The roof came down. We had moved a lot of our goods and tools from the studio    11   we still lost a lot: glass, kilns, workbenches, to name only a few of the items. It was a/an    12    experience.
Here we were in the middle of winter with our studio destroyed. The situation was really    13    our preparations.We could have done one of two things: we could simply    14   our glass business. Let me tell you this was certainly the thought that    15    our minds first. Or we could find a way to get our studio back up and running.
We picked the   16    option. We had a large barn that we were not using. So we redecorated and refurnished the barn,    17    our working area and today we have a nicer studio than we   18    had. If the adversity we were   19   had not happened, we probably would   20   be working in the old studio — a studio that was less efficient.

    My most rewarding experience throughout the past two years was volunteering at the swimming competition for Special Olympics where a disabled friend of my community took part. This had special    1    for me because experiencing it helped improve my leadership skills, develop my character, and support my community.

I had to make sure that the swimmers were     5     and ready to perform. This kept me on my feet at all times and     6     of each event’s time and location. I learned each swimmer’s name,     7     many of them swam in more than one event.
    Secondly, my     8     was greatly influenced. When I saw the swimmers get their awards for winning each swimming event, I was deeply moved. I was     9     that most swimmers could swim better than I. Their     10     attitudes astonished me, whether they won or lost. This also enlarged my view, offering me the opportunity to     11     people I would normally not run into. I went out of my     12     zone and did whatever was needed to be done, even if it was sometimes difficult to me. It was especially     13     when I saw the glowing faces of the competitors.
    Lastly, I was of     14     to my community by lending a hand to this organization. To be a part of it gave me a chance to improve my community and become     15     with the people living in this area.

I hope to be a(n)     20     again at this event in years to come.

6、I used to hate being called upon in class mainly because I didn’t like attention drawn to myself. And     1     otherwise assigned(指定) a seat by the teacher, I always     2     to sit at the back of the classroom.
    All this     3     after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy      4     because I didn’t have a good sense of balance, nor did I have the     5     to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me. But for the teacher who kept insisting on my “     6     for it”, I wouldn’t have decided to give a try.
    Getting up the courage to go to the tryouts was only the     7     of it! When I first started     8     the practice sessions, I didn’t even know the rules of the game, much     9     what I was doing. Sometimes I’d get     10     and take a shot at the wrong direction—which made me feel really stupid.     11     , I wasn’t the only one “new” at the game, so I decided to     12     on learning the game, do my best at each practice session, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn’t     13     “just yet”.
    I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the     14     and the “moves”. Being part of a team was fun and motivating. Very soon the competitive     15     in me was winning over my lack of confidence. With time, I learned how to play and made friends in the     16    —— friends who respected my efforts to work hard and be a team player. I never had so much fun!
    With my     17     self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. I have gone from “    18    ” in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself,     19     raising my hand— even when I sometimes wasn’t and not 100 percent     20     I had the right answer. Now I have more self-confidence in myself.

答案：1.B; 2.A; 3.D; 4.B; 5.C; 6.B; 7.D; 8.C; 9.B; 10.C; 11.D; 12.C; 13.A; 14.B; 15.B; 16.A; 17.A; 18.C; 19.D; 20.C
解析：1.作者去付余款,所以把收据“交给”收银员。
2.交完余款就可以把要买的“货物”带回家了。
3.收银员在电脑上忙活着(查找作者的订货),“似乎”哪里出了问题。kept messing with the computer说明事情并不顺利。
4.作者“预感到”收银员会告知他东西放错了地方或是类似的理由。
5.忙活了十分钟后,收银员终于开口了。由上文可知,作者已有预感,所以不能选A或D。
6.收银员是在电脑“系统”上查找,但是没找到。
7.收银员解释,作者本来应该“接到”电话,告知他货款已被支付了。
8.Santa本意指圣诞老人,这里指献爱心的人。由第三段中completely unknown得知,这是一个不愿透露姓名的“神秘”人物。
9.作者非常吃惊,觉得这种事情只会出现在“新闻故事”中,不可能发生在他身上。
10.作者感到难以置信:这样的好事怎么会“选中”他的家庭呢?
11.作者问收银员,有没有“办法”让他可以为那位好心人做点什么,来回报他的善举。
12.解释同上。in return for:作为对……的回报。
13.但是收银员说那位人士想完全保密。
14.作者深受“感动”。
15.然而,想到也许有某个家庭因为付不起钱取订货而不能过一个美好的圣诞节,作者感到有些“愧疚”。作者的意思是这种幸运的事情也应该降临到那些家庭身上。
16.解释同上。afford to do sth:有能力做某事。
17.作者决定把爱心传递下去。pay it forward:让爱传下去。
18.于是作者用本来支付余款的钱买了一些玩具。下文a huge toy donation box有提示。
19.在出商店的时候,作者把玩具“放进”捐赠箱。drop sth off:顺便把某物送到某处。
20.作者接受了他人的善举,也想让这份“善举”继续下去。

6答案及解析：
答案：1.C; 2.D; 3.B; 4.A; 5.C; 6.A; 7.B; 8.C; 9.A; 10.D; 11.B; 12.A; 13.D; 14.C; 15.B; 16.A; 17.B; 18.D; 19.D; 20.C
解析：1. 选C。考查逻辑关系。and提示前后句间是并列关系,前一句说我不喜欢被别人关注,那么除非(unless)我被老师指定在某个座位,否则我一定总是坐在教室的后面。
2. 选D。坐在教室的后面是自我选择的, choose to do sth. 选择干某事;hope to do sth. 希望干某事;agree to do sth. 同意干某事;mean to do sth. 打算干某事。
3. 选B。该句是中心句,this指代“我不喜欢被注意”这一不好的事情,下文围绕着“我在参加了运动队后我之前的状况改变了。”后面的句子娓娓道来。
4. 选A。老师建议我参加篮球队这显然是“一个主意;一个想法”,而我认为这很疯狂。idea主意,想法;plan计划;belief信念,信仰;saying谚语。
5. 选C。打篮球团队中与其他人保持同步这是我的一种“能力”的体现,然而此时我没这能力。ability能力;right权利;chance机会;patience耐心。
6选A。it指代我参加篮球队这件事情,那么对这件事情老师坚持的就是让我去尝试。go for sth. 努力争取某事物,努力去实现某事物;look for 寻找;cheer for 为……欢呼;apply for申请。
7. 选B。鼓起勇气去参加选拔赛仅仅是成功的“一半”,注意句末“!”及下文中的“重重困难”,体现了感叹。point“一点”;rest“剩下”;basis“基础”。我们不是也常说“良好的开端是成功的一半”吗?
8. 选C。根据动作的先后顺序,我先是鼓起勇气参加了选拔赛,而后文又说我不懂规则,那么我此时正在训练课中。attend the practice sessions参加训练课;enjoy享受;prepare准备;watch观看。
9. 选A。对于“我正在做的事情”,我知之甚少,不知所措。这与前文交代了我的平衡能力差、跟不上大家的步伐,甚至不知道规则在意思上是相辅相成的。
10. 选D。能把球投进自己的篮筐,显然我这时是混乱了,选择D。confused “混乱的”,指遇到某事大脑一片空白,不知道该如何处理的状态。11选B。后一句“我不是唯一的新人”,那么这与上面我的糟糕表现形成对比或转折。由此可知逻辑意思应是 “幸运地”即fortunately。interestingly “有意思地” ;obviously 明显地;hopefully“有希望地”。
12. 选A。注意与后边两个“do my best,not to be hard”是decided to 的并列宾语。focus on sth. 专注干某事,用心干某事。
13. 选D。不对自己恰在此时还不了解的东西过多苛责。just yet表示“恰好现在”。照应了上文“...I didn’t even know the rules of the game,…”。
14. 选C。注意上下文线索。上文叙述我连规则都不知道,于是发奋练球的直接结果就是知道了规则和打球动作。
15. 选B。不久我体内的竞争部分正战胜我的不自信(部分)。role 角色;part部分;mind思想;value价值。
16. 选A。注意破折号的作用是解释说明,那么尊重我的努力的朋友一定是看到我的成长的朋友,即是我在这个过程中认识的朋友。process过程;operation操作;movement运动;situation情形,情况。
17. 选B。根据前文叙述,我是一个由没自信到拥有自信的人,那么我的自信是不断增加的,选择B。improved提高了的,增加了的。express 表达;preserve保存;recognize认出,承认。
18. 选D。我在教室的后面坐着是在“隐藏”自己,照应了开头“I didn’t like attention drawn to myself.”以及对比后半句“raising my hand”。
19选D。注意把握该长难句,其主干是I have gone from “hiding”...to raising...,举例说明了我从不自信到拥有自信的过程。考查了介词的搭配
20. 选C。我甚至有时在不是百分百确定答案的时候也举手。be sure (that) clause对某事有把握。

7答案及解析：
答案：1.D; 2.B; 3.C; 4.A; 5.C; 6.B; 7.A; 8.B; 9.D; 10.D; 11.C; 12.A; 13.D; 14.C; 15.D; 16.B; 17.B; 18.C; 19.A; 20.A
解析：1.根据第一句“Wildlife has been greatly threatened in the modern age”和最后一句提到的“…the species from going out of existence”可以推知,野生动物正在遭受巨大威胁,每天都有一些物种灭绝,即:“消失”。D选项正确。
2.前文提到每天都有物种消失,那么该句应指科学家们正在竭尽全力保护这些物种,使它们免于灭绝。故B选项正确。
3.上文最后一句提到科学家们竭尽全力保护濒临灭绝的物种,由此推知,该处应指Chris和Tim帮助濒危物种繁殖,增加它们的数量,这样它们才不至于灭绝。故该空应指“繁殖”,C选项正确。
4.自从2004年,Emma一直由Chris和Tim照顾。该空和下一句中的“human caretaker”呼应。故选A。
5.根据空后的“human caretakers”可知,caretaker当然是照看Emma的。故该句应指:出生在一个国际鹤基地,Emma由人类抚养照看。故选C。
6.根据空后的though(尽管)可知,though前后的两个句子之间是转折关系。后面提到,她过得很开心。根据转折关系,那么前文应该表示“但是这导致了出乎意料的结果”。B选项正确。
7.根据下文中的“become deeply attached to humans…even …killing some of them”等内容可知,因为Emma一直由人类照看,所以它没有将自己看作是一只鹤,而是深深的依恋上了人类。故选A。
8.根据上文,Emma不把自己当作鹤,所以它“拒绝”和雄鹤生活在一起。B选项正确。
9.根据even(甚至)这个递进关系可知,Emma不仅拒绝和雄鹤生活在一起,而且因为弄死了几只雄鹤而“臭名昭著”。故D选项正确。
10.Emma拒绝和雄鹤生活,这当然使得她“不可能”生育小鹤,成为妈妈。D选项正确。
11.上文提到Emma拒绝和雄鹤生活,使得她不可能生育小鹤。下文提到两位动物园管理员不想看到这一物种的灭绝。由此推知,上下文之间是转折关系。C选项正确。
12.经过努力,Chris和Tim成功的将“人工繁殖”和“自然繁殖”结合在一起。A选项正确。
13.Chris和Tim成功的将“人工繁殖”和“自然繁殖”结合在一起,这使得Emma诞育了五只幼鹤。enable sb. to do sth.意为“使……能够做某事”,D选项正确。
14.根据后文 more efforts must be made可以推知,尽管两个人为自己的成就感到骄傲,但是他们还需要付出更多努力,因为野生鹤的数量在减少。所以他们还不能完全放心(白鹤不会灭绝)。故选C。assured意为“确定的,有把握的,自信的”。
15.根据because可知,前后句之间是因果关系,根据more efforts must be made可以推知,野生白鹤数量在减少,所以,还要付出更多的努力(来挽救白鹤灭绝)。故D选项正确。
16.前文提到:野生白鹤数量正在减少,很多其他物种似乎也在逐渐灭绝。该句提到,并不是所有的人都意识到野生动物有思想,感情,以及平等生存的权利。很明显,该句是对前文出现野生动物濒临灭绝原因的一种解释。故B选项正确。after all:毕竟(用于解释和说明理由)。
17.针对上文提到的很多物种灭绝这种现象,作者提出一个问题:我们如何来消除将人类和动物隔开的不断扩大的鸿沟呢?B选项正确。
18.前文提出一个问题:我们如何来消除将人类和动物隔开的不断扩大的鸿沟呢?Chris和Tim的做法给我们提供了一个答案。C选项正确。
19.根据下文中的“hold all the solutions”可以推断出,人类认为自己的“大脑”掌握着所有的解决办法。即:人类认为自己的大脑可以想出所有的解决办法。A选项正确。
20.根据转折词but可以推知,人类想当然的认为自己的“大脑”掌握着所有的解决办法。但或许他们可以用“心”更好地“引领”他们去保护这些濒危的动物。故A选项正确。

解析：这是一篇夹叙夹议文。每年有4万登山者攀登非洲第一高峰乞力马扎罗山，他们带来了垃圾，破坏了这里的环境。再加上冰川的消失，改变着它的地貌。对此作者对这个地方很是怀疑，想一探究竟。当他来到这里，他发现当地环保措施很到位，同时作者发现乞力马扎罗山有多种生态系统。作者认为乞力马扎罗山不应该被誉为一座挤满了破坏宁静氛围的游客的拥挤的山峰。
