To speak without preparing is to shoot without ___19___ (take) aim. Decide what your aim or objective is; then state it in a complete topic sentence.

To be 12. what 13. so that 14. to convince 15. must 16. delivered 17. however 18. a 19. taking 20. is【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了要想成为一名成功的演说家是不容易的,你的演说里必须包含最常见的四个目的是传递信息、说服、采取行动和娱乐。【11题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:要想成为一名成功的演说家是不容易的。分析句子可知,To be a successful speaker是句子的主语,所以这里是不定式短语做主语。故填To be。【12题详解】考查宾语从句。句意:你必须知道你为什么要演讲,以及你希望通过演讲来实现什么目标。分析句子可知,本句里有is、are speaking、wish三个动词和why一个连词,所以缺少一个连词;再因为wish是个及物动词,需要用what来做宾语。故填what。【13题详解】考查状语从句。句意:你是否像老师或某个领域的专家一样,希望向不熟悉你的学科的人详细阐述你的观点,这样他们才能清楚透彻地理解你的观点。分析句子可知,本句里有wish、can understand两个动词,无连词;所以用so that(因此,以便于)符合语意。故填so that。【14题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:或者,像辩手一样,希望说服评委或观众? wish to do sth.“希望做某事”是固定搭配,用不定式做宾语。故填to convince。【15题详解】考查情态动词。句意:你使用的语言和语气必须适合你的目的、你的听众和场合。分析句子可知,空格后be用的是原形,又结合语境,需要填must(必须)表示强烈的感情。故填must。【16题详解】考查过去分词做定语。句意:向毕业班发表的演讲与向一群朋友发表的演讲在语言、语气和方式上都有很大的不同。分析句子可知,information和deliver之间存在着被动关系,这里是过去分词短语修饰information,需要放在所修饰名词之后。故填delivered。【17题详解】考查让步状语从句。句意:此外,无论演讲者多有有才华,但没有做好充分准备的演讲通常会失败。分析句子可知,句中有两个动词is,没有连词,所以这里需要填连词;又结合语意,需要用however(无论如何,不管怎样)来表示让步。故填however。【18题详解】考查冠词。句意:此外,无论演讲者多有有才华,但没有做好充分准备的演讲通常会是个失败。failure“失败,不及格”是个名词。本身是个抽象名词,所以不可数。但是当抽象名词具体化,表示“失败的人或事情”时,就是可数的;分析句子可知,a talk without enough preparation is usually a failure(没有充足准备的演讲就是一个失败的演讲),failure是以辅音音素开头的词,应使用不定冠词a。故填a。【19题详解】考查动名词。句意:说话不准备,犹如射击不瞄准。分析句子可知,without是个介词,后面要加动名词。故填taking。【20题详解】考查时态及主谓一致。句意:确保你的主题是明确的,不要太宽泛。分析句子可知,your subject是从句中的主语,是单数可数名词,而且整篇文章的时态是一般现在时。故填is。【点睛】however引导让步状语从句的基本结构:however+形容词 +主语+系动词;however+副词+主语+实意动词。翻译为“无论怎样,不管如何”,一般放在主语之前,或者插入句中。比如第9题,however talented the speaker is, 就是“however+形容词 +主语+系动词”这个结构,表示“无论这个演讲者多有天赋”。故填however。II、选词填空The Father of JD PrintingAbout twenty years ago, the surgeons at the Wilford Hull medical center working to separate a pair of conjoined(连体的) twins thought that only one would be able to walk after the operation.

She was nominated(提名)for the best actress Academy Award four times and won twice.Gregory Peck(1916-2003)Gregory Peck was known for his heroic roles. He was nominated for the best actor Academy Award five times and won once for To Kill a Mockingbird. Peck starred in Roman Holiday and was Hepburn’s lifelong good friend. He later became president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and held the position for three years.Audrey Hepburn(1929-1993)Born to a family of a Baroness(男爵夫人)and an English banker, Andrey spoke six languages fluently. She is famous for her elegant style. Audrey Hepburn was a graceful, dark-haired beauty with a youthful, lively look. She was nominated for the best actress Academy Award four times and won once for starring in Roman Holiday.Tom Hanks(1956-)Tom Hanks is now one of the most popular leading actors and busiest producers in Hollywood. He is known for playing characters with warmth, kindness and humor. He was nominated three times and won twice. Some of his more famous films are Forrest Gump, Castaway and Sleepless in Seattle.Jodie Foster(1962-)Jodie Foster’s intelligence showed itself when she taught herself to read at age three. She began her career at this time in commercials. She moved on to TV roles and then to her Oscar nominated performance in Taxi Driver at age fourteen. She went on to be nominated three more times and has won twice.Julia Roberts(1967-)Julia Roberts began her rise to fame after winning a Golden Globe award for her acting in the film Steel Magnolias.

Audrey Hepburn was born into a wealthy family.【答案】40. D 41. C 42. B 43. A【解析】【分析】本文为说明文。文章介绍了在演戏方面取得巨大成功的演员。【40题详解】推断判断题。文章主要介绍了在演戏方面取得巨大成功的几位演员的情况以及他们的代表作品,所以判断出这篇短文来自新闻专栏。故选D。【41题详解】推理判断题。根据Gregory Peck(1916-2003)部分中的“Gregory Peck ... starred in Roman Holiday and was Hepburn’s lifelong good friend.”可知,Gregory Peck主演了《罗马假日》,是Audrey Hepburn一生的好朋友。再结合“Audrey Hepburn(1929-1993)” 部分中的 “She was nominated for the best actress Academy Award four times and won once for starring in Roman Holiday.”Audrey Hepburn四次获得奥斯卡最佳女主角提名,一次因主演《罗马假日》而获奖。由此可推断出Audrey Hepburn在《罗马假日》中与Gregory Peck合作,并获得奥斯卡最佳女主角奖。故选C。【42题详解】细节理解题。根据Ingrid Bergman(1915-1982)部分中的“She was nominated(提名)for the best actress Academy Award four times and won twice.”可知, 她四次获得奥斯卡最佳女演员奖提名,两次获奖。“Tom Hanks(1956-)”部分中的“He was nominated three times and won twice.” 可知,他三次被提名奥斯卡奖,两次获奖。根据“Jodie Foster(1962-)”中的“She went on to be nominated three more times and has won twice.”可知,Jodie Foster她又获得了三次提名,两次获奖。由此可知,Ingrid Bergman, Tom Hanks and Jodie Foster三个人获得奥斯卡奖一样多,B项符合题意,故选B。【43题详解】细节理解题。根据“Audrey Hepburn(1929-1993)”中的“Born to a family of a Baroness(男爵夫人)and an English banker, Andrey spoke six languages fluently.”可知,Audrey Hepburn出生于一个男爵夫人(Baroness)和一位英国银行家的家庭,能流利地说六种语言。可知出生于银行家庭,即出生于富裕家家庭,会说6种语言。故A(Jodie Foster很有天赋,她能说六种外语)是错误的,D项(Audrey Hepburn出生在一个富裕的家庭)是正确的。根据“Julia Roberts(1967-)”中的“... she is now considered by many to be the most highly paid actress in Hollywood. ”可知,Julia Roberts在好莱坞的女演员中收入最高,故B项(Julia Roberts在好莱坞的女演员中收入最高)正确。根据“Ingrid Bergman(1915-1982)”中的“Like many artists, this Swedish actress left wartime Europe for Hollywood.” 这位瑞典女演员离开战时的欧洲来到好莱坞。可知,C项(英格丽德伯格曼在第二次世界大战期间离开了她的祖国)正确。故本题选A。 CWhat to endure before publication?It takes a lot to write a novel. Even those who haven’t tried would say, “Well, duh!” to this. But it’s not much the mind space or the considerable time it takes to write a novel that is as discouraging as how many times any writer must go back to the drawing board for yet another draft. To really ready a novel for publication, a writer must spend time with his or her book. Like any promising relationship, you, the writer, must date your novel, take it out to dinner, meet its parents, and see it through its most trying and desperate times. As a writer, you have to stay up all night with your novel crying and talking and sometimes even pulling your hair out before that perfect moment of inspiration can truly help you cross the finish line.For many published authors I know myself included, a completed novel takes them about 10, that’s right, 10 drafts, and at least a year of real editing. Will you be spending every single second editing your novel? No, of course not. Just as drafts need some real time on the surgery table, they also need rest in the recovery room. You don’t nurse a relationship by spending every waking second with them until you can’t stand the sight of each other, and you can’t produce a novel by breathing down its literary neck. However, a novel should undergo many drafts — and different kinds of drafts — before declaring it ready for an agent or editor to see.Everyone has their own way to write a novel, and not all craft advice (or even craft “rules”)should all be followed by everyone, but when it comes to the many drafts of a novel, there are specific things a writer should focus on during each revision to help create a smooth transition from the initial idea to final products.50. People are discouraged from writing a novel mainly because it requires ______.A. a good publisher B. too much thinkingC. tons of working time D. frequent revisions51. By “breathing down its literary neck” in Paragraph 2, the author most probably means ______.A. writing casually thus failing to take readers’ breath awayB. letting go a single mistake thus annoying the readersC. X-raying the work thus finding each literary mistakeD. sticking too close to the work thus causing anxiety52. Which of the following is most likely to come after the last paragraph?A. The importance of using proper transitional words in writing.B. The writing experience shared by famous successful write.C. Tips on how to make ten drafts to complete a good novel.D. Setbacks writers may suffer if ignoring the craft advice.【答案】50. D 51. D 52. C【解析】这是一篇说明文。写文章需要花很多的时间,一部小说在出版之前,需要进行不断的修改再修改。【50题详解】细节理解题。从第一段中But it’s not much the mind space or the considerable time it takes to write a novel that is as discouraging as how many times any writer must go back to the drawing board for yet another draft.(但是,写一部小说所花费的精力和时间,并不像任何一位作家必须重新开始写另一篇草稿那样令人沮丧)可知,人们不愿写小说,主要是因为小说需要经常修改。D. frequent revisions(经常修改)符合以上说法。故选D项。【51题详解】词义猜测题。从第二段中You don’t nurse a relationship by spending every waking second with them until you can’t stand the sight of each other, and you can’t produce a novel by breathing down its literary neck.可知,你不能把醒着的每一分每一秒都花在他们身上,直到你无法忍受对方的存在,你也不能通过密切关注文学作品来创作一部小说。由此可知,写小说也是一样的,通过死死盯着地方式会让人产生厌烦的情绪。D. sticking too close to the work thus causing anxiety.(太过贴近作品而引起焦虑)符合以上说法。故选D项。【52题详解】推理判断题。最后一段中there are specific things a writer should focus on during each revision to help create a smooth transition from the initial idea to final products.(在每次修改过程中,作者都应该关注一些具体的事情,以帮助创建从最初的想法到最终产品的平稳过渡)可推知,接下来极可能会谈论到一些关乎如何通过打草稿来完成一部好小说的建议。C. Tips on how to make ten drafts to complete a good novel.(如何打十份草稿来完成一部优秀小说的小贴士)符合以上说法。故选C项。IV、阅读六选四Directions: Read fee passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Guilt is one of the most painful emotions that human experience but also one of the most common. Nobody enjoys feeling guilty, but this emotion serves an important purpose: It alerts a person when he or she has done something wrong. This enables the person to make amends and work to heal relationships that were damaged by their actions ____57____Nevertheless, guilt can be destructive if it is not dealt with in the right way, It can cause people to avoid others because they are too embarrassed to apologize for their actions or inactions. Some try to avoid at the pain of duty by turning to other worse habits. ____58____The proper response to guilt depends on what kind of guilt you're dealing with. For false guilty, it's important to recognize that the guilt does not reflect an actual ethical failure.For example, some false guilt focuses on failing to meet expectations you had for yourself. ___59___ No one is perfect, and no one can do everything, so admitting your limits is actually a sign of humility.It is also important to acknowledge what you're feeling. Even when you don't need to feel guilty, these feelings are real and normal, Try to balance them with positive thoughts, but realize that it often takes time for feelings to change.___60___ If so, don't try to conceal it. Apologize and ask for forgiveness. Learn from your mistakes, and try to avoid committing the same acts again. Getting on well with the person you hurt should make you guilty feeling fade.Guilt is painful, but it can serve a good purpose if you use it well.【答案】57. D 58. C 59. E 60. B【解析】这是一篇说明文。内疚是人类经历的最痛苦的情绪之一,也是最常见的情绪之一。但如果你好好利用它,它是有好处的。文章列举了内疚感可以带来的好处。【57题详解】根据上文“This enables the person to make amends and work to heal relationships that were damaged by their actions”可知内疚感使人能够作出弥补,并努力治愈他们的行为所破坏的关系,即本句为叙述内疚带来的优点,故对应选项D中的also,表示“它也可以激励人们避免以后犯类似的错误。”故选D。【58题详解】根据上文“Some try to avoid at the pain of duty by turning to other worse habits.”中some“一些人”可对应到C选项中others“其他人”,表示列举不同的情况,故选C。【59题详解】根据后文“No one is perfect”(没有人是完美的)即每个人都有自己的极限,可对应到E选项中“limits”,故选E。【60题详解】根据后文“Apologize and ask for forgiveness.”道歉并请求原谅,可知你的确做了错事所以才感觉内疚,故可对应到B选项“你可能因为做错了事而感到内疚。”,故选B。V、Translation Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1.据说这个银行昨天遭到了抢劫。(be said)2.一个广告的成功包含许多因素。(involve)3.开发新区时,他们把环保考虑了进去。(take..into account)4.那场突如其来的疾病对全球经济产生了巨大的影响。(have influence on)5.以其捐款人命名的那个图书馆,定期邀请名人作讲座,吸引了许多市民的参与。(name)参考答案:1.

To be 12. what 13. so that 14. to convince 15. must 16. delivered 17. however 18. a 19. taking 20. is【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了要想成为一名成功的演说家是不容易的,你的演说里必须包含最常见的四个目的是传递信息、说服、采取行动和娱乐。【11题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:要想成为一名成功的演说家是不容易的。分析句子可知,To be a successful speaker是句子的主语,所以这里是不定式短语做主语。故填To be。【12题详解】考查宾语从句。句意:你必须知道你为什么要演讲,以及你希望通过演讲来实现什么目标。分析句子可知,本句里有is、are speaking、wish三个动词和why一个连词,所以缺少一个连词;再因为wish是个及物动词,需要用what来做宾语。故填what。【13题详解】考查状语从句。句意:你是否像老师或某个领域的专家一样,希望向不熟悉你的学科的人详细阐述你的观点,这样他们才能清楚透彻地理解你的观点。分析句子可知,本句里有wish、can understand两个动词,无连词;所以用so that(因此,以便于)符合语意。故填so that。【14题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:或者,像辩手一样,希望说服评委或观众? wish to do sth.“希望做某事”是固定搭配,用不定式做宾语。故填to convince。【15题详解】考查情态动词。句意:你使用的语言和语气必须适合你的目的、你的听众和场合。分析句子可知,空格后be用的是原形,又结合语境,需要填must(必须)表示强烈的感情。故填must。【16题详解】考查过去分词做定语。句意:向毕业班发表的演讲与向一群朋友发表的演讲在语言、语气和方式上都有很大的不同。分析句子可知,information和deliver之间存在着被动关系,这里是过去分词短语修饰information,需要放在所修饰名词之后。故填delivered。【17题详解】考查让步状语从句。句意:此外,无论演讲者多有有才华,但没有做好充分准备的演讲通常会失败。分析句子可知,句中有两个动词is,没有连词,所以这里需要填连词;又结合语意,需要用however(无论如何,不管怎样)来表示让步。故填however。【18题详解】考查冠词。句意:此外,无论演讲者多有有才华,但没有做好充分准备的演讲通常会是个失败。failure“失败,不及格”是个名词。本身是个抽象名词,所以不可数。但是当抽象名词具体化,表示“失败的人或事情”时,就是可数的;分析句子可知,a talk without enough preparation is usually a failure(没有充足准备的演讲就是一个失败的演讲),failure是以辅音音素开头的词,应使用不定冠词a。故填a。【19题详解】考查动名词。句意:说话不准备,犹如射击不瞄准。分析句子可知,without是个介词,后面要加动名词。故填taking。【20题详解】考查时态及主谓一致。句意:确保你的主题是明确的,不要太宽泛。分析句子可知,your subject是从句中的主语,是单数可数名词,而且整篇文章的时态是一般现在时。故填is。【点睛】however引导让步状语从句的基本结构:however+形容词 +主语+系动词;however+副词+主语+实意动词。翻译为“无论怎样,不管如何”,一般放在主语之前,或者插入句中。比如第9题,however talented the speaker is, 就是“however+形容词 +主语+系动词”这个结构,表示“无论这个演讲者多有天赋”。故填however。II、选词填空The Father of JD PrintingAbout twenty years ago, the surgeons at the Wilford Hull medical center working to separate a pair of conjoined(连体的) twins thought that only one would be able to walk after the operation.

She was nominated(提名)for the best actress Academy Award four times and won twice.Gregory Peck(1916-2003)Gregory Peck was known for his heroic roles. He was nominated for the best actor Academy Award five times and won once for To Kill a Mockingbird. Peck starred in Roman Holiday and was Hepburn’s lifelong good friend. He later became president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and held the position for three years.Audrey Hepburn(1929-1993)Born to a family of a Baroness(男爵夫人)and an English banker, Andrey spoke six languages fluently. She is famous for her elegant style. Audrey Hepburn was a graceful, dark-haired beauty with a youthful, lively look. She was nominated for the best actress Academy Award four times and won once for starring in Roman Holiday.Tom Hanks(1956-)Tom Hanks is now one of the most popular leading actors and busiest producers in Hollywood. He is known for playing characters with warmth, kindness and humor. He was nominated three times and won twice. Some of his more famous films are Forrest Gump, Castaway and Sleepless in Seattle.Jodie Foster(1962-)Jodie Foster’s intelligence showed itself when she taught herself to read at age three. She began her career at this time in commercials. She moved on to TV roles and then to her Oscar nominated performance in Taxi Driver at age fourteen. She went on to be nominated three more times and has won twice.Julia Roberts(1967-)Julia Roberts began her rise to fame after winning a Golden Globe award for her acting in the film Steel Magnolias.

A【解析】【分析】本文为说明文。文章介绍了在演戏方面取得巨大成功的演员。【40题详解】推断判断题。文章主要介绍了在演戏方面取得巨大成功的几位演员的情况以及他们的代表作品,所以判断出这篇短文来自新闻专栏。故选D。【41题详解】推理判断题。根据Gregory Peck(1916-2003)部分中的“Gregory Peck ... starred in Roman Holiday and was Hepburn’s lifelong good friend.”可知,Gregory Peck主演了《罗马假日》,是Audrey Hepburn一生的好朋友。再结合“Audrey Hepburn(1929-1993)” 部分中的 “She was nominated for the best actress Academy Award four times and won once for starring in Roman Holiday.”Audrey Hepburn四次获得奥斯卡最佳女主角提名,一次因主演《罗马假日》而获奖。由此可推断出Audrey Hepburn在《罗马假日》中与Gregory Peck合作,并获得奥斯卡最佳女主角奖。故选C。【42题详解】细节理解题。根据Ingrid Bergman(1915-1982)部分中的“She was nominated(提名)for the best actress Academy Award four times and won twice.”可知, 她四次获得奥斯卡最佳女演员奖提名,两次获奖。“Tom Hanks(1956-)”部分中的“He was nominated three times and won twice.” 可知,他三次被提名奥斯卡奖,两次获奖。根据“Jodie Foster(1962-)”中的“She went on to be nominated three more times and has won twice.”可知,Jodie Foster她又获得了三次提名,两次获奖。由此可知,Ingrid Bergman, Tom Hanks and Jodie Foster三个人获得奥斯卡奖一样多,B项符合题意,故选B。【43题详解】细节理解题。根据“Audrey Hepburn(1929-1993)”中的“Born to a family of a Baroness(男爵夫人)and an English banker, Andrey spoke six languages fluently.”可知,Audrey Hepburn出生于一个男爵夫人(Baroness)和一位英国银行家的家庭,能流利地说六种语言。可知出生于银行家庭,即出生于富裕家家庭,会说6种语言。故A(Jodie Foster很有天赋,她能说六种外语)是错误的,D项(Audrey Hepburn出生在一个富裕的家庭)是正确的。根据“Julia Roberts(1967-)”中的“... she is now considered by many to be the most highly paid actress in Hollywood. ”可知,Julia Roberts在好莱坞的女演员中收入最高,故B项(Julia Roberts在好莱坞的女演员中收入最高)正确。根据“Ingrid Bergman(1915-1982)”中的“Like many artists, this Swedish actress left wartime Europe for Hollywood.” 这位瑞典女演员离开战时的欧洲来到好莱坞。可知,C项(英格丽德伯格曼在第二次世界大战期间离开了她的祖国)正确。故本题选A。 CWhat to endure before publication?It takes a lot to write a novel. Even those who haven’t tried would say, “Well, duh!” to this. But it’s not much the mind space or the considerable time it takes to write a novel that is as discouraging as how many times any writer must go back to the drawing board for yet another draft. To really ready a novel for publication, a writer must spend time with his or her book. Like any promising relationship, you, the writer, must date your novel, take it out to dinner, meet its parents, and see it through its most trying and desperate times. As a writer, you have to stay up all night with your novel crying and talking and sometimes even pulling your hair out before that perfect moment of inspiration can truly help you cross the finish line.For many published authors I know myself included, a completed novel takes them about 10, that’s right, 10 drafts, and at least a year of real editing. Will you be spending every single second editing your novel? No, of course not. Just as drafts need some real time on the surgery table, they also need rest in the recovery room. You don’t nurse a relationship by spending every waking second with them until you can’t stand the sight of each other, and you can’t produce a novel by breathing down its literary neck. However, a novel should undergo many drafts — and different kinds of drafts — before declaring it ready for an agent or editor to see.Everyone has their own way to write a novel, and not all craft advice (or even craft “rules”)should all be followed by everyone, but when it comes to the many drafts of a novel, there are specific things a writer should focus on during each revision to help create a smooth transition from the initial idea to final products.50. People are discouraged from writing a novel mainly because it requires ______.A. a good publisher B. too much thinkingC. tons of working time D. frequent revisions51. By “breathing down its literary neck” in Paragraph 2, the author most probably means ______.A. writing casually thus failing to take readers’ breath awayB. letting go a single mistake thus annoying the readersC. X-raying the work thus finding each literary mistakeD. sticking too close to the work thus causing anxiety52. Which of the following is most likely to come after the last paragraph?A. The importance of using proper transitional words in writing.B. The writing experience shared by famous successful write.C. Tips on how to make ten drafts to complete a good novel.D. Setbacks writers may suffer if ignoring the craft advice.【答案】50. D 51. D 52. C【解析】这是一篇说明文。写文章需要花很多的时间,一部小说在出版之前,需要进行不断的修改再修改。【50题详解】细节理解题。从第一段中But it’s not much the mind space or the considerable time it takes to write a novel that is as discouraging as how many times any writer must go back to the drawing board for yet another draft.(但是,写一部小说所花费的精力和时间,并不像任何一位作家必须重新开始写另一篇草稿那样令人沮丧)可知,人们不愿写小说,主要是因为小说需要经常修改。D. frequent revisions(经常修改)符合以上说法。故选D项。【51题详解】词义猜测题。从第二段中You don’t nurse a relationship by spending every waking second with them until you can’t stand the sight of each other, and you can’t produce a novel by breathing down its literary neck.可知,你不能把醒着的每一分每一秒都花在他们身上,直到你无法忍受对方的存在,你也不能通过密切关注文学作品来创作一部小说。由此可知,写小说也是一样的,通过死死盯着地方式会让人产生厌烦的情绪。D. sticking too close to the work thus causing anxiety.(太过贴近作品而引起焦虑)符合以上说法。故选D项。【52题详解】推理判断题。最后一段中there are specific things a writer should focus on during each revision to help create a smooth transition from the initial idea to final products.(在每次修改过程中,作者都应该关注一些具体的事情,以帮助创建从最初的想法到最终产品的平稳过渡)可推知,接下来极可能会谈论到一些关乎如何通过打草稿来完成一部好小说的建议。C. Tips on how to make ten drafts to complete a good novel.(如何打十份草稿来完成一部优秀小说的小贴士)符合以上说法。故选C项。IV、阅读六选四Directions: Read fee passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Guilt is one of the most painful emotions that human experience but also one of the most common. Nobody enjoys feeling guilty, but this emotion serves an important purpose: It alerts a person when he or she has done something wrong. This enables the person to make amends and work to heal relationships that were damaged by their actions ____57____Nevertheless, guilt can be destructive if it is not dealt with in the right way, It can cause people to avoid others because they are too embarrassed to apologize for their actions or inactions. Some try to avoid at the pain of duty by turning to other worse habits. ____58____The proper response to guilt depends on what kind of guilt you're dealing with. For false guilty, it's important to recognize that the guilt does not reflect an actual ethical failure.For example, some false guilt focuses on failing to meet expectations you had for yourself. ___59___ No one is perfect, and no one can do everything, so admitting your limits is actually a sign of humility.It is also important to acknowledge what you're feeling. Even when you don't need to feel guilty, these feelings are real and normal, Try to balance them with positive thoughts, but realize that it often takes time for feelings to change.___60___ If so, don't try to conceal it. Apologize and ask for forgiveness. Learn from your mistakes, and try to avoid committing the same acts again. Getting on well with the person you hurt should make you guilty feeling fade.Guilt is painful, but it can serve a good purpose if you use it well.【答案】57. D 58. C 59. E 60. B【解析】这是一篇说明文。内疚是人类经历的最痛苦的情绪之一,也是最常见的情绪之一。但如果你好好利用它,它是有好处的。文章列举了内疚感可以带来的好处。【57题详解】根据上文“This enables the person to make amends and work to heal relationships that were damaged by their actions”可知内疚感使人能够作出弥补,并努力治愈他们的行为所破坏的关系,即本句为叙述内疚带来的优点,故对应选项D中的also,表示“它也可以激励人们避免以后犯类似的错误。”故选D。【58题详解】根据上文“Some try to avoid at the pain of duty by turning to other worse habits.”中some“一些人”可对应到C选项中others“其他人”,表示列举不同的情况,故选C。【59题详解】根据后文“No one is perfect”(没有人是完美的)即每个人都有自己的极限,可对应到E选项中“limits”,故选E。【60题详解】根据后文“Apologize and ask for forgiveness.”道歉并请求原谅,可知你的确做了错事所以才感觉内疚,故可对应到B选项“你可能因为做错了事而感到内疚。”,故选B。V、Translation Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1.据说这个银行昨天遭到了抢劫。(be said)2.一个广告的成功包含许多因素。(involve)3.开发新区时,他们把环保考虑了进去。(take..into account)4.那场突如其来的疾病对全球经济产生了巨大的影响。(have influence on)5.以其捐款人命名的那个图书馆,定期邀请名人作讲座,吸引了许多市民的参与。(name)参考答案:1.
