【解析】

試題分析:本文講述作者受自己父親的影響,不斷努力、不斷嘗試。作者在父親的教育下,在工作中一直努力,并不畏懼嘗試新職位,最終達(dá)到自己的目標(biāo)。這篇短文也旨在告訴我們要相信自己,勇于嘗試。

1.我不能說(shuō)我什么也不喜歡。speak“說(shuō)”、“講”、“演講”。做及物動(dòng)詞時(shí),賓語(yǔ)常是表示語(yǔ)言的詞。talk“講”、“說(shuō)話”、“談話”,與speak的意義相近。一般用做不及物動(dòng)詞,指一般的談話或交談,而不如speak正規(guī)的“演講”、“發(fā)言”,須跟賓語(yǔ)時(shí),與to、with、about等介詞連用。say一般著重講話的內(nèi)容,指有連貫性的說(shuō)話,通常用做及物動(dòng)詞。tell指把一件事情傳達(dá)給別人或講述一件事情、一個(gè)故事等。常用做及物動(dòng)詞。這句后面跟的是“說(shuō)話的內(nèi)容”,因此要用say。故選C。

2.考查動(dòng)詞及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:無(wú)論是什么,直到我嘗試之后。A. tried“嘗試”;B. said“說(shuō)”;C. finished“完成”;D. copied“抄襲”。結(jié)合上文Try it!可知選A。

3.考查動(dòng)詞及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:經(jīng)過(guò)這么多年我意識(shí)到我應(yīng)該感謝他。A. consider“考慮”;B. argue“爭(zhēng)論”;C. include“包括”;D. realize“意識(shí)到”。Come to realize“開(kāi)始意識(shí)到”,故選D。

4.考查形容詞及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:我的第一份工作是我多年來(lái)決定嘗試直到我下定決心要做的職業(yè)。first“第一”;best“最好的”;extra“額外的”。結(jié)合后文I believed I would work for several years, get married, stay at home, and raise a family, 可知答案為A

5.考查副詞及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:事實(shí)上,我相信我可以工作幾年然后結(jié)婚待在家里并供養(yǎng)這個(gè)家庭。A. Actually“實(shí)際上”;B. usually“通!;C. finally“最終”;D. Gradually“漸漸地”。結(jié)合本句句意和詞義,故選A。

6.考查助動(dòng)詞及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:所以我認(rèn)為我所做的工作不會(huì)關(guān)系到很多。本句時(shí)態(tài)是一般過(guò)去時(shí),因此否定形式要借助didn’t,故選C。

7.考查名詞及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:我開(kāi)始掌控一些基本技能,因此我在公司里面有機(jī)會(huì)升職到不同的位置上。A. situations“情景”;B. choices“選擇”;C. directions“方向”;D. positions“位置”。Move up譯為“升職”,因此,和職位有關(guān)的就是positions。故選D。

8.考查動(dòng)詞及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:我抱有這樣的想法接受每一次機(jī)會(huì)。A. received“接收”;B. accepted“接受”;C. hated“討厭”;D. refused“拒絕”。根據(jù)后文作者的想法“ Well, I’ll try it. If I don’t like it , I can always go back to my (24) position(位置). ” 可知答案為B。

9.考查形容詞比較級(jí)及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:好吧,試試吧。如果我不喜歡,我總可以回到我原來(lái)的位置上。A. easier“easy的比較級(jí),更早的”;B. earlier“early的比較級(jí),更早的”;C. higher“high的比較級(jí),更高的”;D. newer“new的比較級(jí),更新的”。根據(jù)上文提到作者每次升職都接受,因此不喜歡就是回到原來(lái)的位置上。故選B。

10.考查動(dòng)詞及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:并且我喜歡每一個(gè)我更換的職業(yè)。A. allowed“允許”;B. enjoyed“享受,喜歡”;C. counted“數(shù),計(jì)算”;D. organized“組織”。根據(jù)上文But I was with the same company for the past 28 years. 提示,可知作者在同一個(gè)公司28年,說(shuō)明他喜歡自己的職業(yè)。故選B

11.考查動(dòng)詞及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:我已發(fā)現(xiàn)因我從不害怕嘗試而擁有大量的不同的天賦和技能。A. own“擁有”;B. show“展示”;C. gather“聚集”;D. need“需要”。這些天賦和技能是自己擁有的,故選A。

12.考查短語(yǔ)及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:我已發(fā)現(xiàn)因我從不害怕嘗試而擁有大量的不同的天賦和技能。bee lucky for“幸運(yùn)的”;be slow at“不善于”;be afraid of“害怕……”;be open to“對(duì)……開(kāi)放”。聯(lián)系上文,作者因?yàn)椴缓ε聡L試,所以不斷嘗試新機(jī)會(huì),所以獲得很多技能。故選C。

13.考查動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:我還發(fā)現(xiàn)如果我相信我正在做的事情并且努力工作就會(huì)實(shí)現(xiàn)我的目標(biāo)。A. think of“考慮,思考”;B. give in“屈服”;C. believe in“相信…”;D. turn into“變成”。結(jié)合本句句意和四個(gè)選項(xiàng),作者因?yàn)橄嘈藕筒粩鄧L試而不斷進(jìn)步。故選C。

14.考查名詞及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:我還發(fā)現(xiàn)如果我相信我正在做的事情并且努力工作就會(huì)實(shí)現(xiàn)我的目標(biāo)。A. business“商業(yè)”;B. goal“目標(biāo)”;C. growth“成長(zhǎng)”;D. way“方式”。結(jié)合后文I will succeed. “我就會(huì)成功”,可知答案為B。

15.考查連詞及語(yǔ)境的理解。句意:那就是為什么我樂(lè)于成為職業(yè)寓言的一部分。A. why“為什么”;B. because“因?yàn)椤保籆. so“所以”;D. for“為,給”。上文闡述都是原因,因此用why引導(dǎo)表語(yǔ)從句。故選A。

AN ice ball shoots across the night sky, lighting up its path along the way, like a flying sun.

Ancient humans were afraid of the sight of comets(彗星). Many cultures believed that comets were messages sent by gods, and people thought these messages were warning signs for bad behavior. But today science and technology give us a better understanding of comets.

Last week, comet Ison ended its million-year-long journey as it flew straight toward the sun, melting most of the comet. It was hoped that comet Ison would survive this trip around the sun. Because once it got near Earth, it would have produced a great show of lights for us.

In ancient times, the coming of comet Ison might have scared people. However, now we can track a comet’s journey in our solar system. We can also study what they’re made of. There is even a project to launch a spacecraft onto a comet to study them further.

Although from the sky they look like great giant fireballs, comets are a collection of gas, ice, dust and small rocks. As a comet goes into our solar system, the sun’s solar winds blow some of the dust and gas away, giving the comet a tail. The average size of comets is about 10 kilometers in diameter(直徑). But amazingly, their tails can be 150 kilometers long! Comet Ison’s diameter was about 5 kilometers.

Today, people don’t fear comets as much as they did before. Western countries have even developed and old tradition. When people see a comet or meteoroid(流星) shooting across the sky, they call it a shooting star, People who get the chance to see one get to make a wish. It is a tradition that lives on today.

1.In ancient times, people thought comets were _____.

A.warning signs sent by gods

B. lucky signs for good behavior

C. great shows of lights

D. flying suns

2.We can tell from the third paragraph that comet Ison ___.

A.finished its long journey to Mars

B. survived its trip around the sun

C.has reached the Earth

D. was melted by the sun

3.When a comet travels near the sun, some of the __ will be blown away by the solar winds.

A.gas and dust B. ice and rocks

C. dust and rocks D. rocks and tail

4.According to the last paragraph, what tradition lives on today?

A.Being scared by comets and meteoroids.

B.Making a wish when seeing a shooting star

C.Launching spacecrafts onto comets to study them further.

D.Having a better understanding of comets

Did you sleep the day away on March 21? Well, you should have done that because it was World Sleeping Day. This is the one day of the year when people around the world care about their sleep and ask themselves a lot of questions about sleep.

Why do we need sleep? Nobody as yet can give a correct answer to this question. However, tests have shown that lack(缺少)of sleep over about four weeks leads to a strong drop in body temperature, great weight loss and finally sickness.

Different people need different amounts of sleep. Eight hours a night is considered the average amount of sleep. For teenagers the least number of sleeping hours advised by doctors are ten hours for primary school students, nine for junior highs and eight for senior highs.

Some people seem to get along just fine with very little sleep at night. Leading American scientist Thomas Edison said that sleep was a waste of time. He did, however, take naps during the day. On the other hand. Albert Einstein, another great scientist, said he needed at least ten hours' sleep a night.

Here are some of the most useful suggestions, for a good night's sleep:

Go to bed regularly.

Use your bed only to sleep.

Don't exercise in the evening.

Keep the bedroom dark and quiet.

Drink a glass of milk before sleep.
