Author and poet Samuel Ullman once wrote，“Years wrinkle the skin，but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.” Enthusiastic people also love what they do ， regardless of money or title or power.If we cannot do what we love as a fulltime career，we can treat it as a parttime interest，like the head of state who paints，the nun(修女)who runs marathons，and the official who handcrafts(手工制 作)furniture. We can't afford to waste tears on“mighthavebeens”．We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after“whatcanbe”． We need to live each moment wholeheartedly，with all our sensesfinding pleasure in the fragrance of a backyard garden ， the crayoned( 蜡 笔 的 )picture of a sixyearold ， the enchanting，beauty of a rainbow.It is such enthusiastic love of life that puts a sparkle in our eyes，a lift in our steps and smoothes the wrinkles from our souls. 【解题导语】　作者在找工作时，有人劝导他“要有热情”。作者通过自身经历充分认 识到热情在生活和工作中的重要性，生活是艰难的，成功是不容易的，但只要有热情，只要 对生活充满爱，一切都会好的。 1．What can be the best title of this passage? A．Find pleasure in what you are doing B．Wake up your life C．To give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul D．No pains，no gains 答案　B　[主旨大意题。本篇文章主要讲述了热情在生活和工作中的重要性，只要有热 情，只要心中有爱，万事都能成功，因此 B 项“激起生活(的热情)”为最佳标题。] 2．What conclusion does the writer draw through the experience of finding a job? A．Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience. B．Years wrinkle the skin，but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. C．We can't afford to waste tears on“mighthavebeens”． D．Enthusiastic people can turn a boring drive into an adventure，extra work into opportunity and strangers into friends. 答案　D　[细节理解题。根据第二段“Enthusiastic people can turn a boring drive into an adventure，extra work into opportunity and strangers into friends”这是作者从寻找工作的经历中 悟出来的人生真谛。] 3．Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the passage? A．No one can achieve great success without enthusiasm. B．Enthusiasm will take a person further than any amount of his experience. C．We should make great efforts to do the thing that can be done instead of regretting for the past. D．Barbara McClintock was generally accepted many years before she won the Nobel Prize. 答案　D　[细节理解题。根据第四段“It took years and years for the early work of Barbara McClintock...to be generally accepted”可知选 D 项。] 4．Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “let up”？ A．Continue. B．Make less effort. C．Make great effort. D．Stop. 答案　B　[词义猜测题。上文已经提到 Barbara McClintock 获得诺贝尔奖之前很多年都 没能被人广泛接受。尽管如此，她并没有因此而少做实验，B 项中 make less effort 与 let up 的意思最为靠近，且构成短语 make effort on，因此尽管 stop 意思也很靠近，但不符合词语 搭配。] B 体裁： 记叙文 话题： 人生感悟 词数：401 难度： ★★★ 建议用时： 7 分钟 Poet William Stafford once said that we are defined more by the detours(绕行路)in life than by the narrow road toward goals.I like this image.But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words. For years we made the long drive from our home in Seattle to my parents' home in Boise in nine hours.We traveled the way most people do：the fastest，shortest, easiest road，especially when I was alone with four noisy，restless kids who hates confinement(限制)and have strong opinions about everything. Road trips felt risky，so I would drive fast，stopping only when I had to.We would stick to the freeways and arrive tired. But then Banner，our lamb was born.He was rejected by his mama days before our planned trip to Boise.I had two choices：leave Banner with my husband，or take him with me.My husband made the decision for me. That is how I found myself on the road with four kids，a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through.We took the country roads out of necessity.We had to stop every hour ， let Banner shake out his legs and feed him.The kids chased him and one another.They'd get back in the car breathless and energized，smelling fresh from the cold air. We explored side roads，catching grasshoppers in waisthigh grass.Even if we simply looked out of the car windows at baby pigs following their mother，or fish leaping out of the water，it was better than the best ride down the freeway. Here was life.And new horizons(见识)． We eventually arrived at my parents'doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of stories. I grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique.On an empty section of road，everyone started quarreling.I stopped the car，ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead.I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence. Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight.But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of a journey—and the best part of yourself. 【解题导语】　很多时候生活中的旅行需要快速直接地到达目的地，但是有时候绕道而 行也别有一番趣味。 5．Why did the author use to take freeways to her parents'home? A．It was less time. B．It would be faster and safer. C．Her kids would feel less confined. D．She felt better with other drivers nearby. 答案　B　[细节理解题。根据第三段可判断选 B。] 6．The author stopped regularly on the country roads to________. A．relax in the fresh air B．take a deep breath C．take care of the lamb D．let the kids play with Banner 答案　C　[细节理解题。根据第五段第一句和第三句可判断选 C。] 7．What does the author discover from the trip according to Paragraph 6? A．Freeways are where beauty hides. B．Getting close to nature adds to the joy of life. C．Enjoying the beauty of nature benefits one's health. D．One should follow side roads to watch wild animals. 答案　B　[推理判断题。根据第六段判断选 B。] 8．Why did the author ask the kids to get out of the car on their way back home? A．To give herself some time to read. B．To order some food for them. C．To play a game with them. D．To let them cool down. 答案　D　[推理判断题。根据第八段可知在回家的路上孩子们开始争吵；作者就停下 车，叫孩子们下车，目的就是要让他们冷静下来。] Ⅴ.短文改错 During last summer vacation，I thought I should do something meaningfully，so I got a job at a fast food restaurant and worked there for a cleaner.I worked seven hour a day for three weeks.The job was boring and seemed endless，in which made me so tired that I nearly stopped them half way.However，I stick to it with determination.Every day I started off for work early in the morning but got home late in the evening.Finally，I finished the job before the new school term.Now，I understand that labor means.I think it is really successful experience，which is worth remember forever. 答案
