第二部分 阅读理解
第一节:共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.
A
On the first day of school our professor introduced a new classmate—a wrinkled little old lady—to us. Her name was Rose, and she was eighty-seven years old.
After class Rose and I walked to the Student Union Building and shared a chocolate milk-shake. She told me she always dreamed of having a college education and now she was getting one. We became instant friends. Every day for the following months, we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always attracted, listening to this “time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.
Rose became famous and easily made friends wherever she went. She tended to be highly motivated, responsible, and deeply involved in class participation. In spare time she had someone hang out or go to bars with. She even participated in some form of athletic activity. She said that extra-curricular activities can form a vital part of her experience, creating unique chances for friendship and learning.
At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football meal. A little embarrassed, she leaned into the microphone and simply said, “I’m sorry I’ m so nervous.” As we laughed, she cleared her throat and began, “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you’re nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year, you will turn twenty. If I’m eighty-seven years old and stay in bed for a year, I will turn eighty-eight. Anybody can grow older. It’s non-optional but that doesn’t take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the chance in change. In this way the elderly don’t have regrets for what they did, but rather for things they did not do.” Rose concluded her speech by courageously singing “The Rose”. She challenged us to study the words of the song and lived them out in daily lives.
At the year’s end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college students attended her funeral in honor of the wonderful woman who taught by
example that it’s never too late to be all you can possibly be.
21. Why does the author compare Rose to “time machine” in Paragraph 2?
A. To stress her old age and knowledge of life.
B. To describe the close friendship between them.
C. To show that she always enjoyed her active life.
D. To explain why she took on a challenge in college.
22. Rose was invited to speak at the football meal most probably because ________.
A. she was a great football fan. B. she was the smartest student.
C. she tried hard to achieve her dream. D. she became more educated than the others.
23. We can learn that Rose agreed with the idea that ________.
A. growing older means growing up.
B. it takes talent and ability to grow up.
C. high education helps to be courageous.
D. one grows older as he grows up.
24. The passage is intended to ________.
A. provide an example for the elderly. B. discuss how to grow up quickly.
C. tell the importance of attending college. D. inspire the readers to live up to lives.
25. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Time Machine. B. Dream in Heart. C. Rose’s Life Story. D. Growing up.
【答案】21. A 22. C 23. B 24. D 25. B
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。这篇文章主要介绍了作者在大学的第一天遇到了87岁的老人。老人在学期末参加了他们的聚会,老人所说的话让人难忘:我们不是因为老了而不玩了,而是因为不玩了而老了。要在不断变化中寻找机会来成长。
【21题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句I was always attracted, listening to this " time
machine" as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.(当她和我分享她的智慧和经验时,我总是被这个“时间机器”所吸引。)可知,作者将Rose与第二段中的“time machine”进行比较是为了强调她的年龄大和生活的知识。故选A。
【22题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中The idea is to grow up by always finding the chance in change. In this way the elderly don't have regrets for what they did, but rather for things they did not do.(我们的理念是,在变化中寻找机会,成长。这样,老年人就不会为他们所做的事后悔,而是为他们没有做的事后悔。)可知,罗丝被邀请在足球赛中发言,很可能是因为她努力实现她的梦想。故选C。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中Anybody can grow older.(每一个人都会长大。)It' s non-optional but that doesn' t take any talent or ability.(这是不可选择的,但不需要任何天赋或能力。)The idea is to grow up by always finding the chance in change.(我们的想法是通过不断寻找改变的机会来成长。)可知,我们可以了解到Rose同意成长需要天赋和能力。故选B。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句Over two thousand college students attended her funeral in honor of the wonderful woman who taught by example that it' s never too late to be all you can possibly be.(两千多名大学生参加了她的葬礼,以纪念这位伟大的女性。她是一位了不起的女性,她以身作则地教导我们,尽你所能,永远不嫌晚)可知,本文目的是鼓励读者不要辜负自己的生活。故选D。
【25题详解】
主旨大意题。本文通过一个87岁老奶奶努力追求梦想,完成大学学业的故事和她的一些人生感悟,鼓励读者勇于尝试,不辜负生活,将心中的梦想付诸行动的故事。故B项是最佳标题。
【点睛】推理判断题要求考生在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上,做出一定的判断和推理,从而得出文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理判断题属于主观性较强的高层次阅读理解题,做这类题目时,同学们应严格依据作者所陈述的细节、事实以及作者的措词、态度和语气等,找出能够表露作者思想倾向和感情色彩的词语,然后利用自己已获得的相关知识进行推理判断,从而得出符合逻辑的结论。如第三小题,根据第二段中Anybody can grow older. 每一个人都会长大。It' s non-optional but that doesn' t take any talent or ability.
这是不可选的,但不需要任何天赋或能力。The idea is to grow up by always finding the chance in change. 我们的想法是通过不断寻找改变的机会来成长。可知,我们可以了解到Rose同意成长需要天赋和能力。可知答案为B。
B
The long, white robot weighs more than 450 kilograms. Like other robots, it is equipped with cameras and mechanical arms to automatically perform many different jobs.
Angus is a major part of operations at Alexander’s indoor robot farm about 40 kilometers south of San Francisco. The 743-square-meter farm uses a hydroponic system that grows plants without soil. The plants grow inside equipment that provides a continuous flow of water. The indoor farm uses electrical light instead of sunlight.
This kind of farm uses much less water and does not require human labor to run. The main job for Angus is to transfer thousands of plants around the farm, from small containers to larger ones as they grow. Angus also carries plants to another robot that does not have a name yet. Angus moves slowly to complete its work. But the robot is very strong and can lift about 300 kilograms.
For now, the farm uses humans to collect vegetables and other crops when they are ready. But Alexander says he is working on a robot that will eventually take over that job too.
Alexander helped start the company Iron Ox after leaving Google, where he worked on robotics at the company’s Google X project. He teamed up with another former Google employee, Jon Binney. Together they founded Iron Ox.
Iron Ox’s website says the hydroponic growing system uses 90 percent less water. It also says the growing method is up to 30 times more productive than growing crops on land.
Alexander says growing food robotically throughout the year in major cities will provide more consistent(一致的) and fresh products. Most of the vegetables sold in the U.S. are grown in California, Arizona, Mexico and other nations. That means many
people in the U.S. cities are eating vegetables that are nearly a week old by the time they arrive at stores.
Indoor farms operate all year round and are not generally affected by bad weather. This will permit the company to provide a steady flow of goods without major price changes.
26. What does a “hydroponic system” provide to the plants?
A. Sunlight. B. Fertilizer. C. Water. D. Soil.
27. How does Angus work in the farm?
A. It provides water for the plants.
B. It directs other robots to work.
C. It works on collecting vegetables.
D. It is in charge of moving plants.
28. What do we know about Alexander?
A. He started to work on robotics after leaving Google.
B. He started a company with Binney.
C. He works on collecting crops.
D. He started Iron Ox by himself.
29. What’s the advantage of Alexander’s farm?
A. The vegetables from his farm sell at a higher price.
B. The vegetables from his farm are more nutritious.
C. It uses electrical light instead of sunlight.
D. It uses less water but produces more.
30. Which of the following can be a suitable title of the test?
A. Robot Farm, the Future of the Agriculture
B. Robot Farm, Aiming to Bring Fresher Food to the U.S. Cities
C. Alexander, an Extraordinary Scientist on Robotics
D. Hydroponic System, the New Way of Farming
【答案】26. C 27. D 28. B 29. D 30. B
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍一个用机器人管理的农场,用更少的水生产更多农作物,能够提供更多的新鲜蔬菜。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中The 743-square-meter farm uses a hydroponic system that grows plants without soil. The plants grow inside equipment that provides a continuous flow of water.(这个占地743平方米的农场使用的是一种水培系统,可以在没有土壤的情况下种植植物。这些植物生长在提供连续水流的设备内。)可知,hydroponic system提供给植物的是水。故选C。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段Angus also carries plants to another robot that does not have a name yet. Angus moves slowly to complete its work.(Angus还把植物运送给另一个还没有名字的机器人。Angus缓慢地移动完成它的工作)可知,Angus在农场中负责移动植物。故选D。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段Alexander helped start the company Iron Ox after leaving Google, where he worked on robotics at the company's Google x project. He teamed up with another former Google employee, Jon Binney. Together they founded Iron Ox. (亚历山大在离开谷歌后帮助创办了铁牛公司,他在谷歌X项目中从事机器人方面的工作。他与另一位前谷歌雇员Jon Binney合作,共同创立了铁牛公司。)可知,他和宾尼创办了一家研究机器人的公司。故选B。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段Iron Ox’s website says the hydroponic growing system uses 90 percent less water. It also said the growing method is up to 30 times more productive than growing crops on land. (铁牛的网站上说,水培生长系统消耗的水少了90%。它还说,这种生长方法比在陆地上种植作物的效率高出30倍。)可知,Alexander农场的优势在于用更少的水但是产量更高,故选D。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。文章介绍一个用机器人管理的农场,用更少的水生产更多农作物,能够提供更多的新鲜蔬菜,可知标题为机器人农场,旨在为美国城市带来更新鲜的食物,故选B。
【点睛】细节理解题解题方法
细节理解题属直接解答性问题,是阅读理解题中最简单的一种,多数属中低难度的题。但高考所占的比例大,应特别引起注意。事实和细节题的命题特点是:对文章或某一段落中的一些特定细节或文章重要事实的理解,一般包括直接理解题和语义转化题。直接理解题能在原文直接找到答案,而语义转化题则需要将题目信息与原文信息加工或整理后才能得出结论。
做细节理解题具体方法与步骤如下:
1.略读材料,大概了解原文,掌握中心或主旨。经常有新技术对将来人们工作和生活不良影响的预测,但事实证明结果并不是那样,我们有必要否定预测,以减少人们的恐惧。
2.按文章的体裁,作者写作的组织模式及有关的信息词。如for example, first, second…等预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实。
3.将精力放在寻找你所需要的细节上。快速通篇跳读,全文扫视,找到细节出处,待找到含细节句子时,放慢速度,仔细核对比较内容,直至找到答案。
如第三小题,根据第五段Alexander helped start the company Iron Ox after leaving Google, where he worked on robotics at the company's Google x project. He teamed up with another former Google employee, Jon Binney. Together they founded Iron Ox.(亚历山大在离开谷歌后帮助创办了铁牛公司,他在谷歌X项目中从事机器人方面的工作。他与另一位前谷歌雇员Jon Binney合作,共同创立了铁牛公司。)可知,他和宾尼创办了一家研究机器人的公司。故选B。
C
Nowadays more and more people are too busy with work to relax themselves. We have no time to tell a bed-time story to our children, or enjoy a nice dinner with our family, or take a break to think about how we live the precious life, or even meet friends. All we notice is that the distinctions that used to guide and steady us—between Sunday and Monday, public and private, here and there—are gone. We have more ways to communicate, but less and less to say, partly because we’re so busy communicating.
Maybe that’s why more and more people I know, even if they have no religious belief, seem to be turning to yoga, or mediation, or tai chi. Some friends of mine try to go on long walks every Sunday, or to “forget” their cellphones at home. A series of tests in recent years has shown that their brains become both calmer and
sharper after spending time in quiet rural settings.
In my own case, I often turn to extreme measures to try to keep my sanity and ensure that I have time to do nothing at all. I’ve not yet used a cellphone and I’ve never Tweeted or entered Facebook. I tried not to go online till my day’s writing was finished, and I moved from Manhattan to rural Japan.
None of this is a matter of principle or asceticism (苦行主义): It’s just pure selfishness. Nothing makes me feel better—calmer, clearer and happier—than being in one place, absorbed in a book, a conversation, a piece of music. It’s actually something deeper than mere happiness: It’s joy, which David Steindl-Rast describes as “that kind of happiness that doesn’t depend on what happens”. That is the highest of the highest we have been longing for—The Joy of Quiet.
31. What does the underlined word “distinctions” refer to?
A. complication. B. similarity. C. simplicity. D. difference.
32. What does the writer mean when using the word “forget” in the 2nd paragraph?
A. Trapped in busy work, they are really forgetful.
B. The cellphone is not a suitable means of communication.
C. They leave their cellphones at home on purpose.
D. They hate modern techniques such as the cellphone.
33. The writer sometimes doesn’t do anything because __________.
A. he is out of work
B. whatever he does makes no sense
C. he can enjoy himself in his leisure time
D. he is worried about his writing
34. What can we learn from the passage?
A. The writer is unwilling to help others since he is selfish.
B. Slowing down to find deep-down joy is necessary.
C. It is better to go back to the ancient times since we are so busy now.
D. We have more to say because we have more ways to communicate.
35. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Enjoying quiet time is very important.
B. We can do some sports such as yoga to relax.
C. To feel better, we should do nothing at all.
D. The more we communicate, the better we will feel.
【答案】31. D 32. C 33. C 34. B 35. A
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了现代社会人们越来越忙碌,很少进行休息,文章对这一现象进行阐明并发表了作者自己的看法,结合自己的做法,作者最后说明要享受平静带来的乐趣。
【31题详解】
词义猜测题。根据下文that used to guide and steady us—between Sunday and Monday, public and private, here and there—are gone可知,我们只注意到周日和周一、公共和私有、这儿和那儿的这些“区别”,这些曾引领我们、使我们生活稳定。故可推测划线部分单词意思为“区别;不同”,故选D。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段Maybe that’s why more and more people I know, even if they have no religious commitment, seem to be turning to yoga, or meditation, or tai chi. Some friends of mine try to go on long walks every Sunday, or to “forget” their cellphones at home.可知,作者认识的人,他们并非出于宗教方面的原因可是也去参加瑜伽、太极、远足,并且故意不拿手机。所以作者在第二段中使用“忘记”这个词是指为了享受宁静,他们故意把手机留在家里。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。结合倒数第一段Nothing makes me feel better—calmer,clearer and happier—than being in one place, absorbed in a book, a conversation, a piece of music.和倒数第二段可知,作者有时候喜欢什么都不干,是因为他可以在闲暇时享受自我。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中It’s actually something deeper than mere happiness: It’s joy, which David Steindl-Rast describes as “that kind of happiness that doesn’t depend on what happens”.(事实上,它不仅仅是一种快乐:它是一种愉悦,David Steindl-Rast
将其描述为“一种不依赖于发生了什么事情的愉悦”。)以及结合文章内容可知,放慢脚步去寻找内心深处的快乐是必要的。故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。文章讲述了现代社会人们越来越忙碌,很少进行休息,文章对这一现象进行阐明并发表了作者自己的看法,结合自己的做法,作者最后点明主题要享受平静带来的乐趣。所以A项概括文章大意。故选A。
【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一,可以大致分为
① 定义猜词,可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用refer to,be called或that’s to say,such as等。
② 逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义,例如,similarly,the same as,but,however,while,on the other hand,since ,because等,所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。
③ 语法猜词,可以根据构词法,再结合上下文进行猜词。
④ 语境猜词,猜测词义离不开上下文的语境,通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析,同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。
⑤ 指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容,做题时要注意指代词的位置,以便于判断,然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词,核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致,最后比较所找部分与选项,确定意思最接近的选项。
如第一小题,根据下文that used to guide and steady us—between Sunday and Monday, public and private, here and there—are gone可知我们只注意到周日和周一、公共和私有、这儿和那儿的这些“区别”,这些曾引领我们、使我们生活稳定。故可推测划线部分单词意思为“区别;不同”,故选D。

38. E 39. G
40. B
【解析】

A. escaped from injury B. escaped from injured

64.I will try to make it known to every teacher and more students ______the activities organized by the club.
A. who get involved in B. to involve C. involve in D. who involve in
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:我将尽力让参加到这个俱乐部举办的活动中的每一个老师和更多的学生都知道。先行词为人,在从句中作主语成分,所以用who引导,根据题意可知是“涉及,被卷入,参加”,因此应该用被动语态。所以A项正确。D项错误。如若用后置定语的形式,也该用过去分词作后置定语,involved in,所以B项、C项错误。综上,故选A。
【点睛】定语从句的关系词的选择可考虑以下三点:
(1)一看先行词的意义,即分清先行词是指人、指物、时间、地点还是原因(如指物时不能用who或whom,指人时通常不用which等)
(2)二看关系词的句法功能,即分清关系词是担任什么句子成分,是作主语还是宾语、是作定语还是状语等(如作定语通常用whose,有时也用which;作状语要用when, where, why)
(3)三看定语从句的种类,即分清是限制性定语从句还是非限制性定语从句(如that和why通常不引导非限制性定语从句)
65.He made it clear that paying an official to bend the rules_____ should be regarded as illegal.
A. in one’s favor B. on offer C. to favor D. who favor
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查短语辨析。句意:他明确表示,付钱给官员让他为某个人的利益而改变规则应该被视为非法。A. in one’s favor对……有利;支持某人;B. on offer出售;C. to favor为了帮助。本句为动名词短语做主语,不是定语从句,排除D选项。根据句意故选A。
66.I had my pocket ______while shopping in the central mall. Bad luck.
A. stolen B. lost C. picked D. packed
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查动词辨析。句意:我在中央商场购物时被人扒窃了口袋。坏运气。A. stolen偷窃;B. lost失去;C. picked扒窃;捡起;D. packed包装。短语have one's pocket picked“某人口袋被偷”为固定搭配,故选C。
67.The photo showed Edward with very short hair and his ears ______out.
A. sticking B. stuck C. stick D. strike
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:照片上的爱德华头发很短,耳朵伸出来。本句已经存在谓语动词且句中没有连词,故stick作非谓语动词与逻辑主语ears构成主动关系,用现在分词,故选A。
68.Learning strategies (策略), _____teachers attach importance, haven’t drawn enough attention of students.
A. that B. though C. to which D. by which
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:老师们重视的学习策略没有引起学生们的足够重视。短语attach importance to“重视”,to为介词,故排除A、B和D选项;which引导定语从句修饰先行词Learning strategies。故选C。
69.Intelligence does not ________ mean success. You need diligence as well.
A. honestly B. formally C. simply D. necessarily
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查副词辨析。句意:聪明未必意味着成功。你还需要勤奋。A. honestly诚实地;B. formally正式地;C. simply简单地;D. necessarily必然地。根据后文You need diligence as well.可知,聪明不一定意味着成功,故选D。
70.His firm character accounted _______for his success.
A. in general B. in place C. in particular D. in part
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查短语辨析。句意:他坚强的性格是他成功的部分原因。A. in general
总之;通常;一般来说;B. in place适当的;C. in particular特别;D. in part部分地;在某种程度上。根据句意故选D。

【详解】考查连词辨析。句意:时间过得很快,在我们知道这件事以前已经有三年过去了。我是多么后悔我浪费了时间啊!A. after在……之后;B. till直到;C. before在……之前;D. when当……时候。空前说三年已经过去了,说明这个时间发生在we knew it(我们知道)之前。故选C。
【点睛】before的用法如下:
conj. (连词)
1、before主要引导时间状语从句,意为“先于”“……之后才”“(不多久)就……”。当主句是将来时时,从句谓语动词须用现在时;当主句是一般过去时或过去完成时时,从句常用过去时。before引导的时间状语从句不能用于否定式。
2、before还可用于barely/scarcelybefore结构,意为“刚……就……”。
3、before还可引导让步状语从句,意思是“宁愿……也不……”。
4、before引导的从句常用省略句型。
prep.(介词)
1、before可用于表示时间。首先,可以表示“先于,在……以前”,其后可以跟表示具体日期、时间等的名词或数词,也可以跟表示时间或动作的名词。其次,可以表示“在做……之前”,后接 v -ing。再次,可以表示“紧接在……之前”。
2、before用于否定句还可表示“直到……为止”。注意before之后只能接表示时间点的名词,而不能接表示时间段的名词。
3、before可用于表示动态或静态位置,意思是“在……之前”,与behind相对。
adv. (副词)
1、before用作副词时,意思是“以前,在前面”,表示从较近的过去至较远的过去。用作时间状语泛指以前、不与具体时间连用时,谓语动词可以用一般过去时,也可用现在完成时,前者只表示“过去发生过”,后者则强调“对现在有影响”。
2、before与具体时间连用时,一般置于其后,谓语动词通常用过去完成时。
3、before也可表示空间或位置的“在前,在前面”,还可表示运动“到前面”。
74.It is known to all that _______ you exercise regularly, you won’t keep good health.
A. unless B. whenever C. although D. if
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查连词。句意:众所周知,除非你经常运动,要不然你不会健康。A. unless除非;B. whenever无论何时;C. although尽管;D. if如果;是否。根据语境,表示“除非”,故选A。
75. _____, I could not memorize the text.
A. However hard did I try B. However hard I tried
C. However I tried hard D. However I had tried hard
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查让步状语从句。句意:无论我多努力,都没能记住这些长单词。However引导让步状语从句的结构是:However+adj/adv.+主谓,根据句意选B。

【答案】1. in后加a
2. who→which

4. too→so
5. with→to
6. permits→permitting
7. out→away
8. back→off
9. which→where
10. dealing→dealt
【解析】
【分析】
考查单句改错。
【详解】1.考查固定短语。句意:偶尔和朋友去听音乐会或看电影是一种解脱。固定短语once in a while“偶尔;有时”,故in后添加a。
2.考查定语从句。句意:我们老师对名字的记忆力很好,这对她的工作帮助很大。本句为非限定性定语从句修饰先行词memory,且先行词在从句中作主语,指物,故应用which。故who改为which。
3.考查固定短语。句意:说到数学,我完全不懂。固定短语when it comes to sth.“当提到某事;说到……”,故While改为When。
4.考查固定句式。句意:雨下得很大,我们禁不住想知道到那里要花多长时间。固定句式so…that…“如此……以致于……”,so修饰形容词hard。故too改为so。
5.考查介词。句意:我必须限制自己每天只喝一杯咖啡,以免得心脏病。固定短语limit oneself to sth.“在……方面限定自己”,故with改为to。
6.考查独立结构。句意:如果天气允许,我们明天动身。本句为独立主格结构,用法上等于条件状语从句if weather permits。本句中名词weather与permit之间是主动关系,故permit应用现在分词。故permits改为permitting。
7.考查固定短语。句意:他说他不紧张,但额头上的汗泄露了他的秘密。固定短语give away“泄露”,故out改为away。
8.考查固定短语。句意:桑德拉决心成为一名医生,她所有的努力终于有了回报。固定短语pay off“取得成功;回报”。故back改为off。
9.考查宾语从句。句意:如果你要去的地方的风俗习惯对你自己是陌生的,请照罗马人的做法去做。本句为宾语从句,从句中缺少地点状语,故which改为where。
10.考查非谓语动词。句意:这些问题,如果处理不当,将导致更大的问题。本句为状语从句的省略,省略了从句中的be动词,谓语动词deal与problem
构成被动关系,故应用过去分词,故dealing改为dealt。
