Ⅳ.七选五 Education has always been a hot topic.How to educate children can be a sweet but painstaking task for parents,many of whom try to offer their children the best environment.Competition between parents over children’s education may start from the kind of animated (动画)series children watch.　1　 By watching the former,children can learn English at the same time.However,this does not mean those watching foreign shows perform better than those watching Chinese ones. 　2　 They can help children learn traditional Chinese culture and history.Take Journey to the West for example.　3　 ‎ By watching this show,children can learn more about the history of the Tang Dynasty and the development of Buddhist culture in China.Foreign shows can open a window for children to gain a better understanding of the outside world.So,children ought to be encouraged to watch both as long as the content of the show is beneficial.‎ This can also be applied to other things beyond animated series.　4　 However,some parents fail to do this.Their incorrect view can more or less leave an influence on their children.Innocent (天真的)children,influenced by their parents,slowly hold the view that watching foreign shows is better than watching Chinese shows.　5　 ‎ A.Chinese shows have their own advantages.‎ B.Foreign animated series are always the first choice for parents.‎ C.Children often follow their parents’ advice when choosing animated series.‎ D.For example,children can be encouraged to read folk tales at home and abroad.‎ E.Once the view is formed in children’s minds,parents’ education proves a failure.‎ F.This show is based on one of the four great classical novels of Chinese literature.‎ G.For some parents,watching foreign animated shows is better than watching Chinese ones.‎ 答案1~5 GAFDE

‎【语篇解读】本文为记叙文。作者拥有大多数人所说的美好生活,工作稳定,家庭美满,但是她却感觉不满足。因为作者从小是个有恐惧感、害羞且不自信的人。她想改变这一切,于是报名到越南教学,自己在陌生的环境中克服了这些缺点,变得连自己都不认识自己了。‎ ‎　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　‎ ‎1.A.stable B.temporary C.difficult D.demanding 答案A 解析根据该空前的“I had what most people would call a good life.”可知,我拥有人们所说的美好生活,因此应该有一份稳定的(stable)工作。temporary“暂时的”;difficult“困难的”;demanding“要求高的,苛求的”。‎ ‎2.A.Thus B.Instead C.Otherwise D.However 答案D 解析根据该空后的“I was bored”可知,我的生活没有什么大问题,可是(However),我很无聊。前后是转折关系。thus“于是,因此”;instead“代替,反而”;otherwise“否则;要不然”。‎ ‎3.A.easily B.brightly C.peacefully D.modestly 答案B 解析根据“live...and loudly”可知,我想要过明亮(brightly)华丽地生活。所填的词要与loudly(华丽地)并列。easily“容易地”;peacefully“平静地,安宁地”;modestly“谦虚地,审慎地”。‎ ‎4.A.proud B.innocent C.outgoing D.afraid 答案D 解析根据该空后的“I had never had any confidence in myself”可知,作者小时候是缺乏自信的,所以可能很害怕(afraid)。proud“自豪的”;innocent“无辜的,无罪的”;outgoing“对人友好的,开朗的”。‎ ‎5.A.added to B.talked about C.got over D.suffered from 答案C 解析根据该空前的“I had never had any confidence in myself”可知,作者缺乏自信所以始终无法克服(got over)童年的羞怯的恐惧。add to“增加,增添”;talk about“谈论,讨论”;suffer from“遭受”。‎ ‎6.A.continued B.survived C.failed D.helped 答案D 解析根据该空前的“And I tried everything”以及前文可知,作者缺乏自信所以尝试一切去克服,但它们都没有真正地有帮助(helped)。continue“继续”;survive“幸存”;fail“失败,没做”。‎ ‎7.A.figured B.promised C.predicted D.disagreed 答案A 解析根据该空后的“I signed up for an internship of teaching English in Vietnam”可知,作者觉得(figured)朝着目标小步走是不够的,所以决定报名参加在越南的实习教英语。promise“承诺”;predict“预测”;disagree“不同意”。‎ ‎8.A.equally B.impossibly C.unnecessarily D.occasionally 答案B 解析根据前文中的“I had never had any confidence in myself and never quite...that childhood shyness.”可知,作者是个非常害羞的人,现在要去越南教英语的确是一个不可思议的(impossibly)巨大的一步。equally“平等地”;unnecessarily“不必要地”;occasionally“偶尔”。‎ ‎9.A.nice B.colourful C.strange D.inadequate 答案C 解析根据空前的“I was alone in a country”,空后的“...and the streets were unfamiliar”可知,这里是在讲在异国他乡的不便之处,陌生的环境,“奇怪的”饮食。nice“好的”; colourful“富有色彩的,鲜艳的”;inadequate“不充分的,不适当的”。‎ ‎10.A.doubt B.handle C.quit D.obtain 答案B 解析根据该空后的“everything”可知,作者不知道自己是否能处理(handle)陌生环境中的事情。doubt“怀疑”;quit“放弃”;obtain“获得”。‎ ‎11.A.point B.throw C.shout D.aim 答案B 解析根据前文中的“were unfamiliar...everything”可知,该处指不知是否能处理好陌生环境抛向我的事情。point“表明,指向”;shout“呼喊,叫喊”; aim“瞄准,针对”。throw at sb意为“扔向……,抛向……”。‎ ‎12.A.trust B.enjoy C.excuse D.forgive 答案A 解析根据该空前的“I had never had any confidence in myself and never quite　5　that childhood shyness.”可知,作者以前对自己不自信,现在通过国外的实习,学会了相信(trust)自己。enjoy“享受”;excuse“原谅,为……申辩,免除”;forgive“原谅,饶恕”。 ‎ ‎13.A.unconcerned B.unsatisfied C.unchangeable D.unrecognizable 答案D 解析根据该空前的“I’d learnt to　12　all of myself.”可知,作者出国实习之前不自信,恐惧害羞,而现在自信了,回到家时,变得让人不认识了,变化太大。unconcerned“不感兴趣的,不关心的”;unsatisfied“不满意的”;unchangeable“不可改变的”。 ‎ ‎14.A.fear B.respect C.courage D.anger 答案A 解析根据该空后的“that had controlled my life and the self-doubt”可知,以前作者一直有恐惧,此处与自我怀疑并列的只有恐惧(fear)。respect“尊敬”;courage“勇气”;anger“生气”。‎ ‎15.A.picked up B.forgotten about C.worn away D.put off 答案C 解析根据该空前的“...that had controlled my life and the self-doubt”,可知,影响我生活恐惧和自我怀疑完全消失(worn away)了。pick up“拾起,习得”;forget about“遗忘”; put off“推迟”。‎ Ⅵ.语法填空 I recently heard a story about a famous scientist.When he 1.　　　　　(ask)why he was able to succeed,he gave the answer.It all came from an experience with 2. mother when he was about two years old.“I was trying to get a bottle of milk from the fridge when I lost the bottle and it fell,spilling (溢出)the milk all over the floor—a sea of milk!I got 3.　　　　　 (frighten)and I didn’t know what to do!” he said. ‎ Instead of 4.　　　　　(punish)him,his mother asked him to play in the milk for a while.Then she said,“You know,we failed in how to 5.　　　　　(successful)carry a big milk bottle with two tiny 6.(hand)just now.Let’s go out in the yard and fill the bottle 7. water to see if you can discover a way to carry it.” ‎ This famous scientist then remarked that it was at that moment that he 8.　　　　　(know)he didn’t need to be afraid to make mistakes 9.　　　　　 were actually opportunities for learning something new.Even if the experiment “doesn’t work”,we usually learn something 10.　　　　　(value)from it. ‎ 答案与解析 ‎【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文。一位著名科学家和大家分享了他成功的一个小故事:小时候,有一次他把牛奶洒在了地板上。母亲非但没有批评他,反而让他玩了一会儿。通过这次经历,科学家明白了一个道理:犯错其实是学习新东西的机会。即使实验“不成功”,我们通常也能从中学到一些有价值的东西。‎ ‎1.was asked　考查时态和语态。句意:当他被问到为什么他能够成功的时候,他给出了答案。主语he和ask之间是被动关系,该句应用被动语态。且根据主句中的gave可知,该句应用一般过去时态。故填was asked。‎ ‎2.his　考查代词。根据下文他的讲述内容可知,他谈论的是自己的妈妈对自己的影响。且该空修饰名词mother,应用形容词性物主代词。故填his。‎ ‎3.frightened　考查形容词。句意:我很害怕,我不知道该做些什么。get是系动词,后面接形容词作表语,且此处表示人的情绪,应用frightened。故填frightened。‎ ‎4.punishing　考查动词-ing形式。该空作介词of的宾语,应用动词-ing形式,故填punishing。‎ ‎5.successfully　考查副词。句意:刚才我们没能成功地用两只小手拎起一个大牛奶瓶。该空修饰动词carry,应用副词。故填successfully。‎ ‎6.hands　考查名词。空前有two修饰,应用名词复数。故填hands。‎ ‎7.with　考查介词。句意:我们到院子里去,把瓶子装满水,看看你能不能想个办法把它搬过来。该题考查固定搭配fill sth with sth,意为“用……装满……”,故填介词with。‎ ‎8.knew　考查时态。句意:这位著名的科学家接着说,就在那一刻,他知道他不需要害怕犯错,错误其实是学习新东西的机会。该空在句中作谓语,且根据上下文可知,这是发生在过去的事情,应用一般过去时态。故填knew。‎ ‎9.which/that　考查定语从句。“　9　 were actually opportunities for learning something new”是定语从句,修饰mistakes,引导词在从句中作主语,指物,应用关系代词which/that引导该从句。故填which/that。 ‎ ‎10.valuable　考查形容词。句意:我们通常从中学到一些有价值的东西。该空修饰不定代词,应用形容词,故填valuable。‎
