【解析】1从下文可以得知Perry在想使鲨鱼游到海里,他好涉水到岸上去。

2他就能在鲨鱼看到之前游上岸。“before+从句表示时间。

3根据上句他看到鲨鱼在翻滚玩耍可知,鲨鱼现在已不再饥饿。此题考查名词辨析,hunger“饥饿

4根据常识,鲨鱼可以闻到血腥味,故填smell

5Perry将刀子割进肉里以便流出一些血,排除AB两项;meat为动物的肉的总称,Cflesh可以指人的肉,故选C项。

6血流得足够多时,Perry止血。

7Jerry把染了血的衬衫放到水里,用绳子拉着。pull“拉着”;wrap“捆绑”;connect 连接”;catch 抓住

8race表示鲨鱼闻到血腥味后行动之快。据下一句中raced也可知选择B项。

10他扔下衬衫,返回海边。

11Perry游了一半,“这时转过身来。

13后有鲨鱼,Perry当然竭力向前游。forward“向前backward“向后”;upward“向上”;downward“向下

14Perry露出头来呼吸。

15在此指Perry用手碰到岸,然后撑着使自己爬上石头,而不是用脚蹬着石头。with his fingers“用手指

16根据常识可知鲨鱼因血腥味和追逐而变得异常兴奋。excited 远比interested的语气重得多;frightened“受惊的,受恐吓的”;disappointed 失望的

17这条鲨鱼因用力过猛而撞到石头上。由上文可知,鲨鱼紧追Perry , Perry爬上岸上的礁石,鲨鱼紧随其后,自然撞上了礁石。

18这条鲨鱼只是受伤,所以是被其他鲨鱼活吃了。首先排除C项。alive“活着的,在此处作伴随状语,表示被吃的时候的状态是活的;lively“活泼的,活跃的,栩栩如生的”;friendly“友好的

19struggle on one's feet 是固定搭配,挣扎着站起来

20尽管已不再饥饿,鲨鱼仍在吃着。as though 好像,仿佛”;even though“即使”;as soon as“—…………"as long as“只要

【题目】Just 25 years ago, the top three career hopes for young people in Britain were teacher, banker and doctor. Now, they want to be sports stars, pop stars and actors, according to a survey by the Guardian newspaper.

Rachel, a character in the popular TV show Glee, may be said to speak for British teenagers. “Nowadays being nobody is worse than being poor.” He said.

Emma Brockes, a reporter with the Guardian, believes it is the bad influence of celebrity(名人) culture that is to blame.When children wanted to be doctor, it wasnt because they were really more interested in the functions of human organs than they are now; you go where the respect is.”She wrote.

It could explain why there has been such an increase in levels of anxiety and depression. Dr Carlo Stranger, of Tel Aviv University, studied the sense of self for his new book The Fear of Insignificance: Searching for Meaning in the 21st Century. He told the Daily Mail that young people now are affected by the close connection to the global entertainment network, which has turned ranking and rating people according to wealth and celebrity into an obsession(痴迷).

As humans, we naturally measure ourselves to those around us, but now we live in a global village. We are comparing ourselves with the most ‘important’ people in the world and finding ourselves wanting…” he said. Today, even high achievers constantly fear that they are insignificant when they compare themselves to success stories in the media.

The way out? Simply stop measuring your achievement through a fantasy of wealth and celebrity. Dr Strenger said that it is a process called “active self-acceptance through a constant search for self-knowledge through life.”

The fear of insignificance can only be overcome through strong individual and cultural identity over and above measurable achievement,” he said.
