题目内容
1.阅读下面的短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.In our discussion with people on how education can help them succeed in life,a woman remembered the first meeting of an introductory(36)science course about 20years ago.The professor (37)marched into the lecture hall,placed upon his desk a large jar filled with dried beans(豆),and invited the students to(38)guess how many beans the jar contained.After(39)listening to shouts of wildly wrong guesses the professor smiled a thin,dry smile,announced the(40)correct answer,and went on saying,"You have just(41)learned an important lesson about science.That is:Never(42)trust your own senses."Twenty years later,the (43)woman could guess what the professor had in mind.He(44)saw himself,perhaps,as inviting his students to start an exciting (45)voyageinto an unknown world Invisible(无形的)to the(46)eye,which can be discovered only through scientific(47)methods.But the seventeen-year-old girl could not accept or even(48)hear the invitation.She was just(49)beginning to understand the world.And she (50)believed that her firsthand experience could be the(51)truth.The professor,however,said that it was(52)wrong.he was taking away her only (53)tool for knowing and was providing her with no substitute."I remember feeling small and(54)frightened,"the women says,"and I did the only thing I could do.I(55)dropped the course that afternoon,and I haven't gone near science since."

分析 本文是一篇记叙文.主要讲述了一位女士对大约20年前第一次接触自然科学课程的经历.在那堂课上,教授告诉学生不要相信自己的感官--教授让学生猜有多少豆子,而几乎没有学生能够猜到.这深深地刺痛了当年只有17岁的她,因为她认为自己正开始了解世界,感官是她唯一依赖的工具,而教授却把它拿走了.这使她很害怕,当天下午就放弃了这门课程,至今也没再走近科学.
解答 36.C.考查名词辨析.根据本段上文出现了名词education,以及根据下文可知,这位女士记起的是一堂自然科学课程.故选C.
37.D 考查动词词组辨析.根据语境可知,此处指教授走进演讲大厅.search for"寻找";look at"看";get through"完成,打通电话";march into"(大步)走进".故选D.
38.B 考查动词辨析.根据下一句中的After 39 shouts of wildly wrong guesses可知,此处指教授让学生猜有多少豆子.故选B.
39 D 考查动词辨析.根据句子结构可以看出,第39个空中的动作应是教授发出的.句意:听了学生的瞎猜之后,教授露出一个干瘪的笑.故选D.
40 C 考查形容词辨析.根据前面的wildlywrong guesses可知,此处指教授给出正确的答案.故选C.
41 A 考查动词辨析.learn animportant lesson表示"学到很重要的一堂课". 根据该动作是学生对课程做出的,那么自然是在学习课程.故选A.
42 B 考查动词辨析.根据这个故事可知,教授让学生不要相信自己的感官.故选B.
43.D 考查名词辨析.此处的the woman就是指第一段中的a woman.根据下文也可推断出,因为她提到20年前自己是一个17岁的女生.故选D.
44.C 考查动词辨析.根据句意可知,他可能把自己看作是在邀请学生去探索未知世界.describe…as…"把…描述为";respect…as…"把…尊为";see…as…"把…看作";serve as"充当".故选C.
45.A 考查名词辨析.学生对未知世界开启的是一次航程,而非"运动"、"改变"亦或者"匆忙冲进".此处应指"邀请学生开始令人激动的对未知世界的探索之旅".voyage航行.故选A.
46.B 考查名词辨析.根据"anunknown world invisible to the eye"可知,指眼睛看不到的未知的世界.对于什么而言是无形的,形状自然是眼睛看到的.故选B.
47.D 考查名词辨析.根据肉眼无法识别的无形未知世界的绝不是"感觉"或者"精神",此处指能通过科学的方法去发现眼睛看不到的未知的世界(而不是通过感官).故选D.
48.A 考查动词辨析.even是一个强烈的递进关系词.根据句意可知,但是这个17岁的女生不愿意接受邀请或者甚至听到这样的邀请.故选A.
49.B 考查动词辨析.根据语境可知,此处指她自己正开始了解世界.我们知道,女孩十七岁,正是刚开始认识世界的年纪.故选B.
50 A 考查动词辨析.根据与之相关的是后句的内容:"她的第一感觉会是正确的"可知,对这件事情她没有"证明"或者"解释",自然可排除C、D,无关选项.(因为她自己正开始了解世界)所以她相信直接得到的经验就是真实的.故选A.
51.D 考查名词辨析.女孩认为第一感觉是正确的.growth成长 strength力量faith信念.根据第50个空的解析可知,此处表示"事实真相".故选D.
52.C 考查形容词辨析.根据上一段可知,教授认为不要相信感官,因为感官带来的答案是错误的.故选C.
53.B 考查名词辨析.根据句意可知,为了知道未知世界,我手中唯一的是工具.其他选项不合理.她认为教授把她依赖的唯一的工具即感官拿走了.故选B.
54. C 考查形容词辨析.and提示文章此处是并列关系,而与感觉渺小并列的是感觉害怕,cruel的含义是"残忍的",语义自然不合适,排除.根据女士的描述可知,她当时认为自己很渺小,很害怕.故选C.
55.A 考查动词辨析.根据语境可知,被教授伤害后,我对这个科目能做的动作显然不是"开始学习"或者"通过",于是排除B、C;而missed的含义是"失去",无关选项;drop在此表示"丢弃,中断,停止".故选A.

All this (38)changed after I joined a sports team.It began when a teacher suggested.I try out for the basketball team.At first I thought it was a crazy(39)idea because I didn't have a good sense of balance nor did I have the(40)ability to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me.But for the teacher who kept insisting on my"(41)going for it",I wouldn't have decided to give it a try.
Getting up the courage to go to the tryouts was only the (42)half of it.When I first startedattending(43)attending the practice sessions.I didn't even know the rules of the game much (44)less what I was doing.Sometimes I'd get (45)confused and take a shot at the wrong direction-which made me feel really stupid.(46)Fortunately.I wasn't the only one"new"at the game,so I decided tofocus(47)focus on learning the game,do my best at each practice session,and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn't (48)know"just yet".
I practiced and practiced.Soon I knew the (49)rules and the"moves"Being part of a team was fun and motivating.Very soon the competitive (50)part in me was winning over my lack of confidence.With time,I learned how to play and made friends in the (51)process-friends who respected my efforts to work hard and be a team player.I never had so much fun!
With my (52)improved self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates.I have gone from"(53)hiding"in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself.(54)to raising my hand-even when I sometimes wasn't 100percent (55)sure I had the right answer.Now I have more self-confidence in myself.
