分析 跟大家分享一个令人愉快的真理:四月的雨带来五月的花.这一真理预示了光明来自黑暗,刚强源于脆弱.如果你相信的话,生命就来源于死亡.世上的农民都知道季节的重要性和永恒性.他们知道,在哪个季节播种,在哪个季节收获,万事都要在合适的时间去完成.
尽管外面的瓢泼大雨阻止了一切劳作,但农民依旧微笑着.因为他知道,雨水提供了作物生长必备的滋养.四月的大雨如注,带来了五月的繁花似锦.
这个古老的真理同样给生命中饱经沧桑的人以暗示,与某人的关系破裂会为你打开与另一人发展出新关系的门,工作的丢失会为你带来更好的工作;一个梦想的破灭会带来更加美好的将来;请记住,黑暗也许会持续一整夜,但它永远无法战胜清晨的阳光,可知当你处在悲伤的季节中,不要沮丧,因为快乐的季节也许就在转角处.
解答 1:由下文 The rains in the month of April the beautiful flowers in the month of May 可知"四月的雨会带来五月的鲜花",showers 有"阵雨"之意,可代替 rains.wind 意为"风",labor 意为"劳动力",seed 意为"种子",均不符合文意.故正确答案为C.
2:根据上文,"四月的阵雨会带来五月的鲜花","光明会从黑暗中挣脱而出",均暗示不好的事物孕育着美好,此处"优势(strength)诞生于弱点(weakness)"符合逻辑.sadness 虽属于不好的方面,但是不能与 strength 形成对应关系,不符合上下文逻辑.happiness 意为"快乐,幸福",calmness 意为"镇定,平静",均不符合文意.故正确答案为A.
3:结合上文所述的是积极向上的观点,可知一个人若敢于相信这个事实,他就会在进行所计划的事情时成功(succeed).succeed in (doing) sth."成功做某事",符合题意.fail in 意为"失败",believe in 意为"相信",result in 意为"导致",均不符合文意.故正确答案为B.
4:结合下文 everything must be done in its own time 可知"(农民们知道)所有的事情都要在各自的时间来做",意即"世界上所有的农民都知道四季的重要性(importance)".change 意为"变化",difference 意为"不同",choice 意为"选择",均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
5:结合句意,"他们知道有种植的季节,有收获(harvest)的季节".harvest 与 plant 形成对照,符合题意.rest 意为"休息;静止",sow 意为"播种"与 plant 重复,gather 意为"收集",均不符合文意.故正确答案为B.
6:结合上下文,大雨倾盆(the rain pours down)与 stopping all activities 是因果关系,根据常识,大雨会阻止所有的户外(outdoor)活动.usual 意为"通常的",normal 意为"正常的",favorite 意为"最喜爱的",均不符合文意.故正确答案为C.
7:结合上下文可知,大雨倾盆,农民却笑了(smile),说明他们以乐观的心态看待这场大雨,lift their faces to the heavens 意为"面朝天空"与 smile 形成顺承关系,符合题意.hand 意为"手",eyebrow 意为"眉毛",arm 意为"手臂",均不符合文意.故正确答案为A.
8:结合前文 Despite the inconvenience 可知尽管大雨带来很多的不方便,但农民知道它给作物提供(provides)生长所需的营养.make 意为"做;制造",take 意为"拿,取;耗费",均不合文意.produce 意为"生产",大雨可以提供营养物质,但大雨不能直接生产营养物质,D项错误.故正确答案为B.
9:结合上文,它告诉"我们"的不止这些,暗示下文继续阐述它所带给"我们"的东西,对于所有经历悲剧者来说它是希望的讯息,高兴(joy).courage (勇气),hope (希望),decision(决心)",均不符合文意.故正确答案为C.
10:结合上文,它给所有经历悲剧者带去希望的讯息,暗示悲剧过后会有希望,与某人的关系破裂会为你打开(open up)与另一人发展出新关系的门.hold up 意为"支撑,举起",set up 意为"建立",make up 意为"弥补",均不符合文意,故正确答案为B.
11:结合上文的逻辑关系,与某人的关系破裂会为你打开与另一人发展出新关系的门,在这里丢了(lost)工作,会为你提供在别处觅得更好工作的机会.good job 意为"好工作",part-time job 意为"兼职",permanent job 意为"稳定的工作",均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
12:结合上文,"与某人的关系破裂会为你打开与另一人发展出新关系的门","在这里丢了工作,会为你提供在别处觅得更好工作的机会","破碎的(broken)梦想可以变成美好未来的基础"三句为并列关系,句子内部的逻辑性相同,故应为"破碎的"梦想.wonderful 意为"美好的",wild 意为"狂热的;野生的",pleasant 意为"令人愉快的",均不符合文意.故正确答案为C.
13:Suppose"假定;猜想";Imagine"设想";Mind"介意";Remember"记住".
结合上下文,作者想要人们记住(remember)这个道理,故正确答案为A.
14:结合上文,可知"黑暗也许会持续一整夜,但它永远无法战胜清晨的阳光(light)".peace 意为"和平;安宁",arrival 意为"到来",战胜的对象不能是"到来",darkness 意为"黑暗",均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
15:结合下文 a season of joy 可知当你处在悲伤的季节(season)中,不要沮丧,因为快乐的季节也许就在转角处.a season of joy 与 a season of sorrow 前后对应.sense 意为"感觉;观念",situation 意为"处境",mood 意为"情绪",均不符合文意.故正确答案为B.
