分析 本文主要讲述作者写的书总是不能被出版很是泄气,但公园中不怕摔倒一直在跑的小男孩鼓励了他,决定不怕失败勇敢前行.

解答 61.becoming 考查动名词.of是介词,后接动词时用动名词形式.
62.it 考查代词.it做形式主语,真正的主语是动词不定式短语to get a book of mine published.
63.Though/Although  考查连词.根据句意:尽管我努力尝试但没有一本书出版.用连词Though/Although.
64.upsetting 考查现在分词.现在分词作表语主要表示主语的性质和特征.
65.was told 考查动词时态和语态.根据时间This morning和所给时态可知用过去时,句中I和动词tell是被动关系指"被告诉",要用一般过去时的被动语态.       
66.Feeling 考查现在分词.I与feel之间是主谓关系,用现在分词作状语.
67.with 考查介词.此处是"with+名词+介词短语"复合结构表示伴随,指母亲离他不远.
68.freedom  考查名词.此处由the和of限定用名词,指在草地上跑的自由.          
69.to run/running 考查非谓语动词.continue后加动词的-ing形式或不定式,表示"继续做某事",用to run/running.
70.suddenly 考查副词.realize是动词,用副词修饰.

14.A typical lion tamer(驯兽师)in people's mind is an entertainer holding a whip( 鞭) at a chair.The whip gets all of the attention,but it's mostly for show.In reality,it's the chair that does the important work.When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face,the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time.With its focus divided,the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next.When faced with so many options,the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the
man holding the chair.
How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion?How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g.lose weight,start a business,travel more)-only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?
This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information.The end result is that we feel like we can't focus or that we're focused on the wrong things,and so we take less action,make less progress,and stay the same when we could be improving.
It doesn't have to be that way.Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face,remember this:All you need to do is focus on one thing.You just need to get started.Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people.If you have somewhere you want to go,something you want to accomplish,someone you want to become…take immediate action.If you're clear about where you want to go,the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.

24.Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A
A.To trick the lion.
B.To show off his skills.
C.To get ready for a fight.
D.To entertain  the audience.
25.In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?B
A.They hold on to the wrong things.
B.They feel puzzled over choices.
C.They find it hard to make changes.
D.They have to do something for show
26.What is the author's attitude towards the expert mentioned in Paragraph3?D
A.Tolerant.
B.Supportive.
C.Respectful.
D.Doubtful.

Home from the Navy, I started school at Greenville College in my hometown of Illinois. I’d been out of high school for four years, but my high school headmaster, Mr. Gardner, invited me to a Valentine’s day dance party at school. The thought of seeing my former teachers was exciting. So I agreed.

When Friday came, I cleaned up, dressed up and drove to the high school gym. I chatted with my teachers and approached Mr. Gardner to thank him before leaving. Just then, the band started playing and a young girl stood up to sing. One look at and I was crazy—I had never seen such a beautiful girl!

I asked Mr. Gardner who she was, and he answered, “That’s Marilyn Riley, Cut Riley’s daughter.” I was shocked to say the least. They lived just around the corner from me. I walked across the gym floor to introduce myself, “Hi, I’m Jack Joseph.”

“I know who you are,” was her not-too-friendly response.

“Would you like to dance?” I asked. “No! I’m working,” she shot back.

“Can I call you next week for a movie date?” I asked. “No,” was her response.

For the next month I phoned, trying to set up a date. She always had the same answer: No. then one rainy afternoon in March as I was driving home after basketball practice, I saw Marilyn, walking with no umbrella, no raincoat, no hat. I pulled alongside her and asked if she needed a ride, half expecting her to say no. instead, she stepped over the roadside and sat down on the seat next to me. It was only a few blocks to her house, but after pulling into her driveway we talked for 45minutes. It was magic from then on.

9.My father's family is not a musical family.They are a family of words.My brother has my father's dark hair,his love of a good argument.I take after my mother.From her I inherited a curious nature,a sense of adventure,bright red hair.I did not,contrary to her hopes,inherit a talent for the piano.That fact was established beyond doubt after unsuccessful attempts to draw music from me.
The piano lessons began when I was four.My mother was convinced that I would be a child Mozart.She found the ideal teacher--Madame Oblenka,a strict Russian woman,whose pursed lips were enough to frighten a wild horse into submission.Madame Oblenka,who expected a little Mozart,was not very delighted to find a little girl banging her fists on the keys.
I tried to please her."Feel the music,"she urged.I"felt"it and winced  (退避) my ear--for what is more unpleasant than a series of wrong notes played continuously?She"felt"my music,too,which is why she always left with an angrier expression than when she came.
Once,when I was ten,I managed to record one of my own rehearsals (练习).In order to escape my practice sessions,I would close myself behind the door of the piano room,put on the tape recording,and read until the tape had finished.That method worked for a week,until my mother began to wonder why I always missed the same B-sharp.She knocked on the door,and,receiving no answer,came in to check on me and found that I had fallen asleep while the tape of my performance played on and on.
I was twelve when my parents finally acknowledged that my hidden talent was not about to emerge any time soon.My mother,refusing to admit defeat,told me to pick another instrument."Choose anything you want,Honey,"she said,assuming that freedom of choice would inspire devotion.I thought long and hard and chose the drums.My parents,sensitive to noise,would be less than overjoyed by a daily bombardment of playing.I imagined my father in his study,cotton wads in his ears.
I worked my way through several other instruments before my mother hit on another idea.Maybe I wasn't meant to be an instrumentalist.Realizing that drama might be more suited to my talents,Mom took me to a drama teacher.However,he put me backstage,painting scenery.Once I recovered from my sense of injury,I realized the wisdom of his choice.I loved the active,practical backstage world,and I discovered that I had a knack for constructing and painting.I loved the challenge of taking our scanty (贫乏) supplies and using them to make something beautiful.Imagining a scene and then seeing it emerge before me--this,to me,was close to magic.
I'm a sculptor now,and every day I experience afresh the joy of being fully absorbed in the act of artistic creation.It's a wonderful,blissful (乐而忘忧) feeling.I realize that my parents,in their misguided attempts to interest me in music,were trying to give me this feeling.And now I feel grateful.Perhaps they went about it in the wrong way,but their hearts were in the right place.
24.The underlined word"emerge"in the fifth paragraph can be replaced byD.
A.disappearB.failC.turnD.show
25.Which of the following best reveals the author's attitude towards piano practice?C
A.She tried to make the piano teacher pleased.
B.She repeated the same mistake in practicing.
C.She played the recording instead of practicing.
D.She recorded her performance for improvement.
26.The author's mother can be best described asA.
A.devoted and stubborn          
B.encouraging and independent
C.helpful and considerate         
D.hardworking and generous
27.We can learn from the passageA.
A.art should be treated as a joy rather than a burden
B.the ordinary backstage work can help one succeed
C.you can only get better at something if you practice
D.parents should encourage their children to create art.
