The fortunate people in the world,the only really fortunate people in the world in my mind,are those whose work is also their pleasure.The class is not a large one,not nearly so large as it is often (41)B to be,and authors are perhaps one of the most important elements in its composition.They enjoy in this (42)D at least a real harmony of life.To my mind,to be able to make your work your pleasure is the one class distinction in the world worth striving for; and I do not (43)G that others tend to envy those happy human beings who find their livelihood in the gay effusions (流露) of their fancy,to whom every hour of labor is an hour of(44)K and even a holiday is almost deprivation (丧失).Whether a man writes well or ill,has much to say or little,if he cares about writing at all,he will appreciate the pleasures of composition.
To sit at the table on a sunny morning,with four clear hours of uninterruptible(45)A     plenty of nice white paper and a pen is true happiness.With the complete absorption of the mind upon a(n)(46)I occupation,what more is there than that to desire?What does it matter what happens outside?The House of Commons may do what it likes,and so may the House of Lords.The bottom may be(47)J clean out of the American market.The heathen (异教徒) may show(48)E anger in every part of the globe.Never mind,for four hours,at any rate,we will(49)H ourselves from a common,ill-governed,and (50)F world.

分析 在作者心目中,世界上真正幸运的人是他们的工作也是他们的乐趣.

解答 41.B考查被动语态,首先根据前面"it is often…"以及后面"to be",能判断出此空应该填入一个动词,并且是被动语态.只有B和J有被动语态的样子,根据句意选B.
42.D考查固定短语,词组 in this respect 在这方面
43.G考查动词词义辨析,根据空格后面可以推测出空格内应是动词原型,而且是能够引导宾语从句的动词,根据意思"我并不好奇"因此填入wonder.
44.K考查名词词义辨析 every hour of labor is an hour of…"根据前面every hour of labor可以判断出此空格应为一个成分相对应的名词;根据"envy those happy human beings who find their livelihood in the gay effusions (流露) of their fancy"不难发现此空应为呼应happy human beings的一个单词,因此选择enjoyment.
45.A考查名词词义辨析,根据前面形容词uninterruptible,可以判断出此空应该填入一个名词,因为显然uninterruptible是修饰一个名词的.根据句子的意思,填入security,表示四个小时的安全感.
46.I考查形容词词义辨析,根据前后单词,判断出此空填入形容词,修饰occupation.在EFI里面进行选择,根据后面句意what more is there than that to desire?What does it matter what happens outside?判断出此空表示合宜的,令人满意的工作,因此选择I.
47.J考查被动语态,根据空格前面的may be以及空格后的clean out of 可以判断出此空应该填入一个被动形式的动词,只有B和J有被动语态的样子,根据clean out of,可以判断出此处表示被踢出局的意思,选J.
 48.E考查形容词词义辨析,明显此空缺的是形容词,只有EFI是形容词,根据此处的意思,能够合理地修饰anger一次的只有violent,因此选择E.
49.H考查情态动词,此句为一般将来时,will 后面缺少动词,此空应填入一个动词,根据后面的from以及所罗列出的所有单词,可以联想到词组 withdraw A from B 把A从B那里撤回,收回.
 50.F考查形容词词义辨析,此空很明显需要一个形容词来修饰world,只有EFI是形容词,E和I都已经被占用并且根据前面两个形容词common,ill-governed,不难判断出and之后也要一个与之前两个词意思相类似的词,因此选择F.

点评 十一选十填空,解题时要抓住文章的脉络,一定要读懂全文,弄清文章要表达的思想,注意前后句之间的关系.答题中,一定要认真分析,注意词性,句型的分析,答完后再通读一遍文章,看看所填单词是不是语句通顺,语意连贯

4.British men are encouraged to cry.
There are certain things British men like to believe about themselves.The first is that one day they will again win the World Cup.They also believe they do not cry.Over the centuries,Britons are believed to have a"stiff upper lip".But is this true?
Yes,it is.A recent study arranged by Kleenex on how the British express their emotions reveals that 95 percent of them still containtheir emotions.
Moreover,while 72 percent think this is unhealthy,19 percent can't remember the last time they"let it out".As a result,Kleenex is launching the"Let It Out"campaign that encourages Brits to grab a tissue and have a good cry.
These days,however,the male Briton's attitude toward crying is changing.Though the majority still struggles to open up emotionally,a 2004 study by Oxford's Social Issues Research Center found that 77 percent of British men considered crying in public increasingly acceptable.Half of London males admitted crying in front of their mothers.Scotsmen are the least emotional,although they are the most likely to cry at weddings.
Peter Marsh,director of the center,said:"Crying can now indicate sensitivity rather than weakness.Like with David Beckham,crying because you're dropping off your boy at nursery isn't seen as weak."
Winston Churchill was said to be a frequent crier,shedding tears at seeing a survivor in an air raid shelter,and when he saw his wife after a long absence.
Psychologists say that while society has accepted that men can cry,there are limits.Ronald Bracey,a consulting psychologist,said:"If a man began to cry when he was having stitches(缝针)in hospital,he would be considered as a coward.Men still need to be seen as strong when it comes to physical pain."
67.What does the passage mainly deal with?D
A.Impression of British men.
B.British men's dream of the World Cup.
C.Advice on how to control emotions.
D.Different attitudes British men have towards crying.
68.Which of the following concerning the British men is NOT true according to the passage?C
A.They are supposed to easily control emotions over the centuries.
B.They are confident that they will again get successful in the World Cup.
C.About 50% of Britons admitted crying before their mothers.
D.Nowadays,the male Briton's attitude toward crying is changing.
69.The word"contain"in paragraph 3 meansB.
A.store         B.hold back          C.include          D.stir up
70.What does the author think of the British men's crying?C
A.They should cry if hurt.
B.They should keep firm not to cry to show they are not wimps.
C.They should be brave in face of physical pain and cry if necessary when facing other problems.
D.They should"let it out"whatever problems they meet with.

It's the customary bedtime practice every parent would feel fearful----being asked to read the same book for many times.But while the (41)C repetition might be boring for mum or dad,it is the best way for toddlers to learn new words,according to research.
The findings suggest parents are wasting money by spending a fortune on huge book collections in the hope they will inspire their little ones.Instead,a small selection of favourites such as The Very Hungry Caterpillar or The Gruffalo will(42)E far more.
Dr Jessica Horst,of the University of Sussex's WORD Lab devised an experiment to check how quickly three-year-olds could recognize and(43)B six new words.The children were visited three times in a week.One group heard the same story three times back-to-back each time and another was read three (44)F stories.All had the same amount of new words which appeared the same (45)A of times.
When researchers returned a week later,they found the children who heard the same story over and over had(46)Klearned 3.6of the new words.While those(47)G to a variety of stories remembered only 2.6.They also noted the‘repetition'group learned at a faster rate than those in the‘(48)J'group.
Dr Horst said:‘We are showing that less is more,to a point.And,(49)H,the more times you read to a child and the more books you have will help them.But you don't need to go crazy and buy every single Thomas the Tank Engine book.Reading the same books over and over again helps.'
Speaking of the(50)I studies,we have found one in three don't read to their children before putting them to bed.Yet 30minutes of one-on-one literacy sessions can improve reading age by nearly two years in less than five months.
11.The Oprah Winfrey Show added Chen Luyu to its list of famous co-hosts from around the world when the two talk show queens hooked up via satellite for the first time on Aug 26,2009."I was on Oprah's talk show because the world is focusing on China."says Chen,who was the first Asian host invited by Winfrey.
Chen took Winfrey and her US audience on a tour through her office,studio and dressing room as well as offering a special guided tour around Beijing's famous Houhai area and the capital's popular 798art district.Winfrey was surprised about Chen's most memorable interviews including HIV victims and lesbian couples.
"Chinese people have a wide understanding about Western countries,but it is not the other way around,which causes misunderstanding,"Chen says."I have interviewed more than 3000guests who come from various classes and working backgrounds.They tell their stories and my audience shows great respect."
Known as"China's Oprah",the 39-year-old TV personality decided to model her show,A Date With Luyu,on the Winfrey's popular show after visiting the US more than a decade ago."It is flattering to be called China's Oprah,which means people say‘you are really good',"she says,"I am curious and ask some tough questions.But I tend to be protective of my guests.If they don't want to answer those questions,that's fine."Over the past 10years of being a public face in a rapidly changing China,she has gone from interviewing celebrities(名流) to talking with people from all walks of life.
Her guests share their story with a live audience of 300and a viewing audience of more than 60million every day."It has become more than a show,"Chen says,"Chinese audience tend to be shy.I cannot expect my viewers to act like those on Oprah's show,who would shout and scream,"she says,"but Chinese audience can respond to the interviewees'stories and show me their smiles and tears."
Chen's daily chat show is on Phoenix satellite television station,the first foreign-funded station to be beamed into the mainland.Winfrey was surprised by Chen5s high ratings and expressed a desire to visit China and be a guest on Chen's talk show."The cooperation enables Western audiences to know more about China.And I think that Chinese talk shows can be as spirited as any other country's"Chen says.

The German Chancellor,Angela Merkel has been named TIME's 2015Person of the Year.She's led Germany since 2005and is (41)D her third time.
"TIME"has named a person of a year since 1927.The recipient is someone or some group that for better or worse is considered to have had a major (42)E on world events.It is decided by the editors of the (43)G magazine.Last year the title went to Ebola fighters and the year before that,Pope Francis.
TIME Magazine gave a number of reasons why it chose Merkel,from how she's handled Europe's economic crisis,to how she's responded to terrorist attacks in the region,to how she's (44)C the continent's ongoing refugee crisis.Her high (45)A rating in Germany has slipped recently because many Germans don't agree with her (46)F to that crisis.So,the reaction in her home country was (47)I.
Nancy Gibbs,the editor of TIME wrote that the Chancellor was awarded the title for"asking more of her country than most politicians would dare,for standing firm against tyranny."
She also praised Merkel,the first woman to be named the title for 29years,for her leadership during the refugee crisis."At a moment when much of the world is once more (48)K in a debate about the balance between safety and freedom,the Chancellor is asking a great deal of the German people,and by their example,the rest of us as well.She views refugees as victims to be (49)H rather than(50)B to be repelled…"
