试题分析：本文的主要内容是：“我”不顾妈妈的顾虑，独自一人来到奥克兰学习，希望找到一份可以养活自己的工作，却屡遭失败。一位陌生人却给了“我”很大的帮助，最终让“我”找到了一份满意的工作。
小题1: B根据上文提示，妈妈对“我”去奥克兰有很多顾虑，而“我”忽视这些“顾虑”，于2010年7月去了奥克兰。concerns在此表示“顾虑”。
小题2: D 根据下文提示，我到那里不久，Even if 即使 Every time 无论何时 Now that 既然 Soon after 不久之后。
小题3:C 考查介词。表示“为我的生活开销”，故用介词for。
小题4: A 根据I spent several weeks going door-­to-­door for a job可知，我决定独立去找工作，故选on my own 独立。
小题5: D　从but可以看出，尽管作者挨家挨户地找工作，但是没有得到回复。故用表示否定的词little。
小题6:C　一天下午，作者走进一座大楼去问是否有工作机会，表示“是否”，用whether。
小题7: D　那里的人建议“我”不要用原来的那种方式找工作。in that manner表示“用那种方式”，故D项为正确答案。
小题8: C　正当我准备离开，故选C，离开。
小题9: D　根据下文Nearly ten minutes later，he returned，可知这里想说他让我在门口等一会儿。for a while 暂时。
小题10:A　十分钟后他回来了，然后带着“我”去了Royal Oak找工作。故选returned。
小题11: C　本句涉及文章的主旨，“我”一次又一次的失败后，他仍然鼓励“我”要有积极的态度。stay positive表示“保持乐观”。
小题12:B　他带“我”去Royal Oak就是去找工作的，所以应该用search for，表示“寻找，搜寻”。pick out“挑选，认出”； take on“呈现，承担”；give up“放弃”。
小题13:B　一个素不相识的陌生人，主动带“我”去找工作，虽然“我”有些惊讶，但是对他还是有一个很好的印象。故选good。have a good feeling about sb.表示“对某人有很好的印象”。
小题14:C　从下文提到的他在他合伙人的办公室里为“我”复印了15份简历，可以看出“我”已经把简历用光了。make use of“利用”；take care of“照顾”；run out of“用光”；become tired of“对……厌倦”。故选C。
小题15:A　因为在去Royal Oak的路上“我”的简历用完了，所以他在他合伙人的办公室停下为“我”复印简历，故选A。
小题16:B　因为“我”之前有简历，他又给“我”复印了15份，可以说是15 more copies。
小题17:D　他除了带“我”去Royal Oak找工作，为“我”复印简历，还就着装和言语表达给了“我”一些建议，故选suggestions。
小题18:D　根据上下文，有素不相识的人给“我”提供了很大的帮助，所以“我”回家时情绪应该是很满意的(satisfied)，而不应该是孤独的(lonely)、有趣的(funny)或是失望的(disappointed)。
小题19:A　根据下文，我接到一个给我提供工作的电话，故选A，call电话。
小题20:C　当你需要这个世界的时候，世界就会归还给你。give back表示“归还”，为正确答案。
点评：答题前一定要读懂全文，弄清文章要表达的思想，注意前后段落之间的关系。答题中，一定要认真分析，注意选项与上下文的关系，与前后单词的关系。对于一时没有太大的把握的题可以放到最后再来完成，因为有时答案可以从下文内容体现出来。答完后再通读一篇文章，看看所选选项能不能是语句通顺，语意连贯。

Last year, I lost my best friend in high school. It seemed that everyone else’s life could just continue on in its  36  way, but mine couldn't.

In the evening I returned home from school  39  completely defeated. All I wanted to do was  40  into bed and wallow(沉迷于)in my own self-pity. I pulled back the covers on my bed and  41  a pile of cards left by my dad. Each card included a(n)  42  that it was to be opened on a  43  night that week.
I made it through that week  44  my father. Each card  45  to say just what I needed to hear. Tuesday’s card said, “The past is painful to think about and the  46  is impossible to imagine. Don't try. Just take it one minute at a time.” On Wednesday my mood  47  when I read, “What you are feeling now is  48  and normal. It still feels very bad, but it is part of the healing  49 .” Friday’s card contained a poem he wrote. The last lines made me smile through my tears. “Whatever special  50  you face along life’s way, may you  51  that you will find the best in every day.” I was instructed to open the last card  52  the party I went to on Saturday night. In it he wisely reminded me to  53 . “The world isn't so bad after a good laugh. The more you laugh, the more you heal.” Each card was signed, “Love, Dad.”
My world once collapsed (fell down) but I  54  the difficult breakup eventually. It owed to my dad, who made his  55  known when he couldn't be present.

My father never wanted his children to know what he did for a living．Dad worked in Plant C．Lying beside lake Erie, it saw him in at sunrise and out at nightfall．Sometimes my mother would take my siblings （兄弟姐妹） and me to the public beach in our hometown of Ashtabula． she'd gather us round and point to the smokestacks, coughing clouds into the sky．
"Wave to daddy!" she'd shout. Four little hands would shoot into the air．I never knew what Dad did in Plant C, but during 34 years of hard work, he had surgery （手术） on his shoulder and hand．At 48, he had his first heart attack．He retired in 1993, right after the last kid graduated from college．But the damage was done．A few years later, the next heart attack killed him．
I saw my dad in Plant C only once, when I took dinner to him．That night, I looked at my father, covered in sweat and coal, and for the first time I knew why he was so often angry for no reason．
Recently my father' s friend, Toby Workman, walked me there．I knew my father never wanted me to see it．At every station, he described the job and the danger．It was like listening to a foreign language．I walked past many DANGER signs．Toby put his hand on my shoulder．"look," he said, "you need to understand something．Your dad was a maintenance mechanic．He worked the most dangerous job．If something broke, he fixed it．"
A few days later, my daughter graduated from college．I gave her the hard hat Toby handed to me as I left, and this notes: " Whenever you feel something difficult, put this on, look in the mirror, and remember your roots．"

Curious, he shouts: : “Who are you?” He receives the answer:” “Who are you?” And then he screams to the mountain: “I admire you!” The voice answers: “I admire you!”
Angered at the response, he screams: “Coward (one without courage)!” He receives the answer: “Coward!”
He looks to his father and asks: “What's going on?” The father smiles and says: “My son, pay attention.”
Again the man screams at the top of his voice: “You are a champion!” The voice answers: “You are a champion!”
The boy is surprised, but does not understand. Then the father explains: “People call this ECHO (回音) , but really this is LIFE. It gives you back everything you say or do. Our life is simply a reflection of our actions. If you want more love in the world, create more love in your heart. If you want more competence in your team, improve your competence.”
