Grandma Moses was crazy about painting soon before she picked it up and worked hard at it. She painted careful and her works were nice. She first painted only to please oneself, and then began to sell her works with a little money. In 1993, a collector, Louis Caldor happen to see several of Grandma Moses’ work hanging in a shop. He liked them, buying them at once, and set out to look for less. Caldor held a show to introduce the works of Grandma Moses other artists. Grandma Moses, who was world-famous, was died on December 13, 1961, at the age of 101.

【答案】

【1】before改为after

【2】careful改为carefully

【3】oneself改为herself

【4】with改为for

【5】happen改为happened

【6】work改为works

【7】buying改为bought

【8】less改为more

【9】Moses后面加to

【10】删除was

【解析】

试题分析:

【1】before改为after 考查连词,句意:在Moses奶奶开始学习油画以后,她就像着魔了一样认真。根据句意可知Moses奶奶是在学习油画以后才很疯狂。所以使用after引导时间状语从句。

【2】careful改为carefully 考查副词。在英语中通常使用副词充当状语修饰动词。句意:她花得很认真,她的作品也很漂亮。本句中使用carefully修饰动词paint。

【3】oneself改为herself 考查反身代词。句意:开始的时候她画油画只是为了取悦自己,然后就开始出售自己的作品换一些钱。本句中herself表示强调。

【4】with改为for 考查介词。本句中介词for表示“交换”,指用作品换钱。

【5】happen改为happened 考查时态。本句中的时间状语in 1993,这是一个一般过去时的时间状语,所以谓语动词使用一般过去时。

【6】work改为works 考查名词。当work作为名词,意为“作品”的时候,常常使用复数叙述,当作为“工作”时,是一个不可数名词。很清楚本句是指她的个人作品,所以使用复数叙述。

【7】buying改为bought 考查谓语动词。句意:他很喜欢这些作品,立刻就买了下来,还开始寻找更多的她的作品。本句中三个动词like、buy和set是并列结构,因为本文叙述过去的事情,所以都使用一般过去时。

【8】less改为more 考查比较级。句意:他很喜欢这些作品,立刻就买了下来,还开始寻找更多的她的作品。本句中more表示more works。

【9】Moses后面加to 考查固定结构;短语introduce sth to sb把….介绍给某人;他立刻把Moses奶奶的作品介绍给其他的画家。

【10】删除was 考查动词。动词die死亡,该词没有被动语态。句意:全球闻名的Moses奶奶在1961年12月13日去世,享年101岁。

Dear Seth,

You’re only three years old, and at this point in your life you can’t read, much less understand what I’m going to try to tell you in this letter. But someday, when you’re ready, I hope you will find some wisdom and value in what I share with you.

Life can be cruel

【1】 They’ll tease you or try to hurt you because you’re different.

There’s not much you can do except learn to deal with them, and learn to choose friends who are kind to you and who make you feel good about yourself. When you find friends like this, treasure them, spend time with them and love them.

Be open to life anyway

Yes, you’ll find cruelty and suffering in your journey through life, but don’t let that close you to new things. Don’t step backwards from life, don’t hide yourself. 2

Life isn’t a competition

You will meet many people who will try to do better than you, in school , in college, at work. To them, life is a competition.

But here’s the secret: life isn’t a competition. 3 Learn to enjoy the journey and make it a journey of happiness, of constant learning, of continual improvement, of love.

Love,

Your Dad

FIVE WAYS TO KILL YOUR DREAMS

I dedicated the past two years to understanding how people achieve their dreams. When we think about the dreams we have, and the footprint we want to leave in the universe, it is striking to see how big of an overlap there is between the dreams that we have and projects that never happen. So I'm here to talk to you today about five ways how not to follow your dreams.

1______

You know the story, right? The tech guy built a mobile app and sold it very fast for a lot of money. You know, the story may seem real, but I bet it's incomplete. If you go investigate further, the guy has done 30 apps before and he has done a master's on the topic, a Ph.D. He has been working on the topic for 20 years. This is really interesting. I myself have a story in Brazil that people think is an overnight success. I come from a humble family, and two weeks before the deadline to apply to MIT, I started the application process. And, voila! I got in. People may think it's an overnight success, but that only worked because for the 17 years prior to that, I took life and education seriously. Your overnight success story is always a result of everything you've done in your life through that moment.

2______

Constantly, people want to help out, right? All sorts of people: your family, your friends, your business partners, they all have opinions on which path you should take: "And let me tell you, go through this pipe." But whenever you go inside, there are other ways you have to pick as well. And you need to make those decisions yourself. No one else has the perfect answers for your life. And you need to keep picking those decisions, right? The pipes are infinite and you're going to bump your head, and it's a part of the process.

3_____

So when your life is going great, you have put together a great team, and you have growing revenue, and everything is set — time to settle. When I launched my first book, I worked really, really hard to distribute it everywhere in Brazil. With that, over three million people downloaded it, over 50,000 people bought physical copies. When I wrote a sequel, some impact was guaranteed. Even if I did little, sales would be okay. But okay is never okay. When you're growing towards a peak, you need to work harder than ever and find yourself another peak. Maybe if I did little, a couple hundred thousand people would read it, and that's great already. But if I work harder than ever, I can bring this number up to millions. That's why I decided, with my new book, to go to every single state of Brazil. And I can already see a higher peak. There's no time to settle down.

4______

I constantly see people saying, "Yes, I had this great idea, but no investor had the vision to invest." "Oh, I created this great product, but the market is so bad, the sales didn't go well." Or, "I can't find good talent; my team is so below expectations." If you have dreams, it's your responsibility to make them happen. Yes, it may be hard to find talent. Yes, the market may be bad. But if no one invested in your idea, if no one bought your product, for sure, there is something there that is your fault. Definitely. You need to get your dreams and make them happen. And no one achieved their goals alone. But if you didn't make them happen, it's your fault and no one else's. Be responsible for your dreams.

5_____

Once I saw an ad, and it was a lot of friends, they were going up a mountain, it was a very high mountain, and it was a lot of work. You could see that they were sweating and this was tough. And they were going up, and they finally made it to the peak. Of course, they decided to celebrate, right? I'm going to celebrate, so, "Yes! We made it, we're at the top!" Two seconds later, one looks at the other and says, "Okay, let's go down." Life is never about the goals themselves. Life is about the journey. Yes, you should enjoy the goals themselves, but people think that you have dreams, and whenever you get to reaching one of those dreams, it's a magical place where happiness will be all around. But achieving a dream is a momentary sensation, and your life is not. The only way to really achieve all of your dreams is to fully enjoy every step of your journey. That's the best way.

【题目】I wish there would be a way to describe China in simple terms but that’s impossible. For the most part, Chinese people are friendly, easy-going and optimistic. They are curious and unusually patient and they are also the hardest-working people I have ever met.

In China, family is everything. In my English classes when the students were asked what they would do if they only had a few hours to live, most students told me how they would spend their last few hours with their families and parents. Many times the subjects in the classes center on families and friends. I teach many students a year, talking to them freely.

The cost of living here is very low compared with that of the US. The city of Xiang Fan I live in isn’t large and I live better. Non-imported(非出口的) foods are very cheap, so are clothing and articles of everyday use. The cost of public transportation is very low, too. Chinese value education. However, it is reported that many children can’t afford the expenses of schooling and are forced to leave school in some poor areas in China. But they organized Project Hope many years ago. It creates conditions for the poor children to go back to school. In my opinion, Project Hope is of great importance to the development of the rural education.

When we read news of China in the west, rarely, if ever, will we see anything mentioned of the positive changes China has gone through. While it is true that economic miracles have not reached many areas of China, but we also have the same problems.

When I am asked which country I consider better. China or the US, my answer has always been the same, “We are not worse or better than each other, we are only different.”

A.the westerners have got to know China well

B.China’s economic miracles have appeared everywhere

C.the education in rural areas is never cared about in China

D.the progress of China is seldom reported in the US
