解析试题分析: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。
