题目内容

It took me a long time before I was able to fully appreciate what they __ for me.

A.
had done
B.
did
C.
would do
D.
were doing

A
试题分析：句意：我花费了很长的时间才能够完全领会他们为我所做的。句中was able to 都发生在过去的时间，而根据句意他们为我所做的，应该已经做完了，发生在took这个动作之前，即过去的过去，故选A
考点：时态
点评：动词的时态是学习英语过程中非常重要的知识。而很多的题目，句中并没有像本题一样有明确的时间，很多要通过上下文的判断得知。过去完成时表示动作发生在过去的过去，本题不难，平时加强记忆，理解即可。

While I was in 9th grade, I built a circuit (电路装置) for the traffic system of our city. After getting the first prize. I got this valuable advice from my father; “Do whatever interests you, and don’t let the work challenge you, make sure you are challenging that work.”

I have always preferred the projects which are challenging and related to real life problems. I clearly remember building a shipping program several years ago. I divided the whole project into several small sections. When I understood it clearly, used my brainstorming skill on it, and gave some basic ideas. Then I asked my professor for help before jumping into coding (编码). At first, I did not know how to ask questions correctly and always asked the question “How do I do it?” As I kept working and discussed with my professor, I became more comfortable and those “how ”questions soon turned into “what if I do this and that” types of questions.

It took me four days to write the code. The desire to solve the problem kept me sleepless all nights brainstorming in even greater details. Every time I saw my program running smoothly, I exploded with joy. I still remember the last day of my work. I was getting some problem and didn’t know what to do. At that moment, a man came in to clean. He has headphones, and he was dancing while cleaning the room. Seeing this, I burst out laughing. That moment calmed me. I regained energy and interest and started to work again, and soon I fixed the problem.

My success in the project proved that breaking up a large problem into small parts could help find a possible solution. Discussing the problem with others was also very beneficial. Now I have gained the confidence to attempt any kind of project.

According to the passage, the writer was interested in .

A．developing traffic systems B．doing challenging projects

C．winning great prizes D．writing different codes

The writer asked the question “how do I do it” at first because .

A．he had no clear idea about his program B．he was too shy to express himself

C．he wanted to be understood easily D．he preferred this kind of question

We learn from the passage that the writer’s shipping program .

A．would benefit people a lot B．was done together with others

C．was difficult and needed patience D．cost much money and energy

What would be the best title of the passage?

A．Do It Yourself B．No Pains, No Gains

C．Learning with interest D．Practice Makes Perfect

There are going to be moments in life when you must make very important decisions. You will find many people  36  to offer you advice if you ask for it (and even if you don’t), but always remember that the life you  37  is yours and nobody else’s. It’s important to decide for yourself what’s important to you and what you want before you   38   others. Because while there will be times  39  outside advice proves wise, there will be at least as many times when it proves completely  40 . The only way to really evaluate other folks’ advice is to first learn everything that you can about whatever challenge you are  41 . Once you’ve done that, in most cases you should be able to make a wise decision  42   anyway.
You were   43   with the ability to decide what is and what isn’t in your best interest. Most of the time, you will make the right decision and  44  the appropriate actions, and in thinking for yourself, you will become far more successful than if you had gone
against your own   45 .
Early on in my investment career, I made the mistake of  46  a few important business decisions on colleagues’ opinions instead of conducting the   47   necessary to make a wise decision. It wasn’t due to   48   on my part; no one could ever accuse me of that. But, being   49  to Wall Street, I intended to assume that my more senior  50  knew more than I did, and so I  51  too much significance to their opinions.
You know what happened? Each of those investments ended in  52 . Eventually I stopped allowing myself to be influenced by  53  and began doing the work myself and making my own decisions. It took me until I was almost 30 years old to  54   this—it’s never too late for a person to change his approach both to   55  and to life.

Some years ago when I was in my first year in college, I heard Salome Bey sing for the first time. The moment was exciting. Salome’s   【小题1】 filled the room and brought the theater to life. I was so   【小题2】  that I decided to write an article about her.
I   【小题3】  Salome Bey, telling her I was from Essence magazine, and that I wanted to meet her to talk about her career. She   【小题4】  and told me to come to her studio next Tuesday. When I hung up, I was scared out of my mind. I   【小题5】  I was lying. I was not a writer at all and hadn’t even written a grocery list.
I interviewed Salome Bey the next Tuesday. I sat there   【小题6】 , taking notes and asking questions that all began with, “Can you tell me…” I soon realized that   【小题7】  Salome Bey was one thing, but writing a story for a national magazine was just impossible. The   【小题8】  was almost unbearable. I struggled for days   【小题9】  draft after draft. Finally I put my manuscript (手稿) into a large envelope and dropped it into a mailbox.
It didn’t take long. My manuscript   【小题10】 . How stupid of me! I thought. How could I   【小题11】  in a world of professional writers? Knowing I couldn’t   【小题12】  the rejection letter, I threw the unopened envelope into a drawer.
Five years later, I was moving to California. While   【小题13】  my apartment, I came across the unopened envelope. This time I opened it and read the editor’s letter in   【小题14】 :
Ms. Profit,
Your story on Salome Bey is fantastic. Yet we need some more relevant materials. Please   【小题15】  those and return the article immediately. We would like to   【小题16】  your story soon.
Shocked, it took me a long time to   【小题17】 . Fear of rejection cost me dearly. I lost at least five hundred dollars and the chance of having my article appear in a major magazine. More importantly, I lost years of   【小题18】  writing. Today, I have become a full-time writer.   【小题19】  this experience, I’ve learned a very important lesson: You can’t   【小题20】  to doubt yourself.
