题目内容
9.It is very common for you to find yourself in an unfamiliar situation.(36)C Yes,everyone tells you to stand on your own two feet and take responsibility for your action,but if you haven't experienced a situation before,how can you know what to do?We usually try our best to do everything on our own and not to rely on others,but at certain times calling for help is the best way forward.You can picture the scene of the man-it is usually a man-driving blindly around an unfamiliar town looking for an address he doesn't know.(37)E And he could certainly get to his appointment on time.It is obvious to everybody in such a case that asking for help is not a sign of weakness,but rather the sensible thing to do.(38)D For example,you are looking for a new job and need to write your resume (简历).If your pride prevents you from getting help and you just do the writing yourself,it may well cost the opportunity you are seeking.Similarly,when you just started a new job,you often don't want to admit that you haven't got the knowledge to finish a particular task,so you keep going and eventually make things worse than they were.This may lead to a diminishing (贬低) of you in the eyes of the boss.(39)B
Now you can see that asking for help is not a sign of weakness but is the sensible and mature thing to do.(40)G Making your life easier by asking for and using knowledgeable help is not a sign of weakness,but is actually quite a clever thing to do.
A.You can accustom yourself to asking for help sooner or later.
B.What's worse,you are most likely to lose the new job.
C.Actually speaking,asking for help is not a sign of weakness.
D.There are times when you know you don't have the relevant experience.
E.If only he would stop and ask for directions he could save lots of time.
F.However,many people tend to make mistakes over and over when help is available.
G.You will also recognize expert help would save your time,energy and money.
分析 本文讲述了,在人们遇到不熟悉的情况时可以适当地寻求他人的帮助.告诉我们寻求帮助不是软弱的表现,而是明智和成熟的事情.恰当的寻求他人的帮助可以使你的生活更容易得到知识的帮助.
解答 36.答案C.从此段后文"everyone tells you to stand on your own two feet and take responsibility for your action"可知,在人遇到不熟悉的事情的时候,有人帮助了他,这是在寻求帮助,而"yes"也表明作者对这种做法并不否认,故选C.
37.答案E.后文"he could certainly get to his appointment on time"表明,这个不认识路的司机能准时赶赴自己的约会,可推测这位司机肯定是通过某种方法节省了自己找路的时间,又因全文在讨论寻求帮助的问题,故选E.
38.答案D.后文中"you are looking for a new job"可见举出的例子是在经历新事物,通读选项大意,B项虽然是关于工作方面的,但是很明显是个总结.只有D项更好的衔接.故选D.
39.答案B.此空白处的前文是举出了一个找工作的例子,通读选项大意,只有B项是关于工作方面的内容,且能更好的反映出,找工作时迷茫没有寻求帮助后的后果.故选B.
40.答案G.前文"you can see that asking for help is not a sign of weakness but is the sensible and mature thing to do"提到,寻求人帮助是件成熟,明智的一件事.后文又提到"Making your life easier by asking for and using knowledgeable help is not a sign of weakness",由此可推测,空白处也应该是接受他人帮助时所得到的益处.故选G.
