15.People usually think of fishing as a warm-weather pastime.But some fishers say the activity is best when it is (61)freezing(freeze) outside.Those people are called ice fishermen.When it gets really cold,they are in their element.In parts of the northern United States and all over Canada,ice fishing is a big sport.People wait all year (62)for lakes and rivers in their cities to freeze.They drive trucks and snowmobiles on the ice,cut a hole into the water,and drop a lure.
Here is how it(63)works(work):
First,fishers drill a hole in the ice,drop a line into the water and wander around,(64)waiting(wait).Hopefully,a fish bites the hook at the end of the line.It is just like regular fishing,but it (65)is done(do) in winter.The fishermen wear heavy coats and gloves (66)to stay(stay) warm.Some people build small shelters on the ice around(67)thehole.They leave the shacks (窝棚)on the ice all winter,so they can come and go(68)easily(easy).The shelters provide some (69)protection(protect) from the cold and wind.The Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports that by January 5,ice fishing was active.Resorts are busy with those(70)who like to catch fish.

分析 本文介绍了美国北部以及加拿大流行的一种运动方式--冰下捕鱼.人们一整年就等着河里的水结冰,他们在冰面上开着卡车和摩托雪橇,把冰面打开一个洞,扔下诱饵,等着鱼上钩,这和平时的常规钓鱼没什么区别,只是时间是在冬天.钓鱼的人穿着厚厚的大衣戴着手套来取暖,有的甚至在冰洞周围建起一个窝棚来御寒.

解答 61.freezing考查形容词.这里用形容词做表语,与前面的系动词  is 构成系表结构,故填freezing.  
62.for 考查介词.waitfor是固定短语,意为"等待",故填for.  
63.works 考查动词的时态.本文讲述一个事实,故用一般现在时,主语为it,所以用动词的第三人称单数形式,故填works.
64.waiting考查现在分词.句子的主语fishers 与动词wait存在逻辑上的主谓关系,所以这里用现在分词形式作伴随状语,故填waiting.
65.is done考查动词的语态.分析句子可知,主语it指代的是前面的fishing,与动词do是被动关系,文章讲述的客观事实,所以用一般现在时的被动语态,故填is done.
66.to stay考查动词不定式.分析句子可知这里用不定式表示目的,句意:渔民们穿着厚重的大衣带着厚厚的手套来取暖.故填to stay.       
67.the 考查定冠词.这里用定冠词the表示特指,特指前文提到的hole,故填the.    
68.easily 考查副词.这里用副词作状语,修饰前面的动词 come and go,故填easily. 
69.protection考查名词.分析句子结构可知,此处要用名词形式作动词provide的宾语,故填protection.
70.who/that考查关系代词.先行词those指代文中提到的fishermen在从句中作主语,可知这是一个定语从句,在定语从句中中指人并作主语的用关系代词用who/that,故填who/that.

点评 语法填空题是考查学生的语言运用能力.解题时,要在理解文章的基础上,灵活运用语法知识,如词性,时态,名词单复数,连接词,代词,冠词等判断空白处应填写的内容.答完后,还要通读全文,核对所填单词形式是否正确,是否符合语境.

5.You might learn a great deal in school,but it's uncertain that you'll actually develop as a leader by reading a book or taking a course.The military is right about development based on experience:People grow and become leaders by making a commitment to a cause,and having personal responsibility.
For those of us in civilian life,there are also ways to develop as leaders through experience:through volunteer service.There are various nonprofit missions from which to choose as well as roles and positions in which to get involved.
Nonprofit board service is particularly convincing for business people and professionals seeking to develop as leaders.Business people who bring valuable skills and experience as well as diverse backgrounds and viewpoints are uniquely equipped to help regional,national,and global organizations to achieve success in coping with poverty,education,health care,conservation of natural resources,and other key issues.
Through nonprofit board experience,business people participate with the CEO in foreseeing an organization's greater potential,creating the income model,and achieving success.
Here's the secret to making the most of a service experience:
1.Choose a cause that's meaningful to you,and where you like the people.Determine how you can be useful-whether helping with strategic planning,inviting friends to a fund-raising event or serving on the board.If you'll be serving on the board,be clear about what will be expected of you so that you can fully devote yourself to it.
2.Be open to opportunities to raise your hand and say,"I'll help."When you know it,you could be in charge of a committee,and eventually perhaps serving as a board officer.
3.Do pay attention to potential tutors on the board where you serve and among your friends and colleagues.Talk with other people who serve on boards to share experiences,lessons,and advice.
4.Always remember the mission.It must be what you are always thinking about most as you take part in discussions and make decisions.
5.Be generous with your time and your contributions.
Once involved,you'll be surprised at how aware you will become of who's a thoughtful leader and who's not.And then your personal experience can ensure that books and various readings on leadership development will become more meaningful.
Through my volunteer service since I was 10,I've seen first-hand the power of service in developing leadership.Most of the hundreds of business people I've trained and placed on boards have moved up to board leadership positions; the key has been that the match was right,and the board candidate was committed and ready to say,"I'll help."
Through service,you have tremendous opportunities to develop as a leader,become a more valuable professional where you work,and make a meaningful contribution in improving your community and the world.
3.Although the word workaholic (工作狂) usually has a negative meaning,it is sometimes used by people wishing to express their devotion to their career positively.The"work"in question is usually associated with a paying job,but it may also refer to independent pursuits (追求) such as sports,music and art.A workaholic in the negative sense is popularly characterized by a neglect of family and other social relations.Similarly,people considered to be workaholics tend to lose track of time.
Workaholism is an addiction,and it's not the same as working hard.Experts say the continuous work-related activity masks anxiety,low self-esteem (自尊),and privacy problems.Workaholics feel the urge of being busy all the time,to the point that they often perform tasks that aren't required or necessary for project completion.As a result,they tend to be inefficient workers,since they focus on being busy,instead of focusing on being productive.In addition,workaholics tend to be less effective than other workers because it's difficult for them to work as part of a team,they have trouble entrusting co-workers,or they take on so much that they aren't as organized as others.Workaholics are occupied with work all the time,which prevents them from maintaining healthy relationships,hobbies,or even take measures to protect their health.
As with addictions to alcohol,drugs or gambling,workaholics'harmful behavior will continue despite advice from loved ones or danger signs such as worsening relationships.Poor health is another warning sign.Because there's less of social shame attached to workaholism than to other addictions,health symptoms can easily go unrecognized.In the U.S.and Canada,workaholism remains what it's always been:the so-called"respectable addiction"that's dangerous as any other.Workaholism in Japan is considered a serious social problem leading to early death,often on the job,a phenomenon called karōshi (过劳死).
As with other psychological addictions,workaholics often cannot see that they have a problem.Reasoning the workaholic out of the problem will generally be met with denial.Co-workers,family members and friends may need to communicate the effects of the workaholic's behavior to them.Indeed,mental treatment to cure a workaholic can successfully reduce the hours spent on the job,while increasing the person's productivity.Studies show that fully recovered former workaholics can accomplish in 50hours what they previously couldn't do in 80.

1.When you think of the cinema,the phrase"watching a movie"probably comes to mind,and,in fact,moviemakers work very hard to make their films interesting visually (视觉上).But movies also contain stories,dialogues,music,and sound effects-things that people don't need to see in order to enjoy.
Movie reviewer Marty Klein has created a website called Blindspots to help visually impaired (损坏的) people choose movies that they can follow without the help of an assistant to explain what is happening on the screen.Klein gives movies a rating from 1to 10based on several factors.A movie receives a high rating if there are only a few main characters whose voices are easy to recognize.Klein also likes an interesting story without too many changes in time and place.A large amount of dialogue between the characters is better than long silences or noisy action scenes.
Of course,blind or visually impaired people can enjoy many films with help from a friend who doesn't mind explaining the parts of a movie that can only be seen.But that means that someone is talking during the movie,which could annoy some audience members.It also means that blind people cannot go to the movies independently.To solve these problems,some movie theaters have begun to offer recorded audio descriptions of the movements,scenery,and special effects that other audience members can see on the screen.Blind moviegoers receive a wireless headset to wear during the movie.This allows them to listen to the narration while still hearing a movie's music and other sounds that surround them in the theater.
Another blind movie reviewer,Jay Forry,writes movie reviews that are published on his website,Blindside Reviews.He also writes for newspapers and is a guest on radio shows.Forry gives movies one of five ratings,including,"So good,blind people will like it"and"I'm glad I couldn't see it."Forry became a writer after going blind at the age of 28and deciding to go to college.His first articles appeared in the college newspaper,and Forry's writing skills and sense of humor are what keep people reading his reviews or listening to them on the radio.After"watching"The Sixth Sense,Forry commented that he thought the movie was excellent,but that he envied the boy who was the main character:"He had six senses,and I only have four."

2.The oldest forms of medicine are enjoying a comeback.Modern holistic medicine is an approach that treats the whole patient,not just the disease.It is a way to maintain good health rather than cure illness.The most important influences on today's holistic medicine are ancient Chinese medicine and Indian Ayurvedic medicine,both of which promoted whole body health.
Holistic medicine usually combines diet,physical exercise and meditation,together with other alternative techniques such as massage(按摩)and acupuncture(针炙).Herbal treatment,a practice of treating illness by using plants,is influenced by the writings of Culpeper as well as Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine.Homeopathy(顺势疗法)is one of the forms of holistic medicine which is widely practiced in Europe and the USA.Homeopathy began in Germany in the early 1800s,when Samuel Hahnemann bescribed how very tiny doses(剂量)of a drug had an effect on his patients.According to Hahnemann,the more the drug was diluted(稀释),the stronger its effects.The substance selected would produce similar effects to the disease itself if given in large doses.In the UK homeopathy is regarded as a non-traditional but just about acceptable treatment.
Meditation and contemplation have an important role in holistic medicine.They were brought to Europe by Indian teachers who combined Indian Ayurvedic medicine with Western beliefs.Transcendental meditation(超脱静坐)is one of the best known of these techniques.People repeat words inside their head to reach a state of deep relaxation.
The holistic movement has made many doctors look at the whole patient,not just the disease.Life-style,emotional problems and diet are just some of the factors that can affect a person's health.Holistic medicine emphasizes good diet,exercise and fresh air,all of which
contribute to health.Some clinics now offer holistic medicine along with traditional treatments,so
that their patients can choose a combination of treatments that suits them.One problem with holistic medicine is that it is difficult for people to be sure a doctor is reliable.To solve this,many countries want alternative doctors to form professional bodies.
