【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了人们很喜欢到澳大利亚中部沙漠去攀登Uluru,这一做法带来了一系列问题,当地政府决定禁止人们攀登这块巨石。

1考查定语从句。句意:似乎在我们的血液里有某些东西,让人们想通过攀登来征服事物。本题定语从句的先行词是不定代词something,使用关系代词that来指代先行词,引导定语从句并在句中做主语。所以要填that

2考查形容词最高级及常识。句意:似乎在我们的血液里有某些东西,让人们想通过攀登来征服事物。无论它是世界最高峰-珠穆朗玛峰,还是位于澳大利亚中部沙漠中地面以上348米的巨大岩石Uluru。根据常识可知珠穆朗玛峰是世界最高峰,应该使用形容词最高级做定语修饰。所以要填最高级形式highest

3考查固定搭配。句意:似乎在我们的血液里有某些东西,让人们想通过攀登来征服事物。无论它是珠穆朗玛峰世界最高峰,还是位于澳大利亚中部沙漠中地面以上348米的巨大岩石Uluru。句中使用whether…or…意为无论还是…”,连接上下文。所以要填or

4考查名词。句意:尽管没有路,但很多游客还是会前往Uluru去攀登这块巨石。所填词在句中充当主语,而且表示人,所以要用visit表示人的名词形式visitor在句中做主语,而形容词many说明应该使用可数名词复数形式visitors。所以本句要填visitors

5考查分词做定语。句意:在巨石的底部用七种语言写着一块牌子:请勿攀登。名词短语a sign与动词write构成被动关系,要用过去分词短语做定语,其作用相当于定语从句。所以句中要填written

6考查动名词和不定式充当主语。句意:踏上这块岩石被认为是无礼的。本句中可以使用动名词短语做主语表示经常性习惯性的动作,也可以使用不定式短语做主语表示一次性的动作。所以可以填setting/to set

7考查形容词。句意:下雨的时候,垃圾废物被冲下岩石,这对环境是有害的。句中应该使用harm的形容词形式与系动词构成系表结构,所以要填形容词harmful

8考查时态。句意:根据ABC,到目前为止在攀登巨石时候,已经有35人死亡。句中时间状语so far意为到目前为止,通常与现在完成时连用,本句主语是复数名词,所以句中要填have died

9考查表语从句连词。句意:这就是为什么这个月的早些时候澳大利亚政府宣布将从20191026日开始禁止攀登Uluru。句中表语从句缺少连词,且该表语从句表示最后的结果,why引导表语从句表示最后的结果。所以要填why

10考查被动语态。句意:这就是为什么这个月的早些时候澳大利亚政府宣布将从20191026日开始禁止攀登Uluru。本句主语climbing Uluru与动词ban构成被动关系,且表示将来的事情,要用一般将来时的被动语态。所以要填will be banned

本文小题1考查了定语从句关系代词that的用法,当不定代词充当定语从句的先行词,定语从句中需要使用关系代词时,我们通常使用that引导定语从句。只能用that作为定语从句的关系代词的情况有:

1.在there be 句型中,只用that,不用which

2.在不定代词,如:anything, nothing, the one, all, much, few, any, little等作先行词时,只用that,不用which

3.先行词有the only, the very修饰时,只用that。如:

In most cases, the very first thing that we ask for when visiting a cafe or friend's house is the WiFi password.

4.先行词为序数词、数词、形容词最高级时,只用that.

5.当先行词既有人,又有物时。如:

We talked about the things and friends we met together when we lived in the countryside.

【题目】 When John was growing up, other kids felt sorry for him. His parents always had him weeding the gardencarrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers. But when John reached adulthood, he was better off than his childhood playmates. He had more job satisfaction, a better marriage and was healthier. Most of all, he was happier.Far happier.

These are the findings of a 40year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston. The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not. “Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence (能力) and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society”said George Vaillant, the psychologist (心理学家) who made the discovery. “And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them.”

Vaillant's study followed these males in great detail. Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31 and 47. Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the men's mentalhealth scores with their boyhood activity scores. Points were awarded for parttime jobs, housework, effort in schooland ability to deal with problems.

The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharpThose who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of peoplefive times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed. The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out.

Working—at any age—is important.Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competence—the underpinnings (基础) of emotional health. They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this.Yet work isn't everything. As Tolstoy once said“One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one's work.”

1What do we know about John?

A.He enjoyed his career and marriage.

B.He had few childhood playmates.

C.He received little love from his family.

D.He was envied by others in his childhood.

2Vaillant's words in Paragraph 2 serve as ________

A.a description of personal values and social values

B.an analysis of how work was related to competence

C.an example for parents' expectations of their children

D.an explanation why some boys grew into happy men

3Vaillant's team obtained their findings by ________

A.recording the boys' effort in school

B.evaluating the men's mental health

C.comparing different sets of scores

D.measuring the men's problem solving ability

4What does the underlined word “sharp” probably mean in Paragraph 4?

A.Quick to react.B.Having a thin edge.

C.Clear and definite.D.Sudden and rapid.

【题目】Korean Americans at GBS High .School

Glenbrook South (GBS) High School is in a suburb of Chicago, Illinois, in the United States. It is an award-winning school with a highly competent teaching staff. It has over 400 Asian Pacific. American students-over 17 percent of die students in the school. Of these, the majority are Korean American. This is very unusual in a state where Korean Americans are less than 1 percent of the population. The interactions of the Korean American students at GBS were the subject of an article in Asian Week magazine.

Different Korean American students react differently to being in a high school were most students are white. Professor Pyong Gap Min, an expert on Korean life in America, believes that Korean Americans in this situation can sometimes feel inhibited or ashamed of their Korean identity. Asian Week interviewed a number of GBS students, and each had a different attitude.

Alice 18 years old

I used to spend time only with Korean American friends. Although I felt secure with those friends, I found myself motivated to form closer relationship with non-Koreans, too. I felt I was missing out on new experiences and challenges.

Paul 16 years old

I have some Korean American friends, but I spend most of my time with white friends. I’m often the only Asian American in the group, but I don’t mind. What I like about the white culture is that I can be more radical. I can be as loud and funny as I want to be. I don’t see as much of that among the Asian students.

John 17 years old

In junior high school, most of my friends were white. After coming to GBS, my sense of my Korean American identity was restored, and I decided to have mainly Korean American friends. I feel that my Korean American friends and I mainly understand each other better. For example, we understand about severe parental pressures to succeed at school; I felt my white friends couldn’t really understand.

Without belittle(轻视)the importance of what these students had to say, it’s important to remember that their opinions at this phase of their lives ate bound to change as they grow into adulthood. But these honest opinions can help us better understand issues of culture relations, and their honesty might help Americans from different cultural groups to get along better in the future.

Honesty, my mum always used to tell me, is the best policy. But when it comes to medicine, I had assumed it was important to always be honest with my patients. After all, the doctor-patient relationship is based on trust, and therefore honesty is essential, or so I thought.

I had just started working in geriatrics(老年病科). Mr. McMahon 1bring in when his body was found very swollen(浮肿的). I took a medical history 2his daughter who had accompanied him in the ambulance. She'd been his main care for years. I stood 3 (look) at him as she gave a detailed history. "Has he lost any weight recently?" I asked, "Well, it's funny you should mention that, but yes." She said slowly. There was silence for a few moments. "Why? What are you worried about?" she asked. She was obviously very involved in his care and it was only fair that I told 4 the truth. "Well, we need to prove it's not cancer." I said and talked briefly about some of the tests I was going to order.

Half an hour later, a nurse called me: "Mr. McMahon's daughter broke downshe said you told her he had cancer." My heart sank. By the time I arrived at the ward, my consultant was already there, explaining that we still had to run lots of tests and that it was by no means confirmed 5 he had cancer. I stood silently at the end of the bed. My consultant was obviously angry with me and as we left Mr. McMahon, she turned to me. "Why on earth did you do that?" she asked in disbelief. I looked at her and bit my lip. "She asked me what I was worried about and I told her." I said, hanging my head. "And give her more 6 (worry) about?" replied my consultant. "You don't say the word 'cancer' until it's confirmed. 7 you suspect it, think very carefully before you tell people."

8 it turned out, it wasn't cancer. But I did learn that when someone is stressed and worried about their loved one they're sometimes selective in 9 they hearand as a doctor it's important to be mindful of this. In being truthful, I'd made the situation 10 (bad).

【题目】 According to some researchers, you should not praise children for everything that they do. It does not help them build self-confidence.

Most parents and teachers agree that praise can help increase children's self-confidence-the more, the better. However, according to some researchers, only proper praise is good for children. If adults praise everything children do, it makes children look for praise all the time, not trying to do their best. "Teachers should not say things like 'good job 'or 'nice work' whenever a child does anything. They should encourage them to continue to improve,” some researchers advise.

Another idea is that children with high self-confidence are happier, and do better at school. About this, Marshall Duke, a researcher in children, says, "High self-confidence brought in by too much praise does not make children happier, get more, or become able to do more. Finding a child's advantages and developing them can help build confidence more than too much praise can." Praise also loses its effect if it is given equally to all students.

"It's important to tell children the truth about what they've done. Honest feedback(反馈)is far better than empty praise," Duke adds. "People have got into the habit of not telling children when they’re wrong. That makes it hard for them to deal with difficulties when they grow up. That's just how the world is."

1According to some researchers, if parents praise their children too much, their children will .

A.always look for praiseB.increase self-confidence

C.become strongD.do better in their studies

2In order to help children build self-confidence, some researchers advise parents to .

A.make them live more happilyB.let them do more difficult work

C.help them do better in schoolD.encourage them to improve

3Which of the following is TRUE, according to the passage?

A.Praise makes children become successful.

B.Children don't know what they’re really good at.

C.The same praise for all children has no meaning.

D.Duke thinks praise is more important than finding children's strengths.

4The underlined word "it" in the third paragraph refers to .

A.the effectB.the praise

C.the advantageD.the confidence

5What is the last paragraph about?

A.It's important to have the habit of praising children.

B.Children should know their mistakes as soon as possible.

C.We should praise children honestly and tell them their mistakes.

D.What children with high self-confidence are like.

How to deal with Whiners(抱怨不停的人)?

There are always some people radiating negativity in the work place. For them, the temperature is never right, the boss is always a fool, the canteen food is awful, and they 1 (treat) unfairly.

Career experts say such habitual complainers are highly contagious(会蔓延的) , 2 attitude can easily affect an entire team in a company. “While some complaints might be reasonable, 3 are taken from thin air. You need to see between these different types and adopt the right strategy towards each,” said Li Ming, HR manager at Wal-Mart (China).

It is especially hard to deal with complaints at work 4 you can’t just walk away or put your colleagues’ words out of mind. If you do, it will hurt your co-workers and you might be isolated. In a team-based company you belong to a group and need to behave accordingly. But don’t show too much sympathy. Listening passively to others’ complaints could damage your image and give others the impression 5 you agree with them. “Listen to the whiners actively,” said HR Li. “Help them find a solution, or see 6 there are ways to improve the situation.”

Zhai Min, 24, a software engineer at Kingdee International Software Group in Shenzhen, found that 3 elderly workers liked to complain about everything, from 7 (extend) working hours to cheap hotels on business trips. “I let them talk about their opinions,” she said, “They feel better when 8 (tell) someone how they want things to be.”

But listening actively is far from enough. Wang Dianxue, 27, is an Internet engineer at Beijing Push Marcom Group. His co-workers always complain that their computer systems are not working properly. “I ask about the specifics and work together with them 9 (fix) everything technically.” he said.

HR managers believe that when staffs complain, it is more a matter of recognition than an actual problem. “The real problem is that the whiners don’t feel they are being taken seriously,” said Xu Jun, HR manager at Guangqi Honda Automobile Co., Ltd. “ 10 (give) them advice or perspectives attentively and the problem will usually disappear.”
