This winter I had to stay home and looked after my 5-year-old nephew so his mother has been working at the hospital day and night, taken care of patients. I remembered of the moment his mother left for the hospital, he burst into tear and tried to keep her going there. Then I explain to him “Your mother is like Wonder Woman, one of the cartoon superheroes who fights bad guys every day.” He final calmed down. Because in her mind, it is Wonder Woman which is the strongest in the battlefield.

【解析】
本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己照顾5岁小侄子的故事。
1.考查固定短语。固定短语:stay at home“待在家里”。故stay后加at。
2.考查原因状语从句。此处引导原因状语从句,应使用because。故so改为because。
3.考查非谓语动词。take与his mother是逻辑主谓关系,应使用现在分词,表主动。故taken改为taking。
4.考查动词。remember是及物动词,可以直接加宾语,of明显多余。故去掉remembered后的of。
5.考查名词复数。tear表示“眼泪”时,是可数名词,常用复数。故tear改为tears。
6.考查动词时态。根据语境可知,此处描述的是过去的事情,应使用一般过去时。故explain改为explained。
7.考查主谓一致。此处是定语从句的谓语动词,who指代the cartoon superheroes,属于复数概念,应使用动词原形。故fights改为fight。
8.考查副词。此处修饰动词短语calmed down,应使用副词形式。故final改为finally。
9.考查代词。根据语境可知,此处指代“在小侄子的心里”,应使用his。故her改为his。
10.考查强调句型。去掉it is及which后,剩余成分能组成完整句子,因此此处是强调句型,强调Wonder Woman,指人,应使用who/that。故which改为who/that。
【题目】请阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填一个单词。
Generally speaking,people often return to a set level of happiness despite life's ups and downs,For instance,people who win the lottery tend to return to roughly their original levels of happiness after the novelty of the win has worn off.The same-is true for those who are in major accidents and lose the use of their legs.The change in ability can be damaging at first,but people generally return to their pre-accident levels of happiness after the habituation period.This phenomenon is called hedonic adaptation,a concept studied by positive psychology researchers.
There are activities that are more or less affected by hedonic adaptation.Some of these activities are known as pleasures.They can lift your mood and leave you feeling wonderful,but their effects can be relatively a short time.What's more,we get used to them relatively quickly.If you have the same meal every day for a week,for example,you may find it to be less pleasurable by the end of the week. Gratifications(满足)are also such activities affected by hedonic adaptation.They can get us into a feeling of"flow”where we don't notice the passage of time,and where we're thoroughly engaged in what we're doing.Gratifications are activities that require more effort and thought,but the payoff is higher as well The more we engage,the more we enjoy!
Knowing that pleasures don't last long in their effects may make them seem less worth the effort than gratifications.There are reasons why they can be perfect for certain situations,however.First,they bring a quick lift in mood without a great deal of effort.This is actually quite valuable because there is significant research that shows that a lift in mood can lead to chain reaction of positive feelings.Second, gratifications do take more effort,so when you only have few minutes or a very limited amount of energy,pleasures are often the simpler and more accessible option.
Thankfully, we can do something to move away from the limiting effects of hedonic adaptation and engage in activities that can create a greater level of happiness in lie.For example,be sure to make time for hobbies!It doesn't really matter what the hobby is;as long as it's one you enjoy,you'll benefit from it,and these benefits will extend into the rest of your life.It's also a good idea to help other people. This can create greater meaning in your life, and thus create greater happiness.Enjoying your positive experiences is also a great way to maximize the positive in your life.So at the end of the day,a few days, a week,write about three things you enjoyed that day.Then,you'll be reliving these positive experience as you write about them,and can relive them again when you read.
