(2009年东北三校第一次联考)My son was badly hurt in a fire.After he __1__from a series of treatments, the doctors told him they would not do any operation for six months __2__it took long for the skin to stop shrinking(收缩).So, he had to return to college with a visible 10­inch__3__on his face.

I said to my son,“Keaton, __4__will pay any more attention to your scar __5__you do.If it does not bother you, it will not bother __6__.”He took my advice to heart and returned to school with his head __7__high-glad he was alive.

__8__,everyone has scars and shortcomings.Some of you may spend much time thinking that people would like you better,__9__you looked different, or dressed differently, or could have a different and newer __10__.

But you see, like Keaton’s scar, people will only judge you by your looks, or your __11__,or your car, if you are judging yourself by these same false __12__.

One of my friends in college was very __13__.At first, when people met him, they noticed his __14__for about 10 seconds.This man felt __15__about himself and spent most of his time __16__about other people’s comfort and welfare.__17__, people ignored his looks.What people __18__was his kindness and his concern for them.He didn’t act in an ugly way so people didn’t treat him as an ugly man.

Therefore, concentrate on what you value __19__yourself, because if you can see that beautiful person, everyone you are in contact with will see the same __20__.

1.A.cured  B.recovered C.improved D.returned

解析:选B。上一句提到儿子在一次大火中被严重烧伤,由此可知此处应用recover,表示经过一系列治疗,他“康复”了。假如选择A项,应变成被动形式。

2.A.because   B.though   C.until    D.before

解析:选A。本句的前半部分提到医生告诉他六个月内不能再做手术,后半部分解释的是其中的原因,所以空格处表示的是因果关系。

3.A.cut      B.wound   C.injury    D.scar

解析:选D。由于暂时无法进行手术,他的脸上有一道十英寸长的清晰可见的“伤疤”。下一段前半部分中的scar也是线索提示。cut表示“伤口”;wound多用来表示刀伤或枪伤;injury多指(对躯体的)伤害,损伤。

4.A.no one   B.anyone    C.everyone   D.someone

解析:选A。此处是作者在安慰自己的儿子,意在表明如果儿子自己不把伤疤放在心上,“没有人”会留意儿子脸上的伤疤。

5.A.as      B.like     C.than     D.when

解析:选C。根据本句中的more可知是进行比较。

6.A.another   B.others    C.all      D.us

解析:选B。如果儿子自己不会因脸上的伤疤而烦恼,“其他人”也不会把此事放在心上。此处是泛指其他人。

7.A.put     B.held      C.taken    D.hung

解析:选B。hold one’s head high是固定短语,表示“趾高气扬,扬眉吐气”。此处是介词with的复合结构。

8.A.After all  B.In conclusion  C.In fact     D.Above all

解析:选C。此处是作者进行了引申,“事实上”每个人都有伤疤和缺点。after all毕竟;in conclusion在结束时,最后;above all首先,最重要的是,都不符合所给语境。

9.A.as long as  B.if      C.even if    D.as if

解析:选B。一些人可能认为“如果”自己的长相、衣着等与众不同,人们就会喜欢自己。as long as只要;even if即使;as if似乎,语意都不恰当。

10.A.house   B.telephone   C.job     D.car

解析:选D。此处与下一段中的car相呼应。其余选项在文章中没有信息支持。

11.A.clothes  B.hairstyle   C.figure    D.salary

解析:选A。此处与上一段中的or dressed differently相呼应,由此可判断应选clothes“衣服”。

12.A.means   B.standards    C.comments  D.rules

解析:选B。作者认为仅仅凭借外在因素去评价一个人是错误的评判“标准”。means方法,手段;comments评论;rules规则,均不符合语境。

13.A.smart   B.optimistic    C.rude    D.ugly

解析:选D。根据本段最后一句可知作者的这位朋友长相“丑陋”。

14.A.manners  B.expressions  C.looks     D.actions

解析:选C。由于此人长相丑陋,人们遇到他时自然会长时间地盯着他看,因此looks“外貌”最符合语境。

15.A.lucky   B.worried   C.good    D.sad

解析:选C。根据本句后半部分中的内容可知这个人自我感觉“良好”。

16.A.inquiring  B.asking   C.knowing   D.caring

解析:选D。虽然这个人长相丑陋,却有一颗善良的心,他用大部分的时间去“关心”别人的舒适和福利。inquire打听;ask询问;know了解,语意都不恰当。

17.pletely  B.Gradually  C.Obviously  D.Suddenly

解析:选B。他的善意感动了周围的人,人们“逐渐”忽视了他的相貌。A项表示“彻底”,过于绝对。

18.A.wanted   B.understood   C.brought    D.saw

解析:选D。上一句提到人们不再过于注意他的相貌,由此可知人们“看”到的是他的善良和对别人的关心。

19.A.within   B.beyond    C.except    D.above

解析:选A。作者以自己的一个朋友为例,意在表明人的内心比外貌更加重要,所以要注重自己的“内在”价值。

20.A.kindness   B.concern    C.beauty    D.perfection

解析:选C。如果你能看到你的内在美,其他与你有接触的人同样可以看到你的“美”。
