题目内容
【题目】 We don’t meet people by accident. 【1】Some will help you grow, some will hurt you, some will inspire you to do better. At the same time, you are playing some role in their lives as well. Know that paths cross for a reason and treat people with significance.
【2】There is no better joy than helping people see a vision for themselves, seeing them go to levels higher than they ever would have imagined on their own. But that doesn’t mean you have to fix them or enable them;【3】Offer them support and motivation as they find their own way and show you what they’re capable of. All you have to do is believe in them.
Never look down on someone unless you are helping them up. We like to think of life as a meritocracy(精英统治),so it’s easy to look down on someone who isn’t as successful or accomplished or well educated as you are. But you have no idea how far that person has already climbed or where they will end up. Time could easily reverse(颠倒) your positions,【4】
Appreciate those who have supported you, forgive those who have hurt you, help those who need you. 【5】 Treat all people -including yourself-with love and compassion, and you can’t go wrong.
Treat people the way you want to be treated and life will instantly get better.
A. so be sure you treat everyone with dignity.
B. therefore, cherish every person you meet.
C. Never fix them when they make mistakes.
D. Don’t tell them how to get there but show the way.
E. instead, guide them to the source of their own.
F. Business is complicated, life is complex and leadership is difficult.
G. Every person you meet will have a role in your life, be it big or small

【解析】
这是一篇应用文。我们和他人相遇并非偶然,我们生活中遇到的每个人对我们都会有或大或小的影响。本文就如何与别人相处提出了三点建议。
【1】空格位于段中。空格前句意为:我们遇见的人不是偶然。空格后句意为:一些人帮助你成长,一些人伤害你,一些人激励你做的更好。选项G中的“Every person you meet”与上句中的meet people呼应,选项G中的“have a role in your life”与下句中的各种影响呼应。故选G。
【2】空格位于段首。空格后句意为:再没有比帮助别人自己看到未来、看到他们到达了他们原来也没想到的高度让人更高兴的事了。选项D中的“show the way”与下句中的helping people see a vision for themselves 呼应,并且还与第三个空格后的Offer them support and motivation呼应,所以选项D可以作为本段主旨句,故选D。
【3】空格位于段中。这个空格位于分号后,所以句子首字母小写。据此可将答案锁定在A、B、E之间。空格前句子意思为:但这不意味着你必须要更正他们或者武装他们。选项E中的instead(取而代之的是)符合上下逻辑关系,且选项E中的guide them to the source of their own 与下句中的find their own way呼应,故选E。
【4】空格位于段尾。这个空格位于逗号后,所以句子首字母小写。据此可将答案锁定在A、B、E之间。空格前句意为:时间会很容易颠倒你们的位置。选项A中的so符合上下文逻辑关系。且选项A中的treat everyone with dignity与本段中心句Never look down on someone(不要小看别人)呼应。故选A。
【5】空格位于段中。空格前一句意思为:感恩那些支持过你的人,原谅那些伤害过你的人,帮助那些需要你的人。选项F(创业不易,生活艰难,领导难当)中的complicated, complex,difficult与上句中描述的情景相符合。故选F。
七选五题目主要考查学生综合的英语逻辑思维能力。一篇好的短文,不仅在内容上要前后一致,而且还要语篇结构清晰,上下文逻辑意义严谨。内容的前后一致体现在段内及语篇内话题的自然过渡。语篇结构主要体现为:文章是总分结构,还是按时间或空间顺序发展的,还是辩证三段论的编排的。逻辑意义的严谨最主要的可以通过代词、连词和副词等形式来体现。例如本文通过看首段及后续段落首句可知:是总分总的形式。所以第二个空格应该与第三段第四段首句是并列关系,也就是它所在段落的主旨句。第一题和第五题是根据上下文逻辑关系,根据上下句关键词意义复现解题,第三题第四题根据句子间的逻辑关系解题。这道题是相对有些难度的,仅凭借意义解题是不够的,还要掌握上下句关键词意义复现这些技巧才能有所突破。
