【题目】_____, a man who expresses himself effectively is sure to succeed more rapidly than a man whose command of language is poor.

A. Other things were equal

B. Other things being equal

C. To be equal to other things

D. Other things to be equal

【答案】B

【解析】

试题解析:考察独立结构。独立结构在句中作状语,结构为:省略主语,名词/代词 + doing(构成逻辑上的主动关系) 名词/代词 + done(构成逻辑上的被动关系)。此处原型为when two man is equal on other things,故应使用being,故填other things being equal句意:两人在其他方面比起来一样的条件下,那个能有效的表达自己的人比起另一个在语言表现力方面较弱的人,一定会更快的成功。故选B。

【题目】My grandmother was a master gardener that could make anything bloom. Even me.

She spent most of her life living on a farm in the mountains of North Caroline, where she got married, raised four children, and watched the changing of the seasons. When I was 12 years old, my dad gave up working downtown and moved back to the farm to turn to gardening. I visited on weekends to keep them company.

Every time my farm chores were done, I was free to climb the mountain, singing songs and gathering flowers. Sometimes the plants scratched me. My grandmother would say: “Beauty has a price. I hope it was worth it.” I would say, “Yes, ma’am. It was.” Then I’d scratch some more. At dusk, we’d sort the flowers and make bouquets(花束): One for the living room, one for the kitchen, and three for the bedrooms.

Even then as a child, I knew that what I desired most from my grandmother was not her flowers but her time. She has been gone for decades, but sometimes when I reach down to pick a flower or pull a weed, I see her hand, not mine. I thought I’d grow up to be a gardener as well. I informed myself, someday, when my children had childrenI would be a gardening grandma. Then the grandbabies started showing up, and I discovered I would much rather chase after them than go digging.

The truth is, I’m no gardener. I’m a picker, not a planter. I don’t need to plant a garden. My children are my flowers. They delight me and complete me with a beauty that is worth any price.

My grandmother and I differ in lots of ways, but from her, I do learn what a grandmother means. I also learn that I need attend to my grandbabies with time and water them with love. I hope that, one day, when they hold their first grandchild, they might see my hand.
