题目内容
When I get puzzled about some difficult problems, my teacher always encourages me and says , “Take it _________ .”
| A.for granted | B.serious | C.simple | D.easy |
D
解析试题分析:考查固定词组。Take sth for granted认为sth理所当然;take it easy=don’tworry不要担心;BC两项的词性不对。句意:当我对一些问题感到困惑的时候,我的老师总是鼓励我说:不要担心。故D正确。
考点:考查固定词组
点评:本题考查了take的固定词组,要根据上下文的语境选择合适的短语,要把短语的意思和句意相结合。同时也要注意一个短语多种意义的现象,如pick up 捡起;用车接;无意中学会;接受信号;康复。恢复;染上…;在平时的学习中要把同种类型的短语放在一起比较,如同一个动词+不同的介词/副词;同一个介词/副词+不同的动词。诸如此类的固定短语,属于最基本的知识,如果学生有错误,则应该加强背诵并平时多解题,进而加以巩固.
After giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.
During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams.
I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me. When we had finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I had won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”
Last summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:
Dear Dick,
My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.
I told you someday that I would go to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.
Your friend,
Matthew
