The food was already in containers. So we set up the stand and got ready to distribute some Christmas 2 . At first, it was 3 . People seemed a bit suspicious of taking food for free. But they gradually 4 us and we had a fun afternoon singing carols and trying to 5 passersby to take our food. It was then time to deliver meals to those who weren’t able to come. This is 6 things changed for me. The first door I knocked on was 7 by a woman in her 30s. She had children and looked absolutely worn out. I told her I was from WNWNB and gave her the 8 meals. It was probably only about two days’ worth of food but, the way she 9 , I felt as if I was handing her gold. I had similar responses to my next 10 . In some cases, when people were elderly or alone, I’d go into their homes and have a brief 11 before heading off. Many felt 12 , but I saw how happy they were to have another adult human to 13 .

Not that I enjoyed receiving those pre-printed slips of paper, but at least when I got one, I was pretty sure that a flesh-and-blood 1 had put it in the envelope. And there was always the chance I might see a handwritten sentence on the bottom, 2 the piece almost made it. When an editor at Me Call’s wrote, “ I’m afraid I have to say no on this 3 piece, but try me again on another, would you ?”, it was almost as 4 to me as if she had said, “We’ll 5 it and here is an advance for you.”. Nowadays, rejection slips seem to have disappeared with the use of online submissions. Most editors don’t feel it a must to 6 they have received, read, or considered your work because they receive so many 7 each day. For me, there are three 8 of rejection slip pain. The first is 9 brought on by finding a flat “no” on a 10 piece of paper, then followed by anger (how could they 11 a piece that is obviously so much 12 than most of the stuff they print), and, finally, rebirth: I will live to 13 a new piece another day. Learning to 14 rejection seems like part of growing up as a writer.

Unable to 1 my curiosity any longer, I 2 it open. It was a brand- new laptop. I had scored straight As for my examinations and this was my 3 . Soon I became 4 to my new- found electronic friend. I began to spend increasing time on it and was 5 to the glowing screen before me. During weekends, I could 6 spend a few hours on my laptop. It came to a point where I chose to 7 myself in my room, refusing to come out and engage in family 8 . I preferred to stay connected to the people I befriended in cyberspace (网络空间) although I had never met them. Gradually, my sleep was 9 to only scattered naps, and my grades at school also began 10 . It was about this time that my parents started 11 their disapproval. I was asked to reduce my usage of the internet. Yet, however hard I tried, I was unable to pull myself away and concentrate on my lessons. I was 12 for just another click and another look at my message board. Then one day, my father 13 my laptop. I complained but in vain. Over time, I realized that Dad and Mom had always wanted the best for me. That was when I decided to take the big step — to 14 my internet addiction. Quitting was harder than I expected. But with dogged determination, I knew that I would 15 a new leaf. 1．A．arouse B．stimulate C．contain D．cultivate 2．A．tore B．cut C．broke D．sliced 3．A．order B．reward C．inspiration D．strategy 4．A．glued B．motivated C．indifferent D．impatient 5．A．resistant B．alert C．sensitive D．addicted 6．A．easily B．hardly C．clumsily D．regretfully 7．A．trap B．adapt C．lock D．shelter 8．A．conflicts B．discussions C．investments D．assessments 9．A．restricted B．adjusted C．instructed D．reduced 10．A．rising B．declining C．stabilizing D．shifting 11．A．voicing B．sharing C．challenging D．opposing 12．A．responsible B．grateful C．desperate D．ready 13．A．gave away B．took away C．threw away D．swept away 14．A．ignore B．admit C．monitor D．conquer 15．A．turn over B．pick up C．rely on D．attend to Passage 6 Here I was, sitting in the roller coaster (过山车) cart of Kingda Ka in New Jersey, the tallest and second fastest roller coaster on Earth. My friends shouted in excitement, while I shakily 1 my hands on my shorts. “How can you be so excited when...” My words caught in my throat and melted into screams as the roller coaster suddenly 2 forward. It was the fastest 3 I had ever experienced in my life: 128 miles per hour. I screamed at the top of my 4 as fear froze me up from inside. We rapidly moved up the skinny hump (驼峰) rising into the clouds at a ninety degree angle, having crossed the track bringing us forward in mere 5 . 6 , close to the highest part of the hump, I 7 a little. My screams became less terrified and more energetic. Once we reached the 8 of the hump, I could almost touch the sky. And then we were spiraling (盘旋) downwards, curving and twisting and 9 towards Earth at the same speed. 10 I realized it, we had already met the ground. It was a thirty - second - long ride. I managed to 11 the entire ride without a breakdown. I gasped in surprise. It was over. I had not only survived the ride—I had 12 it. My friend turned to me, her eyes 13 . “Are you ready for the next roller coaster?” My head felt light as we walked away from the ride spinning with something I didn’t 14 recognize. It took me a few minutes to put a name to it — thrill. “I’m ready for anything.” Until today, that 15 ride that I went on 20 years ago is still kept alive in my memory. 1．A．wiped B．waved C．joined D．cleaned 2．A．removed B．rocketed C．struggled D．marched 3．A．launch B．operation C．ride D．flight 4．A．cheeks B．throat C．heart D．lungs 5．A．minutes B．hours C．seconds D．occasions 6．A．Instead B．Meanwhile C．Therefore D．However 7．A．broke down B．calmed down C．made up D．dressed up 8．A．top B．point C．track D．location 9．A．swinging B．escaping C．shooting D．roaring 10．A．After B．Though C．Before D．While 11．A．take off B．carry on C．go through D．get through 12．A．enjoyed B．deserved C．hated D．confirmed 13．A．bright B．wet C．closed D．open 14．A．gradually B．absolutely C．immediately D．eventually 15．A．romantic B．thrilling C．alarming D．Awkward 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 主题二 哲理感悟 Passage 1 Speaking of one’s reading life, most people would probably think of their first book, or how many books they have read.

Not that I enjoyed receiving those pre-printed slips of paper, but at least when I got one, I was pretty sure that a flesh-and-blood 1 had put it in the envelope. And there was always the chance I might see a handwritten sentence on the bottom, 2 the piece almost made it. When an editor at Me Call’s wrote, “ I’m afraid I have to say no on this 3 piece, but try me again on another, would you ?”, it was almost as 4 to me as if she had said, “We’ll 5 it and here is an advance for you.”. Nowadays, rejection slips seem to have disappeared with the use of online submissions. Most editors don’t feel it a must to 6 they have received, read, or considered your work because they receive so many 7 each day. For me, there are three 8 of rejection slip pain. The first is 9 brought on by finding a flat “no” on a 10 piece of paper, then followed by anger (how could they 11 a piece that is obviously so much 12 than most of the stuff they print), and, finally, rebirth: I will live to 13 a new piece another day. Learning to 14 rejection seems like part of growing up as a writer. Despite the many letters of acceptance I have received, my folder of “ Noteworthy Rejection Slips “is far 15 than that of “Noteworthy Acceptances”, which indicates to me the fact: I still have some growing up to do. 1．A．writer B．reader C．mailman D．editor 2．A．demanding B．suspecting C．indicating D．arguing 3．A．boring B．novel C．lengthy D．particular 4．A．upsetting B．thrilling C．embarrassing D．amusing 5．A．buy B．reject C．check D．substitute 6．A．prove B．determine C．explain D．acknowledge 7．A．proposals B．drafts C．contributionis D．instructions 8．A．stages B．wonders C．meanings D．rewards 9．A．relief B．frustration C．anger D．hesitation 10．A．valueless B．expensive C．characterless D．shiny 11．A．make up B．put away C．turn down D．take over 12．A．easier B．better C．shorter D．longer 13．A．print B．revise C．download D．submit 14．A．accept B．criticize C．judge D．evaluate 15．A．thinner B．newer C．older D．fatter 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．D 4．B 5．A 6．D 7．C 8．A 9．B 10．C 11．C 12．B 13．D 14．A 1．D 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。本文讲述了作家对退稿信的怀念，过去退稿信意味着作品被真实审阅，现在随着在线投稿普及，退稿信消失，编辑也无需确认作品情况。作者认为退稿信带来失望、愤怒和重生三种痛苦，学会接受退稿是作家成长的一部分，作者收到的退稿信比录用信多，仍有成长空间。 1．考查名词词义辨析。句意：并不是说我喜欢收到那些预先打印好的纸条，但至少当我收到一张纸条时，我很确定是一个有血有肉的编辑放在信封里的。A. writer作家；B. reader读者；C. mailman邮递员；D. editor编辑。根据下文“When an editor at Me Call’s wrote,”可知，此处指的是作者收到一名编辑的来信。故选D。 2．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我总是有可能在底部看到一个手写的句子，表明这篇文章几乎成功了。A. demanding要求；B. suspecting怀疑；C. indicating表明；D. arguing争论。根据前文“And there was always the chance I might see a handwritten sentence on the bottom”可知，编辑留下的句子表明这篇文章几乎快要成功了。故选C。 3．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：Me Call的一位编辑写道：“恐怕我不得不拒绝这篇特殊的文章，但请再试一试另一篇，好吗？”A. boring无聊的；B. novel新颖的；C. lengthy冗长的；D. particular特殊的。根据下文“but try me again on another, would you?”可知，这是对于拒绝投稿的委婉的说法，赞扬文章很特别，但是不得不拒绝。故选D。 4．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：这几乎让我感到激动，就好像她在说：“我们将要买它，这是给你的预付款。”A. upsetting令人苦恼的；B. thrilling令人激动的；C. embarrassing令人尴尬的；D. amusing引人发笑的。根据后文““We’ll 　　5　　 it and here is an advance for you.””可知，因为就像是提前支付预付款，所以激动。故选B。 5．考查动词词义辨析。句意：同上。A. buy买；B. reject拒绝接受；C. check检查，查看；D. substitute代替。根据后文“here is an advance for you”可知，此处表示将要购买。故选A。 6．考查动词词义辨析。句意：大多数编辑并不觉得必须承认他们已经收到、阅读或考虑过你的作品，因为他们每天都会收到如此多的投稿。A. prove证明；B. determine决定；C. explain解释；D. acknowledge承认。根据前文“Nowadays, rejection slips seem to have disappeared with the use of online submissions.”可知，如今，由于网上投稿的使用，退稿单似乎已经消失了，大多数编辑并不觉得必须承认他们已经收到、阅读或考虑过你的作品。故选D。 7．考查名词词义辨析。句意：同上。A. proposals提议；B. drafts草稿；C. contributions投稿；D. instructions指导。根据前文“Most editors don’t feel it a must to ____6____ they have received, read, or considered your work”可知，此处对应的是work，指的是每天收到很多投稿作品。故选C。 8．考查名词词义辨析。句意：对我来说，被拒绝的痛苦有三个阶段。A. stages阶段；B. wonders奇迹；C. meanings意义；D. rewards奖励。根据后文的“The first”，“then”和“finally”可知，此处指被拒绝后的痛苦有三个阶段。故选A。 9．考查名词词义辨析。句意：首先是在一张毫无特色的纸上发现一个“不”字所带来的挫败感，然后是愤怒（他们怎么能拒绝一份明显比他们印刷的大多数东西都要好得多的作品），最后是重生：我将在另一天提交一份新作品。A. relief宽慰；B. frustration受挫；C. anger生气；D. hesitation犹豫。根据后文“by finding a flat “no””可知，发现被拒绝首先应该感受到的是挫败感。故选B。 10．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：同上。A. valueless没有价值的；B. expensive昂贵的；C. characterless无个性的；D. shiny发光的。根据“because they receive so many ____7____each day.”可知，编辑每天收到很多投稿，拒绝投稿的纸条应该是没有个性的，千篇一律的。故选C。 11．考查动词短语辨析。句意：同上。A. make up组成，编造；B. put away把……收起来；C. turn down拒绝；D. take over接管。根据前文“then followed by anger”可知，此处表示他们怎么能拒绝一份明显比他们印刷的大多数东西都要好得多的作品，由此作者感到很生气。故选C。 12．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：同上。A. easier更容易的；B. better更好的；C. shorter更短的；D. longer更长的。根据后文“than most of the stuff they print”可知，作者认为自己的投稿明显比他们印刷的大多数东西都要好得多。故选B。 13．考查动词词义辨析。句意：同上。A. print打印；B. revise修改；C. download下载；D. submit提交。根据后文“a new piece another day”可知，此处表示重新提交一份新的作品。故选D。 14．考查动词词义辨析。句意：学会接受拒绝似乎是作家成长的一部分。A. accept接受；B. criticize批评；C. judge评判；D. evaluate评估。根据后文“seems like part of growing up as a writer”可知，作者认为学会接受拒绝是作为作家成长的一部分。故选A。 15．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：尽管我收到了很多（稿件的）录用通知书，但我的“值得注意的拒绝通知书”文件夹比“值得注意的录取通知书”文件夹要厚得多，这告诉我一个事实：我还有很长的路要走。A. thinner更瘦的；B. newer更新的；C. older更老的；D. fatter更厚的。根据后文“which indicates to me the fact: I still have some growing up to do.”可知，作者“值得注意的拒绝通知书”文件夹比“值得注意的录取通知书”文件夹要厚得多。故选D。 Passage 5 I could feel the excitement rising in me as I held the beautifully wrapped present in my hands.
