[语篇解读] 我们生活在一个处处有分心事的时代,如何排除分心事和如何专注学习,是我们需要慢慢学会的。
1.facing [考查现在分词作后置定语。句意:今天,学生面临的最大挑战之一是如何专注于学习。这里用现在分词短语作后置定语。故用facing。]
2.when [考查定语从句的关系词。句意:在一个手机和网络消耗我们大部分时间和精力的时代,能理解把注意力和精力专注于学习是多么的困难。这里名词age后接定语从句,关系词在定语从句中作状语,故用when。]
3.factors [考查名词单复数。one of后接复数名词,故用factors。]
4.is [考查主谓一致。此句主语是“One of the most important factors”其中最重要的因素之一,所以谓语动词用单数,故用is。]
5.easily [考查副词。句意:我们能容易以及更长时间的关注我们感兴趣的任务。这里用副词修饰动词focus,故用easily。]
6.exception [考查名词。句意:如果你想要专注于任何事,学习也不例外,你需要确保周围的环境没有干扰。no exception没有例外,也不例外。故用exception。]
7.to ensure [考查不定式。need to do需要做。故用to ensure。]
8.but [本题考查固定搭配not...but...不是……而是……。句意:因此问题不是如何专注于学习而是如何避免如今吞噬人类的分心之物。故用but。]
9.a [考查冠词。句意:唯一保证不分心环境的方法是通过清除我们周围所有不必要的东西,包括像手机这样的电子设备。a distraction free environment一个无干扰的环境。故用a。]
10.like [考查介词。句意:唯一保证不分心环境的方法是通过清除我们周围所有不必要的东西,包括像手机这样的电子设备。这里用介词like 像。]

[语篇解读] 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过叙述自己在成长过程中的学习经历告诉我们:虽然有些梦想可能会消失,但通过努力你仍可以让你的激情再生。
1.B [根据上文“When we were kids, we didn't think of success or failure...”及下文中“我”的经历可知,那时我们直接投身于冒险(adventures)中。]
2.D [虽然大家都支持“我”继续走这种“成功之路”,但“我”内心是感觉非常空虚的(empty)。]
3.C [根据上文并结合下文“I wanted to do ____4____ .”可知,“我”并不是大家想象的那样,“我”内心渴望(aching)着更有意义的东西。]

14.C [回顾过去,这些年来,“我”的目标和梦想变化(changed)显著。]
15.D [根据空后的“you can always have your passion reborn again”可知,“我”经常提醒自己,虽然有些梦想可能会消失(die out),但激情总能再生。]
Ⅱ.阅读理解
We can make mistakes at any age.Some mistakes we make are about money.But most mistakes are about people.Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen? When I got that great job,did Jim really feel good about it,as a friend? Or did he envy my luck? And Paul-why didn't pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car? When we look back,doubts like these can make us feel bad.But when we look back,it's too late.
Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning.And if we don't really listen we miss the feeling behind the words.Suppose someone tells you,You're a lucky dog.That's being friendly.But lucky dog? There's a bit of envy in those words.Maybe he doesn't see it himself.But bringing in the dog bit puts you down a little.What he may be saying is that he doesn't think you deserve your luck.
“Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for”is another noise that says one thing and means another.It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole.But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn't important.It's telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven't got a date for Saturday night.
How can you tell the real meaning behind someone's words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking.Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture(姿态)? The look in his eyes? Stop and think.The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文,在日常交往中,我们经常会误解他人,文章告诉我们在与他人交往的过程中要观察别人说话的表情、语调、姿态和眼神等,通过这些观察可以辨别出别人的真正想法。
1.This passage is mainly about ________ .
A.how to interpret what people say
B.what to do when you listen to others talking
C.how to avoid mistakes when you communicate with people
D.Why we go wrong with people sometimes
解析:C [主旨大意题。文章前三句“We can make mistakes at any age.Some mistakes we make are about money.But most mistakes are about people.”告诉我们经常犯的错误都是关于人的错误,在文章接下来的部分告诉我们如何辨别别人的言外之意。也就是说本文主要告诉我们在与他人交往的过程中如何避免出现错误。故C项正确。]
2.According to the author,the reason why we go wrong about our friends is that ________ .
A.we fail to listen carefully when they talk
B.people tend to be annoyed when we check what they say
C.people usually state one thing but means another
D.we tend to doubt what our friends say
解析:C [推理判断题。根据第二段前三句“Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning.And if we don't really listen we miss the feeling behind the words.”可知人们所说的话会隐藏他们真实的含义,如果我们没有真正理解,我们可能就会错过真实的含义,这也是我们为什么会和朋友产生误解的原因。故C项正确。]
3.In the second paragraph,the underlined word “it”refers to ________ .
A.being friendly B.lucky dog
C.a bit of envy D.your luck
解析:C [猜测词义题。根据第二段中“There's a bit of envy in those words.Maybe he doesn't see it himself.”可知在别人说你是幸运儿的时候,实际上是有点嫉妒的含义的,但是他自己并没有感觉到这一点。句中的it就是指前句中的“a bit of envy”,故C项正确。]
4.When we listen to a person talking,the most important thing for us to do is ________ .
A.notice the way the person is talking
B.take a good look at the person talking
C.mind his tone,his posture and the look in his eyes
D.examine the real meaning of what he says based on his manner,his tone and his posture
解析:D [推理判断题。根据最后一段中“One way is to take a good look at the person talking.Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture(姿态)? The look in his eyes? Stop and think.”可知作者建议我们观察别人说话的表情、语调、姿态和眼神等,通过这些观察可以辨别出别人的真正想法。故D项正确。]
Ⅲ.语法填空
David was a normal boy,but he had been born deaf.He was well known to everyone in town,and they were all very fond ____1____ him.Unfortunately,he always seemed to be treated ____2____ (different) from everyone else.
David didn't like this very much.But the person _____3____ disliked this the most was his friend Michael,Michael decided that things had to change.So he managed to persuade other people in town ____4____ (choose) one day of the festival for deaf people this year.During that whole day everyone in town would have to wear earplugs (耳塞).The day ____5____ (call) The Day of Silence,and when it arrived everyone stuck plugs in their ears.As the hours passed,people began to realize ____6____ difficult life was for the deaf.Soon no one was thinking of David as a deaf person. ____7____ (use) his usual gestures,David was the one who could communicate best with everyone.They were ____8____ (surprise) at his ability to find solutions to almost any problem.They realized all David needed was a little ____9____ (much) time than others to communicate.That was the only difference.
It was on this day ____10____ everyone realized they have to give people a chance to show how useful they are.
[语篇解读] 文章主要讲述一个小男孩的故事,他一生下来就听不见,城镇上的人都很喜欢他,但是对他的方式与其他人不一样。他的朋友Michael很不喜欢别人对待小男孩的方式,于是他说服人们选择某个节日的一天给聋哑人,那一天人们都必须带着耳塞。人们意识到了聋哑人的生活有多困难。
1.of [考查固定词组。句意:小镇上每一个人都知道这个小男孩,他们也都很喜欢他。be fond of 意为“喜爱,喜欢”,为固定词组。故填of。]
2.differently [考查副词。设空处修饰动词treat应用副词形式。故填differently。]
3.who/that [考查定语从句关系词。设空处引导定语从句,先行词为person指人且在从句中作主语,故填who或者that。]
4.to choose [考查固定用法。persuade sb.to do sth.意为“说服某人做某事”,为固定用法。故填to choose。]
5.was called [考查谓语动词的时态和语态。day与call之间是被动关系,要用被动语态,且由语境可知,call 表示的动作发生在过去,应用一般过去时。故填was called。]
6.how [考查连词。设空处引导宾语从句,且在从句中修饰形容词difficult,意为“多么”,故填how。]
7.Using [考查非谓语。分析句子可知,主句的谓语为was,use应该使用非谓语形式,use与David为主动关系,use要用现在分词作状语,故填Using。]
8.surprised [考查形容词作表语的用法。设空处作表语,表示主语They(指代people)的状态,应该用形容词。而且be surprised at,对……感到吃惊,为固定词组,故填surprised。]
9.more [考查形容词的比较级。由than 可知,设空处应用much的比较级形式more。]
10.that [考查强调句。设空处所在句是强调句,强调on this day。强调句句型为“It is/was+被强调部分+that/who+其他”,当被强调部分指人可以用that或who,指物时只能用that。此处指物,故填that。]
