My father passed away when I was 10, which had an effect on me. With my family hardly making ends meet, I grew up 1 . I went to community college and then 2 an academic scholarship to Southern Methodist University’s Cox School of Business in Dallas, where I obviously needed to keep my grades up to keep the scholarship. That was 3 , because at the same time, I was working after school to pay the bills.
By November 1995, the full course 4 and work schedule left me physically and mentally worn out. One night, I came home from work late and reached my 5 point. I had class in just a few hours and still needed to prepare, despite 6 needing a few hours of sleep. I sat on the floor of my apartment and 7 .
Then I had an idea. With tears in my eyes, I 8 and wrote myself a check for $1 million. I told myself that I would 9 that check for the full amount three years after graduation. At the time, I usually had so little money in my 10 that I never knew if I would have enough to 11 $40 from the bank.
Fast-forward to 1996. I had graduated from SMU, and within three years, I was building the first of several companies I would 12 and sell over the next few decades. The 13 of those businesses exceeded (超过) that of the check.

答案与解析
本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者从小因家境贫困所以刻苦学习获得了奖学金,并在学习之余打工付账单。在自己濒临崩溃的时候,作者给自己开了一张支票,以激励自己摆脱现状。最终在不断努力下作者成立了几家公司。那张支票成了一种提醒,提醒自己无论事情有多艰难都能做到。
1.C 考查形容词词义辨析。句意:我的家庭几乎入不敷出,我从小就很穷。happy “快乐的”; shy “害羞的”; poor “贫穷的”; brave “勇敢的”。根据上文“With my family hardly making ends meet”可知,作者从小家里就很贫穷。故选C。
2.A 考查动词词义辨析。句意:我上了社区大学,然后获得了达拉斯南卫理公会大学考克斯商学院的学术奖学金,在那里显然我需要保持成绩才能获得奖学金。earn “赢得;赚”; found “创立”; expect “预期”; concern “使担心”。根据下文“an academic scholarship”以及“where I obviously needed to keep my grades up to keep the scholarship”可知,作者获得了奖学金。故选A。
3.B 考查形容词词义辨析。句意:这很困难,因为与此同时,我放学后还要工作来支付账单。impossible “不可能的”; difficult “困难的”; fun “有趣的”; necessary “必需的”。根据下文“because at the same time, I was working after school to pay the bills”可知,作者需要放学后打工来付账单,能在学业上获得奖学金是很不容易的。故选B。
4.B 考查名词词义辨析。句意:到1995年11月,我的满满的课程负载和工作日程让我身心疲惫。option “选择”; load “负载”; promotion “促销”; location “位置”。根据下文“left me physically and mentally worn out”可知,满满的课业和工作让作者很疲惫。故选B。
5.D 考查动词词义辨析。句意:一天晚上,我下班回家很晚,到了崩溃的地步。start “启动”; stick “粘”; talk “说话”; break “打破”。根据上文“left me physically and mentally worn out”以及下文“I had class in just a few hours and still needed to prepare, despite 6 needing a few hours of sleep. I sat on the floor of my apartment and 7 .”可知,这一天的劳累让作者处于崩溃的边缘,breaking point意为“崩溃点,极限”。故选D。
6.A 考查副词词义辨析。句意:我刚上了几个小时的课,尽管我迫切需要几个小时的睡眠,但我仍然需要准备。desperately “拼命地,极度地”; obviously “明显地”; gradually “逐渐地”; temporarily “暂时地”。根据上文“I had class in just a few hours and still needed to prepare”可知,作者上了几个小时的课还要再准备课,因此作者非常疲劳,非常需要休息。故选A。
7.C 考查动词词义辨析。句意:我坐在公寓的地板上哭了。whisper “低声说”; hug “拥抱”; cry “哭”; regret “后悔”。根据上文“One night, I came home from work late and reached my 5 point.”以及下文“With tears in my eyes”可知,作者快要崩溃了,就哭了。故选C。
8.D 考查动词短语辨析。句意:我热泪盈眶,站起身给自己开了一张100万美元的支票。give in “屈服”; bend down “弯下腰”; turn around “转身”; get up “起床,站起来”。根据上文“I sat on the floor”可知,作者是从地板上站起来给自己开支票的。故选D。
9.C 考查动词词义辨析。句意:我告诉自己,我会在毕业三年后全额兑现那张支票。recover “恢复”; maintain “保持”; cash “兑现支票”; examine “检查”。根据下文“At the time, I usually had so little money in my 10 that I never knew if I would have enough to 11 $40 from the bank.”可知,作者要用现金兑现这张支票。故选C。
10.B 考查名词词义辨析。句意:当时,我的账户里通常只有很少的钱,我不知道我是否有足够的钱从银行提取40美元。mind “头脑”; account “账户”; bill “账单”; salary “薪水”。根据下文“to 11 $40 from the bank”可知,作者从银行取钱一定有银行账户。故选B。
11.A 考查动词词义辨析。句意同上。withdraw “撤回,提取”; donate “捐赠”; afford “承担得起”; ensure “确保”。根据下文“$40 from the bank”可知,是从银行取钱。故选A。

14.D 考查副词词义辨析。句意:相反,我把它放在抽屉里,作为一种提醒,无论事情有多艰难,我都能做到。otherwise “否则”; therefore “因此”; moreover “此外”; instead “相反”。根据上文“I’ve never cashed it.”以及下文“I keep it in my drawer as a(n) 15 that I can make it, no matter how tough things get.”可知,上下文是转折关系,此处需要副词表示转折,Instead符合语境。故选D。
15.C 考查名词词义辨析。句意同上。agreement “协议”; announcement “公告”; reminder “提醒”; argument “争论”。根据下文“I can make it, no matter how tough things get”可知,作者把这张支票当作了一种提醒,提醒自己无论事情有多艰难都能做到。故选C。
