When I was very young, my dad had the first telephone in our neighborhood. I still remember the shiny receiver in the box. I was too little to reach the telephone, but I knew that a wonderful person lived inside it—her name was Information Please. She could give anybody’s number and the right time.
One day, my mom was out. I hit my finger and it hurt a lot. No one was home to help me. So I thought of the telephone! I called her. A soft voice said, “Information Please.” I cried and told her about my finger. She told me to put ice on it. After that, I called her for everything—help with geography, or homework, and even what my small pet ate.
When my pet bird died, I called her and cried, “Why do birds sing so well and make everyone happy, but died at last?” She said softly, “Paul, remember there are other worlds to sing in.” Those words made me feel better. At age 9, we moved to Boston. I missed the old phone and never forgot her.
Years later, my plane stopped in Seattle. I called the operator (接线员) for help. To my surprise, Sally answered! I asked her to spell “fix”, just like when I was little. She laughed and said my calls made her happy all day— she had no kids, so she hoped to talk with me.
Three months later, I called again. A different voice said Sally had died of illness. She left a message: “Tell Paul there are other worlds to sing in. He’ll understand.”
31.What was Sally’s job?
A.A pet care worker. B.A children’s helper.

A.talk B.to talk C.talking D.talks
【答案】A
【详解】句意:让我们谈谈我们成长的痛苦和收获,互相帮助吧。
let’s do sth“让我们做某事”,动词用原形,应填talk。

A.Do B.Does C.Did D.Will

3.She can face her growing pains bravely ________ she knows they can make her stronger.
A.so B.because C.but D.or
【答案】B
【详解】句意:她可以勇敢地面对成长中的痛苦,因为她知道这些痛苦能让她变得更强大。
so所以,表结果;because因为,表原因;but但是,表转折;or或者,表选择。根据“She can face her growing pains bravely...she knows they can make her stronger.”可知,空格前后句子是因果关系,前果后因,故用because连接。
4.—What do growing pains help us do?

A.become B.became C.becomes D.becoming
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——成长的烦恼帮助我们做什么?——它们帮助我们变得更加成熟。

【答案】B
【详解】句意:你应该勇敢面对成长中的烦恼,不要害怕它们。
can’t不能;should应该;mustn’t禁止;needn’t不必。根据后半句“Don’t be afraid of them”可知,这是在鼓励对方要勇敢面对,因此应选表示“应该”的情态动词should。
6.—Can we ________ our growing gains with our parents?

A.share B.to share C.sharing D.shares
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——我们可以和父母分享我们成长的收获吗?——是的,那是个好主意。

A.is; help B.are; help C.are; helps D.is; helps
【答案】B

A.have; know B.had; knows C.had; knew D.has; knows
【答案】B
【详解】句意:他上个月经历了许多成长的痛苦,但现在他知道如何应对它们了。
根据时间状语“last month”可知,第一空所在句的时态为一般过去时,谓语动词用过去式,所以第一空填had;根据“now”可知,第二空所在句的时态为一般现在时,主语“he”是第三人称单数,谓语动词用第三人称单数形式,所以第二空填knows。
9.Don’t ________ afraid of growing pains. They are part of growing up.

【答案】A
【详解】句意:不要害怕成长的烦恼,它是成长的一部分。

【导语】本文探讨了未来职业所需的不同技能,以及成长过程中遇到的烦恼与收获,强调沟通、学习和他人支持的重要性。
11.句意:不同的工作需要不同的技能。
根据下文飞行员需要了解飞行、收银员需要细心处理钱,可知这些是职业所需的“技能”,应用skills。foods“食物”、drinks“饮料”、clothes“衣服”均与职业要求无关。
12.句意:良好的沟通帮助我们与他人交谈并清晰表达想法。
根据后文“talk with others and express our ideas”可知,这是“沟通”的作用,应用communication。sport“运动”、game“游戏”、exercise“锻炼”均无法表达交流的功能。
13.句意:许多公司会举办求职面试来寻找优秀的员工。
公司选拔员工通常会进行“面试”,应用interviews。trips“旅行”、parties“聚会”、games“游戏”均不符合招聘场景。
14.句意:我们可能与父母产生分歧。
根据“growing pains”及后文“with our parents”可知,成长中会与父母有“分歧”,应用disagreements。hobbies“爱好”、sports“运动”、meals“餐食”均不符合成长烦恼的语境。
15.句意:遇到新问题时,我们可能会感到担忧。
遇到新问题时的情绪通常是“担忧的”,应用worried。excited“兴奋的”、happy“开心的”、relaxed“放松的”均不符合面对困难时的心理状态。
16.句意:我们的父母和老师总是鼓励我们。
根据后文“They help us...”可知,父母和老师给予的是“鼓励”,应用encourage。hate“讨厌”、leave“离开”、stop“停止”均与帮助的语境相反。
17.句意:他们帮助我们解决问题。
固定搭配solve problems,意为“解决问题”,应用solve。make“制造”、find“找到”、guess“猜测”均不能准确表达处理问题的含义。
18.句意:从职业讨论和成长烦恼中,我们学到了新技能,获得了有用的经验。
通过经历能获得“经验”,应用experience。money“钱”、food“食物”、time“时间”均不如experience贴合成长的主题。
19.句意:持续学习是必要的。
根据全文主旨,不断学习对成长很重要,所以是“必要的”,应用necessary。boring“无聊的”、hard“困难的”、useless“无用的”均与积极意义相反。
20.句意:这些经历帮助我们健康成长,成为更好的人。
成长的目标是变得更好、更“健康”,应用healthily,此处意为“健康地”成长。sadly“悲伤地”、angrily“生气地”、quietly“安静地”均不符合成长的正向结果。
