I was considering this while working as a 1 just a few weeks ago. And it came to me then how much easier it would be if we had a range of words that express different 2 of gratitude (感谢). My thoughts were soon 3 . We had a woman patient who was 4 from a knee replacement operation. One afternoon, while 5 to get into bed she collapsed (倒下) from what was 6 discovered to be a heart attack. The collapse was disastrous, 7 the emergency medical team and good teamwork. But she recovered, though 8 , and was ready for discharge (出院) after four weeks. She was 9 for everything that the medical and nursing team had done for her. On her day of discharge, we shared in her 10 at her recovery. As she was 11 she was eager to say 12 to each of us in the nursing team. When she 13 one nurse, she tried to press a five-pound note into her hand. My colleague 14 to accept it, saying that we were all just 15 our job.

We must have perseverance, and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for 1 and that this thing must be 2 .” — Marie Curie. I believe this 3 is true. In some cases life can be difficult to persevere because you may 4 at any moment. Some people don’t like to make their ways forward and keep going. Sometimes it is most comfortable to 5 . These people often turn in the wrong direction. I 6 that as long as they persevere, they can get through the challenges and 7 reach their goal. When in Grade 8, I was assigned to 8 a literary essay on each Friday. The task was very challenging, and I couldn’t find time to both read books and write an essay about it. I 9 wish I would have tried harder and put as much 10 into the essay as possible. I always seemed to be close to writing a successful essay. However, I 11 consult related materials needed and often made it harder on myself. The essay I wrote first was a 12 . This made me realize that what I had done was not enough and I must change my 13 and try my very best. Before writing I’d looked through a lot of books related to my essay. Gathering materials in the library was very 14 , but I never gave up. Because I made good preparations, my essay was well written. For that I was 15 by my teacher. I see perseverance in many 16 people around me. They have abilities to complete tasks on time, regardless of how much they 17 them. I hope that in the future I will be able to persevere more frequently and 18 . I believe working hard will pay off. Now I’m on my way to becoming a writer.

In my application letter, I was careful to 1 how much I wanted to see France; evidently, my excitement really came through in my words. Once I 2 that I was going, all I could think about was the fun of foreign travel and making all sorts of new and 3 friends. While traveling and meeting people was 4 , nothing about my term in France was what I 5 . The moment I arrived in Paris, I was 6 by a nice French couple who would become my host parents. My entire experience was joyous and exciting 7 I received some shocking news from my program coordinator: there had been an accident in my host parents’ extended family. They had to travel outside France for several weeks. That afternoon, I had to 8 out of one family’s house and into another. The exchange coordinator told me I’d have a 9 this time and asked whether I could share a bedroom with an English speaker. To avoid the temptation to 10 my native language, I asked not to be 11 with an English-speaking roommate. When I got to my new room, I 12 myself to my new roommate Paolo, a Brazilian, the same age as I, whom I was surprised to find playing one of my favorite CDs! In just a few hours, we knew we’d be good friends for the rest of the 13 . I left France with many 14 , so when people ask me what my favorite part of the trip was, they are always 15 to hear me talk about my Brazilian friend Paolo and the scores of weekdays in class, weeknights on the town, and weekends 16 France we enjoyed together. I love how people 17 seem so different, but end up being so 18 . The most valuable lesson I gained from studying in France wasn’t just to respect the French people 19 to respect all people, for your next best friend could be just a continent away. I would recommend an exchange program to anyone who wants to experience foreign cultures and gain meaningful 20 . 1．A．convey B．debate C．announce D．illustrate 2．A．approved B．confirmed C．concluded D．denied 3．A．stubborn B．anxious C．universal D．fascinating 4．A．exchanging B．upsetting C．rewarding D．promising 5．A．expected B．perceived C．doubted D．feared 6．A．greeted B．witnessed C．sponsored D．accommodated 7．A．since B．until C．when D．while 8．A．move B．depart C．withdraw D．transfer 9．A．housekeeper B．leader C．colleague D．roommate 10．A．learn B．appreciate C．speak D．master 11．A．contrasted B．evolved C．placed D．fitted 12．A．declared B．introduced C．devoted D．adapted 13．A．semester B．program C．session D．vacation 14．A．souvenirs B．suitcases C．presents D．stories 15．A．concerned B．disturbed C．embarrassed D．astonished 16．A．exploring B．analyzing C．describing D．investigating 17．A．need B．shall C．must D．can 18．A．generous B．independent C．identical D．distant 19．A．but B．or C．and D．therefore 20．A．instructions B．friendships C．facts D．data Passage 4 Twenty years ago, I joined a hiking club, not realizing that this decision would quietly 1 my life. What began as getting outdoors and exploring local hikes 2 a passport stamped with adventures around the world. Like many new hikers, I joined for 3 reasons: motivation to stay active, explore nature and make friends. What I found, however, were fellow hikers who shared trail (徒步路线) knowledge, life stories and an 4 enthusiasm for travel. Conversations sometimes 5 toward overseas experiences and gradually planted seeds. Before long, I began to see a way to 6 my desire to maintain fitness and explore the world. It was challenging at first, as I was still working full-time, and could only 7 once a year. Nevertheless, I managed to 8 short vacations and visited many striking places. Each subsequent trip brought fresh 9 and helped strengthen my willpower. I learned to navigate routes, something I once thought impossible, 10 unexpected situations and communicate with people from different cultures. I also managed to persuade my husband to 11 me to Northern England. We stayed in inviting inns, passing through rolling hills and ancient villages, 12 by the beautiful scenery. Then we booked a tour to South America where we explored Patagonia. This was perhaps the most 13 of them all, with its towering peaks, fierce winds and interesting wildlife viewing. Even though our itinerary (行程表) 14 bus travel to take us from one hiking destination to another, we were required to travel on foot, dragging our suitcases behind us. It certainly 15 an experience none of us will ever forget. Along the way, my growing love of active travel led to even more adventures. These journeys 16 physical challenge with cultural immersion. Hiking friends also introduced me to backpacking, and a new passion 17 . What stands out most is how a hiking club served as a catalyst (催化剂). It did more than maintain trails; it fostered a sense of 18 and joy. Looking back, I may have joined for fitness and fresh air, but I stayed for the people. Through organized activities and shared 19 , club members learn not only about the trails beneath their feet but also about themselves. One trail led to another, and before I knew it, the path 20 across countries and continents.

One day, he came from work early and saw me watching a local TV show Talent Sprouts (天才萌芽). It didn’t 1 Dad long to look into my eyes, “You can 2 Ave Maria, thinking of it as an unforgettable experience to be on TV”. I withdrew. I didn’t want to. But I knew it would be 3 to argue. When my musical teacher agreed that I could 4 the show, I mailed my 5 with the required information. I decided not to tell anyone outside my family about my show. Soon arrived the day when it was my 6 to perform. The first two players performed smoothly. I was next. 7 , I went to the piano, and began to play. Easy, so easy. Right to the end of performance, I suddenly realized I should not be at the end. My heart jumped to my mouth. I had 8 a part, a huge part. How did that happen? How can I 9 a solution fast enough to get smoothly back and fill in the missing part? However, I didn’t. 10 , I had the courage to smile at the camera 11 the light went off. Finally, I was presented a certification of 12 . On my way back home, I felt more relieved than 13 . In truth, the other three were far 14 . I was glad I hadn’t told my friends my appearance on TV. I would avoid sympathy or being 15 . The next day, my classmate, Chard Larson, came to me. “I saw you on TV”, he said. Uh-oh, my 16 was about to be broadcast to my classmates. The 17 I feared would follow. But before I could defend myself or 18 for my performance, he continued. “You should have told people you were going to be on TV. You were good.” His generosity touched me and almost shocked me. He played the piano and we shared the same teacher. I knew he was several levels higher than me. I got some composure, and self-confidence from the experience on Talent Sprouts. But from Chad’s words I got more than I would have from 19 playing or winning the competition. 20 like talent, begins with sprouts. 1．A．take B．bring C．last D．continue 2．A．operate B．perform C．appreciate D．watch 3．A．regardless B．useless C．powerless D．thoughtless 4．A．fail B．discover C．handle D．cancel 5．A．postcard B．parcel C．invitation D．application 6．A．turn B．duty C．order D．charge 7．A．Anxious B．Curious C．Confident D．Delighted 8．A．left B．jumped C．slid D．missed 9．A．pick out B．set out C．work out D．break out 10．A．At most B．At least C．At once D．At present 11．A．if B．because C．while D．before 12．A．education B．reaction C．graduation D．participation 13．A．disappointed B．guilty C．shocked D．disturbed 14．A．better B．intelligent C．considerate D．worse 15．A．ignored B．teased C．respected D．marked 16．A．experience B．tale C．failure D．legend 17．A．pity B．shame C．regret D．depression 18．A．forgive B．bargain C．apologize D．appreciate 19．A．perfect B．terrible C．broken D．messy 20．A．Responsibility B．Struggle C．Determination D．Kindness 人与社会 Passage 1 Jenelle was a new and kind Hampshire woman.

I could hear the 2 “She’s huge!” Obviously, the kids on the bus had known each other well. I spent that first bus 3 in silence.

As the sign-up sheet went up and down the rows, I started to come up with my 1 . Maybe it was the distance to the college where the event was to take place, or the early hour that 2 had to report for duty.

The race was long over 15 the young athlete kept pumping her arms. As she finally 16 the finish line, the noise of the crowd was thunderous. There I stood 17 , with tears falling down my cheeks. After all these years, I can still hear those cheers. I wish I could thank that remarkable athlete for what her efforts 18 this unmotivated college guy.

But do all millionaires get the sense of success they were looking for after they 3 their goals? Some continue to worry about money when they become 4 . However, there are people who have turned their 5 on their millions and found other forms of success in their lives. Jason Harley is one example.

This worried me a lot and I felt very 15 being a rich man without doing anything.” 16 he gave away all his money to charities. “It was a real sense of success that I had never felt before,” said Jason. “Many people think that ‘success’ means having a 17 job or millions in the bank. But I think my sense of 18 comes from helping others and finding true meaning in life.” Most people believe when they are earning enough money, they will have no worries. However, most people never feel they have earned enough. Jason Harley decided to 19 this kind of lifestyle. “Success is not 20 by how much money you have but by how you understand the true meaning of life.” 1．A．sample B．symbol C．remark D．radiation 2．A．ultimate B．humble C．amusing D．abstract 3．A．assign B．compose C．achieve D．cheat 4．A．worthy B．sharp C．wealthy D．steely 5．A．faces B．backs C．eyes D．heads 6．A．charm B．fame C．character D．fortune 7．A．expectations B．delights C．signs D．contexts 8．A．appreciates B．regrets C．suspects D．probes 9．A．lifestyle B．consumption C．concept D．legend 10．A．something B．everything C．somebody D．nobody 11．A．put away B．put off C．give off D．give away 12．A．respectful B．helpful C．delightful D．grateful 13．A．dreamed of B．disapproved of C．heard of D．died of 14．A．get on B．get off C．turn on D．turn off 15．A．remarkable B．guilty C．intoxicated D．graceful 16．A．Therefore B．However C．Even though D．As if 17．A．fully-equipped B．well-paid C．well-informed D．highly-motivated 18．A．astonishment B．amazement C．amusement D．achievement 19．A．close in on B．drop out of C．set out for D．go wild about 20．A．criticized B．generated C．measured D．detected 人与自然 Passage 1 There are lots of ways to raise awareness for a cause. Usually, the 1 the idea is, the more it gets noticed. And that’s precisely why one 2 Frenchman has caught our attention. Baptiste Dubanchet is biking across Europe, surviving 3 on discarded (丢弃)food. The three-month, 1, 900-mile journey from Paris to Warsaw is Dubanchet’s 4 of raising awareness of food waste in Europe and throughout the world. As you can 5 , the trip is no piece of cake. While restaurants 6 tons of food each year, much of it remains unavailable because of 7 garbage containers, health regulations, or business policies. Only about one in ten places 8 him food that would otherwise be discarded. For legal 9 , most restaurants have a policy against 10 food waste. “Some people have even 11 their jobs by giving me food,” Dubanchet said. What’s 12 interesting is the attitude various cities have toward Dubanchet’s cause. Berlin has been the 13 while the most difficult was the Czech town of Pilsen. There, he had to 14 at some 50 different stores or restaurants before finding food. The 15 is all the more serious when you consider the 16 exercise required to bike from France to Poland. “I have to get food 17 because after all the biking I am tired and I need the 18 ,” Dubanchet explained. “Is my 19 full or empty? That is the most important thing, not what I am eating.” He aims to 20 his journey by mid-July. With any luck, he’ll catch more attention in the process. 1．A．cleverer B．older C．stranger D．simpler 2．A．garbage-eating B．sports-loving C．food-wasting D．law-breaking 3．A．secretly B．finally C．entirely D．probably 4．A．purpose B．way C．opinion D．dream 5．A．observe B．imagine C．suggest D．remember 6．A．store up B．cook up C．shop for D．throw away 7．A．locked B．damaged C．connected D．abandoned 8．A．bought B．offered C．ordered D．sold 9．A．reasons B．rights C．fees D．aids 10．A．begging for B．giving away C．hiding away D．using up 11．A．did B．kept C．accepted D．risked 12．A．hardly B．usually C．particularly D．merely 13．A．easiest B．nearest C．biggest D．richest 14．A．work B．shout C．ask D．jump 15．A．competition B．conversation C．conflict D．challenge 16．A．adequate B．rewarding C．demanding D．suitable 17．A．again B．alone C．later D．fast 18．A．spirit B．energy C．time D．effort 19．A．stomach B．hand C．pocket D．basket 20．A．arrange B．restart C．report D．finish Passage 2 In the past, man did not have to think about the protection of his environment. There were few people on the earth, and natural resources seemed to be 1 . Today things are 2 , the world has become too 3 . We are using up our natural resources too quickly, and at the same time we are 4 our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue to do this, human life on the earth will not 5 . Everyone 6 today that if too many fish are taken from the sea, there will soon be none left. Yet, with modern fishing 7 , more and more fish are caught. We know that if too many trees are cut down, 8 will disappear and nothing will grow on the land. Yet, we 9 to use bigger and more powerful machines to 10 more and more trees. We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste products from factories, we will die. 11 , in most countries wastes are 12 put into rivers or into the sea, and there are 13 laws to stop this. We know, too, that if the 14 of the world continues to rise at the present rate, in a few years there will not be enough 15 . What can we do to solve these problems? If we eat more vegetables and less 16 , there will be more food available for everyone. Land that is used to grow crops 17 five times more people than land where animals are kept. Our natural resources will 18 longer if we learn to recycle them. The world population will not rise so quickly if people use modern methods of birth 19 . Finally, if we educate people to think about the problems, we shall have a better and cleaner 20 in the future. 1．A．beautiful B．unlimited C．rare D．valuable 2．A．common B．the same C．changeable D．different 3．A．crowded B．small C．dirty D．busy 4．A．protecting B．saving C．polluting D．fighting 5．A．appear B．survive C．exist D．live 6．A．wonders B．realizes C．considers D．discovers 7．A．poles B．boats C．methods D．ideas 8．A．mountains B．sea C．trees D．forests 9．A．continue B．stop C．start D．go on 10．A．grow B．plant C．save D．cut down 11．A．So B．However C．And D．Therefore 12．A．still B．even C．also D．certainly 13．A．many B．a few C．some D．few 14．A．production B．pollution C．population D．revolution 15．A．houses B．vegetables C．food D．lives 16．A．fruit B．meat C．fish D．grain 17．A．feeds B．increases C．supplies D．helps 18．A．use B．stay C．keep D．last 19．A．control B．born C．plan D．reward 20．A．nature B．air C．planet D．land Passage 3 One evening, Catherine was at home as usual. As her thoughts 1 between what she was going to do with her life and their dinner plans for the evening, she was unexpectedly 2 by an urgent call from her sister “Get over here! Turn on NBC and 3 these guys. They are just like you...” One Facebook message and a phone interview later, Catherine 4 herself on a bus with 8 strangers in the middle of the sweltering (闷热的) desert heat of Utah, picking up trash and 5 awareness about zero-waste and climate change. With a deep love of the environment and a desire to make a 6 , Catherine, Davey, and a group of self 7 “environmental pick-up artists” went on a coast-to-coast road side trash pick-up. As they walked, sometimes only 8 0.9 miles in an entire day, they 9 and steadily made their way across the United States for three years, picking up a total of 201,678 pounds of trash. Catherine and Davey 10 with us wonderful stories of hope and inspiration that fueled their 11 to continue their journey. After spending weeks silently 12 how she would have enough 13 to fly home for their two-week spring break, Catherine found a blank, unidentified envelope 14 with $850 cash in the desert. Just enough to get her home and back. After their bus 15 outside of Denver, they unexpectedly got 16 and arrived in Yosemite National Park three weeks later, just in time for the “Yosemite Facelift” where 17 from all over the state came together with a 18 of cleaning up trash all over the park. Being at the right place at the right time became almost normal, and they realized that much of what they 19 was more than just a coincidence.

Here is another inspiring story of a guide dog who was put to the ultimate test and passed successfully. One day, a woman named Audrey in the United States, who is 1 , and her guide dog, Figo, were going across the street when suddenly she was 2 by a bus, suffering extreme pain. Her elbow, ankle and ribs were hurt terribly, yet her main 3 was Figo because in those frightening and confusing minutes, he 4 to her side and had his leg badly hurt. When the police arrived, 5 on the spot reported that the couple had started to 6 the street as a minibus was turning the corner. The distracted bus driver hadn’t seen the woman and her 7 companion until the last second. Figo 8 instantly, jumping between Audrey and the bus. It was the dog’s body that 9 Audrey from the impact of the crash’s brunt (冲击力). Otherwise, Audrey’s injuries could have been deadly. The dog’s bravery and quick reaction are really 10 . While 911 was called, others rushed to aid the injured pair. Figo 11 to stay with his owner, refusing to leave her until he knew she was cared for 12 . As they lifted Audrey into the 13 , Figo still hobbled (跛行) at her side. Audrey didn’t want Figo to do that 14 his injuries, too, required immediate medical care. However, he wouldn’t allow veterinarians (兽医) to 15 him for treatment until he made sure of Audrey’s 16 . Figo spent the next three months 17 in the care of the vets. He was a delight, making many new 18 around the vet’s office. Usually, when a guide dog suffers injuries, there is a(n) 19 that he will be forced into retirement.

Thousands of people 1 found themselves in the dark without water or electricity. They found themselves cut 2 from the modern world 3 37℃ plus heat with no help and no idea when it would be over. 4 the most amazing thing happened: it brought out the best in us. While there were a few 5 acts, they were overwhelmed (淹没) by the wave of love and 6 that came from the hearts of so many. People 7 their food and ice. People who still had power 8 their homes to those who had none. People rushed out to clear roads, repair the damage and 9 electricity. People 10 on front porches (前廊) to talk.

We must have perseverance, and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for 1 and that this thing must be 2 .” — Marie Curie. I believe this 3 is true. In some cases life can be difficult to persevere because you may 4 at any moment. Some people don’t like to make their ways forward and keep going. Sometimes it is most comfortable to 5 . These people often turn in the wrong direction. I 6 that as long as they persevere, they can get through the challenges and 7 reach their goal. When in Grade 8, I was assigned to 8 a literary essay on each Friday. The task was very challenging, and I couldn’t find time to both read books and write an essay about it. I 9 wish I would have tried harder and put as much 10 into the essay as possible. I always seemed to be close to writing a successful essay. However, I 11 consult related materials needed and often made it harder on myself. The essay I wrote first was a 12 . This made me realize that what I had done was not enough and I must change my 13 and try my very best. Before writing I’d looked through a lot of books related to my essay. Gathering materials in the library was very 14 , but I never gave up. Because I made good preparations, my essay was well written. For that I was 15 by my teacher. I see perseverance in many 16 people around me. They have abilities to complete tasks on time, regardless of how much they 17 them.

A few years ago, I was a millionaire, but I knew millions of people 13 hunger every year, and there were places with no schools and no teachers. They didn’t have the chance to learn and 14 in life. This worried me a lot and I felt very 15 being a rich man without doing anything.” 16 he gave away all his money to charities. “It was a real sense of success that I had never felt before,” said Jason. “Many people think that ‘success’ means having a 17 job or millions in the bank. But I think my sense of 18 comes from helping others and finding true meaning in life.” Most people believe when they are earning enough money, they will have no worries. However, most people never feel they have earned enough. Jason Harley decided to 19 this kind of lifestyle. “Success is not 20 by how much money you have but by how you understand the true meaning of life.” 1．A．sample B．symbol C．remark D．radiation 2．A．ultimate B．humble C．amusing D．abstract 3．A．assign B．compose C．achieve D．cheat 4．A．worthy B．sharp C．wealthy D．steely 5．A．faces B．backs C．eyes D．heads 6．A．charm B．fame C．character D．fortune 7．A．expectations B．delights C．signs D．contexts 8．A．appreciates B．regrets C．suspects D．probes 9．A．lifestyle B．consumption C．concept D．legend 10．A．something B．everything C．somebody D．nobody 11．A．put away B．put off C．give off D．give away 12．A．respectful B．helpful C．delightful D．grateful 13．A．dreamed of B．disapproved of C．heard of D．died of 14．A．get on B．get off C．turn on D．turn off 15．A．remarkable B．guilty C．intoxicated D．graceful 16．A．Therefore B．However C．Even though D．As if 17．A．fully-equipped B．well-paid C．well-informed D．highly-motivated 18．A．astonishment B．amazement C．amusement D．achievement 19．A．close in on B．drop out of C．set out for D．go wild about 20．A．criticized B．generated C．measured D．detected 【答案】 1．B 2．A 3．C 4．C 5．B 6．D 7．C 8．A 9．A 10．B 11．D 12．B 13．D 14．A 15．B 16．A 17．B 18．D 19．B 20．C 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了很多人将成为百万富翁视为终极成功，但杰森·哈利实现财富目标后，放弃富人生活捐赠全部财产，认为帮助他人、探寻生命真谛才是真正的成功。 1．考查名词词义辨析。句意：对于很多人来说，成为百万富翁是成功的象征，他们把这作为他们的最终目标。A. sample样本；B. symbol象征；C. remark评论；D. radiation辐射。根据上文“becoming a millionaire”以及下文“success”可知，成为百万富翁是成功的象征。故选B项。 2．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：对于很多人来说，成为百万富翁是成功的象征，他们把这作为他们的最终目标。A. ultimate最终的；B. humble谦逊的；C. amusing有趣的；D. abstract抽象的。根据语境以及下文“goal”可知，此处指把成为百万富翁作为最终目标。故选A项。 3．考查动词词义辨析。句意：但是，所有的百万富翁在实现目标后都获得了他们所追求的成功感吗？A. assign分配；B. compose构成；C. achieve实现；D. cheat欺骗。根据句意以及下文“their goals”可知，此处为固定短语achieve one’s goals，意为“实现目标”。故选C项。 4．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：有些人在变得富有后仍然担心钱的问题。A. worthy值得的；B. sharp锋利的；C. wealthy富有的；D. steely钢铁般的。根据前文“becoming a millionaire”可知，此处为有些人在变得富有后仍然担心钱的问题，形成语义复现。故选C项。 5．考查名词词义辨析。句意：然而，也有一些人抛弃了他们的百万财富，在他们的生活中找到了其他形式的成功。A. faces表面，脸面；B. backs后背；C. eyes眼睛；D. heads头。根据下文“and found other forms of success in their lives”可知，此处为也有一些人抛弃了他们的百万财富，turn one’s back on为固定短语，意为“放弃；背弃”。故选B项。 6．考查名词词义辨析。句意：16年前，杰森是一名大学教授，拥有一栋大房子和200万美元的财富。A. charm魅力；B. fame名声；C. character性格；D. fortune财富。根据下文“of two million dollars”可知，此处为拥有两百万美元的财富。故选D项。 7．考查名词词义辨析。句意：没有任何迹象表明杰森是一个富有和成功的人。A. expectations期待；B. delights乐趣；C. signs迹象；D. contexts语境。根据前文“lives in a small dormitory room with only second-hand furniture”可知，杰森住在小宿舍，用二手家具，没有显示出富有的迹象。故选C项。 8．考查动词词义辨析。句意：但杰森很欣赏这种改变。A. appreciates欣赏；B. regrets后悔；C. suspects怀疑；D. probes探查。根据下文“He is pleased to give up”表明 杰森“认可、欣赏”这种改变。故选A项。 9．考查名词词义辨析。句意：他乐于放弃富人的生活方式。A. lifestyle生活方式；B. consumption消费；C. concept概念；D. legend传奇。根据上文“a huge house”及“a small dormitory room with only second-hand furniture”生活状态的对比可知，此处为他乐于放弃富人的生活方式。故选A项。 10．考查代词词义辨析。句意：他厌倦了被认为过着成功的生活，被认为是一个拥有一切而许多人一无所有的人。A. something某物；B. everything一切；C. somebody某人；D. nobody无人。根据下文“while many people had nothing”可知，此处为自己拥有一切，而很多人一无所有，形成对比。故选B项。 11．考查动词短语辨析。句意：他决定捐出他所有的钱。A. put away储存；B. put off推迟；C. give off散发；D. give away捐赠。根据下文“gave away all his money to charities”可知，此处为他决定捐出他所有的钱。give away为原词复现。故选D项。 12．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我想要的是简单地生活，并对他人有所帮助。A. respectful恭敬的；B. helpful有帮助的；C. delightful令人愉快的；D. grateful感激的。根据下文“comes from helping others”可知，杰森的目标是帮助他人。故选B项。 13．考查固定短语辨析。句意：几年前，我还是个百万富翁，但我知道每年有数百万人死于饥饿，有些地方没有学校，没有老师。A. dreamed of梦想；B. disapproved of反对；C. heard of听说；D. died of死于。根据语境以及下文“hunger every year”可知，此处指因饥饿失去生命。故选D项。 14．考查动词短语辨析。句意：他们没有机会学习，无法在生活中取得进展。A. get on进展；B. get off下车；C. turn on打开；D. turn off关闭。根据句意以及上文“They didn’t have the chance to learn”可知，此处指没有机会学习和生活中取得进展。get on in life为固定表达，意为“在人生中取得进展”。故选A项。 15．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：这让我很担心，作为一个什么都不做的富人，我感到很内疚。A. remarkable显著的；B. guilty内疚的；C. intoxicated陶醉的；D. graceful优雅的。根据下文“being a rich man without doing anything”可知，此处指作为富人却无所作为，杰森感到内疚。故选B项。 16．考查副词词义辨析。句意：因此，他把所有的钱都捐给了慈善机构。A.

Only about one in ten places 8 him food that would otherwise be discarded. For legal 9 , most restaurants have a policy against 10 food waste. “Some people have even 11 their jobs by giving me food,” Dubanchet said. What’s 12 interesting is the attitude various cities have toward Dubanchet’s cause. Berlin has been the 13 while the most difficult was the Czech town of Pilsen. There, he had to 14 at some 50 different stores or restaurants before finding food. The 15 is all the more serious when you consider the 16 exercise required to bike from France to Poland. “I have to get food 17 because after all the biking I am tired and I need the 18 ,” Dubanchet explained. “Is my 19 full or empty? That is the most important thing, not what I am eating.” He aims to 20 his journey by mid-July.
