She worried that others would judge her paintings strictly and point out her weaknesses without mercy. 1 for years, she painted only inside her quiet bedroom and kept all her pictures 2 in drawers so that nobody else could see them. Her art teacher, who had discovered her 3 at an early age, kept encouraging her to step out of her 4 zone, but Sophie hesitated all the time because she feared public 5 . One warm spring weekend, when cherry blossoms bloomed all over the city, a local park held a public painting activity 6 to people of all ages. After long painful internal 7 between fear and expectation, Sophie 8 up her courage and took her sketchbook there. She found a quiet corner far away from large 9 and started painting cherry-blossom trees whose pink petals danced softly in the gentle wind. Her hands shook slightly while she 10 her paint brush. She kept looking around nervously, fearing others would 11 over her shoulder and comment on her unfinished work. An elderly gentleman who carried a painting board under his arm stopped beside her and watched silently for several minutes. Sophie’s face burned hot with 12 . She wanted to close her sketchbook at once and 13 from the public eye. To her great 14 , the man gave gentle praise for her special colour choices instead of finding 15 . He did not talk about perfect skills. He told her real beauty lay in personal true feelings rather than 16 skills that only few people could achieve. Gradually Sophie 17 herself and poured more energy into her painting. More passers-by stopped to enjoy her work and shared warm kind comments. That sunny afternoon became an important 18 point for her. Sophie realized there was no need to 19 perfect performance all the time. It was fine to show imperfect work. Bravery was more important than being excellent. From then on, she began to share her paintings online and even joined a small local art club where members communicated 20 about creation. 1．A．Otherwise B．However C．Besides D．Therefore 2．A．hidden B．stored C．locked D．placed 3．A．ability B．gift C．intelligence D．skill 4．A．peaceful B．safety C．private D．comfort 5．A．judgment B．criticism C．comment D．opinion 6．A．reliable B．available C．accessible D．open 7．A．struggle B．conflict C．debate D．fight 8．A．picked B．took C．gathered D．made 9．A．groups B．crowds C．audiences D．visitors 10．A．held B．grasped C．carried D．controlled 11．A．glance B．stare C．peek D．watch 12．A．curiosity B．embarrassment C．anxiety D．disappointment 13．A．hide B．escape C．withdraw D．avoid 14．A．relief B．astonishment C．excitement D．satisfaction 15．A．flaws B．mistakes C．weaknesses D．faults 16．A．flawless B．perfect C．excellent D．professional 17．A．settled B．calmed C．relaxed D．freed 18．A．vital B．changing C．key D．turning 19．A．chase B．pursue C．seek D．hunt 20．A．openly B．freely C．actively D．warmly Passage 2 Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be, but when you 1 eyes on them, you know at that 2 moment they will affect your life in some 3 way. And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful and unfair 4 , but on reflection you find that without overcoming those 5 you would have never realized your potential, strength, willpower, or heart. Everything happens for a 6 . Nothing happens 7 or by means of good luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and complete stupidity all occur to test the 8 of your soul. Without these small tests, 9 they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. It would be safe and comfortable, but 10 and pointless. The people you meet who affect your life, and the success and downfalls you experience, help to 11 who you are and who you become. Even the 12 experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant (伤心的) and important ones. If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart, 13 them, for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being 14 when you open your heart. If someone loves you, love them back 15 , not only because they love you, but because in a way, they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things. Make every day 16 . Appreciate every moment and take from those moments everything that you possibly can for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people that you have never talked to before, and 17 listen. Let yourself fall in love, break free, and set your sights high. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don’t believe in yourself, it will be hard for others to believe in you. You can make your life 18 you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it with 19 no regrets. Most importantly, if you LOVE someone, tell him or her, for you never know what tomorrow may have 20 . And learn a lesson in life each day that you live. That’s the story of life. 1．A．base B．spend C．lock D．exchange 2．A．Very B．just C．only D．much 3．A．profound B．productive C．peaceful D．precious 4．A．at last B．at first C．at least D．at most 5．A．qualities B．virtues C．motivations D．obstacles 6．A．reason B．excuse C．incident D．complex 7．A．in principle B．on purpose C．by accident D．without hesitation 8．A．challenge B．condition C．limits D．maximum 9．A．whichever B．whenever C．wherever D．whatever 10．A．passionate B．dull C．active D．fragile 11．A．crash B．create C．crack D．criticize 12．A．negative B．past C．delightful D．sensitive 13．A．hate B．ignore C．forgive D．delete 14．A．vivid B．cautious C．easygoing D．serious 15．A．desperately B．gradually C．blindly D．unconditionally 16．A．disappear B．predict C．count D．seize 17．A．similarly B．actually C．differently D．unforgettably 18．A．anything B．everything C．nothing D．something 19．A．temporarily B．permanently C．gratefully D．absolutely 20．A．in future B．in store C．in time D．in shape Passage 3 Arriving at the mountaintop observatory (天文台), I was bursting with 1 . I was about to 2 my junior year of studying astrophysics (天体物理学), with plans to apply for a Ph.D．in the field. 3 , the excitement didn’t last. Here, always staring at a computer screen and pressing a combination of buttons to control the telescope alone for several days, I 4 this wasn’t what I had imagined. I had 5 being an astronomer under the influence of my father. But after my experience at the observatory, a question 6 in my mind: Does such life really 7 me? After returning to college and considering much about my future, I still wanted to 8 more about the natural world. I thought it would be better to do research involving multiple disciplines and requiring cooperation. After all, I disliked the feeling of 9 studying astrophysics. Thinking about my potential new field, I felt excited as well as 10 about how my adviser would respond. I submitted an outline, and to my relief, it got the 11 of my adviser and he guided me patiently. However, I had extremely limited time to 12 a new research project. Anyhow, I accepted the 13 . In my new research project, being able to shape and control interesting, physical phenomena 14 me in a way astronomy did not. Besides, I could 15 my communication skills by working with high school physics students and tutoring in a college physics room. I 16 these experiences. They provided me with a(n) 17 to be both a scientist and a communicator, and speaking to enthusiastic students gave me the extra 18 I needed to return to my research. What’s more, I got a real change out of these experiences. Completing my Ph.D．, I knew I wanted to find work letting me both 19 science and draw more people to the field. Learning more about myself, I’ve realized that remaining open to new possibilities can be 20 . Now, in addition to conducting research, I lecture at universities, run a summer school, and work with educators. 1．A．depression B．contentment C．astonishment D．excitement 2．A．describe B．accomplish C．subscribe D．imitate 3．A．However B．Therefore C．Otherwise D．Still 4．A．recommended B．overcame C．informed D．realized 5．A．appreciated B．anticipated C．declined D．regretted 6．A．aroused B．rose C．arose D．raised 7．A．comfort B．evaluate C．annoy D．suit 8．A．explore B．transform C．wonder D．ranged 9．A．closeness B．passion C．loneliness D．urgency 10．A．sorrowful B．amazed C．proud D．anxious 11．A．punishment B．criticism C．approval D．envy 12．A．score B．replace C．advertise D．design 13．A．invitation B．challenge C．guidance D．suggestion 14．A．stimulated B．worried C．puzzled D．reminded 15．A．highlight B．predict C．enhance D．dominate 16．A．gave away B．added up C．turned to D．benefited from 17．A．promise B．opportunity C．dilemma D．decision 18．A．description B．pressure C．motivation D．trouble 19．A．make up B．contribute to C．escape from D．turn in 20．A．rewarding B．controversial C．stressful D．demanding Passage 4 Poorna Malavath and Kavya Manyapu are two women who have made exploring the world’s most difficult mountains with their passion. They have now channeled their spirit of 1 into Project Shakthi. The purpose of Project Shakthi is to change mindsets about what women can 2 and to promote stories that can serve as 3 . Malavath and Manyapu are determined not only to 4 money for education but also to empower (赋权) girls by exposing them to opportunities that would otherwise remain 5 . Their 6 began in August when they climbed a 6,012m peak in Ladakh, India, which had never been mapped by humans before. The mountain presented challenges for even a fully 7 mountaineer like Malavath, with no trails to 8 . Rainy weather conditions that turned to snow at high altitudes added to the 9 of climbing the peak. At their darkest moments, they found 10 in Shakthi’s aim: “We climb so that girls can 11 .” Malavath and Manyapu believe that while women are now seen in various fields, there is still a wide gap to 12 . Enrollment rates (入学率) are almost 13 between genders across the world; 14 , only 36% of girls complete lower secondary school compared to 44% of boys in low-income countries. To 15 this global issue, Project Shakthi has set its sights on 16 the beneficial groups. Manyapu and Malavath plan to climb Mount Aconcagua as part of their next phase. They invite people interested in climbing to 17 them. The project has already begun selecting girls in India. 18 , the project aims to sponsor girls across the globe.

She had spotted a few, but only from far away. But that night, when someone said there was a penguin on the ice outside the station, Elaine rushed out, barely pausing to grab her coat, driven by a(n) 1 excitement. A frosty wind circled, a(n) 2 . Elaine knew the weather could change 3 . Although the icy plain looked solid, its sheet was in constant 4 . Crevasses hid beneath the snowy surface. Rows of blue and red flags 5 a safe path through this dangerous zone. It was 6 the rules to approach a penguin. So she had to wait and see if the bird would come to her. She held her breath, concentrated on the penguin waddling toward her and 7 it to keep coming. Soon the bird stood just in front of her, with its eyes 8 with hers. So sweet! 9 she leaned into the blowing wind and followed the bird farther out on the ice, away from the station. Suddenly, a strong gust knocked her off her feet. Elaine rolled over and over until she found herself lying on a thin skin of ice above a blue crevasse. Crunch! She dropped a little lower. If she 10 , she’d drop into the crevasse, where nobody would even ever find her. Panic 11 her chest as she realized how 12 her situation was. Then the wind 13 . In a sudden quiet, Elaine felt someone near, her penguin! Seeing Elaine move, the bird walked away, then stopped and looked back, which seemed to invite her to follow. Cracks 14 around her. She made up her mind. She would trust her bird. She spread her arms on the ice like wings, keeping her body 15 and spreading her weight across the fragile surface. She pushed forward on her belly, 16 ahead. The penguin wove a trail between the cracks. Elaine scraped along behind, 17 time as she focused on following the penguin’s path, ignoring the cold that was starting to 18 her fingers. Finally, with one last 19 of her arms, Elaine crawled after her penguin onto solid, white ice. She collapsed, gasping, as the penguin tilted its head, as if checking she was okay. 20 flooded her as she realized she was safe. 1．A．sudden B．calm C．controlled D．forced 2．A．pressure B．warning C．prediction D．impression 3．A．in a heartbeat B．in a row C．in a hurry D．in a way 4．A．evolution B．consumption C．motion D．progression 5．A．strengthened B．marked C．decorated D．crossed 6．A．for B．among C．against D．of 7．A．considered B．permitted C．willed D．forced 8．A．level B．parallel C．opposite D．equal 9．A．Fortunately B．Reluctantly C．Intentionally D．Unconsciously 10．A．broke out B．broke down C．broke in D．broke through 11．A．loosened B．tightened C．warmed D．relaxed 12．A．hopeful B．desperate C．common D．ordinary 13．A．died B．followed C．returned D．worsened 14．A．declined B．spiderwebbed C．melted D．accumulated 15．A．flexible B．flat C．twisted D．bent 16．A．rushing B．sliding C．inching D．diving 17．A．losing track of B．losing control of C．taking note of D．running out of 18．A．numb B．warm C．smooth D．free 19．A．raise B．wave C．shake D．pull 20．A．Panic B．Relief C．Regret D．Pride Passage 6 Manuela Ribeiro has a healthy addiction. It’s 1 . A few months ago, the 30-year-old teacher decided it was time to put her 2 to good use. She 3 on the website Bookalokal, and now welcomes 4 into her warm Brussels flat twice a week for enjoyable dinner parties. Living far from her native Brazil, she loves making her home a welcoming place for lovers of good food, turning her apartment into a cozy spot where strangers bond over delicious meals. Ribeiro 5 € 35 per person for what is usually a wonderful three-course meal that can last up to three hours. For Ribeiro, it has become a perfect platform for 6 her hobby of buying fresh food from local markets, 7 with new recipes, and 8 relaxing dinner parties that 9 her Brazilian roots into European influences. She enjoys every minute of the preparation — from selecting the juiciest tomatoes to stirring a fragrant pot of feijoada — 10 the time spent with her guests, who often become friends by the end of the evening. “It’s a great opportunity to share my passion for food and to 11 new people from all over the world,” said Ribeiro, her eyes 12 as she talks about the diverse guests she has hosted, from Italian tourists to a young couple from Japan. Sometimes she prepares traditional Brazilian dishes 13 her native home; other times she 14 dinner courses with her favorite Belgian beers to create a special, fusion taste that surprises and delights everyone. The platform has enabled Ribeiro to realize her dream with a great deal of freedom, as 15 to a restaurant where the service is 16 , the menu is known in advance, and the meal is expected to be no 17 . “But it’s also a great 18 , for it can sometimes take days to 19 a single event,” Ribeiro said, laughing as she recalled a recent dinner that required marinating meat for 48 hours and sourcing rare spices from a specialty shop across the city. “This platform is not only 20 for professional cooks, but also for those willing to discover new experiences and enjoy true home cooking.” 1．A．reading B．traveling C．cooking D．teaching 2．A．hobby B．energy C．education D．money 3．A．pick up B．signed up C．set up D．put up 4．A．coworkers B．students C．relatives D．strangers 5．A．pays B．charges C．owes D．raises 6．A．pursuing B．choosing C．discussing D．changing 7．A．passing on B．trying out C．going over D．taking down 8．A．appoint B．display C．throw D．add 9．A．develop B．integrate C．change D．mix 10．A．Rather than B．other than C．as well as D．more than 11．A．hire B．help C．encounter D．train 12．A．shining B．sharpening C．rolling D．dropping 13．A．in addition to B．in return for C．in honor of D．in line with 14．A．replaces B．tastes C．orders D．pairs 15．A．opposed B．related C．subject D．vital 16．A．invaluable B．impersonal C．unsuitable D．unprofessional 17．A．surprise B．end C．need D．problem 18．A．lesson B．pleasure C．success D．challenge 19．A．celebrate B．record C．attend D．organize 20．A．selected B．reserved C．evaluated D．requested Passage 7 In late 2025, the annual bullet screen on Bilibili was announced as “Salute”. It 1 millions of young people to honor ordinary people who light up the world with 2 efforts. I came across one such video by chance, which 3 my view on heroism and left a lasting impression. Many of us used to think heroes are those with superpowers or huge success. We often ignore the common people who keep going silently. But this warm video completely changed my understanding. The video was about an elderly volunteer who 4 a remote cemetery for decades. He kept the place clean, trimmed the grass, and 5 the tombstones for the martyrs. No cameras 6 him, no crowds cheered, and he never expected any 7 . He did all this just out of 8 and memory. At first, I thought it was a small, 9 job. Yet as the video went on, I was struck by his 10 . Every morning he arrived at dawn and 11 until dusk. He refused offers of help, saying he could 12 the task on his own. When asked why he insisted, he simply replied, “They 13 for us. I should do this for them.” His simple words touched millions of viewers. The bullet screens were 14 with “Salute”. I realized that real heroes are not 15 found in legends or headlines. They are ordinary people who choose to 16 when no one is watching. They do the right thing 17 praise or reward. This spirit is what we call 18 — the ability to stand firm and keep going through years. It is a quiet strength that 19 the world. The video didn’t have amazing scenes, but it 20 my heart and taught me what really counts in life. 1．A．reminded B．inspired C．allowed D．promised 2．A．slight B．brave C．constant D．extra 3．A．shaped B．replaced C．balanced D．mixed 4．A．built B．guarded C．visited D．found 5．A．polished B．covered C．painted D．buried 6．A．feared B．followed C．served D．trusted 7．A．profit B．fortune C．recognition D．progress 8．A．curiosity B．pride C．interest D．respect 9．A．dull B．funny C．popular D．formal 10．A．intelligence B．patience C．confidence D．honesty 11．A．rested B．wandered C．worked D．waited 12．A．carry out B．take away C．give up D．put off 13．A．fought B．waited C．applied D．prepared 14．A．covered B．filled C．equipped D．faced 15．A．gradually B．suddenly C．naturally D．usually 16．A．hide B．escape C．persist D．reform 17．A．beyond B．without C．against D．for 18．A．dignity B．grace C．resilience D．wisdom 19．A．supports B．disturbs C．controls D．entertains 20．A．warmed B．hurt C．calmed D．opened Passage 8 For years, Leo worked as a night guard in a quiet museum. His job was 1 , and he often felt invisible, like part of the furniture. His world was one of silence and shadows. One rainy Tuesday, as Leo was making his final 2 , he noticed a small, leather-bound sketchbook left on a bench. He picked it up, intending to hand it to the lost-and-found. However, a quick 3 revealed pages with astonishingly beautiful drawings of the museum’s sculptures, each one 4 with light and life that the cold stone originals seemed to lack. Instead of 5 the book to the office, Leo felt a strange urge to keep it for one night. At home, under his lamp, he 6 through every page. The artist had not only drawn the art but had also 7 little stories next to each piece-a warrior’s homesickness, a goddess’s secret smile. Leo was deeply 8 . For the first time, he saw the museum through someone else’s 9 , and it was magical. The next day, Leo placed the sketchbook back on the same bench, adding a 10 note: “Your art made the statues breathe. Thank you.” He didn’t expect a 11 . A week later, the sketchbook was gone, but in its place was a new drawing. It was a portrait of a night guard, not in uniform, but 12 as a wise guardian, watching over the sleeping art with a kind expression. Beneath it was written: “To the one who sees. You are not part of the 13 . You are its keeper.” This simple 14 transformed Leo’s perspective entirely. He started to 15 small, beautiful details in his nightly rounds—the way moonlight fell on a marble floor, the peaceful expression of a sleeping cherub (小天使). He even began leaving his own short, 16 notes for the mysterious artist, commenting on new drawings that occasionally appeared. This silent 17 became a source of joy for both. Leo no longer felt invisible. He felt 18 , connected to the art and to another soul who saw the world with wonder. He realized that everyone has the 19 to touch others, sometimes without even saying a word. The museum was no longer just a workplace; it had become a world of shared 20 , waiting in the quiet dark. 1．A．routine B．exciting C．adventurous D．unpredictable 2．A．report B．call C．plan D．round 3．A．thought B．glance C．search D．purchase 4．A．filled B．covered C．crowded D．loaded 5．A．registering B．discussing C．delivering D．hiding 6．A．lived B．wrote C．paged D．saw 7．A．printed B．composed C．recalled D．adapted 8．A．moved B．confused C．amused D．shocked 9．A．voice B．hands C．mind D．eyes 10．A．formal B．brief C．urgent D．vague 11．A．reply B．reward C．reminder D．result 12．A．described B．dressed C．trained D．imagined 13．A．furniture B．story C．silence D．history 14．A．advice B．incident C．lesson D．exchange 15．A．ignore B．appreciate C．record D．create 16．A．encouraging B．warning C．explanatory D．professional 17．A．competition B．conversation C．discovery D．game 18．A．relieved B．promoted C．honored D．seen 19．A．right B．dream C．power D．duty 20．A．secrets B．responsibilities C．understanding D．silence Passage 9 “What’s going on, Brooke?” Dianna and Wade Thomas asked their first-grade daughter when they noticed the money in her school lunch account (账户) was 1 . “Some of my friends don’t have enough food money,” Brooke said. So she 2 them to use her account to buy snacks. “How 3 ! How can we help them?” Dianna thought. The Dade City, Florida, parents did some research and 4 that most students at Brooke’s school came from poor families. They qualified (有资格) for free lunch but weren’t able to 5 snacks. That’s where Brooke 6 . “Will those children have enough to 7 when they go home for the weekends?” Dianna and Wade asked each other. “Maybe we can 8 .” Before long, the Thomas family brainstormed ways to 9 students facing food insecurity (无保障) during weekends. 10 by each other’s kindness, they started The Thomas Promise Foundation, which provides weekend food every Friday in Pasco County. At first, the Zephyrhills-based organization 11 one school. The next year, they 12 a few more. The charity’s 13 kept growing, and today, The Thomas Promise serves more than 30 schools. On Fridays, kids go to assigned spots (指定的地点) to 14 their bags. At the start of holiday breaks, kids receive more bags to help them get through the 15 time away from school. Leortha Lloyd, a social worker at a school, said: “We know for sure that The Thomas Promise meal bags make a 16 .” For the Thomas family, it’s a(n) 17 to help others in need. Dianna met one mother who had been receiving bags on a holiday event. The extra food freed up 18 so the woman could take her child to a festival, which she otherwise (要不然) couldn’t 19 . “I really want to thank you,” the mother said. “Now I’m able to do something with my child!” “How crazy that it’s grown from something so 20 ,” says Brooke. “How great the community we live in is!” 1．A．disappearing B．remaining C．exchanged D．raised 2．A．forced B．taught C．allowed D．required 3．A．relaxing B．heartbreaking C．strange D．eye-opening 4．A．discovered B．doubted C．forgot D．hoped 5．A．provide B．make C．prepare D．buy 6．A．put up B．took off C．stepped in D．gave up 7．A．create B．eat C．learn D．share 8．A．win B．understand C．remember D．help 9．A．support B．attract C．introduce D．guide 10．A．Surprised B．Inspired C．Worried D．Relieved 11．A．managed B．formed C．served D．left 12．A．built B．refused C．mixed D．added 13．A．problem B．need C．reach D．cost 14．A．look for B．pick up C．drop off D．deal in 15．A．short B．boring C．meaningful D．difficult 16．A．difference B．decision C．choice D．mistake 17．A．risk B．excuse C．pleasure D．challenge 18．A．space B．money C．time D．memory 19．A．notice B．miss C．wait D．afford 20．A．small B．important C．special D．real Passage 10 I am a businessman. It is universally acknowledged that businessmen should care about their customers. But like anyone 1 you feel affection, customers can also drive you mad.

After a while, she 11 for the way she behaved at the beginning. She had split up with her husband the week before, was living in a flat 12 , and since she’d found it too much to cope with, she’d taken it out on 13 people. That taught me a valuable 14 and I pass it on to the people who 15 in the market. Don’t take it 16 . If a customer is rude or difficult, just think “Maybe she’s had a row with her husband.

At age 10 she knew 1 she was bound to be a writer. But it wasn’t until her mid-forties that she began chasing her childhood 2 . Was it too late? “I kept 3 myself for two years,” Karon said. “I put everything — all my fears, my high expectations, my determination to make a right decision — into the journal.” It took years, but when the 4 came, Karon had no 5 about it. She immediately 6 her house and moved to North Carolina to devote herself to writing with the money. However, she’d never 7 a novel before. It took months of 8 starts before she saw a figure of a teacher walking down the road, who eventually 9 Father Tim, the lead character in her series. At first, she felt she was 10 to write such a novel. With just the lead character and settings in her mind, the 11 was just beginning, but her firm belief in writing kept her 12 . She began writing Father Tim’s story in the local paper. Two years later, she 13 the novel. And it took her another two and a half years to 14 a publisher. Karon’s first book was a surprising hit, which gave her a lot of 15 to continue writing. But Karon wasn’t 16 with her present life and started to chase another career change, which involved her love of art. 17 , she showed no concern about starting over. Her perseverance gave her 18 that it’s never too late for anyone to chase their dream. “Each one of us has a talent. We come to the world with a packed 19 .

The teacher explained, “She may not be 1 what we’re trying to accomplish.” He was 2 saying she didn’t have the 3 , which made me mad because I knew she was smart, just as my father had known about me when I was 4 in school. We had her 5 and found that the troubles she was going through were exactly what I had suffered from — dyslexia (诵读困难症). Just then I was a 6 television writer, and had been awarded Emmy Award for “The Rockford Files.” If I had known earlier that something beyond my 7 could explain why I was a low 8 , I may not have worked so hard in my late 20s and early 30s. I was working for no other reason than to hear people 9 me, because I did 10 in all my courses. I once asked a friend why he always got an A, “How long did you study for this?” He replied, “I didn’t. I just 11 it.” So he must be smarter. “What if I’m not good at anything?” I began to ask. Despite my 12 , I did become successful, and people now say to me, “So you’ve 13 dyslexia.” No, I don’t. I learn to 14 it. I 15 making a call if possible, because I sometimes have to try many times to get the number right. Despite these weaknesses, I view dyslexia as a(n) 16 . Many dyslexics are good at right-brain, abstract thought, and that’s what my kind of creative writing is. I can write quickly, and can get up to 15 pages a day. Writing is my 17 . The real 18 I have for dyslexic children is not they have to 19 in school, but that they will be quitters before they get out of school. Parents have to create 20 for them, whether it’s music, sports or art. You can make your dyslexic child able to say, “Yeah, reading is hard. But I have other pride.” 1．A．content with B．used to C．equal to D．familiar with 2．A．hardly B．actually C．partly D．merely 3．A．independence B．confidence C．preference D．intelligence 4．A．failing B．progressing C．changing D．crying 5．A．informed B．questioned C．tested D．surveyed 6．A．loyal B．successful C．traditional D．typical 7．A．admiration B．appreciation C．consumption D．control 8．A．composer B．achiever C．performer D．observer 9．A．inspire B．call C．praise D．neglect 10．A．actively B．badly C．fast D．well 11．A．glanced at B．stared at C．got rid of D．put up with 12．A．confusion B．effort C．dream D．sacrifice 13．A．overlooked B．confirmed C．overcome D．cured 14．A．keep up with B．make up for C．hold on to D．make use of 15．A．repeat B．enjoy C．risk D．avoid 16．A．adventure B．pleasure C．gift D．punishment 17．A．purpose B．challenge C．contribution D．strength 18．A．fear B．joy C．favor D．respect 19．A．struggle B．apply C．achieve D．accomplish 20．A．surprises B．competitions C．imaginations D．victories Passage 13 I Taught My Student About Scientific Failure As a Ph.D．student, I went through many 1 cycles developing theories that would later prove to be failures because of uncertain experimental results. When I graduated, I was not willing to 2 so many hours away from my young children with so little to show for it. 3 I embraced my love of teaching by working as a lecturer. A decade later, with my kids in school, my scientific 4 came out of hibernation (冬眠状态) and I 5 a position at a liberal arts college (文理学院), where I established my own small lab. In my undergraduate classes, I asked my students to complete lab experiments that were virtually 6 to get interpretable data. But after a few years, I grew 7 with the gap between those picture-perfect experiments and my own research projects. Yes, my students left lab sessions with results, feeling their time had been 8 . However, I worried I was cheating them out of the actual experience of practicing science, which 9 produces data on the first try. I decided to develop a new course that would give our students experience 10 real experiments, ones that had the 11 to fail. I gave the students a collection of papers to read. During group brainstorming sessions, they identified new questions that arose from what had already been done and collectively 12 their own theories. After spending time learning lab methods required to test their theories, they got to work performing their first experiment. On the day of data analysis, I handed them 14 Western blot (免疫印迹法) printouts and asked them to 13 the images and discuss their findings. Most 14 that their blots were correct — that the background bands they saw represented the proteins they had hoped to discover—and immediately jumped to interpreting the data. But I 15 to let them move on. After hours of struggle, one student finally spoke up. “It doesn’t 16 ,” he said. “The bands look the same size, but the proteins should be different sizes.” Terrific! This breakthrough helped his classmates start to look at the results with more 17 eyes. Within minutes, they were filled with ideas about what could have gone 18 . We spent the next two hours covering the blackboard with plans to study the procedures. My students were thinking like scientists — a development no amount of advance planning could have created. Research is messy and full of failed 19 . Trying to protect students from that reality does 20 to them. My students had a hard lesson in scientific failure and how to be resilient in the face of it. It is a lesson I wish I had learned before starting graduate school. 1．A．frustrating B．unforgettable C．demanding D．checkable 2．A．sacrifice B．devote C．invest D．spare 3．A．Besides B．Instead C．Nevertheless D．Otherwise 4．A．curiosity B．generosity C．productivity D．sensitivity 5．A．secured B．offered C．filled D．occupied 6．A．attracted B．guaranteed C．opposed D．restricted 7．A．unavailable B．uncomfortable C．unforgivable D．unsuitable 8．A．well-spent B．fast-paced C．never-ending D．badly-consuming 9．A．constantly B．definitely C．rarely D．usually 10．A．witnessing B．recording C．checking D．performing 11．A．alternative B．intention C．potential D．right 12．A．looked forward to B．came up with C．ran out of D．stayed away from 13．A．look over B．pick out C．search for D．throw away 14．A．doubted B．denied C．assumed D．guessed 15．A．determined B．expected C．hesitated D．refused 16．A．bear risk B．gain access C．make sense D．take effect 17．A．competitive B．imaginative C．negative D．objective 18．A．crazy B．virtual C．wild D．wrong 19．A．attempts B．desires C．promises D．regrets 20．A．benefit B．favor C．harm D．honor Passage 14 I understand why people say experience counts. However, when it comes to finding new solutions to problems, 1 can be an advantage. Not being 2 by conventional thinking frees me up to think differently. I became an engineer 3 . Despite completing a college course to teach nursery school, I later 4 to focus on math. It was a 5 decision to leave teaching and pursue my fast-growing 6 for math. But with some guidance from a university professor, my education took another 7 and I graduated with a degree in engineering. I realized my early lack of experience could be a (n) 8 . Being a newcomer left me 9 to ask “stupid” questions. The answer was 10 to more experienced members of the team. The people surrounding me were happy — once I had 11 the courage — to let me 12 them and learn from them. The team spirit was infectious (有感染力的). My questions were not 13 as stupid by colleagues; 14 they helped me look at problems from a different 15 and consider new approaches. Most inventions begin with a（n） 16 . When our team sets out to invent something new, we discuss the problem and the possible ways to 17 it. It’s a team effort and this is 18 in patent (专利) applications — they represent the team’ s ideas, regardless of who 19 suggested them.

The last time I was there he introduced me by saying: “I want to tell you a story, 1 is about a young man, the son of a horse 2 . When he was a senior, he was asked to write a (n) 3 about what he wanted to do when he 4 . “That night he wrote a long paper 5 his goal of owning a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream 6 great details. He put a great deal of his heart into the project and the next day he 7 it in. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note that 8 , ‘See me after class.’” “The boy went to see the teacher after class and asked, ‘Why did I 9 the paper?’ The teacher said, ‘This is an unrealistic (不现实的) dream 10 a young boy like you. 11 a horse ranch requires 12 money. There’s no way you could ever do it.’ Then the teacher added, ‘If you will rewrite this paper with a 13 realistic goal, I will consider your 14 again.’” “The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his father, a horse trainer, what he should do. His father said, ‘Look, son, you have to 15 your own mind on this. However, I think it is a very important decision for you.’” 16 , after a week, the boy turned in the 17 paper, making no changes at all. He stated. ‘You can keep the F and I’ll keep my dream.’” Monty then turned to me and said, “I tell you this story because you are sitting in my horse ranch.” He added, “The best part of the story is that two years ago that same schoolteacher brought 30 kids to camp out on 18 ranch for a week. When the teacher was leaving, he said, ‘Look, Monty, when I was your teacher, I was a dream stealer. During those years I 19 a lot of kids’ dreams. Fortunately you had enough determination not to give up yours.’” “Don’t let anyone steal your dreams. 20 your heart, no matter what,” Monty at last concluded. 1．A．which B．what C．that D．when 2．A．teacher B．trainer C．worker D．boss 3．A．article B．book C．paper D．dream 4．A．grew up B．brought up C．left out D．made out 5．A．describing B．listing C．getting D．aiming 6．A．of B．in C．to D．by 7．A．handed B．passed C．gave D．put 8．A．wrote B．read C．went D．printed 9．A．pass B．win C．fail D．go 10．A．to B．for C．on D．against 11．A．Buying B．Selling C．Owning D．Owing 12．A．a lot of B．a number of C．a few D．a great many 13．A．least B．best C．less D．more 14．A．grade B．paper C．question D．demand 15．A．make efforts B．end up C．make up D．take in 16．A．Finally B．Equally C．Hopefully D．Luckily 17．A．another B．same C．other D．different 18．A．his B．your C．my D．their 19．A．stole B．gave C．brought D．kept 20．A．Lose B．Follow C．Break D．Give 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2027届高考英语一轮复习（天津专用） 完形填空专练15篇 篇目 文章主题 & 主要内容 Passage 1 热爱绘画的 Sophie 害羞不敢展示作品，参加户外绘画活动得到陌生人鼓励后勇敢分享画作 Passage 2 人生际遇皆有意义，磨难助人成长，劝人珍惜当下、宽容待人、坚守初心 Passage 3 天体物理专业学生实习后发现孤独科研并不适合自己，转向跨学科研究，走上科研科普道路 Passage 4 两位登山冒险家发起公益项目，通过登山为贫困女孩争取教育机会，赋能女性成长 Passage 5 Elaine 在南极追逐企鹅遇险，依靠企鹅指引，从危险的冰裂缝区域脱险 Passage 6 巴西教师利用线上平台在家举办付费家庭晚宴，结识世界各地友人，收获全新体验 Passage 7 B 站年度弹幕 “致敬” 引出老人数十年默默守护烈士墓园的故事，感悟普通人身上的英雄精神 Passage 8 夜班保安偶然捡到一本素描本，通过便条与神秘画家无声交流，走出自我忽视的困境 Passage 9 小女孩 Brooke 分享午餐账户帮助贫困同学，全家由此成立基金会为困难学生提供周末食物 Passage 10 商店老板结合自身经历，分享如何理性对待难缠顾客，学会换位思考 Passage 11 作家 Jan Karon 四十多岁才追寻儿时写作梦想，历经艰辛收获成功，晚年跨界艺术，追梦永远不晚 Passage 12 作者和女儿患有诵读困难症，作者克服学习障碍成为编剧，呼吁家长发掘孩子其他闪光点 Passage 13 高校教师改革实验课程，让本科生体验失败的科学实验，教会学生正视科研失败 Passage 14 工程师分享转行经历，阐述缺乏经验有时反而是创新优势，跳出固有思维更容易提出新思路 Passage 15 Monty Roberts 少年时写下拥有养马场的梦想被老师否定，坚持初心多年后梦想成真 Passage 1 Sophie loved painting ever since she was a little girl, yet she was too shy to show her works to other people. She worried that others would judge her paintings strictly and point out her weaknesses without mercy. 1 for years, she painted only inside her quiet bedroom and kept all her pictures 2 in drawers so that nobody else could see them. Her art teacher, who had discovered her 3 at an early age, kept encouraging her to step out of her 4 zone, but Sophie hesitated all the time because she feared public 5 . One warm spring weekend, when cherry blossoms bloomed all over the city, a local park held a public painting activity 6 to people of all ages. After long painful internal 7 between fear and expectation, Sophie 8 up her courage and took her sketchbook there. She found a quiet corner far away from large 9 and started painting cherry-blossom trees whose pink petals danced softly in the gentle wind. Her hands shook slightly while she 10 her paint brush. She kept looking around nervously, fearing others would 11 over her shoulder and comment on her unfinished work. An elderly gentleman who carried a painting board under his arm stopped beside her and watched silently for several minutes. Sophie’s face burned hot with 12 . She wanted to close her sketchbook at once and 13 from the public eye. To her great 14 , the man gave gentle praise for her special colour choices instead of finding 15 . He did not talk about perfect skills. He told her real beauty lay in personal true feelings rather than 16 skills that only few people could achieve. Gradually Sophie 17 herself and poured more energy into her painting. More passers-by stopped to enjoy her work and shared warm kind comments. That sunny afternoon became an important 18 point for her. Sophie realized there was no need to 19 perfect performance all the time. It was fine to show imperfect work. Bravery was more important than being excellent. From then on, she began to share her paintings online and even joined a small local art club where members communicated 20 about creation. 1．A．Otherwise B．However C．Besides D．Therefore 2．A．hidden B．stored C．locked D．placed 3．A．ability B．gift C．intelligence D．skill 4．A．peaceful B．safety C．private D．comfort 5．A．judgment B．criticism C．comment D．opinion 6．A．reliable B．available C．accessible D．open 7．A．struggle B．conflict C．debate D．fight 8．A．picked B．took C．gathered D．made 9．A．groups B．crowds C．audiences D．visitors 10．A．held B．grasped C．carried D．controlled 11．A．glance B．stare C．peek D．watch 12．A．curiosity B．embarrassment C．anxiety D．disappointment 13．A．hide B．escape C．withdraw D．avoid 14．A．relief B．astonishment C．excitement D．satisfaction 15．A．flaws B．mistakes C．weaknesses D．faults 16．A．flawless B．perfect C．excellent D．professional 17．A．settled B．calmed C．relaxed D．freed 18．A．vital B．changing C．key D．turning 19．A．chase B．pursue C．seek D．hunt 20．A．openly B．freely C．actively D．warmly 【答案】 1．D 2．A 3．B 4．D 5．B 6．D 7．A 8．C 9．B 10．A 11．D 12．C 13．B 14．A 15．D 16．A 17．C 18．D 19．A 20．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了一位热爱绘画却因害羞而不敢展示作品的女孩Sophie，在老师的鼓励下参加公园绘画活动，受到陌生人的赞美后逐渐克服恐惧，学会勇敢分享自己不完美作品的故事。 1．考查副词。句意：因此，多年来，她只在安静的卧室里画画，把所有的画都藏在抽屉里以防他人看见。苏菲从小就热爱绘画，却因羞于示人而将画作藏匿多年。A.

You never know who these people may be, but when you 1 eyes on them, you know at that 2 moment they will affect your life in some 3 way. And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful and unfair 4 , but on reflection you find that without overcoming those 5 you would have never realized your potential, strength, willpower, or heart. Everything happens for a 6 . Nothing happens 7 or by means of good luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and complete stupidity all occur to test the 8 of your soul. Without these small tests, 9 they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. It would be safe and comfortable, but 10 and pointless. The people you meet who affect your life, and the success and downfalls you experience, help to 11 who you are and who you become. Even the 12 experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant (伤心的) and important ones. If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart, 13 them, for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being 14 when you open your heart. If someone loves you, love them back 15 , not only because they love you, but because in a way, they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things. Make every day 16 . Appreciate every moment and take from those moments everything that you possibly can for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people that you have never talked to before, and 17 listen. Let yourself fall in love, break free, and set your sights high. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don’t believe in yourself, it will be hard for others to believe in you. You can make your life 18 you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it with 19 no regrets. Most importantly, if you LOVE someone, tell him or her, for you never know what tomorrow may have 20 . And learn a lesson in life each day that you live. That’s the story of life. 1．A．base B．spend C．lock D．exchange 2．A．Very B．just C．only D．much 3．A．profound B．productive C．peaceful D．precious 4．A．at last B．at first C．at least D．at most 5．A．qualities B．virtues C．motivations D．obstacles 6．A．reason B．excuse C．incident D．complex 7．A．in principle B．on purpose C．by accident D．without hesitation 8．A．challenge B．condition C．limits D．maximum 9．A．whichever B．whenever C．wherever D．whatever 10．A．passionate B．dull C．active D．fragile 11．A．crash B．create C．crack D．criticize 12．A．negative B．past C．delightful D．sensitive 13．A．hate B．ignore C．forgive D．delete 14．A．vivid B．cautious C．easygoing D．serious 15．A．desperately B．gradually C．blindly D．unconditionally 16．A．disappear B．predict C．count D．seize 17．A．similarly B．actually C．differently D．unforgettably 18．A．anything B．everything C．nothing D．something 19．A．temporarily B．permanently C．gratefully D．absolutely 20．A．in future B．in store C．in time D．in shape 【答案】 1．C 2．A 3．A 4．B 5．D 6．A 7．C 8．C 9．D 10．B 11．B 12．A 13．C 14．B 15．D 16．C 17．B 18．A 19．D 20．B 【导语】文章主要讲述人生际遇皆有意义，磨难助人成长，劝人珍惜生活、宽容待人。 1．考查动词。句意：你永远不知道这些人会是谁，但当你与他们对视时，你就在那一刻知道，他们会以某种深刻的方式影响你的人生。A. base以……为基础；B. spend花费；C. lock锁定；D. exchange交换。根据下文“eyes on them”可知，此处是固定短语lock eyes on sb.，意为“盯着某人看，与某人对视”，符合初次遇见这类人的场景。 2．考查形容词。句意同上。A. very恰好的；B. just只是；C. only仅仅；D. much非常。根据上文“at that”和下文“moment”可知，此处是固定短语at that very moment，意为“就在那一刻”，very在此处表示强调，意为“正是，恰好”。 3．考查形容词。句意同上。A. profound深刻的；B. productive多产的；C. peaceful平和的；D. precious珍贵的。根据下文“The people you meet who affect your life”和“If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart, _______ them, for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being”可知，遇见的人会影响你、改变你，他们带来的是深远的人生影响。 4．考查介词短语。句意：有时候发生在你身上的事情起初看似糟糕、痛苦且不公，但反思之后你会发现，倘若没有克服那些困境，你永远无法认清自己的潜能、力量、意志力和本心。A. at last最终；B. at first起初；C. at least至少；D. at most至多。根据后文“on reflection”可知，形成前后转折对比，此处指事情最初的表象。 5．考查名词。句意同上。A. qualities品质；B. virtues美德；C. motivations动力；D. obstacles障碍、困境。根据前文“horrible, painful and unfair”可知，此处指代生活中的磨难与困境。 6．考查名词。句意：万事皆有缘由。A. reason原因；B. excuse借口；C. incident事件；D. complex复杂。根据英文固定谚语Everything happens for a reason“万事皆有因果”可知，此处用reason。 7．考查介词短语。句意：没有什么事情是偶然发生或仅凭好运降临的。A. in principle原则上；B. on purpose故意地；C. by accident偶然地；D. without hesitation毫不犹豫。根据前文“Everything happens for a”可知，万事皆有缘由，没有事情是偶然发生的，与后文没有什么事情是凭好运形成呼应。 8．考查名词。句意：疾病、伤痛、爱意、错失的美好时刻和全然的懵懂，这一切的发生都是为了考验你灵魂的底线与极限。A. challenge挑战；B. condition条件；C. limits极限；D. maximum最大值。根据上文“Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and complete stupidity all occur to test the”可知，这些人生经历的作用是试探你灵魂所能承载的极限边界，帮你认清自身的承受力。 9．考查让步状语从句。句意：无论这些小小的考验是什么，没有了它们，人生就会是一条平坦笔直、却毫无归宿的道路。A. whichever无论哪一个；B. whenever无论何时；C. wherever无论何地；D. whatever无论什么。根据下文“they may be”可知，此处指代前文提到的所有类型的人生考验，不限定具体类别，用whatever作让步状语从句中的表语。 10．考查形容词。句意：它可能是安稳舒适的，却枯燥乏味、毫无意义。A. passionate热情的；B. dull枯燥的；C. active积极的；D. fragile脆弱的。根据下文并列的形容词“pointless”可知，此处为贬义形容词，平顺无波折的人生是枯燥的。 11．考查动词。句意：你遇见的影响你人生的人，以及你经历的成败得失，都有助于塑造当下和未来的你。A. crash坠毁；B. create塑造、造就；C. crack破裂；D. criticize批评。根据下文“who you are and who you become”可知，人生经历与际遇会塑造全新的自己。 12．考查形容词。句意：即便是负面的经历，也值得我们从中学习。A. negative负面的；B. past过去的；C. delightful愉快的；D. sensitive敏感的。根据后文“they are probably the most poignant (伤心的) and important ones.

His job was 1 , and he often felt invisible, like part of the furniture. His world was one of silence and shadows. One rainy Tuesday, as Leo was making his final 2 , he noticed a small, leather-bound sketchbook left on a bench. He picked it up, intending to hand it to the lost-and-found. However, a quick 3 revealed pages with astonishingly beautiful drawings of the museum’s sculptures, each one 4 with light and life that the cold stone originals seemed to lack. Instead of 5 the book to the office, Leo felt a strange urge to keep it for one night. At home, under his lamp, he 6 through every page. The artist had not only drawn the art but had also 7 little stories next to each piece-a warrior’s homesickness, a goddess’s secret smile. Leo was deeply 8 . For the first time, he saw the museum through someone else’s 9 , and it was magical. The next day, Leo placed the sketchbook back on the same bench, adding a 10 note: “Your art made the statues breathe. Thank you.” He didn’t expect a 11 . A week later, the sketchbook was gone, but in its place was a new drawing. It was a portrait of a night guard, not in uniform, but 12 as a wise guardian, watching over the sleeping art with a kind expression. Beneath it was written: “To the one who sees. You are not part of the 13 . You are its keeper.” This simple 14 transformed Leo’s perspective entirely. He started to 15 small, beautiful details in his nightly rounds—the way moonlight fell on a marble floor, the peaceful expression of a sleeping cherub (小天使). He even began leaving his own short, 16 notes for the mysterious artist, commenting on new drawings that occasionally appeared. This silent 17 became a source of joy for both. Leo no longer felt invisible. He felt 18 , connected to the art and to another soul who saw the world with wonder. He realized that everyone has the 19 to touch others, sometimes without even saying a word. The museum was no longer just a workplace; it had become a world of shared 20 , waiting in the quiet dark. 1．A．routine B．exciting C．adventurous D．unpredictable 2．A．report B．call C．plan D．round 3．A．thought B．glance C．search D．purchase 4．A．filled B．covered C．crowded D．loaded 5．A．registering B．discussing C．delivering D．hiding 6．A．lived B．wrote C．paged D．saw 7．A．printed B．composed C．recalled D．adapted 8．A．moved B．confused C．amused D．shocked 9．A．voice B．hands C．mind D．eyes 10．A．formal B．brief C．urgent D．vague 11．A．reply B．reward C．reminder D．result 12．A．described B．dressed C．trained D．imagined 13．A．furniture B．story C．silence D．history 14．A．advice B．incident C．lesson D．exchange 15．A．ignore B．appreciate C．record D．create 16．A．encouraging B．warning C．explanatory D．professional 17．A．competition B．conversation C．discovery D．game 18．A．relieved B．promoted C．honored D．seen 19．A．right B．dream C．power D．duty 20．A．secrets B．responsibilities C．understanding D．silence 【答案】 1．A 2．D 3．B 4．A 5．C 6．C 7．B 8．A 9．D 10．B 11．A 12．B 13．A 14．D 15．B 16．A 17．B 18．D 19．C 20．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述博物馆夜班保安利奥因一本素描本改变心态，收获温暖与归属感的故事。 1．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：他的工作平淡乏味，他常常觉得自己微不足道，就像家具的一部分。A. routine平淡的，例行公事的；B. exciting令人兴奋的；C. adventurous冒险的；D. unpredictable不可预测的。根据下文“felt invisible, like part of the furniture”以及“silence and shadows”可知，这份工作枯燥单调。故选A。 2．考查名词词义辨析。句意：一个下着雨的周二，利奥正在进行最后一轮巡查时，他注意到长凳上落下了一本皮质封面的小素描本。A. report报告；B. call通话；C. plan计划；D. round巡查，巡视。根据上文“For years, Leo worked as a night guard in a quiet museum.”可知，作为夜班保安，工作内容是巡查博物馆。故选D。 3．考查名词词义辨析。句意：然而，快速瞥一眼，里面全是博物馆雕塑的绝美画作。A. thought想法；B. glance一瞥，扫视；C. search搜寻；D. purchase购买。根据前文“intending to hand it to the lost-and-found”可知，他原本打算上交，只是随意快速看了一眼。故选B。 4．考查动词词义辨析。句意：每一幅画都充满了光与生机，这是冰冷的石雕原作所欠缺的。A. filled充满；B. covered覆盖；C. crowded拥挤；D. loaded装载。根据上文“with astonishingly beautiful drawings of the museum’s sculptures”可知，画作赋予雕塑鲜活的生命力。故选A。 5．考查动词词义辨析。句意：利奥没有把本子送到办公室，反而莫名想留一晚。A. registering登记；B. discussing讨论；C. delivering递送，交付；D. hiding隐藏。根据前文“intending to hand it to the lost-and-found”可知，此处指没有将素描本送到失物招领处。故选C。 6．考查动词词义辨析。句意：回到家，在台灯下，他一页页翻看。A. lived居住；B. wrote书写；C. paged翻阅；D. saw看见。根据上文“under his lamp”可知，此处指在台灯下翻阅。故选C。 7．考查动词词义辨析。句意：画家不仅画了艺术品，还在每幅作品旁编写了小故事。A. printed印刷；B. composed创作，编写；C. recalled回忆；D. adapted改编。根据下文“little stories”可知，此处指画家创作小故事。故选B。 8．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：利奥深受触动。A. moved感动的；B. confused困惑的；C. amused逗乐的；D. shocked震惊的。根据后文“it was magical”可知，素描本里的画作和故事让他心生感动。故选A。 9．考查名词词义辨析。句意：第一次，他透过别人的眼睛看待这座博物馆，一切都充满魔力。A. voice声音；B. hands双手；C. mind思想；D. eyes眼睛。根据上文“The artist had not only drawn the art but had also ____ little stories next to each piece-a warrior’s homesickness, a goddess’s secret smile. ”可知，他是通过他人的视角重新认识博物馆，through someone else’s eyes符合语境。故选D。 10．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：第二天，利奥把素描本放回原处，附上了一张简短的便条。A. formal正式的；B. brief 简短的；C. urgent紧急的；D. vague模糊的。根据下文“Your art made the statues breathe.

The teacher explained, “She may not be 1 what we’re trying to accomplish.” He was 2 saying she didn’t have the 3 , which made me mad because I knew she was smart, just as my father had known about me when I was 4 in school. We had her 5 and found that the troubles she was going through were exactly what I had suffered from — dyslexia (诵读困难症). Just then I was a 6 television writer, and had been awarded Emmy Award for “The Rockford Files.” If I had known earlier that something beyond my 7 could explain why I was a low 8 , I may not have worked so hard in my late 20s and early 30s. I was working for no other reason than to hear people 9 me, because I did 10 in all my courses. I once asked a friend why he always got an A, “How long did you study for this?” He replied, “I didn’t. I just 11 it.” So he must be smarter. “What if I’m not good at anything?” I began to ask. Despite my 12 , I did become successful, and people now say to me, “So you’ve 13 dyslexia.” No, I don’t. I learn to 14 it. I 15 making a call if possible, because I sometimes have to try many times to get the number right. Despite these weaknesses, I view dyslexia as a(n) 16 . Many dyslexics are good at right-brain, abstract thought, and that’s what my kind of creative writing is. I can write quickly, and can get up to 15 pages a day. Writing is my 17 . The real 18 I have for dyslexic children is not they have to 19 in school, but that they will be quitters before they get out of school. Parents have to create 20 for them, whether it’s music, sports or art. You can make your dyslexic child able to say, “Yeah, reading is hard.

When I graduated, I was not willing to 2 so many hours away from my young children with so little to show for it. 3 I embraced my love of teaching by working as a lecturer. A decade later, with my kids in school, my scientific 4 came out of hibernation (冬眠状态) and I 5 a position at a liberal arts college (文理学院), where I established my own small lab. In my undergraduate classes, I asked my students to complete lab experiments that were virtually 6 to get interpretable data. But after a few years, I grew 7 with the gap between those picture-perfect experiments and my own research projects. Yes, my students left lab sessions with results, feeling their time had been 8 . However, I worried I was cheating them out of the actual experience of practicing science, which 9 produces data on the first try. I decided to develop a new course that would give our students experience 10 real experiments, ones that had the 11 to fail. I gave the students a collection of papers to read. During group brainstorming sessions, they identified new questions that arose from what had already been done and collectively 12 their own theories. After spending time learning lab methods required to test their theories, they got to work performing their first experiment. On the day of data analysis, I handed them 14 Western blot (免疫印迹法) printouts and asked them to 13 the images and discuss their findings. Most 14 that their blots were correct — that the background bands they saw represented the proteins they had hoped to discover—and immediately jumped to interpreting the data. But I 15 to let them move on. After hours of struggle, one student finally spoke up. “It doesn’t 16 ,” he said. “The bands look the same size, but the proteins should be different sizes.” Terrific! This breakthrough helped his classmates start to look at the results with more 17 eyes. Within minutes, they were filled with ideas about what could have gone 18 . We spent the next two hours covering the blackboard with plans to study the procedures. My students were thinking like scientists — a development no amount of advance planning could have created. Research is messy and full of failed 19 . Trying to protect students from that reality does 20 to them. My students had a hard lesson in scientific failure and how to be resilient in the face of it.

But with some guidance from a university professor, my education took another 7 and I graduated with a degree in engineering. I realized my early lack of experience could be a (n) 8 . Being a newcomer left me 9 to ask “stupid” questions. The answer was 10 to more experienced members of the team. The people surrounding me were happy — once I had 11 the courage — to let me 12 them and learn from them. The team spirit was infectious (有感染力的). My questions were not 13 as stupid by colleagues; 14 they helped me look at problems from a different 15 and consider new approaches. Most inventions begin with a（n） 16 . When our team sets out to invent something new, we discuss the problem and the possible ways to 17 it. It’s a team effort and this is 18 in patent (专利) applications — they represent the team’ s ideas, regardless of who 19 suggested them.
