DblessedA解析：shape塑造；promote促進(jìn)；train訓(xùn)練；bless賜福。根據(jù)上下文意，他把“我”塑造成了現(xiàn)在的“我”，所以選項(xiàng)比較來看，只能選“shape”塑造。故選A。2A.like BaboutCfrom DworthD解析：like像一樣；about關(guān)于；from來自；worth值得。“that anything having takes a lot of hard work”與前面的about短語共同作teach的賓語，此從句中“anything having”作takes的主語，句意為“任何值得擁有的東西都要花費(fèi)一番努力”，這里選用“worth值得”更好。故選D。3A.directedBtaught Cencouraged DimprovedB解析：direct指導(dǎo)；teach教；encourage鼓勵(lì)；improve提高，改善。根據(jù)文章第一段，Uncle Bruce一直在教“我”做人，這里是說“他所教給我最重要的事情是如何思考”，根據(jù)前文暗示，選用teach。故選B。4A.so that Beven if Cas if Dnow thatB解析：so that以至于；even if即使；as if好像；now that既然。結(jié)合上下文，選項(xiàng)中只有“即使”更符合文意。故選B。5A.wants Bsupports Cpromises DadvisesC解析：want想要；support支持；promise許諾；advise建議。根據(jù)下一句暗示，此句理解為“言出必行”，所以選項(xiàng)中“promise承諾”更合適。故選C。6A.matter Binsist CsucceedDhappenD解析：matter重要；insist要求；succeed成功；happen發(fā)生，碰巧。結(jié)合文章上下文，此空前面it指代Uncle Bruce承諾過的事，結(jié)合前文“言出必行”，所以選happen更合適。易錯(cuò)選insist，如果選insist，需要將前面的it改為he。故選D。7A.sticks to Bpoints at Clistens to Dcomes atC解析：stick to堅(jiān)持；point at指著；listen to聽；come at襲擊。根據(jù)文章基調(diào)，作者在全文透露出Uncle Bruce在各個(gè)方面都很好，對自己的影響也很大，此句中又有also，可以推測本句也是在夸uncle，四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中只有“l(fā)isten to傾聽”是褒義且符合語境，故選C。8A.experiences Bdiseases Cdrills DadaptationsA解析：experience經(jīng)歷；disease疾??；drill訓(xùn)練；adaptation改編。該句講的是經(jīng)歷，所以experience更恰當(dāng)。故選A。9A.materially Bnegatively Cbarely DpositivelyB解析：materially實(shí)質(zhì)地；negatively消極地；barely僅僅；positively積極地。根據(jù)上文的連詞but可知下句的意思相反，所以選“negatively消極地”。故選B。10A.tendencies Bstatistics Creferences DmisfortunesD解析：tendency偏好；statistic數(shù)據(jù)；reference參考；misfortune霉運(yùn)。前文的terrible experiences和alcoholand drugrelated都暗示了，這是uncle所遇到的不幸的故事，所以選擇D。11A.sink Btest Charm DexploitC解析：sink下沉；test測試；harm傷害；exploit開發(fā)，利用。文章中“我對做任何傷害我及我的朋友的事情不感興趣”所以選“harm傷害”。故選C。12A.make Btake Cbring DseizeA解析：make制造；take帶走；bring帶來；seize抓住。根據(jù)文章句意“他是唯一一個(gè)相信我能夠成功到達(dá)West Point的人”，且make it可以表示“成功做成某事”。故選A。13A.management Baccess Cpatent DpowerD解析：management管理；access接近；patent專利權(quán)；power權(quán)力，力量。結(jié)合上下文及常用表達(dá)“在他能力范圍之內(nèi)”所以選擇“power 力量”更合適。故選D。14A.everybody Beverything Cnobody DnothingB解析：everybody每個(gè)人；everything每件事情；nobody沒有人；nothing什么也沒有。本句譯為“他是我想成為的一切(我想成為跟他一樣的人)”，側(cè)重“我”想成為uncle那樣具有一切良好品質(zhì)的人，而不是“我”成為別人，所以選B而非A。故選B。15A.secure Bshaky Cproper DmessyA解析：secure有保障的；shaky晃動(dòng)的；proper恰當(dāng)?shù)?；messy混亂的。根據(jù)下文“他回報(bào)社區(qū)”因此判斷他經(jīng)濟(jì)上是有保障的，所以選A。16A.praise Brepay Cpresent DrechargeB解析：praise表揚(yáng)；repay回報(bào)；present呈現(xiàn)；recharge再收費(fèi)。結(jié)合全文來看，作者對Bruce很感激，所以這里是在表達(dá)“回報(bào)”之意。故選B。17A.strength Bhonesty Copinion DstandardC解析：strength力氣；honesty誠實(shí)；opinion意見；standard水平。從上下文來看，既然uncle在用他的良好習(xí)慣和品質(zhì)影響著“我”，想必他的觀點(diǎn)也會(huì)影響“我”對事物的看法，這里應(yīng)選“opinion意見”。故選C。18A.orBeither Cnor DsoC解析：or或者；either或者；nor也不；so因此，所以。上文中“never”表否定，因此下文應(yīng)用“nor”來搭配使用。故選C。19A.saying Bproving Cexpressing DdemandingA解析：say說；prove證明；express表達(dá)；demand要求。根據(jù)文意“我不是說他很完美”。故選A。20A.travelling
