The power of nature李仕才一、閱讀理解。It may help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech. At some point in every speech, every speaker says something that is not understood exactly as he has planned. Fortunately, such moments are usually not obvious to the listeners. Why? Because the listeners do not know what the speaker plans to say. They hear only what the speaker does say. If you lose your place for a moment, wrongly change the order of a couple of sentences, or forget to pause at a certain point, no one will be any the wiser. When such moments occur, dont worry about them. Just continue as if nothing happened.Even if you do make an obvious mistake during a speech, that doesnt really matter. If you have ever listened to Martin Luther Kings famous speech I Have a Dream, you may notice that he stumbles (結(jié)巴)over his words twice during the speech. Most likely, however, you dont remember. Why? Because you were fixing your attention on his message rather than on his way of speech-making.People care a lot about making a mistake in a speech because they regard speech-making as a kind of performance rather than as an act of communication. They feel the listeners are like judges in an ice-skating competition. But, in fact, the listeners are not looking for a perfect performance. They are looking for a well-thought-out speech that expresses the speakers ideas clearly and directly. Sometimes a mistake or two can actually increase a speakers attractiveness by making him more human.As you work on your speech, dont worry about being perfect. Once you free your mind of this, you will find it much easier to give your speech freely.1.The underlined part in the first paragraph means that no one will .A.be smarter than youB. know what you are talking aboutC.do better than youD. notice your mistakes2.You dont remember obvious mistakes in a speech because .A. you find the way of speech-making more importantB. you dont fully understand the speechC. you dont know what the speaker plans to sayD. your attention is on the content3.From the last two paragraphs, the author means that .A. giving a speech is like giving a performanceB. the listeners should pay more attention to how a speech is madeC.one or two mistakes in a speech may not be bad。D. the more mistakes a speaker makes, the more attractive he will be4.What would be the best title for the passage?A.

I was in college _1_ my father passed away. I had another year in front of me in order to be called _2_ graduate. The trouble was that I could not concentrate _3_ my studies anymore. Whenever I tried to open my books to study, tears _4_ block my view. I just wanted to quit and stay at home to help my mother deal with the sorrow.At this time, I received his help through my father's personal financial advisor. One evening, he visited us and asked about my studies. I told him I could not continue my college because I did not want to study anymore. He reminded me how my father _5_ (send) me to the best college in our city. Did I want to fulfill my father's dream _6_ did I want to be called a failure? I wept, _7_ (say) I did want to do what my dad wanted but I just couldn't study. He gave me all the _8_ (encourage) I needed to be able to carry on. His calming, gentle voice did wonders and I decided to study _9_ (far) and complete my graduation. I still remember this gentleman _10_ came to my rescue and helped me make the right decision.1_ 2._ 3._ 4._ 5._ 6._ 7._ 8._ 9._ 10._ 篇章導讀：本文是一篇記敘文。在作者最頹廢的時候，一位好心人給他指明了前進的道路，幫助他從失去父親的痛苦中走出來，繼續(xù)完成學業(yè)。1when考查狀語從句的連接詞。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，空處引導時間狀語從句，故用when，意為“當時候”。2a考查冠詞。此處表泛指，表示“一名畢業(yè)生”，故用不定冠詞a。3on考查介詞。由句中的“concentrate”可知，應(yīng)填介詞on，構(gòu)成動詞短語concentrate on . “專心于，把思想集中于”。4would考查情態(tài)動詞。根據(jù)語境，此處指“每當我試圖打開書學習的時候，眼淚就會模糊我的視線”。would“總會”符合語境。5had sent考查動詞的時態(tài)。send是發(fā)生在reminded之前的動作，表示“過去的過去”，故用過去完成時。6or考查連詞。or在句中連接了兩個疑問句，前后兩個句子的意義相反，因此指在兩者之間的選擇。7saying考查非謂語動詞?！皊aying從句”在句中作伴隨狀語。主語I與say是邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系，且say和句子謂語wept表示的動作幾乎同時發(fā)生，因此用現(xiàn)在分詞。8encouragement考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。根據(jù)語境及空前的“the”可知，應(yīng)用encourage的名詞形式encouragement。9further考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。由本句中的“complete my graduation”可知，作者會繼續(xù)學習下去，應(yīng)填表抽象意義的further “更進一步地”。 10who/that考查定語從句的引導詞?？仗幰龑ФㄕZ從句，且在從句中作主語，先行詞是this gentleman，故用who/that。三、完形填空。閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出可能填入空白處的最佳選項。That was a sunny day.My father and I were on the way _1_ my uncle's home.People on the street were walking leisurely and chatting _2_ ，while my father was walking in a hurry.I tried my best to _3_ him.But I was still left behind.I could not understand why he _4_ so fast.Due to the fast speed，I lost my _5_ and was completely with sweat.Somehow，I began to be angry at him.He always did not think about my_6_.“Why do you walk so fast? Don't you see me behind you？”I said _7_.“You are always like this.Why must you _8_ so loudly？”he said and his face got red right away.In fact，I deliberately spoke loudly and made him angry.“It is your _9_ ！”I shouted at him immediately.“You always like to _10_ others！”he cried out.This made me fall into a rage(憤怒)Then we _11_ on the street.Whatever he said，I quickly answered back.At that time，I was like a wild beast，losing my temper.Many people stopped to look at us.I was so _12_ that I could feel my face burning，for I saw some people _13_ me，which made me lose face.I touched my face _14_ glared at him.“I will never talk to him，”I said to myself angrily._15_ could make people forget everything that your beloved had done for you.When I went to college，I still hated him.I did not say anything to him，_16_ I were not his daughter.Always I pretended to complain that I was too_17_ when he called me.However，it was his tears from the worn­out_18_ that made me feel guilty when we met.He had given me everything he had，but I could not._19_ ，I realized that I should not hate him.Now I begin to phone him and ask him to take care of himself.Although sometimes parents will _20_ wrong，they just hope we can be better.1A.at BtoCfor Dof2A.perfectly BeagerlyCanxiously Denjoyably3A.make fun of Bcatch up withCmake way for Dget rid of4A.walked BranCstarted Dtrained5A.temper BconfidenceCbreath Dbalance6A.beliefs BbehaviorCfeelings Drequests7A.calmly BfrequentlyCsoftly Dloudly8A.tell BclaimCread Dspeak9A.fault BcrueltyCorigin Dbusiness10A.enjoy BadmireCblame Dabuse11A.fought BbargainedCconsulted Dquarreled12A.alarmed BafraidCashamed Damazed13A.asking for Blaughing atCwaiting for Daiming at14A.and BsoCbut Dor15A.Anger BSenseCCare DShame16A.in case Bas ifCunless Dafter17A.wrong BcrazyCbusy Dinnocent18A.arm BfaceChead Dbody19A.Naturally BOccasionallyCObviously DGradually20A.do BgiveCfind Dkeep【解題導語】作者因一件小事和父親在大街上爭吵，致使自己顏面盡失，于是下定決心不再與父親說話。但隨著歲月的流逝，作者意識到是憤怒讓自己忘記了自己最愛的人為自己所做的一切，于是逐漸改變了自己對父親的態(tài)度。1B根據(jù)語境可知，作者與父親是在去叔叔家的路上。on the way to.意為“在去的路上”，符合語境。故選B項。2D該句中while表示對比，意為“然而”。此處是說作者和父親走得比較匆忙，而街上的其他人走得比較悠閑，邊走邊開心地(enjoyably)聊著天。故選D項。perfectly意為“完美地”；eagerly意為“急切地”；anxiously意為“焦慮地”。3B從下文的I was still left behind可知，父親走得很快，作者試圖趕上他，但是仍然被落在了后面。catch up with意為“趕上”，符合語境。故選B項。make fun of意為“取笑”；make way for意為“給讓路”；get rid of意為“擺脫；除去”。4A根據(jù)第二段開頭的Why do you walk so fast？可知，此處指作者不知道為什么父親走(walked)得那么快。故選A項。5C根據(jù)空后的completely with sweat可知，由于走得太快，作者氣喘吁吁、汗流浹背。lose one's breath意為“喘不過氣來”，符合語境。故選C項。temper意為“脾氣”；confidence意為“信心”；balance意為“平衡”。6C根據(jù)上文中的I began to be angry at him可知，作者對父親很生氣，認為他根本不考慮作者的感受(feelings)。故選C項。belief意為“信念”；behavior意為“行為；舉止”；request意為“請求；要求”。7D上文提到作者很生氣，所以說話的聲音應(yīng)該是很大的。根據(jù)第8空后的so loudly也可知答案。故選D項。calmly意為“平靜地”； frequently意為“頻繁地”；softly意為“溫柔地”。8D根據(jù)下文的In fact，I deliberately spoke loudly and.可知，此處指父親埋怨作者說話聲音大。故選D項。9A作者責怪父親走太快，自己跟不上，因此，此處指作者認為這都是父親的過錯(fault)。故選A項。cruelty意為“殘忍”；origin意為“起源”；business意為“事情；商業(yè)”。10C作者在埋怨父親，而此時父親也非常生氣。因此，父親在說作者總是責備(blame)別人。故選C項。enjoy意為“喜歡”；admire意為“欣賞”；abuse意為“虐待；濫用”。11D根據(jù)下文Whatever he said，I quickly answered back.At that time, I was like a wild beast，losing my temper.可知，作者大發(fā)脾氣，與父親在大街上吵了起來，所以選quarreled，意為“爭吵”。fight意為“打架”；bargain意為“討價還價”；consult意為“咨詢”。12C根據(jù)空后的I could feel my face burning可知，和父親吵架引來很多路人駐足觀看，作者感覺自己的臉滾燙，因此可推斷，作者感到羞愧(ashamed)。alarmed意為“擔憂的；恐慌的”；afraid意為“害怕的”；amazed意為“驚奇的”。13B由空后的made me lose face可知，作者覺得很丟人，因為看到路人在嘲笑她。laugh at意為“嘲笑”，符合語境。故選B項。ask for意為“請求；要求”；wait for意為“等待”；aim at意為“針對；以為目標”。14A句意為：我摸了摸我的臉，怒視著他。touched和glared是作者先后做的兩個并列的動作，所以用and連接。15A文中反復(fù)提到angry，通過對與父親吵架的描述可知，此處指生氣能讓人忘記你所愛的人為你做的一切。故選A項。16B設(shè)空后的I were not his daughter為虛擬語氣，作者因怒生恨，吵架后不與父親說話，就好像自己不是父親的女兒似的。as if意為“好像”，符合語境。in case意為“以防”；unless意為“除非”；after意為“在之后”。17C父親每次打電話時，作者總是抱怨太忙。busy意為“忙碌的”，符合語境。故選C項。wrong意為“錯誤的”；crazy意為“瘋狂的”；innocent意為“無辜的”。18B眼淚應(yīng)該是從臉上流下來，所以選face。句意為：但是，當我們見面時，父親那飽經(jīng)滄桑的臉上流下的淚水使我感到內(nèi)疚。19D根據(jù)空后的I realized that I should not hate him可知，作者越來越理解父親，認識到不應(yīng)該再恨父親，此處強調(diào)的是一個心理逐漸變化的過程。gradually意為“慢慢地；逐漸地”，符合語境。故選D項。naturally意為“自然地”occasionally意為“偶然”；obviously意為“明顯地”。20A盡管有時候父母會做錯事，但是他們希望我們能更好。此處指可能會做錯事，所以選A項。四、短文改錯。Today is Sunday. I was very happy because a special experience. On my way home from school, I find a little dog on the roadside. It was so lovely and poor that I liked it immediate. But it was a little dirty and it seemed that it couldn't see something. I took it home. Besides, my mother didn't like it. She asked me to give a dog to someone else. At that time, got an idea, Dad said, “You can send it to your grandma. She always like animals.” I was very happy. My father and I took the little dog to my grandma's. She was so surprising to see the little poor dog. And she gave to us a promise that she would look after it well. I was very happy because I saved a little dog.答案：Today is Sunday.
