模塊5 Unit 1 Getting along with others一、閱讀理解。One time a young man，who hoped to study law，wrote to Lincoln for advice，and Lincoln replied，“If you are resolutely determined to make a lawyer of yourself，the thing is more than half done already.Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other one thing.”Lincoln knew.He had gone through it all.He had never，in his entire life，had more than a total of one years schooling.And books？Lincoln once said he had walked to borrow every book within fifty miles of his home.A fire was usually kept going all night in the small house and he read by the light of it.He walked twenty or thirty miles to hear a speaker and, returning home，he practiced his talks everywherein the fields，in the woods，before the crowds.He joined several societies and practiced speaking on the topics of the day.A lack of confidence always troubled him.In the presence of women he was shy and dumb.Even when he was in love with Mary Todd，he used to sit there，nervous and silent，unable to find words，listening while she did the talking.Yet that was the man who，by practice and home study，made himself into the speaker who debated with the famous speaker Douglas！That was the man who，in the Gettysburg Address，rose to the heights of eloquence(雄辯)that have seldom been achieved in all of human history.Small wonder that，speaking of his own great barriers and painful struggle，he wrote，“If you are resolutely determined to make a lawyer of yourself，the thing is more than half done already.”1What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?AEarning a fortune.BMaking a living.CAsking for advice. DBeing a lawyer.2What is the key point of the fourth paragraph?ALincolns courage.BLincolns position.CLincolns progress.DLincolns eloquence.3What is the most vital spirit reflected in Lincolns story above?ABelieving in oneself.BKeeping on practicing hard.COvering difficulties.DSticking to ones determination.【解題導(dǎo)語】本文主要通過講述林肯的勵志故事啟迪讀者：無論做什么，只要堅定決心，那就成功了一半以上。【難句分析】That was the man who，in the Gettysburg Address，rose to the heights of eloquence(雄辯)that have seldom been achieved in all of human history.分析：本句是一個復(fù)合句。第二個that引導(dǎo)定語從句，在從句中作主語，修飾先行詞the heights of eloquence。譯文：也就是這個人，在葛底斯堡演說中，達(dá)到了雄辯的極高水平，這樣的水平在整個人類歷史上都很少有人達(dá)到。1D考查代詞指代。根據(jù)第一段中林肯的話“If you are resolutely determined to make a lawyer of yourself, the thing is more than half done already”，并結(jié)合年輕人就學(xué)法律來咨詢林肯這一內(nèi)容可推知，林肯之前有做律師的經(jīng)歷，并且他為成為律師付出了很大的努力。2C考查段落大意。根據(jù)第四段的內(nèi)容可知，林肯從一個缺乏自信、異常害羞的人到最終成為整個人類歷史上少有的雄辯的演說家。第四段主要敘述了這樣的巨大變化，即林肯的進(jìn)步，故選C。3D考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段和最后一段的呼應(yīng)，以及這兩段中的關(guān)鍵詞“resolutely determined”可推知，林肯的故事所反映出的最重要的精神是堅持自己的決心，故選D。二、單項填空1.Did he _ taking away your digital camera on the desk?No. Perhaps it wasnt stolen by him.A. receive B. admit C. permit D. accept【答案】B【解析】句意： “他承認(rèn)從桌子上拿走你的數(shù)碼相機(jī)了嗎？” “沒有?；蛟S不是他偷的。 ”receive 接收，收到；admit 承認(rèn)，允許進(jìn)入； permit 允許，許可；accept 接受。2.The phrase “new normal”, one of the top 10 new expressions of 2014, conveyed the idea that China needs to_ the quality of its economic development and adapt to a new situation.A. meet with B. put off C. give away D. focus on【答案】D【解析】focus on 集中注意力于；meet with 符合，遭受；put off 推遲，脫去；give away 放棄(機(jī)會)；泄露(秘密等)，分發(fā)，出賣。句意：“新常態(tài)”，2014 年十大新詞匯之一，傳遞了這樣的理念，中國必須注重經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展的質(zhì)量和適應(yīng)新的形勢。3.The media made different remarks _ Malaysian Airlines MH370 Flight recently.A. on B. for C. of D. in【答案】A【解析】句意：最近媒體對馬航 MH370 有不同的評價。這里使用了詞組 make different remarks on 對做出不同的評價。4.Gun control is a subject _ Americans have argued for a long time.A. of which B. with which C. about which D. into which【答案】C【解析】先行詞是 Gun control, 指物，關(guān)系詞在從句中做介詞的賓語，介詞前置，介詞與從句動詞構(gòu)成搭配 argue about sth。句意：槍支管理是美國人長期爭論的一個話題。5.I _ you for my behaviour yesterday and please accept my sincere apology, or I will be guilty.A. betrayed B. forgave C. apologized to D. satisfied with【答案】B【解析】betray 出賣，背叛；forgive 原諒，寬?。籥pologize 道歉；satisfy 滿足。句意：我因昨天的行為向你道歉，請接受我真誠的歉意，否則我會內(nèi)疚的。6.Iris is always kind and _ to the suffering of others.No wonder she chooses to be a relief worker.A. allergic B. immune C. relevant D. sensitive【答案】D【解析】allergic 過敏的，過敏癥的，對極討厭的；immune 免疫的，有免疫力的，不受影響的；relevant有關(guān)的，中肯的，相關(guān)聯(lián)的；sensitive 敏感的，be sensitive to 對敏感的。句意： “艾麗斯對別人的苦難總是善良和敏感的。 ” “難怪她選擇去做救援人員。 ”7.When interviewed, he said to the Global Times, “Unlike political parties in the West, the CPC, a pioneering party,is _ to wholeheartedly serving the people.”A. related B. accustomed C. attached D. mitted【答案】D【解析】be related to 與有關(guān)系；be accustomed to(doing )sth.習(xí)慣于(做)某事；be attached to 附屬于；be mitted to 獻(xiàn)身于，致力于。句意：接受采訪時，他對環(huán)球時報說： “不同于西方的政黨，中國共產(chǎn)黨是開創(chuàng)性的黨，是全心全意致力于為人民服務(wù)的黨。 ”8.It is a golden rule in international trade that if you export nothing but raw materials, youre at the _ ofworld prices.A. risk B. expense C. mercy D.
