  I teach biology at UNLV three times per week.Last Monday, at the beginning of class, I cheerfully asked my   1   how their weekend had been.One young man said that his weekend had not been so   2  .He had his wisdom teeth removed.Then he went on to ask me why I always seemed to be so   3  

  His question   4   me of something I'd read somewhere before:“Every morning when you get up, you have a   5   about how you want to deal with life that day,” I said.“I choose to be cheerful.”

  “Let me give you an example,” I continued,   6   all sixty students in the class.“In   7   to teaching here at UNLV, I also teach out at a   8   in Henderson, 17 miles down the highway from where I live.One day a few weeks ago I drove those 17 miles to Henderson.I   9   the highway and turned onto College Drive.I only had to drive another quarter mile down the road to the college.But just then my car   10  .I tried to start it again, but the   11   wouldn't work.  12   I turned my flashers on, took my books, and   13   down the road to the college.”

  “As soon as I got there, I called and   14   for a tow truck to meet me at my car after   15  .The secretary there asked me what had happened.“This is my   16   day,” I replied, smiling.

  She was   17  .“What do you mean?”

  “My car could have broken down anywhere along the highway.It didn't.”I replied.  18  , it broke down in the perfect place:off the highway,   19   walking distance of here.I'm still a ble to teach my class, and I've been able to arrange for the tow truck to meet me after class.If my car was meant to break down today, it couldn't have been arranged in a more convenient   20  .”

  I ended my story.In spite of the early hour, no one in my class seemed to be asleep.Somehow, my story had touched them.

答案:1.D;2.B;3.A;4.C;5.B;6.C;7.D;8.B;9.A;10.B;11.D;12.C;13.A;14.D;15.A;16.D;17.C;18.B;19.A;20.C;
解析:

(1)

考查名詞。根據(jù)第1段首句I taught biology at UNLV…說明作者是老師,當(dāng)然是問學(xué)生假期過得怎樣了。

(2)

考查形容詞。根據(jù)下句He had his wisdom teeth removed。這當(dāng)然是令他感到不快,因此他認(rèn)為假期過得的不夠好。

(3)

考查形容詞。根據(jù)上文I cheerfully asked my students…可知這里也該填cheerful才符合上下文。

(4)

考查動詞。根據(jù)下文…me of something…可知這里考查了一個短語:remind sb of…“使……想起”,因此選擇reminded。

(5)

考查名詞。根據(jù)下文I choose to be cheerful.可推出前面應(yīng)該選擇choice。

(6)

考查動詞。這句意思是“我對班上60名學(xué)生講”,showing意思是“給某人看……”,demanding“要求”,commanding“命令”都不符合句意,只有選擇addressing,在這里表示“給某人講”的意思。

(7)

考查名詞。這里是指“除了在UNLV教書外,我還……”,in addition to是一個詞組,意思是“除……以外”,相當(dāng)于besides,在這為最佳選項。其他詞匯都沒有這種搭配。

(8)

考查名詞。根據(jù)下文I only had to drive another quarter mile down the road to the college,說明作者去的就是這所大學(xué)。

(9)

難?疾閯釉~。根據(jù)下文…and turned into College Drive.,既然是轉(zhuǎn)入另一條街道,就必須先離開高速公路,因此可排除entered,found“發(fā)現(xiàn)”和crossed“橫過”肯定也不對,只有選擇exited“離開,退出”。

(10)

難?疾閯釉~。根據(jù)下句I tried to start it again, but the…wouldn't work.可知是車壞了。因此選擇died。broken應(yīng)該在后面加down才能表示“壞,拋錨”,ended和finished都只有“結(jié)束”的意思。

(11)

考查名詞。根據(jù)上句started it again可知只能選擇engine“引擎,馬達”,因為只有引擎才能被啟動。

(12)

考查連詞。因為車子無法啟動,所以我準(zhǔn)備徒步行走。根據(jù)前后聯(lián)系,選擇so,表示因果關(guān)系比較合適。

(13)

考查動詞。打開手電筒,拿起書本,我朝學(xué)校的方向走去。marched可表示“進發(fā),開赴”的意思。

(14)

考查動詞。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第2段…and I've been able to arrange for the tow truck…可知此處正是相同的表達。

(15)

考查名詞。這里應(yīng)該是指下課后讓那輛拖車的卡車去接我。選擇class符合上下文。

(16)

考查形容詞。根據(jù)下文I replied, smiling.可知作者心情很好,沒有把這看做是倒霉的一天,而是幸運的一天。

(17)

考查形容詞。遇到這種事是不會有人說幸運的,因此那位秘書很困惑。

(18)

考查副詞。根據(jù)句子的前后聯(lián)系可知這里表示的是轉(zhuǎn)折,“車子沒有在高速公路上壞,而是在最適當(dāng)?shù)牡胤綁摹,選擇instead符合結(jié)構(gòu)的要求。

(19)

考查介詞。這里是指“在徒步能趕到目的地的距離之內(nèi)”,選擇within表示“在……范圍內(nèi)”。

(20)

  解析:難?疾槊~。根據(jù)意思可知這里是表示“以一種再也不能更舒服的方式安排了”,“以……方式”可用in…way,這是固定搭配。in…order“以……順序”,in…need“需要”,in situation“處于……狀態(tài)”都不符合含義。

  文章大意:本文作者是一個永遠快樂的人,在他的字典里似乎找不著“不開心”這個字眼。在去講座的路上車半路拋錨,而他卻認(rèn)為是“走運”:車沒有壞在高速公路上而是在離目的地不遠處的地方,他還能徒步去趕著上課,這令他感到開心!

This was one of my experiences    1   .When I was in my 30s,I was working for a large international company which had its head office in London. I was working in the   2   department.

The company had a training center which was just outside London. Different courses were held there throughout    3    and I    4    go on one training course a year. These usually started    5    a Sunday evening and lasted six days.

Once I was    6    a week’s training course with about forty    7    sales people. I was in the bar on the Friday evening and suddenly a woman who was    8    behind the bar asked me a curious question.“I hope you don’t    9   my asking,” she said, “but I’ve been     10    about it all week. Have you got a sister   11     Mary?” The woman’s name was June. And she used to do various jobs at the training center’s worked in the office, she organized all the food and drink for the center and she worked in the bar at lunch time and in the evening.

My answer    12    June’s question was “Yes”,and June said,“I thought    13   .I met her last September when she was organizing a course here.” At that time, my sister was working for   14    company but in a different part of the country. That was    15    she came to be at the training center.
      16    surprised me was how June guessed we were brother and sister. Three things made it even more   17    .First, she had met my sister six months before she met me. Second, they have about sixty new people every week at the training center’s about one thousand five hundred people had    18    the center in those six months. And    19   ,my sister is married, so she doesn’t have the same family name as me.
