Have you ever regretted doing something you shouldn't have done or something you didn't do which you should have? At one time or another we probably all have.There's no __51in getting depressed about it now—it's no __52 crying overspilt(溢出的)milk.However,there may be some gain in thinking about exactly what happened and why __53  we might be able to draw some conclusions for the future.
One thing we all do now and again is to lose our __54 with a friend or close relative.The odd thing is that we more often display great __55 towards someone we are fond of than towards __56 .The explanation may be that we see friends and relatives as a kind of safety net, an opportunity to __57 a bit of steam in a safe environment,while the consequences (后果)of __58   a stranger could be far more serious.
Being honest is usually thought of as a virtue (美德) and undoubtedly this is the __59  .On the other hand,we have all experienced occasions when we have spoken our minds to someone,telling them exactly what we feel,and then have found ourselves filled with feelings of __60 .Perhaps we should have kept our mouths shut?
51. A. reason        B. purpose      C. point          D. result 
52. A. use           B. help         C. value          D. benefit 
53. A. so            B. because      C. but            D. though 
54. A. mind          B. memory       C. manner         D. temper

51---60    CABDA   ADBBD  

51.point的意思是“意義，目的，用途”。There's no point in doing sth.的意思是“做某事毫無意義�！贝鸢笧镃。
52.it's no use crying over spilt milk是一個諺語，意思是“為溢出的牛奶而哭泣是沒有用的�！眎t是形式主語，動名詞短語是真正的主語。答案為A。 
53.由于空白緊接在why的后面，增加了試題的難度。why引導(dǎo)的是賓語從句，后面省略了it happened because引導(dǎo)的是原因狀語從句。這句話的意思是“然而，在準確地考慮發(fā)生了什么和為什么發(fā)生這些事之后我們會有一些收獲，因為，我們可以在將來引以為戒。”正確地分析句子的結(jié)構(gòu)和意思可以幫助我們作出正確的選擇。答案為B。
54.這是一個難度系數(shù)比較大的題目。上下文幾乎沒有提供任何線索，并且，是否作對這道題
目對下面幾道題目的選擇有直接的影響。lose和所給的名詞搭配：lose one's mind的意思
是“失去理智，瘋了”；lose one's temper的意思是“發(fā)脾氣”；lose one's memory的意思是“失去記憶”。根據(jù)它們含義的區(qū)別和下文的內(nèi)容可以確定，選擇temper比較合適。答案為D。 
55.如果正確地做出上一道題，做這道題就不困難了。display great anger是“大發(fā)雷霆”。答案為A。 
56.這段中的a stranger為作出正確選擇提供了線索。另外，選項B(friends)、C(relatives)和D(colleagues)都是熟悉的人，與選項A(strangers)相對。奇怪的是，我們對自己喜愛的人大發(fā)雷霆的次數(shù)要比對陌生人大發(fā)雷霆的次數(shù)多。答案為A。 
57.let off a bit of steam是一種比喻，意思是“發(fā)泄”。答案為D。
58.insulting的意思是“侮辱，對……無禮”。對別人大發(fā)雷霆是對別人的一種無禮行為。這句話的意思是“可以這樣解釋，我們把朋友和親戚當作我們的一種安全網(wǎng)，為我們提供了一種在安全的環(huán)境中發(fā)泄自己感情的機會，而對陌生人無禮的結(jié)果要嚴重多了�！盇.inviting“邀請”；C.speaking to“對……說”；D.believing in“信任”，均不正確。答案為B。 
59.case的意思是“事實”。誠實一般被認為是一種美德，這是不容置疑的事實。A.issue“發(fā)行”；C.event“重大事件”；D.factor“要素”，均不符合題意。答案為B。 
60.所提供的情境Perhaps we should have kept our mouths shut?表明，選擇excitement(激動)、happiness(幸福)和pride(驕傲)不會產(chǎn)生這樣的疑問。換句話說，我們偶然有這樣的經(jīng)歷，當我們向別人說出了我們的思想，傾吐了我們的感情，然后，我們內(nèi)心充滿了犯罪感。答案為D。

For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
Most people believe they don’t have much imagination. They are    50  .Everyone has imagination, but most of us, once we become adults, forget how to    51  it. Creativity isn’t always   52  with great works of art or ideas. People at work and in their free time   53  think of creative ways to solve problems. Maybe you have a goal to achieve, a tricky question to answer or you just want to expand your mind! Here are three techniques to help you.
Making connections This technique involves taking   54  ideas and trying to find links between them. First, think about the problem you have to solve or the job you need to do. Then find an image, word, idea or object, for example, a candle. Write down all the idea/words   55  with candles: light, fire, matches, wax, night, silence, etc. Think of as many as you can. The next stage is to relate the   56  to the job you have to do. So imagine you want to buy a friend an original   57  ; you could buy him tickets to match or take him out for the night.
NO limits! Imagine that normal limitations don’t   58  . You have as much time/space/money, etc. as you want. Think about your goal and the new   59  .If your goal is to learn to ski,   60  , you can now practise skiing every day of your life （because you have the time and the money）. Now    61   this to reality.  Maybe you can practise skiing ever day in December, or every Monday in January.
Be someone else! Look at the situation from a    62  point of view. Good businessmen use this technique in trade, and so do writes. Fiction writers often imagine they are the   63  in their books. They ask question: What does this character want? Why can’t she get it? What changes must she make to get what she wants? If your goal involves other people, put yourself in their    64  . The best fishermen think like fish!

A
What Is a Boy?
Between the innocence of babyhood and the seriousness of manhood we find a delightful creature called a “boy”. Boys come in different sizes, weights, and colors, but all boys have the same belief: to enjoy every second of every minute of every hour of every day and to fill the air with noise until the adult males pack them off to bed at night．
Boys are found everywhere－on top of, under, inside of, climbing on, swinging from, running around, or jumping to． Mothers spoil them, little girls hate them, older sisters and brothers love them, and God protects them． A boy is TRUTH with dirt on its face, BEAUTY with a cut on its finger, WISDOM with chocolate in its hair, and the HOPE of the future with a snake in its pocket．
When you are busy, a boy is a trouble – maker and a noise． When you want him to make a good impression, his brain turns to jelly or else he becomes a wild creature bent on destroying the world and himself with it．
A boy is a mixture – he has the stomach of a horse, the digestion of stones and sand, the energy of an atomic bomb, the curiosity of a cat, the imagination of a superman, the shyness of a sweet girl, the brave nature of a bull, the violence of a firecracker, but when you ask him to make something, he has five thumbs on each hand．
He likes ice cream, knives, saws, Christmas, comic books, woods, water (in its natural habitat), large animals, Dad, trains, Saturday mornings, and fire engines． He is not much for Sunday schools, company, schools, books without pictures, music lessons, neckties, barbers, girls, overcoats, adults, or bedtime．
Nobody else is so early to rise, or so late to supper． Nobody else gets so much fun out of trees, dogs, and breezes． Nobody else can put into one pocket a rusty knife, a half eaten apple, a three-feet rope, six cents and some unknown things．
A boy is a magical creature – he is your headache but when you come home at night with only destroyed pieces of your hopes and dreams, he can mend them like new with two magic words, “Hi, Dad!”
41．The whole passage is in a tone of _________．
