Lose-Win is weak. It’s easy to get stepped on. It’s easy to be the nice guy. It’s easy to give in, all in the name of being a peacemaker.
A girl named Jenny once told me about her 36 in the world of Lose Win during her eighth grade year before she finally broke 37 :
My 38 with my mom all started one day 39 she said to me sarcastically(諷刺地),“Wow, you’re sure sassy today.” I 40 it so literally (字面地) that then and there I decided to close myself off from her and never 41 back to her. So every time she would say something 42 I disagreed with her I would just say, “Okay, 43 you want, Mom”
But I really got cold quickly. And my 44 began to build. One night I talked to my mom about the school homework and she said, “Oh, that’s 45 ”and then went back to mop the floor.
“Don’t you ever 46 ?”I thought. But I didn’t say anything and stormed off. She had no idea I was 47 upset. She would have been willing to talk to me had I 48 her how important it was to me.
At last, I just blew up. “Mom, this has got to 49 . You tell me everything you want me to do and I just do it because it’s 50 than fighting. Well, I’m sick of it.” This all came as a 51 to her.
After my blowup, we felt like we were 52 all over in our relationship. But it’s getting better all the time. We discuss things now and I always 53 my feeling with her.
If you adopt Lose Win as your basic 54 toward life, then people will wipe their dirty feet on you. You’ll also be 55 your true feelings deep inside. And that’s not healthy.

36.A 通過(guò)下文看,Jenny講述了自己從忍氣吞聲到最終擺脫出來(lái)的過(guò)程。而在此過(guò)程中,她經(jīng)歷了從妥協(xié)到氣憤以至最后跟媽媽理論爭(zhēng)得尊嚴(yán)的過(guò)程。因此,選“徘徊”最能說(shuō)明這個(gè)過(guò)程。
37.D break free“掙脫”,“獲得心靈、精神上的解放”,符合Jenny爭(zhēng)得自己尊嚴(yán)的結(jié)果。
38.B 從后文看,這兒指的是“我”跟媽媽的“問(wèn)題、矛盾”的出現(xiàn)。
39.C when引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句,修飾前面的名詞day,本身作狀語(yǔ)。
40.D take此處意思是“接受、理解”之意,此處指作者并未真正了解媽媽對(duì)她的諷刺口吻,僅僅理解她所說(shuō)的話的字面意義。
41.C talk back“還嘴、頂嘴”,此處指Jenny決定忍氣吞聲,不跟媽媽頂嘴。
42.A even if引導(dǎo)讓步狀語(yǔ)從句,當(dāng)“即使”講,Jenny此處決定即使媽媽說(shuō)的不對(duì),也不去頂撞她。
43.B 此處指Jenny總是不頂撞媽媽,媽媽說(shuō)什么就是什么,因此用whatever“無(wú)論什么”。
44.B Jenny雖然不頂撞媽媽,但內(nèi)心的“怒氣”在聚集。
45.C 理解下文Jenny生氣可知,此處是媽媽“敷衍”我的話,意為“好啊”,表現(xiàn)出媽媽對(duì)我的學(xué)業(yè)漠不關(guān)心。
46.A care當(dāng)“關(guān)心、在乎”講,此處Jenny在內(nèi)心里反問(wèn):媽媽關(guān)心過(guò)我嗎?
47.C even此處用來(lái)加強(qiáng)語(yǔ)氣。進(jìn)一步說(shuō)明媽媽對(duì)“我”漠不關(guān)心,意為:她甚至不知道我生氣了。also, still, already均不合邏輯。
48.D 此處句子結(jié)構(gòu)是虛擬語(yǔ)氣,假如我“告訴”媽媽,她會(huì)明白學(xué)業(yè)對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)有多么重要。
49.B Jenny最后終于爆發(fā),對(duì)媽媽說(shuō):這一切需要“改變”了。Jenny不能再忍氣吞聲下去了。
50.B Jenny在申訴:忍氣吞聲是為了避免跟媽媽發(fā)生沖突,為了大家好,即:我忍氣吞聲總比與你發(fā)生爭(zhēng)執(zhí)來(lái)對(duì)大家說(shuō)“更容易”。
51.A 表示媽媽沒(méi)有預(yù)料到“我”會(huì)這么生氣,而且向她申訴。surprise用作可數(shù)名詞,當(dāng)“令人吃驚的事情”講。
52.B 表示“我”和媽媽的關(guān)系有了新的“開(kāi)始”。start all over表示“重新開(kāi)始”。
53.A share\:with\:與媽媽分享(交流)自己的感情,符合題意跟搭配關(guān)系。
54.C 后面的介詞是toward,因此只有選“態(tài)度”才符合題意跟搭配關(guān)系。
55.D Jenny最后發(fā)表議論,“忍氣吞聲”、把自己的真實(shí)感情“隱藏”起來(lái)對(duì)健康不利。

All of my childhood and early, adult life, my mom weighed over 220 pounds (one pound = 0.454 kilograms). I could feel the pain that my mom experienced with her fatness.
I was never uncomfortable about my mother, but I think she was uncomfortable about herself, and that feeling was painful for all of us. And she began to lose weight.
After more than twenty years of battling obesity(肥胖), my mother completed a forceful eighteen-month diet that left her ninety pounds lighter than before. A new woman was born! At age twenty-eight, I got a new mom! For the first time, I met the woman my mother truly was, the beautiful little lady under the fatness. It wasn’t so much her new body that was the surprise, but rather her new spirit.
To celebrate her new size and to devote herself to dancing again, my mother joined a “Mrs. Forty-Plus” competition, where she would have to model, give a speech and provide a dance performance. She told our family that she did not care if she won — she simply had always wanted to perform on stage.
She told each one of us, “I’m not doing it to win; I’m doing it to dance!”
The competition was exciting! I prayed(祈禱) that my mom would win, but while watching her on stage I was simply overjoyed just by her effort. To me, she had already won. She posed to perfection, her speech brought tears to everyone’s eyes, and her performance was wonderful.
That night, at age fifty-three, my mother was crowned (為......加冕) “Mrs. Forty-Plus”. She was the first person in our family to ever win such a title.

A. providing a dance performance
B. telling a funny story about herself
C. giving a speech to a large number of people
