【題目】I teach economics at UNLV. Last Monday, at the beginning of class, I cheerfully asked my students how their weekend had been. ____【1】____He then asked me why I always seemed to be so cheerful.

His question reminded me of something I’d read somewhere before: “Every morning when you get up, you have a choice about how you want to approach life that day,” I said.“____【2】____

“Let me give you an example,” I continued. This university is 17 miles down the freeway from where I live. One day I only had to drive another quarter mile down the road to the college. ____【3】____I tried to start it again, but the engine wouldn’t turn over. So I put my flashers on and marched down the road to the college.”

“As soon as I got there .I arranged for a tow truck to meet me at my car after class. A teacher asked me what had happened. ‘This is my lucky day,’ I replied, smiling at her. ____【4】____What do you mean?’ She continued to ask. ‘I live 17 miles from here. My car could have broken down anywhere along the freeway. It didn’t. Instead, it broke down off the freeway, within walking distance of here. I’m still able to teach my class and arrange for the tow truck to meet me after class. I explained to her.

“Her eyes opened wide, and then she smiled. ____【5】____ So ended my story.

I scanned the sixty faces. Despite the early hour, no one seemed to be asleep. Somehow, my story had touched them. In fact, it had all started with a student’s observation that I was cheerful.

A. I choose to be cheerful.

B. You’re your own master.

C. But just then my car died.

D. I smiled back and headed for class.

E. One’s life depends on one’s attitude.

【4】F

【5】D

【解析】

試題分析:本文是一篇記敘文。當我問學生周末過得怎么樣時,一位學生提問為何我總是看起來那么高興。我想起了曾經(jīng)發(fā)生的一件事情:我的家離學校有17公里,有一天我的車中途壞了,我不得不下車步行上班。到了學校我馬上安排貨車去拖我的車,同事問我發(fā)生了什么事,我卻說這是我幸運的一天,因為車沒有壞在高速上,我可以下車步行去上班,也可以更快地安排貨車去拖車。告訴我們要積極面對生活。

【1】G 由后句He then asked me why I always seemed to be so cheerful.

知他問我為何我總是看起來那么高興。推測出這位學生的周末不是太愉快。故選G。

【2】A 由第二段最后一句“Every morning when you get up, you have a choice about how you want to approach life that day,” I said.“________

知每天早上醒來我們有很多度過這一天的選擇,我選擇積極面對生活。這種態(tài)度從后文我的敘述中也看得出來。故選A。

【3】C 由第三段第四句I tried to start it again, but the engine wouldn’t turn over.知我試圖發(fā)動汽車,可是引擎罷工了。所以推測出我的車在路上壞了。故選C。

【4】F 由第四段第三句‘This is my lucky day,’ I replied, smiling at her. ________What do you mean?’ She continued to ask知我認為這是我的幸運日。我的同事很不理解,怎么我的車壞了還說是幸運日呢?她追問我這是什么意思。故選F。

【5】D 由倒數(shù)第二段“Her eyes opened wide, and then she smiled. ________ So ended my story.知他的眼睛睜的很大,然后她笑了。我也笑著去上課。故選D。

【題目】閱讀下面短文,掌握其大意,然后從1—15各題所給的A、B、C和D項中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。

In a recent airing of "Unsolved Mysteries", there was a young boy who was the victim of the holocaust(大屠殺).He'd been in a work camp for several years and somehow had managed to survive the of his imprisonment.

The story was of a boy - now in his sixties - and his quest to find an American soldier who had a kindness to him by some food. It might seem ,but to this child, who had seen nothing but and inhumanity for as long as he could remember, it was a that marked a turning point in his life, for he had lost hope .When he was liberated by the American forces, he was dying. He, needed food. As he was staggering along the road a young soldier down from his tank and gave him some of his supplies. With this one act of generosity, a kind American had aroused the again that there really was some good in the world. And the boy never it. The boy later went to America, raised a family, became successful and worked hard to repay the he had received with his own.

Actually there were so many similar acts of generosity that it would be almost impossible to know for sure who the soldier was.

We all have a choice: to create more light in the world. As Confucius it over 2500 years ago, "It is better to light one small candle than to the darkness."

As the story above so nicely small gestures can often generate huge blessings. If we're constantly looking for and doing kind acts, we will no doubt bring more joy into the world around us as well as into our own world!

【題目】If you want to grow, one important thing you should do is keeping a journal. It may seem simple, but it can make a big difference in your life. I have been keeping journals for years. Writing all the lessons I learn and all the ideas I get has become a habit for me. And to be honest, I can’t imagine what my life would be like without it. 【1】

◆ It prevents you from losing an idea. Have you ever gotten an idea only to lose it later because you didn’t write it down? 2 But then I developed the habit of writing down every idea that came into my mind as soon as possible. If I’m away from my computer, I usually write it down on a piece of paper that I bring wherever I go. I will then transfer the idea to the journal in my computer.

◆ It helps you review all the lessons you’ve learned. By reviewing your journal, you can quickly see the lessons you’ve learned and the ideas you’ve gotten. 3 You can use the ideas to propel (鞭策) yourself forward.

4 After keeping a journal for years, you can look back at it and see how far you’ve gone. Things that were big problems in the past might seem small today. The raw ideas you had in the past might have been realized today.

◆ It helps you expand your ideas. When you try to come up with a sentence to express an idea, you are thinking actively about it. 5 In the end, you will expand your ideas.

A. I often experienced that myself.

B. It trains you to express your thoughts.

C. It allows you to see your progress over time.

D. Just use whatever tool you feel comfortable with.

E. Here are some benefits you will get by keeping a journal.

F. Thinking actively helps you connect your idea to another idea.

G. Then you can do whatever necessary to avoid repeating the same mistakes.

F)中選出適合各段落的首句,并在答題紙上將該選項標號涂黑。選項中有一項是多余選項。

A.Keep a record.

B.Reflect on life's briefness.

C.Reflect on your past mistakes.

D.Reflect on how amazing you are.

E.Stop trying to win others' approval.

F.Think whether it will really bother you later.

Five Ways to Instantly Rid Yourself of Needless Worry

A while back, I had a great day and everything was going exactly as I wanted.I was meeting tons of new people and everything was amazing.I felt like I've accomplished a lot.Then suddenly, like an unexpected swift jab, someone made a small remark about me.I felt hurt and the worry began flowing in.Over the years, I've developed belief systems that help me get rid of these worries.I want to share these with you.

【1】______ It just isn't possible to get everyone to like you.Trust me, I've tried.This only leads to disappointment on a daily basis, since you can't possibly live up to the entire world's expectations.Here's a new goal for you instead if you really want to get rid of worry and unhappiness from your life.Focus on what you think of yourself.Who cares what that stranger thinks? If you're happy with who you are and you know what weaknesses you should fix then forget about the world.Life is bigger than trying to look awesome; life is about actually being awesome.

2______ The first thing I ask myself is, will this negative thought affect me in the future at all? Is it going to decrease my quality of life somehow? More often than not, it's just something I'll soon forget about anyway.So I put myself into the future by a couple of days and imagine myself.In this vision, I realize that I won't be bothered by something so small and I most likely wouldn't even remember it.A lot of times, just the idea of it fleeting away very soon is enough for me to block out these disturbances.

3______ When I feel like I'm inadequate based on the need for approval from others, I begin to do some self-reflect on my achievements.I think about how much I've improved in the past year.I've met amazing people, developed active listening skills, and started something I've been thinking about for the past two years.Looking further back, I transformed from a socially awkward kid to a socially lively and confident person.All thanks to mental skills that I consciously yield.I was blessed with true fortunes that others do not have; I was blessed with the gift of self-improvement.

4_______ Write anywhere you can, whether it's in a blog, in your journal, or on a post-it note that you can throw dramatically into the ocean.Get those worries out onto paper.Look at it, assess its importance, then tear it, burn it, or throw it into the ocean like I just said.You can then look back at that paper you just destroyed and laugh at how ridiculous you were being.Who cares if that lady looked at you strangely? Who cares that someone may have noticed stains on your new white sneakers? Write all of that, then destroy it.

5_____ Finally, just reflect on how short life is; focus on how life is constantly fleeting.Do you really want to spend what little time you have on this beautiful earth worrying about something you won't even remember by next week? Don't be silly, get out there and enjoy life.You've got it pretty good, I'd bet.Don't waste it on needless worry.

Improve the Public Speaking With Body Language

A successful public speaker does not only focus on what to say, but the physical message of presentation. Some call this “body language.” It includes posture, eye contact and gestures - how you move your hands or arms. Charles LeBeau, a professor of public speaking tells about how to do it well.

【1】 ________. Presenters may not feel at ease because they’re doing a presentation. They may worry about their poor English, and their lack of confidence. They’re trying to figure out the grammar and what to say. They’re having all kinds of difficulty doing presentation, and also controlling their body. They may move from side to side. Besides, it’s not a good idea for a presenter to stand perfectly still. In fact an audience can lose interest in a speaker who does not move.

2 ________. With posture, the typical problem is that they are often moving back and forth, and they’re not facing the audience. They don’t catch the audience’s attention. They are only trying to talk from notes, facing the white board or the screen with slides rather than talking to the audience. Same thing with eye contact. Besides, some experts advise moving your body to a different place for each idea. Stay in place until you finish making that point. Then move to the next place on the stage or in the room.

3________. Images should help communicate the point you want to make. Writing a few words with the image on your slide instead of sentences helps you remember that point. If you can figure out what images to use that will communicate your message, because the images will communicate faster and more clearly than words. Then you can look at the audience while speaking.

4 ________. Holding on to notes makes it more difficult for a speaker to have a proper gesture. Mr. LeBeau’s book, “Speaking of Speech,” discusses this. He says gestures should support the point the speaker is making. For example, when talking about three ideas, hold up three fingers to introduce them. Then hold up one finger while explaining the first idea, two fingers for the second, and so on.

5________. It can help you see from a different angle, you may clearly see: “Oh, My! I had no idea that I looked like that! My posture! I’m moving all over the place. Look at my hips. It’s going back and forth and back and forth. And my eye contact! All of these other goofy things that I’m doing without noticing it, or thinking that ‘well, it’s not such a big deal.’ Once you see what you are doing, you may change more quickly. So you can do your presentation again, and work on changing, then you can compare, and see that you can make quick span>improvement.

An important part of public speaking is practice. When you practice remember these important tips: Be aware of your posture, eye contact, and gestures. Record yourself using a phone, tablet, or camera. Watch yourself and plan what you will do to improve.
