Question

Do you know some people who just have all the luck? They seem to get all the 1 and you ask yourself: “Why don’t I get 2? Why don’t I get a great education?” But the real reason why most people are successful or lucky is that they’ve learned how to 3 themselves in a place so they can be lucky. They’ve learned how to, in a way, 4 their own luck!
I’m not 5 about dishonest or illegal ways. I’m talking about hard, 6 work. But successful people work smart. They keep improving and making the most of their abilities. Yet they also learn to 7 for help in things they themselves are not that good 8 doing. So we not only must make the most of our own special strengths, we must also learn our 9 and weaknesses.
A man recently got his lucky big break. Everyone said, “That guy’s so lucky!” But that man created his own luck 10 by arriving at the office early. He apologized and 11 when he was wrong. He even shared the credit and reward with others 12 he had done much of the work. He was never satisfied just to get 13 and do average work. He always 14 the extra effort to do his very best.
We have to work hard and do what it15to be on the way to luck and success when it comes. 16 , weMI miss it because we aren’t ready. You never know when the right opportunity will come your way, and when the right, important person is watching your excellent 17 and work. That’s when you’ll get your lucky break! But when you put your life in Jesus Christ’s 18 , the right important person is always 19 you and all that you do. Then he will20and bless vour life in manv wavs as vou do vour very best to please him in every thina every dav.

Answer 1

CBACC BDABA ABBDC BCADC
試題分析：有些人總是鴻運當(dāng)頭，占盡了機緣。你不禁會想：“為什么我沒有這種福氣？”其實大多數(shù)人成功或走運的真正原因是他們知道如何為自己“創(chuàng)造”好運。成功者不僅努力工作，還富有智慧。他們不斷地豐富并充分利用自己的資源，而且對自己不擅長的事，他們也知道如何去尋求幫助。
1.C上句“Do you know some people who just have  all the luck？”暗示“有些人總是吉星高照”，所以此處指“他們似乎占盡了機緣”。這里用break表示  “運氣”。第三段第一句句末的break也有暗示。qualification“資格，條件”； occupation“工作，職業(yè)”；license“批準(zhǔn)，許可，執(zhí)照”。
2.Blucky“幸運的，僥幸的，吉利的”。你會問自己：“為什么我沒有這種好運氣呢？”前文的have all the luck和下文的“But the real reason why most people are successful or lucky is that...”也有暗示。
3.A put themselves in a place“使他們自己處于有運氣的地方”。成語“設(shè)身處地”可譯為：put oneself in other's position。
4.C create“創(chuàng)造，創(chuàng)作，創(chuàng)建”。第三段的第三句“But that man created his own luck...”有暗示。語境為：在某種程度上，他們(那些成功的人們)學(xué)會了如何 “創(chuàng)造”自己的好運。
5.C talk about“談?wù)摗�。下句“I'm talking about hard，honest work”有暗示。
6.B practical“實際的，實踐的，實用的”；adequate“充分的，適當(dāng)?shù)模瑒偃蔚摹�；meaningful“有目的的，有意義的”；honest“誠實的，可靠的，直率的”。前句“I'm not talking about dishonest or illegal ways”暗示此處應(yīng)填honest。
7.D下句中的“they themselves are not good at doing”表明這里填ask，短語ask for help表示“尋求幫助”。
8.A習(xí)慣搭配be good at表示“擅長”。然而，對自己不擅長的事情，他們學(xué)會     了向別人求助。
9.B limit“局限，界限，限度”；pressure“壓力”；strength“力量，優(yōu) 點”；ability“能力，才智”。前句說“我們不僅要充分地發(fā) 揮自己的特長”， 因此本句是說“我們還必須知道自己的局限和弱點”。our limits and weaknesses 對應(yīng)our own special strength。
10.A always“總是，一直”，表示頻度非常高。由語境“那個人靠總是早早地來到辦公室創(chuàng)造了自己的好運”可知，這里應(yīng)選always。而不是“偶爾、很少、從不”早到辦公室。
11.A realize“認(rèn)識到，了解”；promise“允諾，答應(yīng)”；admit“承認(rèn)”； convey“運輸，表達”。根據(jù)空后的“when he was wrong”(當(dāng)他犯錯誤的時候)可推斷，他勇于“承認(rèn)”(admit)錯誤。
12.B上一空后的when...狀語從句有暗示。語境為：當(dāng)他做了大部分工作的時候，他仍然與他人分享榮譽和獎賞。
13.B get by“混過，湊合，勉強應(yīng)付”。get over“克服，忍受，痊愈”。語境為：他永不滿足于僅僅做普通的工作，不會得過且過，他總是追求盡善盡美。
14.Dmake the extra effort“付出額外的努力”。名詞effort總是與make搭配。
15.C take“花費”；afford“買得起，承擔(dān)得起”；obtain“獲得，得到”；  adapt“(使)適應(yīng)”。句式it takes...to do sth.表示“做某事需要……”。語境為：我們必須努力工作，盡一切努力走到運氣和成功降臨的路上。
16.B  otherwise“否則，要不然”，引出相反的結(jié)果。語境為：否則，我們就會 因為沒有準(zhǔn)備好而錯失良機。
17.C approach“途徑，方式，方法”；administration“管理，經(jīng)營，支配”；  action“行動，活動，行為”；attitude“態(tài)度，看法”。語境為：你從不會知道適當(dāng)?shù)臋C遇何時來臨，那個關(guān)鍵的人物何時注視著你出色的態(tài)度和表現(xiàn)。
18.A短語in the hands of sb./in sb.'s hands表示“命運掌握在某人的手中”。語境：如果你讓自己的生活處于上帝的掌控之中……
19.D watch“保護，留心，注視”；adopt“采用，采納，收養(yǎng)”；affect“影響”；catch“逮住，捉住，抓住，追上”。重要的人物(上帝)一直在注視你和你所做的事情。本段第二句中“when the right，important person is watching your...”部分有暗示。
20.C 根據(jù)下句bless your life in many ways可推測本空填reward“報酬，報答，獎賞，報償”。語境為：你時時、事事都盡力使他(上帝)愉悅，上帝就會用很多   方式(好運氣)來獎賞你。
考點：考察人生百態(tài)類短文閱讀
