Ⅰ.阅读理解
Did you know that Albert Einstein could not speak until he was four years old,and could not read until he was seven?His parents and teachers worried about his mental ability.
Beethoven’s music teacher said about him,“As a composer(作曲家) he is hopeless.”What if this young boy had believed it?
When Thomas Edison was a young boy,his teachers said he was so stupid that he could never learn anything.He once said,“I remember I used to never be able to get along at school.I was always at the foot of my class...My father thought I was stupid,and I almost decided that I was a stupid person.”What if young Thomas had believed what they said about him?
When the sculptor(雕刻家) Auguste Rodin was young,he had difficulty learning to read and write.Today,we may say he had a learning disability.His father said of him,“I have an idiot(白痴) for a son.”His uncle agreed.“He’s uneducable,”he said.What if Rodin had doubted his ability?
Walt Disney was once fired by a newspaper editor because he was thought to have no “good ideas”.Enrico Caruso was told by one music teacher,“You can’t sing.You have no voice at all.”And an editor told Louisa May Alcott that she was unable to write anything that would have popular appeal.
What if these people had listened and become discouraged?Where would our world be without the music of Beethoven,the art of Rodin or the ideas of Albert Einstein and Walt Disney?As Oscar Levant once said,“It’s not what you are but what you don’t become that hurts.”
You have great potential.When you believe in all you can be,rather than all you cannot become,you will find your place on earth.

语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。

阐述了不要以貌取人的道理。

答案及剖析:
1.A 根据第二段可知作者在本篇文章中强调“不要以貌取人”这句古语在学校生活中是十分有用的,同时根据第二段中的“they could be your new best friends”可知A选项最符合语境。

B、C、D选项文中均没有涉及。

2.D 第三段引起下文,与后文内容对应。

根据第二段中“See”可判断D选项最符合语境。

此外,后文内容涉及对身边人物的观察与结论,由此也可推测observe(观察)正确。

3.B 根据后文“with his head down who sits at the lunch table all by himself”可知这个男孩低着头,自己坐在午餐桌旁,略显孤独。

四个选项中,B选项shy与此句的感情色彩相符。

confident自信的;humorous幽默的;popular受欢迎的。

4.B ever曾经。

此句为作者对读者的提醒,“你曾经想过他们会成为你的新的好朋友吗”。

此处ever可以表达出对某件事情或某种现象的回想与思考。

5.C 你所了解到的关于他们的一切都是别人告诉你的,所以选C。

learn about 了解,知晓;care about 关心,在意;argue about为……争论;worry about 为……担忧。

6.D 此处强调“你所听到的可能不是事实”,因此D选项正确。

7.C 第二段是对“不要以貌取人”的初步阐述。

come in在这里意为“起作用(have a particular role or function)”,强调此句俗语对人生的指导意义。

give in屈服,让步;go in 参加,进去;put in 进入,放入。

8.A 根据上下文可知judge的意思是“评价,判定”,即形成对某人或某事的看法,所以这里应该选A。

9.A 此空是对“人与人之间相互评价”这一现象的形容,B、C、D选项均与上文语义不通,据此可判断A选项正确。

10.B 后文均为作者从评价与被评价多角度给出了自己的建议,所以答案为B。

11.D 此句为作者提出的建议之一。

针对“采取行动之前应该如何做”这一问题,作者提出了“要充分了解对方”的建议,D选项最符合语境。

12.C C选项hate与后文“keep away from them”所表达的感情色彩一致,最符合语境。

13.A 根据第二段可知“从别人那里听到的不一定是事实”,可推测作者之意:不要轻易相信别人的话。

A选项believe符合语境。

14.B “unless”说明后文是对某种条件的排除,说明在某种条件下是可以相信对方所说的话的。

be close to 与……关系亲近,说明是在说话人与事件涉及人关系比较亲密的条件下,或许可以确认话语的真实性。

15.C 此句为作者对“如何处理他人对自己的评价”的建议。

四个选项中只有C选项talk 可以达到后文所提到的“让他人了解自己”的目的。

16.A give sb. no choice but to do sth.让某人别无选择只能做某事,此为固定搭配。

此句强调“通过交谈的方式让对方了解你。

”
17.C 根据本空所在的句子,可知:当你做了之后,随着时间的推移,他们对你的看法会有所改变。

本段中opinion也是对该空的旁证。

18.A 根据下文“If it’s for the worse”可知本段是对“看法向好的方向发展”的阐述,对应下文可知A选项正确。

19.D 此空与上文对应,表达意义应与“great”相反,据此排除A选项;B选项与语境不符,排除;C选项与上下文语义不符,排除。

选D。

20.C 通过上文可知,作者强调在别人对自己的印象变坏的时候不要心烦,这只是某一个人的看法,作者希望当人们面对此种情况的时候,能够做自己,不受他人的影响。
