A

(2017·镇江高三一模)It is impossible to perform consistently in a manner inconsistent with the way we see ourselves. In other words, we usually act in direct __1__ to our self­image. Nothing is more difficult to __2__ than changing outward actions without changing inward feelings.

One of the best ways to __3__ those inward feelings is to have some “success” under your belt. My daughter Elizabeth has a __4__ to be shy and wants to hold back on new experiences. But once she has __5__ to a situation, it's “full steam ahead”. When she was in first grade, her school had a candy bar __6__. Each child was given thirty candy bars and was __7__ to sell every one of them. __8__ I picked up Elizabeth from school she was holding her “challenge” and needed some __9__ encouragement. It was time for a sales meeting with my new salesgirl.

All the way home I taught her how to sell candy bars. I __10__ each teaching point with half a dozen “You can do it — your smile will __11__ them over — I believe in you” phrases. By the end of our fifteen­minute __12__， the young lady sitting beside me had become a __13__ saleslady.

At the end of the day, all thirty bars had been sold. She excitedly __14__ as I tucked her into bed that night: “Oh God, thanks for the candy sale at school. It's great.”

Elizabeth's prayer reflects the heart's __15__ of every person. We all want to be winners. The next day Elizabeth came home __16__ another box of candy bars. She'd exhausted (用完，耗尽) the __17__ of friendly neighbors, and she was thrust into the cruel world of the unknown buyer. __18__ I offered encouragement and a few more selling tips. And she did it. The experience __19__ two days of selling, two sold­out performances, two happy people, and one boosted __20___. How we see ourselves reflects how others see us.

1．A.opposition B．response

C．preference D．contrast

解析：选B 根据第一段第一句可知，我们不可能一直表现出与我们看待自己的方式相悖的行为。换句话说，我们通常对我们的自我评价作出直接的反应(response)。

opposition“反对”；preference“偏爱”；contrast“对比”。

2．A.accomplish B．acknowledge

C．appreciate D．allocate

解析：选A没有什么事比改变外在的行为而不改变内在的情感更难完成(accomplish)。acknowledge“承认”；appreciate“欣赏”；allocate“分配”。

3．A.follow B．control

C．injure D．improve

解析：选D 改善(improve)那些内在情感的一个最好的办法是获得一些成功。

4．A.chance B．tendency

C．need D．competence

解析：选B 我的女儿伊丽莎白有害羞的倾向(tendency)。

解析：选C 但是她仅有一次对一种情况更加感兴趣(warmed)，那就是“全速前进”。

8．A.When B．While

C．If D．Because

解析：选A 当我从学校接伊丽莎白时，她手里正拿着自己的“挑战”，需要一些积极的(positive)鼓励。pick up是终止性动词短语，故选A项。

9．A.negative B．further

C．rough D．positive

解析：选 D 参见上题解析。positive“积极的”符合语境。negative“消极的”；further“更远的”；rough“艰苦的”。
