第二部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)
第一节单项填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
从A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
例:It is generally considered unwise to give a child ________ he or she wants.
A.however B.whatever
C.whichever D.whenever
答案:B
21.In some countries, people eat with chopsticks, while in ________,knives and forks.
A.another B.others
C.both D.all
解析:选B考查代词。
句意:在一些国家里,人们用筷子吃饭,而在其他国家,人们用刀叉吃饭。
another“另一个”,指三者或三者以上中的另一个;others“其他的”,表示泛指;both“两者,两个都”;all“(三者或三者以上)都”。
根据句中的关键词some
countries(一些国家)可知,空格处表示“其他的国家”,所以选择B项(others)。
22.Our club is open to everyone ________ age, sex or educational background.
A.due to B.except for
C.along with D.regardless of
解析:选D考查介词短语辨析。
句意:我们的俱乐部对任何人开放,不管年龄、性别或教育背景。
due to“因为,由于”,后接原因;except for“除……之外”;along with“和……一起”;regardless of“不管,不顾,不考虑”。
根据句中的关键词open to everyone可知,俱乐部是对所有人开放,因此是不管/不考虑(regardless of)年龄、性别或教育背景。
23.—Haven't seen you for ages! Where have you been?
—I went to Ningxia and ________ there for one year, teaching as a volunteer.
A.stayed B.stay
C.had stayed D.am staying
解析:选A考查时态。
句意:“好长时间没见你了!你去哪里了?”“我去了宁夏,在那里待了一年,作为一名志愿者教学。
”根据句中的关键词went可知stay这一动作也发生在过去,故用一般过去时。
延续性动词stay, study, live等的一般过去时可与“for+一段时间”连用。
24.With online shopping increasingly popular, the Internet is seen as a(n) ________way of reaching target customers.
A.temporary B.complex
C.accurate D.efficient
解析:选D考查形容词辨析。
句意:随着网上购物变得越来越流行,网络被看作是一种吸引目标顾客的有效方法。
temporary“暂时的”;complex“复杂的”;accurate“准确的”;efficient“有效的,效率高的”。
由increasingly popular“越来越受欢迎”可知,网络是一种吸引目标顾客有效的(efficient)方法。
25.It is widely acknowledged that students should be________ in terms of overall quality.
A.supported B.matched
C.evaluated D.controlled
解析:选C考查动词辨析。
句意:(人们)普遍认为应该从综合素质的角度来评价学生。
support“支持,赞成”;match“相配,相称”;evaluate“评价,评估”;control“控制”。
根据句中的关键词students以及overall quality(综合素质)可知空格处表示评价(evaluate)。
26.—Could you tell me the ________ of making such tasty cakes?
—Well, I just follow the directions in the cookbook.
A.feature B.plan
C.cost D.trick
解析:选D考查名词辨析。
句意:“你能告诉我制作这样美味的蛋糕的技巧吗?”“哦,我就是照着烹饪书上的说明做的。
”feature“特点,特征”;plan“计划”;cost“成本,费用”;trick“窍门,技巧,诡计,恶作剧”。
根据句中making such tasty cakes(制作这样美味的蛋糕)可知,上句说话人询问的是制作蛋糕的技巧(trick)。
27.________ the past year as an exchange student in Hong Kong, Linda appears more mature than those of her age.
A.Spending B.Spent
C.Having spent D.To spend
解析:选C考查非谓语动词。
句意:琳达,一名交换生,过去的一年是在香港度过的,因此她看上去比同龄人更成熟。
主语Linda与spend之间是主谓关系,需用现在分词或不定式,可排除B项;D项to spend是不定式作目的状语,与句意不符合;再根据the past year 可知,spend这一动作已经发生了,所以用现在分词的完成式。
28.The climate here is quite pleasant, the temperature rarely, ________,reaching 30℃ in summer.
A.if not B.if ever
C.if any D.if so
解析:选B考查省略句。
句意:这里的气候宜人,即使曾经发生过,在夏季气温达到
30摄氏度的情况也很少出现。
if not“如果不”;if ever“如果曾经有;如果曾经发生”;if any“如果有的话”;if so“如果是这样的话”。
if ever相当于if it (the temperature) ever reached 30℃ in summer。
29.It was the culture, rather than the language,________ made it hard for him to adapt to the new environment abroad.
A.where B.why
C.that D.what
解析:选C考查强调句型。
句意:是文化而不是语言使他很难适应国外的新环境。
强调句型的判断方法是将It is/was与that去掉后仍是一个成分完整的句子。
本句是强调句型,所以空格处应用that。
30.For those with family members far away, the personal computer and the phone are important in staying ________.
A.connected B.connecting
C.to connect D.to be connected
解析:选A考查非谓语动词。
句意:对那些与家人离得比较远的人来说,个人电脑和电话在保持联系方面很重要。
句中stay (保持),它是一个连系动词,后接形容词作表语。
connected是形容词化的过去分词,意为“有联系的,有来往的”,符合句意。
31.Students should involve themselves in community activities ________ they can gain experience for growth.
A.who B.when
C.which D.where
解析:选D考查定语从句。
句意:学生们应该积极参与社团活动,在这些活动中他们可以获得成长的经验。
定语从句修饰的先行词是community activities,关系词代替先行词在后面的定语从句中作地点状语,故用where引导。
32.________ no modern telecommunications, we would have to wait for weeks to get news from around the world.
A.Were there B.Had there been
C.If there are D.If there have been
解析:选A考查虚拟语气的倒装句。
句意:要不是现代化的电讯,我们就不得不等好几个星期才能得到来自世界各地的消息。
根据would have to 以及句意可知,这是与现在事实相反的虚拟语气,从句应用一般过去时;当if从句中有were, had或should时可将if省略,同时将它们提到主语前构成部分倒装,所以选A项。
33.As a grassroots singer, she reads everything she can ________ concerning music, and takes every opportunity to improve herself.
A.catch sight of B.get hold of
C.take charge of D.make mention of
解析:选B考查动词短语辨析。
句意:作为一名草根歌手,她读了她能找到的一切与音乐有关的东西,还利用一切机会提高自己。
catch sight of“看见”;get hold of“找到,得到,抓住”;take charge of“负责”;make mention of“提到”。
根据句意可知是找到(get hold of)一切与音乐有关的东西。
34.Pick yourself up. Courage is doing ________ you're afraid to do.
A.that B.what
C.how D.whether
解析:选B考查名词性从句。
句意:振作起来。
勇敢就是做你(明知自己)害怕做的事情。
分析句子结构可知,动词doing后接的是宾语从句,从句中do后缺的是宾语,故用what 引导。
35.—I can't remember those grammar rules!
—________. Practice more.
A.You're not alone B.It's hard to say
C.I'm afraid not D.It's up to you
解析:选A考查情景交际。
句意:“我记不住那些语法规则!”“不止你自己如此。
多练习。
”You're not alone.“不止你自己这样”;It's hard to say.“很难说”;I'm afraid not.“恐怕不行”;It's up to you.“由你决定”。
根据答语中的关键词Practice more.可知空格处是安慰对方“不止你自己这样(You're not alone)”。
第二节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
From my second grade on, there was one event I feared every year: the piano recital (独奏会).
A recital__36__I had to practice a boring piece of music and perform before strangers. Each year I __37__ask my father if I could skip the recital “just this once”. And each year he'd shake his head, muttering (嘀咕)__38__about building self-confidence and working towards a __39__.
So it was with really great__40__that I stood in church one recent Sunday, video camera in hand, and __41__my 68-year-old father sweating in his shirt__42__rising to play the piano in his very first recital.
My father had longed to play music since childhood, but his family was poor and couldn't__43__lessons. He could have gone on regretting it,__44__too many of us do. But though he was rooted in his past, he wasn't __45__there. When he retired three years ago, he__46__his church music director to take him as a student.
For a moment after my father sat down at the keyboard, he__47__stared down at his fingers. Has he forgotten the__48__?I worried, remembering those split seconds__49__ago when my mind would go blank and my fingers would __50__. But then came the beautiful melody (旋律), from the__51__fingers that once baited (装饵于)my fishing lines. And I__52__he had been doing what music teachers always stress: __53__the music and pretend the others aren't there.
“I'm__54__of him for starting something new at his age,” I said to my son Jeff.
“Yeah, and doing it so __55__,” Jeff added.
With his first recital, my father taught me more about courage and determination than all the
words he used those 30-plus years ago.
错误!36.A.reflected B.explained
C.meant D.proved
解析:选C联系空格后的“I had to practice a boring piece of music and ...”可知,此处指“参加钢琴独奏会对我来说就意味着(meant)我得练习一首令人感到厌烦的曲子……”。
reflect“思考,反映,反射”;explain“解释”;prove“证明,证实”。
37.A.would B.could
C.might D.should
解析:选A联系空格前的“each year”以及文章第一句中的“from my second grade on”可知,作者在小时候每年总是(would)问父亲自己是否可以“就这一次”不参加独奏会。
would 可用来表示过去的习惯。
38.A.nothing B.everything
C.anything D.something
解析:选D联系空格后的“about building self-confidence and working towards a ...”可知父亲为了劝说“我”参加钢琴独奏会,嘀咕一些关于树立自信心,朝着……努力的事(something)。
39.A.goal B.stage
C.journey D.chance
解析:选A联系空格前的“working towards”可知是朝着某个目标(goal)努力。
40.A.trouble B.satisfaction
C.strength D.disappointment
解析:选B联系前文作者不想参加演奏会时,父母鼓励作者,此时68岁的父亲也要参加钢琴独奏会,因此作者带着很大的满足感(satisfaction)想看看年纪这么大的父亲能否演奏成功。
41.A.kept B.sent
C.watched D.felt
解析:选C联系空格前的“video camera in hand”可知,是作者在拿着摄像机给父亲录像,因此是看着(watched)父亲。
42.A.through B.from
C.against D.before
解析:选D联系后文父亲静静地坐着可知,他还没开始弹奏钢琴,因此是在父亲弹奏钢琴之前(before)“我”看着他。
43.A.miss B.afford
C.select D.understand
解析:选B联系空格前的“poor”可知父亲家里付不起(afford)学钢琴的费用。
44.A.as B.once
C.if D.while
解析:选A正像(as)我们多数人做的那样,父亲本来可以继续对小时候没学钢琴这件事感到遗憾。
45.cated B.protected
C.stuck D.spoilt
解析:选C联系空格后的“当三年前退休时,父亲让教学的音乐指挥收他做学生”可知,父亲没陷(stuck)在遗憾中,而是行动了起来。
educate“教育”;protect“保护”;spoil“娇惯,宠坏”。
46.A.allowed B.invited
C.inspired D.persuaded
解析:选D联系父亲举办钢琴独奏会可知,他说服了(persuade)教堂的音乐指挥收他做学生。
allow“允许,容许”;invite“邀请”;inspire“鼓舞,激励”。
47.A.roughly B.simply
C.merrily D.curiously
解析:选B联系空格后的“stared down at his fingers”可知,父亲没弹钢琴,只是(simply)低着头盯着他的手指。
roughly“粗略地,大致上”;merrily“快乐地,高兴地”;curiously“好奇地”。
48.A.words B.videos
C.notes D.lessons
解析:选C联系前文父亲只是低着头盯着他的手指可知,“我”担心他忘了音调(notes)。
49.A.decades B.weeks
C.hours D.moments
解析:选A联系空格前的“remembering”以及最后一段中的“those 30-plus years ago”可知,作者是想起了几十年(decades)前自己在独奏会上紧张的情景。
50.A.play B.freeze
C.click D.adjust
解析:选B联系空格前的“my mind would go blank”可知,是手指僵住了(freeze)。
51.A.same B.warm
C.different D.dirty
解析:选A此处句意为“但就在此时,父亲用曾为我的钓线装过饵的同样的(same)手指弹奏出了美妙的旋律。
”
52.A.predicted B.realized
C.imagined D.insisted
解析:选B联系前文的“then came the beautiful melody”可知,“我”意识到(realized)父亲并没有忘记音调,他只是一直在做老师强调的东西。
53.A.pass over B.turn up
C.bring in D.concentrate on
解析:选D联系空格后的“pretend the others aren't there”可知,空格处是说父亲集中注
意力于(concentrate on)音乐。
pass over“对……不加考虑”;turn up“出现”;bring in“引入,采用”。
54.A.ashamed B.aware
C.tired D.proud
解析:选D联系前文的“then came the beautiful melody”以及最后一段中的“...taught me more about courage and determination ...”可知,听到68岁的父亲弹奏出那么美妙的音乐,“我”为他自豪(proud)。
55.A.casually B.anxiously
C.nicely D.frequently
解析:选C联系前文的“我”为父亲自豪,以及空格前的Yeah可知,“我”儿子也在表扬我父亲弹奏得好(nicely)。
casually“偶然地,无意地”;anxiously“焦急地,担忧地”;frequently“经常地,频繁地”。
第三部分阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
It was Mother's Day morning last year and I was doing shopping at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son, Tenyson. As we were leaving, we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her head on the concrete. Her husband was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock.
Walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very upset about what had happened to the couple. He said to me, “Mum, it's not much fun falling over in front of everyone.”
At the front of the supermarket, a charity (慈善) group had set up a stand selling cooked sausages and flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower. “It will make her feel better,” he said. I was amazed that he'd come up with this sweet idea. So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up.
“Just take it,” she replied. “I can't take your money for such a wonderful gesture.”
By now paramedics (急救人员) had arrived, and were attending to the injured woman. As we walked up to her, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment. He said he was just too scared to go up to her.
Instead I gave the flower to the woman's husband and told him,“My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give her this fl ower to make her feel better.”
At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you so much, you have a wonderful son. Happy Mother's Day to you.”
The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from. Though badly hurt and shaken, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile.
56.What does the author intend to tell us?
A.One can never be too careful.
B.Actions speak louder than words.
C.Love begins with a little smile.
D.A small act of kindness brings a great joy.
解析:选D推理判断题。
作者在文章中讲述了儿子为一位摔倒的老太太买了一朵花以使她高兴起来这件小事,因此选项D符合题意。
A项“一个人再怎么小心也不过分”,B 项“行动胜过语言”,C项“爱始于一个小小的微笑”,都与文章描述的内容不符合。
57.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The elderly woman was knocked down by Tenyson.
B.Tenyson's idea of buying a flower gained his mother's support.
C.Tenyson's care for the elderly woman puzzled the flower seller.
D.The elderly woman was moved to tears by Tenyson's gesture.
解析:选B细节理解题。
根据第一段第二句可知老太太不是“我”儿子Tenyson撞倒的,由此排除A项;根据第三段第五句可知Tenyson 想买花的想法得了“我”的支持,所以选择B项;由第三段的最后一句可知C项不正确;根据文章最后一段的最后一句可排除
D项“老太太被Tenyson的行为感动得流下了眼泪。
”
58.The underlined word “intimidated” in the fourth paragraph probably means “________”.A.astonished B.struck
C.frightened D.excited
解析:选C词义猜测题。
根据画线单词后一句中的“too scared (很害怕)”以及下一段中的“Instead I gave the flower to the woman's husband ...”可知,5岁的Tenyson害怕血和医疗设备,所以选C项(frightened)。
59.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Flower Power B.Mother's Day
C.An Accidental Injury D.An Embarrassing Moment
解析:选A主旨大意题。
对比四个选项,因文中提到了Tenyson买花送给摔倒的老太太,老太太深受感动,可知本文的最佳题目是“花的力量”,因此选项A符合;B项“母亲节”,题目过大;C项“一次意外的受伤”,内涵较小,它只是本文表达主旨大意的载体;D项“一个尴尬的时刻”与文章的内容完全不符。
B
Walt Disney is credited for creating such wonderful things as Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse. However, he cannot take the credit for creating other well-loved characters, such as Cinderella and Snow White. They are almost automatically associated with Disney because Disney turned old fables (寓言) into cartoon movies.
The original Cinderella varies very much from the Disney version we know today. It started off with the girl mourning her mother's death and going to her tomb three times a day. In addition, there were only birds that helped Cinderella; there was no such thing as a fairy godmother or helpful mice, nor was there mention of a horse and carriage.
The stepsisters were cruel: they always threw Cinderella's food into the ashes of the fire, and made her sleep on the ashes on the floor, hence (因此) her name.
In the original story, the king's ball actually lasted for three days. With the help of the birds, the girl, beautifully dressed, danced with the prince on all three nights and the prince fell in love
with her. However, she broke away from him to rush back home each night. On the last night, the prince placed something sticky on the stairs; as Cinderella made her escape, a shoe got stuck on it.
Here now is where the story becomes unpleasant: when the prince went to the house looking for the girl whose foot fit the shoe, the wicked (邪恶的) stepmother told one of her two daughters to cut off her big toe to fit into the shoe. The daughter did as told. So the prince took her away to be his bride. But, when they passed the tomb of Cinderella's mother, the birds called out to the prince,
“Turn and peep, there's blood w ithin the shoe;
The shoe is too small, the true bride w aits for you.”
Realizing he had been tricked, the prince returned the daughter to her mother; the other then had to cut off part of her heel in order to fit into the shoe, with the same result. Only Cinderella's foot fit perfectly and so the prince chose to marry her. The story ends with the wedding day: as Cinderella's two stepsisters followed her, pretending to be devoted to her so that they could enjoy the king's riches, two birds flew by and plucked (啄) out their eyes. Because of their wickedness and falsehood, they had to spend the rest of their days blind.
The original Cinderella is so different from the Disney version. Thank goodness Disney made such changes; it indeed was a wise move.
60.What does the underlined word “They” in the first paragraph refer to?
A.Such wonderful things.
B.Other well-loved characters.
C.Old fables.
D.Cartoon movies.
解析:选B词义猜测题。
根据画线单词所在句的前一句“However, he cannot take the credit for creating other well-loved characters ...”可以得出答案。
61.How did Cinderella get her name?
A.The birds came up with it.
B.It was given by Disney.
C.It came from the word “ash”.
D.She got it from her mother.
解析:选C细节理解题。
根据第三段中可知,“灰姑娘”这个名字是从单词ash得出的。
A项“鸟儿们想出的”,B项“迪士尼给的”,D项“她从她妈妈那里得到的”,都与原文的内容不符。
62.Which of the following is TRUE according to the original story?
A.Helpful mice got Cinderella a beautiful dress.
B.The hall was held to celebrate the prince's wedding.
C.Cinderella left her shoe on the stairs on purpose.
D.The birds told the prince that he had been cheated.
解析:选D细节理解题。
根据第二段中的最后一句以及第四段中的第二句可知,漂亮的裙子不是helpful mice给的,由此可排除A项;根据第四段中的第一句可知是国王举行舞会,并没说是为王子的婚礼举办的,由此可排除B项;根据第四段中的最后一句可排除C 项;根据第五段最后两句可知,D项“鸟儿们告诉王子他被骗了”符合文意。
63.The moral of the original story is that ________.
A.a wicked person cannot escape punishment
B.a devoted person certainly deserves respect
C.a well-behaved child earns a great reward
D.a dishonest child cannot get mother love
解析:选A推理判断题。
根据文章倒数第二段中的冒名顶替的两个姐姐都被王子发现了,且小鸟把她们的眼睛啄瞎了可知,她们为自己的行为付出了代价,因此本文的寓意是“邪恶的人逃脱不了惩罚”,所以选择A项。
B项“一个奉献的人当然值得尊敬”,C项“一个有规矩的孩子得到了丰厚的回报”,D项“一个不诚实的孩子不能得到母爱”,都与文意不符。
64.What does the author think of the Disney version?
A.Excellent. B.Ordinary.
C.Dull. D.Ridiculous.
解析:选A推理判断题。
根据文章最后一段中的“Thank goodness Disney made such changes; it indeed was a wise move.”尤其是“Thank goodness”以及“a wise move”可知,作者对迪士尼版本的灰姑娘比较认可,因此选A项“极好的,优秀的”。
B项“普通的”,C项“枯燥的”,D项“可笑的,荒唐的”。
C
BLOOD DRIVE & MARROW (骨髓) REGISTRATION
“These patients deserve a chance at a normal, happy future and they rely on the kindness of strangers to make that happen.”
—Daisy, Isabelle's Mother
Isabelle is the daughter of Daisy and Saman Mirzaei. In January 2008 Isabelle was diagnosed (诊断) with a genetic blood disorder, beta thalassemia. Isabelle's body is unable to produce healthy red blood cells. As a result, Isabelle has been receiving blood transfusions (输血) every 4-6 weeks since she was 11 months old. A lifetime of regular transfusions can lead to serious medical problems. Her only chance at a normal, healthy life is to have a marrow transplant. Isabelle is an only child, so doctors have started a search for an unrelated marrow donor through the Be The Match Registry. The Mirzaei family asks that you consider helping patients like Isabelle by registering to be a marrow donor and give the gift of life, the gift of blood.

A.the blood drive is organized by Isabelle's mother
B.Isabelle receives blood transfusions regularly
C.Isabelle has been ill for 11 months
D.doctors will sponsor Isabelle's family
解析:选B细节理解题。
根据文中的“...doctors have started a search for an unrelated marrow donor through the Be The Match Registry.”可排除A项;根据文中的“...Isabelle has been receiving blood transfusions (输血) every 4-6 weeks since she was 11 months old.”可知,伊莎贝尔每4-6周需要输一次血,故B项符合题意;根据“...Isabelle has been receiving blood transfusions (输血) every 4-6 weeks since she was 11 months old.”可知,伊莎贝尔是从11个月大时开始输血的,故C项不正确;根据文中“...doctors have started a search ...”以及“sponsored (赞助) by Michael's Fund”可知,D项可以排除。
66.To be a marrow donor, you must ________.
A.be a relative of the patient
B.carry a driver's license
C.be at least 18 years old
D.apply to Michael's Fund
解析:选C推理判断题。
A项“是病人的一个亲戚”,在文中没有提到;由“Don't forget to bring your driver's license or another form of identification ...”可知,要成为骨髓捐献者除了可携带驾照外,其他形式的证明也可以,由此排除B项;Marrow Donors下的第一条要求年龄18岁至44岁,故18岁是成为骨髓捐献者的一个条件,故C项正确;Michael's Fund是赞助商,由此可知想成为捐献者不必向它申请,故D项不符合文意。
67.Those who want to help patients like Isabelle can ________.
A.come to Wiley Hall every Wednesday
B.visit www. ribc. org for an appointment
C.contact their parents at 800-283-8385
D.call at hospitals in Rhode Island
解析:选B细节理解题。
根据文中的Wednesday, March 26, 2014可知,活动是在这一天举行,由此可排除A项;根据文中的“Visit www. ribc. org to make an appointment ...”可知B 项正确;电话800-283-8385是Rhode Island Blood Center的电话,故C项不合题意;根据最后一句可知,Rhode Island Blood Center把血液送到医院,故D项“去位于Rhode Island 的医院”不正确。

Perhaps you think you could easily add to your happiness with more money. Strange as it may seem, if you're unsatisfied, the issue is not a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desires — not that you cannot satisfy your tastes but that you don't have enough tastes.
Real riches consist of well-developed and hearty capacities (能力) to enjoy life. Most people are already swamped (淹没) with things. They eat, wear, go and talk too much. They_live_in_too_big_a_house_with_too_many_rooms,_yet_their_house_of_life_is_a_hut.
Your house of life ought to be a mansion (豪宅), a royal palace. Every new taste, every additional interest, every fresh enthusiasm adds a room. Here are several rooms your house of life should have.
Art should be a desire for you to develop simply because the world is full of beautiful things. If you only understood how to enjoy them and feed your spirit on them,they would make you as happy as to find plenty of ham and eggs when you're hungry.
Literature, classic literature, is a beautiful, richly furnished room where you might find many an hour of rest and refreshment. To gain that love would go toward making you a rich person, for a rich person is not someone who has a library but who likes a library.
Music like Mozart's and Bach's shouldn't be absent. Real riches are of the spirit. And when you've brought that spirit up to where classical music feeds it and makes you a little drunk, you have increased your thrills and bettered them. And life is a matter of thrills.
Sports, without which you remain poor, mean a lot in life. No matter who you are, you would be more human, and your house of life would be better supported against the bad days, if you could, and did, play a bit.
Whatever rooms you might add to your house of life, the secret of enjoying life is to keep adding.
68.The author intends to tell us that ________.
A.true happiness lies in achieving wealth by fair means
B.big houses are people's most valued possessions
C.big houses can in a sense bring richness of life
D.true happiness comes from spiritual riches
解析:选D推理判断题。
根据文章第二段中的第一句“Real riches consist of well-developed and hearty capacities (能力) to enjoy life.”以及下文列举的艺术、文学、音乐和体育都是精神上的东西可知,D项符合文意。
A项“真正的幸福在于通过公平的方式获得财富”,B项“大房子是人们最珍爱的财产”,C项“大房子在某种意义上能使生活富裕”都与文意不符。
69.The underlined sentence in the second paragraph probably implies that ________.
A.however materially rich, they never seem to he satisfied
B.however materially rich, they remain spiritually poor
C.though their house is big, they prefer a simple life
D.though their house is big, it seems to be a cage
解析:选B推理判断题。
根据画线句中的“too big, too many, a hut”以及下文提到的精神上的东西——艺术、文学、音乐以及体育可知本句表达的意思是“不管物质多么丰富,他们依旧精神贫乏”,故B项符合题意。
A项“不管物质多么丰富,他们似乎从来不满意”,后面的内容理解偏了;C项“虽然房子很大,但他们更喜欢简朴的生活”是写实的,与文中的比喻意义不符合;D项“虽然房子很大,但它似乎是个笼子”在文中没有提到。
70.It can be learned from the passage that________.
A.more money brings more happiness
B.art is needed to make your house beautiful
C.literature can enrich your spiritual life
D.sports contribute mainly to your physical fitness
解析:选C推理判断题。
根据第一段的内容可知,如果不满足的话,有再多的钱也不会幸福,故A项与文意不符;B项“为了使你的房子美丽,艺术是需要的”是写实的,与文章的比喻不符;C项“文学可以丰富我们的精神生活”与文章第五段中的“...making you a rich person”相对应;由文章第七段中的“...mean a lot in life ... more human ...”可知,D项“体育主要使我们身体健康”没抓住主题。
71.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.House of Life
B.Secret of Wealth
C.Rest and Refreshment
D.Interest and Enthusiasm
解析:选A主旨大意题。
根据文中多次出现的“your house of life”以及在“your house of life”中加上“art, literature, music, sports”等房间可知,本文把我们的人生比作了我们住的房子,如果我们想幸福的话,就要多加一些精神上的房间。
