D．with答案與解析本文為記敘文，主要介紹美國(guó)著名的人際關(guān)系學(xué)大師戴爾·卡耐基是如何通過(guò)演講克服自卑走向成功的故事。1．D此處表示這是在1906年他第一次認(rèn)識(shí)到的一種需要。故用recognize“認(rèn)出；認(rèn)識(shí)到；了解”。2．B根據(jù)下文提到的他的大學(xué)經(jīng)歷可知，此處表示他想接受教育。故用education。3．B他家庭很窮，他父親付不起食宿費(fèi)，因此他要騎馬往返學(xué)校。training“訓(xùn)練”；board“食宿”；teaching“教學(xué)”；equipment“設(shè)備”，根據(jù)句意可知B項(xiàng)正確。4．A他不但要在農(nóng)場(chǎng)工作，也要去上學(xué)。between“在……之間”符合語(yǔ)境。5．C他放棄許多學(xué)?；顒?dòng)，因?yàn)樗麤](méi)有時(shí)間或合適的服裝。此處表示原因，故用because。6．D根據(jù)下文的“Hehadonlyonegoodsuit.”可知，此處表示沒(méi)有參加這些活動(dòng)的服裝。7．B此處表示他為了進(jìn)足球隊(duì)努力過(guò)，但被教練拒絕。for表示目的。8．A只有l(wèi)ight“輕”才能符合教練拒絕的理由。此處表示他身材矮小，體重輕。flexible“靈活的”；optimistic“樂(lè)觀的”；outgoing“外向的”。9．C在這段時(shí)間里他慢慢地產(chǎn)生了自卑感。gain“獲得”；achieve“完成，實(shí)現(xiàn)”；develop“發(fā)展，培養(yǎng)，形成”；obtain“獲得”。此處表示慢慢培養(yǎng)的一種過(guò)程，故用develop。10．A他母親知道這會(huì)阻止他發(fā)揮他的潛能。prevent...fromdoing“阻止……做某事”。11．A根據(jù)下文第三段開(kāi)頭“Daletookhismother'sadvice.”可知，此處表示他母親對(duì)他的提議。故只有suggest合適。12．B母親認(rèn)為讓他參加辯論小組，通過(guò)演講可以讓他獲得信心。presence“在場(chǎng)”；practice“練習(xí)”；patience“耐心”；potential“潛能”。故B項(xiàng)正確。13．C他聽(tīng)從母親的建議，發(fā)奮努力，經(jīng)過(guò)幾次嘗試最終獲得成功。finally“最后；終于”符合句意。14．D這次成功對(duì)他來(lái)說(shuō)是一個(gè)轉(zhuǎn)折點(diǎn)。aturningpoint“一個(gè)轉(zhuǎn)折點(diǎn)”符合語(yǔ)境，表示他由自卑轉(zhuǎn)為自信。15．D根據(jù)上下文可知他通過(guò)演講最終獲得他所需要的信心。progress“進(jìn)步”；experience“經(jīng)驗(yàn)，經(jīng)歷”；competence“能力”；confidence“信心”。D項(xiàng)符合語(yǔ)境。16．C根據(jù)上文提到的speaking可知，他在演講方面獲得每一個(gè)最高榮譽(yù)。故用speech。17．C他開(kāi)始指導(dǎo)學(xué)生演講，而他們也反過(guò)來(lái)贏得了多場(chǎng)比賽。inreturn“作為回報(bào)”；inbrief“簡(jiǎn)言之”；inturn“反過(guò)來(lái)；依次”；infact“事實(shí)上”。根據(jù)句意可知C項(xiàng)正確。18．B根據(jù)句意可知，此處表示他努力克服自卑。convey“傳達(dá)”；overcome“克服”；undertake“承擔(dān)，從事”；build“建立”。根據(jù)句意可知B項(xiàng)正確。19．A此處表示通過(guò)演講來(lái)表達(dá)自己的想法，故要用express“表達(dá)”。20．D通過(guò)這段經(jīng)歷，他開(kāi)始明白對(duì)觀眾表達(dá)思想的這種能力能讓人樹(shù)立自信。他也明白，只要有了自信，他就能做成任何自己想做的事情；別人也是如此。with表示“具有，帶有”；空格后的it指代前面提到的confidence。Ⅲ.語(yǔ)法填空Susan：I'msogladtoseeyou,David.__1__hasbeensuchalongtime.Howareyou?David：I'mfine,andyou?Susan：I'mjustwonderful.God,timegoesbysoquickly!AreyougoingtotheairqualityconferenceinChicago?David：Iam.AndI'mreallygladtoseeyou.Itwasnotuntillastnight__2__Ifoundyournameintheconferencematerials,butitdidn'tcometomymindthatwewouldmeetontheplane.Susan：I'mafraidIhaven'thadtimetolookat__3__conferencematerialsverycarefully.Ihadnoideayouwerecoming,butIamcertainlygladtoseeyou.Iwasfeelingverynervousaboutgoingthere__4__friends.David：Icanimagine.MyEnglishhasgottennotsofluentsinceIreturnedfromtheStates,__5__I'mrathernervousmyself.ButIsawthatyouwouldgivethemostimportanttalkattheconference.Susan：__6__(frank)speaking,I'mscaredto__7__(die)aboutit.David：I'mjustgivingatalkinoneoftheworkshopsections,andIhopeIwon'tmakeallofyou__8__(disappoint)．Susan：ButyourEnglishismuch__9__(good)thanmine.David：Butyou'renowtheDirectoroftheAirQualityInstitute,soyou__10__knowthetechnicalterms.Susan：Maybe.ButIstillcan'tunderstandtotallyalotoftechnicaltermsinmyfield.答案與解析1．Itit代替時(shí)間。2．thatItwasnotuntil...that...強(qiáng)調(diào)句型。3．the該空表特指，故用定冠詞the。4．withoutwithoutfriends沒(méi)有朋友。5．so/thus/therefore該空表“因此”，故用so/thus/therefore。6．Franklyfranklyspeaking說(shuō)實(shí)話。7．deathbescaredtodeath嚇?biāo)馈?．disappointed形容詞作賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)。9．bettermuch后跟形容詞的比較級(jí)。10．mustmust表示肯定推測(cè)，表示“肯定”。Ⅳ.短文改錯(cuò)(2015·浙江省樂(lè)清市月考)Mymotherisateacherworkinakeyhighschool.Sheistoobusythatsheoftenhastogetupearlyandstayuplate.Inadditiontothis,shehardlyhasanytimestotakeexercise.Shehasbeenonpoorhealthforsometime.MyfatherandIareworriedthatshemayfallillifsheworkstoohard.ThesedaysI'mthinkingwhytodevelopmymother'sinterestinplayingsports.ConsideredthattodayisMother'sDay,Idecidedbuyapairofjoggingshoesforher.Isecretputthemonthedeskinherstudy.Whenmymotherenteredintoherstudythisevening,shelookedsurprised,butsheimmediatelyre
