Ⅳ. 完形填空
［2012嘉兴模拟］
We should show respect to everybody, especially our elders because they are ahead of us—in age, in wisdom and maturity, in experience and education. Our
1
have done a lot for us, directly or indirectly and most of us
2
everything to their kindness and love.
When we
3
them respect, whether it is by bowing to them, or
4 them with a smile, or offering them any help they need, it is one way of
5
our own love and gratitude to them.
6
, elders have also been through all the years you are
7
and know a little more about the world than you do.
It is
8
that you do not agree with the belief of your elders, but this is nothing new. All younger generations have always
9
with their elders and it is these differences that bring changes in human
10
. However much you disagree with them, give them credit for their
11
.
With changing times and
12
influences, youngsters no longer know what is interpreted as disrespect to elders. Youngsters should
13
express their views and if there are arguments, they should not
14
their voices.
If there is no space on sofas or chairs, children will immediately
15
their places, and sit on the carpet. In buses and trains, youngsters are
16
to give up their places to elder people. This is not a
17
of who has more rights. It is simply that those who are younger have the strength to bear
18
, or tolerate unpleasantness, so it is natural to show consideration to those who are older and perhaps at a
19
disadvantage.
When you do simple things as a mark of respect, elders become
20
that youngsters care for them, and they respond with affection and kindness.
1. A. youngsters
B. elders
C. parents
D. juniors
2. A. devote
B. owe
C. pay
D. contribute
3. A. show
B. explain
C. exhibit

D. suggesting
6. A. However
B. Therefore
C. Besides
D. Though

D. worrying out
8. A. true
B. likely
C. reasonable
D. strange

B. get rid of
C. give up
D. send out
16. A. expected
B. forced
C. needed
D. reminded
17. A. doubt
B. question
C. wonder
D. challenge
18. A. suffering
B. upset
C. trouble
D. discomfort
19. A. serious
B. light
C. heavy
D. slight

【参考范文】
Sunday Oct. 2nd, 2011Sunny
Yesterday I joined a classmate party. I was very happy to see my old friends, who I hadn’t met for years. And I drank a lot.
After the party, I drove home though my classmates had tried to persuade me not to, because I always believe that as a skilled driver, drinking a little does no harm to driving. As the night got darker, the wine began to take effect. All of a sudden, I cracked my car against a sign on the road.
Unluckily, a policeman was around and came towards me. He fined me and said “I hope that you would learn that drunk driving is a terrible thing. You can end up hurting yourself, and other innocent people. ”
I realized that the effects of drunk driving can be serious and long lasting for all those involved. Many people who drink and drive do not think of the serious consequences of their action until it is too late.
So I appeal to everybody never to drink and drive!
Cherish your life!
