So it was with really great__5__that I stood in church one recent Sunday,video camera in hand,and __6__my 68yearold father sweating in his shirt __7__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 __8__lessons.He could have gone on regretting it,__9__too many of us do.But though he was rooted in his past,he wasn't __10__there.When he retired three years ago,he__11__his church music director to take him as a student.
For a moment after my father sat down at the keyboard,he __12__stared down at his fingers.Has he forgotten the __13__? I worried,remembering those split seconds__14__ago when my mind would go blank and my fingers would __15__.But then came the beautiful melody(旋律),from the __16__fingers that once baited(装饵于) my fishing lines.And I__17__he had been doing what music teachers always stress:__18__the music and pretend the others aren't there.
“I'm __19__of him for starting something new at his age,” I said to my son Jeff.
“Yeah,and doing it so__20__,” Jeff added.
With his first recital,my father taught me more about courage and determination than all the words he used those 30plus years ago.

文章大意:文章通过一则事例说明在生活中总是吹毛求疵的话,日子会变得很艰难,人们应该学会宽容,并介绍了挑剔者重新获得对生活的爱和热情的技巧。
1.A.lonely B.great
C.quiet D.uneasy
答案:B 句意为:然而,当你不再忙于挑错时,生活会变得美好。lonely意为“孤独的”;great意为“美好的”;quiet意为“安静的”;uneasy意为“心神不宁的;担心的”。从4、5空所在的句子People were always doing things that annoyed her,...可以看出,喜欢找茬的人是不开心的,而相反,如果不忙于挑错,生活会很美好,故选B项。
2.A.received B.answered
C.expected D.rejected
答案:A 背景常识题。句意为:几年前我收到一位叫克里的17岁女孩的来信……后文介绍信件的内容,所以这里表达的是“收到了”来信。receive意为“收到”;answer意为“回答”;expect意为“期望”;reject意为“拒绝”。故选A项。
3.A.threatened B.interrupted
C.bothered D.spoiled
答案:C 句意为:……几乎总是被(各种)事情困扰。threaten意为“威胁”;interrupt意为“打断”;bother意为“烦扰”;spoil意为“溺爱;宠坏”。再结合该空后的“人们总是做各种各样的事情烦扰她”,其中annoy与bother意义相近,故选C项。
4.A.anything B.everything
C.something D.nothing
答案:D 句意为:人们总是做各种各样的事情烦扰她,从来没有什么事情足够好(令她满意)。根据句意可知选nothing,表示完全否定。
5.A.caring B.boring
C.interesting D.surprising
答案:B caring意为“关心他人的”;boring意为“令人厌烦的,乏味的”;interesting意为“有趣的”;surprising意为“令人惊讶的”。根据该空前一句“她对自己及朋友都很挑剔,总是吹毛求疵”可知,她是个“令人厌烦的人”。故选B项。
6.A.attitude B.plan
C.measure D.explanation
答案:A attitude意为“态度”;plan意为“计划”;measure意为“措施”;explanation意为“解释”。克里的挑剔是一种对待生活的“态度”,且本段介绍克里的一个朋友发生了事故,这件事迫使她改变了自己的态度。故选A项。
7.A.urgent B.unnecessary
C.certain D.impossible
答案:D urgent意为“急迫的”;unnecessary意为“没必要的”;certain意为“确定的”;impossible意为“不可能的”。下文告诉我们,克里在朋友出事的前一天晚上,按自己的生活态度把朋友生活上的各个方面数落了一遍,态度极为苛刻。这让克里觉得自己的所作所为难以接受,很难面对自己曾经对朋友这样吹毛求疵的事实。
8.A.occasion B.event
C.accident D.adventure
答案:C 本句话介绍的是克里在事故发生之前对朋友挑剔的事情,又根据段首的a horrible accident可知“事故”是一个时间节点,由此可推断这里是表达“在事故前一天”。故选C项。
9.A.memory B.notice
C.evidence D.choice
答案:D memory意为“记忆”;notice意为“注意”;evidence意为“证据”;choice意为“选择”。由语境可知,这里指的是“选择”男友。故选D项。
10.A.hear B.contribute
C.express D.admit
答案:C 根据句意“……以及其他各种她觉得需要表达(她的意见)的事情”,句中9空前的criticizing意思是“批评”,与选项C“表达(某人的意见)”意义相近。故选C项。
11.A.aware of B.afraid of
C.curious about D.confused about
答案:A 句意为:直到她朋友严重受伤后,她才意识到自己挑剔的习惯。(become)aware of意为“(开始)意识到”;(become)afraid of意为“(变得)害怕”;(become)curious about意为“(变得)对……好奇”;(become)confused about意为“(变得)对……困惑”。此处指的是朋友的遭遇使她意识到了自己的这一坏习惯,故选A项。
12.A.discuss B.realize
C.judge D.settle
答案:C 句意为:很快,她学会了欣赏生活而不是刻薄地去评判每一件事。judge“评判”与前文中的criticize相呼应,与appreciate“欣赏”形成对比,表明她的态度的转变。故选C项。
13.A.family B.life
C.career D.education
答案:B 句意为:她能够把这种新的智慧运用到生活的其他方面。family意为“家庭(成员)”;life意为“生活”;career意为“事业”;education意为“教育”。根据12空前的appreciate life可知,该空选life最合适。故选B项。
14.A.so B.or
C.but D.for
答案:C 句意为:也许我们大部分人并不是极端地吹毛求疵,但当我们坦率起来时,也可能会尖锐地评判这个世界。so表结果;or表选择;but表转折;for表原因。根据语境可知这里表转折,故选C项。
15.A.proud B.sure
C.hopeful D.critical
答案:D 根据句中的when we're honest可知,每个人都可能会尖锐地评判(criticize)这个世界。其余选项中,proud意为“自豪的”;sure意为“确信的”;hopeful意为“有希望的”,均不符合语境。故选D项。
16.A.face B.create
C.solve D.ignore
答案:D 本句话是对首句的进一步解释,句意为:我不是建议你忽略问题,或者假装事情要比他们本身更好,不过仅仅是允许事情按自己的规律发展……句中的or表示选择,根据句中的not suggesting和pretend可知用“忽略”合适。
17.A.rarer B.better
C.stranger D.worse
答案:B 根据上题的解释,“假装”可能是事情的好的方面,因此用better合适。
18.A.at least B.at last
C.by far D.so far
答案:A 句意为:……不过仅仅是允许事情按自己的规律发展——至少在大多数时候……at least意为“至少”;at last意为“最后”;by far意为“(与形容词、副词的比较级或最高级连用)最;无疑;很”;so far意为“到目前为止”。根据语境可知,修饰时间状语“大多数时间”用at least搭配更合适。故选A项。
19.A.task B.deal
C.result D.duty
答案:B 背景常识题。句意为:……尤其是当它不是真正的大事时。task意为“任务”;deal意为“协议;交易”;result意为“结果”;duty意为“义务”。对比前面的things可知用deal最合适,not a big deal表示“不是什么大事”,故选B项。
20.A.practice B.speech
C.rest D.pity
答案:A 句意为:训练自己“忍住不说”,经过一点点练习,你会真正地学会顺其自然。practice与train对应,符合语境,故选A项。

What I finally came to __11___ was one day, several months before, when some students were __12___ reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke __13__, and to encourage her to raise her voice, I had said, “Speak up.Simon's the expert on this.He is the __14___ one you have to convince, and he can't hear you in the __15___ of the room.” That was it.From that day on, Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention, __16__ more, and became happy.And it was all because he __17__to be the last kid in the last row.The boy who most needed __18___ was the one who took the last seat that day.

文章大意:本文主要讲述了“我”作为一位新老师所经历的一件意想不到的事情:一个成绩非常差,书写糟糕的孩子的母亲竟然来感谢我对孩子的教导。感谢“我”给孩子带来的改变,“我”经过一番思索之后才恍然大悟。
1.A.cleaner B.reporter
C.monitor D.teacher
答案:D 词汇复现及逻辑推理题。根据下文中提到的I gave an honest account of the students' work.和后面的描述可知,“我”是一名新老师。
2.A.Or B.And
C.But D.So
答案:C 逻辑推理题。根据上面的叙述the grades were awfully low和He couldn't read his own handwriting可知:他的成绩差并且字也不好看,“但是”他是一个“bright”的学生。由此可知,上下句之间表示转折关系。
3.A.courage B.abilities
C.feelings D.dream
答案:B 逻辑推理题。他很聪明,能用成人的理解力去讨论成人的问题,他的作品(写的字)绝不可能反映出他的能力(ability)。
4.A.desperate B.responsible
C.unprepared D.unsuitable
答案:C 逻辑推理题。前文写到手心都是汗,后文提到Simon妈妈的吻以及感谢,加上第一段描述孩子成绩差,“我”又是个新老师,所以完全没有预料到(unprepared)Simon妈妈竟然是这么热情。
5.A.Because of B.In spite of
C.Apart from
D.As for
答案:A 逻辑推理题。前句Simon的妈妈说是来谢谢“我”,而谢谢的原因从后句可以推出来,Simon变得不一样,会交朋友等,这都是由于“我”。 because of由于,因为。
6.A.loved B.envied
C.pleased D.criticized
答案:A 词语辨析题。从前后文语境来看,孩子是喜欢(love)老师的。envy嫉妒;please取悦;criticize批评。
