　　语篇解读本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了“我”在旅馆里看到一只苍蝇不停地试图穿过玻璃飞出去，这无疑是在自杀。它完全可以从旁边开着的门飞走。“我”从这件事得到启发：人们在遇到困难的时候，不应冒昧地尝试，应该有所突破，才有机会获得成功。1.A.seeing B．crying out

　　C．watching D．listening to

　　解析　句意为：我听到了绝望的声音。listen to“听到”。A、B、C三项均没有“听到”的意思。

　　答案　D

　　2．A. struggle B．cry

　　C．yell D．test

　　解析　struggle意为“挣扎，斗争”；cry意为“哭，喊叫”；yell意为“叫喊”；test意为“测试”。由第二段第四句中“the struggle is part of trap”的提示可知，此处应选用struggle。

　　答案　A

　　3．A. bird B．fly

　　C．insect D．worm

　　解析　bird意为“鸟”；fly意为“苍蝇”；insect意为“昆虫”；worm意为“爬虫”。由第二段第五句中的“the fly to try hard enough to succeed in...”可知，B项正确。

　　答案　B

　　4．A. experience B．direction

　　C．force D．attempt

　　解析　experience意为“经验，经历”；direction意为“方向”；force意为“武力”；attempt意为“尝试”。根据上下文语境可知，苍蝇正在尝试穿过玻璃飞出去。

　　答案　D

　　5．A. Thus B．So

　　C．Although D．However

　　解析　thus意为“因而”；so意为“所以”；although意为“虽然”；however意为“然而”。句意为：虽然苍蝇不断地尝试穿过玻璃窗，然而并不奏效。前后两句是转折关系。

　　答案　D

　　6．A. unusual B．likely

　　C．impossible D．common

　　解析　unusual“不同寻常的”；likely“可能的”；impossible“不可能的”；common“寻常的”。由常识可知，苍蝇是不可能成功穿过玻璃飞出去的。

　　答案　C

　　7．A. digging B．breaking

　　C．pushing D．jumping

　　解析　dig“挖掘”；break“打破”；push“推”；jump“跳”。短语break through意为“突破，冲破”，符合语境。

　　答案　B

　　8．A. kill B．die

　　C．lie D．stick

　　解析　kill“杀死”；die“死”；lie“撒谎，躺”；stick“粘贴”。由常识判断，如果苍蝇不断地撞击玻璃，就会死在那里。

　　答案　B

　　9．A. away B．far

　　C．near D．distant

　　解析　away“距离……远”；far“远的”；near“近的”；distant“远的”。away用在名词后，表示距离某地有多远，符合语境。

　　答案　A

　　10．A. dreams B．thinks of

　　C．misses D．longs for

　　解析　dream“梦想”；think of“考虑”；miss“怀念，错过”；long for“渴望”。句意为：只需十秒钟的飞行，这只苍蝇就能飞到外面它所渴望的世界。

　　答案　D

　　11．A. done B．owned

　　C．wasted D．planned

　　解析　do“做，完成”；own“拥有”；waste“浪费”；plan“计划”。根据语境可知，它之前的努力都白费了，故C项符合语境。

　　答案　C

　　12．A. aim B．trap

　　C．net D．goal

　　解析　aim“目的，目标”；trap“陷阱”；net“网”；goal“目的”。由第二段第四句中的“the struggle is part of the trap”可知，trap符合语境，即自我设置的陷阱。

　　答案　B

　　13．A. easy B．necessary

　　C．hard D．obvious

　　解析　easy“轻松的，容易的”；necessary“必要的”；hard“艰难的”；obvious“明显的”。句意为：突破的可能性就在那里，是那么简单。

　　答案　A

　　14．A. attempt B．anything

　　C．struggle D．something

　　解析　something“某事，某物”，常用于肯定句；anything“任何事物”，常用于否定句和疑问句。在表示请求、建议或征求意见的疑问句中常用something。

　　答案　D

　　15．A. that B．what

　　C．which D．where

　　解析　that可引导定语从句，也可引导名词性从句；what引导名词性从句；which引导形容词性从句；where可引导定语从句和状语从句。从句中不缺任何成分，且句中先行词是idea，所以其后要用that来引导同位语从句，对idea进行补充说明。

　　答案　A

　　16．A. sense B．difference

　　C．effect D．effort

　　解析　sense“感觉，意识”，常和make构成短语，make sense意为“有意义”；difference“区别，不同”；effect“影响”；effort“努力”。句意为：毫无疑问，这种方法对这只苍蝇来说是有意义的。

　　答案　A

　　17．A. of B．from

　　C．off D．to

　　解析　在solution的后面常跟to表示的不定式，是固定搭配。意为“解析法”。

　　答案　D

　　18．A. advice B．support

　　C．hope D．power

　　解析　advice“建议”；support“支持，支撑”；hope“希望”；power“力量”。此处与最后一段中的“If you_______ _your hopes for a．..”相照应，故用hope符合语境。

　　答案　C

　　19．A. risk B．get

　　C．make D．take

　　解析　risk“冒险，冒……的风险”；get“获得”；make“制作”；take“带走”。句意为：如果你冒险把你的希望放在比以往更艰难的突破上，你就可能有扼杀成功的机会。

　　答案　A

　　20．A. fail B．kill

　　C．achieve D．fulfill

　　解析　fail“失败”；kill“杀死”；achieve“获得，达到”；fulfill“执行，履行”由语境可知，此处应用kill。

　　答案　B

　　A、B、C和D中，选出最佳答案。

　　Many of us spend a great deal of time and energy trying to prove that we are right-and others are wrong. Many people believe that it’s their job to

　　others how their positions, statements, and points of view are

　　correcting. When someone says, “I really feel it’s important to:”, rather than jumping

　　15

　　. The people in your life will become less defensive and more

　　17 . They will appreciate you more than you could ever have 18

　　. You’ll discover the joy of joining in and witnessing other people’s

　　, which is far more rewarding than a battle of egos (自我). Starting today, let others be “
