Building Trust in a Relationship Again
Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences. __1__ Trust is a risk. But you can't be successful when there's a lack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake.
Unfortunately, we've all been victims of betrayal. Whether we've been stolen from, lied to, misled,or cheated on, there are different levels of losing trust. Sometimes people simply can't trust anymore. __2__ It's understandable, but if you're willing to build trust in a relationship again, we have some steps you can take to get you there.
•__3__ Having confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your wellbeing.
•__4__ If you've been betrayed, you are the victim of your circumstance. But there's a difference between being a victim and living with a “victim mentality”. At some point in all of our lives, we'll have our trust tested or violated.
• You didn't lose “everything”. Once trust is lost, what is left? Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle, look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life. __5__ Instead, it's a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness.
A. Learn to really trust yourself.
B. It is putting confidence in someone.
C. Stop regarding yourself as the victim.
D. Remember that you can expect the best in return.
E. They've been too badly hurt and they can't bear to let it happen again.
F. This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships.
G. Seeing the positive side of things doesn't mean you're ignoring what happened.
答案与解析
语篇解读 本文介绍三种策略,帮助我们重新建立信任关系。
1.B 根据上句“信任是我们从过去的经历中获取的一种行为”和下句“信任是一种冒险”可知,此空填B,本句是对第一句话的进一步解释:“信任是信赖某人”。
2.E 上句“有时,人们简直无法再信任(别人)了”;下句“这是可以理解的”,由此可推测本句是解释人们无法信任某人的原因。故填E。
3.A 由下句“对自己有信心能帮助你做出更好的选择”可知,前一句应是“学会真正信任自己”,故填A。
4.C 由本段最后一句“在我们生活中的某些时候,我们的信任会被检验或打破”可知,此处应填C,意为“不要认为自己是个受害者”。
5.G 副词“Instead”表示转折。可推测这里应是“看到事物积极的一面并不意味着你无视已经发生的事”。故填G。
三、语法填空
(2016·辽宁大连测试)
In your daily life, there are many examples where your parents control hundreds __1__ things for you when you are a kid, such as the clothes you wear, the food you eat, where you go and how you get there. It is a good thing. Kids need this kind of __2__ (protect) and help because they are not old enough to take care of __3__ and make decisions __4__ (correct). But with you growing __5__ (old), the part of being a teen is developing your own identity—one that __6__ (separate) from your parents'. Different attitudes towards events like partying may lead to arguments, because your parents will always want to protect you and keep you safe, no matter how old you are. As __7__ result, your parents feel it hard to get used to the new situation with __8__ (increase) anxiety. What kids should keep in mind is __9__ in most cases, your parents can relate to what you're going through because they __10__ (be) teens once.
答案与解析
语篇解读 在日常生活中,小孩子需要父母替他们做许多事情。但是随着孩子的长大。父母是不是应该适当放手呢?
1.of 考查数量词的用法。hundreds是复数形式,又与名词连用,故应加of。
2.protection 考查名词。this kind of后应接名词作宾语。
3.themselves 考查反身代词。此处指小孩子没有大到足以照顾“自己”,故用themselves。
4.correctly 考查副词。此处应用副词修饰动词短语make decisions。
5.older 考查形容词的比较级。此处指“长大”,故用比较级。
6.is separated 考查动词的时态和语态。separate...from...是固定结构,表示“区分/区别……与……”。此处说的是一般性的情况,故用一般现在时;又因identity与separate是动宾关系,故用被动语态。
7.a 考查固定搭配。as a result意为“结果”。
8.increasing 考查现在分词。此处应用现在分词作定语,increasing表示“增长的”。
9.that 考查表语从句。所填词引导表语从句,无词义,不作成分,故用that。
10.were 考查动词时态。由once可知,此处应用一般过去时,加之they为复数形式,故用were。

________________________________________________________________________
Thank you!
范文
Dear_friends,_nowadays_we_can_still_see_some_behavior_against_public_morals. As is often the case, people tend to talk loud in public places, annoying others around. Spitting and littering rubbish can be seen everywhere. What's more, it's common that the young or middleaged sit on the bus while the elderly stand.
Measures must be taken to change this situation. First of all, as students, we should manage our own behavior and help people around us form good habits. Meanwhile, it is necessary for the government and authorized organizations to encourage people to behave properly.
Don't underestimate the role you can play. Do remember, we can make a difference! Take action right now!
Thank_you!
