　　Ⅲ.阅读理解

　　My wife passed away a few years ago，and I went through the worst time in my life.I even wanted to kill myself.Just for my kids，I had to continue to live and work as a small­town doctor at my medical clinic in Hawaii.My kids had gone to live on the mainland，and I was alone.Then they asked me to have a family trip.

　　On our trip, we turned on the TV at the motel and saw the second plane crash into the World Trade Center. Seeing it falling down，I said to my kids：“I'm going to Afghanistan.”And a few weeks later，International Medical Corps sent me to set up 20 clinics in provinces where people had no health care.In these field clinics surrounded by frightening shoots or deadly bombs，we were eventually serving 27,000 patients a month in a very busy schedule.Tired and nervous，I gradually had a sense of achievement, a sense of purpose，and my depression went away.

　　In the years to follow，I went to Indonesia after the tsunami(海啸)，Pakistan after the earthquakes，Sudan after the civil war, and Iraq after more and more bombs.Each time after disasters one after another, hundreds of people were killed，wounded and many more had to flee.We once set up movable clinics in an area with 19,000 refugees,_and it was supposed to hold 13,000 originally.Flu broke out, one of the biggest killers of kids in refugee camps, and it spread like wildfire.Water and food were also serious problems.“Adventures or not？” I often asked myself.

　　When my wife passed away，I thought my life was done.But in reality, it was just getting started.At the end of her life，she went unconscious.I held her head in my hands and told her of all the places we would visit and the exciting adventures we would have.

　　I think about the moment many times during my “adventures”．I didn't know how predictive those words would be.But I know that she is still with me.

　　31．Where has the doctor been in the past few years?

　　A．Some countries where he could set up clinics.

　　B．Some African countries where flu broke out.

　　C．The places where the earthquakes happened.

　　D．The places where the horrible disasters struck.

　　32．How would the doctor describe his life after he had worked in Afghanistan?

　　A．Tired and troublesome.

　　B．Busy and risky.

　　C．Meaningful and helpful.

　　D．Frightening and depressing.

　　33．The underlined word “refugees” means people________.

　　A．who are robbed, killed, or wounded

　　B．who suffer from flu in movable clinics

　　C．who like to take adventures

　　D．who have lost homes because of disasters

　　B．What the doctor said to his wife before her death became reality.

　　C．The doctor's adventures made him understand the love of his wife.

　　D．With the true love of his wife，the doctor started to change his life.

　　Ⅳ.任务型读写

　　请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。

　　注意：每个空格只填1个单词。

　　Almost every career requires such skills as listening, speaking, reading, writing, decision making, researching, reasoning, creativity, persuasion, leadership, interpersonal communication, and organization. In addition, a number of characteristics that may be important for specific jobs: achievement, aggressiveness, ambition, dependability, discipline, honesty, initiative, motivation, people orientation, persistence, responsibility, self­confidence, self­starting, sensitivity, sincerity, tenacity, and tough­mindedness. The way you acquire these skills and behaviors is, to a great extent, up to you. Without them, no matter how bright and knowledgeable you may be, landing a top job is of extreme difficulty, if not impossible. The most likely way to obtain these skills and behaviors is through courses, reading, internships, part­time or full­time employment, extracurricular activities, and participation in community functions.

　　Knowing what an employer is looking for in a potential employee can help an applicant to prepare for an interview. An interviewer for a major corporation was asked these questions: What specific skills are you looking for in applicants? And how do you identify these skills? He responded：

　　Most important for us in the way of skills is the ability to communicate—can people speak clearly? Can they articulate the kind of person they believe themselves to be? In what kind of work situations do they perform well? What are their strengths and weaknesses? We want to know about the personal qualities of the individual, so I try to ask questions to draw them out and attempt to find out if they have a sense of themselves. What I’m looking for is an ability to verbalize an idea in clear, simple, understandable language. I’m also looking for the ability to listen attentively and then to be able to respond to an idea or thought that has been presented to them. If they do have good communication skills, they will be able to do this logically and succinctly.

　　I am looking for creativity —can they be spontaneous? I will ask some “off­the­wall” questions just to see if this throws them. How do they respond in these tough situations—can they be creative with their answers? This is very important when they are out in business situations with customers. They will have to respond to very sudden changes and problem­solving situations that they are not necessarily familiar with, and I want to know if they can handle them.

　　What we look for the most are personal qualities—assertiveness, self­motivation, drive, ambition, and a competitive instinct. They should be high achievers and want to work hard. I can usually tell about these qualities from the way the person presents himself or herself and some of the activities they have engaged in. I pick up things from the applications and resume—how they have written them and the kinds of things they say. How they present their experiences is often very informative. For example, an assertive person will say, “I can do these things” and “I decided on this course of action，” whereas a more passive person might say, “These are the experiences I have had.” All of these things describe the person in some way.

　　答案

　　课时作业(二十四)

　　.1.D　考查主谓一致和语态。not only…but also结构作主语时，谓语动词的单复数遵循“就近原则”；动词blame表示“责怪某人”时用be to blame。

　　2．C　本题考查含what的句式辨析。What if…？要是……该怎么办？What about…？……怎么样？What for…？为何目的？ 本句的意思是：假若困难的事情发生了，我还不能调整自己怎么办？

　　3．D　考查定语从句和强调句型。第一个空可用that，属于强调句型的特殊疑问句，结构是 “特殊疑问词＋is/ was it that…”；第二个空要填where，是定语从句。

　　4．C　考查定语从句和表语从句。which在定语从句中作told的宾语； 第二空的that引导表语从句。当主句部分出现the reason 或 why时，表语从句不用because引导，because只用来引导原因状语从句。

　　5．C　句意：不管什么时候，只要有可能，约翰就会炫耀他日语说得多么好。show up意为“露出，显出；出席，到场”；show sb.around意为“带某人参观”；show off意为“炫耀，卖弄”；show sb.out意为“领某人出去/离开”。

　　6．A　句意：那个英国人很擅长写和读，最重要的是对其他人很和蔼。 above all最重要的是，首先，相当于most important of all。first of all首先(强调顺序)；in all总共；after all毕竟，终究。

　　7．D　此处考查定语从句。先行词为time，从句中缺少状语，所以要用关系副词when来引导从句。

　　8．B　考查倒装句。not only…but also…引导对等的部分(主语除外)放在句首时，句子要部分倒装。本句意思是： 事实上，我们不但要集中注意力，而且还要把它贯穿到生活的每个层面。

　　9．C　考查交际用语。Take it easy “别紧张”，用来表示安慰。

　　10．D　用those来指代上面谈到的可数名词复数parents；call on sb. to do sth. 号召某人做某事； shoulder one's responsibility承担责任。

　　.飞机上，一位乘客要求空姐端杯水来。由于忙，空姐忘了此事。大约三十分钟后，当那位乘客发出求助服务的信号时，她才把水送了过去，结果被拒绝了。空姐为表歉意，多次面带微笑地主动问他是否需要帮助，但那位乘客对她不理睬。下飞机时，乘客在意见簿上写了些什么，这令那位空姐十分担忧。但是，当她打开意见簿时，她立刻转忧为喜了。

　　11．B　take拿走，带走，有方向性；bring带来，拿来，有方向性；carry手拿肩扛，随身携带，无方向性。结合语境，B项合适。

　　12．C　三十分钟后，那位乘客发出求助服务的信号。

　　13．D　be kept…表被动，意为：被搞得……，作为空姐，飞行中为乘客提供服务必定被弄得忙个不停。若选用tired，silent，calm只能用keep的主动形式。

　　14．A　上文中乘客需要的是水。句意：她那么忙，以至于忘记送水给那位乘客了。

　　15．B　考查动词词组。hold on请稍候，别挂断；hold up耽搁，延误；hold out维持，持续；hold down抑制，压制，根据语境可知，乘客被耽误吃药了，故选B。

　　16．C　考查介词。for“为了……，因为”；about大约，关于；with带着，拿着；in“在……里，用……，穿着……”，本句话的意思是：她端着一杯水匆忙朝那位乘客走过来。

　　17．A　按理说，那位乘客应该接受她匆忙送过来的那杯水。但他拒绝了，这令她感到很吃惊。

　　18．D　在随后的数小时飞行中。on the air(无线电)广播；on the flight在飞行中。

　　19．B　上下文都有提示passenger(乘客)。

　　20．C　从下文可知，为表歉意，空姐每次从他旁边经过时，都面带微笑地主动问他是否需要帮助。

　　21．A　但那位乘客对空姐表现出的歉意根本不理睬，表现得十分生气。

　　22．C　get off the plane从飞机上下来。

　　23．A　hand sb.sth.＝hand sth.to sb.把……递给某人；lend sb.sth.＝lend sth.to sb.把……借给某人。B、C项明显不合适。故A正确。

　　24．D　A、C项不符合语境，故排除。B项的angry生气，发怒，用在此处也显得过分；再加上空姐自知理亏，乘客提意见应是情理之中的事情，故不可能生气。只因担心影响自己以后的工作而伤心。

　　25．B　sharp形容词，尖酸的，刻薄的。

　　26．D　空姐虽然担心那位乘客在意见簿上写些对自己不利的话，但还是面带微笑地把意见簿递给了他。

　　27．C　从下文呈现的乘客意见来看，此空只能是打开意见簿。tore是tear的过去式，撕毁，用在此处不妥。同样，hid躲藏，藏起来，也不合上下文逻辑。

　　28．B　crack a smile意思是：转悲为喜；破涕为笑。故此处用for表示转悲为喜的原因。

　　29．A　in all一共，总共；above all首要的，最为重要的；or else否则，要不然；or so大约。通过下文两次提到twelve一词，可知12次真诚的微笑是一个确切的数字。故A项正确。

　　30．D　最后一段是作者对上一段末句话发出的感慨。句意：是啊，任何人都不会拒绝来自他人的12次真诚的微笑。

　　.妻子的去世给作者造成了难以名状的心灵创伤，他几经辗转，全心投入到救援队伍中。紧张而劳累的工作抚慰了作者的内心。

　　31．D　推理判断题。根据文章中所提到的阿富汗、印度尼西亚、巴基斯坦、苏丹以及伊拉克等国家当时的情况可知他在几年中所去过的地方都发生了可怕的灾难。

　　32．C　推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句可推测作者觉得自己的人生有益他人，很有意义。

　　33．D　猜测词义题。上一句提到灾难接二连三地发生后，成百上千的人伤亡，更多的人不得不逃生。再结合本句中提到的流动诊所以及具体数字可推测此词的含义是“难民”，即因为灾难而失去家园的人们。

　　34．B　推理判断题。结合倒数第二段后半部分中的内容以及最后一段中的内容可推测作者在妻子去世之前对她说的话如今变成了现实。

　　.35.Required　由文章开头“Almost every career requires such skills…”中的require转化而来。

　　36．however　根据第一段“Without them, no matter how bright and knowledgeable you may be，…”中的no matter how可知。

　　37．difficult　由第一段“…landing a top job is of extreme difficulty…”中的difficulty转化而来。

　　38．preparations　由第二段开头“Knowing what an employer is looking for in a potential employee can help an applicant to prepare for an interview.”中的prepare转化而来。

　　39．Creativity　根据第四段开头“I am looking for creativity —can they be spontaneous？”中的creativity可知。

　　40．Articulate　根据第三段中的“Can they articulate the kind of person they believe themselves to be？”中的articulate可知。

　　41．Certain　根据第三段中的“In what kind of work situations do they perform well？”可推知。

　　42．creative 　根据第四段中的“How do they respond in these tough situations—can they be creative with their answers？”中的creative可知。

　　43．Respond　根据第四段中的“They will have to respond to very sudden changes and problem­solving situations that…”中的respond可知。

　　44．personal　根据最后一段中的“What we look for the most are personal qualities—assertiveness, self­motivation, drive, ambition, and a competitive instinct.”中的personal可知。
