  Down-to-earth persons__4__be important members of society.___5__ they don’t let their importance “go to their heads”.

There is___8__ way a person with his nose in the air can be down-to-earth.

  Americans __9__ another expression that means almost the same as down-to-earth. The expression is “both-feet-on-the-ground”.

Our lives are like the ground below us, solid and strong.

  【语篇解读】 这是一篇议论文。文章首先阐明“down-to-earth”是什么意思,然后描述“a down-to-earth person”是什么样的人,有什么样的品格特征,与“head-in-the-clouds”这类人有什么不同。文章最后提倡我们要脚踏实地地生活。

  1. A. pleasant

  B. sad

  C. common

  D. surprising

  解析 由下文“A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to...”以及上文的“honest, practical and easy to deal with”可以推断:遇到脚踏实地的人是一件令人惬意的事情。

  答案 A

  2. A. meets

  B. welcomes

  C. receives

  D. accepts

  解析 脚踏实地的人很容易与人相处,他们将其他人都视为平等的。accept...as“认为……是,把……当作”。

  答案 D

  3. A. case

  B. kind

  C. opposite

  D. example

  解析 由修饰“someone”的定语从句的内容可知,这类人与“a down-to-earth person”的性格相反。

  答案 C

  4. A. must

  B. may

  C. should

  D. will

  解析 “down-to-earth persons”可能是社会上的重要人物。“down-to-earth”是指人的内在品质,并不是重要人物所特有的。may在这里表推测(可能);must表推测时,可能性很大,表示“一定是”;should“应该”;will不表示推测。

  答案 B

  5. A. But

  B. So

  C. For

  D. And

  解析 consider... to be“认为……是”。其他选项与句意不符。

  答案 D

  7. A. said

  B. told

  C. asked

  D. made

  解析 句意为:据说那种自以为是的人常常会毫无理由地趾高气扬。be said to do“据说,人们说……”。其他选项与句意不符。

  答案 A

  8. A. some

  B. a

  C. no

  D. every

  解析 一个趾高气扬的人是没办法脚踏实地的。

  答案 C

  9. A. discover

  B. find

  C. make

  D. use

  解析 美国人使用另一种表达方式来表示“down-to-earth”的意思。

  答案 D

  10. A. understanding

  B. wish

  D. expectation

  解析 常识判断题。脚踏实地的人当然是对现实有很好的理解和认识。

  答案 A

  11. A. demands

  B. lacks

  C. has

  D. likes

  解析 这类人具备一种被称为“常识”的东西。has与上文的“with a good understanding of reality”和下文的“He may have dreams”相对应。

  答案 C

  12. A. fortunes

  B. dreams

  C. achievements

  D. disadvantages

  解析 这里的“dreams”与上文中的“reality”相对应,说明实际的人有梦想但不脱离实际。

  答案 B

  13. A. block

  B. protect

  C. own

  D. gain

  解析 block是“阻碍”的意思。脚踏实地的人善于把握现实,他们可能有梦想但不会让这些梦想阻碍他们对现实的认知。

  答案 A

  14. A. idea

  B. people

  C. attitude

  D. person

  解析 上文说到的是实际的人,这里当然是指与之相反的另一类人。后面谓语是单数,故不能选B。

  答案 D

  15. A. mind

  B. life

  C. body

  D. head

  解析 在这里“mind”是“想法,思维(方法)”的意思。

  答案 A

  16. A. Always

  B. Therefore

  C. However

  D. Sometimes

  答案 D

  17. A. Sharp

  B. All

  C. No

  D. Bad

  答案 A

  18. A. possible

  B. probable

  C. likely

  D. able

  解析 be likely to do sth.“很可能做某事”。上文提到的“down-to-earth”和“both-feet-on-the-ground”意义相同。

  答案 C

  19. A. Though

  B. Since

  C. When

  D. Unless

  解析 此空的选项与后一句“we are down-to-earth”相对应,故选C。

  答案 C

  20. A. towards

  C. over

  D. onto

  解析 本题考查介词用法,towards表“向,对”。
