weekends are too short，” try to think，“Im glad I rested over the weekend，so Im ready to make some improvement on that big project.”4.5._When someone is shouting at you angrily，throw the responsibility back at them by asking，“So what do you intend to do about it？” In most cases，plainers dont really want a solution.They just want to speak them out.If you make them aware that they themselves have to find the solutions，they will leave you alone and find someone else to plain to.If so，you will be happy.AFind solutions.BChange the responsibility.CYou have got a lot of plaints.DBy doing this，it will lead to positive behavior.EBut you can redirect the discussion in your own mind.FWhenever possible，escape from negative conversations.GYou will never know what they are going to talk about.答案：CDFEB.完形填空Dont let Auroras small stature (身高) fool youher spirit is strong.She is one of 140 chickens _1_ from a farm.When we saved her，she was tiny and sick and it seemed _2_ that she would survive.Having never got the right_3_，many of the chickens were sick and some _4_died.At a young age，Aurora and her sisters and brothers were _5_ by their mom.Luckily，another mother _6_ theircare.Aurora seemed the last to _7_ food and attention.She grew at a much slower _8_ than her brothers andsisters.Everything seemed _9_ her.At the young age of seven months，Aurora had lost twomoms and was _10_ to find a place with the other chickens.Aurora _11_ found fort from an old chicken named Margaret，staying under her wings during the cold nights，_12_ Margaret was so old that a few months later she died.Aurora，in her own way，thinks of Margaret.Every evening，you will find her in the _13_ spot where she kept Margaret pany._14_ when the other chickens try to _15_ her away，Aurora es back.As Aurora grew，we became _16_ at her love to simplylive.Nothing _17_ her.So remember，when life seems so _18_ that you canttake it，think of Aurora.She has lost two moms，watched hersisters and brothers die，and _19_ from serious illnesses.Yet she enjoys the small，sweet _20_ life has offeredsafety，food，warmth and good friendships.1A.raisedBpurchasedCrescuedDcollected2A.hopefulBproperCpossibleDunlikely3A.touch Bcare Cgift Dpartner4A.sadly BangrilyCcoldlyDcalmly5A.punished BrefusedCabandoned Dscolded6A.took on Bput forwardClooked after Dbrought about7A.get Beat Cdraw Doffer8A.cost Brate Cstandard Dvalue9A.for Baround Cabout Dagainst10A.arrangingBchoosingCstrugglingDaffording11A.lately BeventuallyCconstantly Dfrequently12A.unless Bso Cbecause Dbut13A.same BrelevantCsimilar Dnormal14A.Still BThusCEven DYet15A.clear Bput Cturn Dpush16A.nervous BamazedCexcited Ddisappointed17A.helped Battracted CimpressedDstopped18A.tough Bdifferent Csmooth Dboring19A.waked Bmade Crecovered Dlearned20A.chances BpleasuresCdreams Dservices【语篇解读】本文描述了一只小鸡为了生存与各种困难顽强抗争的故事。1解析：选C。根据下文中的“When we saved her”的提示可知，她是被从农场救出来的140只小鸡中的一只。raise“提起，养育”；purchase“购买”；rescue“营救”；collect“收集”。2解析：选D。根据空前的“she was tiny and sick”可知，小鸡生病了而且还很弱小，故此处是说她似乎不太可能活下来。hopeful“有希望的”；proper“恰当的”；possible“可能的”；unlikely“不大可能的”。3解析：选B。根据“many of the chickens were sick”可判断出，因为没有得到适当的照顾，很多小鸡才会生病甚至一些不幸死亡。touch“触摸”；care“照顾”；gift“礼物”；partner“搭档”。4解析：选A。参见上题解析。sadly“不幸地”；angrily“愤怒地”；coldly“冷漠地”；calmly“平静地”。5解析：选C。根据下文的“Luckily another mother”以及“Aurora had lost two moms”可以推断，第一个母亲遗弃了她和她的兄弟姐妹们。punish“惩罚”；refuse“拒绝”；abandon“遗弃”；scold“责骂”。6解析：选A。幸运的是，另外一个母亲决定照顾他们。take on“决定做，承担”；put forward“提出”；look after“照顾”；bring about“导致”。7解析：选A。根据下文“她比她的兄弟姐妹们长得慢”可知，此处是说她看起来是最后一个得到(get)食物和关心的。8解析：选B。根据本文第一句提到的“small stature(身高)”以及上一句提到的“last to _7_ food and attention”可以判断，Aurora生长的速度慢于她的兄弟姐妹们，所以个子小。cost“成本”；rate“速度”；standard“标准”；value“价值”。9解析：选D。根据上文的叙述可知，Aurora的生活不如意，因此一切似乎都在和她作对。against“逆，反对”，符合语境。10解析：选C。Aurora已经失去了两个妈妈，她需要努力找栖身之处。struggle“拼搏，努力”，符合语境。11解析：选B。此处与上一段相呼应，她在努力寻找之后，终于(eventually)找到了安慰。12解析：选D。虽然找到了安身之处，可是Margaret因为年老而死去了。此空前后之间在意思上是转折关系，因此选连词but。13解析：选A。Aurora每天晚上都到同样的地方去陪伴Margaret。此处用same表示她的执着。same“同样的”；relevant“有关的”；similar“类似的”；normal“正常的”。14解析：选C。甚至当别的小鸡推开她时，她会再回来。still“仍然”；thus“因此”；even“甚至”；yet“然而”。15解析：选D。参见上题解析。push away意为“推开”。16解析：选B。根据文章的第一句“Dont let Auroras small stature(身高)fool youher spirit is strong”可知，我们为Aurora只要活着的热情而感到惊讶。nervous“紧张的”；amazed“惊奇的”；excited“兴奋的，激动的”；disappointed“失望的”。17解析：选D。没有什么能使她停下来。help“帮助”；attract“吸引”；impress“给留下深刻印象”；stop“停止”。18解析：选A。综合上文，生活对于Aurora来说一直是艰难的，所以当生活似乎很艰难时，你可以想想她的遭遇。tough“艰难的，棘手的”；different“不同的”；smooth“顺利的”；boring“无趣的，乏味的”。19解析：选C。本句话的三个并列谓语都是Aurora的经历，所以选择recovered与“from serious illnesses”搭配。20解析：选B。尽管尝尽生活的艰辛，Aurora却得到了生活给予她的简单的甜蜜的乐趣，即后面所说的“safety，food，warmth and good friendships”。chance“机会”；pleasure“乐事”；dream“梦想”；service“服务”。.短文改错Hi Thomas，How is everything with you recently?
