111课时知能训练.完形填空I had arrived at the airport about 30 minutes before the checkin.It had been a very _1_three days for me with lots of meetings.So I was glad to have the _2_time to make my notes on what I needed to do the following day.But then came the _3_that my flight had to be _4_because something went wrong with the plane.As I sat waiting for my _5_to be called，I reflected on my last meeting of the day.It was not a business meeting but rather a very enjoyable _6_with an old business friend I had not seen for over 12 years.Our lunch was spent recalling times gone by and filling each other in what had happened in our lives over the last 12 years.We both laughed and smiled as we recalled the good times and the great experiences we had _7_together.It was great to have this additional time to replay in my _8_what we had talked about.I realized just how important it was to have regular _9_of the good times in our life.I was lucky enough to have had the chance to take a short _10_and reflect on the good things that had happened in my life over 12 years.It was somewhat like looking at an old photo album _11_ in a cupboard in your house.There before your eyes are lots of wonderful _12_ that take you back to times and places，and most importantly to those people who are in the _13_.My flight home was finally called three hours later.I smiled as I boarded the plane and realized that I was not at all _14_ about the delay in the flight，as I had been able to spend the time _15_ on the good times from days gone by.1A.importantBbusyCquick Duseful【解析】由with lots of meetings可知应是很繁忙的(busy)三天。【答案】B2A.pleasant BsatisfyingChappy Dextra【解析】第一句说作者在检票前30分钟到达机场，所以就有额外的(extra)时间来计划接下来需要做的事情。【答案】D3A.announcement BdeclarationCopening Dspeech【解析】分析句意可知，这时机场用广播发布“口头公告”，故用announcement表示。declaration“声明，宣言”；speech“演讲”；opening“空缺，开端”，均不符合题意。【答案】A4A.waited BcancelledCtaken Ddelayed【解析】飞机出了问题，带来的应是航班“延误”或者被“取消”的结果，但从下文可知，飞机航班并没有被取消，所以选D项。delayed“延误”。【答案】D5A.flight BturnCname Dorder【解析】飞机没有来，“我”坐在那里应该是“等待航班”。flight“飞行，班机”；turn“转动，轮流”；name“名字”；order“命令，次序”。【答案】A6A.negotiation BlunchCparty Ddiscussion【解析】下一句中出现了lunch照应前文。本句意为“那不是一个商务会议，而是我与一个业务上的朋友的一次愉快的午餐，而且我与这个朋友已经12年没见面了”。negotiation“协商，谈判”；discussion“讨论”；party“集会，聚会”，均不符合语境。【答案】B7A.spent BmetCmanaged Dshared【解析】we had.together为定语从句，修饰the good times and the great experiences。spend，meet，manage都不能与先行词times和experiences很好地搭配。而share表示“分享，共有”，可以与其构成完整的句意，即“回忆起以前我们一起度过的快乐时光，我们都很开心”。【答案】D8A.thought BspiritCflight Dmind【解析】有这样额外的时间来回想我们的对话实在是太好了。回想应是在大脑中，所以mind“头脑，精神”合适。thought“思考，思想”；spirit“精神，心灵”，这两个选项不符合题意；flight“班次”，作者还没坐飞机，显然错误。【答案】D9A.time BplansCreminders Dremains【解析】这里说的是作者的感受“我还认识到经常回顾生命中的快乐时光的重要性”。reminder“引起回忆的事物，提醒人的事物”；time“时间”；plan“计划”；remains“残余，遗迹”。【答案】C10A.way BcutCmethod Dbreak【解析】从上下文可知，作者认为自己很幸运有这样一个机会来放松一下并回忆过去12年的快乐时光。break恰好能与take搭配，意思是“放松，休息”。way“路线，方式”；cut“切，削，削减”；method“方法”。【答案】D11A.stored away Bput onCset about Dgiven out【解析】这就有点像是在看储藏在家中柜子里的老相册一样。store away“贮藏，保存”；put on“穿上”；set aside“留出，撤销”；give out“分发，用尽”。【答案】A12A.celebrations BmemoriesCawards Dpresents【解析】看着相册，展现在眼前的应是许多精彩的“回忆”。celebration“庆祝，庆典”；award“奖品”；memory“记忆，回忆”；present“礼物”。【答案】B13A.cupboard BbooksCchildhood Dphotos【解析】上文提到了photo album，显然文中说的应该是“照片”中的人物。呈现在你眼前的是许多精彩的回忆，它们带你回到过去的时光和场景，更重要的是，它们让你想起相片中的那些人。【答案】D14A.upset BhappyCcrazy Dsurprised【解析】通过整篇文章我们分析作者此时的心情应是很愉快的。句意为“我微笑着登上了飞机，并且意识到我对于飞机的晚点并不心烦”。happy“高兴的”；crazy“疯狂的”；surprised“惊讶的”；upset“心烦意乱的”。结合句意可知upset合适。【答案】A15A.taking BseizingCreflecting Dbringing【解析】作者心情好的原因应是“有时间去回顾那些逝去的美好时光”。第二段和第三段都提到了reflect on这个短语，意思是“仔细考虑，沉思”。take on“呈现”；seize on“抓住”；bring on“促使，导致”。【答案】C.语法填空Few people would even think of beginning a new job at the age of 76，1._one of Americas most famous artists did just that.Anna Mary Robertson，better known as “Grandma Moses”，turned to painting 2._she was too old to work on her farm.Grandma Moses was crazy about painting soon after she picked it up and worked hard at it.She painted 3._(care) and her works were nice.She first painted only to please 4._，and then began to sell her works 5._a little money.In 1993，a collector，Louis Caldor，happened to see several of Grandma Moses works 6._(hang) in a shop.He liked them，7._(buy) them at once，and set out to look for 8._.Caldor held 9._ show to introduce the works of Grandma Moses to other artists.Grandma Moses，10._was worldfamous，died on December 13,1961，at the age of 101.【答案】1.but前后是转折关系。2because/when后面接的从句是她转行开始画画的原因。从句也可视作时间状语从句，可填when。3carefully修饰谓语动词painted，作状语，用副词。4herself由后文“开始卖作品给别人”可知，她先前只是自己画给自己看，取悦于自己。5for表示交换用for，sell sth.for.意为“以多少钱卖某物”。6hanging是非谓语动词短语作定语，修饰名词works，因works与hang(悬挂)是主动关系，故用现在分词短语作定语。7bought与liked和set out并列，一起作谓语，时态也应一致。8more因他喜欢她的画，所以他开始寻找“更多” Grandma Moses 的作品。9a为了把Grandma Moses 的作品介绍给别的艺术家，所以他“举行了一次展览”。10who引导定语从句并在从句中作主语，先行词是Grandma Moses。.阅读理解AA year after graduation，I was offered a position teaching a writing class.Teaching was a profession I had never seriously considered，though several of my stories had been published.I accepted the job without hesitation，as it would allow me to wear a tie and go by the name of Mr.Davis.My father went by the same name，and I liked to imagine people getting the two of us confused.“Wait a minute，”someone might say，“are you talking about Mr.Davis the retired man，or Mr.Davis the respectable scholar？”The position was offered at the last minute，and I was given two weeks to prepare，a period I spent searching for briefcase and standing before my fulllength mirror，repeating the words，“Hello，class.Im Mr.Davis.”Sometimes I would give myself an aggressive voice.Sometimes I would sound experienced.But when the day eventually came，my nerves kicked in and the true Mr.Davis was there.I sounded not like a thoughtful professor，but rather a 12yearold boy.I arrived in the classroom with paper cards designed in the shape of maple leaves.I had cut them myself out of orange construction paper.I saw nine students along a long table.I handed out the cards，and the students wrote down their names and fastened them to their breast pockets as I required.“All right then，”I said.“Okay，here we go.”Then I opened my briefcase and realized that I had never thought beyond this moment.I had been thinking that the students would be the first to talk，offering their thoughts and opinions on the events of the day.I had imagined that I would sit at the edge of the desk，overlooking a forest of hands.Every student would yell.“Calm down，youll all get your turn.One at a time，one at a time！”A terrible silence ruled the room，and seeing no other opinions，I inspected the students to pull out their notebooks and write a brief essay related to the theme of deep disappointment.1The author took the job to teach writing because_.Ahe wanted to be respectedBhe had written some storiesChe wanted to please his fatherDhe had dreamed of being a teacher【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段的最后一句内容可知他希望成为令人尊敬的学者。所以A项正确。【答案】A2What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 2?AHe would be aggressive in his first class.BHe was wellprepared for his first class.CHe got nervous upon the arrival of his first class.DHe waited long for the arrival of his first class.【解析】推理判断题。第二段的前两句在说作者的准备。根据后两句“But when the day eventually came，my nerves kicked in and the true Mr.Davis was there.I sounded not like a thoughtful professor，but rather a 12yearold boy.”可知第一次上课的那天到来的时候，作者是非常紧张的。所以C项正确。【答案】C3Before he started his class，the author asked the students to _.Awrite down their suggestions on the paper cardsBcut maple leaves out of the construction paperCcut some cards out of the construction paperDwrite down their names on the paper cards【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段中“I handed out the cards，and the students wrote down their names and fastened them to their breast pockets as I required.”可知作者发给学生卡片，要求学生把名字写在卡片上并固定在胸前的口袋上。所以D项正确。【答案】D4What did the students do when the author started his class?AThey began to talk.BThey stayed silent.CThey raised their hands.DThey shouted to be heard.【解析】细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句话“A terrible silence ruled the room.”可知学生们保持了沉默。所以B项正确。【答案】B5The author chose the composition topic probably because _.Ahe got disappointed with his first classBhe had prepared the topic before classChe wanted to calm down the studentsDhe thought it was an easy topic【解析】推理判断题。从文章的第四段可知作者原以为第一节课时学生会非常积极地举手提出自己的观点。可结果上课开始后学生却保持了沉默，这让作者感到失望。因此作者选择了一个与失望相关的作文主题。所以A项正确。【答案】ABEveryone is seeking happiness，but there is no specific definition about what happiness is，because for different people，happiness means different things.State of happiness comes when you feel great joy and satisfaction in life.The unity of soul and mind is very important for getting happiness，because mind creates a comfortable environment for the soul.And mind has the power to control human actions and feelings.The essence of happiness lies in the fact that you do what brings you pleasure.Its very simple.A person has a builtin system，an analogue (模拟的)GPS (Global Positioning System)GPS is a piece of equipment that is most often put in cars，and shows the route from its present location to the destination.Heres how it works.You get in your car，choose a destination，and specify an exact address.GPS immediately determines the best route and the arrow shows the direction of the route.If you follow the instructions of GPS all the time，you will arrive at your destination.If you do not follow the instructions，it will say “change the route”So heres your GPS；it is your emotional system.When you feel joy，youre going the right way to a happy life.When you feel sad and depressed，youre going in the wrong direction.Your GPS says：“Change the route.”Some people are so used to this “change the route” that they in general no longer hear the GPSChange the routeits your dissatisfaction，negative emotions and a sense of unhappiness.Listen to your GPS.If the way is chosen incorrectly，your GPS would tell you to “change the route”To gain your happiness，do follow your GPS6It can be learned from the first paragraph that _.Aones happiness is that he/she lives comfortablyBones mind has nothing to do with ones happinessCthe author gave an exact definition about happinessDdifferent people have different ideas about happiness【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段“.because for different people，happiness means different things.”可知，对于不同的人来说，幸福意味着不同的事。【答案】D7In the authors opinion，we can gain happiness by _.Aputting GPS in the carBlistening to the advice from othersCdoing what can make us feel pleasedDtrying our best to keep our mind peaceful【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段“The essence of happiness lies in the fact that you do what brings you pleasure.”可知，幸福的本质在于做能给你带来快乐的事。即作者认为做能够让我们感到快乐的事就能获得幸福。【答案】C8What is the function of GPS?AIt can judge whether a person is happy.BIt can show the user the best route to follow.CIt can help a driver avoid traffic accidents.DIt can make the user get to the destination immediately.【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段的内容可知，全球定位系统能够为使用者决定出一条最佳的行进路线。【答案】B9People mentioned in Paragraph 3 who are used to “change the route” _.Adont have a happy lifeBdont know how to use GPSCdont have a builtin systemDfollow the instructions of GPS【解析】推理判断题。根据第二、三段可知，人如果不按照全球定位系统的指示，全球定位系统就会提示“改变路线”。人的情感系统被比喻成模拟的全球定位系统，如果人感到快乐就是在正确的路线上。由此推断，第四段中提到的习惯于“改变路线”的人生活得不快乐。【答案】A10Whats the structure of the passage?A BC D【解析】文章结构题。根据文章内容来看，本文分为三部分：第一部分为第一段，介绍了每个人都在追寻幸福，但是每个人对幸福的看法都不同。第二部分为第二和三段，介绍了全球定位系统，并将人的情感系统比喻为全球地位系统来说明如何得到幸福。第三部分为第四段，介绍了人应该遵循人的“全球定位系统”来获得幸福。【答案】C11用30词左右概括文章大意_【答案】Everyone is seeking happiness，but for different people，happiness means different things.To gain your happiness，do follow your GPS.111
