Your Kids Help if NecessaryBStop Rescuing Your Kids from FailureCBe Responsible for Your Kids FailureDTry to Meet Your Kids Demands【解题导语】本文作者通过亲身体会告诉我们:失败让我们变得更好,因为我们在失败中学会成长。【难句分析】Now, as a mom myself, Ive realized that I want my kids to experience failure because failure is how we grow,learn and think outside of ourselves.分析:这是一个复合句。本句含有that引导的宾语从句;because引导原因状语从句, how引导表语从句。译文:现在,作为一个母亲,我意识到我想让我的孩子经历失败,因为失败是我们如何成长、学习和思考的一个过程。1D考查细节理解。根据第一段的“After waiting at school for an hour, I walked the three miles home,and when I got to my house,I shut our front door with anger,stormed into the kitchen and screamed in my moms face that shed forgotten me”可知,作者在学校等了一个小时,后来自己走回了家,因此她对妈妈没有去学校接她非常生气。故选D。2C考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“Now, as a mom myself, Ive realized that I want my kids to experience failure because failure is how we grow,learn and think outside of ourselves”说明作者现在认为她之前的经历对她是有益的(Beneficial)。3A考查词义猜测。根据第二段的“But she help_her_ground,and that day, I walked to school”中But的转折意味以及后面作者仍然走着去上学可知,妈妈仍坚持她的观点,没有送作者去上学。4B考查标题判断。根据第三段和第四段的叙述,尤其是第三段的“My mom didnt rescue me from failure”及“I want my kids to experience failure because failure is how we grow,learn and think outside of ourselves”可知,B项最适合做文章标题。A项“如果有必要,给你的孩子提供帮助”与D项“尽力满足你孩子的要求”均与文章内容相悖。C项“对你孩子的失败负责”是年少时作者对妈妈的不满。二、单句语法填空1(2017江苏高考)He hurried home, never once looking back to see if he _ (follow)答案:was being followed这里if引导的宾语从句用过去进行时表示过去某一时刻(hurried home)正在进行的动作。又因he与follow之间是被动关系,故用被动语态。2Not _(employ) by a wellknown pany doesnt necessarily mean that you have no bright future.答案:being employed此处在陈述一个一般性的事实,且you和employ之间为被动关系,故用动名词的被动式作主语。3His house stands on a hill and can be seen from a _ (distant) of two miles.答案:distance由空前的a可知,此处应填名词,from a distance “从远处”。4Parents spare no effort to pave the way for the _ (succeed) of their children.答案:success由空前的the可知此处应用名词success “成功”。5Im fed up with your _(end) plaining.答案:endless此处endless形容词“无休止的”修饰动名词plaining。6This defeat was a _ (power) blow to the enemy.答案:powerful此处形容词powerful “有力的;强大的”修饰名词blow。7After the exam, I felt an incredible sense of _(relieve)答案:relief介词of后应跟名词relief “减轻或解除”。8We had no choice and had to be _the mercy of the sea.答案:atat the mercy of . “受摆布”。9Greek yogurt _(contain) much less fat than double cream.答案:containscontain “包含”,且描述一般事实,应用一般现在时。10My opinion _(affect) by the recent development of events.答案:has been affectedaffect “影响”,为动词,与My opinion存在逻辑上的动宾关系,且本句描述过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响,故应用现在完成时的被动语态。三、完形填空阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可能填入空白处的最佳选项。(2018泰安一轮复习检测)Though Dad looked tired and weak,his

Without a moments delay, my neighbor picked up the box but announced, “Ill take them. ”参考答案: 1. 【解析】第一句 story前加a。 考查冠词的用法。此处story是可数名词, 表示一个故事, 故加a。2. 【解析】 第一句interestedinteresting。 考查形容词的用法。此处是非限制性定语从句, 先行词是a story故用interesting。3. 【解析】第二句 ecame。考查动词时态。根据全文可知用一般过去时。4. 【解析】第三句onin或yardground。 in the yard在院子里。on the ground在地上。5. 【解析】第三句ballballs。 考查名词的单复数。根据a box of可知用复数。6. 【解析】第四句saysaying。 考查非谓语动词的用法。此处a card和say是主动关系, 故用现在分词。7. 【解析】第六句去掉has。 考查动词时态。根据文意可知此处用一般过去时, 故去掉has。8. 【解析】第六句 updown。 考查句意理解。根据上文的25 cents each知应为“将价格降到10美分”, 所以用down。9. 【解析】第七句 myhis。 考查代词指代一致。根据句意此处应是his。10. 【解析】第七句butand。考查并列连词的用法。此处不是转折关系, 而是顺承关系, 故改为and。
