  • 第5题:

    I met him on the Internet and we chatted for several months. Every time I suggested we meet in person,he would come up with an excuse. I thought it was strange-but he told me that he had not gotten over the death of his wife and he was still grieving for her.

    I thought that he needed a friend and decided that I could be that friend. We sent cards, exchanged gifts,talked on the phone and I was sure that we would meet someday. I had spoken with his children so I was sure that what he told me was true. I could not wait for the day when we would meet. I was so looking forward to being able to reach out and touch him. To hug him,to hold him and feel his big strong arms around me.

    After almost two years of time,thousands of dollars on long distance phone calls,I was very frustrated at the endless stream of excuses as to why we could never seem to make a time to meet. Finally,contacted the website WhoisHe. com and asked if they could check out the man who had taken up so much of my heart,my energy and my life. I had enough information about him and felt that if I could confirm what he had been telling me-I could feel okay about these delays. I had hopes that I didn't want to dash if he was telling the truth. I believed I could wait a little while longer.

    Well, I am glad that I decided to have him checked out-he was nothing he claimed to be. He was first and foremost a married man. He was not a man grieving for the loss of his wife. He was a man cheating on his wife,with me-and I found out later,with countless others on the“net”. He did not care that he had hurt me in a very deep and pathetic way. He talked of spending his life together with me. He told my son that he wanted to make me happy. Basically,he just lied. He was such a good liar I did not see it coming. It was as if he had been able to worm his way into my heart-and he didn't care about the effect he had on my hopes and dreams.

    Each of us should look at the signs that are so clear if we are willing to see them. Do not let someone keep making excuse after excuse. If something feels wrong-likely it is. It is good to know the truth and be able to deal with it. Next time I will pay more attention. I may never be able to trust someone online again.

    It can be inferred from Para. 4 that______.

    A.the man was a single person in reality

    B.the woman was the man's only girlfriend

    C.the man had too many girlfriends on the net

    D.the woman had countless online boyfriends


    正确答案:C

    In the fall of 1924 Thomas Wolfe,fresh from his courses in play writing at Harvard joined the eight or ten of us who were teaching English composition in New York University.I had never before seen a man so tall as he,and so ugly.I pitied him and went out of my way to help him with his work and make him feel at home.
    His students soon let me know that he had no need of my protectiveness.They spoke of his ability to explain a poem in such a manner as to have them shouting with laughter or struggling to keep back their tears,of his readiness to quote in detail from any poet they could name.
    Indeed,his students made so much of his power of observation that I decided to make a little test and see for myself.My chance came one morning when the students were slowly gathering for nine o‘clock classes.
    Upon arriving at the university that day,I found Wolfe alone in the large room which served all the English composition teachers as an office.He did not say anything when I asked him to come with me out into the hall,and he only smiled when we reached a classroom door and I told him to enter alone and look around.
    He stepped in,remained no more than thirty seconds and then came out.“Tell me what you see.”I said as I took his place in the room,leaving him in the hall with his back to the door.Without the least hesitation and without a single error,he gave the number of seats in the room,pointed out those which were taken by boys and those occupied by girls,named the colors each student was wearing,pointed out the Latin verb written on the blackboard,spoke of the chalk marks which the cleaner had failed to wash from the floor,and pictured in detail the view of Washington Square from the window.
    As I rejoined Wolfe,I was speechless with surprise.He,on the contrary,was wholly calm as he said,“The worst thing about it is that I‘ll remember it all.”

    正确答案: 1.E 空格前面讲到,得知百事公司的老总要在科罗拉多大学讲学后,“我”设法得到了约见他的机会。根据逻辑分析,接下来也应该是与这次约见有关的信息。E选项说“但是他的时间安排很紧张,他作完演讲之后却只有15分钟的时间可以见我”,这也就是第二段提到的“我”在大学礼堂外面等候的原因。因此,E选项填在此处与前后文语意连贯。故选E。
    2.C 空格前面是在描述“我”在礼堂外面等候的情况。空格后面说到,他已经超过了五分钟了,使我与他见面的时间只剩下了10分钟。C选项说“我大为吃惊,他的演讲没有在规定的时间内结束”,可见,C选项填在此处与前后文语意连贯。故选C。
    3.F 空格前面讲到,“我”在名片后面写了个便条提醒他还有个约会,并推开门,向他走去。根据逻辑分析,接下来就应该是把名片递给他并走回来。因此,F选项填在此处最合适。故选F。
    4.A 空格前面说到,百事老总看了看名片,又看了看我,并说出了“我”的名字。由此可推知,他同意和我谈话。因此,接下来理应是介绍他们谈话的相关内容。A选项说“我们在学校的一间办公室见面并关上了门”,天在此处语意连贯。故选A。
    5.D 空格前面的句子说到,“我”最珍视的他给与我的就是他鼓励“我”继续按照“我”的做法去做。而根据前文可知,“我”所做的就是有胆量打断一个总裁的演讲。D选项说的就是总裁对“我”所作鼓励的具体内容,填在此处语意连贯,符合逻辑。故选D。

    本题语法题,只有expensive的最高级前用the most。
    本题是词组辫析。start“开始”。swing“摇摆”。show“展示”。spread“传播,散布”。
    本题为阅读理解题,根据下文内容,这里应是“委员会成员嫉妒他的成功”。
    本题为阅读理解题,与上半句的“朋友”相对,这里是“对手、敌人”。
    本题为阅读理解题,根据上文应是表示“留下的原因”。
    本题为语法词汇题。affection名词,“喜爱”;affect动词,“影响”;effect名词,“影响”;effective形容词,“有效的”。
    prove“证明”; correct“改正”; create“创造”; prepare“准备”。
    根据上下文这里应是“疼痛”的意思。pain“疼”; trouble"麻烦”; destruction “破坏”; damage“损伤”。
    awful“极糟糕的”; interesting“有趣的”; successful“成功的”; dangerous“危险的”。
    根据上下文,这里是“一件震惊的事”,因此是shock。
    根据下文,妻子应该感到“焦虑”。
    根据上文,安德鲁做实验,因此应该是“实验室”。
    根据上下文背景,此处的闯入者应是“拒绝听”。
    本题为理解题。上句说到安德鲁生气地接电话,在听到是欧文后应该是语气有所转变。

    He spent the next 30 minutes offering me his time,some wonderful stories that I still

    B
    In the fall of 1924 Thomas Wolfe,fresh from his courses in play writing at Harvard joined the eight or ten of us who were teaching English composition in New York University.I had never before seen a man so tall as he,and so ugly.I pitied him and went out of my way to help him with his work and make him feel at home.
    His students soon let me know that he had no need of my protectiveness.They spoke of his ability to explain a poem in such a manner as to have them shouting with laughter or struggling to keep back their tears,of his readiness to quote in detail from any poet they could name.
    Indeed,his students made so much of his power of observation that I decided to make a little test and see for myself.My chance came one morning when the students were slowly gathering for nine o‘clock classes.
    Upon arriving at the university that day,I found Wolfe alone in the large room which served all the English composition teachers as an office.He did not say anything when I asked him to come with me out into the hall,and he only smiled when we reached a classroom door and I told him to enter alone and look around.
    He stepped in,remained no more than thirty seconds and then came out.“Tell me what you see.”I said as I took his place in the room,leaving him in the hall with his back to the door.Without the least hesitation and without a single error,he gave the number of seats in the room,pointed out those which were taken by boys and those occupied by girls,named the colors each student was wearing,pointed out the Latin verb written on the blackboard,spoke of the chalk marks which the cleaner had failed to wash from the floor,and pictured in detail the view of Washington Square from the window.
    As I rejoined Wolfe,I was speechless with surprise.He,on the contrary,was wholly calm as he said,“The worst thing about it is that I‘ll remember it all.”
