a. how a school keeps students good at drama and arts. b. why students are interested in learning drama and arts. c. a new attempt making students change their bad behavior. d. an unusual idea to turn badly-behaved students into excellent ones. 答案解析：答案为c。本题为主旨大意题。本文第一段介绍了改变行为表现差的学生的方式，后文围绕此方式展开，最后一段 “its about using the arts to develop social skills as well as anger management, rather than just trying to make them good at drama or arts.”也对这一方式进行了进一步的解释说明，它是用来培养学生的社会技能和控制愤怒的能力，而不是仅仅让他们擅长戏剧或者艺术。故答案为c。54. the underlined word “mimic”(in paragraph 1) probably means _. a. correct b. watch c. improve d. imitate 答案解析：答案为d。本题为词义推断题。结合下文的第二、三段，被开除的学生在windsor arts centre学习，并同时和艺术家一起工作，戏剧老师让某一学生表演他曾经和橄榄球场上的老师之间发生的激烈争执，再由第三段的最后一句话 “then he showed her how to imitate(模仿) his attitude.”可以推断，mimic就是imitate。故答案为d。55. the artists at the windsor boys secondary school are working towards their goal by _. a. getting rid of students dissatisfaction b. developing students awareness of their error c. reducing the courses and making them easier d. encouraging students imagination in subjects.答案解析：答案为b。本题为推断题。如何改变那些在学校表现极差的学生？从第四、五段 “ he didnt really understand because he didnt have that self-awareness. it gave him the chance to look at himself from the outside.” 可知，学生被老师开除是因为他们没有好坏意识，不明白为什么被开除，这种模仿坏行为的方式可以让学生从外界的目光来看待自己。故答案为b，windsor boys secondary school的工作目标是培养学生的错误意识。56. all of the following people work at the arts centre except _. a. an arts therapist b. actors c. former teachers d. a street dancer答案解析：答案为c。第一段提到了actors；倒数第二段提到了an arts therapist 和a street dancer。故答案为c。【2015高考复习】完形填空i have always been an independent person，but i have come to know that being independent does not mean refusing help.i may still be_1_with asking for help，but i try to accept.furthermore，i will even_2_help and when my offers are refused，i am_3_willing to walk away.and all these changes came from a disaster on an island.sometimes a persons independence is a_4_of pride，daring，stubbornness and luck.i used to be too_5_since i was little.i was once a traveler who never asked for_6_，choosing instead to struggle with maps and signs until i found my way.then one day on the island of koh phangan，in thailand，everything_7_.i was swimming in the ocean with sean，my fiance(未婚夫)，when he was_8_by a box jellyfish(箱型水母)he_9_within three minutes,25 years old.yet when onlookers and travelers asked if i wanted_10_，stubborn pride and force of habit_11_me accepting.but two young israeli women stayed._12_my protest(反对)，they were with me even when the police tried to cover up the_13_of seans death.it was listed as drunk drowning to avoid hurting the_14_industry.the israeli women_15_have walked away._16_，without even telling me，they_17_their schedule rather than leave me behind._18_i didnt realize it at the time，i now believe i would not have_19_the disaster without these great women.actually，the person who needs help the most is usually the last person to ask for it.i have learned_20_is better than refusing because it not only helps you walk out of trouble，but also helps you know the real meaning of life.【语篇解读】 独立并不意味着要拒绝帮助，接受帮助比拒绝帮助好，这是作者通过自己的亲身经历领悟到的道理。1a.struggling bdealingcconfused dsatisfied解析struggle with表示“与作斗争”，根据上下文可知作者还在与是否要寻求帮助作斗争。答案a2a.offer baccept cseek ddesire解析根据下文的“when my offers”可知，作者甚至会给别人提供帮助。答案a3a.occasionally bfrequentlycusually dseldom解析当作者给别人提供帮助而被拒绝时，她很少会心甘情愿地走开。这与下文作者拒绝别人的帮助时，对方还是留下来陪她的经历有关。occasionally“偶尔”；frequently“经常地”；usually“通常”；seldom“很少”。答案d4a.range bsymbol cway dmix解析有时一个人的独立是骄傲、勇敢、顽强和运气的结合。range“一系列”；symbol“象征”；way“方式”；mix“混合，结合”。答案d5a.adventurous bbravecindependent dcreative解析根据文章第一句以及下文的内容可知，作者是一个非常独立的人。答案c6a.money bequipmentcdirections dsuggestions解析根据6空后面的“choosing instead to struggle with maps and sings until i found my way”可知，作者曾经旅行时从不问路。equipment“装备”；direction“方向”；suggestion“建议”。答案c7a.happened bmessedcchanged ddisappeared解析根据第一段的最后一句可知，此处表示“一切都变承”，故选c。答案c8a.attacked bcaught cfollowed dimpressed解析下文提到作者的未婚夫死了，此处应指他受到了箱型水母的攻击。attack“攻击”。答案a9a.sunk
