in his london office after spending two weeks with his brother in new york. he was coming back with a heavy heart. it was not just that it was the end of a wonderful holiday； it was not just that he invariably suffered badly from jet lag； it was that monday mornings always began with a team meeting and， over the months， he had grown to hate them. martin was aware that colleagues approached these meetings with hidden agendas； they indulged(纵容) gameplaying； and he knew that people were not being honest and open. the meetings themselves were bad enoughthere was all the moaning afterwards at the meeting like “i could have improved on that idea， but i wasnt going to say”. as this mornings meeting began， martin prepared himself for the usual dullness and boredom. but， as the meeting progressed， he became aware of a strange background noise. at first， he thought that he was still hearing the engine noise from the aircraft that had brought him back to london. but， as he concentrated on the noise， it became a little clearer.he realizedto his amazementthat he could actually hear what they were thinking at the same time as they were speaking. what surprised him， even more than the acquisition(获得) of this strange power， was that he discovered that what people were saying was not really what they were thinking. they were not making clear their reservations. they were not supporting views which they thought might be popular. they were not contributing their new insights. they were not volunteering their new ideas. martin found it impossible not to respond to his new knowledge. so he started to make gentle interventions， based more on what he could hear his colleagues thinking than on what he could hear them saying. “so， john are you really saying” “susan， do you really think that？” “tom， have you got an idea on how we could take this forward？” they looked at him， puzzled. in truth， he felt rather proud of his_newlyacquired_talent. as the meeting progressed， it was clear to him that each member of the meeting was learning how to hear the thoughts of the others. the gameplaying started to fall away； people started to speak more directly； views became better understood； the atmosphere became more open and trusting. the meeting ended. as people left the room， martin found that he could still hear what they were thinking. “that was the best meeting weve ever had.” “all meetings should be like that.” “in future， im going to say what i think”. 16it is known from the first paragraph that martin _. ajust came back from his business trip in new york bwas found to suffer from a serious heart disease during the trip chad a good time during his fortnights stay in new york ddidnt like his work in his london office17why did martin hate his companys team meeting？ abecause it had to be held every monday morning. bbecause he was tired of hosting such a meeting. cbecause he couldnt control the meeting that was out of order.dbecause the meeting atmosphere wasnt open and trusting.18the underlined part “his newlyacquired talent” in paragraph 5 means that he could _. astill hear the engine noise of the plane though he was backbclearly hear what the members of the meeting were sayingcactually control the thoughts of the members of the meetingdexpress what the meeting members were thinking based on their words and their thoughts19what do we know about this monday mornings meeting from the passage？amartin made people say what they were thinking immediately the meeting began. bmartin was angry at the dullness of the meeting at the beginning of the meeting all the time.cmartin led people to express their real thoughts with the meeting progressing.dmany members of the meeting played games and told lies at the meeting all the time.20it is inferred from the last two paragraphs that towards the end of the meeting martin would hear such words as “ _”. ai was thinking of making a suggestionbut i couldnt be bothered bi have got an idea on how we could take this forward. i think we should cthe usual people say the usual things， so i have no other new ideas di could have improved on that idea， but i wasnt going to say.阅读表达阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到相应的横线上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。1 work is a very important part of life in the united states. when the early protestant immigrants(新教徒移民) came to this country， they brought the idea that work was the way to god and heaven. this attitude， the protestant work ethic(道德规范)， still influences america today. work is not only important for economic benefits， the salary， but also for social and psychological need， the feeling of doing something for the good of the society. americans spend most of their lives working， being productive. for most americans， their work defines them： they are what they do. what happens then， when a person can no longer work？ almost all americans stop working at age sixtyfive or seventy and retire. because work is such an important part of life in this culture， retirement can be very difficult. retirees often feel that they are useless and unproductive. of course， _； but leaving ones job， whatever it is， is a difficult change， even for those who look forward to retiring. many retirees do not know how to use their time or they feel lost without their jobs. 2 retirements can also bring financial problems. many people rely on social security checks every month. during their working years， employees contribute a certain percentage of their salaries to the government. each employer also gives a certain percentage to the government. when people retire， they receive this money as income. these checks do not provide enough money to live on， however， because prices are increasing very rapidly. senior citizens， those over sixtyfive， have to have savings in the bank or other retirement plans to make ends meet. the rate of inflation(通货膨胀) is forcing prices higher each year. social security checks alone cannot cover these growing expenses. the government offers some assistance， medicare and welfare， but many senior citizens have to change their life styles after retirement. they have top speed carefully to be sure that they can afford to buy food， fuel and other necessities. 3 american society is only beginning to be concerned about the special physical and emotional needs of its senior citizens. the government is taking steps to ease the problem of limited income. they are building new housing， offering discounts in stores and museums and on buses， and providing other services such as free courses， food service， and help with housework. 21whats the general idea of this passage？ (no more than 10 words)_22what does the word “they” (line 6， paragraph 2) probably refer to？ (no more than 2 words) _23please fill in the blank in paragraph 1 with proper words or phrases. (no more than 10 words)_24what problems can retiring cause？ (no more than 5 words)_25what other suggestions would you give to the government to take steps to ease the problems of limited income of the senior citizens？ (no more than 30 words.)_课时作业(十七).1.c考查冠词用法。句意：第一印象最持久。毕竟，你不会再有机会去形成第一印象。第一空后有second，在此表示再一次机会，而不是表顺序，应用不定冠词；第二空中的第一印象是泛指，也不是表示顺序，又根据题干可以判断impression在此处是可数名词，可数名词单数表泛指时须用不定冠词，故选择c项。2a考查非谓语动词。句意：他告诉我们是否去野营还在讨论当中。分析句子可知“whether to do sth.”作宾语从句的主语，he told us 后省略了宾语从句的引导词that。3b考查状语从句。句意：尽管tim不经常锻炼，但他身材很好。前后是让步关系，故选b项。4a考查非谓语动词。句意：在星期六，比起呆在家里，我情愿去旅游。由“prefer to dorather than do”结构便可知a项正确，此处把rather than结构提前了。it being saturday为独立主格结构。5a考查动词短语辨析。句意：“对不起，现在我得挂断电话了。该上课了。”“好吧，等会儿我再打电话。”hang up意为“猛地挂断，中止(与某人的)电话交谈”，符合语境。break up意为“(集会)结束，解散；(恋爱或婚姻中的男女)分手”；give up意为“放弃；认输；猜不出，交出；自首；泄露”；hold up意为“举起，支持，支撑，拦住，耽搁”。6b考查动词辨析。句意：这所学校通过给大部分孩子提供获得知识的机会，给予他们对未来的希望。acquire意为“获得”，符合语境。require意为“要求”；achieve意为“实现”；discover意为“发现”。7a考查动词的时态。句意：我得去看医生，因为我近来一直咳嗽得很厉害。根据句子中的lately可知，设空处表示现在的事情，故用现在时态，排除b、c两项；d项表习惯性动作，故被排除。现在完成进行时表示动作从过去开始，持续到现在且现在还在进行。8a考查省略。句意：如果这些食物好吃，我再去买些。否则，我就不去买了。if not意为“否则”；if any意为“若有的话”；whenever意为“无论什么时候”；无when not这种表达。根据句意，正确答案为a项。9b考查虚拟语气及固定短语辨析。句意：由于天气不好，足球赛被要求推迟了。在it is required that句型中，从句的谓语动词用“should 动词原形”，should可以省略，所以排除c和d两项。没有thank to这种用法，所以排除a项，正确答案为b项。10c考查非谓语动词。rid of 是一个固定搭配，意为“使摆脱；使去掉”。switch fromto也是固定搭配，意为“从转向”，其中to是介词，后面需跟名词或动名词形式。所以正确答案为c项。11d考查非谓语动词。句意：她喜欢用手洗衣服而不愿用洗衣机洗。固定表达prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.意为“宁可做而不做；喜欢做而不做”，所以正确答案为d项。12d考查副词用法。句意：奇怪的是，这两个人看起来这么相像，以至于几乎所有人都认为他们是双胞胎兄弟。too much 后跟不可数名词或单独使用，意为“太多”；much too后跟形容词或副词原级，意为“太，很”；没有such much这种表达；so后可跟形容词或副词，所以正确答案为d项。13b考查副词辨析。句意：我敢肯定，戴维已经告诉你他生意上的麻烦。不管怎样，他欠银行许多钱不是什么秘密了。anyway意为“无论如何”；however意为“然而”；otherwise意为“否则”；though意为“虽然”。根据句意可知正确答案为b。14a考查动词的时态。句意：约瑟夫从上个月就开始上夜校，但是他还不会用俄语说“你叫什么名字”。本题从时间状语“自从上个月开始”可知需用现在完成时，又因为说话时他还在继续上课，所以要用现在完成进行时。15c考查交际用语。句意：“这张照片我保存行吗？”“恐怕不行。”答语应为委婉拒绝。a、b、d均不符合题意。.度假归来，马丁又要组织会议了。他原本准备忍受会议的乏味，但随着会议的进行，他发现自己能根据别人所说的话知道他们心里的真实想法，因此他试着说出他们的真实想法，引导与会人员学着理解他人的想法，并坦诚地说出自己心里的想法。因此，会议成为了一场开诚布公而让人信任的会议。16c细节理解题。根据第一段it was not just that it was the end of a wonderful holiday中的a wonderful holiday可判断，他在纽约的两周过得很愉快，由此判断答案选c。17d细节理解题。根据第二段可判断，与会人员口是心非，表里不一，这种不公开、不诚实的会风使他厌烦，由此判断正确答案选d。18d词义猜测题。第四段提到马丁能根据与会人员所说的话而得知他们心里的真实想法，之后第五段接着说，他说出与会
