南宁市2014高考英语完形填空、阅读理解训练题（16）及答案阅读理解 the time of year a baby is born can shape what profession they will embark on in later life, a new study has suggested. being born in a certain month appears to indicate the possibility of what job a person will end up with, the study by the office for national statistics found. researchers have uncovered that the month in which babies are born could also affect everything from intelligence to length of life. a child born in december is more likely to become a dentist while someone whose birthday falls in january will tend to a debt collector, they found. a february birth appears to increase the chances of being an artist while march babies appear to go on to become pilots. meanwhile, april and may are said to have a fairly even spread of professions, births in the summer months mean a much lower chance of becoming a high-earning football player, doctor or dentist. the study was gained by researchers who analyzed the birth months of people in 19 separate occupations using information from the last census (人口普查), the daily mail reported. although these trends may be difficult to explain, relations between birth months and specific health problems have a scientific basis. spring babies are at greater risk of illnesses including schizophrenia, alzheimers disease, asthma and autism. they may also be less clever than classmates born in other parts of the year.

【问题描述与分析】“完形填空”旨在测试学生综合运用语言的能力，所提供的是一篇具有完整信息的短文。其中段与段、句与句，甚至词与词之间都有着不可分割、千丝万缕的联系。有的完形填空题第一空的答案需要读完全文才能做出正确选择。有的最后一空的选项又是为了呼应全文主题，需要结合全文主题才能作答。相当一部分考生一拿到试题就开始边读边填空，从表面上看似乎是快了，但实际上由于对全文的大意心中无数，没有语篇意识，只是断章取义，拘泥于所填空的句子本身，而不结合整篇文章所提供的语境，不善于从上下文中寻找线索，往往做了后面忘了前面，很可能是漏洞百出，选错答案。【例】 i met mrs. neidl in the ninth grade on a stagedesign team for a play and she was one of the directors. almost instantly i loved her. she had an unpleasant voice and a direct way of speaking，_36_she was encouraging and inspiring. for some reason, she was impressed with my work and me.mrs. neidl would ask me for my_37_.she wanted to know how i thought we should_38_things. at first i had no idea how to answer because i knew_39_about stage design! but i slowly began to respond to her_40_. it was cause and effect: she believed i had opinions, so i began to _41_ them. she trusted me to complete things, so i completed them perfectly. she loved how_42_i was, so i began to show up to paint more and more. she believed in me, so i began to believe in myself.mrs. neidls_43_that year was，“try it. we can always paint over it _44_！” i began to take _45_. i had been so afraid of failing but suddenly there was no failingonly things to be_46_upon. i learned to dip my brush into the paint and _47_create something.the shy, quiet freshman achieved success that year. i was_48_in the program as “student art assistant” because of the time and effort id put in. it was that year that i_49_i wanted to spend the rest of my life doing stage design.being on that stagedesign team_50_mrs. neidl changed me completely. not only was i stronger and more competent than i had thought, but i also_51_a strong interest and a world i hadnt known existed. she taught me not to_52_what people think i should do. she taught me to take chances and not be_53_.mrs. neidl was my comforter when i was upset. her_54_in me has inspired me to do things that i never imagined_55_. 本文是记叙文，记述了自己通过加入舞台设计小组和mrs. neidl对自己的影响，作者彻底改变了自己，变得不再像以前那样胆小，文章的第三段是个转折，考生在做题的时候可能把握不了这个变化，导致后面的连续失误。36a.and byet cso dfor解析：unpleasant voice and a direct way of speaking 和encouraging and inspiring之间构成转折关系，故用yet。答案：b37a.opinion bimpression cinformation dintention解析：由下一句可知她想询问我的意见如何去处理事情。答案：a38a.make bkeep chandle dchange解析：handle things意为“处理，解决问题”，根据i knew nothing about stage design可知她想知道我应该怎样处理舞台设计的问题。答案：c39a.anything bsomething ceverything dnothing解析：根据no idea可知作者对于舞台设计一无所知。答案：d40a.questions bcomments cexplanations dremarks解析：由上文ask me for.和she wanted to know.可知对于她的问题“我”渐渐做出了反应。答案：a41a.hold bfollow cevaluate dform解析：上文提到作者对舞台设计没有什么想法，但由于mrs. neidl认为作者有自己的主见看法，所以作者开始形成自己的想法。hold opinions意为“持有的观点”；follow opinions意为“遵循观点”；evaluate opinions意为“对观点加以评估”。答案：d42a.happy blively creliable dpunctual解析：根据she believed in me可知，reliable与believe in相呼应。答案：c43a.message bmotto csaying dsuggestion解析：a意为“信息”；b意为“座右铭，箴言”；c意为“谚语”；d意为“建议”。we can always paint over it 这是mrs. neidl信奉的座右铭，故选b。答案：b44a.again bmore cinstead dlater解析：根据常识可知事情起先都不是一帆风顺的，最终后来都会成功的。答案：d45a.steps bcontrol ccharge drisks解析：take steps意为“采取措施”；b意为“控制”；c意为“负责，掌管”；d take risks意为“冒风险”。take risks和下文最后一段take chances相呼应
