C 解析：从上下文可以看出作者是一名智商很高的医生，是脑力劳动者。比较Id d。poorly+可知作者假设用自己的双手工作，会做得很差。where l have to work with my hands是定语从句，作world的定语。Idd。poorly是虚拟语气。 9A 解析：第二段作者谈论了他的汽车修理工在智力测验中可能得比较低的分数，但是，在修理汽车方面却很在行。第 三段是作者对自己如果从事体力劳动可能会很差的假设。所以，在第四段再次讲述修理工的故事，要用againtoo和as well的意思基本相同，表示“也，还”；asUsual像平常一样。 10B 解析：下文所讲述的聋哑人买钉子和盲人买剪刀的事都是笑话(jokes)tales传说，谎言。 11D 解析：needed作行为动词的意思是“需要”。needed some nails是这位聋哑人进入商店的原因。选项A (bought)有很大的迷惑性。一些考生认为这位聋哑人到商店的目的是买钉子，所以填了bought但是，bought somenails(买了一些钉子)表示结果，如果他买钉子了，就不会再进入商店了。 12B 解析：因为这位聋哑人到商店买钉子，所以他走进商店，把两个手指放在柜台上做夹钉子的动作，另一只手做锤子敲打的动作(hammeringmovement) 13C 解析：售货员给他拿出了锤子，他摇了摇头，表示售货员误解了他的意思。 14A 解析：根据上文Theclerkbroughthimahammer可确定应填brought售货员给他拿了钉子。pack包装；send 送；sell卖。都与下文中所提供的情境He picked out the rightsizeandleft不符。 15D 解析：thenextman下一个进来的人；theotherman剩下的另一个，表示只有聋哑人与盲人两个人；therightman合适的人；the cleverman聪明的人。都与上下文的意思不符。 16B 解析：how表示方式，如何。这是一个特殊疑问句。do yousuppose是插人语。heasked for them是一个完整的句子，所以不能填what，who或which，它们在特殊疑问句中都充当主语、宾语或表语。 17C 解析：voice说话的声音。盲人会说话，他们买东西时用自己的话语表达自己的意思就可以了。 18A 解析：trysth。n sb用某事耍弄某人。修理工讲这个故事的目的是开玩笑。我今天用这个故事和我的所有顾客开玩笑。prove证明；practising作及物动词的意思是“练习，实习”；examine检查，考试。 19A 解析：for sure肯定地，有把握地。汽车修理工在下文中所说的话说明他有把握使作者上当受骗。alonce马上，立刻；infact事实上；rightnow就在现在。 20D 解析：smart除了有“聪明，伶俐”的意思外，还有“滑头，诡”的意思。从上文的内容我们可以看出，作者是一位医生，在部队里的一次智力测验中得过高分，但是，正因为如此，他才会按常规思维。所以汽车修理工说：“因为你受过足够的教育，我知道你不可能很滑头。”goddamned表示褒义时，意思是“十分的，完全的”；表示贬义时，意思是“该死的，讨厌的”。 2.(典型例题 Farmers, as we all know, have been having a hard time of it lately, and have turned to new ways of earning income from their land. This involves not only planting new kinds of crops, but some 1 ways of making money, the most unusual of which has got to be sheep racing. Yes,you heard me 2 ! A farmer now holds sheep races on a regular basis, and during the past year over 100 000 people have 3 to watch the race. I was passing the farm on my way to the sea for a holiday, one punder(赛以经纪人)told me,and I thought Id have a look. I didnt believe it was serious, to tell you the truth. According to a regular visitor, betting on sheep is more interesting than betting on horses. At proper horse races everyone has already studied the form of the horse 4 ,and there are clear favourites. 5 nobody has heard anything about these 6 ! Most people find it difficult to tell one from another in any case. I stayed to watch the races, and must admit that I found it quite 7 ,In a usual sheep race, half a dozen sheep race down hill over a course of about half a mile. Food is waiting for them at the other end of the 8 just to give them some encourage ment,I ought to add! The sheep run surprisingly fast, 9 they have probably not eaten for a while. Anyway, the crowd a- round me were obviously enjoying their day out at the races, 10 by their happy faces and the sense of excitement. 1. A. common B. strange C. swift D. illegal 答案：B 指导：strange奇怪的。通常人们通过赛马赚钱，而现在农民通过“绵羊比赛”赚钱。这种赚钱的方式的确出奇。2. A. honestly B. surprisingly C. completely D. correctly 答案：D 指导：correctly正确地。这篇短文讲述了农民通过“绵羊比赛”赚钱，这是一件奇怪的事，作者为了强调自己说的是真事，用了Yes，you heard me correctly!这样的句子。3. A. showed off B. brought up C. turned up D. looked forward 答案：C 指导：turn叩来到，到达。在过去的一年里，有100 000人来观看比赛。showoff炫耀，卖弄；hrightup(使车辆等)突然停下；lookforward期待。4. A. behind time B. in progress C. in advance D. in time 答案：C 指导：inadvance预先。在“赛马”前，人们已经预先对马匹的情况进行了研究。behind time在原定的时间之后；in progress在进展中；in time及时。5. A. But B. Therefore C. Moreover D. Otherwise 答案：A 指导：分析这两个简单句可判断出“在赛马前，人们已经预先对马匹的情况进行了研究”，“与赛羊”前人们对参加比赛的羊一无所知”是转折关系。6. A. horses B. sheep C. races D. stories 答案：B 指导：比较上文人们对参加赛马的马匹进行研究可判断出人们对参加赛羊的“羊”没有任何研究。7. A. exciting B. dangerous C. boring D. peculiar答案：A 指导：exciting激动人心的。根据下文中Anyway，thecrowd around me were obviously enjoying their day out at the races可判断出作者认为这种比赛是激动人心的。dangerous危险的；boring无聊的；peculiar奇特的。8. A. race B. hill C. track D. field 答案：C 指导：track跑道。参加“赛羊”的羊群不像参加“赛马”的马匹那样便于驾驭，所以人们在跑道上放了一些食物，吸引羊群向前跑。race赛跑；hill小山；field田地。9. A. if B. so C. yet D. although 答案：D 指导：although虽然，引导让步状语从句。比较run surprisingly fast和have probably not eaten for a while可判断出它们之间是转折关系。10. A. observing B. judging C. considering D. inferring答案：B 指导：judgingby根据判断。根据他们高兴的面孔和活动的情绪可判断出我周围的人都喜欢出来看 这场比赛。所给的三个干扰项中的非谓语动词都表示主动，都指人们正在做的事，容易被排除。 题点经典类型题(典型例题) How could you fulfill (实现) your dream? Begin doing the work you love as soon as possible, 1 you dont get paid for it,or you can only work at it in your spare time. When Albert Einstein failed to get a job as a physics professor,he 2 have said to himself,Now, I didnt manage to have the work relative to 3 .

If you want to work as an artist while you are making a life as a(an) 7 ,dont think of yourselfas a waiter who 8 one day to become an artist. That will put the work you love somewhere 9 in the future. Rather, think yourself as an artist, 10 yourself by waiting the tables ad paint or draw as much as you can.

You dont want to be 16 the ideas of what you should do or what you have done before. Having 17 to all possibili- ties, you can make a final 18 and select the work you love as your own. Doing the work you love requires that you should be 19 devoted to the imaglnanve and the 20 . That s to say It requires not only the ability to dream big dreams but also the a bility to face and master all the little details that make dreams come true. 1. A. because B. although C. even though D. now that 2. A. shouldnt B. could C. couldnt D. must 3. A. science B. professor C. physics D. university 4. A. Therefore B. However C. Instead D. So 5.

A. thoughtful B. possible C. necessary D. practical答案： 1C“即使”，表示让步，其他不符合题意。 2B这里是虚拟语气，意思是：既然爱因斯坦不能得到物理学教授的工作，他本来是可以对自己说放弃物理，从事其他的事情。而相反，他没有放弃，却写出了两篇著名的论文。 3C根据上下文得知。 4C表示相反，由后面的两篇论文得知。 5B 这里是非谓语动词，表示“被雇用”；若用work，则用working 6D hope不能说成hopesb to do 7A本句的while表示转折，所以这里填waiter 8D hope和decide相比，前者更合适，因为成为艺术家并非是“决定”的事情。 9A 本句意思是：那会使你热爱的工作在将来离你更远。 10B 靠做服务员来养活自己，而把时间用在绘画上，这样做是可行的。 11.D hispossibletodosth表示可能性。reasonable则表示“有道理的”；important表示“重要的”，与题意不符。 12B一周工作20小时比较合理。 13D devototo(doing)ste“投身于，致力于”。 14A用off表示工作之余的时间。 15D 一边工作，一边重新认识世界，所以说，这样寻找工作当然是有帮助的了。 16C 不要让自己的思想只局限于现在或过去从事的工作。 17B opento面对、向开放。 18A makeadecision作出决定。 19C 两者同等重要。 20D重视想象，也要重视实践。 新记考命题探究 Cloze 1 Most people often dream at night. In dreams we do things which we would never do when were awake. Why are dreams so strange and unfamiliar? Where do dreams come from? No one has produced a more 1 answer than a man called Sigmund Freud. When Freud was a child he cared about the 2 of others, so it isnt 3 that he became a doctor when he grew up. He learned all about the way in which the human body 4 . But he be came more and more 5 about the human mind. At that time it seemed that no one knew very much about the 6 . If a person went mad, or out of his mind, there was not much that could be done 7 it.In 1886 Freud began to work as a doctor in nerve (神经) diseases. Most of the 8 who came to see him were women. They were over-excited and anxious, 9 in mind rather than in body 10 did not help them. Freud was full of sympathy (同情) but he coulcl do 11 to make them better. Then one day a friend, Dr Josef Breuer, told him about a girl he was 12 . The girl seemed to get 13 when she was allowed to talk about herself. She told Dr Breuer every thing that 14 into her mind. And each time she talked to him she remembered more about her life as a little child. Freud was 15 when he heard this. He began to try to 16 his patients in the same way. He asked about the 17 of their early childhood. He himself 18 very little. The doctor did not make any 19 to stop them. He quietly 20 whatever they told him, the good things and the bad. 1. A. doubtful B. satisfying C. correct D. mysterious答案：B 指导：表示SigmundFreud的答案最令人满意，比较级表达最高级概念。doubtful“令人生疑的”，mysterious“神秘的”，不符合下文的逻辑：correct正确的”，没有比较级。2. A. happiness B. conditions C. sufferings D. spirits 答案：C 指导：从下文SigmundFreud成为医生看，他是关心人们的“疾苦”，故用sufferingsA“幸福”不合题意；a“状况”太笼统；Cspirits当“情绪”讲，也不合题意。3. A. wise B. reasonable C. right D. surprising 答案：D 指导：从前面的叙述，因为SigmundFreud关心人们的“疾苦”，所以成为医生是很自然的事情，即不令人吃惊。4 A. works B. runs C. suffers D. forms 答案：A 指导：成为医生以后，SigmundFreud了解了人类身体的一切机能。work当动词用，意为“运行”讲。B项干扰性很大，run也可当“运行”讲，但多指“商业、机器”等的运行情况；C项suffer遭受折磨”；D项forms构成”，意思都太片面。5. A. worried B. curious C. careful D. thoughtful答案：B 指导：由前面的转折词but以及后文Sigmund Freud成为精神病医生这点分析，可知此处是指他后来成为精神病医生的原因，对人的精神方面感到“好奇”。A项“担心、C项“细心”、D项“周到的、体贴的”显然都不符合题意。6. A. body B. patients C. diseases D. mind 答案：D 指导：此处指当时人们对“精神”方面理解得不多，为SigmundFreu成为精神病研究方面的先驱做好铺垫。A项“身体”不合逻辑；B项“病人”和C项“疾病”都太笼统。7. A. with B. about C. for D. on 答案：B 指导：doabout意为“对采取措施”。此处指当时人们对精神病人几乎无能为力。do with意为“处置、处理”，后面多搭配表示“物”的名词；do for表示“为做”；on不搭配。8. A. patients B. nurses C. workers D. assistants A 指导：因为SigmundFreud是精神病医生，所以此处只能是指他的“病人”。其他三个选项“护土”、“助手”和212人”都不符合逻辑。9. A. angry B. sound C. sick D. mistaken 答案：C 指导：从前面的“兴奋过度”和“焦虑”可以断定，此处指的是精神病人，故用sick in mind精神有病”。angry，sound“良好的”都不合题意，mistaken错误的”，干扰性较大，但多指人们行为、判断等方面的“错误”。此处另外一个正确说法是wrong in mind或out of mindo10. A. Freud B. Medicine C. Doctors D. Hospitals 答案：B 指导：此处指给这些精
