B．happenedonC．pickedout D．madeup解析：选B依据语境可知，几年前坐在高校的图书馆里作者偶然遇到这两个单词“lifepersists〞。happenon“偶然遇到或发觉〞，符合语境。pickout“选择，区分出〞；makeup“编造〞。2． B．concentratedC．tired D．confused解析：选A依据下文中的“SuddenlyIwasn’tunhappyandimpatientanymore〞可知，作者当时在图书馆里的心情是很郁闷的。应选bored“厌倦的，郁闷的〞。3． B．dancingC．rushing D．moving解析：选B这两个词突然从书页上的引语中跃入作者的眼帘。dancing在此形象生动地描述了“lifepersists〞这两个词所富含的美妙活力以及作者遇到它们的偶然性。4． B．accusationC．suspicion D．untruth解析：选D在死亡中，生命依旧坚持；在谎话中，真理依旧长存；在黑暗中，光明依旧永驻。依据句中的death与life,darkness与light的对应关系可知，此处应填truth的反义词。untruth“虚假，不真实〞，符合语境。accusation“控告〞；suspicion“疑心〞。5． B．visitedC．consulted D．informed解析：选A依据下文中的“onthephone〞可知，作者给爷爷打。call“(给……)打〞。符合语境。visit“探望，访问〞；consult“询问〞；inform“告知〞。6． B．confidentC．upset D．desperate解析：选D依据语境及上文中的“Ilovedtotalkwithhim〞可知，作者很想听听爷爷(对这句话)是怎么看的。desperate“极想，渴望〞。patient“急躁的〞；upset“担心的〞。7． B．printC．repeat D．recite解析：选C依据上文中的“Hehadpoorhearing〞和下文中的“afewtimes〞可知，爷爷的听觉不灵，所以作者不得不屡次重复(repeat)这句话。copy“抄写〞；print“打印〞；recite“背诵〞。8． B．madeC．undertook D．managed解析：选A但是一旦作者的爷爷明白(gotit)了，他就笑了起来。makeit“获得胜利，准时到达〞。9． B．scepticismC．agreement D．disapproval解析：选C依据上文中的“laughed〞和下文中作者的爷爷所背诵的语句与该句话的主题全都性可知，作者的爷爷对这句话所表达的主题是完全同意(agreement)的。puzzlement“怀疑〞；scepticism“疑心〞；disapproval“反对，不赞成〞。10． B．especiallyC．obviously D．naturally解析：选B作者告知爷爷她在漫长的冬天过后，最终看到了春天，特殊是偶然发觉这句引语，她有多快乐。especially“特殊，尤其〞，符合语境。practically“实际地，差不多〞；obviously“明显地〞；naturally“自然而然地〞。11． B．inspirationC．remark D．sign解析：选D春天就是一个可信的迹象，它说明生命是长存的。sign“迹象，征兆〞符合语境。inspiration“鼓舞人心的人(或事物)〞。12． B．energeticC．merry D．alive解析：选C依据上文中的“Iwasn’tunhappy〞，下文中的“rejoice(快乐)〞“joy〞及文章的主题可知，这句话使作者感到快乐(merry)。astonished“震动的〞；energetic“精力充分的〞。13． B．withC．of D．beyond解析：选A作者的爷爷又笑了笑，然后用他那动听的嗓音为作者背诵了他最喜爱的语句。in...voice是固定搭配，表示“以……的嗓音〞。14． B．superbC．classical D．favorite解析：选D参见上题解析。impressive“给人印象深刻的〞；superb“极佳的，质量极高的〞；classical“经典的〞；favorite“最喜爱的〞。15． B．flowerC．survive D．sow解析：选B沙漠应当快乐，像玫瑰一样盛开。依据空后的“astherosedoes〞可知，flower“开花〞符合语境。16． B．whenC．until D．although解析：选B多年后，当作者和丈夫驱车穿越一个有许多野花和盛开的仙人掌的沙漠时，她几乎又听到了爷爷笑着说“沙漠应当快乐〞。分析句子结构可知，空处在此引导时间状语从句，且在从句中作时间状语，应选when。17． B．alwaysC．almost D．mostly解析：选C参见上题解析。almost“几乎，差不多〞，符合语境。18． B．wordsC．world D．desert解析：选D依据空后的“thebloomingofcactuses...〞和上文中的“adesertwithmanywildflowersandblooming(盛开的)cactuses〞及“Thedesertshallrejoice〞可知，生命长存，同样的，我们也要坚持。生命长存于安静的沙漠(desert)中和盛开的仙人掌里。19． B．springC．summer D．autumn解析：选Ainthedeadofwinter“在隆冬，在严冬〞。空前的dead形象地表现了冬季万物萧条的景象，与春季的绿意及万物复苏的景象形成鲜亮的比照。20． B．assuresC．reminds

B．exampleC．time D．parison解析：选C写作手法题。在第三段作者依据时间挨次绽开全段，指出了人们从孩童时期到长大成人，不断地建立“心墙〞。4．Theunderlinedword“downside〞inthelastparagraphcanbereplacedby“________〞．A．trueuse B．oldwayC．negativepart D．majordifference解析：选C词义猜想题。依据最终一段but一词的转折可知，第四段讲墙可以爱护人的同时，也阻挡了人们的沟通。因此downside此处有“缺乏之处〞的意思。BAdecadeago,secondaryandhighereducationwasprizedaboveallelse.Apprenticeships(学徒工作)wereviewedasanoptionfordropoutsratherthanadaringcareerchoice.Andtheyoungmenandwomenwhodidn’tfitintotheschoolsystem,preferringtocreatestart­upsandfocusonmakingalivinginthebusinessworld,weredismissedaswheeler­dealers(投机者)．Nowthere’re_no_birds_of_this_year_in_last_year’s_nests.Youngpeoplearebeingencouragedtothinkcarefullyaboutwhetheracademiaisrightforthem—thistrendhasbeenfuelledbyrisinguniversityfeesandaglobalshortageofmanyskillsthatwerepassedoverinschoolsinrecentyears,rangingfromwebdevelopmenttosales.Youngpeoplearerequiredtostayinsomekindofeducationortraininguntiltheyare18,butthislearningmaynowtakemanyforms.TheGovernmentrunsitsownplatformtohelpinterestedyouthsfindanapprenticeshipthatsuitstheirskillsandambitions.TomHartley,whorunsahigh­endperformanceandclassiccarbusinessbasedinDerbyshire,foundedhisfirstpanyatjust12yearsold.“Ihadnoschooleducation，〞hesays.“BusinesswashowIlearnedeverything.IcallittheHartleyUniversityofLife.〞Hisbusiness,43yearson,turnsover￡200m,andsellscarstohigh­net­worthindividualsacrosstheglobe,fromHollywoodcelebritiestoforeignroyalty.Manyyearsago,Hartleywasaskedtoexplainwhyhehadchosentobeself­educatedandwhyhehadsupportedhissonCarl’sdecisiontoleaveschoolandjointhefamilybusinessinstead.“Igotalotofcriticismatthetime，〞hesays.“Itriedtoexplainthatyoucan’tteachgutfeelingsonablackboardandthatschoolisfineifyouwanttobeadoctororflyarockettothemoonbutotherwiseit’sallaboutexperienceinbusiness.〞语篇解读：十年前，人们很重视中高等教育，学徒工作被认为是辍学者的一种选择，而不是一种大胆的职业选择。而如今，状况已发生了转变，年轻人被鼓舞仔细思索学术是否适合他们，如假设不适合，他们可以放弃教育而开头创业。5．WhatdoestheunderlinedsentenceinParagraph2indicate?A．Thesituationabovehaschanged.B．Educationisnomoreimportantnowadays.C．Thingschangefortheworsefordropouts.D．Universityfeesarebeinghigherandh
