G.TheideaofthisdictionarycamefromanimportantmeetinginBritainin1857.参考答案：36.E37.F38.B39.A40.D【名师点睛】七选五阅读题，有部分题出现在每一段的开始位置，若问题在段首1.通常是段落主题句。认真阅读该段落，根据段落一致性原则，查找相关词或者同义词，从而推测出主题句，找到答案。2.与后文是并列、转折、因果关系等。着重阅读后文第一两句，锁定线索信号词，然后在选项中查找相关特征词。一般来说正确答案与它后面的一句话的在意思上是衔接的，所以通常情况下，这两句话中会有某种的衔接手段。3.段落间的过渡句。这时要前瞻后望找到启示，即阅读上一段结尾部分，通常正确答案与上一段结尾有机地衔接起来，并结合下一段内容，看所选的答案是否将两段内容连贯起来。38.B根据下句：在他十四岁的时候，他离开了苏格兰的乡村学校，并在银行工作期间自学。后来成了一位了不起的老师。可知B.Murrayhadneverbeentocollege.Murray从来没有上过大学。符合题意，故选B。三、阅读理解18.任务型阅读（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。Manypeopleoftenlosetheirchancetolivelifetothefullestbecauseofprocrastination,whichmeansthattheyalwaysdelay（拖延）doingsomethingthatmustbedoneatonce.Moreover,becausetheyoftenputofftheirplanstill“tomorrow”,theyarelesslikelytoachievetheirgoalsandwillgiveuptheirdreamsandgoalsfinally.Asaresult,wecansaythatprocrastinationistheenemyofaprogressivelifestyle.Nowthatweknowprocrastinationissomethingbad,whydosomepeoplenottakeimmediateaction?Well,therearesomethingsthatresultinprocrastination.Dependingonsomeoneelseratherthandoingbyoneselfisoneofthethings.Wheneveryouwaitforsomethingtohappenbeforeyouact,youmakeiteasiertodelayyourgoalsanddreamsuntil“someday”.Anothercauseofprocrastinationisthatpeopledonotvalueeachmomentintheirday.Actually,it’ssurprisinghowmuchyoucandoifyoujustdecidetodolittlethingswiththelittletimeyouhave.Alsothosewhooftenprocrastinatecanalwaysfindagoodreasonforsomethingtheyrefusetodoatonce.Ifyouareoneofthosewhooftendelay,thenit’stimeforyoutomakeadecisiontoactnowbecausethingshappenonlywhenwedecidetoact.Getdowntodoingsomethinglikelosingweight,savingmoneyorspendingmoretimewithfamily.Don’tletthesethingscontinuetobeadesire（欲望）foryoutodo“someday”,butmakeadecisiontodoitnow.Onceyouhavemadeyourdecision,writedowntheplanandtakeactionimmediately.Makingplanscanhelpyouthinkcarefullyabouthowyouaregoingtodowhatyouneedtodo.Afterunderstandinghowtodowhatyouwanttodo,getdoingwiththeplan.Itdoesn’tmatterhowsmallthemoveyoumakeisasthelittlethingsyoudoaccumulate（累积）overtimeandmoveyoutobeclosertoyourgoals.So,don’twaituntiltomorrow;instead,startnow!Justmakeuseofeverymomentyouhavetodosomethingthatishelpfulinrealizingyourdreamsandgoals.Hereisachallengethatwillalsomoveyoutobeclosertoyourdreamsandgoalsiftakenseriously.Makealistoftenthingsyouhavebeenputtingoff.Itcouldbeanythingfromgettingahealthexamination,callingafriendorfamilymember,togettingthecarfixedandcleaningoutthegarbage,etc.Andthentrytodevelopthehabitofdoingthemimmediately!
