专题限时训练(十三)

(-)

作者从一所学校的普通学生成长为该校的老师，后来又接任校长职务，期间一直得到一

个人的帮助，作者为拥有这样的良师而感到庆幸。

1.A当时DrOffutt是作者的老师，所以应向学生“解释”他们将要学习的内容。

speak表示说话的内容时是不及物动词，teach用在此处丝毫没有意义。

2.C根据but一词可推测作者现在虽然身为校长，可当年并不知未来如何。

3.D他不仅教育作者思考，而且以大量事例让作者“信服”。根据本句中的asmuch

byexample可知是举例让作者相信他的话。

4.A根据下文的ourrelationshipchanged可判断此项正确。后三项分别表示“职

位”、“形势”、"条件；状况”，在文中都没有信息支持。

5.B儿年后，作者被“任命”为系主任，此处name是动词，表示“任命；提名”。A

项表示“指出”，应改为appointed。

6.D本句中间部分提到作者以前的英语老师仍然在此处工作，所以作者认为管理这个

系的工作极具“挑战”性。

7.C根据but一词可知DrOffutt自始至终“支持”作者。下一句提供了暗示。

8.A上文提到作者很茫然，不知所措，由此可知他给作者提供“建议”。此处，根据

后面give宾语的内容也可以判断此项正确。

9.B本段第一句提到作者即将出任另一所学校的校长，由此可知这是一次“机

会”。根据本句的前一句可知作者并没有决定去担当此任，所以A项不正确；C项表示“占

据；占有；职业”，与语义不符。

10.C上文提到作者遇到困难时他总是提供帮助和支持，由此可判断此项正确。下一

句也是暗示。

11.D伟大的老师有“取之不尽的”课程资源财富。A、C两项有一定的干扰牲，但不

能很好地与great相搭配。

12.A作者认为学生拥有良师无比“幸运”，因为作者对DrOffutt这样的优秀老师

永远铭记在心。

BobbyMoresco出身普通工人家庭，他想摆脱当建筑工人或警察的命运，希望能成为

演员，并克服了种种困难为之奋斗了数十年，最后终于成了•位著名的剧作家。

13.DBobby从少年时期就开始演戏，但如同后来所知，他的演艺生涯一直不成功，

因此此处可填good表示“不是一个好演员”。

14.A虽然不是一个好的演员.他还是希望能改变自己的人生，“做••些使生活变得

不同的事情”。

15.C为了实现自己的夙愿，他去了好莱坞碰运气，“碰运气”可使用

meet(find)one,sfortune表示，故此空选择fortune。

16.D因为太想当名演员，所以他自愿在自己开办的一个表演单位做出租司机和服

务员的工作。

17.B根据上下文的意思可知尽管他目前做的工作很辛苦，但他仍然执著于自己选择

的事业,chosen符合句意。afford“给予，提供"，respect“尊敬”,offer“提供”,均

与句意不符。

18.D这里的意思是他写了一部与他自己生活有关的戏剧，“与……有关”可使用be

relatedto表示，因此此处选择related。

19.C上文已经谈到他的兄弟被谋杀.此处选择killing即指此事。

20.D这里是指他渐渐有了名气。reputation意思是“名气，名望”，为最佳选项。

influence"影响"，ambition“雄心"及success"成功"均不符合题意。

21.B正在他穷困潦倒时，他接到了•个导演的电话。when可表示“正当这时”。

22.A尽管剧本被一次次驳回，但他对自己的作品有着强烈的信心，选择strongly可

反映他坚强的意志力。

23.B由于在此之前一直没有人赏识，因此他的电影是“悄悄地”被放映的，同时根

据后面的quietly的排比手法也可选出答案。

24.C这里是指他一举成名，“一举成名"可用anovernightsuccess来表示。［

(三)

初为人师却遇到了棘手的问题。在上课过程中有人到教室声称学生将苹果扔到了他的车

上，然而自己得体的处理办法赢得了学生的尊重。

25.B从下文的“教室在二楼“可以知道，此处的building就是有“教室”的那一

座。

26.D从下文可以看出，这个教室不象教室，只是个普通房间，但牌子上的内容是

“教室”。

27.C常识考查，牌子应该挂在门口那个位置。

28.A与上句呼应，说明老师与学生年龄差距不大，有时候学生的长相和行为显得

比老师都要成熟。

29.D此处“put…。n”表示“写在……上”。

30.C这是根据事件发生的情形推断出来的答案，苹果吃了一半后扔出去了，其他

选项意义上都不通。

31.A这种“生气”的心情
