【答案】24.C25.C26.A27.D

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者的经历，作者和妻子每次养室内植物都会失败，后来作

者患病后，养了一株竹子，作者也把竹子和自己的健康联系在一起。

24.细节理解题。根据文章第一段"Mywife,Hannah,andIdon'tusuallykeephouseplants.Anythinginpotsgets

eitheroverwateredorunderwatered,butaftermydiagnosis（诊断）withbraincancer,Ilovedtheideaofhaving

somethinggreenaround.（我妻子汉娜和我通常不养室内植物。花盆里的任何东西要么浇水过多，要么浇水不

足，但在我被诊断出患有脑癌之后，我喜欢周围有一些绿色的东西。）“可知，作者和妻子每次养室内植物都

会失败；再根据第二段“Whenitdidn'timmediatelyturnyelloworloseleaves,Iwaspleasantlysurprised.（当它没

有立即变黄或落叶时，我感到惊喜。）”可知，作者看到竹子没有变黄和落叶时，感到惊喜是因为他和妻子之

前养室内植物都失败了。故选C。

25.词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“Asafamilyphysician,Iwasusedtoofferingcare,notreceivingit.（作为一名

家庭医生，我习惯于提供照顾，而不是接受照顾。）“可知，作者一直以来都习惯于提供照顾。而根据划线句

子前一句"Sincemydiagnosis,Ihadtorelyonhelpfromotherpeople.（自从我被确诊后，我不得不依靠别人的

帮助。）”可知，确诊之后，作者不得不依靠别人的帮助，也就是不能继续给别人提供照顾了。因此，划线句

子的隐含意思指的是，给植物浇水又唤起了作者照顾别人的渴望。故选C。

26.推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Hannahremindedmethatwe'dseenhouseplantsdiebefore,butIcouldn't

shakethefeelingthattheplanthadbecomeasymbolofmyhealth.Igrewincreasinglydepressedandfearful.（汉娜

提醒我，我们以前见过室内植物死去，但我无法摆脱这种感觉，那棵植物已经成为我健康的象征。我变得

越来越沮丧和恐惧。）”和最后一段"Lookingback,IrealizedIhadwronglyconnectedmycaringofthe

plant——somethingIcouldmanage——withmyownsurvival——somethingIcouldn't.KnowingIcouldn'tcontrolmy

fate（命运）,myanxietyactuallylessened.（回想起来，我意识到我错误地把我对植物的照顾这是我能做到

的——和我自己的生存联系起来——这是我不能做到的。）“可知，作者感到恐惧的原因是因为作者把植物的

健康和自己的健康联系在一起，所以看到植物开始枯萎，作者就联想到自身的健康，因此感到害怕。故选A。

27.细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Lookingback,Irealized1hadwronglyconnectedmycaringofthe

plant—somethingIcouldmanage—withmyownsurvival—somethingIcouldn't.KnowingIcouldn'tcontrolmy

fate（命运）,myanxietyactuallylessened.（回想起来，我意识到我错误地把我对植物的照顾----这是我能做到

的——和我自己的生存联系起来——这是我不能做到的。知道自己无法控制自己的命运后，我的焦虑反而

减轻了可知，作者接受了自己不可避免的局限性，知道自己无法控制自己命运后，他的焦虑也就减轻了。

故选D。

【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了正确的失败观——相比于仅仅把失败当作一种幸运，更多地是要

有建设性地“失败”，勇敢面对失望，并从中学习到经验。作者警示我们要警惕“酸葡萄效应“，不要企图通过

逃避失败的方式，来避免失败和失望。

32.推理判断题。根据第二段“However,psychologicalresearchesfindmostofusstruggletohandlefailure

constructively.Inotherwords,wefailto4tfailfbrward,\Wefindwaystodevaluethetaskatwhichwefailed,and

becomelessmotivatedtopersevereandreachourgoals.（然而，心理学研究发现，我们大多数人都难以做到建

设性地处理失败。换句话说，我们没有“向前失败我们想办法贬低我们失败的任务，降低坚持和实现目标

的动力。户可知，第一段提出了一个看似正确但实则肤浅的观点，以便后文提出作者自己的见解：仅仅把失

败当作一种幸运是肤浅的，而要有建设性地“失败”，从中学习经验。故选B。

33.细节理解题。根据第三段“Sjastadexplainsthat4tsour-grapeeffect"isaself-protectivemechanism."Mostofus
