onisausefultoolforrealizinganydream.(想象是实现任何梦想的有用工具。)中“usefultoolforrealizinganydream”统领下文“lessensfears”、“strengthensbelief”等具体作用，形成“总述作用→具体表现”的结构，强调想象对成功的价值。故选D项。第三部分知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。ThessalonikaArzu-Embryisateenagegirlandarolemodelforyoungpeoplebyinspiringandhelpingothersthroughherachievements.____21____hasneverbeenaproblemforher.Shegraduatedfromhighschoolattheageof11,earnedabachelor’sdegreeinPsychologyattheageof14andanMBAattheageof16.____22____,shedidn’tstopthere.TheteenstartedaPhDprograminaviationpsychology(航空心理学).Her____23____foraviationwasexcitedbyherfather,aprivate____24____,whonowworksatO’HareInternationalAirport.“WhenIbegantothinkaboutaprofession,I____25____onewhereIcouldmakeanimpact,”shetoldBlackDoctor,“Ifeel____26____fortheopportunitytohelpothersatanearlyage.”She____27____thatheraviationpsychologydegreewillgivehertheknowledgeneededtoprevent“humanfactorerrors”thatcan____28____planecrashes.Shesaysthepsychologyaspectwillhelphertounderstandifapilotis____29____,stressedoutordealingwithotherissuesthatcan____30____impacthisperformanceonthejob.Inadditiontobeingonthe____31____tracktoearningherdoctorate,Arzu-Embryisalsopursuingvariousbusinessprojects.Besides____32____appsforGoogleandApplesystems,sheispromotingher____33____she’swrittenandattendingspeakingengagementsto_____34_____otherpeopletodowhatshe’sdoing.Sofar,shehaspublishedbooks,includingSettled:JusticeforAll,IntheFuture,ThenGeniusRace,JumptheEducationBarrierandPerspicaciousInvesting.Asyoucansee,Thessalonikahasalready____35____alot,andofcourse,she’sjustgettingstarted.21.A.Age
