9.Too many of us are waiting too long to live our best lives.We keep putting everything off until tomorrow.Then,before we know it,we find ourselves asking,"How did it get so late so soon?"
So we'd better make today the beginning of our new life.Take time to figure ourselves out.Take time to realize what we want and need.Take time to love,laugh,cry,and learn.(11)C.Here are five things we should start doing today:
Accept ourselves.The secret to happiness and success is the acceptance of ourselves.We will never become who we want to be if we rely on everyone else to qualify us.(12) E .So always go with ourselves,never against ourselves.Be who we were created to be and we will set the world on fire.
Make ourselves a priority.To tell the truth,there are only a few people in this world who will stay 100% true to us,so we should stay true to ourselves.Put our own needs into the list of things to do.
(13)A .Don't sit back and let things happen to us.Go out and make things happen.We are what we do,not what we say we'll do.Stop saying"I wish"and start saying"I will".Turn our dreams into plans.
Do the work.We can't underestimate (低估) a person who always works hard.Be that person.(14)G.Always remember that the task ahead of us is never greater than the strength within us.Do what's right,not what's easy.Our dreams are worth it.
(15)F.We can't force things to happen; we can only drive ourselves trying crazily.There's a time and place for everything.So don't force what's not yet supposed to fit into our life.When it's meant to be,it will be.Work hard,and be patient.
A.Take positive action.
B.Enjoy every moment of life.
C.Life is shorter than it often seems.
D.Everyone has a different way of life.
E.Accept ourselves just the way we are.
F.Allow life to happen like it's supposed to.
G.In life,we don't get what we wish for; we get what we work for.
分析 本文屬于人生感悟類的短文閱讀.我們要把今天當作我們新生活的開始,不要坐等事情發(fā)生,所以我們應積極行動起來,接受現(xiàn)狀,努力拼搏,創(chuàng)造自己的夢想.
解答 C E A G F
11.C.考查上下文的理解能力.本段第一句話講到"我們最好把今天當作我們新生活的開始",隨后的三個排比句都以"Take time"開頭,故此處應表示"生活比人們表面上看來的要短",選C.
12.E.考查上下文的理解能力.本段的中心句是第一句話,表示"接受自己",下文都是圍繞這一主題展開,故選E"接受我們本來的樣子".
13.A.考查上下文的理解能力.根據(jù)空后的兩句話可知,不要坐等事情發(fā)生,要行動起來,去讓事情發(fā)生.所以我們應積極行動起來,選A.
14.G.考查上下文的理解能力.本段的中心句是第一句話,表示"埋頭工作".根據(jù)本段的內(nèi)容可知,只有不斷努力,我們才會得到想要的東西.故選G.
15.F.考查上下文的理解能力.生活不能勉強,所以我們應允許生活按照它本來的樣子進行.點睛句是"There's a time and place for everything.",意思是"每件事都有它的時間和地點".因此本句填F.
點評 對于選句填空這種題型要搞明白上下文之間的邏輯關(guān)系,要根據(jù)對話者所說的語氣及語義關(guān)系來做出判斷;只要符合文章的結(jié)構(gòu)、通順合理即可.
