33、ide is desirable for you to change.（分数：60.00）A.herselfB.themselves C.ourselvesD.himself解析：解析 逻辑衔接题，此处讲的是现代人，故用 himself或 herself都不对；由短文第一句中的keep their reality可知，短文采用的是第三人称，所以 B正确。A.maskB.armorC.reality D.fact解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。本题属于同义复现，短文第一句提到 keep their reality confined and unknown，所以 C正确，即“发现真实的自己”；mask 意

34、为“掩饰，面具”，armor 意为“装甲”，fact意为“事实”，均排除。A.frustrating B.excitingC.interestingD.encouraging解析：解析 词义辨析题。结合空格前的 frightening和 and可知，空格处应填入与 frightening感情色彩相近的词。frustrating 意为“沮丧的”，exciting 意为“令人兴奋的”，interesting 意为“有趣的”，encouraging 意为“奖励的”，结合句意可知，A 正确。A.bestB.worst C.betterD.worse解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。本题属于反义复现。下文指出 t

35、hey may also discover the best，由此可知，空格处应填入表示“最坏的”之意的词，所以 B正确。A.reliesB.lies C.basesD.according解析：解析 惯用搭配题。rely 和 base常与 on搭配使用，rely on 意为“依赖于”；base on 意为“以为基础”；according 常与 to连用，意为“根据”；lie in 是惯用搭配，意为“在于”。结合句意可知，B 正确。A.howB.whyC.whatD.whether 解析：解析 惯用搭配题。结合空格后的 or not可知，选项中只有 whether能与 or not搭配，意为“是

36、否”，而且由下一句也可推出 D正确。A.to B.onC.withD.in解析：解析 惯用搭配题。live up to 是惯用搭配，意为“达到，做到”，所以 A正确。A.BothB.Either C.OneD.Neither解析：解析 词义辨析题。both 指“两者都”，either 指“两者之一”，one 泛指“一个”，neither指“两者都不”。结合上下文可知，上面提到了最坏和最好的两种发现，发现任何一个都涉及改变，所以此处应指“两者之一”，故选 B。A.therefore B.howeverC.evenD.but解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。空格前句意为“发现任何一个都涉及改变”，空格后意为

37、“导致焦虑”，推知前后为因果关系，选项中只有 therefore表因果关系，故选 A。A.ThereforeB.MoreoverC.ThenD.However 解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。空格前句谈到焦虑，是负面影响，空格所在句谈到其积极的一面，两者之间为转折关系，所以 D正确。A.possibility B.patternC.anxietyD.decision解析：解析 词义辨析题。possibility 意为“可能性”，联系上文可知，本句是对 excitement的进一步说明，即“可能会激起一个人想要成功的激情”，故选 A；pattern 意为“样式”，anxiety 意为“焦虑”，decis

38、ion 意为“决定”，均排除。A.instrumentB.applianceC.equipmentD.tool 解析：解析 词义辨析题。instrument 意为“器械”，appliance 意为“用具，器具”，equipment 意为“装备，设备”，tool 意为“方法，手段”，结合句意“相互作用分析法是一种能用来了解自己的_”可知，D 正确。A.course B.processC.trackD.direction解析：解析 词义辨析题。course 意为“道路，路线”，结合上下文和句意“知道自己人生所走的富有戏剧性的_”可知，A 正确；process 意为“过程”，track 意为“轨迹”

39、，direction 意为“方向”，均排除。A.bewareB.aware C.awakeD.unconscious解析：解析 词义辨析题。beware 意为“小心，谨防”，是动词；aware 意为“意识到的”，是形容词；awake意为“醒的”，unconscious 意为“无意识的”。由于 become后面不能接动词，故排除 A；而后面能接 of的有 B、D 两项，再结合句意可知，B 正确。含“小心”之意的词组辨析：be aware of 意为“知道，意识到”，例如：I was not aware of the fire我没有意识到火。beware of 意为“注意，当心”，例如：We ha

40、d to beware of the icy patches on the road我们要小心路面上的冰。be unconscious of 意为“没有意识到”，例如：I was unconscious of her presence我不知道她在场。A.chooseB.changeC.distinguish D.compare解析：解析 惯用搭配题。选项中能与 beteen搭配的只有 distinguish，distinguish between 意为“区分，分辨”，所以 C正确；choose 意为“选择”，change 意为“改变”，compare 意为“比较”，均排除。A.transact

41、ion B.transitionC.transmissionD.transformation解析：解析 词义辨析题。transaction 意为“交流，沟通”，transition 意为“转变，转换”，transmission意为“播送，发射”，transformation 意为“变化，转化”，结合句意可知，A 正确。另外，本题下文紧接着出现了 transactions，空格处相当于它的同义复现，由此也可得出正确答案。A.muchB.more C.fewD.littlc解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。结合上下文和句意“通过分析你的人际沟通，你可以清醒地控制自己和他人的交往”可知，相互作用分析能帮助人们

42、了解自己的行为，从而进行控制。所以应该是更清醒地控制自己，故选 B。A.desireB.frame C.stageD.step解析：解析 词义辨析题。frame 有“形式”之意，结合句意“相互作用分析是一种有效的了解自身的_”可知，B 正确；desire 意为“愿望”，stage 意为“阶段”，step 意为“步骤”，均排除。A.evaluate B.changeC.makeD.decide解析：解析 词义辨析题。evaluate 意为“评价，估计”，结合空格后的 old decision可知，对之前的决定已经无法改变或重做决定，只能对其进行评价，故选 A；change 意为“改变”，make

43、 意为“制造，产生”，decide 意为“决定”，均排除。A.whichB.thatC.whetherD.what 解析：解析 语法结构题。空格处应填入的关系代词既要作前面 change的宾语，又要作后面句子的主语，所以只能用 what，故选 D。三、Translation(总题数：5，分数：20.00)1.The workers of this factory had to have two days holiday 1(由于发动机出现故障).（分数：4.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：because of the breakdown of the engine）解析：解析 “由于”可译作

44、 due to/owing to/as a result of/because of等，后面接名词短语break-down of the engine。2. 1(正如不懂失败的人根本不懂成功一样), a person who has not experienced suffering or sadness never knows what happiness means.（分数：4.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Just as a person who does not know failure never knows success）解析：解析 “正如一样”译作 just as，从译文给

45、出的句式可看出从句最好也用 a person whonever knows句式，这样答案就出来了。3.Traffic accidents occur with alarming frequency, 1 (造成国家财产和生命的巨大损失).（分数：4.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：resulting in heavy losses of both lives and state property）解析：解析 本题考查动词的现在分词短语作伴随状语的用法，“造成”即“导致”，译作 result in，“巨大损失”译作 great losses或 heavy losses。4. 1(要是我来做这件

46、事), I would do it in a different way.（分数：4.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：If were to do it）解析：解析 由句意可知本题考查虚拟语气的用法。此类句子通常用 if表假设，由于是虚拟条件句，句子为第一人称，谓语动词应为 were，即 if I were to do it。5. 1(不是我不想帮你); its just that I dont have the time.（分数：4.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Its not that I dont want to help you）解析：解析 本题考查 it作形式主语的用法。可以使用句型 its not that或 its not because，但空格后句子中用了 its just that句型，而且两个句子是用分号连接的，所以空格处也用 Itsthat的句型，故答案为 Its not that I dont want to help you。
