(10)考查动词。句意:圣诞节到了。我给每个孩子一张二十美元的钞票,建议他们每人找一份约四美元的礼物。persuaded“说服”;commanded“命令”;advised“建议”; forced“强迫”。根据语境和常识,可知家长对孩子们提的建议,故选C。

9.For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

People hold different views on almost anything, mainly because of the culture we are familiar with or the education we have received. We live in a 1 world where people are quick to point out the faults and imperfections of others, yet seem unaware of their own. Some misguided souls believe they have a duty to help you to be a better person by telling you what a failure you really are first and then offering suggestions as to how you can improve.

So what is the possible solution to 2 ? If you are the one forcing others to feel 3 themselves, STOP. Make a conscious decision rather than 4 the negative aspect of a person's performance or attitudes. You'll offer helpful suggestions from the beginning. If I'm painting our living room and 5 in doing so, I would like my husband to say to me, \"This is a tough job. Can I offer a suggestion that might make it easier for you?\" rather than have him

point out what a 6 painter I am and then tell me how I should be doing it.

If you are on the 7 end of criticism, the \"OK\" response is a perfect solution. When someone comments negatively on a task you are doing or a personality issue of yours, a(n) 8 response is to defend and attack. However, this approach is rarely effective as it puts both parties on the 9 . Instead, simply reply with \"OK\". This brief one-word response 10 the other person's comment without agreeing with it or feeling necessary to engage in a debate about it.

It is important to remain emotionally attached to what the other person is saying, to listen without feeling, to be a(n) 11 observer. In fact, there is much that one can learn from a 12 review. You can ask yourself: Did I make a mistake? Could I have done better? Did I give 100% of myself to the task at hand? If so, how can I improve myself? As for chronic (习惯性的) criticizers: It is important to set strict boundary with them. Remove yourself from their 13 when necessary.

14 , one can learn to be \"OK\" with criticism and not allow it to negatively impact your life or relationship with the other party. Examine it for any potential 15 , and then let it go and just be \"OK\". 1. A. dependent 2. A. criticism 3. A. devoted to 4. A. turn down 6. A. considerate 7. A. forcing 8. A. avoidable 9. A. impolite 10. A. ignores 11. A. active 13. A. praise 15. A. harm

B. judgmental B. imperfection B. get rid of B. careless B. receiving B. meaningless B. dangerous B. acknowledges B. initiative B. presence B. conflict

C. selfish C. failure C. cover up C. humble C. criticizing C. extreme C. defensive C. eliminates C. creative C. negative C. comment C. obstacle

D. creative D. unawareness D. focus on

D. offering a helpful hand D. modest D. advising D. natural D. regretful D. declines D. objective D. instructive D. help D. truth

B. connected with C. ashamed of D. concerned about

5. A. making a mess B. asking for trouble C. having fun

12. A. reasonable B. agreeable

14. A. In any case B. On the contrary C. To begin with D. For instance

【答案】 (1)B;(2)A;(3)C;(4)D;(5)A;(6)B;(7)B;(8)D;(9)C;(10)B;(11)D;(12)C;(13)B;(14)A;(15)D;

16.完形填空

Over the past few decades, more and more countries have opened up the markets, increasingly transforming the world economy into one free-flowing global market. The question is:Is economic globalization 1 for all?

According to the World Bank, one of its chief supporters, economic globalization has helped reduce 2 in a large number of developing countries. It quotes one study that shows increased wealth 3 to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries as a result of integration (融合) of local economies into the world economy. Home to some three billion people, these twenty-four countries have seen incomes 4 at an average rate of five percent—compared to two percent in developed countries.

Those who 5 globalization claim that economies in developing countries will benefit from new opportunities for small and home-based businesses. 6 , small farmers in Brazil who produce nuts that would originally have sold only in 7 open-air markets can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet.

Critics take a different view, believing that economic globalization is actually 8 the gap between the rich and poor. A study carried out by the U.N.-sponsored World Commission on the Social Dimension of Globalization shows that only a few developing countries have actually 9 from integration into the world economy and that the poor, the uneducated, unskilled workers, and native peoples have been left behind. 10 , they maintain that globalization may eventually threaten emerging businesses. For example, Indian craftsmen who currently seem to benefit from globalization because they are able to 11 their products may soon face fierce competition that could put them out of 12 . When large-scale manufacturers start to produce the same goods, or when superstores like Wal-Mart move in, these small businesses will not be able to 13 and will be crowded out.

One thing is certain about globalization—there is no 14 . Advances in technology combined with more open policies have already created an interconnected world. The 15 now is finding a way to create a kind of globalization that works for the benefit of all. (347 words) 1. A. possible 2. A. crime 4. A. remain 5. A. doubt 6. A. In addition 7. A. mature 8.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文,文章先提出问题:全球化经济化到底有益吗?然后列出了两种相反的观点:一种观点陈述的是全球化带来的好处,一种观点陈述的是全球化带来的问题,各有充足的论点和论据。最后得出结论,全球化不可避免、无回头路可走,只有想办法找到一条最好的全球化的道路。(1)考查形容词。possible”可能“; smooth ”顺利的,光滑的,平稳的“; good”好的“; easy”简单的“。根据上文“increasingly transforming the world economy into one free-flowing global market”逐渐地把世界经济转变为了一个自由流动的全球大市场。很明显这是讲的市场开放的好处,因此后面提出问题,“问题是,经济全球化对所有人都好吗(有好处吗)?”,故选择C项。

(2)考查名词。根据下文“It quotes one study that shows increased wealth 3 to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries ”中的increased wealth增加的财

富,可知,市场开放给这些国家带来了财富的增加,财富增加了,那么就是减少了贫困问题,即选择B项。crime\"犯罪\"; poverty\"贫困\"; conflict\"冲突\"; population\"人口\"。

(3)考查动词短语。contribute to ”促成,导致“; respond to ”对……做出反应 “;turn to ”转向,向某人求助“; owe to”由于“。 根据下文”improved education and longer life “可知,教育得到了改善,人的寿命得到了延长,因此是产生了好的促进作用,因此选择A项。 (4)考查动词。根据上文”It quotes one study that shows increased wealth 3 to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries“可知,这24个国家的财富增加了,也就是说他们的收入增加了,即increase。句意为,这24个国家的人的收入增加了平均百分之五。remain ”仍然“; drop”下降 “;shift”变化“; increase”增加“。因此选择D。 (5)考查动词。doubt “怀疑”; define “定义、规定、明确” ;advocate “提倡、拥护”; ignore“忽视”。根据下文的 “economies in developing countries will benefit from new opportunities for small and home-based businesses”发展中国家的经济会收益,源于小型的、家庭型生意获得的新机会,尤其是其中的“benefit from”可知,该观点的those人们是支持,提倡市场开放的,因此选择C项。

(6)考查固定短语。上一句讲到了小型的、家庭型的生意会获得等多的机会,该句讲的是他们具体是得到怎样的机会,因此属于具体说明、举例说明,故选择B 项。for instance“例如”;in addition“此外”,表递进关系;in other words“换句话说”;all in all“总而言之”。 (7)考查形容词。根据下文“can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet.”中的now, worldwide与前半句的originally和 in 7 open-air markets “是对比关系,即过去是当地市场,现在市场开放后是全球市场。因此选择C项。local ”当地的“;mature”成熟的“;new”新的“;foreign”国外的“。

(8)考查动词。根据上文“Critics take a different view”可知,该部分陈述的是反对市场开放的观点,因此他们认为市场开放会加大穷人和富人之间的差距。widen \"变宽 \";find\"找到\";explore\"探索\";bridge\"架桥、度过\",故选择D。

(9)考查动词。suffer”遭受“; profit”获益、盈利“;learn”学习“;withdraw”撤退、收回“。根据下文“ the poor, the uneducated, unskilled workers, and native peoples have been left behind”可知,穷人、未受教育的人、没有技术的工人和当地人都被丢在了后面,也就是说只有少部分人是从中(市场开放)收益的,即profit from sth,”从……中受益、获益“。 (10)考查副词。根据下文的“globalization may eventually threaten emerging businesses.”意为全球化会逐渐威胁到新兴企业。该观点与上面几句的观点类似,都是属于反对市场开放的,但是该观点与上面的加大贫富差距不一样,因此跟上一观点是递进关系,因此选择A项。furthermore”此外“,表递进关系;therefore”因此“,因果关系;however”然而“,转折关系 ;otherwise”否则“,转折关系。

(11)考查动词。根据上文中的“small farmers in Brazil who produce nuts that would originally have sold only in 7 open-air markets can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet”可知,当地人可以通过互联网把商品卖到世界各地,即向国外出口商品,故选择C。句意:例如,印度的手艺人目前看起来是从全球化中收益了,因为他们可以出口他们的商品,但是他们很快就会面对激烈的竞争,这可能会让他们破产。 consume\"消耗、消费\"; deliver\"递送,发表\";export”出口“;advertise\"做广告\"。

(12)考查固定短语。根据“face fierce competition ”可知,激烈的竞争可能会导致他们破产,即out of business.故选择B项。out of trouble” 脱离困境 :out of business “破产”;out of power “丧失权利 ”; out of mind“心不在焉”。

(13)考查动词短语。keep up“保持、继续、不落后”;come in“进来”;go around“四处走动、供应”; help out“帮助……摆脱困境”。 根据上文的out of business“破产”和下文的be crowded out“被排挤出去”可知,此处指的是小手艺人的生意将不能继续下去。故选择A。 (14)考查动词短语。根据下文可知,随着科技的发展,还会有更多的开放政策,将会出现更好的全球化,因此可知,全球化是必然的,是没有回头路可走的,因此选择D项,turn back“往回走”;take off“起飞,脱掉” ;get along“相处、进展”;hold out“伸出、坚持”。

(15)考查名词。agreement“同意、一致”; prediction“预测、预计”;outcome“后果”;challenge“挑战”。句意,目前最大的挑战就是找到一个方法,来创造出一个能够对每一个人都有好处的全球化。选D。
