完形填空(共20小题;每小题。1.5分,满分30分) There are going to be moments in life when you must make very important decisions. You will find many people 36 to offer you advice if you ask for it (and even if you don’t), but always remember that the life you 37 is yours and nobody else’s. It’s important to decide for yourself what’s important to you and what you want before you 38 others. Because while there will be times 39 outside advice proves wise, there will be at least as many times when it proves completely 40.. The only way to really evaluate other folks’ advice is to first learn everything that you can about whatever challenge you are 41 . Once you’ve done that, in most cases you should be able to make a wise decision 42 anyway. You were 43 with the ability to decide what is and what isn’t in your best interest. Most of the time, you will make the right decision and 44 the appropriate actions, and in thinking for yourself, you will become far more successful than if you had gone against your own 45 . Early on in my investment career, I made the mistake of 46 a few important business decisions on colleagues’ opinions instead of conducting the 47 necessary to make a wise decision. It wasn’t due to 48 on my part; no one could ever accuse me of that. But, being 49 to Wall Street, I intended to assume that my more senior 50 knew more than I did, and so I 51 too much significance to their opinions. You know what happened? Each of those investments ended in 52 . Eventually I stopped allowing myself to be influenced by 53 and began doing the work myself and making my own decisions. It took me until I was almost 30 years old to 54 this—it’s never too late for a person to change his approach both to 55 and to life. 1. A. easy B. ready C. unwilling D. hard 2. A. lead B. lend C. take D. earn 3. A. look at B. pick up C. turn to D. learn from 4. A. that B. since C. when D. while 5. A. useless B. useful C. priceless D. clever 6. A. getting B. making C. suffering D. facing 7.A. on one hand B. on your own C. on the whole D. on all sides 8. A. born B. tired C. satisfied D. covered 9. A. enjoy B. step C. plan D. take 10. A. assumption B. judgment C. condition D. fortune 11. A. basing B. depending C. relying D. focusing 12.A. research B. search C. resources D. activity 13. A. poverty B. laziness C. fear D. diligence 14.A. used B. accustomed C. new D. old 15.A. students B. brothers C. colleagues D. classmates 16. A. attached B. paid C. gave D. held 17. A. disaster B. progress C. failure D. success 18.A. either B. another C. each D. others 19.A. think B. remember C. realize D. recall 20. A. payment B. dreams C. happiness D. business

People in the United States honor their parents with two special days:Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sunday in June. These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible(有责任感的) citizens. They give love and care. These two days make us think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. More fathers must help with child care. These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(墓地).On these days families get together at home,as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Father’s Day.These are days of fun and good feelings and memories. Another tradition is to give cards and gifts.Children make them in school.Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores. It is not the value of the gift that is important, but it is “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakeries, telephone companies, and other stores do a lot of business during these holidays. 1.Which of the following is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for parents? A. Parents bring up children. B. Parents give love and care to children. C. Parents educate children to be good persons. D. Parents pass away before children grow up. 2.What do you think “florists” do? A. They sell flowers. B. They make and sell bread. C. They offer enough room for having family parties. D.

Imagine a classroom missing the one thing that's long been considered a necessary part to reading and writing ? Paper. No notebooks, no textbooks, no test paper. Nor are there any pencils or pens, which always seem to run out of ink at the critical (关键的) moment. A "paperless classroom" is what more and more schools are trying to achieve. Students don't do any handwriting in this class. Instead, they use palm (手掌) size, or specially-designed computers. The teacher downloads texts from Internet libraries and sends them to every student's personal computer. Having computers also means that students can use the Web. They can look up information on any subject they're studying ? from maths to social science. High school teacher Judy Herrell in Florida, US, described how her class used the Web to learn about the war in Afganistan (阿富汗) over one year ago. "We could touch every side of the country through different sites ? from the forest to refugee camps (难民营)," she said. "Using a book that's three or four years old is impossible." And exams can go online too. At a high school in Tennessee, US, students take tests on their own computers. The teacher records the grades on the network for everyone to see and then copies them to his own electronic grade book. A paperless classroom is a big step towards reducing the waste of paper. High school teacher Stephanie Sorrell in Kentucky, US, said she used to give about 900 pieces of paper each week to each student. "Think about the money and trees we could save with the computers," she said. But, with all this technology, there's always the risk (危险) that the machines will break down. So, in case of a power failure or technical problems, paper textbooks are still widely available (可用的) for these hi-tech students. 1. What does the part of the last sentence in the first paragraph, “run out of ink at the critical moment”, mean? A. Pens may not write well at the critical moment. B. Pens get lost easily, so you may not find them at the critical moment. C. Pens may have little or no ink at the critical moment. D. Pens use ink, while pencils don't. 2. In a paperless classroom, what is a must? A. Pens. B. Computers. C. Information. D. Texts. 3.The high school teacher, Judy Herrell, used the example of her class to show that _______. A. the Web could take them everywhere B. the Web taught them a lot C. the Web is a good tool for information D. the Web, better than the textbooks, can give the latest and comprehensive (全面的) information 4.The paperless classrooms will benefit _____ the most. A. students B. teachers C. trees D. computers 5.What does the phrase in the last paragraph, “break down”, mean? A. Break into pieces. B. Stop working. C. Fall down. D. Lose control.
