9、 an Unpleasant voice and a direct way of speaking, 36 she was encouraging and inspiring. For some reason, she was impressed with my work and me. Mrs. Neidl would ask me for my 37 . She wanted to know how I thought we should 38 things. At first I had no idea how to answer because I knew 39 about stag

10、e design! But I slowly began to respond to her 40 . It was cause and effect: She believed I had opinions, so I began to 41 them. She trusted me to complete things, so I completed them perfectly. She loved how 42 I was, so I began to show up to paint more and more. She believed in me, so I began to b

Being on that stage-design team 50 Mrs. Neidl changed me completely. Not only was I stronger and more com

17、enjoyable C. possible D. favorable36.B考察連詞及句子理解。前面unpleasant voice 和 direct way of speaking是消極意向,后面encouraging 和 inspiring是積極意向,因此需填轉(zhuǎn)折連詞,四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中A表并列,C表結(jié)果，D表原因，只有B選項(xiàng)yet表轉(zhuǎn)折。37.A 考察名詞及篇章理解。第二段第二句話“她想知道我認(rèn)為我們該怎樣處理事情”直接提示了這個(gè)空應(yīng)該選觀點(diǎn)opinion這個(gè)詞. 第二段倒數(shù)第四句話中也出現(xiàn)了這個(gè)詞從而驗(yàn)證了其正確性。B. impression 印象、C. information 信息、D. i

18、ntention 意圖均不符合題意。38.C 考察動(dòng)詞及篇章理解。根據(jù)文章主線選擇“處理”事情。考綱要求考生掌握handle 的兩種意思，名詞是“柄、把”，動(dòng)詞是“處理”，這里考察后者。A, 做、創(chuàng)造 B 保持 D改變 均不符題意。39.D 考察代詞及句子理解。開始我不知如何回答是因?yàn)槲覍ξ枧_(tái)設(shè)計(jì)“一無所知”。 know nothing about sth 對某事一無所知。40.A 考察名詞及篇章理解。解題關(guān)鍵詞是本句的 ”respond 回答、響應(yīng)”, 線索是第二段第一句中的 “ask 提問”及第四句中的“answer 回答”， 因此這里填 “question 問題”這個(gè)詞。BD選項(xiàng)是評論，

19、C是解釋，不符題意。41.D 考察動(dòng)詞及篇章理解。本句的them指代opinions 。form opinion形成觀點(diǎn) 。hold opinion持有某種觀點(diǎn)，form 是個(gè)變化的狀態(tài)，hold是個(gè)持續(xù)的狀態(tài)，根據(jù)文意推斷作者開始并沒有觀點(diǎn)，由于她相信我有觀點(diǎn)所以我形成了觀點(diǎn)，強(qiáng)調(diào)形成這個(gè)過程，另外Begin to后接有變化感的詞，故選form不選hold. B. follow 遵照,C .evaluate評估與題意差別較大。42.C 考察形容詞及句子理解。解題線索在后半句 “so I began to show up to paint more and more ” 作者做的事情變多是Mr

20、s. Neidl信任的結(jié)果，說明我是個(gè)可信賴（reliable）的人,C選項(xiàng)符合題意。其他三個(gè)選項(xiàng)happy 高興的 lively活潑的和 punctual 準(zhǔn)時(shí)的都不能表達(dá)出這種合理的因果關(guān)系。另外迷惑性較大的lively通常用來形容物。 43. B考察名詞及句子理解。引號(hào)里是一句鼓勵(lì)性質(zhì)的話，而且前面“that year”也是線索，說明這話是她的motto座右銘。迷惑性較大的C選項(xiàng)saying是諺語的意思，往往是人們長期形成的對生活及經(jīng)驗(yàn)的總結(jié)，強(qiáng)調(diào)群體性及時(shí)間性，故不合適，message 信息，suggestion 建議，不合題意。44.D 考察副詞及篇章理解。本題難度較大，解題關(guān)鍵詞是

21、介詞“over”，表覆蓋。選擇later 可以理解為“如果沒有畫好，稍后可以再畫一次覆蓋在之前的畫上?！?more更多， I“再一次、又一次”但是放在這里與over意思重復(fù)，paint over it later相當(dāng)于 paint it again, 故不選A。 考察名詞及篇章理解。take risks 固定搭配，冒險(xiǎn)。通讀全文發(fā)現(xiàn)作者是開始很不自信，第四段開頭也提示了作者“shy” ,“quiet”,因此動(dòng)筆畫畫對他來說是個(gè)冒險(xiǎn)，是自我突破的過程，文章最后一段也提到了take chances冒險(xiǎn)，因此選D。take steps是采取措施、步驟的意思，與文章主題不搭，control 和 cha

22、rge 都有控制的意思，不合題意。46.A 考察動(dòng)詞及句子理解。Improve upon 改進(jìn)。線索是本段開頭的座右銘“試試吧，我們永遠(yuǎn)可以重畫一次?！币虼瞬淮嬖谑?，只存在改進(jìn)。Act upon按照、對起作用，look upon 看待、考慮，reflect upon 考慮、回顧，均不符題意。47.C 考察副詞及篇章理解。本段主要描寫了作者從不敢做到敢做的過程，根據(jù)前文提示作者曾很不自信，后來在Mrs. Neidl的鼓勵(lì)下自信地拿起了畫筆，因此選confidently. A easily 容易的。作者超越自我的過程并不容易。B carefully 小心地。創(chuàng)作并不是個(gè)小心翼翼的過程。D Pro

23、udly 驕傲地。文章中沒有任何體現(xiàn)。48.B 考察動(dòng)詞。Be recognized as“被公認(rèn)為、被承認(rèn)”。 Introduce 介紹、引入，be identified as“ 被確定是”，有驗(yàn)證身份的意思，be considered as “被認(rèn)為、被當(dāng)作”。其中 be recognize as 有“被大家承認(rèn)、被普遍接受”的意思，表意更準(zhǔn)確。49.C 考察動(dòng)詞。解題關(guān)鍵詞是“want ”。作者意識(shí)到自己想要的是什么，所以用realized. 迷惑項(xiàng)是decided 決定。可以說決定要什么，但不可以說決定想什么，因?yàn)橄敕ㄊ遣豢煽刂频?。Confirm 證實(shí) acknowledge 承認(rèn)，與

24、題意差別較大。50.A 考察介詞。Being with sb 與某人在一起。這里不能選of是因?yàn)槿牡谝痪湓挘琈rs. Neidl是“ one of the directors”，所以不能說是她的團(tuán)隊(duì)。Below 和 by 搭配錯(cuò)誤。51.B 考察動(dòng)詞。發(fā)現(xiàn)了一項(xiàng)愛好和一個(gè)未知的世界，選discovered. 迷惑項(xiàng)是developed , 這個(gè)詞可以與interest 連用表示形成了某種愛好，但是不可以與world連用表示“形成一個(gè)未知世界，”故排除。Take interest 取利，foster 培養(yǎng)，均不合適。52.B 考察動(dòng)詞及篇章理解?！八虝?huì)我不要去在乎別人認(rèn)為我該怎么做”，car

25、e 在乎，符合文意。Accept 接受，judge 判斷 ，wonder 懷疑 均不合文意。53.D 考察形容詞及句意理解。Be afraid害怕。前面說Take chance 冒險(xiǎn)，后面理所當(dāng)然說不要怕（失?。?，而且前文反復(fù)出現(xiàn)了afraid 這個(gè)詞，是全篇的關(guān)鍵詞。Bored 無聊的，lazy 懶惰的，sad 傷心的，在文中均無體現(xiàn)。54.A 考察名詞及篇章理解。Trust 信任。通讀全文會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)文中多次提到Mrs. Neidl對作者的信任，并在第三段明確使用了trust這個(gè)詞，因此推斷出答案。Patience 耐心，curiosity好奇心，interest興趣，文中均無體現(xiàn)。55.C考察

26、形容詞及篇章理解?！八龑ξ业男湃渭?lì)我完成以前認(rèn)為不可能的事情”， “never imagined possible” 等于 “imagined impossible.” 認(rèn)為不可能的，貼合文意。Accessible 容易取得的 enjoyable 有趣的 favorable 有利的贊同的 均不合文意。Passage 3(10湖南)Parents are busy people.
