D.was參考答案：36、人們出錯(cuò)有言行兩各方面所以從said可知選A。37、從上下文“已經(jīng)破壞了而又想修不好的關(guān)系”是人們非常在意的關(guān)系，選B。38、從上文的damaged可知，此處實(shí)現(xiàn)修復(fù)已破壞的關(guān)系。故選C。39、這是道常識(shí)題，人們?cè)阱e(cuò)誤時(shí)不已承認(rèn)自己錯(cuò)誤，只有在過(guò)后才意識(shí)到自身的錯(cuò)誤，而感到regret。所以選B。40、從上文Lookbackandthink可知此處表述人們出錯(cuò)的平度，所以選B。41、根據(jù)上下文中的judgedroughly和pushedyourself

42

attheexpense(在使某人受損的情況下)ofafriend.可判斷說(shuō)的是有傷于情感的事，故選D。42、根據(jù)所在句之意“為了自己前進(jìn)而傷害朋友”，push…ahead“使……向前、使……前進(jìn)”正合文意，所以選A。43、根據(jù)語(yǔ)境，此處表達(dá)遞進(jìn)意義，所以選Beven。44、根據(jù)上下文和when

43

asmallmistakehasbeenmade,your

44

willstayoutofbalanceuntilthemistakeisacknowledgedandyourregretis

45

.之意可知是心理感覺(jué)、感受不平衡，所以選D。45、從your

44

willstayoutofbalanceuntilthemistakeisacknowledgedandyourregretis

45

.一句可知，只有你承認(rèn)錯(cuò)誤并表達(dá)了自己的regret，才能感到坦然自若，所以非D莫屬。46,、該題目是考查動(dòng)詞辨析題，根據(jù)所在句意此處應(yīng)該是“講述”一事實(shí)。故選B。47、從headache,insomnia(失眠),stomachachesandsoon.可知man患有各種各樣的疾病。所以選C。48、從上下文可知，盡管感覺(jué)有各種各樣的疾病，但doctor找不到體制方面的原因，所以選C。49、從

49

youtellmewhat’sonyourconscience(良心),Ican’thelpyou.一句前后的邏輯關(guān)系，49出應(yīng)該是“除非、如果不”之意，故選B。50、根據(jù)上下文可知是man在其他人不知情的情況下“拿了”而不是accept這筆錢(qián)，感到心理負(fù)重，才病了。所以選C。51、根據(jù)上下文語(yǔ)境可知他弟弟不和他在一起，所以四選項(xiàng)中只能選C才合語(yǔ)義。52、醫(yī)生建議他寫(xiě)信還錢(qián)并向弟弟道歉，只有這樣才能心釋重負(fù)，故選D。53、此處是信中夾寄還錢(qián)，所以只能是C。54、根據(jù)上下文可知，當(dāng)信寄出后，哭是一種心理重負(fù)的釋放，burstintotears是固定搭配，所以選B。55、根據(jù)hesaid,“IthinkI’mallrightnow.”Andhe

55

.一句可知，55處應(yīng)是Andhewasallright的省略。所以選D。21.“Areyougoingtotheaudition(試鏡)?”SomeoneaskedConnie,aswecameoutofballetclass.“Whataudition?”Iasked.“Oh,nothing,”saidConnie.“It’sforTheEdSullivanShow.Youwouldn’tbe___11___.”TheEdSullivanShowwasafamousone-hourshowonCBS.Theyconstantlyneededperformersfortheirnewshows.ThistimetheywerelookingforsixdancerstosupportthestarperformerJimmyDurante.“Whynot?I’dlovetogo!”I___12___.Conniesmiledatmeandsaid,“Idon’tthinkyouare___13___yet,Eva.”Laterthatnight,Icouldn’tfallasleep.It___14___me.WhosaidIshouldn’tgototheaudition?OnlybecauseIwasayoungnovice(新手)?HowwouldIknowifIdidn’ttry?Thenextmorning,I___15___Iwasgoingtotheaudition.Ipackedmydancingshoes,andputonbrightredlipstick.AsIlookedatmy___16___inthemirror,Isawonethingmissing.Iputonasmile.ItookthesubwaytotheEighthAvenueandwalkedtotherehearsalstudio.I___17___andtookmyplacenervously.Connieandfiveofmyotherfriendswerethere.“Whatareyoudoinghere?”oneasked.Isaidsimply,“Well,Ihavenothingtoloseby___18___.”ThelookIgotsaid,“Okay.___19___.”Theauditionbegan.Alltheotherdancershadconfidentbutexpressions.Ihadasmile.____20____Moreandmoredancerswereknockedout.Iwasstilltherewithmyfriends.Thenwewereaskedtodoajetéenl’air____21____:standononeleg,kicktheotheroneupandoutasclosetoasplitaspossible,andthendoaturnintheair.Hopefully,you’dlandonbothfeet.Alltheothercandidatesdidthejetébeautifully.Itwasmyturn.Itookthepreparatorystep,andwiththatnever-endingsmile,Ileapedupintotheair,turnedinmid-airand____22____flatonmyback.Buteventhen,thesmilenever____23____myface.Wheneverythingsettleddownmyfriendswereinstructedtogototheright.WhenIwastoldtogototheleft,theirfacestoldtheyfelt____24____forme.Ipickedupmybelongingsandpreparedtoleavewhenthechoreographercalledouttome,“Whereareyougoing?You’vegotthe____25____ifyouwantit.”DidIwantit?Icertainlydid.IthoughtIhadbeen____26____!Therewerenojetésinthe____27____.ImademyfirstappearanceonnationalTV.Ineverstopped____28____,andIalwayslandedonmyfeet.HadInotbelievedIcoulddoit,andhadInottried,Iwouldhave____29____outonathoroughlyenjoyableexperience.Itprovedonceagainthatasmilewillgetone____30____thanafrowneverwill.11.A.qualified B.interested C.available D.suitable12.A.declared B.complained C.requested D.suggested13.A.stable B.flexible C.ready D.mature14.A.inspired B.bothered C.discouraged D.shocked15.A.admitted B.promised C.confirmed D.decided16.A.costume B.shadow C.reflection D.reaction17.A.calledin B.signedin C.loggedin D.joinedin18.A.consulting B.fighting C.training D.trying19.A.Whoever B.Whatever C.Wherever D.Whenever20.A.delighted B.proud C.impatient D.serious21.A.immediately B.formally C.gradually D.individually22.A.landed B.stayed C.lay D.hung23.A.approached B.changed C.left D.covered24.A.puzzled B.relieved C.nervous D.sorry25.A.job B.gift C.dance D.reward26.A.dismissed B.cheated C.rejected D.ignored27.A.show B.contest C.interview D.play28.A.smiling B.acting C.laughing D.leaping29.A.stood B.taken C.missed D.come30.A.freer B.further C.faster D.fitter參考答案：11.B
