【解析】

本文講述了作者通過父親教授他釣魚,教他要像魚一樣思考,學(xué)會釣魚的道理,告訴大家從事商業(yè)銷售時,也要從消費者角度去思考。

1句意:我的父親能夠抓到很多魚,而我什么也沒抓到。

everything每一件事;anything任何事;nothing沒什么東西;something一些事。while在此處為從屬連詞,意為然而,表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,即父親抓到很多魚,而我什么也沒抓到。故選C

2句意:我經(jīng)常會非常生氣,不斷的問他為什么。

kept不斷;保持;stopped停止;forgot忘記;enjoyed享受。根據(jù)“He always answered…”可知作者不斷的問父親為什么。故選A。

3句意:兒子,如果你想要抓到一條魚,你不得不像魚一樣思考。

swim游泳;act行動;live活著;think思考。根據(jù)“‘But I am not a fish, ’I said, ‘a(chǎn)nd I don't know what fish like. ’”以及“…that is to think more like…”可知作者認(rèn)為自己不是魚,不知道魚什么樣,以及下文的思考更像……”可推測出作者的爸爸希望他像魚一樣思考。故選D。

4句意:隨著我長大一點,我開始明白我父親意味著什么。

needed需要;meant意味著;planned計劃;failed失敗。根據(jù)“‘But I am not a fish, ’I said, ‘a(chǎn)nd I don't know what fish like. ’”可知作者最開始并不知道父親的意思,之后長大明白了。B選項符合句意。故選B

5句意:因此我讀了一些關(guān)于魚的書,我甚至參加了一個當(dāng)?shù)蒯烎~俱樂部,開始每個月參加聚會,知道了更多關(guān)于釣魚的事。

Reading讀書;Fishing釣魚;Swimming游泳;Singing唱歌。根據(jù)“I learned that fish are cold-blooded(冷血的) animals…”可知我想知道關(guān)于釣魚方面的知識,因此去的應(yīng)該是釣魚俱樂部。故選B

6句意:我學(xué)習(xí)到魚是冷血動物,水的溫度對他們來說非常重要。

colour顏色;quality質(zhì)量;temperature溫度;body身體。根據(jù)“…fish are cold-blooded(冷血的) animals…”可知魚是冷血動物,因此可推測水的溫度對魚非常重要。故選C。

7句意:那就是為什么魚更喜歡待在淺水,而不是深水,因為淺水更暖和。

deep深的;clear清澈的;dirty臟的;fresh新鮮的。than指比較級標(biāo)志,前后對比,可知此處是與shallow water相對的深水。故選A。

8句意:此外,陽光直射的水通常比陰面的水更暖和。

Moreover此外;However然而;Instead反而;Otherwise否則。空前后句子為并列關(guān)系,并且后一句是對上一句的補(bǔ)充,因此用并列連詞moreover連接。故選A。

9句意:我對魚了解的越多,我就會找到,并抓住他們。

saving拯救;catching抓;feeding喂養(yǎng);cooking烹飪。根據(jù)“Son, if you want to catch a fish…”可知我之所以學(xué)習(xí)魚的習(xí)性主要是為了能抓到魚。故選B

10句意:……因為我有一個秘密——更好的像消費者那樣思考。

workers工人;makers制造者;sellers賣家;buyers買家;消費者。根據(jù)“It is not an easy job to sell things to others, but I do it well…”可知我要把東西賣給消費者;根據(jù)“I have learned this lesson from fishing.”可知生意場上跟釣魚是一個道理的,我們要多去了解魚和消費者,更了解它們,我們才能抓到它們。故選D

【題目】 Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. These days, shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.

Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter and more watchful than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists think that some shyness is genetic.

Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had older brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers and sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.

You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure (失敗). In Japan, when people do not succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame (責(zé)備) themselves for their failure. In Israel, the opposite is true. Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teachers, friends, or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk (風(fēng)險) taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.

For shy people, it can be difcult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation. And don't forget — if you are shy, you are not the only one.

1What can you learn from the passage?

A.Most little babies are born shy and quiet.

B.If you are shy now, you will be shy forever.

C.Most Israeli people are shy of expressing opinions.

D.Many shy children have older brothers and sisters.

2What can cause shyness according to the passage?

A.Genetics, grow-ups and birthplace.B.Family size, grow-ups and failure.

C.Genetics, family size and birthplace.D.Genetics, family size and failure.

3What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?

A.To encourage people to study shyness more.B.To introduce the reasons why people are shy.

C.To explain why scientists study shyness.D.To show why shyness makes people fail.
