One day, an expert in time-management was speaking to a group of business students. To make the point , he used an illustration.
As he stood in front of the group, he said, “Okay, time for a quiz.” He then pulled out a wide-mouth jar and set it on the table. Then he    2   placed about a dozen fist-sized rocks, one by one, into the jar.
When the jar was filled to the    3   and no more rocks would fit inside, he asked, “Is this jar    4 ?” Everyone in the class said, “Yes.”
“Really?” Then he    5  under the table and pulled out a bucket of gravel(沙礫,石子),dumped some in and   6  the jar, causing pieces of gravel to work themselves down into the space    7  the big rocks. Then he asked the group the same question. “Probably not.” One of them answered. “Good!” he replied.
He reached under the table and    8   a bucket of sand. He started dumping the sand in the jar and it went into all the    9   left between the rocks and the gravel.    10   he asked the question. “No!” the class shouted. “Good!” Then he grabbed a can of water and began to pour it in    11   the jar was filled to the brim.
Then the expert in time-management looked at the class and asked, “What is the    12  of this illustration?” It is such a seemingly easy question that one   13   student raised his hand and said, “It is, however full your schedule is, if you try really hard you can always   14   some more things in it.”
“No,” the speaker replied, “The truth it teaches us is that you will    15   get them in at all if you don’t put the big rocks in first.    16   the big rocks in your life are, do things that you love and    17  for yourself. In your schedule if you value the little stuff then you’ll fill your life with    18   things and you will never have the real quality time you need to spend on the big, important stuff. So, tonight, or in the morning, when you are   19   on this short story, ask yourself what are the ‘big rocks’ in your life? Then put those in your    20   first.”

解析【小題1】To make the point clearer是“使觀點(diǎn)更明確”C項(xiàng)符合。
【小題2】副詞詞義辨析:carefully仔細(xì)地 firmly堅(jiān)定地actively 積極地unwillingly不情愿地,結(jié)合后面的one by one可以判斷他是小心地把幾個(gè)拳頭大小的石頭放在壇子里。選A。
【小題3】從后文:no more rocks would fit inside,說明已經(jīng)到了頂部,再也裝不進(jìn)了。所以D正確。
【小題4】和上一題一樣,壇子裝到頂部了,那就是滿了。填A(yù)。
【小題5】這題是詞義辨析:send派、送reach到達(dá)、伸手manage管理feel感覺,再結(jié)合下文pulled out a bucket of gravel,說明是把伸到桌子下面。選B。
【小題6】從后面的句子:causing pieces of gravel to work themselves down into the… 使沙子漏下去,說明是用shake,“搖晃”,選B。
【小題7】考查介詞的用法:space between the rocks“巖石間的空間”。選D。
【小題8】詞組辨析:put out“撲滅” come out“出版,發(fā)行”bring out“產(chǎn)生,拿出”set out “出發(fā)”,從前面的pulled out a bucket of gravel說明是拿出,選C。
【小題9】從上面的down into the space看出這里填space,是巖石間的空隙。選A。
【小題10】文章第三段提到:he asked, “Is this jar    4 ? 第四段說道:Then he asked the group the same question. 所以這里是Once more he asked the question. 他再次問了那個(gè)問題。選D。
【小題11】句意是:他朝壇子里注水直到水滿到邊緣。填B。
【小題12】詞義辨析:A.meaning意義,B. opinion (人的)觀點(diǎn)C. point要點(diǎn),重點(diǎn)D. comment評論,句意是:這個(gè)演示的重點(diǎn)是什么?C
【小題13】形容詞詞義辨析:calm冷靜的awkward窘迫的nervous緊張的eager 急切的。前文說的是:It is such a seemingly easy question,說明是“迫切的學(xué)生”。
【小題14】fit是“安裝,放入”句意是:無論你的日程安排有多滿,只要你努力,就能在放入更多的東西。所以選B。
【小題15】句意是:如果你不先放進(jìn)大的石頭,你永遠(yuǎn)不會把它們都放進(jìn)去。選A。
【小題16】whatever="no" matter what“無論什么”,句意是:無論你生活中的大石頭是什么,做你喜歡做的事。選C。
【小題17】time這里做動(dòng)詞用,“安排時(shí)間”,句意是:做你喜歡的事,為自己安排時(shí)間。所以選D。
【小題18】從前面的:if you value the little stuff 如果你看中小事,說明后面也是填little,意思是:用小事填滿你的生活。填B。
【小題19】reflect“反思”,當(dāng)你反思這個(gè)小故事,A
【小題20】從前面的“a wide-mouth jar”可知填C,句意是:把這些放進(jìn)你的壇子里。

I told him that I knew several   47  like that, including my brother, who was doctor in California. He    48  that maybe there were more private courts in the country, than he   49  but he did not know of any others. Then he asked me   50  my brother lived in California. When I said Sacramento, he said that was a coincidence 51 his Chicago friend spent the summer in Sacramento last year and he lived next door to a   52 who had a tennis court in his backyard. I  said I felt that really was a coincidence because my next-door neighbour had gone to Sacramento last summer and had   53  the house next to my brother’s house. For a moment, we stared at each other, but we did not say anything.
“Would your friend’s name happen to be Roland Kirkwood?” I asked finally. He   54  and said, “Yes. Would your brother’s name happen to be Dr Rey Hunter?” It was my  55   to laugh. “Yes,” I replied.

"Hey, Tahlia! How's the model?"
I had just taken a bite of my hot dog __21__ I heard a familiar voice yelling at me from across the crowded school yard. I saw a group of popular girls who were all __22__.
"What kind of __23_ are you going to do? An ad for a Frankenstein movie?" More laughter. My stomach twisted into a tight knot. How could they humiliate (羞辱) me like this, __24__ the entire school? As I walked into the cafeteria, I __25__ the dark scars on my right hand.
At 9 months old, I knocked over a tea pot and dumped boiling water allover my hands and stomach. My parents __26__ me to the hospital, but I had to have skin graft (移植) operation. I was in so much pain! But what __27__ me most were the cruel things people said about how I looked, __28__ that day at lunch.
The girls were being supermean to me because they'd heard I was considering doing some modeling. A close friend had suggested that I shouldn't let my scars limit me and that I might __29__ a good model.
But after that __30__ at school, I was sure I'd made a huge mistake. Upon arriving home, I covered the mirror with a blanket, fell on my bed and sobbed.
The next day, I __31__ myself to go to school. At lunch my best friend Jesse tried to encourage me: "You can't __32_ forever, Tahlia. So what if you have a few scars? Just go outside and show them that you're just as good as they are." Although I knew he was right, I couldn’t __33__ standing up for myself like that.
However, that night as I sat on the bed, my friend's words replayed in my mind. I'm __34__ hiding from myself, I thought. How stupid! Slowly, I stood up, walked over to the __35__, and tossed the blanket aside. There, in the mirror I saw a slim, dark-haired, blue-eyed girl, looking just fine, __36__ with a few scars.
The next day I wore a comfortable T-shirt to school. What's more, I had lunch outside the cafeteria, __37__ beside those mean girls. They were shocked that I should dare to walk into their territory. I felt __38_ too—free and happy.
Sometimes people still look at me strangely. They __39_ and stare, but I don't let it get to me. I have applied to several modeling companies, and at least one company is considering me for jobs. Maybe I'll never __40_ posing on the runway, but I do know one thing: I'm done.
