【題目】In six months, I will be 50 but I already know what I’ll regret. This is the answer. “if anything had been different, I wouldn’t be who I am today.” Being like what I am today is so great that I’d never want to change it. But…【1】

KIDS. I wish I had spent more time with my kids. 【2】 But I worked really hard and, I admit, I probably avoided them when they were really young and difficult to wake up and get ready for school when they were younger.

MONEY. I wish for 15 years or so I wasn’t so focused on money.

CREATIVITY. I began my career in my 20s doing things that were really creative that I loved. I was trying to write a novel. I was trying to do a TV show. I was always around people I loved so much. And I spent time with them because I loved them and not because I wanted anything else. I wish I had stuck with that. Now, in my 40s, I’m trying to catch up. 【3】

HUMILITY. When I first made some money, I became a bit too proud. I started investing in all of these horrible companies and having horrible friends. 【4】 If I were humble and just went back to what I loved, I bet I’d be happier.

DISAGREEMENT. 【5】 I still have a hard time with that. I wish when someone does something that I don’t like or agree with I would say “no” a bit more often. I’ve gotten into a lot of bad situations because I didn’t say “no”. Here are two cases where I should have said “no” more often: when someone treats me badly and when I don’t want to do something but I feel bad about hurting someone.

Anyway, if I had a time machine, would I go back in time? I’m not sure. It’s OK to feel regretful some times.

【答案】

【1】F

【2】C

【3】A

【4】D

【5】B

【解析】本文作者為自己不能對人們說“no”而后悔。作者認(rèn)為：不管怎樣，如果我有時(shí)間機(jī)器，我能回到過去嗎？我不確定。有時(shí)感到后悔是可以的。

【1】上文提到““如果有什么不同的話，我就不會是今天的我。”“像今天這樣我是如此的偉大，以至于我永遠(yuǎn)都不想改變它。”但是---，”上文中的but表示轉(zhuǎn)折，承接上文內(nèi)容，F項(xiàng)I could have done something differently in the past.“在過去，我本可以做一些不同的事情。”切題。該項(xiàng)中的虛擬語氣could have done與上文中的if引導(dǎo)的虛擬語氣相吻合；該項(xiàng)中的differently與上文中的different屬于同根詞。

做七選五時(shí)，定位選項(xiàng)，明確各備選選項(xiàng)的含義，抓住其關(guān)鍵詞語，根據(jù)文章整體結(jié)構(gòu)與具體內(nèi)容，將選項(xiàng)填入文中，填寫時(shí)尤為注意各選項(xiàng)中出現(xiàn)的句子銜接手段及句中的銜接標(biāo)志詞。在定位選項(xiàng)時(shí)，要特別注意空格上下段的寫作內(nèi)容，以及空格上段尾句和下段首句的結(jié)構(gòu)和意義。本題第1小題，F項(xiàng)I could have done something differently in the past. 中的虛擬語氣could have done與上文中的if引導(dǎo)的虛擬語氣相吻合；該項(xiàng)中的differently與上文中的different屬于同根詞。

【2】上文提到“我希望我能多花點(diǎn)時(shí)間陪我的孩子。”這里是虛擬語氣，與過去的事實(shí)相反，“希望能多陪陪孩子”；再根據(jù)下文提到“但我真地很辛苦地工作，我承認(rèn)，我很可能在他們還很小很難醒來為上學(xué)做準(zhǔn)備的時(shí)候就避開了他們。”此處but表示轉(zhuǎn)折，“自己辛苦地工作，不能多陪孩子”。承接上下文，C項(xiàng)Sure I spend quality time with them now.“當(dāng)然，我現(xiàn)在和他們在一起度過了美好的時(shí)光。”切題。該項(xiàng)中的now和上下文中所說的過去形成對比。

【3】上文提到“現(xiàn)在，在我40多歲的時(shí)候，我正在努力趕上。”承接上文，A項(xiàng)It’s never too late ，of course.“當(dāng)然，永遠(yuǎn)不會太遲。”切題。該項(xiàng)中的never too late與上文中的catch up相吻合。

【4】上文提到“我開始投資所有這些可怕的公司，并有可怕的朋友。”承接上文，D項(xiàng)It’s the double-horrible that finally kills you.“這是一種雙重恐怖，最終導(dǎo)致了你的死亡。”切題。

【5】本段標(biāo)題是“DISAGREEMENT”。下文提到“我還是很難接受。我多么希望當(dāng)有人做了一些我不喜歡或不同意的事情時(shí)，我會說“不”�！�承接下文，B項(xiàng)I couldn’t say “no” to people.“我不能對人們說“不””。切題。

【題目】Happy, angry, amazed—these are some of the emotions we like to express these days when we’re sending a message on our smartphones! That’s why many of us now add little pictures to our texts to brighten up someone’s mobile screen but we’re also using them as a quick way of telling someone how we’re feeling. Yes, emojis (表情符號) have become a popular tool for communication.

The emoji was first invented in Japan in the late 1990s and the word “emoji” comes from the Japanese words for “picture” and “character”. The number of different images has greatly increased since then and now we have a picture for nearly every mood or situation.

Why are emojis widely used today? Professor Vyv Evans says, “Increasingly, what we’re finding is that digital communication is replacing face-to-face talk in some ways. One of the reasons why emojis are so interesting is that they really do enable us to express our emotional selves much more effectively.”

Another advantage of emojis is that they are an international language—they don’t use words but tell a message with pictures so they can be easily understood whatever your native language is.

But as linguist (語言學(xué)家) Neil Cohn says, “To many, emojis are an exciting evolution (進(jìn)化) of the way we communicate; but to others, they are linguistic Armageddon.” It does show by using emojis, there is a lot more to our communication than words alone, but does this also mean that the traditional writing will die out one day?

【1】What is implied(暗示) in Paragraph 2?

A. The emoji was first invented in Japan.

B. The word “emoji” only means “picture” and “character”.

C. More and more pictures are used to express our mood today.

D. The number of emoji images will increase rapidly in the future.

【2】Why do people use emojis so widely?

A. Emojis can never be misunderstood.

B. Emojis are similar to some native languages.

C. Emojis make us communicate more effectively.

D. Emojis can replace face-to-face communication.

【3】What does the phrase “l(fā)inguistic Armageddon” mean?

A. The power of languages.

B. The beauty of languages.

C. The development of languages.

D. The disappearance of languages.

【4】What is the structure of the passage?

A. B.

C. D.

Dear Sam,

How are you? Today I’ve got a wonderful news to tell you. I have offered a scholarship at a university in Australia for your further education. One hundred and twenty student took exams for it, but only a few was chosen and I was one of them. However.my parents are not happily about it. They are strong against me going there. They say it is too far away that they will not see me for a whole year and they are afraid I will feel lonely. They can’t imagine a girl so young live alone. They advise me to study at Beijing instead. Then I’ll be able to continue living with them. How can I try to let them know that I have grown up?

Yours,
