分析 本文是一篇記敘文,主要圍繞著母親的教導(dǎo)"Everything happens for the best.一切都會好的"而展開故事,這句話對作者找工作起了一定的作用.文章旨在告訴我們不要畏懼困難和挫折!要堅持下去!一切都會為了更美好的未來而發(fā)生的.

解答 31.A 考查連詞辨析  結(jié)合最后一段的 If you carry on,one day something good will happen 可知,如果(if)你能夠堅持下去,總有一天好事會發(fā)生.while 意為"當(dāng)…的時候",unless 意為"除非",although 意為"即使",均不符合文意.故正確答案為A.
32.C 考查動詞辨析  結(jié)合句中的 work my way up to a sports announcer 可知,在畢業(yè)以后"我"很努力地想成為一名體育解說員,由此可知"我"已經(jīng)下定決心(decide)在電臺找工作了.demand 意為"需要",ask 意為"要求",hope 意為"希望",但是與 decide 相比意愿不是那么強(qiáng)烈,均不符合文意.故正確答案為C.
33.B   考查動詞辨析 A項,hit on"偶然發(fā)現(xiàn)";B項,knock on"敲擊(門、窗等)";C項,beat on"對打";D項,attack on"攻擊".結(jié)合上下文可知,"我"敲了(knock on)芝加哥每家電臺的門,但是都被拒絕了.故正確答案為B.
34.C 考查形容詞辨析  結(jié)合句中的 advised me to try in small stations 可知,一位好心的女士建議"我"應(yīng)該去小一點的電臺試一試,因為大的(big)電臺不會雇用沒有經(jīng)驗的人.old 意為"老的",new 意為"新的",small 意為"小的",均不符合文意.故正確答案為C.
35.D  考查情態(tài)動詞辨析 結(jié)合上文的 stations wouldn't hire an inexperienced person 可知,她建議"我"去小的電臺試一試,他們大概會(would)給"我"一個機(jī)會.shall 意為"將要",should 意為"應(yīng)該",must 意為"必須",均不符合文意.故正確答案為D.
36.B  考查動詞辨析 結(jié)合上文可知,"我"聽從了那位女士的建議,來到了 Dixon,Illinois 的一家當(dāng)?shù)氐恼枰╳anted)人的地方面試.hired 意為"已經(jīng)雇用了的",look 意為"看",find 意為"發(fā)現(xiàn)",均不符合文意.故正確答案為B.
37.A  考查連詞辨析 分析句子成分可知,該句為表語從句,缺少成分作地點狀語,用 where 引導(dǎo).what 意為"什么",不能做地點狀語.in which 意為"在哪兒",on which 意為"在…上",不引導(dǎo)表語從句.故正確答案為A.
38.B  考查動詞辨析 結(jié)合下文可知,"我"并沒有得到這份工作,所以只能是聽起來(sound)這份工作挺適合"我"的,而事實可能不一定是這樣.sound 此處表示一種猜測.do 意為"做",look 意為"看",keep 意為"持有",均不符合文意.故正確答案為B.
39.C  考查連詞辨析 結(jié)合上文可知,"我"以為這份工作很適合"我",但是(but)結(jié)果并不是那樣的.此處表轉(zhuǎn)折.a(chǎn)nd 意為"和",so 意為"因此",均不符合文意.however 意為"然而",但是后面應(yīng)用逗號隔開.故正確答案為C.
40.D  考查代詞辨析 結(jié)合第一段中的 Everything happens for the best 可知,一切(everything)都會變好的.a(chǎn)nything 意為"任何事",nothing 意為"沒什么",something 意為"某事",均不符合文意.故正確答案為D.
41.C  考查動詞辨析 結(jié)合文意可知,為了"我"能找到工作,爸爸把他的車提供(offer)給了"我".offer sb sth 為固定用法,意為"提供某人某物".sell 意為"賣",get 意為"得到",均不符合文意.provide 意為"提供",但用法通常為 provide sb with sth.故正確答案為C.
42.D  考查副詞辨析 結(jié)合下文的 I was very disappointed 可知,他們已經(jīng)(already)雇用了體育播音員,所以"我"感到很失望.a(chǎn)lmost 意為"幾乎",still 意為"仍然",even 意為"甚至",均不符合文意.故正確答案為D.
43.A  考查名詞辨析 結(jié)合上文的 The program director told me 可知,當(dāng)"我"打算走的時候,主管(director)叫住了"我".manager 意為"經(jīng)理",reporter 意為"記者",athlete 意為"運(yùn)動員",均不符合文意.故正確答案為A.
44.D  考查介詞辨析 結(jié)合下文可知,他讓"我"站到麥克風(fēng)前(before),請"我"解說一場想象中的比賽.over 意為"在…之上",under 意為"在…之下",均不符合文意.behind 意為"在…之后",通常只有站在麥克風(fēng)前,面對著它才能正常使用,而不是站在它后面.故正確答案為D.
45.A 考查名詞辨析  結(jié)合文意可知,在"我"回家的路(way)上,"我"想到了媽媽的話.on one's way home 為固定搭配,意為"在某人回家的路上".path 意為"道路",road 意為"公路",street 意為"街道",均無此搭配.故正確答案為A.

點評 完型填空,解題時要抓住文章的脈絡(luò),一定要讀懂全文,弄清文章要表達(dá)的思想,注意前后段落之間的關(guān)系.答題中,一定要認(rèn)真分析,注意選項與上下文的關(guān)系,與前后單詞的關(guān)系.對于一時沒有太大的把握的題可以放到最后再來完成,因為有時答案可以從下文內(nèi)容體現(xiàn)出來.答完后再通讀一篇文章,看看所選選項能不能是語句通順,語意連貫.

14.Most of us spend our lives seeking the natural world.We go fishing,sit in the garden,have a picnic,live in the suburbs or go to the seaside.The most popular leisure activity in Britain is going for a walk.When joggers jog,they don't run in the streets.Every one of them tend to go to the park or the river.
But despite this,our children are growing up nature deprived(剝奪).I spent my boyhood climbing trees.These days,children are robbed of these ancient freedoms,due to problems like crime,traffic,the loss of the open spaces and strange new ideas about what is best for children,that is to say,things that can be bought,rather than things that can be found.
The truth is to be found elsewhere.A study in the US:families had moved to better housing and the children were assessed for ADHD-attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(多動癥).Those whose accommodation had more natural views showed an improvement of 19%; those who had the same improvement in material surroundings but no nice view improved just 4%.
ADHD is one of the great problems of modern childhood.One study after another indicates that contact with nature gives huge benefits to ADHD children.However,we spend money on drugs rather than on green places.
The life of old people is measurably better when they have access to nature.The increasing concern for the growing population of old people is in quality rather than quantity of years.And study after study finds that a garden is the single most important thing in finding that quality.Even problems with crime and aggressive behaviour are reduced when there is contact with the natural world.
We need the wild world.It is essential to our well-being,our health and our happiness.
