Life is filled with challenges. As we get older we 31 realize that those challenges are the very things that 32 us and make us who we are .It is the same with the challenges that come with 32 .
When we are faced with a challenge, we usually have two 34. We can try to beat it off, or we can decide that the thing 35 the challenge isn’t worth the 36 and call it quits. Although there are certainly 37 when calling it quits is the right thing to do, in most 38 all that is needed is 39 and communication.
When we are committed to something, it means that no matter how 40 or how uncomfortable something is, we will always choose to 41 it and work it trough instead of running away from it. Communication is making a 42 for discussion and talking about how you feel as opposed to just saying what the other person did wrong. 43 you can say to a friend, “I got my feelings hurt.” 44 “You hurt my feelings,” you are going to be able to solve the problem much faster.
In dealing with the many challenges that friendship will bring to you, try to see them for 45 they are: small hurdles you need to jump or 46 on your way through life. Nothing is so big that it is 47 to get over, and hurt only 48 to make us stronger. It is all part of growing up, it 49 to everyone, and some day you will 50 all of this and say, “Hard as it was, it made who I am today. And that is a good thing.”

解析試題分析:文章論述了生活總是充滿挑戰(zhàn)及人們面對(duì)挑戰(zhàn)的兩種態(tài)度。當(dāng)我們成長我們逐漸意識(shí)到那些挑戰(zhàn)是塑造我們并且讓我們成為我們自己,對(duì)于友誼來說它同樣是挑戰(zhàn)。
【小題1】因?yàn)榍懊嬗衋s we grow older這一過程,所以要選擇come to realize,表示“逐漸認(rèn)識(shí)到……”。
【小題2】shape在這兒是動(dòng)詞,表示“塑造”。選擇該詞與下文中的make us who we are意思相一致。
【小題3】根據(jù)本文的整體內(nèi)容以及最后一段的第一句判斷,本文的主旨是challenges in friendship。
【小題4】根據(jù)下文中的we can beat it off, or we can decided that…判斷,此處應(yīng)該是講到我們有兩種選擇。
【小題5】詞意辨析題。presenting the challenge是現(xiàn)在分詞短語作定語,修飾the thing,presenting是to show something的意思。
【小題6】上文中講到的第一種選擇是beat it off是表示“擊退”,而第二種是對(duì)于不值得去做的可以call it quits,表示停止去做,即“放棄”。
【小題7】times在這兒表示時(shí)候,相當(dāng)于sometimes。
【小題8】in most cases是固定搭配,意思是在大多數(shù)情況下。
【小題9】根據(jù)下一段的第一句話,可以判斷這兒應(yīng)該填commitment,而且根據(jù)下一段中對(duì)于該詞的解釋,commitment的意思是“承擔(dān)義務(wù)、責(zé)任”。
【小題10】painful與下文中的uncomfortable屬于同一范疇。
【小題11】根據(jù)下文中的instead of running away from it可以推測(cè)這兒應(yīng)該填face,“面對(duì)”的意思。
【小題12】space這兒表示空間。該空之前有一個(gè)不定冠詞“a”,說明該詞是可數(shù)名詞,而room做可數(shù)名詞時(shí)只有“房間”的意思,所以據(jù)此可以排除選項(xiàng)room;而space做可數(shù)名詞時(shí)意思是an area, especially one used for a particular purpose,這兒的purpose就是后面的discussion,所以我們判斷是space。
【小題13】根據(jù)句子上下文邏輯判斷應(yīng)該選擇If。
【小題14】表示選擇,亦即“我的感情受到了傷害”而不是“你傷害了我的感情”。
【小題15】 考查連接詞的用法。在介詞for后引導(dǎo)賓語從句,從句中缺少表語,所以用what。
【小題16】該句是倒裝句,正常語序應(yīng)該是You need to jump or get through on your way through life。
【小題17】根據(jù)上下文可知,該句的意思是沒有什么大不了的事無法逾越。故選C。A沒必要B必要C不可能D可能
【小題18】其他選項(xiàng)均有主觀的成分,但主語是hurt,因此選擇serve,表示作者對(duì)于hurt的樂觀的態(tài)度。
【小題19】根據(jù)上文可知,每個(gè)人在成長過程中都要經(jīng)歷這種情況。故選D。Happen to 發(fā)生。A打開B吸引,上訴C去D發(fā)生
【小題20】該句中的some day是表示將來的某一天。自然要選擇look back to,表示“回憶、回顧”。
考點(diǎn):說理性議論文。

In a spelling contest (競(jìng)賽), an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word. But with her     voice the judges were not sure if she spelled the word with the letter A or E.

As a teenager, I felt I was always letting people down. I was rebellious(叛逆)on the outside,      on the inside I wanted people to     .

I was happy to be home. But then I noticed that Penelope, who was       with us, was wearing my clothes. And my       seemed to like her better than me. I wondered if I would be       if I weren’t there. I told my mom, and she explained that       Penelope was a lovely girl, no one could       me.

She made me realize that even with my      , —and they were many—I was a loved member of the family who couldn’t be replaced.
I became a searcher,       who I was and what made me unique. My       of myself was changing. I wanted a solid base to start from.

On the first day of your Senior High you must meet many new classmates. Do you want to make friends with them? Do you know how to make friends with them? The following article will tell you how to do it.
Making friends is a skill. Like most skills, it improves      practice. If you want to meet people and make friends you must be      to take action. You must first go to places where there are people. You won’t make friends      at home alone. Join a club or group, for talking with those who      the same experience as you is easier, and      them in some activities.
Many people are      when talking to strangers. After all, meeting strangers means facing     , and it’s human nature to      a bit uncomfortable about the unknown.
Most of our fears about dealing with strange people      from doubts about ourselves. We      other people are judging us, thinking us too tall or too short, too this or too that.     , don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept yourself      you are, and try to put the other person at ease. You’ll      feel more comfortable.
Try to act self-confidently      you don’t feel that way      you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk straight, look      at other people and smile. If you see someone you’d like to     , say something. Don’t wait for the other people to      a conversation.
Just meeting someone      doesn’t mean that you will make friends with that person. Friendship is      on mutual(相互的)liking and “give and take”. It takes time and effort to develop. And there are things that keep a new friendship from growing.

There are going to be moments in life when you must make very important decisions. You will find many people      to offer you advice if you ask for it (and even if you don’t), but always remember that the life you     is yours and nobody else’s. It’s important to decide for yourself what’s important to you and what you want before you      others. Because while there will be times      outside advice proves wise, there will be at least as many times when it proves completely     . The only way to really evaluate other folks’ advice is to first learn everything that you can about whatever challenge you are     . Once you’ve done that, in most cases you should be able to make a wise decision      anyway.
You were      with the ability to decide what is and what isn’t in your best interest. Most of the time, you will make the right decision and      the appropriate action, and in thinking for yourself, you will become far more successful than if you had gone against your own     .
Early on in my investment career, I made the mistake of      a few important business decisions on colleagues’ opinions instead of conducting the      necessary to make a wise decision. It wasn’t due to      on my part; no one could ever accuse me of that. But, being      to Wall Street, I intended to suppose that my more senior      knew more than I did, and so I      too much significance to their opinions.
You know what happened? Each of those investments ended in     . Eventually I stopped allowing myself to be influenced by      and began doing the work myself and making my own decisions. It took me until I was almost 30 years old to      this—it’s never too late for a person to change his approach both to      and to life.
