解析【文章大意】作者是一位17歲的中學(xué)生, 利用課余時間打工。一天, 在身心疲憊的時候, 一位顧客的一句話使作者對自己的前途重燃希望。那句話是: You are going places(你前途無量)。
【小題1】選D。詞匯復(fù)現(xiàn)題。由下文中的from being down可以得到暗示。放學(xué)后還得去上班作者心里感到很不高興。后面的to make matters worse(使情況更為糟糕的是)說明此處填貶義詞。feeling down意為“悶悶不樂”。
【小題2】選A。習(xí)語搭配題。作為服務(wù)員, 我要與投訴的顧客打交道, 處理他們提出的問題。此處的deal with意為“與……打交道”。
【小題3】選B。詞語辨析題。seat為及物動詞, “坐下”應(yīng)說be seated, 而A項sit為不及物動詞, 不能用于被動語態(tài)中。
【小題4】選D。詞語辨析題。annoy表示“使生氣”。因為作者前面提到了顧客的種種抱怨, 因此只能導(dǎo)致雇員的煩惱、生氣。句意: 諸如此類的小事容易造成我們雇員的煩惱。故選D。
【小題5】選A。邏輯推理題。此處的us和后面的we指“飯店里的員工”, 故A項正確。此處的us與employees為同位語關(guān)系。employer雇主, 東家。
【小題6】選C。邏輯推理題。前面的by the windows和后面的near where都說明此處填的是“地方(spot)”, the very spot強調(diào)“就是那個地方”。
【小題7】選A。邏輯推理題。dish盤子; room房間; clothes衣服; chair椅子。服務(wù)員在客人走后, 要將吃剩的菜端走, 然后收拾桌子, 供后來的人就餐。所以, 此處要選A項。
【小題8】選C。背景常識題。在飯店中, 進進出出的是顧客, 在房子中來回穿梭忙碌的是服務(wù)員, 故C項正確。
【小題9】選C。句式結(jié)構(gòu)題。雖然餐館處于一片忙亂的狀態(tài), 但是這三位女士在專心地看著我。該空前的crazy給該空提出了暗示。故選C。
【小題10】選B。句式結(jié)構(gòu)題。后面的to make sure every table was clean and ready for the next customers表示目的, 故此處指我怎么做才能達到此目的。
【小題11】選A。邏輯推理題。根據(jù)后面的took their plates back to the kitchen可知她們已經(jīng)吃完了。且下文中有they were leaving暗示。
【小題12】選B。邏輯推理題。她們在臨走前, 跟我聊了一會兒, 問我有關(guān)學(xué)校的情況、在學(xué)校學(xué)得怎么樣、在哪個年級及將來的打算。
【小題13】選C。詞語辨析題。句意: 當(dāng)她們離開的時候, 她們走過我身邊……根據(jù)句意可排除A、D選項; while引導(dǎo)時間狀語從句時, 從句中的謂語動詞是延續(xù)性動詞。此處as表示“當(dāng)……時候”。
【小題14】選A。詞語辨析題。confident自信的; loud大聲的; low低的; pleasant令人愉快的。句意: ……她們從我身邊走過時, 有一個人用自信而溫和的聲音說。由下文的You are going places. (你前途無量。)可以推測說話者的語氣。因為說話人在鼓勵作者, 所以只有A項符合語境。
【小題15】選C。詞匯復(fù)現(xiàn)題。由第一段中給出的故事背景I worked at a local restaurant in town as a cashier and waiter. 可知答案。
【小題16】選B。邏輯推理題。根據(jù)文意可知, 別人給予了作者自信的“勇氣”, 作者才得以重新振作起來。
【小題17】選B。詞語辨析題。三位女士使我重新獲得自信的勇氣, 并使我的情緒不再沮喪。put down記下; 鎮(zhèn)壓; pick up one’s spirit鼓起勇氣; take over接管; point out指明(出)。
【小題18】選B。詞語辨析題。三位女士給了我要繼續(xù)努力的理由。在她們的鼓舞下, 我決心繼續(xù)努力。reason表示某種行為的原因; cause表示某種現(xiàn)象的起因。故正確選項為B。
【小題19】選A。詞匯復(fù)現(xiàn)題。根據(jù)最后一段中的I’m now a co-anchor of a student-produced television. . . 可知。
【小題20】選C。邏輯推理題。作者現(xiàn)在是聯(lián)合主持人(co-anchor), 所以肯定是電視節(jié)目(show)的聯(lián)合主持人。

I would like to suggest that for sixty to ninety minutes each evening all television broadcasting in the United States be forbidden by law. Let us take a , reasonable look at what the results might be if such a（an） were accepted.
Families might use the time for a real family hour. Without the distraction（分散注意力） of TV, they might together after dinner and actually talk to one another. It is well known that many of our ----everything in fact, from the generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of illness ----are caused at least in part by to communicate. By using the quiet family hour to our problems, we might get to know each other better, and to like each other better. On evenings when such talk is , families could discover more active pastimes(娛樂). Freed from TV and forced to find their own activities, they might take a together to watch the sunset they might take a walk together.
free time and no TV, children and adults might discover reading. There is more entertainment in than in a TV program. report that the generation growing up with television can hardly write an English sentence, at the college level. is often learned from reading. A more literate new generation could be a product of the quiet hour. A different form of reading might also be done it was in the past: reading aloud. The quiet hour could become the story hour. When the ends, the TV networks might be forced to with better shows in order to get us back from our newly- discovered activities.
At first glance, this idea seems radical(激進的). will we spend the time then? The fact is: it has been only twenty-five years since television came to control American free time. Those of us thirty-five and older can childhoods without television. It wasn't that difficult.

But at home, a story is told. Later, in the , as I cooked our meal, my daughter crept up to me, very still. When I turned, I nearly her down. “Get out of the way!” I with a frown(皺眉). She left, her little heart broken.
That night, as I awake in bed, God’s quiet spoke to me and said, “While
with a stranger, you are and polite, but with those you love, you are quick and excited… Go look right now on the kitchen floor, you will find some there by the door. Those are the flowers she brought for you. She picked them herself- pink, yellow, and blue. She stood there quietly, not to your surprise, and you never saw the tears in her eyes.”
By this time, I felt sad and small and now my own tears had begun to fall. I quietly went and knelt by her bed,“Wake up, sweetheart, wake up,” I said,“Are these the flowers you picked for me? She smiled, “I found them, out by the tree. I wrapped them in a napkin, just for you. I knew you would like them. the blue.” I said,” I am so sorry that I missed them today… And I shouldn’t have fussed at you that way.”
And she whispered, “Mommy, that is okay… I still love you .” I hugged her and said, “ I love you too… And I love my flowers, especially the blue.”
Are you that: If you die tomorrow, the that you are working for could easily replace you in a matter of days. But the family you leave will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we ourselves more to our work than into our families- an unwise indeed.

My brother and I were in Orlando Florida to witness our first Space Shuttle Launch. The Discovery was to soar at 10:14 AM on a blue sky September day. I’d seen it so many times on television, now I was only minutes away from seeing it launch. And it’s the final demonstration of the of success: Success Takes Off Like a Rocket.
Witnessing the Take Off:
Standing close to the Space Shuttle home one unforgettable point—the Shuttle is the height of a 15-story building—it 4.5 million pounds—and NASA is trying to lift it 200 miles off the ground. On TV the accomplishments look so much , so much easier.
Crowds of people are standing around with you to watch the Shuttle go. The countdown begins through the small of hundreds of portable radios all tuned to the NASA station. It’s enough to get your heart beating .
When time is up, the side booster rockets are lit up and the eight explosive bolts . The first things you see are large white clouds exploding away. Through the steam, you see the fire power. Then the Space Shuttle begins to inch off the pad and climb its way . Thousands upon millions of pounds of can hardly lift the shuttle at all. But with ever increasing ease, the shuttle picks up and roars into the sky, headed into space attaining a of over 17,000 mph.
It is within the first two minutes to launch the Space Shuttle that the great success lesson is . Fact: 85% of the shuttle’s fuel is consumed within the first 2 minutes just to get the 15-story super structure to its orbital .
And that’s exactly how success : The first steps you take towards launching a successful career are the and will require an enormous consumption of energy—a great big push. However, you persist through the launch period, which can seem almost for quite some time, everything gets easier and easier and your results get bigger and bigger.

On any given day, countless numbers of us get out of bed and _ _ to begin to change a given behavior "today." Whether it be exercising more, drinking less, managing time or some other change in a negative behavior, we start out with high . In a short time, however, a vast majority of people fail and are soon doing it was they thought they shouldn't be doing.
After considerable research, some researchers believe that behavior changes usually do not if they start with the change itself. , they believe that we must a series of “stages” to adequately prepare ourselves for that change. Once you have analyzed all the factors that what you do ,you must decide which behavior-change technique will work best for you.
According to the psychologist Albert Ellis, most problems and related behaviors arise from irrational (不理性的) statements that people make to when events in their lives are different from what they would like them to be. For example, suppose after doing on an exam, you say to yourself, “I can not believe I failed that easy exam. I am so stupid.”By changing this irrational “catastrophic” self-talk into rational, statements about what is really going on, you can increase the that positive behaviors will occur.
Positive self-talk might be as follows: "I really didn't study enough for the exam. I just need to prepare for the next ”.
Such self-talk will help you to recover quickly from and take positive steps to correct the situation. Some other technique like purposefully or stopping negative thoughts and refusing to dwell on (沉湎于) negative images can also spare you wasted energy, time and emotional resources and move on to positive changes.
