“Growth requires discomfort.If you stick with what is comfortable,you’re 　1　 any hope of surprising yourself,of finding greatness,of having the best experiences human life has to 　2　.” 

—Thomas Oppong

Many people agree that the magic starts to 　3　 the instant we step outside of our comfort zones.The second you decide to go 　4　 what is safe,you will have planted a seed 　5　,if watered daily,will bloom into something that you would have 　6　 expected to come to fruition. 

For me,what we should remember is that,by no means,can 　7　 and comfort coexist. 

Five years ago,I decided to move overseas.All throughout high school,I wanted to live in a Latin American 　8　 and become fluent in Spanish through 　9　 cultural immersion(沉浸).Obviously the chances of this happening in the US were 　10　.So,halfway through my undergraduate,I switched over to the online version of my degree and bought a one-way ticket to Argentina,　11　 I finished the last two years of my degree. 

I currently still live here,and I can personally say that 　12　 what I wanted years ago and taking the necessary steps to make it a 　13　 was one of the most important things I could have done for myself.Using my second language and learning to live life 　14　 from the way in the US has 　15　 an extremely enriching (丰富的) experience.

Ⅴ.语法填空

I have even wondered if money buys happiness.It seems that money will allow me to buy the things 1.make me happy.But one day I sat down and made a list of the things I wanted 2.(do) in my life,I realized I’d never put much thought into it.I’d written down these things—like taking a photo on the mountain and staying at a hotel in Dubai,but I didn’t really plan to do it,3. (simple) because I didn’t have the time.

My life consisted 4. heading to the office,running on the road,working some more...It didn’t matter if my salary doubled;the life would stay 5.same.Sure I’d probably drive a 6. (nice) car,move into a bigger place,and have a bigger TV than my friends,but those weren’t helping me realize any of my goals.Six months after 7. (create) that list,my belief has changed.I’d keep working on my list,for 8. (experience) were much more important than any of the material items.It’s not hard to create opportunity for 9. (you).All it 10. (take) is a little creative thinking.

答案与解析

【语篇解读】本文是记叙文。作者通过自己的故事说明了这样一个道理:经历比物质的东西更重要。

1.that/which　考查定语从句。“1.make me happy”是限定性定语从句,修饰先行词the things,关系词在从句中作主语,指物,应使用关系代词that/which引导。故填that/which。

2.to do　考查固定用法。want to do sth.“想要做某事”是固定用法。故填to do。

3.simply　考查副词。位于句首,修饰整个句子,用副词。故填simply。

4.of　考查固定短语。consist of“由……组成”是固定短语。故填of。

5.the　考查固定短语。the same“同样地”是固定短语。故填the。

6.nicer　考查比较级。由“move into a bigger place,and have a bigger TV than my friends”可知,这里应该用比较级。故填nicer。

7.creating　考查非谓语动词。介词after之后,应用动词-ing形式作宾语。故填creating。

8.experiences　考查名词单复数。由were判断出来主语是复数。故填experiences。

9.yourself　考查反身代词。句意:为你自己创造机会并不困难。表示“你自己”,故填yourself。

10.takes　考查主谓一致。此处描述的是客观事实,应用一般现在时,主语是第三人称单数,谓语动词也要使用单数形式。故填takes。

Ⅵ.七选五

When everything goes wrong,always look at what you have,instead of what you have lost.Because it’s not what the world takes away from you that counts;it’s what you do with what you have left.　1　 

Pain is part of growing.

Sometimes life closes doors because it’s time to move forward.　2　When times are tough,remind yourself that no pain comes without a purpose.Remember that there are two kinds of pain:pain that hurts and pain that changes you.When you roll with life,instead of resisting it,both kinds help you grow. 

　3　 

Every time you get hurt,you heal.After darkness there is always light—you are reminded of this every morning,but still you often forget,and instead choose to believe that the night will last forever.It won’t.Nothing lasts forever.

Complaining changes nothing.

　4　It’s always better to attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed.It’s not over if you’ve lost;it’s over when you do nothing but complain about it.If you believe in something,keep trying.Don’t let the shadows of the past darken the doorstep of your future. 

The best thing you can do is to keep going.

Don’t be afraid to get back up—to try again,to love again,to live again,and to dream again.Don’t let a hard lesson harden your heart.Life’s best lessons are often learned at the worst times and from the worst mistakes.There will be times when it seems like everything that could possibly go wrong is going wrong.　5　 

A.Everything in life is temporary.

B.And even if you fall short,keep going.

C.Your scars are symbols of your strength.

D.Those who complain the most,accomplish the least.

E.Here are a few tips to inspire you when you need it most.

F.That’s a good thing because we often won’t move unless life forces us to.

G.When you feel like quitting,remember that sometimes things can be right eventually.

答案与解析

【语篇解读】本文是说明文。当一切都错了的时候,要看看你拥有什么,而不是你失去了什么。文章介绍了一些能够激励我们勇敢面对挫折和失败的建议。

1.E　根据下文小段主旨“Pain is part of growing;Complaining changes nothing;The best thing you can do is to keep going”可知,文章接下来会给读者一些建议。由此可知,E项符合文意。

2.F　根据上文“Sometimes life closes doors because it’s time to move forward.”可知,痛苦可能是让我们前进的好事。由此可知,F项符合文意。

3.A　根据下文“After darkness there is always light—you are reminded of this every morning,but still you often forget,and instead choose to believe that the night will last forever.It won’t.Nothing lasts forever.”可知,生活中没有什么是永恒不变的。由此可知,A项适合作本段主旨。

4.D　根据本段主旨“Complaining changes nothing”及下文“It’s not over if you’ve lost;it’s over when you do nothing but complain about it.”可知,抱怨改变不了什么,只知道抱怨,不去尝试的话,什么也收获不了。由此可知,D项符合文意。

5.B　根据本段主旨“The best thing you can do is to keep going”及下文“Don’t be afraid to get back up—to try again,to love again,to live again,and to dream again.Don’t let a hard lesson harden your heart.”可知,你能做的最好的事情就是坚持下去,不要因为失败就停止前进。由此可知,B项符合文意。
