Every man wants his son to be somewhat of a clone，not in features but in footsteps．As he grows you also age，and your ambitions become more unachievable．You begin to realize that your boy，in your footsteps，could probably accomplish what you hoped for．But footsteps can be muddied and they can go off in different directions．
My son Jody has hated school since day one in kindergarten．Science projects waited until the last moment．Book reports weren't written until the final threat．
I've been a newspaperman all my adult life．My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master's degree in English．But Jody？When he entered the tenth grade he became a"vo-tech"student（技校学生）．They're called"motorheads"by the rest of the student body．
When a secretary in my office first called him"motorhead"，I was shocked．"Hey，he's a good kid，"I wanted to say．"And smart，really．"
I learned later that motorheads are，indeed，different．They usually have dirty hands and wear dirty work clothes．And they don't often make school honor rolls（光荣榜）．
But being the parent of a motorhead is itself an experience in education．We who labor in clean shirts in offices don't have the abilities that motorheads have．I began to learn this when I had my car crashed．The cost to repair it was estimated at $800．"Hey，I can fix it，"said Jody．I doubted it，but let him go ahead，for I had nothing to lose．
My son，with other motorheads，fixed the car．They got parts（零件）from a junkyard，non-toasting toaster have been fixed．Neighbours and co-workers trust their car repair to him．
Since that first repair job，a broken air-conditioner，a non-functioning washer and a non-toasting toaster have been fixed．Neighbors and co-workers trust their car repairs to him．
These kids are happiest when doing repairs．They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world．And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes．
I have learned a lot from my motorhead：publishers need printers，engineers need mechanics，and architects need builders．Most important，I have learned that fathers don't need clones in footsteps or anywhere else．
My son may never make the school honor roll．But he made mine．
41. What used to be the author's hope for his son？ ______
A. To avoid becoming his clone．
B. To resemble him in appearance．
C. To develop in a different direction．
D. To reach the author's unachieved goals．
42. What can we learn about the author's children？ ______
A. His daughter does better in school．
B. His daughter has got a master's degree．
C. His son tried hard to finish homework．
D. His son couldn't write his book reports．
43. The author let his son repair the car because he believed that ______ ．
A. His son had the ability to fix it．
B. it would save him much time．
C. it wouldn't cause him any more loss
D. other motorheads would come to help．
44. In the author's eyes，motorheads are ______ ．
A. tidy and hardworking B. cheerful and smart
C. lazy but bright D. relaxed but rude
45. What did the author realize in the end？ ______
A. It is unwise to expect your child to follow your path．
B. It is important for one to make the honor roll．
C. Architects play a more important role than builders．
D. Motorheads have greater ability than office workers．

When John Was growing up.other kids felt sorry for him.His parents always had him weeding the garden，carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers.But when John reached adulthood，he was better off than his childhood playmates.He had more job satisfaction，a better marriage and was healthier.Most of all，he was happier.Far happier.
These are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston.The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not. "Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence （能力） and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society，" said George Vaillant，the psychologist who made the discovery. "And because they felt good about themselves，others felt good about them."
Vaillant's study follow these males in great detail.Interviews were repeated at ages 25，31 and 47.Under Vaillant，the researchers compared the men's mental-health scores with their boyhood-activity scores.Points were awarded for part-time jobs，housework，effort in school，and ability to deal with problems.
The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly .Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people，five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed.The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out.Working-at any age-is important.Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility，independence，confidence and competence-the underpinnings （基础） of emotional health.They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals.The most competent adults are those who know how to do this.Yet work isn't everything，As Tolstoy once said， "One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love，to work for the person one loves and to love one's work."
46. What do we know about John？ ______
A. He enjoyed his career and marriage.
B. He had few childhood playmates.
C. He received little love from his family.
D. He was envied by others in his childhood.
47. Vaillant's words in Paragraph 2 serve as ______ .
A. a description of personal values and social values
B. an analysis of how work was related to competence
C. an example for parents' expectations of their children
D. an explanation why some boys grew into happy men
48. Vaillant's team obtained their findings by ______ .
A. recording the boys' effort in school
B. evaluating the men's mental health
C. comparing different sets of scores
D. measuring the men's problem solving ability
49. What does the underlined word "sharp" probably mean in Paragraph 4？ ______
A. Quick to react. B. Having a thin edge.
C. Clear and definite. D. Sudden and rapid.
50. What can be inferred from the last paragraph？ ______
A. Competent adults know more about love than work.
B. Emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life.
C. Love brings more joy to people than work does.
D. Independence is the key to one's success.

Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has.There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.
We experience this tiredness in two ways：as start-up fatigue（疲惫）and performance fatigue.In the former case,we keep putting off a task because it is either too boring or too difficult.And the longer we delay it,the more tired we feel.
Such start-up fatigue is very real,even if not actually physical,not something in our muscles and bones.The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply：always handle the most difficult job first.
Years ago,I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors.Applying my own rule,I determined to write them in alphabetical order（按字母顺序），never letting myself leave out a tough idea.And I always started the day's work with the difficult task of essay-writing.Experience proved that the rule works.
Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle.Though willing to get started,we cannot seem to do the job right.Its difficulties appear so great that,however hard we work,we fail again and again.In such a situation,I work as hard as I can—then let the unconscious take over.
When planning Encyclopaedia Britannica（《大英百科全书》），I had to create a table of contents based on topics of its articles.Nothing like this had ever been done before,and day after day I kept coming up with solutions,but none of them worked.My fatigue became almost unbearable.
One day,mentally exhausted,I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved.I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself,not with me.Relieved,I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.
An hour later,I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind.In the weeks that followed,the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step.Though I worked as hard as before,I felt no fatigue.Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.
Human beings,I believe,must try to succeed.Success,then,means never feeling tired.
51. People with start-up fatigue are most likely to ______ .
A. delay tasks B. work hard C. seek help D. accept failure
52. What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue？ ______
A. Writing essays in strict order.
B. Building up physical strength.
C. Leaving out the toughest ideas.
D. Dealing with the hardest task first.
53. On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue？ ______
A. Before starting a difficult task.
B. When all the solutions fail.
C. If the job is rather boring.
D. After finding a way out.
54. According to the author,the unconscious mind may help us ______ .
A. ignore mental problems B. get some nice sleep
C. gain complete relief D. find the right solution
55. What could be the best title for the passage？ ______
A. Success Is Built upon Failure
B. How to Handle Performance Fatigue
C. Getting over Fatigue：A Way to Success
D. Fatigue：An Early Sign of Health Problems

【解析】41--45DACBA
本文先讲述了一种社会现象--父母希望孩子成为自己的"克隆"，希望孩子能继续"接力"自己年轻时的任务．随后作者通过记叙自己在校表现并不优异的儿子的帮自己修好了车的事例来表达观点--出版社需要打字员，工程需要技工，建筑行业需要建造者，每个人都有自己的价值，只要用在合适的地方．作者为自己的儿子感到骄傲，虽然他从未上过学校的光荣榜．
考生需在文中着重抓住细节信息．在综合细节的基础上进行判断，在文中找到信息．
1. D 推理判断题．本题需理解作者一开始对儿子的寄望是什么．由第一段的第一句话可以推断出来Every man wants his son to be somewhat of a clone，not in features but in footsteps．（每个人都希望他的儿子成为自己某方面的克隆，不是外表的克隆，而是在"传承"上的克隆．）可见，作者也是其中之一．因此答案为D．
2. A 细节理解题．解答此题的关键词在于the author's children，因此需要在文中找出有关作者孩子的信息．由第三段My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master's degree in English．But Jody？When he entered the tenth grade he became a"vo-tech"student（技校学生）．They're called"motorheads"by the rest of the student body．可以找到，作者的女儿是大学生，正准备攻读英语类的研究生．而儿子却被其他学生叫做"motorhead"．可见，女儿的在校表现比儿子要好．因此答案为A．
3. C 细节理解题．在第五段可以找到答案．I doubted it，but let him go ahead，for I had nothing to lose．可知，我让儿子修车的原因是--我并没有什么损失．因此答案为C．
4. B 深层理解题．本题需要判断作者情感态度．由倒数第二段可以找到信息，These kids are happiest when doing repairs．They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world．And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes．可知，答案为B．
5. A 深层理解题．本题需猜测作者情感态度．由最后一段可知作者想要表达的全文的中心思想．publishers need printers，engineers need mechanics，and architects need builders．Most important，I have learned that fathers don't need clones in footsteps or anywhere else．My son may never make the school honor roll．But he made mine．作者对社会上的普遍观点是持否定态度的--希望自己孩子"继承"自己的志愿是不明智的．因此答案为A．
46~50.【答案】A、D、C、C、B
【解析】（1）A．细节理解题。根据第一段When John was growing up，…Most of all，he was happier.Far happier.当约翰长大后，其他的孩子都为他感到难过。他的父母总是让他在花园里除草，倒垃圾，送报纸．但是当约翰长大后，他比他儿时的玩伴过得更好。他有更多的工作满足感，更好的婚姻，更健康，最重要的是，他更快乐，更幸福。可知约翰喜欢他的事业和婚姻。结合选项，故选A．
（2）D．推理判断题。根据第二段Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society.在家里或社群里获得能力的孩子会感受到自己的社会价值，以及最后一句And because they felt good about themselves，others felt good about them.因为他们对自己的感觉良好/对自己的肯定度高，所以别人也对他们的感觉良好。可知维兰特的话解释了为什么有些男孩会成长为快乐的人。结合选项，故选D．
（3）C．细节理解题。根据第三段Points were awarded for part-time jobs，housework，effort in school，and ability to deal with problems.兼职工作、家务活、在学校的努力程度和处理问题的能力都获得了分数。可知维兰特的研究小组通过比较不同的分数得出了他们的发现。结合选项，故选C．
（4）C．词义猜测题。根据文章第四段内容The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly ．从小做事情和长大后成为什么样的人之间的联系非常明显。故sharp意为"清楚明确的"。A.Quick to react 反应迅速；B.Having a thin edge 边缘薄的；C.Clear and definite 清晰明确的；D.Sudden and rapid 突然而迅速的。故选C．
（5）B．推理判断题。根据最后一段 Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility，independence，confidence and competence-the underpinnings（基础） of emotional health.The most competent adults are those who know how to do this.Yet work isn't everything.As Tolstoy once said， "One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love，to work for the person one loves and to love one's work."儿童活动有助于儿童发展责任感、独立性、信心和能力--情绪健康的基础。最有能力的成年人是那些知道如何去做的人。然而工作并不是万能的．正如托尔斯泰曾经说过的："如果一个人知道如何去工作，如何去爱，为他所爱的人工作，热爱自己的工作，那么他就能在这个世界上过得非常出色。"可知情感健康对美好的成人生活至关重要。结合选项，故选B．
文章讲述了一项历时40年的研究，研究表明，那些曾在男孩时代工作过的男孩比那些没有在男孩时代工作过的男孩享受更快乐和更富有成效的生活，童年时所做的事情与成年后的表现之间有着惊人的联系。总之，任何年龄段的工作都很重要。童年活动都有助于孩子培养责任感、独立性、信心和能力，这是情绪健康的基础。它们也有助于他理解人们必须合作并朝着共同的目标努力。
做这类题材的阅读理解时要求考生对文章先通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案。做题时要在抓住关键句子的基础上进行合理地分析，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据。
51~55.【答案】A、D、B、D、C
【解析】（1）A.细节理解题。根据文章第二段We experience this tiredness in two ways ：as start-up fatigue （疲惫）and performance fatigue.In the former case,we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. （我们以两种方式体验这种疲劳：开始型疲劳和能力型疲劳。在前一种情况下，我们不断推迟一项任务，因为它要么太无聊，要么太难。）由此可知，有开始型疲劳的人们最有可能推迟任务。A.delay tasks 延迟任务；B.work hard 努力工作；C.seek help 寻求帮助；D.accept failure 接受失败。故选A．
（2）D.推理判断题。根据文章第二段，The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply：always handle the most difficult job first.解决方案是显而易见的，但也许不容易应用：总是先处理最困难的工作。可知，为了防止启动疲惫，作者建议先解决最难的任务，结合选项，故选D．
（3）B.细节理解题。根据第五段第二句Its difficulties appear so great that,however hard we work,we fail again and again.In such a situation,I work as hard as I can-then let the unconscious take over （它的困难看起来如此之大，以至于无论我们多么努力工作，我们都会一次又一次地失败。在这种情况下，我尽我所能地努力工作--然后让潜意识接管）由此可推断出，能力型疲劳是无论我们工作的多艰辛，但是我们还是一遍又一遍的失败，因此当所有的解决办法都失败的时候，一个人会感到能力型疲劳。故选B．
（4）D.细节理解题。根据原文倒数第二段"In the weeks that followed,the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step.在接下来的几周里，我潜意识里想到的解决办法每一步都被证明是正确的。"可知根据作者的说法，潜意识可以帮助我们找到正确的解决办法。A.ignore mental problems 忽视心理问题；B.get some nice sleep 好好睡一觉；C.gain complete relief 获得完全缓解；D.find the right solution 找到正确的解决办法。故选D.
（5）C.标题归纳题。本文主要针对两种不同类型的疲劳，作者给出了解释和解决办法并通过自己的例子给出了证明．第一段和第二段是总领全文段落，引出两种不同的疲劳。第三段和第四段是对于"开始性疲劳"给出的定义，解决方法和自身的经历．第五段到第八段是对于"能力型疲劳"给出的定义，解决方案和自身经历。最后一段对文章中心的升华。由此可知，文章是关于克服疲劳，走向成功的文章。A项意为：成功建立于失败之上。B项意为：怎样处理能力型疲劳。C项意为：克服疲劳是走向成功的方法。D项意为：疲劳是健康问题的早期信号。均不符合文意，故选C．
本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者围绕失败、疲倦、成功之间的关系展开论述。重点提出start-up fatigue 和 performance fatigue 两种类型的疲倦问题，并分别以自己的亲身经历提出解决办法。最后指出克服疲倦的关键是获得成功。

Every man wants his son to be somewhat of a clone，not in features but in footsteps．As he grows you also age，and your ambitions become more unachievable．You begin to realize that your boy，in your footsteps，could probably accomplish what you hoped for．But footsteps can be muddied and they can go off in different directions．
My son Jody has hated school since day one in kindergarten．Science projects waited until the last moment．Book reports weren't written until the final threat．
I've been a newspaperman all my adult life．My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master's degree in English．But Jody？When he entered the tenth grade he became a"vo-tech"student（技校学生）．They're called"motorheads"by the rest of the student body．
When a secretary in my office first called him"motorhead"，I was shocked．"Hey，he's a good kid，"I wanted to say．"And smart，really．"
I learned later that motorheads are，indeed，different．They usually have dirty hands and wear dirty work clothes．And they don't often make school honor rolls（光荣榜）．
But being the parent of a motorhead is itself an experience in education．We who labor in clean shirts in offices don't have the abilities that motorheads have．I began to learn this when I had my car crashed．The cost to repair it was estimated at $800．"Hey，I can fix it，"said Jody．I doubted it，but let him go ahead，for I had nothing to lose．
My son，with other motorheads，fixed the car．They got parts（零件）from a junkyard，non-toasting toaster have been fixed．Neighbours and co-workers trust their car repair to him．
Since that first repair job，a broken air-conditioner，a non-functioning washer and a non-toasting toaster have been fixed．Neighbors and co-workers trust their car repairs to him．
These kids are happiest when doing repairs．They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world．And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes．
I have learned a lot from my motorhead：publishers need printers，engineers need mechanics，and architects need builders．Most important，I have learned that fathers don't need clones in footsteps or anywhere else．
My son may never make the school honor roll．But he made mine．
41. What used to be the author's hope for his son？ ______
A. To avoid becoming his clone．
B. To resemble him in appearance．
C. To develop in a different direction．
D. To reach the author's unachieved goals．
42. What can we learn about the author's children？ ______
A. His daughter does better in school．
B. His daughter has got a master's degree．
C. His son tried hard to finish homework．

43. The author let his son repair the car because he believed that ______ ．
A. His son had the ability to fix it．
B. it would save him much time．
C. it wouldn't cause him any more loss
D. other motorheads would come to help．
44. In the author's eyes，motorheads are ______ ．
A. tidy and hardworking B. cheerful and smart
C. lazy but bright D. relaxed but rude
45. What did the author realize in the end？ ______

B. It is important for one to make the honor roll．
C. Architects play a more important role than builders．
D. Motorheads have greater ability than office workers．

When John Was growing up.other kids felt sorry for him.His parents always had him weeding the garden，carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers.But when John reached adulthood，he was better off than his childhood playmates.He had more job satisfaction，a better marriage and was healthier.Most of all，he was happier.Far happier.
These are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston.The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not. "Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence （能力） and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society，" said George Vaillant，the psychologist who made the discovery. "And because they felt good about themselves，others felt good about them."
Vaillant's study follow these males in great detail.Interviews were repeated at ages 25，31 and 47.Under Vaillant，the researchers compared the men's mental-health scores with their boyhood-activity scores.Points were awarded for part-time jobs，housework，effort in school，and ability to deal with problems.
The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly .Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people，five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed.The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out.Working-at any age-is important.Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility，independence，confidence and competence-the underpinnings （基础） of emotional health.They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals.The most competent adults are those who know how to do this.Yet work isn't everything，As Tolstoy once said， "One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love，to work for the person one loves and to love one's work."
46. What do we know about John？ ______
A. He enjoyed his career and marriage.
B. He had few childhood playmates.
C. He received little love from his family.
D. He was envied by others in his childhood.
47. Vaillant's words in Paragraph 2 serve as ______ .
A. a description of personal values and social values
B. an analysis of how work was related to competence
C. an example for parents' expectations of their children
D. an explanation why some boys grew into happy men
48. Vaillant's team obtained their findings by ______ .
A. recording the boys' effort in school
B. evaluating the men's mental health
C. comparing different sets of scores
D. measuring the men's problem solving ability
49. What does the underlined word "sharp" probably mean in Paragraph 4？ ______
A. Quick to react. B. Having a thin edge.
C. Clear and definite. D. Sudden and rapid.
50. What can be inferred from the last paragraph？ ______
A. Competent adults know more about love than work.
B. Emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life.
C. Love brings more joy to people than work does.
D. Independence is the key to one's success.

Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has.There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.
We experience this tiredness in two ways：as start-up fatigue（疲惫）and performance fatigue.In the former case,we keep putting off a task because it is either too boring or too difficult.And the longer we delay it,the more tired we feel.
Such start-up fatigue is very real,even if not actually physical,not something in our muscles and bones.The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply：always handle the most difficult job first.
Years ago,I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors.Applying my own rule,I determined to write them in alphabetical order（按字母顺序），never letting myself leave out a tough idea.And I always started the day's work with the difficult task of essay-writing.Experience proved that the rule works.
Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle.Though willing to get started,we cannot seem to do the job right.Its difficulties appear so great that,however hard we work,we fail again and again.In such a situation,I work as hard as I can—then let the unconscious take over.
When planning Encyclopaedia Britannica（《大英百科全书》），I had to create a table of contents based on topics of its articles.Nothing like this had ever been done before,and day after day I kept coming up with solutions,but none of them worked.My fatigue became almost unbearable.
One day,mentally exhausted,I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved.I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself,not with me.Relieved,I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.
An hour later,I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind.In the weeks that followed,the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step.Though I worked as hard as before,I felt no fatigue.Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.
Human beings,I believe,must try to succeed.Success,then,means never feeling tired.
51. People with start-up fatigue are most likely to ______ .
A. delay tasks B. work hard C. seek help D. accept failure
52. What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue？ ______
A. Writing essays in strict order.
B. Building up physical strength.
C. Leaving out the toughest ideas.
D. Dealing with the hardest task first.
53. On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue？ ______
A. Before starting a difficult task.
B. When all the solutions fail.
C. If the job is rather boring.
D. After finding a way out.
54. According to the author,the unconscious mind may help us ______ .
A. ignore mental problems B. get some nice sleep
C. gain complete relief D. find the right solution
55. What could be the best title for the passage？ ______
A. Success Is Built upon Failure
B. How to Handle Performance Fatigue
C. Getting over Fatigue：A Way to Success
D. Fatigue：An Early Sign of Health Problems

【解析】答案：B wouldn't不会；couldn't不能；shouldn't不应该；needn't不必。根据前面的句子，It was really annoying。真让人心烦。可以知道应该是没法使用数据库，所以用couldn't，故选B。

对于情景交际的题要认真领会句子的语境，把握说话者的语气很重要。
7.【答案】C
【解析】句意：随着人口平均年龄的增长，越来越多的老人需要照顾。A.unless，表示除非；B.until 表示直到……为止；C.as随着，当.....时；D.while 当……时。干扰项D项while 引导时间状语从句，表示"当……时"，动词为延续性动词，表示持续的动作，强调状态。as 引导的从句的动作和主句的动作通常是同时发生变化，有伴随的意味；而while没有这种意味。as引导时间状语从句，表示动作发生的背景和前提条件，且从句中的动作和主句中的动作是同时发生，从句的动词通常为延续性动词。根据本句句意，表示"随着"，应为as。故选C。
8.【答案】A
【解析】句意：玛丽在讨论的初期阶段沉默不语，不过最后她发表了对该问题的看法。本题考查的是动词短语的辨析，"give voice to"说出意见；"keep an eye on"密切注视，留意；"turn a deaf ear to"对……置之不理；"set foot on"踏上，登上。根据句意，最后她"说出了自己的意见"，故选A。
9.【答案】D
【解析】答案D
本题考查非限制性定语从句。
从句缺少时间状语，即next week。因而关系副词应该用when。因此答案为D。
我们将推迟野餐到下周，那时候天气可能会好点儿。
考生需了解非限制性定语从句中when的使用，在非限制性定语从句中，主句中先行词为时间，从句中缺少的是时间状语，则要用when引导。
10.【答案】D
【解析】句意：天气预报说今天会是多云并且后半夜可能有雨。A.影响；B.感觉；C.改变；D.机会，可能性。a slight chance of…表示有……的可能性/机会，固定短语。故选D。
11.【答案】C
【解析】答案：C
A：通过；用完；B：下车；C：陷入；D：下车．根据句意"一旦你陷入毒品就很难自拔．"及所给选项分析可知，本题答案为C选项；其余选项均不符合题意．
一旦你陷入毒品就很难自拔．
本题考查动词短语的辨析，做此类题目时要先弄清楚各个选项的含义及用法，再结合句意及其它要求确定最终选选．
12.【答案】B
【解析】句意：人们现在比过去有更好的途径看病，结果更长寿。分析句意可知，是拿人们看病的途径现在和过去进行对比，叙述的是现在的一种客观情况，故使用一般现在时。且根据固定短语have access to“可接近的”，故选B。
13.【答案】D
【解析】句意：你等车的地点错了。大客车是在旅店接送游客的。本句如果将句首的It is去掉，则仍然构成了一个完整结构的句子：at the hotel the coach picks up tourists；所以该句为强调句，其结构是：It is/was+强调部分+that+其余部分，如果强调部分是人，也可以用who，这句话强调的是地点状语at the hotel。故选D。
14.【答案】C
【解析】根据句意和结构可知本句最后is后面是表语从句，从句内容和意思都是完整的，用that引导表语从句，解释beauty的内容．
故选：C．
像世界杯一样的巡回赛的美丽之处在于它是非常难以预料的．
表语从句放在连系动词之后，充当复合句中的表语．表语从句（Predicative Clause）就是指一个句子作为表语，说明主语是什么或者怎么样，由名词、形容词或相当于名词或形容词的词或短语充当，和连系动词一起构成谓语．
15.【答案】D
【解析】根据句意可知，该题考查情态动词的用法。for后的句子the first man I met asked sympathetically， "Are you feeling all right？"说明前面是肯定的猜测，且动作发生在过去，要用must have done来表示对过去发生的事情的肯定的推测，意思是"一定已经做了某事"。
故选：D。
我一走进房间，就觉得我的疼痛是很明显的，因为我遇到的第一个人关心地问："你没事吧？"
了解句意，根据句意要确定情态动词的使用，尤其当情态动词表示对过去发生的事情进行猜测时的使用。

41~45.【答案】D、A、C、B、A
【解析】41--45DACBA
本文先讲述了一种社会现象--父母希望孩子成为自己的"克隆"，希望孩子能继续"接力"自己年轻时的任务．随后作者通过记叙自己在校表现并不优异的儿子的帮自己修好了车的事例来表达观点--出版社需要打字员，工程需要技工，建筑行业需要建造者，每个人都有自己的价值，只要用在合适的地方．作者为自己的儿子感到骄傲，虽然他从未上过学校的光荣榜．
考生需在文中着重抓住细节信息．在综合细节的基础上进行判断，在文中找到信息．
1. D 推理判断题．本题需理解作者一开始对儿子的寄望是什么．由第一段的第一句话可以推断出来Every man wants his son to be somewhat of a clone，not in features but in footsteps．（每个人都希望他的儿子成为自己某方面的克隆，不是外表的克隆，而是在"传承"上的克隆．）可见，作者也是其中之一．因此答案为D．
2. A 细节理解题．解答此题的关键词在于the author's children，因此需要在文中找出有关作者孩子的信息．由第三段My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master's degree in English．But Jody？When he entered the tenth grade he became a"vo-tech"student（技校学生）．They're called"motorheads"by the rest of the student body．可以找到，作者的女儿是大学生，正准备攻读英语类的研究生．而儿子却被其他学生叫做"motorhead"．可见，女儿的在校表现比儿子要好．因此答案为A．
3. C 细节理解题．在第五段可以找到答案．I doubted it，but let him go ahead，for I had nothing to lose．可知，我让儿子修车的原因是--我并没有什么损失．因此答案为C．
4. B 深层理解题．本题需要判断作者情感态度．由倒数第二段可以找到信息，These kids are happiest when doing repairs．They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world．And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes．可知，答案为B．
5. A 深层理解题．本题需猜测作者情感态度．由最后一段可知作者想要表达的全文的中心思想．publishers need printers，engineers need mechanics，and architects need builders．Most important，I have learned that fathers don't need clones in footsteps or anywhere else．My son may never make the school honor roll．But he made mine．作者对社会上的普遍观点是持否定态度的--希望自己孩子"继承"自己的志愿是不明智的．因此答案为A．
46~50.【答案】A、D、C、C、B
【解析】（1）A．细节理解题。根据第一段When John was growing up，…Most of all，he was happier.Far happier.当约翰长大后，其他的孩子都为他感到难过。他的父母总是让他在花园里除草，倒垃圾，送报纸．但是当约翰长大后，他比他儿时的玩伴过得更好。他有更多的工作满足感，更好的婚姻，更健康，最重要的是，他更快乐，更幸福。可知约翰喜欢他的事业和婚姻。结合选项，故选A．
（2）D．推理判断题。根据第二段Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society.在家里或社群里获得能力的孩子会感受到自己的社会价值，以及最后一句And because they felt good about themselves，others felt good about them.因为他们对自己的感觉良好/对自己的肯定度高，所以别人也对他们的感觉良好。可知维兰特的话解释了为什么有些男孩会成长为快乐的人。结合选项，故选D．
（3）C．细节理解题。根据第三段Points were awarded for part-time jobs，housework，effort in school，and ability to deal with problems.兼职工作、家务活、在学校的努力程度和处理问题的能力都获得了分数。可知维兰特的研究小组通过比较不同的分数得出了他们的发现。结合选项，故选C．
（4）C．词义猜测题。根据文章第四段内容The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly ．从小做事情和长大后成为什么样的人之间的联系非常明显。故sharp意为"清楚明确的"。A.Quick to react 反应迅速；B.Having a thin edge 边缘薄的；C.Clear and definite 清晰明确的；D.Sudden and rapid 突然而迅速的。故选C．
（5）B．推理判断题。根据最后一段 Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility，independence，confidence and competence-the underpinnings（基础） of emotional health.The most competent adults are those who know how to do this.Yet work isn't everything.As Tolstoy once said， "One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love，to work for the person one loves and to love one's work."儿童活动有助于儿童发展责任感、独立性、信心和能力--情绪健康的基础。最有能力的成年人是那些知道如何去做的人。然而工作并不是万能的．正如托尔斯泰曾经说过的："如果一个人知道如何去工作，如何去爱，为他所爱的人工作，热爱自己的工作，那么他就能在这个世界上过得非常出色。"可知情感健康对美好的成人生活至关重要。结合选项，故选B．
文章讲述了一项历时40年的研究，研究表明，那些曾在男孩时代工作过的男孩比那些没有在男孩时代工作过的男孩享受更快乐和更富有成效的生活，童年时所做的事情与成年后的表现之间有着惊人的联系。总之，任何年龄段的工作都很重要。童年活动都有助于孩子培养责任感、独立性、信心和能力，这是情绪健康的基础。它们也有助于他理解人们必须合作并朝着共同的目标努力。
做这类题材的阅读理解时要求考生对文章先通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案。做题时要在抓住关键句子的基础上进行合理地分析，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据。
51~55.【答案】A、D、B、D、C
【解析】（1）A.细节理解题。根据文章第二段We experience this tiredness in two ways ：as start-up fatigue （疲惫）and performance fatigue.In the former case,we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. （我们以两种方式体验这种疲劳：开始型疲劳和能力型疲劳。在前一种情况下，我们不断推迟一项任务，因为它要么太无聊，要么太难。）由此可知，有开始型疲劳的人们最有可能推迟任务。A.delay tasks 延迟任务；B.work hard 努力工作；C.seek help 寻求帮助；D.accept failure 接受失败。故选A．
（2）D.推理判断题。根据文章第二段，The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply：always handle the most difficult job first.解决方案是显而易见的，但也许不容易应用：总是先处理最困难的工作。可知，为了防止启动疲惫，作者建议先解决最难的任务，结合选项，故选D．
（3）B.细节理解题。根据第五段第二句Its difficulties appear so great that,however hard we work,we fail again and again.In such a situation,I work as hard as I can-then let the unconscious take over （它的困难看起来如此之大，以至于无论我们多么努力工作，我们都会一次又一次地失败。在这种情况下，我尽我所能地努力工作--然后让潜意识接管）由此可推断出，能力型疲劳是无论我们工作的多艰辛，但是我们还是一遍又一遍的失败，因此当所有的解决办法都失败的时候，一个人会感到能力型疲劳。故选B．
（4）D.细节理解题。根据原文倒数第二段"In the weeks that followed,the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step.在接下来的几周里，我潜意识里想到的解决办法每一步都被证明是正确的。"可知根据作者的说法，潜意识可以帮助我们找到正确的解决办法。A.ignore mental problems 忽视心理问题；B.get some nice sleep 好好睡一觉；C.gain complete relief 获得完全缓解；D.find the right solution 找到正确的解决办法。故选D.
（5）C.标题归纳题。本文主要针对两种不同类型的疲劳，作者给出了解释和解决办法并通过自己的例子给出了证明．第一段和第二段是总领全文段落，引出两种不同的疲劳。第三段和第四段是对于"开始性疲劳"给出的定义，解决方法和自身的经历．第五段到第八段是对于"能力型疲劳"给出的定义，解决方案和自身经历。最后一段对文章中心的升华。由此可知，文章是关于克服疲劳，走向成功的文章。A项意为：成功建立于失败之上。B项意为：怎样处理能力型疲劳。C项意为：克服疲劳是走向成功的方法。D项意为：疲劳是健康问题的早期信号。均不符合文意，故选C．
本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者围绕失败、疲倦、成功之间的关系展开论述。重点提出start-up fatigue 和 performance fatigue 两种类型的疲倦问题，并分别以自己的亲身经历提出解决办法。最后指出克服疲倦的关键是获得成功。
考查社会文化类阅读理解。做题时要通读全文，把握大意，然后结合题干及选项做出正确的选择。
