Once a group of 【1】 (high) successful engineers got together to visit their old university professor, Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. While they were 【2】 (talk), the professor went and prepared coffee in the kitchen. Then back with a pot of coffee and cups 【3】 different kinds, some ordinary-looking, some expensive, some delicate, the professor told them to help 【4】(they) to hot coffee. When they all had a cup of coffee in their hands, he said, “If you noticed, all the nice-looking expensive cups 【5】 (take)up, leaving behind the plain and cheap-looking ones. While it’s normal for you to choose the best for yourselves, that’s the source of your problems and stress. In 【6】 (real), the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. What mattered most was coffee, not the cup, 【7】 you went for the best cups directly and 【8】 (bad) still, you began eyeing each other’s cups. If life is coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They’re just tools 【9】 hold and contain life, but the quality of life doesn’t change. Sometimes by 【10】 (concentrate) only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee in it.”
Don’t let the cups drive you, and enjoy the coffee instead.
【答案】
【1】highly
【2】talking
【3】of
【4】themselves
【5】were taken/had been taken
【6】reality

【8】worse
【9】that/which
【10】concentrating
【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章记叙了一群非常成功的工程师聚在一起去拜访他们的大学老教授,抱怨工作和生活中的压力。老教授则通过杯子和咖啡的关系来告诉工程师们,如果生活是咖啡,那么工作、金钱和社会地位就是杯子。它们只是承载生活的工具,但生活的质量不会改变。有时,我们只专注于杯子,却无法享受其中的咖啡。不要让杯子左右你,而要享受咖啡。
【1】考查副词。句意:有一次,一群非常成功的工程师聚在一起去拜访他们的大学老教授,谈话很快就变成了抱怨工作和生活中的压力。successful为形容词需要副词修饰故填highly。
【2】考查动词时态。句意:当他们谈话时,教授去厨房准备咖啡。根据上文While they were可知为过去进行时,故填talking。
【3】考查固定短语。句意:然后拿着一壶咖啡和各种各样的杯子,有普通的,有昂贵的,有精致的,教授叫他们自己随便拿热咖啡。短语cups of different kinds“不同种类的杯子”。故填of。
【4】考查反身代词。句意同上。短语help oneself to“自行取用”。故填themselves。
【5】考查动词时态语态。句意:如果你注意一下,就会发现所有好看的贵的杯子都被拿走了,剩下的是那些普通的和便宜的。本句主语与谓语动词构成被动关系,且事情发生在过去,故用一般过去时的被动语态,主语为复数名词,故填were taken。或表示动作发生在notice之前,即“过去的过去”,故用过去完成时的被动语态,填had been taken。
【6】考查固定短语。句意:事实上,杯子本身并不能增加咖啡的品质。固定短语in reality“实际上”。故填reality。
【7】考查连词。句意:最重要的是咖啡,而不是杯子,但你们直接选择了最好的杯子,更糟糕的是,你们开始打量对方的杯子。根据上下文语境可知为转折关系,故填but。
【8】考查形容词比较级。句意同上。根据上下文可知,表示“更糟糕的”故填形容词比较级worse。
【9】考查定语从句连接词。句意:它们只是承载生活的工具,但生活的质量不会改变。本句为定语从句修饰先行词tools,且先行词在从句中做主语,指物,故填that/which。
【10】考查非谓语动词。句意:有时,我们只专注于杯子,却无法享受其中的咖啡。by为介词后跟动名词做宾语,故填concentrating。
定语从句中的关系词选择,可考虑以下几点:
1、看清楚先行词的意义,就是理清先行词是指人、指物、时间、地点、原因。指物时不能用who或whom,指人时通常不用which等等。
2、看清楚关系词的句法功能,就是理清关系词是担任什么句子成分,是作主语还是宾语、是作定语还是状语等等。作定语通常用whose,有时也用which。作状语要用when, where, why。
3、看清楚定语从句的种类,就是理清是限制性定语从句还是非限制性定语从句。that、why通常不引导非限制性定语从句。
4、看清楚文体,就是理清是正式文体,还是非正式文体。是书面语体还是口语体。
如第九小题,句意:它们只是承载生活的工具,但生活的质量不会改变。本句为定语从句修饰先行词tools,且先行词在从句中做主语,指物,故填that/which。
