Embroidering(刺绣)
When I was a little boy living in New York, my mother used to embroider a great deal. I would sit at her knee and look up from the 36 and ask what she was doing. She 37 me that she was embroidering. I told her that it looked like a mess from where I was. As from the underside I watched her work within the 38 of the little round hoop(铁环)that she held in her hand, I complained to her that it sure looked 39 from where I sat.
She would smile at me, look down and 40 say, "My son, you go about your 41 for a while, and when I am finished with my embroidering, I will put you on my 42 and let you see it from my side."
I would wonder why she was using some dark threads along with the 43 ones and why they seemed so jumbled(混乱的)from my 44 . A few minutes would pass and then I would hear Mother's voice say, " Son, come and sit on my knee." This I did only to be surprised and 45 to see a beautiful flower or a sunset. I could not 46 it, because from underneath it looked so messy.
Then mother would 47 to me, "My son, from underneath it did look messy and jumbled, but you did not realize that there was a 48 plan on the top. It was a 49 . I was only following it. Now look at it from my side 50 you will see what I was doing."
Many 51 through the years, I have 52 up to my Heavenly Father and said, “ Father, what are You doing? ” He 53 , “ I am embroidering your 54 . ”I say, " But it looks like a mess to me. It seems so jumbled. The threads seem so dark. Why can't they all be bright ? " The Father seems to tell me, " My child, you go about your business of doing My business, and one day I will bring you to 55 and put you on my knee and you will see the plan from My side. "

解析试题分析:文中作者讲述了自己小时候看母亲刺绣的事情,刺绣时绣品的正面泾渭分明,图案精美,而反面则丝线交错,杂乱无章。所以在生活中也是这样,当你感到人生迷茫世事纷乱的时候,其实你只是看到事情的反面而已。
【小题1】A名词辨析。A地板;B 角落;C 天花板;D 台阶。从下文As from the underside I watched her work可以推测得知孩子应该是站在低处看母亲刺绣,所以看到的是丝线杂乱。A选项正确。
【小题2】D动词辨析。A 要求;B责备;C 劝说;D 通知,告知。that she was embroidering.是母亲说话的内容,所以此处用inform ,句意:母亲告诉我她在刺绣。D选项正确。
【小题3】B名词辨析。A 装饰;B 边界,分界线;C图片;D表面。从常识可知刺绣时候应该在铁箍或者竹子做的绷子以内刺绣,所以B选项正确。
【小题4】A形容词辨析。A 混乱的;B 肮的;C 破旧的;D 紧的。从下文why they seemed so jumbled(混乱的)可知在刺绣的背面线是杂乱的,故A选项正确。
【小题5】C副词辨析。A机智灵敏地;B小心谨慎地; C温柔地;D 精确准确地。从情理可知孩子在回答孩子问题时,母亲说话应该是柔声细语的。
【小题6】B动词辨析。A 抱怨;B 玩耍;C 刺绣;D 想象。从下文when I am finished with my embroidering, I will put you on可知母亲在刺绣,按情理应该是让孩子去玩一会,回头再让孩子来看。所以B选项正确。
【小题7】C名词辨析。A 后背;B 椅子;C 膝盖;D 桌子。下文母亲喊Son, come and sit on my knee."由此可知母亲让孩子做到膝盖上,C选项正确。
【小题8】C形容词辨析。A 白色的;B 黑色的;C 鲜艳的;D 闪光的。从文章最后作者问上帝的话The threads seem so dark. Why can't they all be bright ?可以推测刺绣时候有黑线,当然也有鲜艳的丝线。C选项正确。
【小题9】D名词辨析。A 眼睛;B 观点;C 心脏;D 视觉,视线。从上下文可知是从小孩子站的角度和视线来看,刺绣背面杂乱的状态。所以正确选项为D。
【小题10】B形容词辨析。A 有希望的;B 激动震颤的;C 令人期望的;D 热情的。作者此时坐在母亲膝盖上看到得是刺绣的正面,正面和反面截然不同,所以孩子感到惊讶。和surprised同类的词是 “感到震惊的”,所以B选项正确。
【小题11】A动词辨析。A 相信;B 考虑;C 看到;D 触摸。从上文可知孩子从低处看到的和坐在母亲膝盖上看到的完全不同,所以作者惊讶震撼不相信眼前的情景, A选项正确。
【小题12】C动词辨析。A谈话;B 提及;C 说;D 低语。从下文的"My son, from underneath it did look messy and jumble可知此处是母亲在和孩子说话,C选项正确。
【小题13】A动词辨析。A 提前画的;B 预演,试映;C 储藏,保存;D 生产。从常识可知刺绣时要提前把花样画到布上,所以A 选项正确。
【小题14】D名词辨析。A 方向;B 线条;C 图表;D 花样。刺绣时按照画的图案都称为花样,故D选项正确。句意:那就是图案花样。
【小题15】B连词辨析。A 或者;B 并且;C 直到;D 除非。Look at it from my side 和 you will see what
I was doing是两个并列句,前后表示顺承关系。所以B选项正确。句意:从我这边看,你就能看到我所做的了。
【小题16】A名词辨析。A 次数;B 天,日子;C 季节;D 机会。从语境可知每当作者迷茫无措时,他都会想起母亲的刺绣,所以此处应该是多次。A选项正确。句意:这么多年来,很多次我都抬头仰望上帝。。
【小题17】D动词辨析。A 爬;B跳;C 喊,嚷;D 看。因为是和上帝对话,所以应该是仰视在天堂的Heavenly Father,look up to 仰视,尊敬;D选项正确。
【小题18】B动词辨析。A 要求;B 回答;C 指示,命令;D 得出结论。从前句Father, what are You doing? ”可知是作者发问,所以推测后面上帝回答道。B选项正确。
【小题19】C名词辨析。A决定;B 机会,财富;C 生活;D 生意。从下文内容可知此处是指作者生活中感到混乱,茫然的时候,而且life 词意更广,所以C选项正确。
【小题20】D名词辨析。A 家 ;B 母亲;C 美国;D 天堂。因为作者是在寻问上帝,所以应该是去天堂,故D选项正确。

I made up my mind to drive to South Carolina to meet my friends in my used car. Though I had only been there once 36 and did not know the 37 very well. I was on the 38 after I had made some enquiries.
At Ashvelle, there was a crossroad where I could go on along the main road or I could take a short cut(小道,近路). The short cut was to 39 several hills and was dangerous, I hesitated (犹豫)for a little while and then chose the main road, for I wanted to be 40 .
Something strange happened 41 I drove a long way and found it was not the correct road that I wanted to 42 , but the hilly road I decided to avoid. I realized that it was at the 43 that I had made the 44 mistake. “What shall I do?” I asked myself. If I went back to take that road again, it would be very late by the time I got to Columbia. Thinking it 45 , I decided to go on. “If 46 people can go along this road, why can’t I?” I 47 myself.
The short cut, to my surprise, was not that 48 . In fact, it was only a very peaceful country road, 49 up and down two low 50 .There was 51 traffic. On both sides of the road, you could see trees, wild flowers, and 52 with cows and horses. My fear was 53 with the wind. Listening to the beautiful country music over my car stereo (立体声), I drove on and 54 the scenery which was so quiet and so natural. Even my used car forgot to give me 55 . It was just in this light heartedness that I arrived at my destination. My friends, after they heard what had happened to me, all said it sounded like an adventure.

On a cold winter day, I waited in line to see my hero, Jack Canfield, the author of The Success Principles, who was going to deliver a speech on his new book.
During his talk, Jack 41 his wallet, pulled out a hundred-dollar bill, and said, ‘‘Who wants this?” 42 shot up in the audience; people leaned forward to see whom Jack would 43 . But I jumped up, ran up the 44 to the stage, and grabbed the bill. As I was launching myself in the air, 45 raced through my mind — was I about to be humiliated(羞辱) in front of 800 people? Would they 46 security guards and take me from the stage? 47 my desire for bold (大胆的)action was louder than any 48 voice. As I got the bill from his hand, he said, “That’s it! We can’t wait for the 49 to come to us. We must take 50 to create what we want!’’
After his talk, I 51 to formally meet Jack and boldly asked for his personal e-mail address. Over the next months, I sent him emails 52 my points of view and dreams with him. He kindly e-mailed back lots of encouragement. But my life got busy 53 other things. I stopped e-mailing Jack.
A year later, my dreams had worn away. I thought Jack would inspire me into action, like a giant arrow that would show me the way.
I e-mailed him, and then again — but got no 54 . As I sat down at my computer to 55 my e-mails, I 56 woke up. What was I doing? I was waiting! Now I remembered the crowd, most likely 57 that hundred-dollar bill, while they sat glued to their chairs.
Usually we all have a “Jack” for whom we wait — whether it’s a person, a place or a thing. We 58 believe the gifts of life are just around the corner, and that everything will come in a(n) 59 way. So we don’t try. We 60 . But as Wayne Gretzky said,“You’ll always miss 100% of the opportunities you don’t take!” So I stopped waiting and started my writing career.
Now what are you waiting for?

I was watching a TV series one night when I took in one scene. A young man was seeking his community votes, and people 36 wanted to know why they should give him their 37 . He took them to his house and on every 38 in his house was the word “Faith” pasted. People raised lots of 39 to find out why the word was pasted on his mirrors. He said, “My dad often 40 me to believe that as long as you have 41 , you should have faith. Every time you look into the mirror, you’re looking at yourself and see ‘Faith’.”
The 42 I learned from this is simple—faith is a living thing and in the same way we’re all 43 given 24 hours a day and we’re all given the same measure of faith. Faith keeps us going when things get 44 ! Why is some people’s faith stronger than that of others? Exercise! If we choose to exercise our faith, it will 45 ; but if we choose not to, it remains weak. Some people might 46 that they don’t have faith, but we all practice faith every day even if we don’t 47 it as a faith. Daily 48 , such as studying, investing or reaching for a dream, take faith.
Faith 49 hearing and doing. I made a decision yesterday—to 50 reading the newspapers full of too much sad and 51 news. Why? Because I 52 there was a drop of my mental state after reading the newspapers.
Faith, when it’s put to 53 , becomes a beautiful thing. It lifts your mental state to a higher place that 54 you to raise yourself up and declare, “Yes, I can.” So make the decision today to strengthen your faith by 55 it.
