解析试题分析:本文讲述作者独自一人去奥克兰求学,需要一份工作充实自己的生活经历,并在一位陌生人的帮助下最终获得了一份工作。作者以此向我们展示一个生活真谛:只要努力,世界会给每个人以回报。
【小题1】考查名词:doubt”怀疑”;concern”担心,挂念,关怀”;instruction”命令,指示,教诲,教导”;由上文的”my mother was worried about a lack of jobs and cultural differences”可知,这是妈妈对我的关心。故此处要用concerns。选B。
【小题2】考查连词短语:even if”即使”;every time”每次”;now that”既然,由于”;soon after”不久以后”。上文说到我不理睬妈妈的担心,但是到了奥克兰之后不久,我就意识到了得到一份工作对我生活开支的重要性。故D项符合文意?。
【小题3】考查介词:对于我的生活经历而言,我认识到得到一份工作对我生活开支的重要性。for”对于;至于”,符合题意。故选C项。
【小题4】on one’s own”独自地,独立地”;on one’s way”在路上”;by any chance”万一”;by the day”按天计算;按日”。从下文看,作者出去找工作都是独自一人完成的,故on my own适合题意。选A。
【小题5】考查形容词:由but可知,but后面的内容应该和前面的I spent several weeks going door?to?door for a job形成转折,”我没找到工作”。选项中只有little表示否定意义。故选D项。
【小题6】考查连接词:我进这所大楼,目的是想找到一份工作,所以去问是否能有工作机会。why”为什么”;wherever”无论在哪里”;whether”是否”;whenever”无论何时”。故只有C项符合题意。
【小题7】考查名词:direction”方向,指导,趋势,用法说明”;attitude”态度,意见,看法”;language”语言”;manner”方式,方法,态度,举止,礼貌,规矩,习惯”;in that manner”以那种方式”。根据上文的I spent several weeks going door?to?door for a job可知,我找工作的方法是挨家挨户地去问,所以这座大楼里的人建议我不要再用这种方式找工作了。故D项符合题意。
【小题8】考查动词:answer”回答”;work”工作”;leave”离开”;refuse”拒绝”。根据上文描述可知,我在此处并没有找到工作,所以正打算离开。Be about to leave”正要离开”,符合文意。选C。
【小题9】考查词组:for ever”永远”;at any time”在任何时候”;as usual “像往常一样”;for a while”一会儿”。由下文的nearly ten minutes later可知,这位一直在旁边听的人是想让我在外面等一会。故D项符合题意。
【小题10】考查动词:return”回来”;hesitate”犹豫”;pass”经过,通过”;regret”后悔”。由下文中”He asked me....”可知这个人回来了。故A项符合题意。
【小题11】考查形容词:silent”沉默的,寂静的”;busy”忙碌的”;positive”积极的”;comfortable”舒适的,舒服的”。由上下文可知,他询问了我的计划,并且鼓励我要继续保持积极的态度,然后推荐我去罗亚尔奥克找一份工作。故C项符合题意。
【小题12】考查动词短语:pick out”挑选出”;search for”寻找,搜索”;take on”呈现,接纳,雇用”;give up”放弃”。从下文可以看出,我在罗亚尔奥克找到了一份工作。故此处只有search for才符合文意。选B。
【小题13】考查形容词:dull”无趣的,单调的”;good”好的,令人满意的”;guilty”自知有过错的,内疚的”;general”一般的,普遍的,大体的,笼统的”。由常识可知,他帮了我,我自然是对他有好感。故B项符合题意。
【小题14】考查词组:make use of”利用”;take care of”照顾”;run out of”用完,用光”;become tired of”厌烦”。由下文的Seeing this,the man at his business partner’s office to make me fifteen copies可知,我的简历表用完了。故只有C项符合题意。
【小题15】考查动词搭配:stop at”逗留在,住宿,对……有所踌躇”;knock at”敲(门、窗等)”;glance at”看一下,浏览”;appear at”到达,出现在”。由常识可知,此处是指他在生意合作伙伴的办公室里,给我复印简历。故A项符合题意。
【小题16】考查形容词:上文提到我的简历用完了,所以此处又复印了15份。表示”再,又”,英语中可以用”基数词+more+复数名词”或者”another+基数词+复数名词”来表示。故只有B项符合题意。
【小题17】考查名词:pressure”压力”;agreement”协议,同意”;impression”印象,影响”;suggestion”建议”。由下文的dressing and speaking可知,此处指他就dressing and speaking而给我提的建议。故选D项。
【小题18】考查形容词:lonely”孤独的,寂寞的”;funny”滑稽的”;disappointed”失望的”;satisfied”感到满意的”。由上文的内容可知,简历虽然用完了,但是这个人又帮我找地方复印了,还就我的dressing and speaking给我提出建议。故我应该是感到满意。故选D项。 
【小题19】考查名词:call”电话”;tip”小费;建议”;present”礼物”;report”报告”。由常识可知,此处是指我接到了要我去罗亚尔奥克一家商店工作的电话。故选A项。
【小题20】考查词组:turn off”关掉,断开;拐弯”;go over “复习;仔细检查”;give back”归还;送回;恢复;后退”;look up”仰望;查阅”。由本文所描述的故事可知,我的体会就是世界似乎总是在你最需要它的时候回报你。故选C项。

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?

Five-year-old Marry loved to play in the street with her friends. This made her parents __41__. They did __42__ to keep her off the street. __43__, day after day they found her out there.

Then one day as Steven was driving home, he saw something that helped __49__ an idea, which became an action by the time he got home. He walked over to where Marry was playing.

“What is it, Daddy?” Marry asked as they got out of the __52__.
“Look __53__, but don’t touch it,” Steven said. “Can’t you tell what it is?”
She studied it for a few minutes, unsure of its __54__ until she picked out its familiar ears. “A rabbit! What happened?” Marry asked.
“It was playing in the road, and a car came along and ...”
“... and squished (压扁) it?” Marry broke __55__.
“That’s right,” Steven said. “It got squished because it was playing in the road.”

The next evening, when Steven drove by a group of children playing in the street, he __57__ what Marry was shouting from the sidewalk.
“Come on, you guys! Stop playing in the street, __58__ you’ll get squished!”
So, if your message isn’t getting through to others, no matter how many times you __59__ it, you should try something __60__. This is Steven’s lesson.
