分析 本文通过讲述作者在高中时期的经历告诉我们,必须自信,实现自己所认为的梦想.

解答 36-45  CBDCA  BABCD    46-55ABACD  CCADA
36  C 本题考查语篇理解中的"下文照应".设空所在的句意为:因为我高中没有努力学习.句中的apply oneself(to sth./to doing sth.)意为"努力学习;勤奋工作".
37 B 本题考查语篇理解中的"上文照应".根据上文"I was looking ahead to my future and I really wanted to be a social worker."可知.
38 D 本题考查语篇理解中的"下文照应".根据下文他的断言"You're not college material."可知他不信任我,认为我根本不是上大学的料.
39  C 本题考查语篇理解中的"常识推断".设空所在的句意为:听了他冷冰冰的断言,我感觉心脏都停止跳动了.表明我的灰心失望,同时结合下一段我的自暴自弃亦可推出.
40  A 本题考查语篇理解中的"措辞界定".句意为:我把消息告诉了父母,看到我如此受伤,如此想上大学,父母决定帮助我.scared"害怕";interested"感兴趣"; surprised"吃惊",都不符合语境.
41  B 本题考查语篇理解中的"措辞界定".分析句子成分:whose financial status would permit anyone to________为定语从句.先行词college在定语从句中为所选词的宾语,所以应该选attend.attend college"上大学".本句意为:后来他们为我找了一个任何人都能上的大学.
42 A 本题考查语篇理解中的"上文照应".设空所在的句意为:(这是一所只要有脉搏的人就可以上的大学),所以我感觉自己很失败.表明了作者当时的灰心失望,从而表现出破罐子破摔的态度.
43  B 本题考查语篇理解中的"措辞界定".设空所在的句意为:我是如此的相信Mr.Shaw的断言以至于即使在这样一所大学,我还是失败了.句中的even是关键词,同时与上文中的loser相呼应.
44 C 本题考查语篇理解中的"上文照应".根据上文"I was beginning to believe what Mr.Shaw had said…"可以推出.本句意为:我放弃了,我接受了Mr.Shaw对我下的断言.
45 D  本题考查语篇理解中的"措辞界定".设空所在的句意为:或许大学是不适合我的.根据上文中我上大学的失败及我的放弃,并开始找兼职工作干,可以推出.另外应该注意daydreams不等同于dreams,不符合句意.
46  A 本题考查语篇理解中的"措辞界定".设空所在的句意为:在内心深处,我还是想成为一个社会工作者,但是那将需要大学的文凭.此处would表示主语的属性.
47   B 本题考查语篇理解中的"措辞界定".设空所在的句意为:我该怎么办?我必须再试试(再努力).根据下文作者的努力可推出.
48   A 本题考查语篇理解中的"措辞界定".设空所在的句意为:我鼓足勇气,注册了一所社区的大学.此空后面的定语从句中的动词gather是关键词,其他选项和gather都不搭配.
49  C 本题考查语篇理解中的"下文呼应".根据下文"I got an A!I can't believe it"可以很容易的推出答案.
50  D 本题考查语篇理解中的"上文照应".该句为过渡句,起到承上启下的作用.根据上文我竟然得了A,可以推出事情出现了转机.
51   C 本题考查语篇理解中的"措辞界定".根据上文她对我的评价和Mr.Shaw截然不同,可知"作为一个教育专家,她传递给我的是完全不同的信息".其他措辞不合句意.
52  C 本题考查语篇理解中的"措辞界定".综合全文,以前我选择相信Mr.Shaw,所以自暴自弃,差点迷失了方向.现在我选择相信Dr.Cohen而成功,所以"选择相信谁可以改变你的人生".这也是文章的主旨.
53  A 本题考查语篇理解中的"措辞界定".设空所在的句意为:当我相信Mr.Shaw的话时,我的人生毁了,我不可能再实现自己的梦想.fall apart"崩溃,毁掉",固定短语.
54   D 本题考查语篇理解中的"措辞界定".设空所在的句意为:当我选择相信自己的时候,我遇到了更多像Dr.Cohen一样鼓励我和支持我的人.句中the way做方式状语,省略了介词in,其他选项都不能够省略介词做状语.
55  A 本题考查语篇理解中的"综合照应".设空所在的句意为:正如Henry Ford 所说,你认为你行你就行,你认为你不行你就不行.

点评 做完形填空时要快速的浏览全文,把握文章主旨大意,带着问题回到原文,寻找细节或概括相应的答案,最后要理清作者写作思路.

9.You're eating too much chocolate.And it's getting so out of control that the world could be headed towards a disaster if it doesn't stop.
Chocolate shortages are becoming a regular thing.We are suffering the worst chocolate shortages in more than 50years.Last year,the world consumed(消耗) 70,000metric tons more cocoa than it produced.By 2020,that number could increase to 1million metric tons.
The problem is,for one,a supply issue.Dry weather in West Africa has greatly reduced production in the region.It has wiped out over 30percent of global cocoa production.Because of this,cocoa farming has proven a very tough business,and many farmers have shifted to more profitable crops,like corn,as a result.
Then there's the world's huge appetite for chocolate.China growing love for it is of particular concern.The Chinese are buying more and more chocolate each year.Still,they each only eat about 5percent of what the average Western European eats.There's also the rising popularity of dark chocolate,which contains more cocoa than traditional chocolate bars.
For these reasons,cocoa prices have climbed by more than 60percent since 2012,when people started eating more chocolate than the world could produce.And chocolate makers have,in turn,been forced to adjust by raising the price of their bars.
Efforts to change the growing imbalance have inspired an innovation(革新,创新).Specifically,an agricultural research group is developing trees that can produce up to seven times the amount of beans that traditional cocoa trees can.
In this process,chocolate,like the chicken and strawberries,will go from tasty to forgettable on the road to plenty.It's unclear whether anyone will mind it if it keeps prices down.And the industry certainly won't mind,as long as it helps to deal with the shortage.
33.What does the underlined word in the second paragraph,"number",refer to?B
A.The amount of chocolate the world produces.
B.The amount of chocolate the world consumes.
C.The amount of cocoa farmers produces each year.
D.The gap(缺口) between supply and consumption(消耗) of cocoa.
34.The Chinese people's enthusiasm for chocolateB.
A.is higher than that of Europeans
B.is becoming a serious problem
C.has made dark chocolate more popular
D.is the largest factor in the chocolate shortage
35.ChocolateD as a result of production increasing.
A.now tastes like chicken and strawberries
B.may gradually be forgotten by people
C.may cause people to become unhappy
D.may not be as tasty as before.

10.Homework is a major part of going to school:It's your teachers'way of evaluating(评价)how much you understand of what's going on in class.(36)CLuckily,you can do a few things to make homework less work.
Be sure you understand the homework.
Write your homework down in your notebook or day planner if you need to.(37)EIt's much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night!
Use any extra time in school.
Many schools have study halls that are specifically designed to allow students to study.It's tempting(诱惑)to hang out with friends during study periods or unstructured(松散的) time.(38)G
Take a break.
(39)DSo take some breaks while doing your homework.Sitting for too long without stretching or relaxing will make you less productive than if you stop every so often.Taking a 15minute break every hour is a good idea for most people.
(40)A
If you don't finish your homework during school,think about how much you have left and what else is going on that day,and then budget your time.Most highschool students have between 1and 3hours of homework a night.If it's a heavy homework day and it seems like you've got an assignment in every subject but gym and lunch,you'll need to devote more time to homework.It's a good idea to come up with some kind of homework schedule,especially if you are involved in sports or activities or have an afterschool job.
A.Pace yourself.
B.Settle down to do homework.
C.And it helps digest important concepts.
D.Most people's attention spans aren't very long.
E.Don't be afraid to ask questions about what's expected.
F.Once your homework is done,you can check over it if you have extra time.
G.But the more work you can get done in school,the less you'll have to do that night.

8.Teamwork is the ability to work together with other members toward a common goal.
(36)C Many factors influence the working of a team.If a team can't get the desired results,try the following ways that would help improve teamwork.
Planning goals ahead:(37)G When a goal is planned,all team members should be clear about their goals they have to achieve and then they should find a way that would lead them to achieve their goals.
Electing team leader:A team is led by the team leader.(38)D It is the leader's duty to work out the conflicts (冲突) caused by different characters and attitudes.
Maintaining good relationship between team members:Teamwork needs cooperation (合作).(39)A So it would also be great if the team members can communicate outside the workplace to know each other more.This will help increase a sense of togetherness at work,thus improving teamwork.
Avoiding competition:Competition is important for a person's growth.(40)F One should understand that each person has his or her own strengths and weaknesses.Rather than compete with each other in the team,one should learn from others and improve one's performance.
A.It would be good for their cooperation if the members know each other well.
B.But there are many difficulties in teamwork.
C.The ability can help common people achieve uncommon goals.
D.His or her duty is to encourage and lead the team members to achieve their goal.
E.The goals should be easy enough to achieve.
F.However,unhealthy competition among group members can hurt team spirit.
G.It is the duty of all the members to work together to plan the goal.

5.People who enjoy a dream-filled sleep are better at recalling information and making links between facts when waking.But recharging with a shallow (小睡) offers no such mental improvement,the research suggests.The results of the study added to the growing body of evidence that Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep is very important to the brain's ability to form strong memories.
An average night's rest includes four or five spells of REM sleep,but these bursts tend to be lengthier towards the end of the night.This means adults getting less than the recommended seven to eight hours a night--and therefore inadequate REM sleep--may be damaging their mind's ability to memorize:Although REM sleep is not classified as a type of deep sleep,it is only reached after the brain has passed through deep sleep stages.
In the recent study,participants were shown groups of three words and asked to find another word that can be associated with all three words.They were tested once in the morning and then given the same task again in the afternoon.In between,some were allowed a nap with REM sleep,some a nap without REM sleep,while the others had a quiet rest period.The quiet rest and non-REM sleep groups didn't improve,but the REM sleep group improved on their morning performance by an average of almost 40 per cent.Dr Sara Mednick,a sleep researcher at the University of California who led the study,believes the formation of connections between previously unassociated information in the brain occurs during REM sleep.
It is believed that sleep acts as a sort of mental filing system,enabling the brain to sort relevant information from useless information.This process may take place as memories are removed hem one art of the brain to others.

12.Dear Sir,
I have to travel every day from So UK Road to the airport.Two buses travel along this route:No.49and No.16.However,by the time No.16reaches So UK Road,it is always full.(36)E
The timetable states that there are buses from So UK Road to the airport every ten minutes.(37)D The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus,the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting.(38)G
The instructions state that no bus may carry more than 40seated passengers and 20standing passengers.Yesterday,I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport.(39)AThere were 129of them.
Clearly printed on the back of every bus is a sign that says"Maximum speed:50mph."(40)B Saturday morning a No.49bus traveled the distance in ten minutes,at an average speed of 60mph.At times it must have done at least 80or even 90mph.
It is obvious that our bus companies have neither respect for the instructions nor consideration for their passengers.Can nothing be done about this?
Jerry
A.I counted the other passengers as they got off.
B.The distance from So UK Road to the airport is 10miles.
C.The problem is that we have to pay more for our trip.
D.If this is so,why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day?
E.This leaves No.49which sometimes has empty seats on it.
F.Is there anything we can do to change this?
G.Why is it that half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop?

9.The right pair of exercise shoes can do a lot to prevent discomfort and injuries,personal trainers say.Here are some shopping tips:
(33)BDepending on your workout,shoes designed for walking,running,tennis,cross-training or another specialty will provide the best support for your feet.
Shop when you normally exercise.Feet actually get bigger throughout the day,sometimes swelling up as much as a half-size by nighttime.(34)D
Try them on.Never grab a pair of exercise shoes based only on the size of footwear you normally buy.Bring the type of socks you'd wear to work out and go for a walk through the store.
(35)C   You should be able to spread your toes out comfortably.Make sure there's about a half-inch of space between them and the front of the shoe.The back should fit snugly (warmly and comfortably) against your heel and not move up and down.If your feet are different sizes,buy based on the larger one.
Talk to an expert.Shoe salesmen and personal trainers can study your stride (步伐) and the shape of your feet.(36)G
(37)F   Many trainers recommend switching footwear every three to five months,if possible,to maintain proper cushioning and support.
One tip:if you have to tie your shoes very tightly to feel a good amount of support,they may be ready to go.

A.Think about how much you can afford to buy the workout shoes.
B.Consider your type of exercise.
C.Focus on fit.
D.So don't shop first thing in the morning if you often work out in the evening.
E.Pay more attention to new style shoes.
F.Replace worn shoes regularly.
G.Usually they can recommend the best shoes to guard against injuries.

(72)F Like the table of contents of a book or magazine,the home page is the front door.Your site can have one or more pages,depending oil how you design it.
While web pages vary greatly in their design and content,most use a traditional magazine lay-out(版面设计).At the top of the page is a banner(横幅).Next comes a greeting and a short description of the site.Pictures,text,and links to other websites follow.
(73)E Think about whom the site is for and what you want to say.Next,gather up the material that you want to put on the site.
While there are no roles you have to follow,there are a few things to keep in mind:(74)A If you are too much at the beginning,you may never get the site off the ground.You can always add to your site.
Less is better.Most people don't like to read a lot of long text online.(75)B
Smaller is better.Since it can take a long time to download large image files,keep the file sizes small.
Have the fights.Don't put any material on your site unless you are sure you can do it legally.Always remember to get the permission from the writer first.
Now it's time to roll up your sleeves and start building.
A.Start simply.
B.Break it into small pieces.
C.Draw a rough layout on a sheet of paper.
D.Many websites are considered very interesting.
E.Before you start building your site,do some planning.
F.Think of your home page as the starting point of your website.
G.These days,having a web address is almost as important as a street address.
