I stopped for a minute 你  who have stood on it before.”I began to  46     that step onto the glass floor. I didn’t look down —  47     not for a few minutes.

I walked on the    48    and looked around and thought about how   49    the experience was. I even found myself jumping up and down. There was no 50    , and it was certainly an illusion.

I considered how many things in our lives we 51     and exactly how many of them are actually illusions. I thought about all the things we   52     ourselves from doing because we have   53    ourselves into thinking there’s risk. I thought about all the things that I still have yet to do that appeared 54    .

7.考查动词辨析。我们发现我们的腿在颤抖。根据下文I stopped for a minute considering the step,我停下来想想要不要迈出这一步。再有前面说了是玻璃地板,透明的,估计作者害怕,所以脚发抖。tremble颤抖。 wave挥动;move移动;wander徘徊。故选C。

8.考查动词词组辨析。在移动前,我花了几秒钟来观察这个边缘。look over观察;think over仔细考虑;look up查询资料;think up想出。故选A。

10.考查副词辨析。这只是一个错觉。simply仅仅; happily快乐地;greatly极大地; relatively相当地。故选B。

11.考查动词辨析。我开始踏出了登上玻璃地板那一步。take the step是固定搭配。choose选择; decide决定;pick捡起。故选A。

16.考查动词辨析。根据前文,我们知道作者开始害怕登上玻璃地面,但其实这根本没有危险,只是一种错觉。所以这里应该是讲人的一生会碰到很多我们害怕的事,但其实只是一种错觉。fear 害怕;handle处理;ignore忽视;hide躲藏。故选C。

17.考查动词辨析。我想到那些因为我们自己认为有危险,而不让自己去感动事情。block阻止;protect保护;help帮助;separate分开。故选A。

I had my first job at the age of thirteen, when a friend of my mother’s who owned a bookshop _36 me for six hours a week to help her in the shop. I was very   37 to earn my own pocket money and my parents   38 interfered(干涉) with how I spent it, even when I was spending it   39 . They believed that by earning money, spending it, and learning from the   40 , I would become more mature(成熟) and  41 about how to handle work, relationships with others, and money.

Like many   42 parents, my parents also let me and my brothers do things over which they  43  a great deal. When I was sixteen, for example, after I finished high school and before I entered university, I wanted to spend the summer months traveling around   44 . My mother was against the idea of my traveling alone at such a young age, but my father felt that it would be a great   45 for me. In the end, my father won the   46 on the condition that I limited my traveling to France, my mother’s home, where I had many uncles, aunts and cousins   47 through the country who could   48 shelter and help if I need them.

Three years later, my younger brother decide to   49 a year off after his first year in university and travel through the United States and the Caribbean.

These kinds of experiences are probably rare(稀少的) for children in many countries but in the US they are fairly   53 . Most parents start   54 their children at a young age to do small things by themselves. By the time they have finished high school, many American kids have already had part-time jobs, traveled around the US or other countries on their own, have   55 the university they plan to attend and maybe even decided on their future career, and so on.
