19.A woman named Emily (25)renewing(renew) her driver's license was asked by a woman recorder to state her occupation.She hesitated,uncertain how to classify herself."What I mean is (26)whetheryou have a job."explained the recorder.
"Of course I have a job,"replied Emily."I'm a mother."
"We don't list‘mother'(27)asan occupation …‘Housewife'covers it,"said the recorder.
    I forgot all about her story (28)untilone day I found myself in the same situation at Town Hall.The clerk was obviously a career woman."What is your occupation?"she asked.
    I don't know what made me say it.The words simply got out."I'm a researcher in the field of Child Development and Human Relation."
    The clerk paused and looked up (29)as ifshe hadn't heard right.
"Might I ask,"said the clerk,"what do you do in your field?"
    Coolly,I heard myself reply,"I have a continuing program of research,in the laboratory and in the field.Normally,I would have said indoors and out.I'm working for my Master,the whole family,and already have four credits.Of course,the job is one of the (30)most demanding(demanding) in the humanities,and I often work 14 hours a day,but the job is more challenging and the rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money."
    There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk's voice as she completed the form,stood up and personally showed me to the door.
    As I drove into our driveway,I was greeted by my lab assistant.Upstairs I could hear my new experimental model,a six-month-old baby,in the child-development program,(31)testing(test) out a new vocal pattern.
    I felt proud!Motherhood …What a glorious career!

分析 文章通过艾米丽和我与工作人员的两段对话,说明了做母亲这份工作的价值和重要性,目的是想让人们重视这一职业也尊重这一职业.

解答 25.renewing 考查非谓语.renew与其逻辑主语 Emily是主动关系且与谓语动作was asked是同时发生的,所以用现在分词,故填renewing.
26.whether 考查连词.根据下面的答语"Of course I have a job"(当然我有工作)可知此处是问是否有工作,故填whether.  
27.as 考查介词.此处as意为"作为",句意:我们不把母亲列出作为一个职业,故填as.
28.until 考查固定搭配.not…until是固定搭配,意为"直到…才".句意:我忘了她的故事,直到有一天,我发现自己在市政厅遇到了相同的情况,故填until. 
29.as if  考查连词.as if意为"似乎是,好像是",引导状语从句.句意:工作人员停了下来,抬起头来,好像没听清楚,故填as if.
30.most demanding 考查形容词的最高级.根据空前的定冠词the和空后的范围 in the humanities,可知此处应用形容词的最高级.句意:当然,这份工作是人类要求最高的工作之一,故填most demanding.
31.testing 考查非谓语.test与其逻辑主语 my new experimental model,a six-month-old baby是主动关系且与谓语动作hear是同时发生的,所以用现在分词,故填testing.

点评 语法填空是通过语篇在语境中考查语法知识的运用能力,在解题前应快速浏览短文掌握大意,在读懂短文的基础上,结合短文提供的特定的语言环境去逐句分析,逐题解答.扎实的语法功底加上准确的理解是解答语法填空题的关键.

7.Dear David,
I'm glad you would like to share your feelings with me.It's hardly surprising that your feelings of not being"grown up"have come on strongly at this point in your life,just before you're about to become a father.You are asking:will I make a good father?How will I cope?Should I have brought another little person into the world?Can I provide for it?Heeelp!I think nearly every sensitive about-to-be-parent must have these occasional feelings of self-doubt and inadequacy (不适) before the birth and it would be most unusual if you didn't share them.
It's difficult,honestly,to feel grown-up unless you have something less grown-up to relate to.A hen-pecked (惧内的) boss may feel like a seven-year-old when he's at home.But as he walks through the office door,and knows he's going to be surrounded by staff looking to him for advice,he grows into a fully mature man.And I think it's a mistake to imagine that we all feel,as we age,a kind of progression of states,from the baby to the adult.Most people feel,on Tuesday,about three years old,and on a Wednesday,around 80.I remember feeling very grown-up at eight,a time when I was weighed down with responsibility.These days,much older,I can,in the company of people I feel at ease with,feel like a young girl.
There's a common remark that"all men are little boys",but it's not true.It's more true that men often behave like little boys.But nearly all people,at some moments in their lives,are capable of great maturity.
Once your baby arrives,you'll soon feel less childlike,or rather,less often.When your child tries to put its fingers into the electric plug,the adult in you will rise up to prevent it.You'll see you have very little in common with a needy child,particularly if it's looking to you for comfort and support.
Comfort yourself,David,with two truths.One is that your friends laugh when they talk about this subject because they,like you,feel frightened.And remember that people who haven't grown up don't go around talking about the fact that they don't feel grown-up.
Hope my advice will be helpful and good luck to you and your little one.
Sincerely Yours,
Miss Advice
43.According to the passage,Miss Advice thinks David's self-doubtB
A.valuable     B.natural          C.unusual      D.bearable
44.From Paragraph 2,we can learn that people's sense of maturityC
A.will increase with age
B.is obviously seen at home
C.changes with different situations
D.becomes stronger with familiar people
45.Miss Advice holds thatC.
A.all men behave like little boys
B.people tend to laugh at the subject
C.men with a baby feel more grown-up
D.people enjoy talking about their immaturity
46.Miss Advice wrote the letter toB.
A.teach people how to grow up
B.offer suggestions to a future father
C.encourage people to be responsible
D.solve problems of the less grown-u.

14.Imagine having an idea,drawing it on paper,bringing it to a store and seeing it turned into a physical object.This is now possible with the help of 3D printers.Such machines were once used just by universities and big companies.But now,stores with 3D printing services are appearing around the United States.
    Bryan Jaycox and his wife opened The Build ShopLLC in Los Angeles two years ago.The store is filled with tools like a laser cutter,an industrial sewing machine and 3D printers.Bryan Jaycox requires 15an hour to print an object.He also charge safe depending on the size of the object and up to 50 an hour for design and labor services.
    The Jaycoxs also offer 3D printing classes for anyone who is interested.One of the students in a recent class was Ki Chong Tran.He plans to open a 3D printing business in Cambodia."The demand has been amazing.It's been much more than I would have imagined,"said Ki Chong Tran.
"I think 3D printing is going to be huge. It's going to make a huge impact on society as a whole,"he added.

    But Ki Chong Tran says even current technology can make a difference in a developing country like Cambodia."With 3D printing you can give them tools,and you put it in their hands so they are responsible more for their own development. They learn skills beyond just learning English and becoming a tour guide or something like that or working at a bank.You can actually create things that give value to the world,"said Ki Chong Tran.
