解答 CGFAB
56.答案:C,考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力.由文中They tell us what is right or wrong,good or bad..It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to the feelings of others.可知他们教我们分辨好坏,只有在我们结婚以后有了孩子才能理解他们的感受,可以推理出我们当时并不懂父母的感受,我们认为那是理所当然的,所以C正确.
57.答案:G,考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力.由后文提到了No mind is happy without peace.可知G正确.
58.答案:F,考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力.由前文Failure and Success可知后文写的应是失败与成功之间的关系,所以选F.
59.答案:A,考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力.由前后文Hope builds in patience,because after every night there is a day可知,希望是建立在耐心的基础上的,因为明天又是新的一天,可以推理出此处应是生活教会我们即使在最黑暗的日子也不要绝望,所以选A.
60.答案:B,根据后一句so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.可知明天是未知的,不管会发生什么,我们唯一能做的就是今天好好努力,才能拥有一个更好的明天,所以选B.
