26、飞;脱下”。故选B。3选B句意:有人提醒经理不要错过15:20的航班,他匆忙出发去了机场。句子主语the manager与remind为逻辑上的被动关系,故排除A、C、D三项,因为这三项表主动,只有B项表被动。非谓语动词作状语,其逻辑主语要和句子主语保持一致。4选C由“决不可以让其他任何人知道”可知选C,mustnt表示“不允许;不可以”,语气强烈。5选D句意:“万一我们失败了,她会怎样呢?”“如果结果很糟糕的话,她会把责任推到我们身上。”turn out“结果(是);原来(是)”,符合句意。turn up“开大;出现”;turn down“关小;拒绝”;turn off“关掉”。6.选Bbe
27、lief“信任;信心;信仰”;custom“习惯;风俗”;strength“强项;长处;力量”;principle“法则;原则;原理”。根据句意选B。7选A句意:新任总统是否能减轻人们对越来越多的人将会失业的恐慌还有待观察。根据句意并分析句子成分可知,it为形式主语,第一空引导的主语从句是句子的真正主语,根据句意可知,应选whether;第二空引导的从句作the fear的同位语,且空处在同位语从句中不充当成分,故选that。8选Daward“授予;判定”;admire“赞美;钦佩;羡慕”;remind“提醒;使想起”;consult“咨询;请教;商量”。根据句意选D。9选C句意:“昨天我们在

31、来休息一下。8选A就在那时,“我”看到幸福(happiness)就在“我”身边。根据文章第一句中的“happiness”可知,A项正确。9选D当“我”努力工作(worked)来养家糊口时,当“我”和孩子们一起玩耍,听到他们的笑声(laughter)时,甚至当“我”生病(sick)妻子在身边照顾“我”时,幸福一直都在“我”身边。10选A参见上题解析。11选C参见9题解析。12选C“我”只是没有看到这些身边的幸福的智慧(wisdom)。13选B压力来自你对自己的期待,放松你会发现真实的自己。此处Relaxation“放松”和Tension“压力”对应,所以B项正确。14选B也许我们大家都应该停止追
