52、Sometimes,by concentrating only on the cup,we _39_ to enjoy the coffeeValue the coffee,not the cups!”Dont let the cups _40_ youEnjoy the coffee instead【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。生活中我们常常会遇到这样的情况,明明喝的是咖啡却非常在意装咖啡的杯子,殊不知咖啡杯只是一个器具,杯中的咖啡才应该是真正的旨趣所在。21Ainformation BcomplaintsCsurprises DsatisfactionB解析:根据本句的“stress”
53、及下文第二段末句中的“problems and stress”可知,此处应该是抱怨生活和工作中的压力。22Afriends BcustomersCguests DfellowsC解析:根据第一段内容可知,学生们来看望教过自己的大学教授,对于教授来说这些学生就是客人。23Acarried BreturnedCarrived DbroughtB解析:因为前文提到要给学生们咖啡喝,那么教授去了厨房之后应该是又返回客厅。24Akind BsetCvariety DgroupC解析:从破折号的解释可看出,教授拿来许多不同的咖啡杯。如果选择A项则意为“一种杯子”,与下文的叙述相悖。a variety of
54、意为“各种各样的”,符合语境,故选C。25Adevote BexposeChelp DprovideC解析:help oneself to是固定搭配,意为“随便用(或吃)”。教授拿回不同的杯子和咖啡让学生自便,从而引出下文教授的评价与教导。26Aseen BdiscoveredCrecognized DnoticedD解析:教授拿出许多不同的咖啡杯,这是教授引起学生注意的方式,所以教授说:“你们都注意到了”。因此答案选D,noticed意为“注意,关注”。27Ataken in Btaken backCtaken out Dtaken upD解析:句意:价钱贵,样子又好看的杯子你们都用上了,放
55、在一旁的都是一些不好看的便宜货。take up意为“占用”,符合句意,故选D。take in意为“吸入”;take back意为“退回”;take out意为“切除,获得”。28Acheap BdearCpretty DfantasticA解析:此空所填词应该与plain构成并列关系,所以选择A项,另外cheap与本句中的“expensive”也是相对的。29Aif BwhileCbecause DsinceB解析:根据下文可知。“the best”和“problems and stress”形成对比,故此处应该选择表示转折意味的词语。while意为“虽然”,符合语意语境,故答案选B。30Ar
56、esource BsourceCresult DpointB解析:句意:虽然你只想给自己选择最好的,这是人之常情,但是这也正是你们的问题和压力的根源所在。根据句意可知,应选择B项,source意为“根源”。31Aincreases BexpandsCextends DaddsD解析:add to意为“增加”,即教授认为杯子本身不会增加咖啡的品质。故答案选D。increase一般表示具体数量上的增加;expand意为“扩大,增加,增强(尺码、数量或重要性)”;extend意为“使伸长,扩大,扩展”,均不符合题意,故排除。32AAt no time BIn most casesCIn no cas
57、e DAt timesB解析:in most cases意为“在大部分情况下”,与本句中的“in some cases”相呼应。33Adrink BdesireCeat DwantA解析:根据语境可知,此处指“我们所喝的咖啡”,what引导宾语从句,在从句中作宾语,指代咖啡。34Ahappily BstrangelyCconsciously DsurprisinglyC解析:选择咖啡杯是有意识地选择。35Asuspecting BenvyingCconsidering DeyeingD解析:自己已经选择了自认为是最好的杯子,选好之后还要打量别人的杯子。eye用作动词,意为“注视,审视,细看”,
58、符合语境。suspect一般不用于进行时,意为“怀疑”;envy意为“嫉妒”;consider意为“考虑”,均不符合语境。36Amoney BloveCfriendship DdeathA解析:本段讲述了教授开始做总结,将故事加以升华,挖掘出其深刻的寓意。与工作,社会地位能够并列的只能是钱财。37Aoffer BtakeClive DholdD解析:与and后面的“contain”是同义词,并且能够接宾语life的只有D项,hold意为“容纳”。38Aexchange BraiseCchange DcreateC解析:句意:我们使用的杯子的类型不能限定也改变不了我们的生活质量。根据上下文可知,
59、杯子并不能使杯中的咖啡发生任何改变,故C项符合语意语境。39Ahave BhesitateCforget DfailD解析:句意:有时候人们只关注盛咖啡的杯子,而没能品尝出咖啡的味道。言外之意是人们过于关注生活的外在表现形式,而忽略生活的真正内涵。fail to do sth意为“不能做某事”,符合语境。40Adefeat BdriveCdecide DpuzzleB解析:本句是全文的结束句,也是对全文的总结,即不要让杯子牵着你走,应该享受咖啡本身。drive此处表示“迫使,驱使”,符合语境,故选B。第二节(共10小题;每小题15分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内
