17、sth.或teach sth. to sb.的形式。3D(that/which)they would take是定语从句,修饰先行词the journey。take the journey是固定搭配,表示“去旅行”。4C根据but一词可推测作者虽然现在身为校长,可当年并不知未来如何。5D他不仅教育作者思考,而且以大量事例让作者“信服”。根据本句中的as much by example可知是举例让作者相信他的话。6A他不但用“话语”进行教育,还辅之以例证。此处与本句前面的taught相呼应。 7C这么做并且为“别人”服务是作者的道义责任,此处表示泛指“其他人”。A项表示特指以外的其他人,与所跟语
18、境不符;B项表示“每个人”,包括作者在内,显然不恰当;D项表示“任何人”,不符合语义。8A根据第10个空前面的our relationship changed可判断此项正确。后三项分别表示职位、形势、条件或状况,在文中都没有信息支持。9B几年后,作者被“任命”为系主席,此处name是动词,表示 “任命;提名”。A项表示 “指出”,如改为appointed也正确。10D第一段开头部分提到作者曾是Dr Offutt的学生,由前一句中的I worked for Dr Offutt可知作者是Dr Offutt的下属,而此处提到作者被提拔,由此可知二人之间的关系 “又”发生了改变。11D本句中间部分提到
19、作者以前的英语老师仍然在原岗位,所以作者认为管理这个系的工作极具“挑战”性。12C根据but一词可知Dr Offutt自始至终“支持”作者。下一句提供了暗示。13A上文提到作者很茫然,不知所措,由此可知他给作者提供“建议”。再根据后面give的宾语内容也可以判断此项正确。14D如果他当初让作者留在DeMatha,作者也许会这么做。“然而”他鼓励作者接受新的使命。15B本段第一句提到作者即将出任另一所学校的校长,由此可知这是一次“机会”。16B此处与第3个空后面的“Im the principal of the school now ”相呼应。17C上文提到作者遇到困难时他总是提供帮助和支持,由
20、此可判断C项正确。18D伟大的老师有“取之不尽的”课程资源财富。A、C两项有一定的干扰牲,但不能很好地与great相搭配。19B此处表示让步关系,表示“即使;纵然”,意思是说虽然学生还不知道,可作者早已明白。20A作者认为学生拥有良师无比“幸运”,因为作者依然是他们中的一员,有着切身体会。(二)【要点综述】 Bobby Moresco出身普通工人家庭,他想摆脱当建筑工人或警察的命运,希望能成为演员,并克服了种种困难为之奋斗了数十年,最后终于成了一位著名的剧作家。1B因为他出身普通工人家庭,按照父亲和周边伙伴们的发展轨迹,他也应该只能当建筑工人或警察,选择should表示推测,可译成“按理说应该
21、”。2C他想摆脱自己的宿命,或是想闯出来,选择out可表示这层意思。3DBobby从少年时期就开始演戏,但如同后来所知,他的演艺生涯一直不成功,因此此处可填good表示“不是一个好演员”。4A虽然不是一个好的演员他还是希望能改变自己的人生“做一些使生活变得不同的事情”。5C为了实现自己的夙愿,他去了好莱坞碰运气,“碰运气”可用meet(find) ones fortune表示,故此空选择fortune。6A短语make it,有“成功”之意。7D因为太想当一名演员,所以他自愿在一个表演单位做出租司机和服务员的工作。8B根据上下文的意思可知尽管他目前做的工作很辛苦,但他仍然执著于自己选择的事业,
22、chosen符合句意。9C由于弟弟被谋杀,他放弃了自己的工作(失业了),回到老地方,只有选择old才符合文意。10D这里的意思是他写了一部与他自己生活有关的戏剧,“与有关”可使用be related to表示,因此此处选择related。11C上文已经谈到他的弟弟被谋杀此处选择killing即指此事。12B这里是指好莱坞的一个制片人碰巧看到了这部戏,“碰巧”使用happen表示。2012二轮精品提分必练18B由于在此之前一直没有人赏识,因此他的电影是“悄悄地”被放映的,同时根据后面的quietly的排比手法也可选出答案。19C这里是指他一举成名,“一举成名”可用become an overnight success来表示。20A这里是指“考虑能使工作做好的方法”,选择way表示“方法”,manner使用单数时表示“方法,方式”,但manners是“礼貌,规矩”之意。其他选项都没有“方式,方法”的意思。
