17、A解析根据该空前的“I had what most people would call a good life”可知,作者拥有人们所说的美好生活,因此应该有一份稳定的(stable)工作。temporary“暂时的”;difficult“困难的”;demanding“要求高的,苛求的”。2.A.ThusB.InsteadC.OtherwiseD.However答案D解析根据该空后的“I was bored”可知,作者的生活没有什么大问题,可是(However),作者很无聊。前后是转折关系。thus“于是,因此”;instead“代替,反而”;otherwise“否则;要不然”。3.A.easi
18、lyB.brightlyC.peacefullyD.modestly答案B解析根据“live.and loudly”可知,作者想要有希望地(brightly)华丽地生活。所填的词要与loudly(华丽地)并列。easily“容易地”;peacefully“平静地,安宁地”;modestly“谦虚地,审慎地”。4.A.proudB.innocentC.outgoingD.afraid答案D解析根据该空后的“I had never had any confidence in myself”可知,作者小时候是缺乏自信的,所以可能很害怕(afraid)。proud“自豪的”;innocent“无辜的,
19、无罪的”;outgoing“对人友好的,开朗的”。5.A.added toB.talked aboutC.got overD.suffered from答案C解析根据该空前的“I had never had any confidence in myself”可知,作者缺乏自信所以始终无法克服(got over)童年的羞怯。add to“增加,增添”;talk about“谈论,讨论”;suffer from“遭受”。6.A.continuedB.survivedC.failedD.helped答案D解析根据前面的“And I tried everything”以及前文可知,作者缺乏自信所以尝试
20、一切去克服,但它们都没有真正地有帮助(helped)。continue“继续”;survive“幸存”;fail“失败,没做”。7.A.figuredB.promisedC.predictedD.disagreed答案A解析根据该空后的“I signed up for an internship of teaching English in Vietnam”可知,作者觉得(figured)朝着目标小步走是不够的,所以决定报名参加在越南的实习教英语。promise“承诺”;predict“预测”;disagree“不同意”。8.A.equallyB.impossiblyC.unnecessari
21、lyD.occasionally答案B解析根据前文中的“I had never had any confidence in myself and never quite.that childhood shyness.”可知,作者是个非常害羞的人,现在要去越南教英语的确是一个不可思议(impossibly)的巨大的一步。equally“平等地”;unnecessarily“不必要地”;occasionally“偶尔”。9.A.niceB.colourfulC.strangeD.inadequate答案C解析根据空前的“I was alone in a country”,空后的“.and the
22、streets were unfamiliar”可知,这里是在讲在异国他乡的不便之处,陌生的环境,奇怪的(strange)饮食。nice“好的”; colourful“富有色彩的,鲜艳的”;inadequate“不充分的,不适当的”。10.A.doubtB.handleC.quitD.obtain答案B解析根据该空后的“everything”可知,作者不知道自己是否能处理(handle)陌生环境中的事情。doubt“怀疑”;quit“停止”;obtain“获得”。11.A.pointB.throwC.shoutD.aim答案B解析根据前文中的“were unfamiliar.everythin
23、g”可知,该处指作者不知是否能处理好陌生环境抛向自己的事情。point“表明,指向”;shout“呼喊,叫喊”; aim“瞄准,针对”。throw at sb意为“扔向某人,抛向某人”。12.A.trustB.enjoyC.excuseD.forgive答案A解析根据前面的“I had never had any confidence in myself and never quite that childhood shyness.”可知,作者以前对自己不自信,现在通过国外的实习,学会了相信(trust)自己。enjoy“享受”;excuse“原谅,为申辩,免除”;forgive“原谅,饶恕”
24、。13.A.unconcernedB.unsatisfiedC.unchangeableD.unrecognizable答案D解析根据该空前的“Id learnt to all of myself.”可知,作者出国实习之前不自信,恐惧害羞,而现在自信了,回到家时,变得让人不认识了,变化太大。unconcerned“不感兴趣的,不关心的”;unsatisfied“不满意的”;unchangeable“不可改变的”。14.A.fearB.respectC.courageD.anger答案A解析根据该空后的“that had controlled my life and the self-doubt
25、”可知,以前作者一直有恐惧,此处与自我怀疑并列的只有恐惧(fear)。respect“尊敬”;courage“勇气”;anger“生气”。15.A.picked upB.forgotten aboutC.worn awayD.put off答案C解析根据该空前的“.that had controlled my life and the self-doubt”可知,影响作者生活的恐惧和自我怀疑完全消失(worn away)了。pick up“拾起,习得”;forget about“遗忘”; put off“推迟”。.语法填空Beijing Opera or Peking Opera is a f

29、history,folklore,and,increasingly,contemporary life.答案与解析【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国的京剧,它结合了音乐、有声表演、哑剧表演、舞蹈、杂技多种表演形式,堪称中华文化的瑰宝。bining考查非谓语动词。根据谓语动词is可以判断空处的动词用非谓语形式;“京剧”与“结合”是主动关系,故填combining。2.arose考查动词时态。根据时间状语判断用一般过去时,故填arose。3.fully考查副词。修饰动词应该用副词形式,故填fully。4.the考查冠词。朝代是专有名词,前面要用定冠词表示特指,故填the。5.cultura
30、l考查形容词。修饰名词应该用形容词,故填cultural。6.preserved考查非谓语动词。根据后面的主语the art form可知,动词用非谓语形式,前后主语一致,“艺术形式”与“保留”是被动关系,故填preserved。7.Performers考查名词。根据句意和谓语动词use可知,主语要用名词复数形式,故填Performers。8.is evaluated考查动词时态和语态。京剧表演者的表演技巧是依靠表演动作的优美来评判的,所以用被动语态,故填is evaluated。9.into考查介词。be divided into意为“被分成”,故填into。10.whose/where考查定语从句。先行词是works,关系词在定语从句中作characters的定语,也可以理解为抽象的地点状语。故填whose/where。
