14、实只要我们肯付出，我们的努力总会有回报的。1B 空后的birth, marriage or death都是我们一生中要发生的事件，因此用events。C、D有一定的干扰性，competition竞争； performance表演， 表现；因此可以排除。2C 后文有hard work，因此这里讲我们可以通过行动来改变一些事情。D有一定干扰性，goal意思是“目标”，因此可以排除。3B 联系下文if were walking on the path of positivity with great faith, well be paid off我们知道，作者认为只要我们付出了，就能得到回报。注意这
15、里的双重否定。4A 联系空后的will pay for 20 hours我们知道，是雇主付给工人20小时的工钱。5C 联系前后文我们知道，作者用前面的例子来推出后面的道理，因此用similarly。6D 联系后文的its better to keep trying to make something good happen rather than sitting still or crying.我们知道，作者认为，当一切都不奏效的时候，也要尽力让好的事情发生，而不是静坐或者哭泣。work在这里是“起作用、奏效”的意思。7A 联系下文的in a dark cave, one is not sup
16、posed to break the rock straight away我们知道，是“被困在”漆黑的山洞里面了。8D 联系前文的a dark cave以及后面的and air come in我们知道，作者认为，这个人应该在岩石上弄一个小洞，让阳光和空气进来。9B 从空前的Then efforts我们知道，在弄了一个小洞后，下一步的努力就是要粉碎掉岩石，因此用breaking。10A 本句中，no matter how引导了让步状语从句，显然，前面表达的是“不管问题有多么艰难，”。11B 从空后的and always struggling我们知道，一个人成功的秘密在于不放弃，一直奋斗。12D
17、联系空前的not in being the loser我们可以知道，此空和loser形成对比，故选D。(二)“不去冒险，就不会有损失。”这是平庸者的借口，这是无为者的巧言。还是这句话说得好：乌龟只有把脖于伸出来，才能得以前进。13B Dave Barry的父亲让他懂得了一个道理，这个道理仍然适用于(applies to)他现在的生活。14A联系此空后面的that they never venture beyond the familiar可知他们从不会去做自己不熟悉的事情， 这是因为他们害怕失败(fail)。15B 联系空后的in the cocoon我们知道，很多人被限制在保护层内。16A“
18、和遗憾比起来，安全更重要”的思想把许多人限制(trapped)在舒服的(comfortable)保护层内。17D 下文讲述的内容是Col. Robert Johnson敢于破除迷信而去吃wolf peach的故事，所以此处应该选story。18C根据下文中的to see Col. Johnson eat the “poisonous” peach可知他要吃(eat) a wolf peach。19A根据下文可知人们对wolf peach的荒诞的说法信以为真，所以对Col. Robert Johnson的做法感到费解(puzzled)。20D根据下文中提到的the “poisonous” peach说明人们认为这种东西是有毒的(poisonous)。21B survive the experience说明了他生存的艰难。22D根据句中“Nearly 2,000 people”和下文的意思可知人们聚集(crowded)到广场看他吃wolf peach。23A 联系全文以及结合生活常识可知，人们对wolf peach的说法是荒诞的，因此选A。24D此处用乌龟作比喻，乌龟只有把脖子伸出来才能得以前进(progress)。高考资源网独家高考资源网Ks5uK&S%5#U精品资源，欢迎下载！高考资源网Ks5uK&S%5#U高考资源网高考资源网高考资源网版权所有，侵权必究！
