28、s in this world.”可知，我们总是避免不了听到和见到这个世界上存在的残缺。这些见闻每天都提醒着我们人类的脆弱。remind“提醒”；order“命令”；persuade“说服”；encourage“鼓励”2解析：选C联系空前的“we are more fragile”可知，此处是指人类比我们所愿意承认的更脆弱。admit“勉强承认”；conclude“得出结论”；expect“预料”；prove“证明”。3解析：选A由空前的“being broken”和空后的others可知，此处应填breaking。此处论述了我们每天都面临着被挫伤或挫伤别人。4解析：选B由下文的论述可知，此处
29、指我们在生活中都经历过某种形式的挫折，我们也知道其他人遭遇过挫折。experience“经历”；finish“完成”；start“开始”；create“创造”。5解析：选D联系上一句中的“a blessing in disguise”和空后的“the longterm”可知，对于有些人来说，遇到挫折就像塞翁失马，焉知非福，因此脆弱只是暂时的。temporarily“暂时地”；gradually“逐渐地”；slightly“轻微地”；finally“最后”。6解析：选C由空后的“increased strength”可知，此处是指长期效应是实力的增强。effect“效果”；condition“条
30、件”；design“设计”；course“课程”。7解析：选D根据常识可知实力增强自然会使他们成为更加优秀的人，故用better。8解析：选B由空前的“takes them down hard”和空后的selfdestructive判断，这里说明的是那些无法承受打击的人的情况。由此判断，他们遇到打击后会一蹶不振，逐渐脱离社会。withdraw“退出”；receive“收到”；suffer“遭受”；demand“要求”。9解析：选A由空后的“back to wholeness”判断，此处应用road，表示由残缺恢复到完满之路。road“路”；signal“信号”；state“状态”；level“
31、水平”。10解析：选C上一句说到，恢复的过程可能是积极的也可能是消极的，可能是痛苦的也可能是幸福的，可能是健康的也可能是不健康的。由此作者提出问题：那么这是否意味着从挫折中恢复过来的办法取决于我们遇到的挫折的类型呢？mean“意味着”；decide“决定”；follow“跟随”；report“报告”。11解析：选D联系上文的提问以及空后的“is no”可知，此处是指作者的回答。answer“回答”；thought“思想”；effect“效果”；advice“建议”。12解析：选A作者以曼德拉的经历为例论证自己的观点。因此判断，作者应该认为曼德拉是被错误地关押了27年。falsely“错误地”；
32、seriously“严肃地”；safely“安全地”；accidentally“偶然地”。13解析：选B因为曼德拉一生坎坷，他肯定在某个时候遭遇过某种形式的挫折，所以作者才会以他为例。face“面临，面对”；accept“接受”；predict“预测”；remember“记得”。14解析：选A根据上一句中的“today his life speaks of wholeness(现在他的人生堪称完满)”可知，作者认为他现在是一个完满的人。15解析：选B由空后的“with limbs missing(肢体残缺)”可知，此处应用war。很多从战场上退下来的士兵四肢有缺失，并且还遇到种种问题，但是，他
33、们并没有因此而失去生活的勇气。16解析：选C从战场上退下来的人，除了肢体的残缺外，应该还会遇到精神、社会和情感上的问题，因此此处用challenge合适。challenge“挑战”；conflict“冲突”；ability“能力”；test“测试”。17解析：选B根据上文可知，这些人的心灵上有创伤，故用heart。18解析：选D由上文的“but today theyre still whole”可知，他们并没有任由这种残缺继续下去，而是以健康的方式对待，拒绝让那些伤害他们的人或事使他们一蹶不振。refuse“拒绝”；choose“选择”；hesitate“犹豫”；pretend“假装”。19解
34、析：选A由上文可知，他们抚平了过去的创伤，不抛弃、不放弃，勇往直前。move on“继续前行”；light up“照亮，使变得喜悦”；give in“屈服”；stay on“继续停留”。20解析：选C联系上文和空后的“to survive any form of brokenness”可知，从任何形式的挫折中生存下来都是一场战斗。fight“战斗”；opportunity“机会”；opinion“意见”；disaster“灾难”。.语篇解读：本文是议论文。文章讨论了儿童是否该在电脑上花过多的时间。1解析：选D细节理解题。从第一段的“But, how much time should a kid
35、 spend with a device (设备) in their hands”可知，作者通过举例意在引出本文要讨论的话题。2解析：选A推理判断题。本段中作者通过举例想要表明家长应该采取措施来确保儿童合理安排使用电脑的时间。本段最后两句“But, that doesnt mean that we spent the entire day on the iPad. And thats the approach that a lot of parents have to take”很清楚地表明了这一点。3解析：选B作者态度题。由文中内容可以看出，作者不反对孩子使用iPad，只是建议家长适度监管，
36、由此可见他对此持宽容态度。4解析：选A标题归纳题。作者在第一段通过举例引出本文的主题儿童在电脑上花多少时间为宜？在列举了不同人的观点之后，作者谈了自己的看法。由此可以判断，A项可以准确地概括文章的主题。.语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。作为学生，怎样才能保持健康的饮食呢？本文给出了几种不同的观点。1解析：选E第一段首句讲的是要少吃多锻炼，空格前面讲了要控制饮食，所以空处应该与多锻炼有关。E项符合题意。2解析：选D第二段第一句提到要多摄入纤维素，D项介绍了纤维素的来源，符合此处语境。3解析：选F空前说作为一名学生生活是很苦的，空处应对该句进行具体说明。F项中的“study hard” “under stress”等信息与空前的“very difficult”相呼应，故选F。4解析：选A空前问的是“他们为什么发胖”，空后提到了他们的一些不良作息和饮食习惯，故空处填A。5解析：选B空前讲到你将会践行哪条建议，空后则说健康和体重对你的幸福和学习成绩都很重要，故B符合此处语境。
