16、osite to Steve in the studio while spectators outside pressed their noses against the windows to get a glance.Countless people told me this day wasnt possible；they said real authors werent 15yearold and that my story wasnt good enough. I knew that I could only rely on one person to make this happen:
17、 me. Selfpublishing was a great option to make my book a reality in a world that doubted my abilities.After two months of reading, writing and revising the manuscript, it was finally ready for publication. I remember coming home from school and seeing a brown box on the kitchen table. I tore open th
18、e box to see five copies of my finished book. Thick staples(订书钉) had held together the stories I used to create when I was three, and that day began my official journey as an author but I hungered for more than just a published book.I didnt have an agent.

I was interviewed on two, but when I found out that I would be on WGN, I was at a loss for words.Like the homemade books created with crayons(蜡
20、笔) and pencils that turned into professional pieces of art, I came out of my box the same day my books did. I changed from a shy, terrified girl filled with dreams to an outgoing, confident young lady who made her dreams a reality. “Are you ready to go on? ” Steve asked. I smiled and said, “Yes, I a

23、for the coming interviewDwell ready for the coming interview课时作业(二).1.millionaire2.reunited3.reforming4.resist5vice6.violence7.vain8.characteristic9antique10.generosity.1.B考查否定词与形容词比较级连用表示最高级的用法。句意：你的四川之行怎么样？再好不过了。否定词加比较级往往表示最高级的概念。2B考查非谓语动词。句意：律师专注地倾听着，努力不错过任何要点。句中现在分词作伴随状语。trying not.努力不；not tryin
24、g不努力做。3C考查词义辨析。句意：听到老师吓唬放学后不让他们回家，学生们马上安静下来了。 threat威胁，恐吓，吓唬；danger危险；warn警告，是动词，其名词形式是warning；saying谚语，格言。4B考查动词辨析。句意：她太胖了，可她抵不住甜食的诱惑。resist抵抗，抵制；remove去掉；reject拒绝；object反对。5C考查动词辨析。句意：在他们的帮助下，小偷彻底改过自新，成了一个好青年。reform改过自新；inform通知；understand理解；exchange交换。6D考查非谓语动词。句意：如果你在国外的城市里迷路了，你最好待在原地等待你的朋友。get
25、lost迷路。get及物动词的过去分词形式也可构成被动语态。故选D。7B句意：别着急，很快你就能摆脱目前的困境了。far from 远不是；free from免受，使摆脱；apart from除之外；away from 离，远离。根据句意答案为B项。8A考查of抽象名词。句意：孩子们需要和他们同龄的朋友玩。of their own age是of抽象名词作friends的定语。9B此处 nothing指物，什么都不是；none既可指人也可指物，强调“每一个”；no one只能指人；neither表两者都不，故此题选B。10A此处I dont mind我不介意； Im sure我确信；No pro
26、blem 没问题；Go ahead继续做。句意：你想要这些中的那一个？我不在乎。任何一个都行。11C句意：直到他们结婚多年后，他们才有孩子。only if只要就；even if 即使；not until直到才；if only要是多好。又因not until 引导的从句放于句首，主句要用倒装语序。故选C。12Aappeal to“吸引”；belong to“属于”；refer to“提到，涉及”；occur to“突然想到”。句意：他的演唱并不怎么吸引我。13C从前面的although引导的让步状语从句表达的意思“虽然罗斯玛丽遭受了多年的病痛”可知后半句应表达出她丝毫没有失去对生活的热情，故可排
27、除A项和D项；B项neither表示两者都不，不合语境；C项none(与of连用)用于复数名词前时表示“(三者或三者以上的人或物)都不”，用于不可数名词前时表示“都不，一点也不”，所以she lost none of her enthusiasm for life，也就是一点也没有失去对生活的热情，故C项正确。句意：“虽然罗斯玛丽遭受病痛这么多年，但她一点也没失去对生活的热情。”14A句意：女孩不知道上哪一所大学，就向老师寻求建议。句子主语the girl和动词know之间是主谓关系，所以应该用动词ing形式作状语，而动词ing形式的否定式是在其前加not，所以选A，从而排除B和表示动宾关系的
28、C和D。15C句意：她什么都不懂，她也不设法去弄懂。nor用于否定句句首时，句子需要用部分倒装，表示后者的情况和前者一样，根据句中had she可知选C。.【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章围绕主题“美国梦”讲述了作者的心理变化，作者遭遇了一系列的不幸后，在乡村的经历和体验让他对“美国梦”有了不同于以往的更为深刻的理解。1A根据该句话的语境“跟其他所有人一样我想实现美国梦并且为此努力工作，我们所有人各自奋斗，目标相同”可知，应选separately“各自地，分别地”。equally相等地，平等地；violently激烈地；naturally自然地。2B由本空前的“through a s
29、eries of unhappy events”可知，作者经历了一系列的不幸之后，梦想破碎了。故应选fall apart崩溃，破碎。fall off减少，跌落，变坏；fall over被绊倒，意外地从上跌落；fall out争吵，脱落，解散。3D此处语境为：穷困潦倒时，作者只好到乡村找了一个便宜的居所。此处搭配为search.for.“在搜索”。其余选项均不符合语境。4D由“I had my truck and $56.”可知作者已经到了几乎身无分文的地步，带着身上仅有的56美元，作者只能以尽可能便宜的价格租下住所，故用cheapest。5C此处语境为：作者找到了一座破旧的可以租赁的房子，位于
30、西弗吉尼亚州的波托马克河对岸，沿着蜿蜒的山路向上四英里处。over在此处意为“在的另一边”，又如：They live over the river in Richmond.他们住在河对面的里士满区。6B由“a shabby house”“full of broken glass and rubbish”可知这是一座破旧的房子，到处都是玻璃碎片和垃圾，由此推测这里已被“遗弃”多时。abandoned“被放弃的，被遗弃的”，符合题意。occupied已占用的，在使用的；emptied被清空的；robbed被抢劫的。7C作者找到房主租下房子后，必须先进行清理之后才能“camp in”，所以此空填cl
31、eared，即作者先“清理”了一个角落。turn旋转，使改变方向；approach接近，走近，靠近；cut剪切，切成。这三项均与语境不符。8A句意：尽管当地人对我一无所知，但是慢慢地，他们开始教我很显然前后是一种转折关系，故用but。although尽管，虽然，它的位置应该放在“The locals knew nothing about me.”之前；otherwise否则，不然；for因为，由于。9D此处语境为：他们开始教我与邻居们相处的艺术。art艺术，技能，符合题意。benefit利益，好处；lesson教训，经验；nature自然，天性。这三项均与语境不符。10A本题考查动词短语的意义
32、辨析。stick around逗留，停留；look around环视周围；swing around使转过；turn around(使)转身；(使)好转。此处语境为：邻居们开始在此逗留与我聊天，故选A项。11C文章第一段讲到了作者起初理解的美国梦是工作、按揭、信用卡和成功，而由空格后的“.not the one of individual achievement but of.”可知，现在信仰的是一个“不同的”美国梦，故选different。wild野生的，野蛮的，狂野的；real真实的；remote偏僻的，遥远的。12A本段前面讲到邻居们教作者做邻居的艺术，给他提供了很多帮助，由此可知选nei
33、ghborliness“友善，睦邻友好”，侧重指邻里关系。其余三项分别意为“幸福”“友好，亲切”“仁慈，好意”。13D根据第一段所描述的美国梦的内容“a job，a mortgage(按揭)，credit cards，success”可知，作者原来认为这些东西是文明生活所必需的，故选necessary。unique独特的；expensive昂贵的；rare稀少的。这三项均不符合语境。14A由第二段中“I came upon a shabby house four miles up a winding mountain road.”可知房子在山上，故选up。15B句意：在这座山上，我最珍贵的财产
34、是我和邻居们的关系(relationships)。cooperation合作；satisfaction满意；appointment约会。这三项均不符合语境。16C解答该题的依据是第二段中的“I _3_ the countryside for some place.”及本段的“Four years later，I moved back into.”。与countryside相对的是town，故选C。reality现实；society社会；life生活。这三项均不符合语境。17B该空前的“many people were having a really hard time”说明许多人正过着相当艰难
35、的生活，可推测是“失去”了工作和家，故选losing。create创造；offer提供，明显不符合语境；quit只能和jobs搭配，不能和homes搭配。18C本题考查对四个动词短语的意思的理解。put in放进，提交，申请；turn in上交，拐入，告发；take in让进入，接受，理解，欺骗；get in进入，收获，被录取。此处说作者设法租了一个足够大的房子能让一些人住进来，因此选C。get in是指人主动进入，不符合语境。19B此处语境为：如果我们不团结在一起，我们就都会流落到住收容所(shelters)的地步。yard庭院；camp帐篷；cottage小屋，村舍。这三项均不符合语境。2
36、0D此处语境为：与其说美国梦在于自己能得到什么，不如说它在于我们所有人如何一起渡过难关。get by勉强度日，为固定搭配。about后面的从句不缺主语、宾语和表语，因此不选what；也没有“是否”(whether)的意思；也没有涉及时间(when)问题，因此只能选how。.1.A细节理解题。根据文章开头“Dont be nervous. Its only a few thousand listeners”可知Steve Cochran的话语给作者带来了一些鼓励。2C细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“I knew that I could only rely on one person to mak
37、e this happen: me.”可知，作者认为成功取决于自己。3B推理判断题。根据第二段首句可知作者15岁；根据第三段最后一句可知作者在3岁的时候开始写作，故作者用了12年的时间才完成了这本书。4C推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“I was interviewed on two, but when I found out that I would be on WGN, I was at a loss for words.”可知， 在WGN是作者第三次接受电台采访，正确答案为C。5D细节理解题。根据最后一段中“I changed from a shy, terrified girl filled with dreams to an outgoing, confident young lady who made her dreams a reality.”可知，作者变得外向和自信，根据最后作者的回答“Yes, I am.”可知，作者已经对即将开始的采访做好了准备。
