四、完形填空(每空1分,共20分)
DINNER
It was the night before the composition was due. As I looked at the list of topics (题目) , "The Art of Eating Spaghetti (意大利面条) " caught my eye. The word "spaghetti" brought back the 36 memory of an evening at Uncle Alien' s in Belleville 37 when all of us were seated around the table and Aunt Pat 38 served spaghetti for supper. Spaghetti was an exotic treat in 39 those days. Never had I eaten spaghetti, and 40 none of the grown-ups had enough experience to be 41 good at it. What laughing 42 arguments we had about the 43 socially respectable method for moving spaghetti from plate to mouth. 44 Suddenly , I wanted to write about that, but I wanted to 45 put it down simply for my own 46 joy , not for Mr. Fleagle, my composition teacher. 47 As for him , I would write something else.
When I finished it the night was half gone and there was no 48 time left to write a proper composition for Mr. Fleagle. There was no choice next morning but to 49 hand in my work. Two days passed before Mr. Fleagle returned the 50 graded papers. He said, "Now, class, I want to read you a composition, "The Art of Eating Spaghetti'. "My words! He was reading my words out 51 loud to the whole class. 52 Somebody laughed, then the whole class was laughing with open-hearted enjoyment. I did my best not to show 53 pleasure , but what I was feeling was pure happiness, 54 for my words had the power to make people 55 laugh .
36 A. memory B. thought C. knowledge D. experience
37 A. when B. where C. since D. after
38 A. cooked B. served C. got D. made
39 A. their B. past C. last D. those
40 A. none B. one C. earns D. neither
41 A. careful about B. good at C. fond of D. interested in
42 A. speeches B. lessons C. sayings D. arguments
43 A. nearly B. naturally C. officially D. socially
44 A. Especially B. Probably C. Suddenly D. Fortunately
45 A. settle B. put C. bite D. let
46 A. work B. story C. luck D. joy
47 A. However B. Therefore C. As for him D. Except for that
48 A. time B. excuse C. way D. idea
49 A. give up B. continue C. hand in D. delay
50 A. written B. graded C. collected D. calmly
51 A. loud B. fast C. publicly D. calmly
52 A. People B. Nobody C. Somebody D. I
53 A. shock B. wonder C. worry D. pleasure
54 A. if B. for C. while D. although
55 A. excited B. satisfied C. think D. laugh
36. C。联系语境brought back以及在 Uncle Allen家吃饭,可推知此处谈的是“由spaghetti这个词使作者联想到了在 Uncle Allen家吃饭的情境”。
37. A。When 在句子中引导定语从句,修饰the memory of an evening中的evening。这里很容易误选where,因为Uncle Allen’s很容易被认为是先行词,但实际上evening才是定语从句修饰的对象,因为整个句子主要谈的就是发生在那个晚上的事。
38. B。前面的“我们都已在桌子周围坐好了。”以及后面的spaghetti for supper,可见是以spaghetti 做晚餐。“serve” 在此句中表达的意思是:“端上:摆出。”
39. D。in those days意思是“在那些日子里”,与前面的回忆过去在时间上相照应。同时我们只能说in the past / last days,所以B和C不能选。
40. C。既然是外来食品,不光作者从来没吃过意大利面条,别的任何人自然都没有吃过。
41. B。前面提到的experience只能与be good at构成逻辑联系,即“有足够的经验,从而擅长于吃和做意大利空心面”。careful about 是“小心的,谨慎的”的意思。fond of 是“喜欢的,喜爱的”意思。D选与题意不符。
42. D。argument本身含义是“论点”,在此处的意思是“理由”。
43. D。这里讲的是吃空心面的方法。这是一种饮食习惯,也是一种风俗,所以只能用社会性来描述。respectable 本意指“值得尊敬的”,这里表从未吃过而产生的敬畏之情。
44. A。由第一次吃这种面的新奇,从而忽然产生写作的冲动。
45. B。Put sth. down和take sth. down都有“把某事记下来”的意思,但前者往往可以用来表示记录下自己的思想,观点等,而take something down 通常指把客观存在的东西当作备忘录记下来,具有照抄下来的含义。
46. D。这里指作者是因为兴趣和高兴而写,而不是为完成作文而写。其余几项都逻辑不相符。
47. C。As for的意思是“至于”,是同义转折的一种常见表达方式。这里的him显然指的是上文提到的the composition teacher。
48. C。从When 引导的时间状语从句the night was half gone可知这里指的是时间不多了。
49. C。从前所提到的write a proper composition for Mr. Fleagle 和there was no choice next morning,说明指的是作者明天早晨得交作文。
50. B。Grade的意思是“评分”,这里是动词过去分词形式作定语,意思是批改了的作文。其余几项不合逻辑。
51. A。对全班学生朗读作文,通常老师的声音会很大,fast倒没必要,甚至不应该,所以B不对。而选项C和后文的the whole class 重复。
52. A。从后面的“全班学生都开心地笑了”,可知是有人先笑。又根据后文的“I did my best not to show …”可以肯定不是我笑的,而people泛指“人们”,不合语境。
53. D。从前面的My words! He was reading my words out loud,可知作者此时的心情是愉快的。
54. B。for是并列连词,在此处用来说明作者为什么会很高兴。
55. D。与前面的全班同学的笑声呼应。参见文中最后的一段内容。
Don't Take the Fun Out of Youth Sports
When I joined a private football league a few years ago, the sport meant everything to me. My coach said that I had lots of potential (潜力),, and I became captain of my 36 team . That was before all the fun was taken out of 37 playing .
At first, everyone on the team got 38 equal playing time. Then the team moved up to the top division after winning all its games, and the 39 pressure started. Some parents, who had paid the coach extra money so their daughters could have 40 private one-on-one training, got angry when she didn't give them more playing time in our 41 matches . The coach was replaced.
The new coach, however, took all the fun out of the game: All we did during practice was 42 run . I always wished to God that it would rain so we would not have the 43 training . Of course, all teams run drills; they are 44 necessary . But we ran so much that, afterwards, we had trouble 45 breathing . Younger people shouldn't be doing exercises 46 intended for 18-year-olds.
I was very thin 47 before I started football, but as a member of this team I wouldn't eat much, because I was afraid of being too 48 full to run. I feared making mistakes, and the added pressure caused me to make more than my usual 49share .
Is all this pressure necessary ? I 50ended up leaving the football team. Four other girls did the same, and two of them stopped playing football completely. That's 51sad , because they had so much potential. They were just burned-out with all the pressure they 52felt from the coach or their parents.
I continued playing football at school and 53rediscovered my love for it. I joined a private team coached by my school coach. When I started playing 54 for him, he told me I needed to relax because I looked nervous. After I 55calmed down, I played better. When you enjoy something, it's a lot easier to do it well.

40.A.free B.private C.good D.basic
解析 家长给教练额外送钱是为了他们的女儿可以得到教练非公开的一对一的训练。
答案 B
41.A.matches B.courses
C.lessons D.programmes
解析 首先要弄清本句的主句部分,即首先排除由who引导的定语从句对主句理解的干扰。当贿赂教练的家长见到教练没有给自己的孩子较多的比赛机会时就生气了。match指(球类)比赛。B、C两项是“课程”的意思。D项是“节目,程序”的意思。
答案 A
42A.jump B.play C.run D.shoot
解析 作者希望下雨,目的是他们可以不做那种训练,即跑步训练。根据本句意思,显然C项为最佳答案。
答案 C
43A.duty B.meeting C.operation D.training
解析 句意:如果下雨的话,我们就不会再训练。
答案 D
44A.necessary B.boring C.scientific D.practical
解析 这里作者承认:所有的(足球)队员都要做跑步训练,所以作者认为跑步训练是“必要的”,但不能只是跑步训练。

45A.speaking B.moving C.sleeping D.breathing
解析 由于教练只让队员做跑步训练,导致这些队员喘不过气来。
答案 D
46A.used B.intended C.made D.described

解析 根据上句“I wouldn’t eat much”可以判断作者不愿吃得太多是因为吃得太饱可能会跑不起来。
答案 A
49A.size B.share C.space D.state
解析 size 大小;share(属于某人应该做的)一份;space空间、太空;state状态。作者怕犯错误,而增加的压力又使她比应犯的错误要多。
答案 B
50A.gave B.kept C.ended D.picked
解析 由于有了那些没有必要的心理压力,作者只得离开足球队。end up doing sth.以……告终,其他选项很显然与题意不符。
答案 C
51A.sad B.shameful C.silly D.serious
解析 另外四个选手也相继离开了足球队,并且有两个彻底告别了足球。她们也很有潜力,这自然是一件令人伤心的事。
答案 A
52A.received B.suffered C.brought D.felt
解析 根据定语从句的语法知识,排除B项。本句中的they指那些退出足球队的队员,C项brought是“带来”的意思,在逻辑意义上不通,故也要排除;而先行词是pressure“压力”是一种心理行为,所以felt要优于received,所以D项为最佳答案。
答案 D
53A.reconsidered B.rediscovered C.reformed D.replaced
解析 由于作者继续在校园里踢足球,且过去也曾由于心理压力对足球失去兴趣,所以又爱上足球应为“rediscovered my love for it”。
答案 B
54A.at B.by C.for D.around
解析 play at sb.“扮演、装某人”。句意为“当我为他踢足球的时候,……”。
答案 C
55A.fell B.stepped C.slowed D.calmed
解析 因为作者开始看上去紧张,教练告诉她放松,放松后,她踢得更好了。calm down意为“镇定下来”。
答案 D

你有没有发现早晨起床如此困难以至于很痛苦?这也许被叫做懒惰,但是克莱特曼博士却有新的解释。他证明每个人都有日常的能量周期。
在你劳动的时间,通过你的工作,你可能会说你很“热”。这是对的。在一天中,当你感觉最有活力时,就是你的体温周期处于高峰时。对于有些人来说,高峰期会在正午时到来。对于其他人则在下午或晚上到来。没有人发现为什么会是这样,但它会带来这样熟悉的独白:“起来,约翰!你上班会再次迟到的!”对这个困扰可能的解释是,约翰的温度和能量高峰期是在晚上。在夫妻了解这些能量周期意味着什么、每个家庭成员有怎样的周期时,很多家庭停止争吵。
你不能改变你的能量周期,但你可以学着让自己的生活更好地适应它。克莱特曼博士认为,习惯有所帮助。也许你在晚上很困倦,但觉得无论如何也要熬夜。习惯性熬夜到深夜而非你所情愿一定程度上会抵消你的周期。如果早晨你的精力较差,但你有一天中早早要做的重要的工作,就早于平时的时间起床。这不会改变你的周期,但你将迅速起床并在精力不佳时做好工作。
在保持精力的缓慢状态下停止工作。从容地打着呵欠、伸着懒腰起床。在脚踩上地板前坐在床沿一分钟。避免麻烦地寻找头天晚上拿出的干净衣服。只要有可能,下午做日常工作,把需要精力和注意力的工作放在你思维敏捷的时间做。
Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make you life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr.Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning, but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.

Most great inventors in the capitalist society meet with much opposition to their inventions from the people who place their own interests before those of the people. Big monopolies try to buy inventions and turn them to their own profits. When they fail, they resort to other tricks. Inventors have to overcome thousands of difficulties put in their path before they can see their dreams realized.
在资本主义社会里大多数伟大的发明家都遭到很多反对势力的阻挠,这些反对的人都是以自我利益为中心的。大的金融寡头们试图买断发明来谋取自身利益。但他们失败的时候,又会使出其他诡计。发明家想要看到自己的梦想实现,就必须克服途中数以千计的困难。
When George Stephenson was experimenting with the stream engine, there was much opposition from the Parliament, the newspaper, and landlords. They claimed that the noise and the smoke would kill cows, horses and sheep, that the engine would burst or that hot coals from it would set fire to their houses.
当乔治.斯蒂芬试验蒸汽机的时候,国会、报纸、地主们都极力反对。他们抱怨蒸汽机的噪音和废气会将牛、马、羊致死,还谣言说机器会爆炸,要么就是机器烧过的热媒会将他们的房子烧着。
So it was a very difficult matter for George Stephenson to persuade the people that trains could go on smooth rails, could pull carriages and wagons full of people and goods, and that there was no great danger of accidents.
即使火车可以在平滑的轨道上行驶,可以拉装满货物还有人的车厢,还有极低的意外事故风险,但是无论乔治.斯蒂芬还是很难说服那些反对人们。
However, he was able to do it, and the first train driven by Stephenson himself showed that the newly invented steam engine was a complete success.

As a young girl, Elizabeth Barrett (Browning英国作家勃朗宁) ruptured a blood vessel on the lungs which did not heal. The physician consigned her to a milder climate for the winter and she went Devonshire for restoration. Among the members of her family who accompanied her to those healing shores was her eldest brother.For a whole year they lived side by side in affectionate companionship, she all the while being greatly benefited by mild sea breezes of Torquay.
当伊丽莎白•芭蕾特•勃朗宁还是个小女孩的时候,割掉了肺部一个坏掉的血管,医生告诉她要到气候温和的地方修养,她去了Devonshire ,和她一起去的还有她的哥哥,他们一起渡过了温馨和睦亲密无间的一年,温和的海洋性气候让她得到了很好的恢复。
One summer morning her brother went board a small sailboat with two friends for a trip of several hours around the coast. Just as the vessel came in sight of the window where Miss Barrett sat watching, the boat struck a sunken reef; and all who were in it went down and perished in the sea, before assistant could be rendered. None of the bodies were ever found although the whole village, full of sympathy, assembled in search. This was the tragedy which utterly prostrated for some years afterwards the health and soul of Elizabeth Barrett. Somehow she felt that she herself had in some measure been the cause of all this horror, and she suffered accordingly. Her whole being seemed shattered, and a year longer elapsed before, she was able to be more to London. This fatal event, which so saddened her youth gave also a still deeper devotional feeling to hue of sorrow so apparent in many of her earlier pieces.
一个夏天的早上,芭蕾特的哥哥和2个朋友开始了一段几个小时的帆船环岛之旅,当他们的船正好行驶到坐在窗前的芭蕾特的视野中时,突然撞在了暗礁上,她的哥哥及两个朋友都掉到了海里淹死了,尽管附近的村民们出于同情也加入了搜救,但还是没有找到一具尸体,这场悲剧完全击垮了芭蕾特,都仍是对她身心的重创,甚至她感觉在这整个灾难中,她自己也有一些原因,因此她自身深受折磨,一年过去了,她才回到伦敦,这次致命的打击,对她幼小心灵是个极大的创伤,以致她的整个早期的作品都充满了悲伤。
英译中的要点:言简意赅,不要全部直译,因为中文和英文有很多的语法使用上的差异,完全平铺直译只会让文章更加混乱。希望能帮到你!

Television ,the modern wonder of electronics, brings the world into your own home in sight and sound,1. And the word "television" means "seeing far".
电视—电子学上调制解调器带来的奇迹,使我们在自己家中可以看到和听到外面世界。而“电视”这个词是指看得远。
Television works in much the same way as radio. In radio, sound is changed into electromagnetic (invisible light) waves which are sent through the air. Experiments leading to modern television took place more than a hundred years ago. By the 1920s inventors and researchers had turned the early theories into working models.Yet it took another thirty years for TV to become an industry.
电视和收音机的工作原理是一样的。在广播电台,声音被转换成可通过空气发送的电磁波。关于现代电视的实验研究开始于一百多年前。到了20世纪20年代,发明家和研究人员开始利用早期的理论来制造模型。又过了三十年才开始电视的工业生产。
The influence of TV on the life of people is incalculable: it can influence their thoughts and their way of life. It can also add to their store of knowledge. Educational TV stations offer teaching in various subjects. Some hospitals use TV for medical students to get close-up views of operations. At first television programs were broadcast in black-and -white. With the development of science and technology, the problem of how to telecast them in full color was solved and by the middle 1960s the national networks were broadcasting most of their programs in color.
电视对人民生活的影响是无法估量的:可以影响人们的思想和生活方式,也可增加人们的知识量。教育电视台可提供各个学科的知识。有些医院利用电视让医学生可以近距离观看到手术操作。早期的电视节目是黑白的。随着科学技术的发展,如何播出彩色节目这个问题得到解决。到20世纪60年代中期播出的电视节目大部分都是彩色的了。
The programs that people watch are not only local and national ones. Since the launching of the first communications satellite, more and more programs are telecast "live" from all over the world. People in San Francisco were able to watch the 19 Olympic Games in Tokyo. And live telecasts now come from outer space. In 1969, the first astronauts to land on the moon televised their historic "moon walk" to viewers on the earth. Since then, astronauts have regularly sent telecast to the earth.
人们看到的电视节目不仅是当地的和国内的了。第一颗通信卫星发射以后,人们可以看到越来越多的世界各地的直播节目。在旧金山的人们能够观看到在东京举行的19年的奥运会。现在可以看到来自外层空间的直播节目了。1969年,地球上的观众可以看到宇航员第一次登月并行历史性的“月亮行走”的电视直播。此后,宇航员已可定期向地球传送电视信号。

The seriously depressed person sees himself in a very negative way. He is sure that he is alone and hopeless. He often blames himself for ordinary faults and shortcomings which he exaggerates. He is very discouraged about himself, the world, and his future. He becomes less interested in what is going on around him and doesn't get satisfaction from things he used to enjoy. Fatigue and early morning sleeplessness are quite common. The depressed person may want to sleep more than usual. He may lose his appetite and lose weight, or eat more than normally and gain weight. Another particular sign, seen in women, is crying spells. Many of these spells are short and common.
严重忧郁的人通常都会很消极地看待自己。他确信自己是孤独无望的。他经常责备自己所犯的错误和自己将其夸大的缺点,对自己对世界,对将来毫无信心,开始对自己身边的事情缺乏兴趣并对自己之前说乐于从事的事情感到不满。疲劳以及凌晨的失眠对于他们来说见怪不怪。抑郁的人通常想要更多的睡眠,他可能会没有食欲而导致体重下降,或者因为吃太多而导致体重增加。还有一个很明显的迹象就是抱怨,通常在女性身上看得到的,而大部分这样的抱怨都是很简短而平常的。
Depressives share the feeling that they have lost something very important to them, though often this is not really the case. From a feeling of loss, the depressed person progresses to false ideas that he is a loser and will always be a loser, that he must be worthless and perhaps not fit to live. He may even attempt suicide.
忧郁是当人们失去对于自身来说很重要的东西的时候说产生的一种情感,尽管那些东西根本不算什么。由于这样一种失落感,忧郁的人们会错误的认为自己是一个失败者而且将永远是个失败者,认为自己是没有意义的或许不适合活在人世。这样的人可能会尝试自杀行为。
So many very depressed people attempt suicide that depressive illness may be considered the only fatal mental illness. Not all those suffering from depressive illness do attempt suicide. But the relationship is striking. It is estimated that as many as 75 percent of those who attempt suicide are seriously depressed. Other studies show that the person hospitalized for depression is about 36 times more likely to commit suicide than is the non-depressed person. The greatest risk occurs during or immediately after hospitalization. After age 40, the possibility of suicide increases in very depressed person. Almost twice as many women as men suffer from depressive illness. Almost twice as many women as men attempt suicide, but three times more men than women succeed.
很多的忧郁的人企图自杀表明忧郁症是最危险的精神病。并不是说所有精神病患者都企图自杀,但是这个因果关系是引人注目的,据预测,有75%患抑郁症的人因为严重忧郁而企图自杀。另外有研究表明,抑郁症患者比正常人想要自杀的可能次数多出36. 这样冒险的事情经常是发生在住院治疗期间或者住院治疗的初始阶段。年过40岁抑郁的人自杀可能性更大。女人患有抑郁的可能性以及因为抑郁而自杀的可能性均比男人的高两倍,但是男人自杀的成功率是女人的3倍。

It was not yet eleven o'clock when a boat crossed the river with a single passenger who had obtained his transportation at that unusual hour by promising an extra fare. While the youth stood on the landing-place searching in his pocket for money, the ferryman lifted a lantern, by the aid of which, together with the newly risen moon, he took a very accurate survey of the stranger's figure.
时间还不到十一点,一艘只载着一位客人的小船驶过了小河.在答应多付些船费后,这位客人才能在这个不平常的时间里找到渡船.当那个站在岸头的年轻人在兜里掏钱时,船夫借着月色,点亮一个灯笼,仔细打量着这个陌生人.
He was a young man of barely eighteen years, evidently country bred, and now, as it seemed, on his first visit to town. He was wearing a tough gray coat, which was in good shape, but which had seen many winters before this one.
他是个不到18岁的年轻人,在乡村长大,似乎这次是他第一次进城.他穿着一件粗糙的灰色外套,样式挺好看的,不过看似年代久远.
The garments under his coat were well constructed of leather, and fitted tightly to a pair of muscular legs; his stockings of blue yarn must have been the work of a mother or sister, and on his head was a three-cornered hat, which in its better days had perhaps sheltered the grayer head of the lad's father.
外套下是一件缝得很好的皮衣,蓝色纱质袜子(似乎出自母亲或姐姐之手)将他结实的大腿紧紧地包裹着.他头上戴着一顶三角帽,看起来这顶帽子曾经为他的父亲遮挡过风雪.
In his left hand was a walking stick, and his equipment was completed by a leather bag not so abundantly stocked as to inconvenience the strong shoulders on which it hung. Brown, curly hair, well-shaped features, bright, cheerful eyes were nature's gifts, and worth all that art could have done for his adornment.
他的左手握着一只手杖,他所有的装备都装在一个不算大的皮箱里,使他能够方便地扛在肩上.褐色卷曲的头发,明亮愉快的眼睛,这些自然的馈赠抵得过所有的装饰品.
The youth, whose name was Robin, paid the boatman, and then walked forward into the town with a light step, as if he had not already traveled more than thirty miles that day. As he walked, he surveyed his surroundings as eagerly as if he were entering London or Madrid, instead of the little metropolis of a New England colony.
这个名叫罗宾的年轻人将船费付给了船夫,然后迈着轻快的步伐向着市里走去了,好像他并非跋涉了三十多里才到这儿似的.他一边走一边侥有兴趣地打探着周围的一切,仿佛他不是踏入了新英格兰殖民地的一个小城市,而是初次去到了伦敦或马德里.

“I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville. "I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville. As I got onto Highway 40, blue lights and sirens going, I fell in behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway. The driver somehow panicked at the sight of me. He was going more than a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder. "

But Hyde couldn't go after him. Taking care of injured people is always more important than worrying about speeders, so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident. But he did try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove, hoping another nearby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car. As it turned out, keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult. Every turn the Pontiac made was the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene.

Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination. At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene. His help wasn't needed. Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the Firebird, who by this time had developed something new to panic about.

“当我将他逮捕,我问他为什么运行。 He told me he didn't have a driver's license(执照).他告诉我,他没有驾驶执照(执照)。 ” ”
That accident cost the driver of the Firebird plenty-a thousand dollars for the new engine-not to mention the charges for driving without a license, attempting to run away, and dangerous driving.
