Life in the future李仕才一、阅读理解。Its an annual argument. Do we or do we not go on holiday? My wife says no because we have no savings to save us. I say you only live once and we work hard and whats the point if you cant go on holiday. The joy of a recession (不景气) means no argument next year we just wont go.Since money is known to be one of the things most likely to bring a relationship to its knees, we should be grateful. For many families the recession means more than not booking a holiday. A YouGov survey of 2,000 people found 22% said they were arguing more with their partners because of concerns about money. A recent research shows arguments about money were especially damaging to couples.Kim Stephenson, an occupational psychologist, believes money may be different things to men and women. People can say the same things about money but have different ideas of what its for, he explains. Theyll say its to save, to spend, for security, for freedom, to show someone you love them. He says men are more likely to see money as a way of buying status and of showing their parents that theyve achieved something. The biggest problem is that couples assume each other know whats going on with their finances, but they dont. There seems to be more of a taboo (禁忌) about talking about money than about death. But you both need to know what youre doing, whos paying what into the joint account and how much you keep separately. In a healthy relationship, you dont have to agree about money, but you have to talk about it.1. What does the author say about going on holiday in Paragraph 1?A. It will cost them too much money.B.

Terrible”可知，七岁时，“我”妹妹的小提琴演奏得糟糕透了(awful)，故C项正确。A项意为“迅速发展的”，B项意为“令人愉快的”，D项意为“有力量的”，都与语境不符。20A根据本句中的“and knew how far she had come, despite”并结合上文可知，“我”想起了妹妹七岁时演奏小提琴的糟糕的声音，只有“我”知道她不顾一切(everything)走了多远。四、单句改错1Despite his lack experience, he got the job._答案：lack后加oflack of. “缺少；的缺乏”，该短语中lack为名词，常与of连用。2As far as I know, the government will speed the pace of our economic reform._答案：speed后加upspeed up “加速”。3Giving another hour, I can also work out this problem._答案：GivingGivengive与I之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，故应用过去分词作状语，表被动意义。4The place was so crowded and we soon lose sight of him._答案：loselostand连接两个并列的简单句，由前一句中的was可知，后一分句应用一般过去时。5At sight of the snake, the girl burst into tears._答案：sight前加theat the sight of “一看见”。五、七选五根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。(2018广东汕头普通高中毕业班教学质量监测)Heres a surprising truthone of the most powerful weapons to enhance your life is your own tongue!_1_ Concentrate on the qualities of other people that you can affirm instead of on their faults.This alone should do wonders in relieving stress in your relationships.Doctors know that prolonged anxiety harms you，but encouraging words can remove stress and a peaceful mind leads to improve physical health，too._2_Avoid fueling verbal fire.When someone starts to blow up all at you，be careful about your response.Why burn your relationship house down with your own mouth？Try spraying water on an argument with calm words instead of using a flamethrower.How many marriages have been destroyed when in a fit of anger people spew out hurtful accusations to one another that are never forgotten！_3_ “A soft answer turns away wrath(狂怒)，but a harsh word stirs up anger.”Stop complaining.We all know people who complain all the time，especially about the fault of others._4_ Nothing is ever going well for them，and probably nothing ever willas long as they keep complaining and putting their energy on what they really dont want.Do think before you speak._5_ It is useless regretting.It doesnt matter how unintentional they may be，words can sometimes cut a lot deeper than a sword.Very often youll hear people say，“I didnt mean to hurt your feelings.”Well，if you didnt want to hurt feelings why couldnt you be thoughtful before you let the unpleasant words escape your loose lips
