人生不是上帝为谴责我们的缺陷而给我们布下的陷阱。人生也不是一场拼写比赛，不管你拼出多少单词，一旦出现了一个错误，就会前功尽弃。人生更像是一个棒球赛季，即使最好的球队也会输掉三分之一的比赛，即便最差的球队也有春风得意的日子。我们的目标就是多赢少输。当我们能够接受不完整是人性的一部分这个事实时，当我们的人生不断滚动并能欣赏其价值时，我们就会获得其他人仅渴望的完整人生。我相信这就是上帝对我们的要求：不求“完美”，不求“永不犯错”，而是求得人生的完整。

六、作文(1题)66.Directions:Forthispart,youareallowed30minutestowriteacompositiononthetopic"HowIFinanceMyCollegeEducation".Youshouldwriteatleast120words,andbaseyourcompositionontheoutlinegiveninChinesebelow：1.上大学的费用（tuitionandfees.可以通过多种途径解决；2.哪种途径适合于我（说明理由）。

参考答案

1.B解析：encourage：鼓励、鼓舞；discourage：使泄气；prevent：阻止；ask：要求。根据句意只有选B。

2.D

3.B

4.C解析：副词so置于句首，句子应该用倒装语序，某人受伤用sb.beinjured来表示，故答案为C。

5.C解析：notonly…butalso连接主语时，谓语动词根据就近原则由butalso后的成分来决定。TomandMary是两个人，所以动词用复数形式。

6.B

7.C

8.B

9.C

10.C

11.B解析：此处是对将来情况的假设。虚拟条件句的谓语部分为should，had或were时，可把if省去，而把should，had或were放在从句的主语之前，构成主谓部分倒装。

12.B解析：表示否定的副词前置于句首，句子需要不完全倒装，即助动词提前。其余选项均可排除。除Notuntil外还有never，seldom，rarely，seldom，no，little，hardly，innotime等否定副词或结构放在句首时，句子需要部分倒装。

13.B考查反义疑问句。原句应是：youwouldthinkhehadhaveforgotten…反义疑问句的规则是陈述部分是肯定式，疑问部分应是否定式。Wouldthink表示推测，疑问部分也应选择would。选项B是正确的。【句子大意】你难道还认为他已经忘掉了，是吗?

14.A解析：根据上文提到“findone”，故下文中也应填one，表示泛指。

15.C解析：本题考查倒装虚拟语气用法。本句是表示与将来事实相反，所以从句用wereto形式。句意为：如果他今天出发的话，他就会在星期五以前到达那里。

16.Bsetout意为“出发，动身”。

17.B

18.D

19.D本题考查时态。

【应试指导】句意：当你写信回家的时候，请代我向你的妻子问好。在时间状语从句中用一般现在时代替一般将来时。

20.D解析：本题考查动词搭配。doone'shomework“做作业”；makemistakes“犯错误”。句意为：做作业，还要保证别犯错误。

21.随信附上洗衣机技术方面的附加资料；若还需其他信息请随时与我们联系。随信附上洗衣机技术方面的附加资料；若还需其他信息，请随时与我们联系。

29.玩耍是童年时代的主要活动。近几年来越来越多的研究表明，玩耍在人类的成长中起着极其重要的作用。从婴儿时期，每个孩子都需要有机会和有合适的物品来玩耍。它们的主要功能是提示、鼓励和帮助孩子们玩耍。为了达到这一目的，它们必须是好的玩具，孩子们会经常玩这些玩具，而且可以经常反复地玩它。所以在孩子的不同发展阶段，选择适当的玩具很重要。近几年针对婴儿成长的研究已经表明，在孩子继承父母遗传的能力的范围内，能达到的智力水平很大程度上取决于他生命中最初的三年。
