60.C试题分析：本文作者是一个永远快乐的人，在他的字典里似乎找不着“不开心”这个字眼。在去讲座的路上车半路抛锚，而他却认为是“走运”：车没有坏在高速公路上而是在离目的地不远处的地方，他还能徒步去赶着上课，这令他感到开心!【41题详解】考查名词词义辨析。A.students学生；B.children孩子；C.teachers教师；D.schoolmates校友。根据首句ItaughtbiologyatUNLV…说明作者是老师，当然是问学生周末过得怎样了。故选A。【42题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。A.bad坏的；B.free自由的；免费的；C.sad悲伤地；D.good好的。根据下句Hehadhiswisdomteethremoved可知，他拔掉了智齿，这当然是令他感到不快，因此他认为假期过得不够好。故选D。【43题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。A.cheerful高兴的；B.grateful感激的；C.hopeful充满希望的；D.thankful感谢的。根据上文Icheerfullyaskedmystudents…可知，这里也该填cheerful才符合上下文语境。故选A。【44题详解】考查动词词义辨析。A.informed告知；B.reminded提醒；C.told告诉；D.warned警告。根据下文的内容可知，他的问题提醒我想起了我以前在某个地方读过的东西。故选B。【45题详解】考查名词词义辨析。A.decision决定；B.choice选择；C.preference偏爱；D.judgment判断。根据下文Ichoosetobecheerful.可推出，前面应该选择choice。故选B。【46题详解】考查动词词义辨析。A.showing表明；B.demanding要求；C.addressing向……讲话；D.commanding命令。由“Letmegiveyouanexample”可知，我继续对班上60名学生讲。故选C。【47题详解】考查名词词义辨析。A.contribution贡献；B.devotion奉献；C.addition增加；D.application应用。由下文的also可推断，这里是指“除了在UNLV教书外，我还……”，inadditionto是一个词组，意思是“除……以外”，相当于besides，故选C。【48题详解】考查名词词义辨析。A.school学校；B.college学院；C.university综合性大学；D.institute研究所。由下文Ionlyhadtodriveanotherquartermiledowntheroadtothecollege，说明作者去的就是一所college。故选B。【49题详解】考查名词词义辨析。A.highway高速公路；B.railway铁路；C.road道路；D.path小路。根据下文IexitedthehighwayandturnedontoCollegeDrive.可知，此处是沿着高速公路行驶17英里。故选A。【50题详解】考查动词词义辨析。A.broke打破；B.died死；C.ended结束；D.finished完成。根据下句Itriedtostartitagain,butthe____11____wouldn’twork.可知，是车坏了。因此选择died符合语境。broken应该在后面加down才能表示“坏，抛锚”，ended和finished都只有“结束”的意思。故选B。【51题详解】考查名词词义辨析。A.engine发动机；B.wheel轮子；C.light光；D.instrument仪器。根据上句starteditagain可知，选择engine（引擎，马达），因为只有引擎才能被启动。故选A。【52题详解】考查连词词义辨析。A.But但是；B.And并且；C.So因此；D.Or或者。因为车子无法启动，所以准备徒步行走。我打开手电筒，拿起书本，朝学校的方向走去。根据前后联系，选择so，表示因果关系比较合适。故选C。【53题详解】考查动词词义辨析。A.marched前进；B.drove开车；C.rode乘车；D.followed跟随。我打开手电筒，拿起书本，朝学校的方向走去。marched可表示“进发，开赴”的意思。故选A。【54题详解】考查动词词义辨析。A.preparedfor为……准备；B.lookedfor寻找；C.waitedfor等待；D.arrangedfor为……做准备。根据倒数第2段的…andI'vebeenabletoarrangeforthetowtruck…可知，此处表达我打电话安排了拖车。故选D。【55题详解】考查名词词义辨析。A.work工作；B.class课；C.study学习；D.lunch午饭。根据语境可知，这里应该是指下课后我让那辆拖车的卡车去接我。选择class符合上下文。故选B。【56题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。A.usual通常的；B.unusual不同寻常的；C.unlucky不幸运的；D.lucky幸运的。由下文Ireplied,smiling.可知，作者心情很好，没有把这看做是倒霉的一天，而是幸运的一天。故选D。【57题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。A.astonished惊奇的；B.puzzled困惑的；C.excited激动的；D.pleased高兴的。由常理推断，遇到这种事是不会有人说幸运的，因此那位秘书很困惑。故选B。【58题详解】考查副词词义辨析。A.Anyway无论如何；B.Instead代替；反而；C.Also也；D.Still仍旧。根据句子的前后联系可知，这里表示的是转折，“车子可能会坏在高速公路的任何地方，但是它没有，反倒是坏在最适当的地方”，选择instead符合结构的要求。故选B。【59题详解】考查介词词义辨析。A.within在……的范围内；B.beyond超过；C.without没有；D.along沿着。由下文的I’mstillabletoteachmyclass可推断，这里是指“在徒步能赶到目的地的距离之内”，选择within表示“在……范围内”。故选A。【60题详解】考查名词词义辨析。A.order命令；B.need需要；C.way方法；D.situation情形。由上文的讲述可推断，此处的意思表示“以一种再也不能更舒服的方式安排了”，“以……方式”可用in…way，这是固定搭配。in…order“以……顺序”，in…need“需要”，in...situation“处于……状态”都不符合语境。故选C。三、阅读理解18.Inmodernsocietythereisagreatdealofargumentaboutcompetition.Somevalueithighly,believingthatitisresponsibleforsocialprogressandprosperity;otherssaythatcompetitionisbadbecauseitsetsonepersonagainstanotherandbecauseitleadstounfriendlyrelationshipbetweenpeople.Ihavetaughtmanychildrenwhoheldthebeliefthattheirself-worthreliedonhowwelltheyperformedattennisandotherskills.Forthem,playingwellandwinningareoftenlife-and-deathaffairs.Intheirsingle-mindedpursuitofsuccess,thedevelopmentofmanyotherhumanqualitiesissadlyforgotten.However,whilesomeseemtobelostinthedesiretosucceed,otherstakeanoppositeattitude.Inaculturewhichvaluesonlythewinnerandpaysnoattentiontotheordinaryplayers,theystronglyblamecompetition.Amongthemostvocalareyoungsterswhohavesufferedundercompetitivepressuresfromtheirparentsorsociety.Teachingtheseyoungpeople,Ioftenobserveinthemadesiretofail.Theyseemtoseekfailurebynottryingtowinorachievesuccess.Bynottrying,theyalwayshaveanexcuse:“Imayhavelost,butitdoesn’tmatterbecauseIreallydidn’ttry.”Whatisnotusuallyadmittedbythemselvesisthebeliefthatiftheyhadreallytriedandlost,thatwouldmeanalot.Suchalosswouldbeameasureoftheirworth.Clearly,thisbeliefisthesameasthatofthetruecompetitorswhotrytoprovethemselves.Botharebasedonthemistakenbeliefthatone’sself-respectreliesonhowwelloneperformsincomparisonwithothers.Bothareafraidofnotbeingvalued.Onlyasthisbasicandoftentroublesomefearbeginstodissolve(缓解)canwediscoveranewmeaningincompetition.52.Whatdoesthispassagemainlytalkabout?A.Failuresarenecessaryexperiencesincompetition.B.Competitioncanhelppeopletosetupself-respect.C.Opinionsaboutcompetitionaredifferentamongpeople.D.Competitionisharmfultopersonalqualitydevelopment.53.Whydosomepeoplefavorcompetitionaccordingtothepassage?A.Itpushessocietyforward.
