第6页，共9页

11.考查细节理解。根据第二段“Bytheendoftheday,whenIfinallyhavetimetothinkaboutdoingsomething

formyself,I'mtootired.IreachforaglassofwineandsinkdownintothesofatowatchsomemindlessTV

entertainment.Iescape.Iletmyselfdaydream.（在一天结束的时候，当我终于有时间考虑为自己做一些事情的

时候，我太累了。我伸手拿了一杯酒，坐在沙发上看一些无聊的电视娱乐节目。我逃跑。我让自己做白日

梦。厂可知，作者在一天结束时会经常喝点酒，看看电视，做做白日梦，故答案为Shelostherselfinwine,TV

anddaydreams./ShewatchedTVanddaydreamedoveraglassofwine./Shedrankwine,watchedTVand

daydreamed/haddaydreams。

12.考查词句猜测。根据划线单词所在句子“Inprioritizing（优先处理）myfamily'sneeds,myownneedsare

alwaysputonthebackburner.（在优先考虑家人的需要时，我总是把自己的需要putonthebackburnero）”可知,

作者总是优先考虑家人的需求，这说明作者把自己的需求往后推，即作者的需求“被搁置，推迟”，由此可推

知，划线短语意为“搁置，推迟“，动词delay/postone/动词短语putoff有此意思，句中put是过去分词形式，

与are构成一般现在时的被动语态，所以动词delay/postpone/put也应用过去分词形式,句首单词首字母大写，

故填Delayed/Putoff/Postponedo

13.考查推理判断。根据第五段的"Then,Idecidedtobringlightbacktomyeyes.Ilistednewthingstotrybefore

Iturnedfortyyearsold.ThefirstthingwasparticipatinginaPolarPlungetoraisemoneyfortheSpecial

Olympics.IliveinMinnesotaandjumpingintothemiddleofafrozenlakeseemsveryappealing.（然后，我决定

让我的眼睛恢复明亮。我列出了四十岁之前要尝试的新事物。第一件事就是参加极地跳水，为特奥会筹集

资金。我住在明尼苏达州，跳进一个结冰的湖中间似乎很有吸引力。广和第六段的“But【hesitatedwhen

approachingtheplatformtotaketheleapintothefrozenlake.Finally,Iletgoofmyfearandgotreadytoembrace

thechallenge.（但当我走近平台准备跳进结冰的湖面时，我犹豫了。最后，我放下了恐惧，准备迎接挑战。广

可知，作者参加极地跳水是因为作者想尝试新鲜事物，想冒险，且这项运动很有吸引力且充满冒险，同时

作者也想改变自己，让自己快乐，挑战自己，为特奥会筹集资金，故答案为Shewantedtochangeherlife（bring

backjoy/happiness）,raisemoneyandtheactivitywasappealing/anadventure/adventurous.o

14.考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段的“Mommy,yoifregreat.Wewanttodothat,too.（妈妈，你真棒。我们也

想这么做。）”可知，作者的孩子开始羡慕作者，并且欣赏作者，故答案为Theybegantoadmireandappreciate

theauthor.。

15.开放题。通读全文可知，作者在成为两个孩子的妈妈后，一心扑在家庭生活上，迷失了自我，但孩子

们并不喜欢这样的妈妈。作者意识到这个问题后，决心改变现状，积极参与各项活动，让生活多姿多彩，

由此可知，作者在现在的生活中，一定会平衡好家庭、工作及自己的生活。故答案为Shelivesapositivelife.
