33、。2.depressed考查词性转换。句意:做点什么事情来帮助你自己。停止感到沮丧的最好方法是行动起来。depressed 是形容词,意为“沮丧的,消沉的”。易错分析本题学生容易混淆形容词 depressed 和 depressing 的用法而错填 depressing。形容词depressed修饰人,depressing修饰物,根据系动词feeling可知,此处指人感到沮丧,所以应填形容词 depressed。3.Strengthening考查动名词。句意:加强社会发展是维持社会和谐和稳定的重要保证。分析句子结构可知,设空处作主语,且表示抽象的动作,故应填动名词Strengthening。4

39、该用复数形式。能力提升练.本文是一篇议论文。改变别人的想法并不容易,方法就是和他们成为朋友。距离产生隔阂,共同进餐更能促进人们之间的理解和宽容。1.B细节理解题。根据文章第二段第一句“The way to change peoples minds is tobecome friends with them, to assimilate them into your tribe, and to bring them intoyour circle.”可知,改变别人想法的方法就是和他们成为朋友,让他们融入你的部落,把他们带入你的圈子。所以只有成为朋友之后,人们才有可能改变自己的想法。故选 B。2.
40、A词义猜测题。根据文章第四段第一句“Perhaps it is not difference but distancethat produces tribalism and unfriendliness.”可知,也许并不是差异而是距离造成了部落主义和不友好。 结合下面的“I am reminded of Abraham Lincolns quote, I dontlike that man. I must get to know him better.”(“我”想起亚伯拉罕林肯的名言,“我不喜欢那个人。我必须更好地了解他。”)可知,距离造成了隔阂,只有接近增加,理解才能增加。由此推断出 pro
41、ximity 与 nearness 意思相近,意为“接近”。故选 A。B 项“行动”;C 项“交流”;D 项“礼貌”。3.D推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“However, during a meal, something likehanding dishes around, unfolding napkins(餐巾纸) at the same moment, or evenasking a stranger to pass the salt makes us less likely to hold the belief that theoutsiders who wear unusual c
42、lothes and speak with distinctive accents deserve to besent home or attacked.”可知,在吃饭时,分发盘子、同时打开餐巾纸、甚至请陌生人递盐的这些事使我们不太可能会认为,穿着不寻常的衣服、说话有独特口音的外人应该被送回家或被袭击;结合最后一段中的“This, I think, is a good method foractually changing someones mind. Develop a friendship. Share a meal. Gift a book.Be kind first, and be r
43、ight later.”可知,作者认为这是一个真正改变别人想法的好方法。建立友谊。分享一顿饭。赠送一本书。先善良,后正确。由此推断出,共同进餐对于建立联系是有效的,因为它促进了人们之间的理解和宽容。 故选 D。 A 项“使有着不同信仰或口音的人感到满意”;B 项“使人们专注于饮食而不是矛盾”;C 项“给一起吃饭的人们带来好处”。.本文是一篇记叙文,作者简要介绍了自己没有选择去美国而是去法国留学的原因及留学感受。1.B根据空后句 Actually, what I wanted to experience most was the Europeanlifestyle and cultural mi
44、x.可以判断作者最想体验的是欧洲的生活方式和文化的融合,与空前学生们想去美国学习形成对比,是转折关系。 B 项中的 But 体现了转折。故选择 B 项。2.C空前提到了 the French capital,空后提到了 one of those small cities,C 项 Youcan find a lot of student-friendly cities as well(你也可以找到很多对学生很友好的城市)承接上文,引出下文,故选择 C 项。3.E空后句 Opportunities were offered to develop our networking and explore
45、 thebusiness world.指出我们有机会发展我们的人际关系网,并探索商界。 E项指出“我”选的那所大学虽小但过去经常邀请商界总裁和经理。 前后两句构成一种潜在的因果关系,衔接紧密。故选择 E 项。4.G空后句以 So 开头,与前句构成因果关系,根据其内容(因此,如果你是来法国学习的留学生,你可以利用这个机会去另一个国家探索一个学期并学习英语)可知G项中的work with several countries to offer an exchange program与之吻合,故选择G 项。5.A根据空前句中的 I remember wanting to take this oppor
46、tunity in my first yearof my college life 可知作者记得自己想利用这个机会,因而会去申请,A 项(我申请了,并且很幸运地被接受了)符合逻辑。故选择 A 项。.One possible version:Paragraph 1:Immediately I recognized my sisters handwriting. “Dear sister, what a day it hasbeen today!
