Question

Lose-Win is weak. It’s easy to get stepped on. It’s easy to be the nice guy. It’s easy to give in, all in the name of being a peacemaker.

A girl named Jenny once told me about her   36   in the world of Lose Win during her eighth grade year before she finally broke  37   :

My  38    with my mom all started one day   39    she said to me sarcastically(諷刺地)，“Wow, you’re sure sassy today.” I   40   it so literally (字面地) that then and there I decided to close myself off from her and never   41    back to her. So every time she would say something   42    I disagreed with her I would just say, “Okay,  43    you want, Mom”

But I really got cold quickly. And my   44    began to build. One night I talked to my mom about the school homework and she said, “Oh, that’s   45   ”and then went back to mop the floor.

“Don’t you ever   46   ?”I thought. But I didn’t say anything and stormed off. She had no idea I was   47    upset. She would have been willing to talk to me had I   48    her how important it was to me.

At last, I just blew up. “Mom, this has got to   49   . You tell me everything you want me to do and I just do it because it’s   50    than fighting. Well, I’m sick of it.” This all came as a   51    to her.

After my blowup, we felt like we were   52    all over in our relationship. But it’s getting better all the time. We discuss things now and I always   53    my feeling with her.

If you adopt Lose Win as your basic   54    toward life, then people will wipe their dirty feet on you. You’ll also be   55    your true feelings deep inside. And that’s not healthy.

Answer 1

36---55      ADBCD   CABBC   ACDBB   ABACD

解析:

36.A  通過下文看，Jenny講述了自己從忍氣吞聲到最終擺脫出來的過程。而在此過程中，她經(jīng)歷了從妥協(xié)到氣憤以至最后跟媽媽理論爭得尊嚴(yán)的過程。因此，選“徘徊”最能說明這個(gè)過程。

37.D   break free“掙脫”，“獲得心靈、精神上的解放”，符合Jenny爭得自己尊嚴(yán)的結(jié)果。

38.B   從后文看，這兒指的是“我”跟媽媽的“問題、矛盾”的出現(xiàn)。

39.C   when引導(dǎo)定語從句，修飾前面的名詞day,本身作狀語。

40.D   take此處意思是“接受、理解”之意，此處指作者并未真正了解媽媽對她的諷刺口吻，僅僅理解她所說的話的字面意義。

41.C  talk back“還嘴、頂嘴”，此處指Jenny決定忍氣吞聲，不跟媽媽頂嘴。

42.A  even if引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句，當(dāng)“即使”講，Jenny此處決定即使媽媽說的不對，也不去頂撞她。

43.B  此處指Jenny總是不頂撞媽媽，媽媽說什么就是什么，因此用whatever“無論什么”。

44.B  Jenny雖然不頂撞媽媽，但內(nèi)心的“怒氣”在聚集。

45.C  理解下文Jenny生氣可知，此處是媽媽“敷衍”我的話，意為“好啊”，表現(xiàn)出媽媽對我的學(xué)業(yè)漠不關(guān)心。

46.A  care當(dāng)“關(guān)心、在乎”講，此處Jenny在內(nèi)心里反問：媽媽關(guān)心過我嗎？

47.C  even此處用來加強(qiáng)語氣。進(jìn)一步說明媽媽對“我”漠不關(guān)心，意為：她甚至不知道我生氣了。also, still, already均不合邏輯。

48.D  此處句子結(jié)構(gòu)是虛擬語氣，假如我“告訴”媽媽，她會明白學(xué)業(yè)對我來說有多么重要。

49.B  Jenny最后終于爆發(fā)，對媽媽說：這一切需要“改變”了。Jenny不能再忍氣吞聲下去了。

50.B  Jenny在申訴：忍氣吞聲是為了避免跟媽媽發(fā)生沖突，為了大家好，即：我忍氣吞聲總比與你發(fā)生爭執(zhí)來對大家說“更容易”。

51.A  表示媽媽沒有預(yù)料到“我”會這么生氣，而且向她申訴。surprise用作可數(shù)名詞，當(dāng)“令人吃驚的事情”講。

52.B  表示“我”和媽媽的關(guān)系有了新的“開始”。start all over表示“重新開始”。

53.A  share\:with\:與媽媽分享（交流）自己的感情，符合題意跟搭配關(guān)系。

54.C  后面的介詞是toward,因此只有選“態(tài)度”才符合題意跟搭配關(guān)系。

55.D  Jenny最后發(fā)表議論，“忍氣吞聲”、把自己的真實(shí)感情“隱藏”起來對健康不利。
