4.If your life feels like it is lacking the power that you want and the motivation that you need,sometimes all you have to do is shift your point of view.
By training your thoughts to concentrate on the bright side of things,you are more likely to have the incentive to follow through on your goals.You are less likely (16)to be held (hold) back by negative ideas that might limit your performance.
Your life can be enhanced,and your happiness (17)enriched(enrich),when you choose to change your perspective.Don't leave your future to chance,whenever you come across anything  (18)unexpectedly (expect) and suddenly.Don't expect things to get better on their own.You must go (19)in the direction of your hopes and aspirations.Begin to build your confidence,and work through problems rather than avoid them.Remember that true power is not necessarily control over situations in life,(20)but the ability to deal with (21)whatever comes your way.Always believe that good things are possible,and remember that mistakes can be lessons (22)That/which lead to discoveries.Take your fear and transform (23)it into trust; learn to rise above anxiety and doubt.Turn your"worry hours"into"productive hours".Take the energy that you (24)have wasted (waste)  and direct it toward every worthwhile effort that you can be involved in.You will see beautiful things happen when you allow yourself to experience the joys of life.You will find happiness when you adopt positive thinking into your daily routine and make it (25)an important part of your world.

分析 本文為一篇生活哲理類的文章.介紹了如果生活中感覺缺少力量和激情,要轉(zhuǎn)變自己的觀點(diǎn)和看法.多關(guān)注生活中的陽光的方面,將自己消極的情緒變成積極的動力,使自己充滿對生活的向往,并讓幸福成為自己生活世界的一個重要部分.

解答 16.to be held    根據(jù)后面的by negative ideas可知,此處是說你很有可能被一些負(fù)面的觀點(diǎn)所牽制,所以用hold back的被動語態(tài),be likely to do sth意為"有可能做某事",故答案為to be held.   
17.enriched  由前面一句Your life can be enhanced可知,這是指你的幸福可以更加豐富多彩,即your happiness can be enriched;故答案為enriched.
18.unexpectedly    and連接的是兩個并列的成分,表示意料之外的情形,由suddenly可推斷,前面的應(yīng)該是沒有料到的,用副詞來修飾come across;故答案為unexpectedly.
19.in     in the direction of your hopes朝著你希望的方向前行;故答案為in.
20.but    true power is not necessarily control over situations in life與后面的內(nèi)容是一種轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系;故答案為but.
21.whatever    此處強(qiáng)調(diào)應(yīng)對人生中所遇到的任何形式的磨難,所以用whatever引導(dǎo)一個賓語從句;故答案為whatever.
22.That/which    永遠(yuǎn)要記住錯誤會成為以后產(chǎn)生重大發(fā)現(xiàn)的教訓(xùn),用That/which引導(dǎo)定語從句,作定語從句的主語;故答案為That/which.   
23.it    此處用it來代替前面的your fear,消除恐懼,將其變成信任;故答案為it. 
24.have wasted    這里強(qiáng)調(diào)你已經(jīng)浪費(fèi)掉的精力,用現(xiàn)在完成時;故答案為have wasted. 
25.a(chǎn)n   讓幸福成為你世界的一個重要部分;an important part of…的一個重要部分;故答案為an.

點(diǎn)評 首先要通讀全文,了解大意,抓住上下文語境所提供的信息,仔細(xì)分析帶空格的句子,明確空格所要填的詞義,詞型和短語搭配給出所要填的正確形式,然后整體閱讀短文,核對答案.

16.It is widely known that any English conversation begins with The Weather.Such a fixation with the we ather finds expression in Dr.Johnson's famous comment that"When two English meet,their first talk is of weather."Though Johnson's observation is as accurate now as it was over two hundred years ago,most commentators fail to come up with a convincing explanation for this English weather-speak.
   Bill Bryson,for example,concludes that,as the English weather is not at all exciting,the obsession with it can hardly be understood.He argues that"To an outsider,the most striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very much of it."Simply,the reason is that the unusual and unpredictable weather is almost unknown in the British Isles.
  Jeremy Paxman,however,disagrees with Bryson,arguing that the English weather is by nature attractive.Bryson is wrong,he says,because the English preference for the weather has nothing to do with the natural phenomena."The interest is less in the phenomena themselves,but in uncertainty."According to him,the weather in England is very changeable and uncertain and it attracts the En glish as well as the outsider.
  Bryson and Paxman stand for common misconceptions about the weather-speak among the English.Both commentators,somehow,are missing the point.The English weather conversation is not really about the weather at all.English weather-speak is a system of signs,which is developed to help the speakers overcome the natural reserve and actually talk to each other.Everyone knows conversations starting with weather-speak are not requests for weather data.Rather,they are routine greetings,conversation starters or the blank"fillers".In other words,English weather-speak is a means of social bonding.
32.The author mentions Dr.Johnson's comment to show thatD.
A.most commentators agree with Dr.Johnson
B.Dr.Johnson is famous for his weather observation
C.the comment was accurate two hundred years ago
D.English conversations usually start with the weather
33.What does the underlined word"obsession"most probably refer to?B
A.A social trend.
B.An emoti onal state.
C.A historical concept.
D.An unknown phenomenon.
34.According to the passage,Jeremy Paxman believes thatD.
A.Bill Bryson has little knowledge of the weather
B.there is nothing special about the English weather
C.the English weather attracts people to the British Isles
D.English people talk about the weather for its uncertainty
35.What is the author's main purpose of writing the passage?A
A.To explain what English weather-speak is about.
B.To analyze misconceptions about the English weather.
C.To find fault with both Bill Bryson and Jeremy Paxman.
D.To convince people that the English weather is changeable.

3.In the past 15years,Chad Pregracke has helped pull more than 67,000tires from the Mississippi River and other waterways across the United States.
But that's just scratching the surface.He's also helped retrieve 218washing machines,19tractors,12hot tubs,four pianos and almost 1,000refrigerators.
For Pregracke,removing this debris-pieces of wood,metal,brick,etc.-has become his life's work.Sometimes called"The Rivers'Garbageman",he lives on a barge (駁船) about nine months out of the year with members of his 12-person crew.Together,they organize community cleanups along rivers across the country.
It's a dirty job,but Pregracke took it on because he realized that no one was doing it.It began as a solo (獨(dú)自的) effort,and over the years his energy and enthusiasm have helped it grow.To date,about 70,000volunteers have joined him,helping collect more than 7million pounds of debris through his nonprofit.
Pregracke grew up in East Moline,Illinois,where the Mississippi River was in his backyard.As a teenager,he worked as a commercial shell diver and began to notice the heaps of debris in the waterway-one that supplies drinking water to 18million people in more than 50U.S.cities.
"I saw thousands of barrels,thousands of tires,cars,trucks and tops of school buses…I got sick of seeing it and just wanted to do something about it,"he said.
Pregracke got a small fund from a company in 1997and spent that summer cleaning a 35-mile stretch of the river by himself.He would transport the trash by boat and sort it on his parents'lawn to be recycled.By year's end,he had single-handedly pulled around 45,000pounds of trash out of the river.
His nonprofit now has a fleet of boats.And while he has resources and know-how,he depends on each community he visits to supply the manpower needed to get the job done.
At the cleanup sites,Pregracke's humor creates cheerful atmosphere-something he knows is necessary for the work that they do.His team uses motivational speeches and music to get the volunteers amped up (陶醉).
"We do everything in our power to get people excited about it,"Pregracke said."We want people to leave feeling good about what they did so they'll contribute more here."
Pregracke views his work as a different kind of service to the country.
"A lot of people call me a conservationist or an environmentalist,but the thing is I'm no different than anybody else,"he said.
Ultimately,Pregracke believes his story is proof that anyone can make a difference:
"If I had one thing to say,it wouldn't even be about rivers necessarily.It would be about finding a cause that's dear to you and taking action."
67.What initially caused Pregracke to clean up the waterway?D
A.People's ignorance of the debris at the bottom of the river.
B.His ambition to become famous throughout the country.
C.Safety problems of sailing boats along the Mississippi.
D.His bad feeling about the source of the drinking water.
68.What can we learn about Pregracke from the passage?A
A.He maintains his cause with the help from society.
B.He aims at recycling what have been found in rivers.
C.He makes a living by cleaning waterways all over the country.
D.He thinks of himself as a conservationist or environmentalist.
69.Why does Pregracke try to create a cheerful atmosphere at the cleanup sites?B
A.To make the heavy job lighter.
B.To attract the volunteers back.
C.To increase efficiency in the job.
D.To get the participants'motivated.
70.Through his efforts,Pregracke wants to displayB.
A.his love for waterways                   
B.his value to society
C.his attitude to environment                 
D.his capacity for working.

9.The television news feature about Ben Heckmann,an eighth grader from Farmington,Minn was breathless in its praise."At 14,he has accomplished something many adults can't achieve,"the reporter said."Ben is a twice-published author."But Ben's two"Velvet Black"books,describing a fictional rock band,were not picked from a pile of manuscripts(手稿) by an eagle eyed publisher.They were self-published,at a cost of﹩400 by  Ben's parents.
Over the past five years,print-on-demand technology and a growing number of self?publishing companies whose books can be sold online have inspired writers of all ages to avoid the traditional gatekeeping system for determining who could call himself a"published author."
The mothers and fathers who foot the bill say they are simply trying to encourage their children,in the same way that other parents buy equipment for a promising baseball player.But others see self-publishing as a lost opportunity to teach children about hardship and perseverance.Mr Robbins,a critic,thinks it is wonderful to start writing at a young age,but worries self-publishing sends the wrong message."There are no prodigies(神童) in literature,"he said."Literature requires experience,in a way that mathematics and music do not."Alan Rinzler,a publishing industry veteran,suggested parents hire a professional editor like him to work with their child to tear a manuscript apart and help make it better.
Ben's father,Ken,said Ben's ambitions"weren't to knock Harry Potter off the list,"but"to get that good feeling inside that you've done something."
Ajla Dizdarevic,12,who has self?published two books of poetry,has been on television and in local newspapers.Being a published author,she said,"was always a dream of mine."Her new dream:three books by age 15.

66.Which of the following is true of Ben?C
A.His manuscripts were favored by the publisher.
B.His self-published books were well received.
C.He has achieved something unusual for his age.
D.He was thought little of by the public media.
67.What makes it possible for writers of all ages to self-publish their works?D
A.The rapid increase of online readership.
B.The increasing number of publishers.
C.The immediate access to marketing agencies.
D.The development of printing and publishing.
68.Some parents pay the self-publishing bill for the purpose of.B
A.offering opportunities  B.giving encouragement
C.helping avoid hardship  D.showing love and care
69.Alan Rinzler suggests that children should.C
A.be forbidden to write books
B.start writing at an early age
C.be professionally guided
D.learn from experience
70.According to the last part,some children self-publish works just to.B
A.earn more money
B.a(chǎn)chieve their dreams
C.gain self-confidence
