entertain【答案】(1)D(2)A(3)C(4)B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夾敘夾議文,作者的教授曾經(jīng)說(shuō)過(guò),任何害怕失敗和害怕面對(duì)挑戰(zhàn)的人永遠(yuǎn)都不會(huì)嘗到成功的滋味。作者當(dāng)時(shí)不以為然當(dāng),直到自己親身經(jīng)歷了失敗和挑戰(zhàn)后,作者才意識(shí)到人們面對(duì)挑戰(zhàn)或失敗時(shí)要大膽應(yīng)對(duì),保持積極的心態(tài)。(1)考查推理判斷。一開(kāi)始介紹了作者的教授提出的一個(gè)觀點(diǎn),但是作者當(dāng)時(shí)不以為然,直到在今后實(shí)際生活中真正遇到了失敗或挑戰(zhàn)時(shí)才認(rèn)識(shí)到了教授的觀點(diǎn)。下文主要通過(guò)自己的親身經(jīng)歷闡述了自己的觀點(diǎn),即通過(guò)舉例說(shuō)明的方式。故選D。(2)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“Iwasnoexception.Ithoughtofrunningaway.”我也不例外。我想過(guò)逃跑;以及第五段中的“IfeltImadeawrongdecisiontomovethere.Iwasnowreadytofacefailure.”我覺(jué)得搬到那里去是一個(gè)錯(cuò)誤的決定。我現(xiàn)在準(zhǔn)備好面對(duì)失敗了。可知當(dāng)伊拉克和科威特之間的戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)爆發(fā)時(shí),作者感到?jīng)]有信心。故選A。(3)考查詞義猜測(cè)。根據(jù)第四段中的“thingsbecomedifficult,andeveryeffortseemstobringdisappointment,itcanbetemptingtoloweryourexpectationsoreven”可知當(dāng)事情變得困難,每一次努力似乎都會(huì)帶來(lái)失望,它可能會(huì)降低你的期望,甚至降低你的目標(biāo)和抱負(fù)。故可推測(cè)劃線短語(yǔ)意思為"削弱",與C選項(xiàng)含義接近。故選C。(4)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Successcomestotheonewhodares,evenafterfailure,tothinkpositivelyandlookforwardconfidently.Afterall,itisonlytheexperiencethatmakesamantough.Failuredoesnotmeanyouwillnevermakeit.Itmeansthatitwilltakealittlelonger.Itprovidesuswithalearningexperience.”成功屬于那些即使在失敗之后仍敢積極思考并充滿信心地展望未來(lái)的人。畢竟,只有經(jīng)歷才能使人堅(jiān)強(qiáng)。失敗并不意味著你永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)成功。這意味著它將花費(fèi)更長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間。它給我們提供了一個(gè)學(xué)習(xí)的經(jīng)驗(yàn)??芍髡邔?xiě)這篇文章的目的是勸說(shuō)人們面對(duì)挑戰(zhàn)或失敗時(shí)要大膽去對(duì)應(yīng),保持積極的心態(tài)。即作者寫(xiě)這篇文章的目的是說(shuō)服別人。故選B?!军c(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及詞義猜測(cè)和推理判斷兩個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇人生感悟類閱讀,要求考生根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,從而選出正確答案。4.閱讀理解
