To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts(才能)of a good actor. You must be able to 1 the attention and 2 of your audience; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your 3 ;and you must be able to act 4 you are teaching, in order to make its 5 clear.
Watch a good teacher, 6 you will see that he doesn’t sit still before his class: he stands the whole 7 he is teaching; he walks about, 8 his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations. Listen to him, then you will hear the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his 9 always changing according to what he is talking about. The fact 10 a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn’t 11 that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage(舞台),for there are very important 12 between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. The actor has to speak words which he has 13 by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays small part, even his 14 is usually fixed beforehand(事先).What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem 15 on the stage.
A teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play. They ask and answer questions, they 16 orders, and if they don’t understand something, they say so. The teacher 17 has to suit his act to the needs of his audience. He cannot remember his part, but must 18 it as he goes along.
Teachers are fine actors in class but unable to take part in 19 because their brains wouldn’t keep discipline: they could not keep 20 to what another had written.

阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳答案。
A
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 1 in the world of Lose Win during her eighth grade year before she finally broke 2 :
My 3 with my mom all started one day 4 she said to me sarcastically(讽刺地)，“Wow, you’re sure sassy today.” I 5 it so literally (字面地) that then and there I decided to close myself off from her and never 6 back to her. So every time she would say something 7 I disagreed with her I would just say, “Okay, 8 you want, Mom”
But I really got cold quickly. And my 9 began to build. One night I talked to my mom about the school homework and she said, “Oh, that’s 10 ”and then went back to mop the floor.
“Don’t you ever 11 ”I thought. But I didn’t say anything and stormed off. She had no idea I was 12 upset. She would have been willing to talk to me had I 13 her how important it was to me.
At last, I just blew up. “Mom, this has got to 14 . You tell me everything you want me to do and I just do it because it’s 15 than fighting. Well, I’m sick of it.” This all came as a 16 to her.
After my blowup, we felt like we were 17 all over in our relationship. But it’s getting better all the time. We discuss things now and I always 18 my feeling with her.
If you adopt Lose Win as your basic 19 toward life, then people will wipe their dirty feet on you. You’ll also be 20 your true feelings deep inside. And that’s not healthy.
( ) 1.A.wanderings B. disappointment C. lessons D. helplessness
( ) 2.A.out B .down C. up D. free
( ) 3.A.relationship B .problems C. quarrels D. improvement
( ) 4.A.as B .since C. when D. before
( ) 5.A.regarded B. treated C. received D. took
( ) 6.A.fight B .struggle C. talk D. turn
( ) 7.A.even if B. only if C. as long as D. as though
( ) 8.A.something B. whatever C. so much D. too much
( ) 9.A.coldness B. anger C. disagreement D. hope
( ) 10.A.true B. impossible C. nice D. important
( ) 11.A.care B. see C. say D. listen
( ) 12.A.also B. still C. even D. already
( ) 13.A.warned B. shown C. asked D. told

( ) 18.A.share B. have C. discuss D. improve
( ) 19.A.way B. method C. attitude D. theory
( ) 20.A.hurting B. waking C. storing D. hiding
1.A 通过下文看，Jenny讲述了自己从忍气吞声到最终摆脱出来的过程。而在此过程中，她经历了从妥协到气愤以至最后跟妈妈理论争得尊严的过程。因此，选“徘徊”最能说明这个过程。
2.D break free“挣脱”，“获得心灵、精神上的解放”，符合Jenny争得自己尊严的结果。
3.B 从后文看，这儿指的是“我”跟妈妈的“问题、矛盾”的出现。
4.C when引导定语从句，修饰前面的名词day,本身作状语。
5.D take此处意思是“接受、理解”之意，此处指作者并未真正了解妈妈对她的讽刺口吻，仅仅理解她所说的话的字面意义。
6.C talk back“还嘴、顶嘴”，此处指Jenny决定忍气吞声，不跟妈妈顶嘴。
7.A even if引导让步状语从句，当“即使”讲，Jenny此处决定即使妈妈说的不对，也不去顶撞她。
8.B 此处指Jenny总是不顶撞妈妈，妈妈说什么就是什么，因此用whatever“无论什么”。
9.B Jenny虽然不顶撞妈妈，但内心的“怒气”在聚集。
10.C 理解下文Jenny生气可知，此处是妈妈“敷衍”我的话，意为“好啊”，表现出妈妈对我的学业漠不关心。
11.A care当“关心、在乎”讲，此处Jenny在内心里反问：妈妈关心过我吗？
12.C even此处用来加强语气。进一步说明妈妈对“我”漠不关心，意为：她甚至不知道我生气了。also, still, already均不合逻辑。
13.D 此处句子结构是虚拟语气，假如我“告诉”妈妈，她会明白学业对我来说有多么重要。
14.B Jenny最后终于爆发，对妈妈说：这一切需要“改变”了。Jenny不能再忍气吞声下去了。
15.B Jenny在申诉：忍气吞声是为了避免跟妈妈发生冲突，为了大家好，即：我忍气吞声总比与你发生争执来对大家说“更容易”。
16.A 表示妈妈没有预料到“我”会这么生气，而且向她申诉。surprise用作可数名词，当“令人吃惊的事情”讲。
17.B 表示“我”和妈妈的关系有了新的“开始”。start all over表示“重新开始”。
18.A share\:with\:与妈妈分享（交流）自己的感情，符合题意跟搭配关系。
19.C 后面的介词是toward,因此只有选“态度”才符合题意跟搭配关系。
20.D Jenny最后发表议论，“忍气吞声”、把自己的真实感情“隐藏”起来对健康不利。

My words! He was reading my words out 16 to the whole class.17 laughed, then the whole class was laughing with open-hearted enjoyment. I did my best not to show 18 , but what I was feeling was pure happiness, 19 my words had the power to make people 20 .

答案:B
( ) 20. A. excited B. satisfied C. think D. laugh
答案:D
1. 提示:此处是指作者想起了从前的一件事，memory在此处的意思是“回忆、留在记忆中的人或事”。题干中的bring back的意思为“使……回忆起”，和memory正好搭配。
2. 提示:此空实际上是对整个句子意思和结构的考查。when是关系副词，引导的定语从句修饰先行词the evening，进一步说明那天晚上的情况。其他三个选项都能引导定语从句，但意思不合语境的要求。
3. 提示:当大家坐在桌子边时，应该是有人端上面条来，从下文对大家在吃面条情景的描述看，此处不是强调Aunt Pat做的意大利面条，而是强调她给我们吃的意大利面条，serve在此处的意思为“端上饭菜招待顾客”。
4. 提示:in those days指“在当时”，相当于in the past。因为作者就在吃面条的现场，不可能用到“他们的时代”这样的状语；而B、C两项都应该使用定冠词。
5. 提示:正因为是外来品，所以没有人吃过意大利面条。根据Never had I eaten spaghetti可知，大人们也都是不常吃的。D项只能表示“两者”，从上下文可知，在场的不止两个人。
6. 提示:根据下面他们对吃面条的方法都大发争论，看来他们不常吃面条，或者说不知怎样把面条送到嘴里为好，可知他们不善于吃面条。短语be good at的意思为“善于；在某方面做得好”。
7. 提示:从本句的下文看，因为他们不知吃面条的方法，必然会产生争论。have argument about也是常用的短语，意思是“就……争论”。
8. 提示:怎样把面条送进嘴里才算讲究，才算高雅，才算体面是指社交方面的事，故选用socially“在社交方面，善于交际地，在社会中”。吃东西的方法不能由官方来定，所以排除干扰性较强的C项。
9. 提示:当作者想起吃意大利面条这件事，“猛然”意识到要写这个题目，是合情理的。
10. 提示:短语put down 在此处的意思为“把……记下来或写下来”。
11. 提示:下文有not for Mr Fleage，从短文的意思看，既然不是为了上交作文而写，就不用按老师的要求写，而是为了自己高兴而写。
12. 提示:作者决定不按老师的旨意去写，“至于老师这方面……”。as for him 起承上启下的作用。
13. 提示:因为第二天早晨作者没有交上按老师要求所写的文章，可知是没有“时间”了。
14. 提示:短语hand in的意思为“上交(作业等)”。
15. 提示:根据题意:这些试卷应该是经老师批阅过打分的，而不仅仅收上来(C项)或者签名(D项)。grade在此处的意思为“给……分级或分类；给……评分”，grade papers是“评试卷；给试卷打分”。
16. 提示:读给全班同学听，应该大声地读，loud的意思为“大声地”。
17. 提示:听到好笑的事情，有人先笑了，后是全班跟着笑。根据下文I did my best not to show pleasure，可排除D项。somebody指班里的某个同学。
18. 提示:老师在班里读某人的作文，是对他的表扬和肯定。根据下一句话but what I was feeling was pure happiness 可知，作者尽力不表露“喜悦”的心情，但心里却乐开了花。
19. 提示:此处for为并列连词，意为“因为”，其明显的标志是其前面用逗号与前面的句子分开
20. 提示:根据前文提到的作者的作文只是引起了大家的大笑，the whole class was laughing with openhearted enjoyment，文中并没有提到别的情绪，可知此处应用laugh作宾语补足语。
B
One afternoon I was sitting at my favorite table in a restaurant, waiting for the food I had ?ordered to arrive.

I 17 say he looked very much like you! Of course, since we know you, we told him that he had made a 18 .” “Well, it’s really 19 I came to a restaurant where I’m known,” I said. “ 20 ,I might have been in trouble.”

答案:B
( ) 19. A. a pity B. natural C. a chance D. lucky
答案:D
( ) 20. A. Thus B. However C. Otherwise D. Therefore
答案:C
1. 提示:由全文可知，“I”对“a man”并不认识，故可排除A、D两项；understand表示“理解”，与全文语意不符;而由下文中对“a man”行为举止的描述可知，“I”无意中注意到了有人在暗中观察自己，notice一词正可以表示“无意中注意到”。
2. 提示:又见那个人不停地瞅着“我”的方向，给“我”造成的印象是“似乎认识我”。
3. 提示:由下文“他在__________地读报纸”可知，报纸应该是打开着的。
4. 提示:由下文的“那人是位侦探”，并且是“跟踪作者来到餐馆的”，可知此处最合理的选项应该是pretending，表示“假装在读报纸”。而hope表示“希望”；think表示“认为”；continue表示“继续”。
5. 提示:本题考查词义辨析。see表示“看出，留意”；find表示“发现”；guess表示“猜想”；learn表示“得知”。由于该句中“was keeping an eye on me”与上文的“kept glancing in my direction”相呼应，所以此处应该表示“我看得出他一直在观察我”。句中but与pretending to read构成转折关系。
6. 提示:在全文第一句中就已经交代出“等着我点的饭菜”，可知服务员给我送来的应该是已点的饭菜，故应该用food。
7. 提示:由下文的“all the waiters in the restaurant knew me”可知，那个人被我和服务员熟悉的交谈所困惑。
8. 提示:A项表示“与……聊天”；B项表示“看着……”；C项表示“嘲笑……“；D项表示”谈论“。在餐馆里，服务员与熟悉的顾客之间的交谈应该是“聊天”。
9. 提示:由上下文语意可知，该句中as表示“随着……”之意，而went on表示“进行下去，继续下去，所以空格处应表示“随着时间的?推移”。
10. 提示:该句中it为形式主语，that all the waiters in the restaurant knew me为真正的主语。对于侦探来讲，看到自己的跟踪目标几乎与餐馆里的所有服务员都熟悉自然令人困惑。A项表示“真实的”；B项表示“有希望的”；D项表示“可能的”。
11. 提示:由后文的“He came into the kitchen”可以作出判断。
12. 提示:由“he paid his bill”可知“此人”就要“离开”。
13. 提示:由上文所述，文中的“I”已经注意到了“the man”对于自己的注意，在他离去后，自然要打听一下那个人想要干什么。A项表示“想，想要”；B项表示“尝试，试图”；C项表示“命令”；D项表示“希望”。
14. 提示:由上文的“that man was a detective”和下文的“because he thought you were the man he_______ ”可知“I”被人跟踪了。
15. 提示:由上下文语境可知此处指“因为他认为你就是他要找的人”。
16. 提示:在得知了那个人的身份和行为后，作为“I”自然十分惊讶。
17. 提示:由侦探的跟踪行为及后文的“he looked very much like you!”可知餐馆老板在此处的话应该表示肯定的语气。
18. 提示:由上文的“the detective left without ?another glance in my direction”可知侦探已经明白了是自己搞错了。所以此处是老板告诉他弄错了。
19. 提示:由下文的“I might have been in trouble”可知，此时作者为自己感到庆幸。
20. 提示:由全文最后一句“哎呀，真庆幸我来到了一家别人都认识我的餐馆，否则我就可能陷入麻烦中了”可知，该空格最恰当的选项为otherwise。thus意为“如此，这样”，表示顺承；however意为“然而”，表示转折；therefore意为“因此”，表示因果。
