Unit 1 Know yourself(短文首字母填空精准练)
01
It’s necessary to discover what you are good at or not and what you like or dislike.
Many students would be unhappy if they f 1 in a very difficult physics course, but in fact they have known a lot about t 2 . They realize that they should not become engineers or physical s 3 in the future. So failing can help a student to live a happier life if he or she draws something out of it. They may then decide on their aims and c 4 the kind of work that they would be fit for and they would like to do.
You can’t be sure whether you like something u 5 you have tried it. If you decide that you would like to play the violin, you need to take more music classes b 6 you know if you are really interested in it.
It is not e 7 to hope to be a violinist. You also have to stand(忍受) the hard practice before you become one. If you would enjoy being a great violinist, but hate the hard and b 8 work, just give it up.
It’s a good plan to try as m 9 ideas as possible when you are still young. And then you will be able to find o 10 what your true interests are.

【导语】本文讲述了年轻时要勇于尝试才能发现自己真正的兴趣。
1．句意：很多学生如果在非常困难的物理课程上不及格，他们会变得不开心。根据文中的“Many students would be unhappy”和“in a very difficult physics course”以及首字母提示可推测，涉及到学生的问题，应该是“在困难的物理课程上不及格”，因为整句是if引导的条件状语从句，主句用would，从句应用一般过去时。故填(f)ailed。
2．句意：但是事实上，他们已经了解自己很多。根据本句的主语“they”结合首字母可知，这里要填反身代词。“they”的反身代词为“themselves” ，故填(t)hemselves。
3．句意：他们意识到将来他们不能成为工程师或者物理学家。根据前文谈到的物理课程以及首字母提示可知，这里要填“scientist”意为“科学家”，且名词应用复数，故填(s)cientists。
4．句意：然后，他们可以决定自己的目标，选择适合自己并愿意从事的工作。根据“They may then decide on their aims and...the kind of work”结合首字母可知，他们会选择适合自己并愿意从事的工作，“选择”对应的英文为“choose”，and连接两个并列结构，choose应用原形，故填(c)hoose。
5．句意：只有试过之后，你才能确定自己是否喜欢它。根据“can’t ”以及首字母可知本题考查“not...until...”意为“直到……才……”，故填(u)ntil。
6．句意：如果你决定要拉小提琴，在你知道自己是否真的感兴趣之前，你需要上更多的音乐课。根据“you need to take more music classes...you know if you are really interested in it.”可知在你知道自己是否真的感兴趣之前，你需要上更多的音乐课，before“在……之前”，连接两个句子，故填(b)fore。
7．句意：只是希望成为一名小提琴手是不够的。根据后文的“You also have to stand the hard practice before you become one”可知，只是希望成为一名小提琴手是不够的。用形容词 enough作句子的表语，意为“足够的”。故填(e)nough。
8．句意：如果你喜欢成为一个伟大的小提琴手，但又不喜欢艰苦乏味的工作，那就放弃吧！根据“but hate the hard and...work, just give it up.”结合首字母可知，这里说的是“艰难而又乏味的工作”，“乏味的”对应的英文为“boring”，形容词作定语，故填(b)oring。
9．句意：在你还年轻的时候尝试尽可能多的想法是一个好计划。根据“It’s a good plan to try as...ideas as possible”可知是指尽可能多的想法，ideas是可数名词，所以应该用many“许多”修饰，故填(m)any。
10．句意：你会发现你真正的兴趣是什么。根据“It’s a good plan to try as many ideas as possible when you are still young.”可推测，尝试尽可能多的想法就会发现真正的兴趣。本题考查动词短语“find out”，故填(o)ut。

Finding out who you really are
When talking about personalities, people often say they are extrovert (外向型) or introvert. Introverts, according to surveys, like staying in their own world, w 41 extroverts get happiness through social contact. With the popularity of MBTI tests on the Internet, i 42 in the personalities is rising.
But some people are not sure about the differences between being introverts and having a social phobia (社恐). Some even make an excuse of having a social phobia to a 43 any social events. Sometimes, it’s understandable, because they hope to keep a safe social distance. However, there is a difference. People with the social phobia feel u 44 with their body and mind when getting along with others.
As a teacher in high school, I need to check on her students’ studies often. Some who use the social phobia as an excuse don’t answer and leave w 45 a word. These students may feel “safe”. But they may also push away or hurt people who really care about them. Some of them are truly shy but others are just considering t 46 as “too cool” to reply.
According to Harvard Health, this idea of changing personalities is called “masking”. That is h 47 your true personality in some situations. Thinking on this, I may be the kind of person that people are discussing. In fact, I’m mostly enjoy being a 48 and quiet. But sometimes, I just wish to show people that I’m easy to get along with and make the e 49 more interesting and exciting.
Socializing should be a way to c 50 with others. No matter if we are introverts or extroverts, we all need to understand each other.

【点睛】1. 复读短文抓信息,前后照应巧猜词
在了解文章大意的前提之下再次通读短文,目的是对短文有更进一步的了解.在阅读时要特别注意一篇文章的开头（一般不设空）和结尾,它们能提供主要的信息,帮助了解全文所描述的事件或文章的中心思想.在阅读过程中,要注意上、下文的关系,这对于把握文章的整体意义大有用处.另外,要学会跳读,即对不理解的地方采用暂时回避的方式,待真正理解全文之后再找解决的方法.有些短文填空题,有时出现约 3%~5% 的生词是很正常的,这就要求学生根据构词知识或上、下文的意思加以猜测,来确定它的词义.
2. 反复推敲多分析,慎重答题讲合理
再次通读短文,对留空的句子进行全面的分析,看它在全文中所处的位置、作用和意义.这一遍阅读要求是精心阅读,要留心找出关键词、短语或句子,还要结合所给首字母的提示,进行填写,并注意单词的正确形式.
3. 认真复查全文,把握整体和词形
做完以后,再认真读一遍,检查所填写的单词是否与文章要求相符,文章是否通顺,前后是否呼应,有无句型结构及语法错误.从实际中看,很多学生能够充分利用词首字母和短文内容填写单词,但是,问题往往出现在单词的形式变化上.比如填第3小题中，句意：许多梦想家当老师，经常引导别人。著名的梦想家：莫汉达斯·甘地，安吉丽娜·朱莉。短语work as…表示作为……。根据句意，故填as。

Unit 1 Know yourself(短文首字母填空精准练)
01
It’s necessary to discover what you are good at or not and what you like or dislike.
Many students would be unhappy if they f 1 in a very difficult physics course, but in fact they have known a lot about t 2 . They realize that they should not become engineers or physical s 3 in the future. So failing can help a student to live a happier life if he or she draws something out of it. They may then decide on their aims and c 4 the kind of work that they would be fit for and they would like to do.
You can’t be sure whether you like something u 5 you have tried it. If you decide that you would like to play the violin, you need to take more music classes b 6 you know if you are really interested in it.
It is not e 7 to hope to be a violinist. You also have to stand(忍受) the hard practice before you become one. If you would enjoy being a great violinist, but hate the hard and b 8 work, just give it up.
It’s a good plan to try as m 9 ideas as possible when you are still young. And then you will be able to find o 10 what your true interests are.

I started to work as an editor (编辑) for a travel magazine. I didn’t really m 21 the work, but I wanted something more challenging. Later, I jumped at a company. However, soon after I j 22 the company, I was asked to sell contents to teachers and training people. I had no experience in sales, training or e 23 . I told myself that everything feels difficult at first and I should at least try. In a way, I felt like I didn’t have a c 24 . I knew jumping out of the nest was the right thing for me, even though it felt awful. I was lucky to be with very helpful people, b 25 at work and at home. My boss never asked if I thought I could do it. I 26 , he asked if I was interested in trying.
I spent long hours w 27 every day. I asked lots of questions and spoke to so many teachers and soon I got more good experiences. I looked for chances to put in e 28 effort. The more I did, the better I felt. Over time, I discovered that the job was something I could do and liked doing. I also learned it’s important to take risks and a 29 new opportunities, even when you’re not sure if you’ll do well. I don’t think there’s anything w 30 than failing to try. I’m so glad I tried, and it surely paid off.

Finding out who you really are
When talking about personalities, people often say they are extrovert (外向型) or introvert. Introverts, according to surveys, like staying in their own world, w 41 extroverts get happiness through social contact. With the popularity of MBTI tests on the Internet, i 42 in the personalities is rising.
But some people are not sure about the differences between being introverts and having a social phobia (社恐). Some even make an excuse of having a social phobia to a 43 any social events. Sometimes, it’s understandable, because they hope to keep a safe social distance. However, there is a difference. People with the social phobia feel u 44 with their body and mind when getting along with others.
As a teacher in high school, I need to check on her students’ studies often. Some who use the social phobia as an excuse don’t answer and leave w 45 a word. These students may feel “safe”. But they may also push away or hurt people who really care about them. Some of them are truly shy but others are just considering t 46 as “too cool” to reply.
According to Harvard Health, this idea of changing personalities is called “masking”. That is h 47 your true personality in some situations. Thinking on this, I may be the kind of person that people are discussing. In fact, I’m mostly enjoy being a 48 and quiet. But sometimes, I just wish to show people that I’m easy to get along with and make the e 49 more interesting and exciting.
Socializing should be a way to c 50 with others. No matter if we are introverts or extroverts, we all need to understand each other.
