语篇解读 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )。生活中我们常常会遇到这样的情况,明明喝的是咖啡却非常在意装咖啡的杯子,殊不知咖啡杯只是一个器具,杯中的咖啡才应该是真正的旨趣所在。
1.解析: 考查名词辨析。根据本句的“s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tress”及下文第二段末句中的“problems and stress”可知,此处应该是抱怨生活和工作中的压力。
答案: B
2.解析: 考查名词辨析。根据第一段内容可知,学生们来看望教过自己的大学教授,对于教授来说这些学生就是客人。
答案: C
3.解析: 考查动词辨析。因为前文提到要给学生们咖啡喝,那么教授去了厨房之后应该是又返回客厅。
答案: B
4.解析: 考查名词辨析。从破折号 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )的解释可看出,教授拿来许多不同的咖啡杯。如果选择A项则意为“一种杯子”,与下文的叙述相悖。a variety of cups意为“各种各样的”,符合语境,故选C。
答案: C
5.解析: 考查动词辨析。help ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) oneself to是固定搭配,意为“随便用(或吃)”。教授拿回不同的杯子和咖啡让学生自便,从而引出下文教授的评价与教导。
答案: C
6.解析: 考查动词辨析。教授拿出许多不同的 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )咖啡杯,这是教授引起学生注意的方式,所以教授说:“你们都注意到了”。因此答案选D,noticed意为“注意,关注”。
答案: D
7.解析: 考查动词短语辨析。句意 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )为:价钱贵,样子又好看的杯子你们都用上了,放在一旁的都是一些不好看的便宜货。taken up意为“占用”,符合句意,故选D。take in意为“吸入”;take back意为“退回”;take out意为“切除,获得”。
答案: D
8.解析: 考查形容词辨析。此空所填 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )词应该与plain构成并列关系,所以选择A项,另外cheap与本句中的“expensive”也是相对的。
答案: A
9.解析: 考查连词辨析。根 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )据下文可知。“the best”和“problems and stress”形成对比,故此处应该选择表示转折意味的词语。while意为“虽然”,符合语意语境,故答案选B。
答案: B
10.解析: 考查名词辨 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )析。句意为:虽然你只想给自己选择最好,这是人之常情,但是这也正是你们的问题和压力的根源所在。根据句意可知,应选择B项,source意为“根源”。
答案: B
11.解析: 考查动词辨析。ad ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d to意为“增加”,即教授认为杯子本身不会增加咖啡的质量。故答案选D。increase一般表示具体数量上的增加;expand意为“扩大,增加,增强(尺码、数量或重要性)”;extend意为“使伸长,扩大,扩展”,均不符合题意,故排除。
答案: D
12.解析: 考查介词短语辨析。in most cases意为“在大部分情况下”,与本句中的“in some cases”相呼应。
答案: B
13.解析: 考查动词辨析。根据语境可知,此处指“我们所喝的咖啡”,what引导宾语从句,在从句中作宾语,指代咖啡。
答案: A
14.解析: 考查副词辨析。选择咖啡杯是有意识地选择。
答案: C
15.解析: 考查动词辨析。自己已经 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )选择了自认为是最好的杯子,选好之后还要打量别人的杯子。eye用作动词,意为“注视,审视,细看”,符合语境。suspect一般不用于进行时,意为“怀疑”;envy意为“嫉妒”;consider意为“考虑”,均不符合语境。
答案: D
16.解析: 考查名词辨析。本段教授开始做总结,将故事加以升华,挖掘出其深刻的寓意。与工作,社会地位能够并列的只能是钱财。
答案: A
17.解析: 考查动词辨析,与and后面的“contain”是同义词,并且能够接宾语life的只有D项,hold意为“容纳”。
答案: D
18.解析: 考查动 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )词辨析。句意为:我们使用的杯子的类型不能限定也改变不了我们的生活质量。根据上下文可知,杯子并不能使杯中的咖啡发生任何改变,故C项符合语意语境。
答案: C
19.解析: 考查动词辨析。句意为:有时候人 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )们只关注盛咖啡的杯子,而没能品尝出咖啡的味道。言外之意是人们过于关注生活的外在表现形式,而忽略生活的真正内涵。fail to do sth.意为“不能做某事”,符合语境,
答案: D
20.解析: 考查动词辨析。本句是全文的结 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )束句,也是对全文的总结,即不要让杯子牵着你走,应该享受咖啡本身。drive此处表示“迫使,驱使”,符合语境,故选B。

Lately, I’ve be ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )en talking about success with design students both at the school where I teach and at other programs that I visit. When I ask, “What is success ” The first response is, invariably(总是), “Getting a(n) 1 and making money.” It 2 some searching to arrive at a richer answer. 3 , getting paid is a baseline for success in any field. Putting this criterion on the table is a(n) 4 step.
When I ask desi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )gn students to talk about what makes design different from the fine 5 , they gravitate towards(被吸引到) the role of the client. Designers serve clients, or so the logic goes, 6 artists serve themselves.
Although it ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) is true that designers generally rely on clients, pleasing them is not the 7 purpose of our work. What designers share with our clients is the 8 . Our clients wouldn’t need us at all if we weren’t helping them 9 that public. The public may never know who designed the coffee cup they’re holding, the magazine they’re reading or the sign that’s 10 them where to go. But they’re seeing it, and some of them might, at some level, have their 11 enlivened(使有生气), simplified or otherwise improved by it. One way to think about success is asking whether your work gets 12 or used, and if so, whether using it improves people’s lives.
Designers have ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) many ways to 13 to their profession and to see and be seen in the design world. One is entering competitions and 14 work to annuals and exhibitions. Another is 15 the design community—going to events, lectures and conferences, and helping to organize them, too. Yet another involves 16 and writing. Blogs and online journals like this one enable any designer to have a voice and share ideas.
Success is 1 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )7 going to work every day and getting paid. Success means finding personal satisfaction 18 your work and loving what you do. And it means engaging with a(n) 19 world: a world of clients and employers, but also of readers, users and other designers. It is those things that make us 20 .

All that seemed 9 and came right from their heart.Nothing seemed to 10 to them: their playtime, the heat outside—they just wanted to 11 others and do something nice in the community!
I helped the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )m make some fresh lemonade and brought out some additional 12 to help clean cars.Passers-by were 13 and one even shouted back to them saying “God Bless You, my kids…” One of them even tried giving them 5 dollars, which they refused.A pretty heartwarming 14 !
I feel blessed by being 15 by such wonderful and loving souls.
