【正文】 。 There is a danger in holding back stories that ought to be told. Bobette Buster said it like this, The fact is, history has shown us that stories not told can bee like a dangerous genie (妖怪) left in a bottle. When they are finally uncorked, their power to destroy is set free. There are a number of reasons why we hide parts of our story: they often show our weaknesses or expose our disadvantages。 they require courage and strength to share。 and of course, there are some stories that should be kept secret—especially those that embarrass someone else. Most of us have two selves: the one we display on the outside and the one we actually are on the inside. And the better we get at hiding the stories that show our true selves, the more damage we may be causing to ourselves and to others. Honesty and openness is important: it proves we are trustworthy. It displays we are human. We are not perfect or better. It highlights the importance of hard work and personal development. Hard work may not allow us to overe our disadvantages pletely. But with hard work, we do not have to be restricted to our mistakes. Does this mean we admit every weakness, every disadvantage, and every secret regret to everybody we meet? No, of course not. There is a time and a place and a certain level of relationship necessary for some stories to be told in an appropriate manner.（1）What39。s the function of the example in Paragraph 2? reflects that people are concerning about the spread of Ebola. shows the bad effect caused by sharing a story. proves not sharing a story can cause trouble. concludes that one should share a story at a proper time.（2）Which is close in meaning to the underlined word uncorked in Paragraph 3? （3）One of the reasons why people are unwilling to share experiences is that _______. highlights the importance of hard work are used to exposing their weaknesses sometimes have no courage to share their stories stories make themselves feel sad（4）The writer aims to convince us to _______. open to people close to you by sharing some secrets stories appropriately for the good of others and ourselves the dangers that can be caused by untold stories the importance of being honest when making friends【答案】 （1）C（2）A（3）C（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇議論文，不分享本該被告知的故事會帶來麻煩，作者進(jìn)一步論述了人們隱藏自己故事的一部分有很多原因。同時(shí)指出有些故事需要以適當(dāng)?shù)姆绞街v述。 （1）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的“There is a danger in holding back stories that ought to be told. ”應(yīng)該講的故事被隱瞞是危險(xiǎn)的?？芍?段的例子是用來說明不分享一個(gè)故事會引起麻煩。故選C。 （2）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第三段中的“their power to destroy is set free. ”他們的毀滅力量就釋放了?？芍?，劃線詞uncorked意為“打開，釋放”之意，與A選項(xiàng)freed“解放，使自由”相近。故選A。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“There are a number of reasons why we hide parts of our story: they often show our weaknesses or expose our disadvantages。 they require courage and strength to share。 and of course, there are some stories that should be kept secret—especially those that embarrass someone else. ”我們隱藏自己故事的一部分有很多原因：它們經(jīng)常顯示我們的弱點(diǎn)或暴露我們的缺點(diǎn)；它們需要勇氣和力量來分享；當(dāng)然，有些故事應(yīng)該保密，尤其是那些讓別人難堪的故事。可知，其中一個(gè)原因是人們有時(shí)沒有勇氣分享他們的故事。故選C。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“There is a time and a place and a certain level of relationship necessary for some stories to be told in an appropriate manner.” 有些故事需要以適當(dāng)?shù)姆绞街v述，這需要時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)和一定程度的關(guān)系?？芍髡叩哪康氖钦f服我們?yōu)榱怂撕妥约旱睦孢m當(dāng)?shù)胤窒砉适?。故選B。 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇教育類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，同時(shí)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。8．閱讀理解 You are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. They did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. They are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as they are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing (內(nèi)化) your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are individuals who might like to control their lives, but they don39。t let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they don39。t blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred (神圣的) moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth. Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities, yet their experience of life is worlds apart. Victims relish (沉溺) in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others — and even themselves — to feel like victims, too. Creators consciously choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives. In reality, all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life. In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have a fuller, richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.（1）What does the word they in Paragraph 1 probably refer to? and things around you. and problems. and their choices. and their sufferings.（2）According to Paragraph 2, creators ________. ups and downs of life wisely the ability to predict future life willing to experience failures in life potential to create something new（3）What can we learn from Paragraph 3? and victims are masters of their lives. can influence more people than creators. with victims, creators are more emotional. and victims face quite different things in life.（4）The examples mentioned in Paragraph 4 show that _________. attachment to sufferings in life pulls people into victims need family support to deal with challenger in life takes creators quite a long time to get rid of their pains3
