Have you ever heard of the saying, “If anything is worth doing, it is worth doing well”? The proverb is a piece of  36  to make efforts towards perfection in whichever job one does. It could be a  37  task like folding up your clothes, or a major one like  38  a business meeting in your later life .            

Perfection is  39  but attention to details. If it is your job to dust the furniture at home, dust it so that not a single spot of dirt  40  from any angle. If your task is to make the beds, make them so that not a single crease（皺痕）shows on the bed – covers.                                 

There are  41  two ways to do a job: either  42 , or well. If you choose the latter path, you  43  to realize that any job that qualifies as “your” work deserves nothing  44  than your best. Perfection is an  45  that can be cultivated（培養）with just a little effort. It is a habit that  46  one in good stead in later life. Let us  47  with an example: you may be asked to turn in an essay 48 , say, wildlife, for a school project. Instead of writing carelessly a few  49  that you already know, you could make the project more effective by  50  reference books, encyclopedias or websites for additional information. You could then  51  the finished essay for slips（疏漏）and errors, and provide pictures where necessary. If you make it a habit to  52  extra effort in your school homework, will it not help you to handle more difficult  53  at the college or university level?

Answer 1

在語篇的層面上考查了考生借助篇章進行合理推理的能力。

36. B 四個選項中只有advice 為不可數名詞，故選B。

37. D 與后半句的major 遙相呼應，表相反，故選D。

38. A 考查固定搭配。

39. C 主要考查B與C的辨析及對文章的理解。nothing but “不過，僅僅”。anything but 根本不。較難。

40. A show“露出，顯出”; reveal“暴露，揭露’; 該題學生易上當。

41. A 考查no more than 僅僅, not more than 不超過, more than 超過；考查三者的辨析。

42. B 由后者的well 褒義詞推理出前面應該填貶義詞。

43. D 考查句意。意為“如果你選擇后者，你需要意識到…”

44. C 考查雙重否定等于肯定。nothing less than 意為“完全(是)”，較難。

45. B 完美是一種可以培養的態度。考查前后的搭配。

46. A 考查固定表達stand me in good stead “幫我大忙”。此題較難。

47. D 句意：讓我們用例子來證明吧。approve“贊成，同意，批準”; provide 和offer 均為

及物動詞，需要直接跟賓語。

48. A 此處考查句子結構分析，去掉插入語say“比如說”之后，則可看出這是一篇關于野生動物的散文。所以用on 表示“關于”。較難。

49. A由上下文可知此處要表達“如果你要做得完美，那就不應當只是寫一些眾人皆知的事實而已。”

50. C 查閱資料，固定表達。refer 欠to 。

51. B 仔細檢查。turn to“向…求助”。較容易。

52. A 考查詞組的辨析。put in“投入”; put on“穿上，上演”; put away “收起來，放好”; put up

“舉起，張貼”。

53. D 細節題，線索在倒數第二段的第五行。

54. C 長句砍短后可知，此處表達的是“正如某人曾經說過”。

55. B  put 此處為“說”之意。考查熟詞生義，較難。
