Unit 1

As a foreigner doing business in the United States, I feel very rushed. I am used to friendly opening exchanges when doing business. Here in Chicago, things are different. There is no time for getting to know one another. This does not seem ___________to me. There is no chance to develop a sense of trust when people meet to talk over issues. There are no ___________like tea or coffee before discussing business, though this is a(n) ___________in my country. When we discuss business it starts with a(n) ___________chat. I think that it is important for business partners to get familiar with each other first and to feel relaxed. If the exchange is too ___________, there is a risk that something will be forgotten. Some possibilities go without being ___________when there is too much pressure. I don't believe this is the best strategy for proper communication. Besides, the ___________is that they just don't care about you as an individual here. You are basically just another ___________of making money.

All of this used to create a real ___________for me. At first, it caused me to have as little ___________with American business partners as possible. Gradually, though, I have come to understand the cultural differences between our two countries. This has really helped me to feel more comfortable doing business here.

Unit 2

Bill Johnson's path to Olympic gold was different than that of most. In fact, even though he was the first American man to ever win the downhill skiing event, many ___________him as a true Olympic hero. He was a rebellious kid who came from a troubled background, and he boasted too much. Moreover, he only became ___________in skiing because a judge sent him to a ski school after he had stolen a car at age 17. There was no lifelong ___________to the sport. He did not ___________the Olympic spirit. He did not gain distinction by continuously training for his event.

Still, few failed to ___________his marvelous race in the 1984 Winter Olympic Games in Sarajevo. He was just a natural skier and his technique was ___________for the course. And so even before the race began, he was ___________victory. "This course was made for me. Nothing can stop me," he had boasted. He also caused some comments when he talked about the millions of dollars he would be able to make after he won the race. This made many skiers ___________toward him. That just ___________him even more. Then on the day of the event, he turned out the fastest. "It takes a lot of courage to throw yourself down a mountain," Bill Johnson ___________proudly after he won a gold medal for the United States. "Not many can do that."

Unit 3

At first, my dad was not in favor of me marrying Will because Will is black. I guess my dad was a bit of a racist. Unfortunately, no arguments could counter dad's beliefs. Despite his ___________, though, Will and I decided to go through with our wedding. On a marvelous June day we were married in the park. The wedding went off without any___________words or embarrassing exchanges. It was actually quite beautiful. There was just one problem. Many of our friends and relatives didn't ___________our wedding. I had to ___________that my dad was not the only prejudiced person we knew. Other than my father, no one had come out to speak against my relationship with Will. It did not seem ___________for them to show their resistance to our marriage in this way. My dad had strong ___________about my marriage to Will, but at least he was there. Will and I decided to ___________this burden by showing everyone how wrong they were. We wanted not only to love one another, but also to ___________racial hatred by loving one another. We probably weren't being all that ___________, but we did succeed with one person. My dad and Will have developed an ___________friendship. My dad says he has forgotten why he ever had any doubts about our marriage.

Unit 4

What do we know about love? Is it, as some people would suggest, a mysterious force? Or can it be explained and possibly even ___________? Well, even in this scientific and reason-driven age, love seems still to ___________total understanding. We can, however, know something about love and make stronger ___________between individuals.

One thing that seems to ___________love is distance. The common idea is that the love between people grows as they are ___________. Sometimes it is true that longing for someone who has gone overseas becomes more ___________.

Something that ___________love is danger. Send both lovers to dangerous places and they will end up loving each other more. This could be caused by the worry it develops. It could also be that feelings of ___________or need transform into love with time.

Love gives us warmth, courage, and a feeling of being safe, but it also ___________selfless devotion and sacrifice. If you are truly ___________to finding true love, you should make yourself more interesting. Do things that you enjoy and try to meet people who share identical interests.

Unit 5

My son has started to hang out with the wrong type of boys. He is fifteen years old and until recently I had always been grateful for how easy he has been to raise. Lately, though, he has ___________to listen to what I say. He used to be such a sweet boy, but being in high school seems to have hardened him against authority figures. The change in his attitude has been very ___________even to his teachers.

The other day I asked him to come straight home after school, but instead he ___________and stayed out until ten o'clock. Later I found out that he had ___________school completely that day. I found out that he was with a(n) ___________of boys who often cause trouble. I decided to ___________him to do anything with those boys, but he didn't listen to me. In spite of my ___________to him being with those boys, he was with them the very next day.

A friend of mine has a son who is having ___________problems. She decided to give him a change of scenery and sent him to a private school. I'm not sure this is the best ___________, though. You can't just change a boy's ___________by changing his school every time he does something wrong. It is better to help a kid establish a good set of core values.

Unit 6

My name, Bobby, is used both for boys and girls. Girls spell it "Bobbie". It is ___________for little boys to be given a name with a "y" sound at the end. For example, I often had a Jimmy, Johnny or Billy in my classes. In my second grade, I also had a Bobbie. In order not to ___________us when she called our names, our teacher ___________us the names "Bobbie Girl" and "Bobby Boy". This caused me a lot of trouble on the playground. There, my friends ___________me "Bobbie Girl". For my friends, the apparent ___________between my name and my sex was the source of much laughter. The fact that they labeled me as a girl was very ___________. I had a tendency to ___________for my name by acting more like a boy than I might have otherwise. I threw more rocks and yelled louder than the sum of all of the other boys added together. The real "Bobbie Girl", ___________, acted more like a girl. When my teacher ___________she had made a mistake, she stopped calling us "Bobbie Girl" and "Bobby Boy". Unfortunately, my friends never forgot or ___________calling me "Bobbie Girl". Third grade was an improvement; the original "Bobbie Girl" was in a different class. Also, I requested the teacher just call me "Bob". Unit 7

My family, my boss, even my doctor had told me this would happen, but I didn't

listen. They said I was getting ___________and focusing too much on the negative things that happened to me. "If you don't learn to control how you react to bad things that happen in your life, you are going to cause damage to your heart," said my doctor. "So many of the situations you ___________about are beyond your control. Getting caught in them is very ___________for you physically and emotionally. You have to learn to let these things go and ___________on things you can actually change." I, undoubtedly, should have made his advice my number one ___________right then. Unfortunately, I got caught in a traffic ___________that very same day while driving home from work. This was the setting for the heart attack my doctor had ___________me about. Instead of looking for a better outlet for my stress, I began to ___________at the car in front of me. Then the muscle fibers of my heart began beating like a bag of worms instead of pumping blood. Fortunately, it was only a mild heart attack. Someone came to my aid and then ___________me to the hospital. I have definitely learned that life is too short to worry about things you can't control.

Unit 8

Having a lot of money is useless without a good education. Life isn't simply about consumption and having a good time when you're not at work. Money will only cause you grief unless you use it for the ___________of the world. That's why I believe that a good education is ___________. A formal education with emphasis on history, literature, and culture helps a person learn how to ___________right from wrong. Education that only teaches skills specific to a job can only ___________skills for performing a task. It doesn't teach you how to make important decisions. Employers tend to demand more from their employees than the ability to perform a task. Our world needs workers who pay constant attention to high standards for their ___________. It is ___________that far too many people today are focusing on making money and not on improving themselves. What ___________me is why people should ignore contributions to the good of humanity while making money. It is only ___________a person who gives to the world enjoys the benefits. After all, our ___________simply can't be built on the principle of making money alone.

In ___________, we must educate our young people to understand and love the world around them. This is the only way to ensure a better tomorrow.

Unit 9

Nobody has ever had to tell me to get out of bed. My number one ______ has always been that I am much more ambitious than most. The way I see it, life is too short to make periodical ___________to comfort and fun. If you want to accomplish something remarkable, you've got to stay ___________and constantly work toward

your goals. My goal has been to become a(n) ___________since I was a young boy. When I was eight, my father said, "That field of work is too ___________for you. You should be more realistic about your ___________and abilities."

I didn't want to deceive myself about how hard it would be, so I started that day by getting a job ___________newspapers. I departed from home every morning at 4:30 to do my work before school. I was ___________with the printing machines so I always arrived to work early to ask questions. I wasn't much of a scholar, so I eventually ended up ___________in an average university. Still, I was ___________on becoming a reporter and did not give up my dream. I wrote for the school newspaper and when I graduated, took a job sorting mail with a local media company. I later convinced them to give me a chance to write some simple articles. That's how I got my start.

Unit 10

Are we fated to repeat the past because our memories are too short? Wasn't World War II supposed to provide a(n) ___________that would end all wars? Why are we still fighting? As people around the world ___________the agonies of war, is it possible to even hope for a brighter tomorrow?

A recent study revealed that the ___________of wars in the world is actually decreasing. I hardly believe this means we ___________historic praise for greater understanding of our fellow men. While the number of traditional wars may have ___________slightly, acts of violence around the globe are on the increase.

The end of World War II left us with an opportunity ___________seen throughout history—to start over. But, instead of seizing that opportunity and ___________safety and well-being of all peoples, rich nations took advantage of the poor. We cannot continue with the ___________that our actions in other parts of the world are without ___________at home. If we do so, the ___________efforts of the soldiers of World War II will have been a waste. We will simply repeat the wars of the past.

大学英语六级选词填空应试技巧

大学英语四级阅读：选词填空技巧汇总 选词填空的考察形式 一篇280词左右的文章，文章中挖出10个空，并统一给出A-O 15个备选答案。选词填空区别于完形填空，有更大的解题难度，原因在于： 1. 完形填空每题都是四选一，选词填空第一题要十五选一，就算用到排除法，最后一题也要六选一，而且在十五个选项中还有五个根本不会用到，难度加大； 2. 完形填空每题的四个选项都是统一的词性，只需要辨析词义、搭配就基本可以作答，而选词填空的十五个选项有多个词性，解题时需要同时判断词性和词义，难度加大； 3. 完形填空每题的四个选项往往都是统一时态，统一形式，而在选词填空中会涉及选项的动词时态、第三人称单数形式、被动主动语态，名词的单复数等的辨析，难度加大。 针对选词填空的解题方法分为三步 1. 预览选项，了解词义并把选项分为四大类词性：名词n，动词v，形容词a，副词ad，在每个选项后作词性的简要标记； 2. 精读全文开头，把握文章主题，并以三个空或一个段落为一个单位，利用前后文判 断每空的词性； 3. 把对应词性的选项逐一带回原文，含义通顺，时态、主谓搭配一致的为正确选项。 四级考试的常用后缀在判断选项词性时可以有一定帮助作用。在根据前后文判断每空的词性时，一些经常考察的形式如下： 名词：通常来说，冠词(如a，an，the)、形容词、介词后面搭配名词，即"a/an/the/adj./prep. + n。"， 举例说明：Education soon became a _____. 冠词a后面加可数名词的单数形式，正确答案是nightmare，这句话的意思是"教育很快成了一种噩梦。" As the trade winds lessen in _____, the ocean temperatures rise causing the Peru current flowing in from the east to warm up by as much as 5 degrees. (06-6) 介词in后面加名词，正确答案是strength，这句话的意思是"当信风强度减弱的时候，海洋温度上升，导致从东部流入的秘鲁洋流上升了5摄氏度之多。"较难的一个例子：Husbands and children now do some of these jobs, a ____ that has changed the target market for many products. (06-12) 这里可以用两种判断方法来判断横线处所填词的词性。第一种方法，用句子结构来判断，前面一句话，husbands and children now do some of these jobs，这是一个完整的句子，主语husbands and children，谓语动词do，宾语some of these jobs；后面的that 引导的是一个同位语从句，它所修饰的中心词就是a后面需要填的词，而定语从句的中心词是名词，所以横线处应填一个名词。第二种方法，根据刚才所说的"a + 名词"的语法规则来判断，横线处应该填一个名词，而且是一个可数名词的单数形式。正确答案是situation。这句话的意思是"丈夫和孩子现在也做一些这样的工作了，这种情况就改变了许多产品的目标市场。" 动词：动词的考点很多，我们来看其中三种： 1. 主语后缺谓语动词。举例说明：He ____ from his teachers, came home in tears and thought about dropping out. 在这句话里，主语是he，本来后面应该有一个动词作谓语，但是这里没有动词，而是在横线后面出现了一个介词短语from his teachers，这样这句话就缺少谓语动词，所以横线上应该填一个动词。正确答案是hid，这句话的意思是"他不愿见老师，
