Question

Michael is the kind of guy you love to hate．He is always in a good  21 and always has something  22  to say．

     If an employee was having a bad day, Michael was there telling the  23  how to look on the positive side of the situation．Seeing this style really made me  24  , so one day I went up to Michael and asked him, "I don' t  25  ．You can' t be positive all the time．How do you do it?"

     Michael replied, each morning I  26 and say to myself 'Mike, you have two  27 today．You can choose to be in a  28  mood or be in a bad mood．' I  29  to be in a good mood．Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a  30  or choose to learn from it．I choose to learn from it．"

     "Yeah, right．It isn't that easy．" I protested．

     "Yes it is, " Michael said．"Life is all about choices．You choose how you react  31 situations and how people will affect your mood．You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood．The bottom line is: It's your choice  32  you live life．"

     Several years later, I heard Michael was involved in a serious 33 , falling off 60 feet from a communications tower．After l8 hours of surgery, and weeks of intensive  34  , Michael recovered．When I asked him what had  35  his mind as the accident took place．

     "The first thing that went through my mind was the well being of my soon-to-born daughter," Michael replied．"Then, as I  36  on the ground, remembered I had two choices: I could choose to live or I could choose to  37  ．I chose to live．"

     Michael lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also  38  his amazing attitude．

     I learned from him  39  every day we have a choice to live fully． 40 is everything．

Answer 1

21---40    ABCDD   CBABC   DCCBA   BCDCA  

解析:

21．A由下文第三段的 “I．．．to be in a good mood．”可知，答案为A项。

22．B由下文第二段的 “You can' t be positive all the time．How do you do it?”可知，Michael总是乐观的，并且总有积极的事情去说。

23．C由本段中的 “If an employee was having a bad day,．．．”可知，如果员工有不愉快的一天，Michael就告诉这个士兵如何去看待生活的积极的一面。

24．D由下文的 “．．．so one day I went up to Michael and asked him,．．．．You can' t be positive all the time．How do you do it?”可知，作者好奇，所以问出这样的问题。因此，答案为D项。

25．D get it “了解，懂得”；make it “及时到达，成功，约定时间”；从上下文来看，作者不明白。因此问了下面的问题, “You can' t be positive all the time．How do you do it?”

26．C由 “each morning”可知，醒来并自己告诉自己。因此，答案为C项。take up拿起，占去，接受； make up组成，编造； bring up教育，提及，呕吐。

27．B由下文的 “You can choose to be in a ．．．mood or be in a bad mood．”可知，是两个选择，因此，答案为B项。

28．A由下文的 “．．．or be in a bad mood．及to be in a good mood．”可知，此处选择A项。

29．B由上文的 “You can choose to be in a．．．”可知，此处答案为B项。

30．C由上文的 “Each time something bad happens,．．．．．or choose to learn from it．”可知，要么从坏事中学习，要么成为受害者。因此，答案为C项。

31．D考查短语react to．．．对……作出反应（评价，应答）；react by以…方式作出反应; react against反对; 反抗; react with与…起化学反应。从题中可以看出，是对情况作出反应，因此，选择D项。

32．C从句法分析，you live life主谓宾都有，因此，选择how，句意为：过怎样的生活是你的选择。

33．C由下文的 “．．．,falling off 60 feet from a communications tower．After l8 hours of surgery,．．．” 可知，Michael遇到了意外事故，因此，答案为C项。

34．B由本句知，在18个小时的手术后以及数周的intensive care重病特别护理后，他恢复了。因此，答案为B项。

35．A由下文的 “The first thing that went through my mind was the well being of my soon-to-born daughter,．．．”可知。go through穿过，经过；break through突围，突破；look through仔细检查；read through仔细阅读。

36．B由上文的知，Michael从60英尺高的信息塔上掉下来，因此，只能是躺在地上了。

37．C由文中的 “．．．remembered I had two choices: I could choose to live or．．．”知，与活相对应的应该是die死了。

38．D由上文的 “Michael lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also．．．”知，Michael活下来，由于他的医生们的技能，而且……，可知，另一个也是原因。所以，选择D项。so long as只要；in case of万一，如果； instead of代替，而不是。

39．C分析句子结构，that此处是引导宾语从句，在句中不做成分，只起引导作用。

40．A从全文来分析，以及让Michael从意外事故中活过来的原因 “his amazing attitude”可知，是态度决定一切。
