17.Mr.While _____in our school for nearly forty years before he retired last month.(  )
A.workedB.has workedC.had workedD.would work

分析 威尔先生在我们学校工作了将近四十年,他上个月退休了.

解答 答案C.根据时间状语从句"before he retired last month"可知退休(retired)是一个过去发生的动作,而他工作了将近40年发生在退休之前,是过去的过去发生的动作,即过去完成的动作,再联系时间状语"for nearly forty years"可知答案选C.

点评 本题考查过去完成时.过去完成时既可表示过去某个时间或动作之前所发生的事情,也可表示过去某个时间或动作之前所发生的动作一直持续到过去某个时间.过去完成时由"had+过去分词"构成.

5.Blind imitation (模仿)is self-destruction.To those who do not recognize their unique worth.Imitation appears attractive:to those who know their strenghth.Imitation is unacceptable.
In the early stages of skill or character development,imitation is helpful.When I first learned to cook,I used recipes (菜谱) and turned out some tasty dishes.But soon I grew bored.Why follow someone else's way of cooking when I could create my own?Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a child's bicycle; they help you get going,but once you find your own balance,you fly faster and farther without relying on them.
In daily life,imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously (下意识地) hold poor role models.If,as a child,you observed people whose lives were bad,you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did.If you do not make strong choices for yourself,you will get the results of the weak choices of others.
In the field of entertainment,our culture glorifies celebrities.Those stars look great on screen.But when they step off screen,their personal lives may be disastrous.If you are going to follow someone,focus on their talent,not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors.
Blessed is the person willing to act on their sundden desire to create somrthing unique.Think of the movies,books,teachers,and friends that have affected you most deeply.They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration,not desperation.The world is changed not by those who do what has been done brfore them,but by those who do what has been done inside them.Creative people have an endless resource of ideas.The problem a creator faces  is  not running out of material;it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination.
Syudy your role models,accept the gifts they have given,and leave behind what does not server.Then you can say,"I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors"tragedies and  tory,and know that they are cheering on.

51.Imitation proves useful when youC.
A.know you are unique
B.lose the bslance of life
C.begin to learn something new
D.get tired of routine practice
52.To avoid the bad result of imitation,we shouldB.
A.forget daily fear and pain
B.choose the right example
C.ask others for decisions
D.stay away from stars
53.Acording to the author.The world moves on because of those who areB.
A.desperate to intruence  others with their knowledge
B.ready to turn their original ideas into reality
C.eager to discover what their ancestors did
D.willing to accept others'ideas
54.The trouble a creator faces isD.
A.the lack of strong motivation
B.the absence of practical ideas
C.how to search for more materials
D.how to use imagination creatively
55.What is the author's purpose in writing this passage?A
A.To highlight the importance of creatively.
B.To criticize the characters of role models.
C.To compare imitation with creation.
