22、自身的經(jīng)歷詮釋了這樣一個(gè)道理：我們經(jīng)常認(rèn)為只有取得了某些成就，過上理想中完美的生活才會(huì)幸福，其實(shí)幸福就存在于我們不經(jīng)意間平凡而瑣碎的生活中，它早就已經(jīng)根植在你我身邊。1D由finish line of a long race可知作者認(rèn)為人取得階段性的成功才能真正感覺到幸福，故選D。2B根據(jù)學(xué)生已知的龜兔賽跑的故事背景可知。作者希望像烏龜那樣，靠沉穩(wěn)贏得最終的比賽。所以應(yīng)該選擇slow的同義詞，故選B。3A根據(jù)下文提到“l(fā)ike a rabbit trying different side roads”可知，作者在其他時(shí)候，表現(xiàn)得像兔子一樣，總愿意抄近路到達(dá)終點(diǎn)，故選A。4B由下文“I bega

23、n to see that”可知，作者開始逐漸意識(shí)到，故選B。5C根據(jù)下文“I finally decided one day totake a break.”可知，那個(gè)目標(biāo)從來沒有離作者更近一些，故選C。6A根據(jù)下文“Happiness will never be found under some banner far away.”可知，作者停下來休息時(shí)才發(fā)現(xiàn)，幸福就在身邊，故選A。7D根據(jù)下文hard to support my family可知，當(dāng)作者努力工作養(yǎng)家的時(shí)候，幸福在他身邊，故選D。8A根據(jù)上文“I played with my children”可知作者與孩子們一起玩，感到幸

24、福，聽到的一定是快樂的笑聲，故選A。 9C根據(jù)上文“as I raced towards that stupid banner.”中的stupid 可推知，幸福一直在作者身邊，只是作者沒有智慧去發(fā)現(xiàn)這一點(diǎn)，故選C。10B根據(jù)上文“Tension is what you think you should be.”可推知，此處應(yīng)選與tension意思相對(duì)的relaxation, 故選B。11B根據(jù)上下文的語意，可知作者以前總是追求自以為值得自己全力以赴去爭(zhēng)取的某種完美的生活，所以此處應(yīng)該是略帶貶義的一種說法。故選B。12A根據(jù)上文可知，我們應(yīng)該停止追尋自以為完美的生活，所以，我們應(yīng)該享受現(xiàn)在我們所

25、擁有的生活。故選A。13A根據(jù)上文作者得到啟示：“當(dāng)你意識(shí)到別人愛你，你也愛著別人時(shí)，幸福就來臨了。”所以推出答案為A。14D根據(jù)上文“Be a playful puppy”可知，讓我們做一只快樂的、愛玩耍的小狗，到處銜著你那根快樂的骨頭，故選D。15D根據(jù)文中多處提到的race可知，我們應(yīng)該把自己從那個(gè)競(jìng)賽中解脫出來，故選D。B【要點(diǎn)綜述】 作者通過講述在商店里幫助一位顧客的故事，說明了兩個(gè)道理：第一，做人應(yīng)該有一副熱心腸；第二，人無論貧富，都是平等的，都應(yīng)享受同等的待遇。 1A根據(jù)第二段中“she purchased the item.”可知，她買的這件商品本來是為女兒買的。2B因?yàn)榕畠阂?/p>

26、經(jīng)有了類似的東西，所以這位女士想換一件另外的商品。 manage to do sth是“成功做了某事”的意思。3A作者決定幫助這位女士，于是和她一起走到商店的柜臺(tái)處。4D參見下題的解析。5B這位女士并不認(rèn)識(shí)作者，所以屬于隨機(jī)行為。售貨員的話符合事實(shí)。 6D在這個(gè)國(guó)家，畢竟不是所有的人都有機(jī)會(huì)獲得身份證的。 7C下文“then went on to say the woman could notshe purchased the item.”說明經(jīng)理要設(shè)置退換商品的門檻。經(jīng)理解釋說即使有了身份證，如果沒有收據(jù)的話，也是沒有辦法退換商品的。8B接著上面的話，經(jīng)理順?biāo)浦壅f這位女士不能證明該商品是在

27、這個(gè)店里買的。 9C“我”將不會(huì)被拒絕擁有這項(xiàng)特權(quán)。10A從語境可知，經(jīng)理意識(shí)到自己的言行不當(dāng)，因此同意換商品。 11C根據(jù)句中but后面的內(nèi)容可知，作者在那位女士請(qǐng)求幫助時(shí)，一開始也猶豫過。12D但作者很快調(diào)整心態(tài)，捫心自問：“為什么不幫她，我有不幫她的正當(dāng)理由嗎？” 13C參見上題的解析。14B從下文可知，這位女士看起來非常窮，售貨員和經(jīng)理的無禮行為可能與此有關(guān)。作者想要表達(dá)的是：我們不應(yīng)該以貌取人(不能通過書的封皮確定一本書的質(zhì)量)。 15A這位女士雖然看起來很窮，但她有資格和別人享受同等的待遇。C【要點(diǎn)綜述】 本文是一篇夾敘夾議的文章。本文主題是關(guān)于美國(guó)夢(mèng)的，講述作者在遭遇一系列不幸后，在鄉(xiāng)村的經(jīng)歷使其對(duì)美國(guó)夢(mèng)有了深刻的認(rèn)識(shí)。1A考查副詞辨析。根據(jù)本句中the same thing的提示可知，作者和其他人都在各自(separately)追逐同一個(gè)夢(mèng)想。2B考查副詞辨析。根據(jù)前半部分“經(jīng)歷了不愉快的事件”以及后面一句話“我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己無家可歸、獨(dú)身一人”可知，此處指作者的生活變得一團(tuán)糟。fall apart意為“破碎，土崩瓦解”。故選B項(xiàng)。3D考查動(dòng)詞辨析。根據(jù)本句可知，作者在鄉(xiāng)下尋
