人的非小說類書籍，可以更好地了解與你自己不同的文化。)”可知，本段主要講述的是在自己的閱讀清單中增加一些選擇的話會讓我們從全新的角度看待世界。選項B“Youcandevelopabroaderoutlook.(你可以開拓更廣闊的視野。)”正是本段主要內容，指的是通過閱讀各種體裁的書籍，我們可以擁有更廣闊的視野。故選B。【20題詳析】根據空前的“Ofcourse,somegenresaremeanttoprovideencouragement,motivation,andsupport,suchasself-helpbooksandMemoirs(回憶錄).(當然，有些類型是為了提供鼓勵、激勵和支持，比如自助書籍和回憶錄。)”可知，有些書籍是為了激勵讀者而寫的。選項E“Others,however,aren’tdesignedspecificallytoinspirereaders.(然而，有些書并不是專門為激勵讀者而設計的。)”中的“others”與上文的“some”保持一致，講述的是還有些書并不是為了激勵讀者而寫的，同時與空后內容“They’reabletodosonevertheless.(盡管如此，它們還是能夠這樣做。)”保持一致，指的是盡管這些書不是為了激勵讀者而寫，但是還是可以達到這樣的效果。故選E。第三部分語言運用(共兩節，滿分30分)第一節(共15小題;每小題1分，滿分15分)閱讀下面短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。LastDecemberIwasinvitedtoaninterviewforStructuralRepairEngineeratAirbus.Iwantedtomakethebestofthis____21____.Itwastimetotakemyfirstroundofinterviews.They____22____toaskingquestions.Surprisingly,noquestionswerefromanyofthoseconceptsI’dprepared.Theyaskedme____23____questionsbasedonmyexperience.Theinterviewwasso____24____.Inadditiontothis,oneoftheinterviewerswasstayinginthebuildingrightnexttotheoneinwhichIwaslivingandhe____25____me.EverythingwentsowellthatIfeltthejobwouldbemine.Asexpected,theycalledmeandaskedformy____26____expectationsandIsaid$50,000ayear.Theyalsoaskedmeto____27____mypastthreemonths’payslips(工資單)beforeattendingthenextinterview.I____28____andaftertendaysIreceivedthosedocuments.Thatwaswhenthecallformysecondroundofinterviews____29____.ThisroundalsowentwellandIwasexpectinga(n)____30____reply.Theysaidwithinthreedaysthey’dletmeknowtheresult.Tendayspassed;Ifeltsadand____31____.IwasthinkingifIdidn’tgetthisjob,Iwouldn’thaveanymorestrengthto____32____againwhenmycellphonerangsuddenly.A(n)____33____awaitedmiracle(奇跡)happened;thecallwasfromAirbusHR.Themanagersaid,“____34____!You’vegotthejob.We’vedecidedtogiveyou$80,000…”Hurray!Allthewaitwas____35____!21.A.choice
