Ⅰ.完形填空
[导学号:65294068]
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。作者以自己的事为例呼吁全体女性勇敢追求成功,为争取性别平等而不懈努力。
1.C 解析:根据“It was to be the best tennis player”以及下文内容尤其是“People call me...Why don’t they say LeBron is one of the world’s best male athletes?”可知,此处指作者说自己小时候的理想与普通孩子的是不同的,故选average“普通的,一般的”。ambitious“有野心的,有雄心的”;excellent“优秀的”;energetic“精力充沛的”。
2.A 解析:结合本文主旨以及下文中的“People call me one of the ‘world’s greatest female athletes’.Why don’t they say LeBron is one of the world’s best male athletes?”可知,作者希望男女平等,所以作者在此强调的是自己的理想是做世界上最好的网球运动员,而不是最好的女网球运动员。instead of “而不是”;regardless of “不管,不顾”;other than “除了”;more than“多于,超出”。
3.B 解析:幸运的是(Fortunately),作者有鼓励她追寻自己梦想的家人。此处亦与下文中的“But too often, most women are not supported...”形成对比。hopefully
“有希望地”;obviously “明显地”;generally “普遍地”。
4.D 解析:根据下文中的“My fight began when...” “fight for their dreams”可知,这里指作者知道了为梦想而努力是多么重要。push for “为……而努力,力争”。make up “编造,构成”;set up “设立,建立”;care for“照顾”。
5.C 解析:作者从三岁时就开始为理想奋斗,自此从未间断。break“暂停,中断”,符合语境。
6.C 解析:但是通常,大多数女性不被支持,或者被阻止去选择自己的道路。discourage“阻止,阻挠”,符合语境。defend “保卫,保护”;excuse “同意免除”;dismiss “去除,摒除”。
7.B 解析:作者希望这种境况可以改变,在作者看来,这是有关“坚忍”的问题(question)。thought “想法”;moment “时刻”;bonus “意外收获,奖金”。
8.A 解析:根据下文中的“my race, my gender” “I accepted as fuel for my success” 可知,此处指被别人列为作者的劣势(disadvantages)的东西,比如她的种族,她的性别,作者将它们视为追求成功的动力。concern “担忧”;qualification “资格”;personality “个性”。
9.D 解析:根据下文中的 “I controlled my future.”可知,作者从不让任何事或任何人来限制自己,而是自己主宰自己的未来。limit “限制”,符合语境。
10.B 解析:当谈起同工同酬问题时,作者感到懊恼,因为她自己亲身体验到性别差异的存在。分析句子结构可知,前后句之间是因果关系,且前面是果,后面是因。故用because。
11.C 解析:根据语境可知,作者永远不希望看到干了同样的工作,女儿得到的报酬却比儿子的少。never “从不,绝不”。
12.A 解析:为了获取成功,女性不得不打破许多障碍。break down “打破,消除”,符合语境。take after “追赶,跟踪”;lay aside “留存备用,把……放在一边”;put away “猛吃,积蓄,把……收起来”。
13.B 解析:其中一个障碍就是总有人提醒我们不是男性。remind “提醒,使想起”,符合语境。inform “通知,告知”;assure “使确信”;criticize “批判”。
14.A 解析:根据语境可知,作者在此想表达的是女性不能对此置之不理,而要敢于质疑。unchallenged “不被怀疑的,完全接受的,没有异议的”,符合语境。unpunished “未受惩罚的”;uncompleted “未完成的”;uncontrolled “未受控制的,不加约束的”。
15.D 解析:对我们的评价应该依据我们的成就而不是我们的性别。gender “性别”,符合语境。appearance “外貌”;position “职位”;background “出身背景,学历”。
16.B 解析:作者从心底里感谢经历过的伴随成功而来的起起伏伏。grateful “感激的,表示感谢的”,符合语境。superior “更好的,占优势”;indifferent “不感兴趣,
漠不关心”;preferable “更可取的,更合适的”。
17.A 解析:参见上题解析。with “和,随着”,符合语境。
18.B 解析:作者希望她的故事可以激励女性为她们的梦想而奋斗。inspiration “鼓舞人心的人(或事物),使人产生动机的人(或事物)”,符合语境。intention “意图”;solution “解决方法”;expectation “期待”。
19.D 解析:女性必须继续心怀远大的理想,这样做的话,我们就给予下一代女性力量,给予她们追求成功的勇气。下文中的 “the next generation”是暗示。continue “继续”,符合语境。
20.C 解析:参见上题解析。expert “内行的,经验丰富的”;enthusiastic “热情的”;brave “勇敢的”;learned “有学问的,博学的”。
