When I was a teenager, my dad did everything he could to advise me against becoming a brewer(釀酒人). He’d 36 his life brewing beer for local breweries only to make a living, 37 were his father and grandfather before him. He didn’t want me 38 near a vat (釀酒用的桶)of beer.
So I did as he asked. I got good 39 , went to Harvard and in 1971 was accepted into a graduate program there that 40 me to study law and business at the same time.
In my second year of grade school, I began to realize that I’d 41 done anything but go to school. So, at 24 I decided to drop out. 42 , my parents didn’t think this was a great idea. But I felt strongly that you can’t 43 till you’re 65 to do what you want in life.
I packed my stuff into a bus and headed to Colorado to become an instructor at Outward Bound. Three years later, I was ready to go back to 44 . I finished Harvard and got a highly paid job at the Boston Consulting Group. Still, after working there five years, I 45 . Is this what I want to be doing when I’m 50? At that time, Americans paid 46 money of beer in low quality. Why not make good beer for 47 ? I thought.
I decided to give up my job to become 48 . When I told Dad, he was 49 , but in the end he 50 me. I called my beer Samuel Adams, 51 the brewer and patriot who helped to start the Boston Tea party. 52 I sold the beer direct to beer drinkers to get 53 out. Six weeks later, at the Great American Beer Festival, Samuel Adams Boston Lager won the top prize for American beer. In the end I was destined to be a brewer. My 54 to the young is simple: Life is very 55 , so don’t rush to make decisions. Life doesn’t let you plan.

解析試題分析:
【小題1】B spend time doing sth. 是固定結(jié)構(gòu),意思是“把時(shí)間花在做……上”。
【小題2】C 倒裝句。“so+倒裝句”表示“另一個(gè)人或物的情況與前面相同”。
【小題3】A anywhere用于否定句中。
【小題4】C 據(jù)上下文可知,作者服從了父親的安排并獲得了良好的成績(jī)。
【小題5】D 學(xué)校允許我學(xué)習(xí)法律和商業(yè)。allow sb to do sth.“允許某人做某事”。
【小題6】A never...anything=nothing。
【小題7】B 我想退學(xué),顯然父母不會(huì)同意,其他不合題意。
【小題8】D “不能等到人老了才做自己愿做的事”。
【小題9】A 下文finished Harvard提供了回來學(xué)習(xí)的信息,因而為go back to school。
【小題10】C 這句話是作者對(duì)自己生活的疑惑。
【小題11】C 本句意思是啤酒很貴,但質(zhì)量不佳。
【小題12】D 上文提到Americans 高價(jià)買質(zhì)量不好的啤酒,因而本句應(yīng)為為Americans制造高質(zhì)量的啤酒。
【小題13】B 從下文可知,作者要放棄原來的工作,成為釀酒人。
【小題14】A 當(dāng)我告訴父親時(shí),他對(duì)我的想法不是很滿意或感興趣,而是奇怪,因?yàn)槲恼乱婚_始就告訴我們作者的父親不想讓他成為釀酒人。
【小題15】B but表轉(zhuǎn)折,表明最后他同意和支持我,故答案為B。
【小題16】D name sth... after為一固定搭配。 after有“根據(jù).依據(jù)”的意思。
【小題17】C also “而且”,作者首先給他的啤酒起了一個(gè)好名字,同時(shí)又直銷給喝酒人。
【小題18】B 把“酒的名字”傳出去,使這一“name”有了名氣。
【小題19】A 從后面的幾句話可知,作者是在給讀者“忠告”,advice“忠告.勸告.建議”。
【小題20】D 從“不要急于做決定”,可知作者是想表達(dá)“人的一生很長(zhǎng)久”的意思,所以也就有了“生活不一定按你的計(jì)劃進(jìn)行”。
考點(diǎn):考查夾敘夾議類完型
點(diǎn)評(píng):本文設(shè)空合理,對(duì)上下文的串聯(lián)考查全面,且有很強(qiáng)的人生哲理性。要求考生在上下文語(yǔ)境中強(qiáng)化詞義的辨析與理解串聯(lián),分析語(yǔ)法規(guī)則,合理運(yùn)用。

One night a policeman came and told Mrs. West that her house had been flattened by a 500-pounder. She 16 nearly everything she owned.
When that sort of thing happened, the rest of us helped the 17 ones. So before we 18 that morning, I stood beside Frank and 19 my right foot against his. They were about the same size.

Albert Einstein said, “In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity.” Once __41 __, such opportunities are like valuable diamonds hidden in the sand.
Several years ago, I spoke at a school about how we were surrounded by “___42___ ” if we could only recognize them. A man stopped by to see me, and I remembered him as somebody who had suffered through a(n) ___43___ divorce (離婚) and was examining what was most important to him. He took a small ___44___ out of his pocket. Here is what he said to me that day.
“I ___45___ on this stone when I was leaving church last Sunday. You had spoken about ___46___ opportunities—diamonds. I put the stone in my ___47___ to remind me to look for those “diamonds” that I need. I have been trying to sell my business . On Monday morning, a man who seemed interested in ___48___ some of my stock (股票) stopped by. I thought, ‘Here’s my diamond—don’t let it ___49___!’ I sold the entire stock to him by noon. Now my next diamond is to find a new ___50___ !”
Not long afterward, he did find a new and better job. From then on, he decided to keep his stone with him all the time as a ___51___ to look for “diamonds” as he dug through the ___52___ of life.
Richard DeVos is right when he points out. “This is an exciting world. It is filled with opportunities. Great moments wait around every corner.” Those moments are diamonds that, ___53___ left unrecognized, will be forever lost.
Are you looking for “diamonds” every day? If not, you may ___54___ pass them by! Perhaps there is a diamond of opportunity hidden in the difficulty you’re ___55___ now.

請(qǐng)認(rèn)真閱讀下面短文,從短文后各題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng),并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。
We often talk about ourselves as if we have permanent genetic defects (缺陷) that can never be changed. “I’m impatient.” “I’m always behind.” “I always put things 31 !” You’ve surely heard them. Maybe you’ve used them to describe 32 .
These comments may come from stories about us that have been 33 for years—often from 34 childhood. These stories may have no 35 in fact. But they can set low expectations for us. As a child, my mother said to me, “Marshall, you have no mechanical skills, and you will never have any mechanical skills for the rest of your life.” How did these expectations 36 my development? I was never 37 to work on cars or be around 38 . When I was 18, I took the US Army’s Mechanical Aptitude Test. My scores were in the bottom for the entire nation!
Six years later, 39 , I was at California University, working on my doctor’s degree. One of my professors, Dr. Bob Tannbaum, asked me to write down things I did well and things I couldn’t do. On the positive side, I 40 down, “research, writing, analysis, and speaking.” On the 41 side, I wrote, “I have no mechanical skills.”
Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life 42 and told him about my 43 performance on the Army test. Bob then asked, “ 44 is it that you can solve 45 mathematical problems, but you can’t solve simple mechanical problems?”
Suddenly I realized that I didn’t 46 from some sort of genetic defect. I was just living out expectations that I had chosen to 47 . At that point, it wasn’t just my family and friends who had been 48 my belief that I was mechanically hopeless. And it wasn’t just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself, “You can’t do this!” I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to remain true. 49 , if we don’t treat ourselves as if we have incurable genetic defects, we can do well in almost 50 we choose.
