备战2020高考英语复习专题五、阅读7选5 解题技巧剖析命题方向点播：七选五是一类完成性阅读，在题型上和完形填空很类似，不同之处在于一完形填空是选词，而七选五是选句子。

七选五不仅考察同学们的阅读理解能力，更是考察了对文章结构的完整性的把握，在历年高考中都占了10分，是一个不可忽视的题目。

一、七选五解题方法：解题时，同学们要在理解文章整体的情况下，充分考虑语境和空格前后的句子，注意句子之间的逻辑联系，尤其要学会把握信息词（选项中出现的与文章中相同或相近的词），站在作者的写作立场，快速准确的选出最符合文章原意的答案。

具体可以分为以下步骤：1.快速浏览选项，并勾画出选项中的关键词汇，比如：指示代词、连接词和转折词等。

2.回到短文，细读首段和空格前后的句子，分析句子，并联系上下文，了解文章大意，为以后的理解做铺垫。

3.当我们了解文章大意后，要明确每一个空是填一个整个句子还是半个句子，这一点十分重要，它能够帮助我们迅速确定某些空的选项范围。

比如，有一个空的结尾处没有标点符号，后文紧跟着一个句子的后半部分，很显然这时我们需要填的是半个句子，这时便可以在七个选项中找到的是半个句子的选项，从而缩小选择范围。

4.明确关联关系，任何句子都是要么和上文有联系，要么和下文有联系，要么和上下文都有联系。

5.带入通读，复查。

做完题目切忌直接离开，七选五的特点在于，错一道，往往还会错另外的一道或几道，所以，当你发现自己有一处填的有问题时，一定要同时检查其他空。

二、题型分类解析。

七选五题型可以大致分为以下三类：1、指代关系类；2、逻辑关系类；3、整体结构类。

三、代词类解题技巧。

英语表达中的代词出现的频率极高，代词的作用是指代前面提及的名词或形容词等，常见的如：人称代词指代、同义词指代、近义词指代等。

巧妙利用这样的指代关系和根据代词的单复数差异可以准确而快速地解题。

七选五强化训练李仕才（一）Do you know how to deal with failure at school? Four steps will help you get the most out of each failure and more on.1 When you feel bad after failing, talk with your parents or good friends, or any other adult. Then decide to take the duty to improve yourself. Read the teachers’comments on your test carefully.Ask yourself what you were trying to do and why you failed. 2 Maybe you didn’t have all the information you needed; maybe you made a mistake or a poor decision. If so, give yourself a pat on the back. Fewer people ever get something right the first time they try it, and often it takes them many times. 3 Sometimes the failure isn’t because of something you did or didn’t do; it is someone else’s fault. But don’t spend time blaming them; instead, move on toward your goals.4 . Review the situation to see what your choices are. There isa different between making a decision and giving up. Deciding to follow a better way is one thing; simply walking away means you really have failed.Keep trying again. Successful people are different because they choose their next steps instead of just reacting to feelings. If a goal still important to you, figure out what to do and go after it again. 5 .A. No pains, no gains.B. Don’t give up easilyC. Failure is unavoidableD. Remove your bad feelingsE. If it isn’t, do your best on something elseF. Actually it was because you were very lazyG. Usually it was because you were trying out a new skill or learning a new subject.（二）Does meeting new people make you nervous? If so, you are not alone. But making a good first impression isn’t as hard as you might think. It just involves a few simple choices.Look your best1 But you don’t need to look like a model to make a good impression. You just need to take care of yourself. Make sure your clothing is clean, not wrinkled and appropriate for the situation2 . Stand tallThe way you stand, sit and move tells others a lot about you. Standing up straight makes you look and feel confident. When you approach someone, make eye contact and smile to show you’re friendly and interested. 3Speak upSpeak loudly and clearly enough so that people don’t have to struggle to hear you. If you don’t know what to say, ask questions. 4 When people are talking, pay attention to what they’re saying rather than planning what you’ll say next. And if you’re not sure what they mean, ask!Value peopleMost importantly, show people you care. Your concerns for them will be obvious if you smile and listen carefully.5 Don’t keep them waiting. Everyone you meet is important.So make eye contact, smile and greet them. They’ll appreciate it and others may be watching.A. And remember, you are important, tooB. Respect other people’s time, tooC. Most people enjoy talking about themselvesD. Then greet them with a firm handshakeE. One survey said blue and black are best for job interviewF. Obviously your appearance influences people’s impression of youG. Don’t forget little things like brushing your teeth（三）Good friendships improve all aspects of our life, reducing stress, providing comfort and joy, strengthening our health, and preventing loneliness. Friendship is a two-way street. Being a good friend to others brings them all of the above benefits. 1 However, your old friendships may simply change over time as interests and situations in your life change. So friendships take time to form and take even more time and effort to deepen. Here are steps that can help, you be a good friend and keep your friendships growing.1. Be the friend that you would like to have. 2 Be reliable, thoughtful, trustworthy, and willing to share yourself and your time.2. Invest (投入) in the friendship. 3 Find things you enjoy doing with your friend and devote the time to doing them, even when you’re busy or stressed.3. 4 Don’t be too dependent or needy. Don’t set too many expectations. Be sure not to abuse your friend’s generosity. Everyone is unique (唯一的). Everyone needs to be alone or spend time with other people as well.4. Be forgiving (宽恕的). 5 You should learn to forgive others. So when your friend does something wrong, don’t keep blaming them. Try to find a way to get over, the problem and move on. It will often deepen the friendship between you.A. Give your friend enough space.B. Sometimes things don’t go exactly as you expect.C. Treat your friends just as you want them to treat you.D. No friendship will develop without regular attention.E. No one is perfect and every friend will make mistakes.F. Good friends don’t require you to always agree with them.G. It also makes you feel needed and adds purpose to your life.（四）How to Be a Great Best FriendEveryone wants to be a great best friend but doesn't know how or where to start that perfect friendship. The following will help you.Be your own best friend first.1 If you can't respect yourself, then you can't respect others. Understand what values are important to you and stick to them. Seek out others who honor those values because you'll only end up hurting yourself and possibly others if those people don't have the same values as you.Trust each other.2 All you have to do really is make sure you can both trust each other. Don’t try to trick or use your friend to your advantage; you need to make them know they can trust you.Learn to listen. Nobody likes a best friend who just talks and talks, but never listens. If you're a chatterbox, try to develop good listening skills. Whenever your best friend says something, listen carefully and say something._3 If they ask for advice, listen carefully and give themthe best advice you can.Care for your best friend. If your best friend is upset, ask them what's wrong, They might not tell you straight away, but they should in the end.4 Understand that certain things are private, and trust that they'd be just as patient with you if you were in their shoes.Let your friend have other friends, too. If your best friend picks another friend over you, try to be friends with their friend too.5 Everyone is always looking for new friends. But never leave the old one; your loyalty is what the other person expects and counts on every day.A. Learn how to respect yourself.B. Maybe you guys can be a group of friends!C. Don't interrupt while they're talking to you.D. Best friends are the most valuable friends you have.E. If they don't tell you, don’t get angry at them.F. To be a great best friend really doesn't take much.G. Take time out of your day to appreciate the funny things in life.（五）As we all know, it is very difficult to remember all the contents of a long passage. For that reason, it is wise to make notes of information that is necessary for the students when they read a passage. The result is a short of the passage, and it contains all aspects of the passage. 1I ask the students to follow these steps.●Familiarize with(通晓)the material. After students have read the passage or a section of it, they can start summarizing. 2●Select important information. I ask the students to go through each paragraph, sentence by sentence, asking themselves which information is necessary to the argument. They should point outcomplete sentences as much as possible. 3 Pay attention to these important points: author, title, reason why the passage was written, purpose, theme, key words, link words, all major aspects, explanations and author’s opinion.●Paraphrase(释义)the information. I ask the students to point out the information of the previous step in their own words. 4 They should try to shorten long and complex sentences into much shorter ones.● 5 Let students make sure that the connection between sentences is clear and reasonable and that each group of sentences smoothly fit in one paragraph.A. Adjust the length of the summaryB. Insert links(连接词)between sentences and paragraphs.C. A choice is to underline important sentences or phrases.D. In this way students can grasp the main ideas of the passage.E. But we know reading is a practice of long period and we must have a lot of practiceF. The length of the section read through depends on the structure and the complexity(复杂)of the passage.G. And writing down information in their own words forces them to completely understand what they are writing down.（六）Remembering names is an important social skill.1●Recite and repeat in conversation.When you hear a person’s name, repeat it. Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips. You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial.●Ask the other person to recite and repeat.You can let other people help you remember their names. After you’ve been introduced to someone, ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you. 2●Admit you don’t knowAdmitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed. Most of them will feel sympathy if you say. “I’m working to remember names better. 3 What is it again?”●Use associationsLink each person yon meet with one thing out find interesting or unusual. For example, you could make a mental note: “Vicki Cheng---tall, black hair.”To reinforce you’re your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible.●4When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later.●Go earlyConsider going early to conferences, parties and classes. Sometimes just a few people show up on time.5 And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to others---an automatic review for you.A. Remember a name at a time.B.

Professor Deborah Tannen, of Georgetown University, has noticed differences in the style of boys' and girls' conversations from an early age. According to her study, little girls' conversation is less clear than boys' and expresses more doubts. 2These differences will continue into adult life, she says. In public conversations, men talk most and interrupt other speakers more than women do. In private conversations, men and women speak in almost equal amounts. 3 Professor Tannen believes that, for women, private talking is a way to establish and test intimacy (亲密). For men, private talking is a way to explore the power structure (结构) of a relationship.4 “When a woman teaches another woman,” says Professor Tannen, “she is more likely to take a sharing approach and to encourage her student to join in. When a man teaches a woman, however, he wants to show that he has more knowledge and power in conversation.5 ”Some scientists who are studying speech think that the brain is preprogrammed for language. As we are usually taught to speak by women, it seems likely that the brain must have a sexual bias (偏向) in its programming; otherwise, male speech patterns would not arise at all.A. And he uses his language to show this.B. Do men talk in the same way as women?C. However, they say things in a different style.D. Women are far more silent than men in public conversations.E. Little boys use conversation to establish status with their listeners.F. More women are encouraged to help each other, talking about their doubts.G. Teaching is one job where the differences between men's and women's ways of talking show.CThe exciting game of footballFootball is one of the most popular sports in the US. 1 That kind involves kicking a round ball into a net and is called soccer in North America. American football, however, uses a ball that is pointy (尖的) on both ends. While it does include some kicking, there is more throwing and catching involved.In football, there are 11 players from each team on the field at one time. Each team tries to move the ball across the opposing team's goal line to score. The quarterback (四分卫) throws the ball, and the person who catches it tries to run past the opposing team's players. The way to stop someone running with the ball is to tackle him. That means hitting right against him and trying to knock him down to the ground. 2The biggest professional football organization in the US is the National Football League (NFL). The NFL championship game is called the Super Bowl, and it is one of the most watched television events around the globe. 3 For example, millions of toilets are flushed (冲洗) at the same time during half-time. Also, 14,500 tons of chips are consumed during the game.Most sports fans are happy with just sitting in the stands and cheering on their teams. 4 They dress themselves in their team's colors. Some of the excitement happens before the games even begin. Fans gather and hang out in the parking lots outside the stadiums and have huge parties. 5 There are also endless amounts of sodas and beers. All of these combined with the game itself make football one huge and popular social event.A. However, it isn't the game of football played in other parts of the world.B. As a result, professional players have to be strong and quick.C. It is an exciting sport that can sometimes get pretty rough.D. There are many amazing facts about the Super Bowl.E. It is also the wealthiest sports league in the world.F. Everything from sandwiches to chips is served.G. For some, that is not enough.DThere are a number of tips that you can follow to help you find a job that suits your personality.List your strong and weak pointsBefore you start your job search, take some time to think about your strong and weak points. 1 If you are excellent at managing your time, for example, a job in project management, or one that involves organising others, could be perfect.Ask others for their opinionsAlthough you should know yourself better than anyone else, there are times when a second opinion is needed. 2 They may come up with ideas that you haven't considered.You should, however, make sure that they aren't so protective of you that they persuade you not to push yourself, or encourage you so much that you aim too high.Find out what potential jobs involve3 Make sure you do as much research as possible to determine exactly what you will have to do. An office job may sound very safe if you are shy, but if you then find that you have to give regular presentations, you may not be cut out for it after all.4When looking for a job, many people have an idea of what they would like to be in the future. However, that is often little more than a dream and, even if it is possible to reach that goal, it may involve years of hard work that you don't enjoy. 5 If you can find a job that mirrors what makes you happy in life, then the chances are that you will enjoy it and it will match your personality type.A. Take a personality testB. Consider what delights youC. Think about what makes you happy and then analyse why.D. Finding a job that suits your personality is very important.E. Ask your friends and family what sort of job they think would suit you best.F. Sometimes, it isn't immediately obvious what a job will involve until you start it.G.

For example, if a wife “leads her husband by the nose”, she makes him do whatever she wants him to do.2 They will not change their opinions or positions on anything. If someone is “hard-nosed”, chances are that he will never “pay through the nose”, or pay too much money for an object or service.It is always helpful when people “keep their nose out of other people's business”. They do not interfere(干涉). The opposite o f this is someone who “noses around” all the time. 3 He is considered “nosey”. Someone who “keeps his nose to the grindstone(旋转磨石)” works very hard. This can help a worker “keep his nose clean” or stay out of trouble.One unusual expression is “that is no skin off my nose”. This means that a situation does not affect or concern me. We also say that sometimes a person “cuts off his nose to spite his face”. That is, he makes a situation worse for himself by doing something foolish because he is angry. More problems can develop if a person “looks down his nose” at someone or something. 4 This person might also “turn up his nose” at something that he considers not good enough. This person thinks he is better than everyone else. He “has his nose in the air”.5 They refuse to obey orders or do any work. Maybe these students do not know the correct answers. My mother always told me, if you study hard, the answers should be “right under your nose” or easily seen.A. This kind of person is interested in other people's private matters.B. In school, some students “thumb their nose” at their teacher.C. The nose also has a lot of other functions.D. Some people are said to be “hard-nosed”.E. The nose is also used in many popular expressions.F. He is interested in things that concern his work.G.

So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule: Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a p ain are when I’m already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think about of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials ready? 2 Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal, make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? 3 it takes around the same amount of time to make more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal.4 This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation. It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule.

Identity theft is a crime in which your personal information is stolen by someone and is used in an illegal way. When your identity is stolen, the thief often does fraud (诈骗) with that. He may get a credit card in your name and spend it carelessly without paying the bills; 1 and you have to be responsible for the traffic accidents he causes…Why is identity theft becoming so common? 2 . And the wealth of personal details people post on social networks such as Facebook also makes it easier for identity thieves to obtain personal information.Many people are not aware of the problems caused by this crime.

It has classrooms and teachers and more than 275,000 graduates. 1 Instead, they are McDonald’s restaurant owners and workers learning how to do their jobs better.Hamburger University isn’t a business school. It’s a corporate university (企业大学). 2 As a result, the school teaches skills and methods that help improve efficiency in McDonald’s restaurants.Hamburger University is one of the world’s most famous corporate universities, but it is far from unique. 3 Companies operate corporate universities for many different reasons. Some improve the technical skills of employees. Others focus on training people in management. Still others help employees develop skills like learning to learn, creative thinking and problem solving.4 Their students often come from distant places and have full-time jobs. To make training possible for students, corporate universities have to use very flexible teaching methods. Some companies pay for their employees to attend specific classes at a local university. Others work with outside educators to develop courses for employees to take at their workplaces. Still others develop their own programs consisting of weekend and online courses.Corporate universities may never compete with traditional schools. But they have changed the way many see education. Training has always been difficult for busy employees. 5 Through them, continuing education is possible for many who, otherwise, wouldn’t have the chance to study.A.

I enjoyed staying with my grandparents when I was young child.1 People knew everyone, their kids, their pets and their ancestors. The relationship with them continued to grow as I grew and got older.2 She would make little sandwiches and we’d have tea parties. She’s plant flowers and carefully tend them. I remember the small thimble she would use while doing her needlework. Placing her thimble on her finger she’s remark: “I wouldn’t want to sew without one.”A few years ago when my grandmother passed away, I bade farewell to a loving grandmother.3 We had just had tea together a couple of moths earlier, on her 91st birthday. I missed her very much, but I noticed it particularly on my birthday, as there was no card from my grandmother. She’d never forgotten my birthday!On one particular birthday when I was feeling a little low, something happened to make me feel like she was sharing that special day with me. 4 They are what she had made, and suddenly I felt something inside one pillow. It was small and hard. I moved the object to a seam that I carefully opened, and to my delight out came a tiny silver thimble!5 Not realizing it had fallen off her finger, she sewed it in that little pillow that I just “happened” to fluff. I carefully laid the thimble alongside the others I’ve collected over the years, where I could continue to see the gift God chose to reveal to me.What a precious memory of a very special lady who somehow, I knew, was delighted to sew her thimble inside my pillow!A. How quickly our lives can change!B. I refused to go to the small town later.C.I loved the small town they lived in.D. I was arranging some colorful pillows.E. How sad I was to be unable to see a loving grandmother.F. Grandma was always using her hands for something exciting.G. How happy I was to find something that had been a part of her!第九篇：Britain’s high streets are dying slowlyTwenty years ago, the prosperous high street(繁华商业区) was the heart of most cities. It was crowded with customers. 1 Nowadays, high streets are declining, with very few shops and shoppers. With about 14 shops down every day, Britain’s high streets are dying little by little.2 It’s fairly easy to understand. To start with, people are spending less because of the economic recessi on(衰退). On top of that, more and more people are using the Internet to do their shopping. And it is not easy for shopkeepers in the high streets, either.3 Finally, there are the out-of-town retail parks with free car parking that sell just about everything at very low prices.What can be done? Prime Minister David Cameron has hired Mary Portas, a British business woman and star of TV show Mary Queen of Shops, to bring some life back into Britain’s high streets. She's talked about creating “magnets(磁石)” to attract people back to the centre. 4 In one town, a bicycle rickshaw(人力车) service is delivering people's shopping to their homes. 5 , where children can be cared for while parents are shopping.Members of the public have also voiced their opinions. “My ideal shopping center is one where there’s a wide selection of attractive looking shops, with cheap parking and good public transport links,” said a 28-year-old man. “I’d like to see Night Shopping evenings where shops are open through to 10 pm or later,” said a 22-year-old girl.A. They have to pay increasing high rents.B. But he is not the only one to solve the problem.C. But that’s all changed.D. In another town, they set up a nursery,E. In another town, they set up night shopping centers,F. They can make a fortune overnight.G. Why are high streets in such a desperate situation?第十篇：For some people，the warmest memories from childhood come from being read a great story． 1 It develops children’s language skills and increases the ir ability to succeed in school and，later，work．A new report by the American Academy of Pediatrics says reading aloud is so important that parents should start as soon as their children are born and continue to read aloud even after their children can read by themselves．They say parents should also point to and talk about pictures in books for infants(婴幼儿)． 2The company Scholastic is a major U．S．publisher of children’s books．Every two years，Scholastic publishes a report on American reading attitudes and habits．The 2015 report says only 31 percent of children in the U．S．read a book for fun almost every day．3 One is simply to have books in the home．Elizabeth Lyttleton，the mother of three，is lucky．Her mother once wrote and illustrated children’s books，so the family always have plenty to read．She says all her children learn from books—but in different ways.4 Researchers from the Scholastic company found that 80％of children surveyed —of all ages—say they love being read to．And children ages 6 to 11 whose parents do not read to them anymore say they miss it．5 _ Of all the six to 17-year-olds in the Scholastic study，more than 90％said their favorite books are the ones they chose for themselves．A．The Scholastic report also suggests permitting children to choose their own books．B．Scholastic also identifies some ways to develop a love of reading in a child．C．A book does not have to be serious to be good for kids．D．For young children，parents should ask questions about the book．E．Do children still read for fun?F．Another way to develop a reading habit in children is to read to them．G．But reading to children does more than create warm memories．第十一篇：Helping Students Find Their Writing V oicesOne of the most frustrating things for writing teachers is reading papers that simply lack style. When all of the research has been completed and all of the sentences are structured well, but the paper still lacks some pizzazz（活力），it can be boring to grade. If you are searching for ways to help your students find their voices, why not try making students themselves the topic of the writing? 1Who are you?One of the most difficult questions for students to answer is: “Who are you?” 2 In doing this, through writing, students will start to see their personalities differently and, hopefully, be able to add a feature to their writing.Dear John3Encourage them to write to a famous person they’ve always admired, and then the one they absolutely hate. Explore how their language changes between the two letters. When students know their audiences, it is much easier for them to add the kind of personality their audience wants to see．4When students write about what matters most to them, they will often give you the best writing you’ve ever seen. You’ll get those when you ask questions that hit home. When students have something to say about a given topic, it can be easier for them to get their ideas down and then work on their writing style.Get the words on paper, and then edit themThe most valuable lesson students can learn is to write first, and edit later. Have students written for five minutes about their topics. If they can get their ideas down on paper, that’s 90% of the battle. 5 This can help them realize that, once they have the ideas down, the rest is just fine tuning（微调）. Once they have this skill mastered, it’s easy for them to start adding their own personal voices to their papers.A.What matters to you?B. What style is taught in class?C. When they write about themselves, students’ voices often shine through.D. Writing letters is a great way for students to explore their writing style.E. Have your students explored who they are and what makes them unique.F. V oice is that magical quality which is able to make a creative writing idea sing!G. After that, have them edit these ideas into a really strong introductory paragraph.第十二篇：How to Sleep BetterIf you’re having trouble getting good sleep through the night (turning，waking up more than once，for example)，th is text will tell you what you can do to ensure a peaceful night’s sleep.1．Get on schedule. Changing your sleeping time by more than an hour can severely disturb your sleep quality. 1 For example，if you normally wake up at 6 am on weekdays to get to work，you might go to bed around 10 pm，because that’s when you start to feel sleepy，and it’s also a good time to ensure 8 hours of sleep. If，on the weekend，you sleep until 9 a.m，you probably won’t be able to fall asleep that night until 1 a.m.2. 2 Wait at least three hours after dinner before going to sleep. Digestion slows down while asleep，and a full stomach may interrupt sleep .Similarly，you should avoid going to bed on an empty stomach，as a completely empty stomach may equally disturb your sleeping patterns.3. 3 Exposure to light during the time when you’re supposed to be sleeping can disrupt your body’s internal clock. Turn your light off，or use a very dim night light. 4 They include windows，LED clocks，computer lights and cable boxes.4．Change your sleeping position. You may think that it’s impossible to control what position you sleep in since you aren’t fully aware of what you are doing，but it is possible and it can make a considerable difference. 5 A．Try to avoid all sources of light.B．Keep the room as dark as possible.C．Make note of unusual circumstances.D．Be mindful of what you eat or drink before bed.E．Sleep is considered to be adequate only when there is no daytime sleepiness.F．In other words，sudden change of sleeping time will affect your “biological clock”．G．If you wake up in the middle of the night，make an effort to have a comfortable position.第十三篇：Seeing with SoundAccording to a British news report，some blind people may finally get a chance to “see”．1 Dr. Peter Meijer，a scientist at Philips Research Laboratories in the Netherlands，has developed a new system called the vOICe．The three middle letters in vOICe stand for “Oh，I see．” Meijer’s groundbreaking technology may change the lives of visually impaired people all over the world．A wearable setup of vOICe system consists of a head-mounted camera，stereo headphones and a notebook PC．The system translates visual images from a camera into complex sounds． 2The program is based on the theory that people can hear certain sounds and learn to translate them into meaningful mental images．Everything has its own unique sound． 3 The height of an object or person could be determined by pitch(音调)．And a built-in color identifier speaks out color names when it is turned on．What the vOICe users have to learn is which sound goes with which object．Meijer says that he is counting on the brain’s ability to adapt．4 Within two weeks，most people who experiment with the vOICe system are able to identify objects such as walls and doors．They are also able to identify certain situations，including whether the lights in a room are on or off．5 Meijer thinks that translating will eventually become automatic for many users of the vOICe，bringing a form of vision to them for the very first time．A．Brighter areas sound louder than darker areas．B．It then sends these sounds to a person through headphones．C．However, they are not learning to see with their eyes；they are learning to see with their ears．D．The vOICe system is aiming to treat blindness by translating images from a camera into audio signals．E．Meijer supposes that the brain is interested in the information “content”，but not the information “carrier”．F．To evaluate the new system’s effectiveness, a nu mber of visually impaired people were chosen to test the v0ICe．G．Over time, some users have even learned to “watch” television or “recognize” the outlines of buildings as they walk．第十四篇：What A Real Leader DoesIs a leader merely a manager ? What should we expect from our leaders ? 1Yes, we do need leaders. On our own, we lack the vision, direction , and strength to reach our goals. We were all in need of guidance when we were children —— even the cleverest child could not possibly be expected to make certain crucial decisions. Once we become adults, with the capacity to reason for ourselves, we are facing so many pressures of daily survival that we rarely find time and energy to focus on life’s larger issues. And when we do, our emotions and subjectivity limit our vision and our movement.2 When we are occupied with our self-interest —— petty or great, a leader sends out a wake-up call, alerting us to seek the true priorities in life.With so many people trying to be leaders there days, how do we recognize a true leader ? To answer this question, we must step back and ask : 3A true leader wants nothing more than to make people stand on their own, as leaders in their own right. Instead of trying to blind us with his or her brilliance, a true leader reflects our own light back to us, so that we can see ourselves anew.The differences between a leader and a boss : A boss drives their employees, and a leader coaches them. A boss inspires fear, and a leader generates enthusiasm. A boss says “I”, and a leader says “We”. A boss places blame for breakdowns, and a leader fixes them. 4Decide now. Decide today. Are you going to be a real leader ? Are you going to develop real leaders ? 5 Remember, a leader with vision has a clear, vivid picture of where to go, as well as a firm grasp on what success looks like and how to achieve it.A．A leader provides a new perspective, inspiring us to abandon our narrow field of vision.B．This sense of urgency is just as important in a leader as a sense of vision.C．And do we really need leaders in the first place ?D．Are you going to inspire and generate enthusiasm ?E．We have a CEO who can direct thousands of employees toward a single objective, and politicians who inspire millions of citizens to support them.F．What is it that a leader is really trying to accomplish ?G．A boss knows how it is done, and a leader shows how it is done.第十五篇：What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange and red? 1 ．Do you prefer grey and blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead．You tend to be a pessimist(悲观主义者)．At least，this is what psychologists tell us，and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference，as well as the effect that colors have on human beings． 2 ．If you happen to love brown，you did so，as soon as you opened your eyes，or at least as soon as you could see clearly．3 ．On the one hand，a yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one；and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the coldest winter day．4 ．A black bridge over the Thames River, near London．used to be the scene of more suicides(自杀)than any other bridge in the area—until it was repainted green．The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply．Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue．5 ．It is self-evident that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey．A．On the other hand，black is depressing．B．The rooms are painted in different colors as you like．C．They tell us that we do not choose our favorite color as grow up—we are born with our preference．D．If you do，you must be an optimist(乐观主义者)，a leader or an active person who enjoys life．E．Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active.。
