三级完型填空：ClozeTest4（含答案）For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation1.To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words.In 1 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 2 can mean the difference between success and failure.Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 3 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 4 at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency 5 in the actual stuff of language itself-words.Taken individually, words have 6 meaning until they are strung together into phrased, sentences and paragraphs. 7 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words.He laboriously2 reads one word at a time, often regressing to 8 words or passages.Regression, the tendency to look back over 9 you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading.Another habit which 10 down the speed of reading is vocalization sounding each word either orally or mentally as 11 reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 12 , which moves a bar (or curtain) downthe page at a predetermined speed.The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 13 the reader finds comfortable, in order to stretch him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 14 word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first 15 is sacrificed for speed.But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, 16 your comprehension will improve. Many people have found 17 reading skill drastically improved after some training. 18 Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute 19 the training,now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute.He is delighted that how he can 20 a lot more reading material in a short period of time.1.A.applying B.doing C.offering D.getting2.A.quickly B.easily C.roughly D.decidedly3.A.good B.curious C.poor D.urgent4.A.training B.habits C.situations D.custom5.A.lies bines C.touches D.involves6.A.some B.A lot C.little D.dull7.A.Fortunately B.In factC.LogicallyD.Unfortunately8.A.reuse B.reread C.rewrite D.recite9.A.what B.which C.that D.if10.A.scales B.cuts C.slows D.measures11.A.some one B.one C.he D.reader12.A.accelerator B.actor C.amplifier D.observer13.A.then B.as C.beyond D.than14.A.enabling B.leading C.making D.indicating15.A.meaning prehensionC.gist3D.regression16.A.but B.nor C.or D.for17.A.our B.your C.their D.such a18.A.Look at B.Take C.Make D.Consider19.A.for B.in C.after D.before20.A.master B.go over C.presentD.get throughCloze Test 4答案1.【答案】D【解析】本句意思是谁如果想谋得一份差事。

In many ways, this is 1 for the poor actors who are required to go on repeating the same 2 night after night. One would 3 them to know their parts by heart and 4 have cause to falter(结巴). Yet5 is not always the case.A famous actor in a 6 successful play was once cast in the role of an aristocrat 7 had been imprisoned in Bastille for twenty years. In the last act, a gaoler(监狱长，看守) would always come on to the stage with a letter which he would hand to the prisoner. 8 the noble was expected to read the letter at each 9 , he always insisted that it should be written out in full.One night, the gaoler decided to play a joke 10 his colleague to find out if, after so many performances, he had managed to learn the 11 of the letter by heart. The curtain went up on the final act of the play and revealed (使显露) the aristocrat sitting alone behind bars in his dark cell. Just then, the gaoler 12 with the precious letter in his hands. He entered the 13 and presented the letter to the aristocrat. But the copy he gave him had not been written out in 14 as usual. It was simply a blank sheet of paper. The gaoler looked on eagerly, 15 to see if his fellow actor had at last learnt his lines. The noble stared at the blank sheet of paper for a few seconds. Then, squinting (眯着眼看) his eyes, he said, “The light is 16 . Read the letter to me.”And he promptly handed the sheet of paper to the gaoler. 17 that he could not remember a word of the letter either, the gaoler replied, “The light is indeed dim, sir. I must get my 18 .” With this, he hurried off the stage. Much to the aristocrat’s 19 , the gaoler returned a few moments later with a pair of glasses and the 20 copy of the letter which he proceeded (继续进行)to read to the prisoner.1．A．fortunate B．unfortunate C．happy D．unhappy 2．A．lines B．words C．plays D．roles3．A．want B．ask C．expect D．wish 4．A．always B．never C．sometimes D．often5．A．such B．the thing C．one D．this 6．A．highly B．high C．poorly D．poor 7．A．where B．what C．which D．who 8．A．Because B．Even though C．When D．Though 9．A．play B．performance C．role D．case10．A．with B．in C．on D．to 11．A．pages B．joke C．lines D．contents 12．A．appeared B．desappeared C．came out D．came in 13．A．room B．cell C．stage D．office 14．A．English B．French C．order D．full 15．A．worried B．surprised C．anxious D．afraid 16．A．bright B．dim C．dark D．out17．A．To see B．To find C．Seeing D．Finding 18．A．glasses B．lines C．light D．letters 19．A．surprise B．satisfaction C．anger D．amusement 20．A．usual B．old C．unusual D．newThe annual marathon in my town usually occurred during a heat wave. My job was to 1 behind the runners in an ambulance 2 any of them needed medical attention. The driver and I were in an air-conditioned ambulance behind approximately one hundred athletes 3 to hear the sharp crack of the starting gun.“We’re supposed to stay behind the 4 runner, so take it slowly,”I said to the driver, Doug, as we began to creep forward.“Let’s 5 hope all the runners are fast!”he laughed.As they began to pace themselves, the front runners started to 6 . It was then that my 7 were drawn to the woman in blue silk running shorts and a baggy white T-shirt.“Doug, look!”We knew we were already watching our “last runner”. Her feet were turned in, yet her left knee was turned out. Her legs were so crippled and 8 that it seemed impossible for her to be able to walk, let alone run a marathon.Doug and I watched in 9 as she slowly moved forward. We didn’t say a thing. We would move forward a little bit, then stop and wait for her to 10 some distance. Then we’d slowly move forward a little bit more.Finally, she was the 11 runner left in sight. Tears streamed down my face as I sat on the edge of my seat and watched with awe, amazement and even reverence(敬意)as she 12 forward with sheer determination through the last miles.When the 13 line came into sight, trash(垃圾)lay everywhere and the 14 crowds had long gone home. 15 ，standing straight and ever so proud waited a man. He was 16 one end of a ribbon of crepe paper tied to a post. 17 slowly crossed through, leaving both ends of the paper fluttering behind her.I do not 18 this woman’s name, but that day she became a part of my life —— a part I often depend on. For her, it wasn’t about 19 the other runners or winning a trophy(奖品), it was about finishing what she had set out to do, no matter 20 . When I think things are too difficult or too time-consuming, I get those“I-just-can’t-do-it”, I think of the last runner. Then I realize how easy the task before me really is. 1．A．interview B．watch C．follow D．fall2．A．when B．even if C．because D．in case 3．A．searching B．sitting C．wishing D．waiting 4．A．slow B．last C．wounded D．helpless5．A．just B．ever C．still D．however6．A．run B．miss C．disappear D．lose 7．A．attention B．mind C．sights D．eyes8．A．bent B．hurt C．soft D．painful 9．A．happiness B．silence C．disappointment D．hope 10．A．keep B．make C．gain D．shorten 11．A．single B．only C．last D．careful 12．A．pushed B．fought C．pulled D．jumped 13．A．close B．end C．match D．finish 14．A．seeing B．cheering C．standing D．interesting 15．A．Yet B．But C．Thus D．Therefore 16．A．catching B．handing C．holding D．bringing 17．A．He B．I C．They D．She 18．A．remember B．know C．understand D．forget 19．A．winning B．competing C．beating D．fighting 20．A．what B．where C．when D．whyA true apology is more than just acknowledgement (承认) of a mistake. It’s recognition that something you’ve said or 1 has damaged a relationship ──and that you 2 enough about that relationship to want it 3 .It’s never 4 to acknowledge you are in the wrong. Being human, we all need the art of apology. Look back and think how 5 you’ve judged roughly (草率), said 6 things, pushed yourself 7 at the expense (在使某人受损的情况下) of a friend.

Her father and the trainer were going along in a boat beside her.At ten o’clock, rain began falling. 5 , Trudy trod(踩)water while drinking and eating a chicken leg. Then she started swimming 6 . The wind was 7 and the sea became rougher.Late 8 the wind became even worse. The trainer 9 it was useless trying to finish.

However, the wedding ceremonies(仪式) are not real ones but imitations(模拟). These ceremonies sometimes become so noisy that the loud laughter 1 out the voice of the “minister”. 2 the two students getting married often begin to laugh quietly.The teacher, Mr. Allen, believes that marriage is a difficult and 3 business. He wants young people to understand that there must be many 4 after marriage. He believes that the 5 for these psychological and financial adjustments(心理和财政调整) should be understood before people 6 .Mr. Allen doesn’t only 7 his students to major problems faced 8 marriage such as illness or unemployment. He also lets them know the 9 problems they will face every day. He wants young people to know about all the difficulties and troubles that can throw marriage to the 10 point. He even familiarizes his students with the problems of divorce(离婚)and the 11 that divorced men must pay child 12 money for their children and sometimes pay monthly some money to their 13 .It has been nervous for some of the students to 14 the problems that a married couple often faces. 15 they took the course, they had not felt much 16 about the problems of marriage. 17 both students and parents feel that Mr. Allen’s course is 18 and have supported the 19 publicly.
