Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle, look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life.__40__ instead, it's a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness.A.Learn to really trust yourself.B.It is putting confidence in someone.C.Stop regarding yourself as the victim.D.Remember that you can expect the best in return.E.They've been too badly hurt and they can't bear to let it happen again.F.This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships.G.Seeing the positive side of things doesn't mean you're ignoring what happened.【试题分析】文章主要讲述了人们一旦失去了信任,如何再次建立信任。

Suddenly, a look of 56 shot across his face, erasing the disbelief. I don’t think I’ll ev er 57 that moment. Later that day, he worked silently on the 58 all afternoon.

第一编专题二真题题组A(2018·北京)Why Do We Get Angry?Anger seems simple when we are feeling it,but the causes of anger are various. Knowing these causes can make us examine our behavior,and correct bad habits. The main reasons we get angry are triggering(触发)events,personality traits(特征),and our assessment of situations. __1. F__Triggering events for anger are so many that to describe them all would take hundreds of pages. However,here are some examples:being cut off in traffic,a deadline approaching,experiencing physical pain,and much more. __2. G__ The reason why someone is triggered by something and others are not is often due to one’s personal history and psychological traits.Each person,no matter who they are,has psychological imbalances. People who have personality traits that connect with competitiveness and low upset tolerance are much more likely to get angry. __3. E__ Also,sometimes pre-anger does not have to do with a lasting condition,but rather a temporary state before a triggering event has occurred.__4. A__ Sometimes even routine occurrences become sources of pre-anger,or anger itself. Sometimes ignorance and negative (消极的) outlooks on situations can create anger.__5. D__ However,anger can easily turn violent,and it is best to know the reasons for anger to appear in order to prevent its presence. With these main reasons in mind,we can evaluate our level of anger throughout the day and prevent cases of outbursts by comprehending the reasons for our feelings.A.Our attitude and viewpoint on situations can create anger within us as well.B.But some types of situations can help us to get rid of the occurrence of anger.C.Anger is rarely looked upon as a beneficial character trait,and is usually advised to reduce it.D.Anger is a particularly strong feeling and maybe people think that they have reasons to feel angry.E.Having these personality traits implies the pre-anger state,where anger is in the background of your mind.F.Understanding these reasons will control our own anger if we are willing to evaluate ourselves with a critical eye.G.Not everyone acts the same in response to events,and that is why what triggers one person may or may not trigger another.文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。

Things may not always go as planned, but being resourceful can help you stay calm and work your way out of tricky situations.Being resourceful means finding smart and creative ways to solve a problem, using whatever resources you have at the time.__1__ They can also be anything else thatʼs useful, such as information, advice or your own experience.It also means trusting your instincts, the ability youʼre born with, rather than through training and being confident about your ability to face challenges.A resourceful person is not the one getting cross or panicking when something goes wrong.Theyʼre thinking about how to solve the problem.__2__ When we learn to solve problems for ourselves rather than immediately going to others for help, it can help to build our confidence, help us feel more independent, and feel better about making decisions.Being resourceful may not help you avoid problems, but thinking creatively about how you can deal with them will make you feel less stressed and more prepared next time.__3__ This can boost self-esteem, that is, how you feel about yourself.When youʼre facing a challenge, try to focus on the actual problem rather than how you feel about it.Think about where and when it happened and what the causes are.Next, think up as many solutions to the problem as you can.__4__ Finally, review what has and hasnʼt worked, so youʼre equipped to deal with a situation next time.And remember, if you have a tricky problem that youʼre unable to solve, then ask a trusted adult for help.__5__A.You also learn what youʼre good at.B.Here is how you can be more resourceful.C.These may be practical things like pens and paper.D.No one is expected to solve all problems by themselves.E.Resourcefulness is a skill thatʼs good for you in lots of ways.F.They can be famous mottos that always inspire us to move on.G.Weigh up whatʼs good and bad about each one and choose the best.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

小学+初中+高中+努力=大学 小学+初中+高中+努力=大学 2016高考英语二轮阅读理解入口练习(7) What would you like to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? An astronaut? What do you need to do to achieve your dream job? Perhaps you think that studying well and then going on to work hard will get you the successful career you want. We are constantly taught that our hard work will eventually pay off. But a government survey has shown that hard work is not the only thing that will help you to move up the ladder. Two thirds of people believe that who you know matters more than what you know when it comes to social activity. So are the connections that you have more important than your education? Seventy-six percent of the people in the survey believed that family background is important in influencing your chances of success. They believe that if you are privileged from birth, you are more likely to have a successful career, especially if your family is wealthy. Even if you don’t have a privileged background, the people you know can still make a difference to your career. Networking is a skill which is encouraged by many career advisers. Some companies run networking workshops to try and encourage staff to meet other people, to communicate and build relationships. It’s a valuable skill. But the survey also showed something quite interesting. Although most people believed that networks are more important than education, many people put their own career success down to talent, rather than background. 41% of the people said that their parents’ income had influenced their life, but at the same time, another 41% believed that they had achieved their own success. So which is more important, what you know or who you know? It seems that by working hard and making lots of connections, the answer may be that both are very important.
36.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined part? A.Practice makes perfect. B.Nothing is impossible. C.Hope for the best. D.No pains, no gains.
37.According to the government survey the most important factor to help people move 小学+初中+高中+努力=大学 小学+初中+高中+努力=大学 up the ladder is . A.hard work B.education C.social relationship D.social activity
38.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A.76% of the people think social relationship matters most. B.41% of the people believe parents’ income is most important. C.76% of the people think family background ranks first. D.41% of the people believe they gained their own success.
