Although Castro took an interest in history, geography and debating at Belen, he did not excel academically, instead devoting much of his time to playing sport.In 1945, Castro began studying law at the University of Havana, where he became involved in student activism, and the violent gangsterism culture within the university.

Castro became critical of the corruption and violence of President Ramon Graus government, delivering a public speech on the subject in November 1946 that received coverage on the front page of several newspapers.In 1947, Castro joined the Party of the Cuban People, founded by Eduardo Chibas. Chibas advocated social justice, honest government, and political freedom, while his party exposed corruption and demanded reform.

We seem _1_ (feel) that some people are naturally creative, but we dont know how they got that way. Is creativity a natural gift, or is _2_ something that can _3_ (acquire)? Perhaps if we analyze the creative process _4_ (careful), we might get some insight (洞察力) into what it is and _5_ it might work in our lives. The creative process has always been accepted as the source of all important work in the arts, but we should not think the creativity plays a part only in the arts. Every major scientific discovery began with someone _6_ (imagine) the world differently from the way others saw it. And this is _7_ creativity is all about. And despite what you may believe about the limits of your own creative imagination, we all have the potential to imagine the world in _8_ absolutely new way. In fact, you are born _9_ it. And whats more, you use it every day. Its your creative mind _10_ gets meaning from chaos of experiences and brings order to your world.1_ 2._ 3._ 4._ 5._ 6._ 7._ 8._ 9._ 10._ 篇章導(dǎo)讀:本文是一篇議論文。創(chuàng)造力是天生的才華,還是后天也可以獲得?本文就這一話題展開了討論。1to feel 考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。我們感覺似乎某些人天生具有創(chuàng)造力。seem to do sth.“似乎要做某事”。2it 考查代詞。創(chuàng)造力是天生的才華,還是后天也可以習(xí)得的?這里用it指代creativity。3be acquired 考查被動(dòng)語態(tài)。先行詞something和acquire之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系,又因?yàn)榍閼B(tài)動(dòng)詞can后要用動(dòng)詞原形,故此空填be acquired。4carefully 考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。也許如果我們仔細(xì)分析創(chuàng)造的過程,我們就會(huì)洞察到什么是創(chuàng)造力,它是如何在我們的生活中起作用的。這里用副詞修飾動(dòng)詞analyze。5how 考查特殊疑問詞。此處表述創(chuàng)造力是如何在我們生活中起作用的。由語義可知填how。6imagining 考查with的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)。每次重大的科學(xué)發(fā)現(xiàn)都以某個(gè)人以不同于其他人的方式看待這個(gè)世界開始。此處為“with賓語賓語補(bǔ)足語”結(jié)構(gòu),賓語和賓補(bǔ)之間是邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系,故此空填imagining。7what 考查名詞性從句的連接詞。創(chuàng)造力就是用一種新的方式想象世界。空格處引導(dǎo)表語從句并在從句中作介詞about的賓語,故填連接代詞what。8an 考查冠詞。我們都有這種潛能,用一種全新的方式想象這個(gè)世界。absolutely的發(fā)音以元音音素開頭,故用不定冠詞an,表泛指。9with 考查介詞。事實(shí)上,你天生具有創(chuàng)造力。be born with “生而具有”。10that 考查強(qiáng)調(diào)句。正是創(chuàng)造性思維使得你從混亂的經(jīng)歷中找到意義,給你的世界帶來秩序。由強(qiáng)調(diào)句基本結(jié)構(gòu)“It is/was被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分that/who(當(dāng)強(qiáng)調(diào)主語且主語指人)其他部分”可確定答案。*完形填空。I

Dway【解題導(dǎo)語】本文是一篇記敘文。作者通過講述駕車途中的所見所感,并聯(lián)想到自己家中曾經(jīng)的火災(zāi)事件對他自身觀念的影響,由此闡述了自己的感受:世上最重要的東西不是物質(zhì)占有量,而在于精神世界的豐富,只有這樣人才能感到快樂。1B根據(jù)“the golden sunshine _1_ off the leaves”可知,此處意為“樹葉反射出金色的陽光”。reflect“反射”符合語境。appreciate“感激,欣賞”;admire“欽佩,贊賞”;release“釋放,發(fā)行”。2C根據(jù)空前一句中的“smiled”和空后的“heavenly”及下文中的“calm”可知,作者當(dāng)時(shí)的心情是平靜愉快的,故peaceful符合語境。refreshing“使人精力充沛的”;delightful“討人喜歡的,令人愉快的”;peaceful“平靜的,寧靜的”;dynamic“動(dòng)力的,有活力的”。3A根據(jù)空前的“My calm was broken”可知,空處所在句與上文構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,故though“可是,不過”符合語境。too“太,也”;anyway“不管怎樣,無論如何”;instead“相反”。4A根據(jù)空前一句中的“truck was ing my way several feet over the center line”可知,作者盡量把車子往路邊開來躲開卡車。miss“避開,躲開(不好或討厭的事)”;reject“排斥,丟掉”;ignore“忽視,不理睬”;desert“遺棄,丟棄”。5B根據(jù)上文可知,一輛卡車越過了中心線幾英尺向作者的方向駛來,結(jié)合語境可知,這輛大卡車后還跟著另外兩輛同樣大的(large)卡車,故選B。6D根據(jù)語境可知,作者不知道三輛卡車上的東西是否屬于(belonged to)同一個(gè)人。belong to“屬于”;turn to“轉(zhuǎn)向,求助于”;refer to“參考,提到”;react to“對作出反應(yīng)”。7D根據(jù)語境可知,作者放慢車速來平靜心情調(diào)整心率。故follow“跟隨,追趕”符合語境。beat“打敗,拍打”;pulse“跳動(dòng),搏動(dòng)”;accelerate“加速,增加”。8A該句中的It was then that是強(qiáng)調(diào)句型,意思是“就在那時(shí)”。作者在平靜心情時(shí)注意到路旁的一個(gè)自助存儲(chǔ)公司。notice“注意到”;establish“建立,創(chuàng)辦”。9C根據(jù)語境可知,這些設(shè)備是為那些無法把所有物(possessions)存儲(chǔ)到自己的房子里的人而建的。possession“所有物,財(cái)產(chǎn)”符合語境。furniture“家具,設(shè)備”;material“材料”。10B根據(jù)空后一句中的“a couple just out of their teens”可知,此處young“年輕的”符合語境。middleaged“中年的”。11A根據(jù)該句中的“could already have too much stuff(可能已經(jīng)擁有太多的東西)”可知,作者對此感到奇怪,故curious“稀奇古怪的”符合語境。apparent“顯然的,表面上的”;certain“必然的,有把握的”;obvious“明顯的,顯然的”。12D根據(jù)語境可知,夜半時(shí)分一場大火燒毀了作者家中的一切,因此作者不再有擁有(很多)東西的興趣(taste)。taste“愛好,興趣”符合語境。hope“希望”; talent“才能,天資”;faith“信仰,信念”。13C根據(jù)空前的“had awakened”和空后的“escape”可知,作者全家及時(shí)(in time)醒來逃了出去。in return“作為回報(bào)”;in turn“反過來,輪流”;in vain“徒勞”。14B根據(jù)空后的“What was important was”和空前的“none of it”可知,空處所填詞與important意思相同,故significant“重要的,有意義的”符合語境。affordable“買得起的”;beneficial“有益的”;practical“實(shí)用的”。15C根據(jù)生活常識可知,父親打盹應(yīng)該是在一天的艱辛工作之后(after)。16D根據(jù)空前的“What was important was the stuff of”及空后的“not the stuff of this world”可知,空處所填詞與“this world”形成對比,再結(jié)合上文內(nèi)容可知,作者認(rèn)為精神世界的豐富更為重要。soul“(人類整體的)精神狀況”符合語境。mind“頭腦,智力”。17A根據(jù)上文中的“not the stuff of this world”可知,作者從此努力限制自己購買(purchase)東西的數(shù)量。下文中的“buy”亦是提示,故選A。donate“捐贈(zèng)”;waste“浪費(fèi)”;need“需要”。18B根據(jù)語境可知,此處表示作者不想讓太多的物品充斥自己的生活。故crowd up符合語境。put up“張貼,搭建”;bring up“撫養(yǎng),養(yǎng)育,提出”;set up“建立”。19C根據(jù)空后的“my family and others”可以推斷此處意為“愛我的家人和他人”,故選C。abuse“濫用”;affect“影響”。20B根據(jù)語境可知,此處表示只有這樣做作者才能開心。make sb.s day為固定用法,意為“使某人非常高興”。*短文改錯(cuò)。Dear Jack,Im sorry to hear that you failed in the last final math exam, but which worries me most is that you are in low spirit when facing failure.As senior three students, we all had taken examinations of different types and experienced failure as well as success. It is no doubt that we should take positive attitudes towards our setbacks. We should spare no effort to analyzing the cause of failure, which can help us escape repeating the similar mistakes. Only when we figure out why we fail can we make a progress in our study. As for your anxiety, I think doing some sports can do good for you. It can give you some time to be refreshing in not only the body but also the mind so that we can go on with your learning energetically and efficiently.I hope all of the above can help you a lot. Lets work hardly together and turn our dream into reality.Yours,Li Hua答案:Dear Jack,Im sorry to hear that you failed in the last final math exam, but worries me most is that you are in low when facing failure.As senior three students, we all taken examinations of different types and experienced failure as well as success. is no doubt that we should take positive attitudes towards our setbacks.

Lets work together and turn our dream into reality.Yours,Li Hua難項(xiàng)分析:第一處:whichwhat考查主語從句的連接詞。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,but連接兩個(gè)并列句,其后不是定語從句,故不能用which引導(dǎo);連接詞引導(dǎo)主語從句,表示“所的事”,故用what。第二處:spiritspirits考查名詞的數(shù)。in low spirits為固定詞組,意為“情緒低落”。第四處:ItThere考查固定句式。There is no doubt that . “毫無疑問,”,是固定句型。*
