第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

There is an old Spanish Proverb which states,\week\say,too many.Our dreams should not,and cannot wait.We have to go for them now! Here's why.

1.___17___Nobody likes to talk about death,but the reality is—everybody is going to die at one point.None of us know the day,or the hour.Therefore,today is all we have.Don't go to your grave with unfulfilled dreams.Make the decision to go after every dream,big or small right now.

2.The world is waiting on your gift...

I know this may be hard to believe, but the world is waiting on YOU!Yes, YOU!___18___Sure,other people may be able to sing.But they'll never be able to sing exactly like you.Sure other people can write,but they'll never be able to write from the same perspective in which you write.Don't deprive the world of your gift.

It's the oxygen that we need to survive.Thus,it is your responsibility to figure out exactly what your gift is,and use to better your life and the lives of those around you.

3.___19___

You can dream about writing the great American play that you want,but it's never going to happen unless you actually put pen to paper.You can dream about finding a cure for cancer,but it will never

happen unless you actually go to school to become equipped with the necessary tools to find that cure.___20___They require you to get your head out of the clouds,and actually do the work to make them happen.Get to it! A.You can't let fear win. B.Tomorrow is not promised.

C.In other words,dreams don't work unless you do. D.Possibilities you never knew existed are waiting on you E.How many times have we put off our dreams until tomorrow? F.Unless you take the first step,your dreams will never come true.

G.You were born into the world with a unique gift,which nobody on this earth can copy. 【答案】16. E 17. B 18. G 19. F 20. C

【解析】试题分析：作者在本文中呼吁我们一定要抓住今天，抓住现在，不要拖延，只有这样我们才会成功。 16. E 根据横线后一句I’d say, too many.我要说，太多了。这是对36句的回答，说明36句应该是一个疑问句，选项中只有E项How many times have we put off our dreams until tomorrow?是询问的是这一问题。说明我们经常会把今天的事情推迟到明天。故E项正确。

17. B 根据本段最后两句Don’t go to your grave with unfulfilled dreams. Make the decision to go after every dream, big or small right now.不要到坟墓里再去追求梦想，现在就决定追求梦想，无论梦想是大还是小，立刻就要开始。也就是说不要拖到明天。在根据本段第一句Nobody likes to talk about death, but the reality is – everybody is going to die at one point.没有人知道自己什么时候会死亡。可能是明天，也可能是后天。所以明天并不保证你会成功。故B正确。

18. G 根据本段标题The world is waiting on your gift这个世界都在等待你的天赋。也就是说世界上的美国人都要发挥自己的天赋和才干。因为每个人的天赋和才干都是独一无二的。选项中只有G项“You were born into the world with a unique gift, which nobody on this earth can copy.”和该段的主题一致。

19. F 根据本段第一句You can dream about writing the great American play that you want, but it’s never going to happen unless you actually put pen to paper.可知如果你不开始写作，你就不可能成为伟大的作家。也就是说要采取行动，你的梦想才会实现。

20. C 本段讲述的是我们要采取行动，梦想才会实现。前一句You can dream about finding a cure for cancer, but it will never happen unless you actually go to school to become equipped with the necessary tools to find that cure.你想找到癌症的治愈方法，但如果你不去学校学习有关的知识，这是不可能会发生的。还是

- 11 -

在强调要采取行动才能实现目标。C项“In other words, dreams don’t work unless you do.如果你不去做，梦想是不会实现的。”符合本段的中心思想。 考点：考查教育类阅读
