一段“Moreover,theamateurtraditioninmusiccriticismhasbeeninheadlongretreat.”(此外,音乐批评的业余传统也在一路退却。)可知,本文主要描写报纸上的高质量的艺术评论已经不复存在,即报纸评论现象的消失。故B项“报纸上消失的范畴”可概括主题,选项中的“Horizon”在此指代“界限;范畴”,最适合作为本文标题。故选B。SectionCArethingsnotworkingoutinyourlife,despiteyourdoingallthe“right”things?Isitpossiblethatyouareholding“unforgiveness”inyourheart?Itisworththinkingabout.Whatdoyoudowhensomebodyhurtsyou?Doyouwanttohurtthatpersonback,ordoyouholditagainstthemfortherestofyourlife?Ifyouanswered“yes”tothesequestions,youarelikemostpeople.____67____Peopledon’tforgivereadily,becauseitiseasiertohatethantoforgive.Somepeoplethinktoforgiveisasignofweakness,butactuallytoforgivetakescourageandeffort.Forgivenessisagiftfromagenerousheart.Itisnotarewardforgoodbehavior.Itisnotbasedonwhetherthepersondeservesitorwhetherthepersonhasaskedforit.Besides,forgivenessisanactandalong-termprocess.____68____Itisanactbecauseitisnotjustthewordsyousay,butalsoyouractionswhichshowifyou’vetrulyforgivensomeone.____69____Ittakesalotofenergytohateandtokeepthathateinplace.Hateputsunwantedstressonyourbody.Itisawell-knownfact,provenbynumerousstudies,thatbitternesscanactuallymakeyousick.Themomentthoseaffectedpeopleforgiveandletgooftheirhate,theywillstarttogetwell.____70____Ihavepersonalexperienceofthis.Iusedtobeverycynical(愤世嫉俗的)aboutlifeanddidn’tforgiveeasily.Atthetime,Ialsostruggledineveryareaofmylife.Thingsjustdidn’tseemtoworkoutforme.Itisasifeverythingthatcouldgowrong,alwayswentwrong.Thatwasuntilsomebodytoldmetotakealookatmyattitude.AndwhenIforgavethosewhowrongedmeandchangedmyattitude,everythingelsechanged.Itdidn’thappenovernight.Ittookawhile,butIcouldseeandfeelthedifference.A.Thosewholearntoforgivedeserverespectfromothers.B.Toforgiveissomethingthatmostpeoplehavedifficultywith.C.Thedeeperyourpain,thelongeritusuallytakestocompletelyforgive.D.Forgivenessbringsfreedom,whilehateisneithersweetnorsatisfying.E.Forgivenessisnecessarybecauseitreleasesyoufromtheburdenofbitternessandhate.
F.Psychologically,forgivenessisdefinedasadecisiontoreleasehatetowardapersonwhohasharmedyou.【答案】67.B68.C69.E70.D【解析】【导语】本文是议论文。大多数人难以选择宽恕,作者结合自身经历劝诫人们要学会宽恕,宽恕能带给我们好处。【67题详解】上文“Ifyouanswered‘yes’tothesequestions,youarelikemostpeople.(如果你对这些问题的回答是肯定的,那么你和大多数人一样)”说读者和大多数人一样,引发思考:大多数人到底是什么样?B项“Toforgiveissomethingthatmostpeoplehavedifficultywith.(宽恕是大多数人难以做到的事)”揭示答案,大多数人难以宽恕别人,下文“Peopledon’tforgivereadily,becauseitiseasiertohatethantoforgive.(人们不轻易宽恕,因为恨比宽恕更容易)”进一步阐明了原因,上下文语意连贯。故选B。【68题详解】根据上文“Besides,forgivenessisanactandalong-termprocess.(此外,宽恕是一种行为,是一个长期的过程)”可知,宽恕是一个漫长的过程,C项“Thedeeperyourpain,thelongeritusuallytakestocompletelyforgive.(你的痛苦越深,通常宽恕需要的时间就越长)”中进行了具体分析,说明宽恕可能需要很长时间,上下文语意连贯。故选C。【69题详解】下文“Ittakesalotofenergytohateandtokeepthathateinplace.Hateputsunwantedstressonyourbody.Itisawell-knownfact,provenbynumerousstudies,thatbitternesscanactuallymakeyousick.(仇恨和保持仇恨是需要很多精力的。仇恨会给你的身体带来不必要的压力。一个众所周知的事实是,许多研究证明,怨恨实际上会让你患病)”描述了怨恨和仇恨会带来困扰与麻烦,E项“Forgivenessisnecessarybecauseitreleasesyoufromtheburdenofbitternessandhate.(宽恕是必要的,因为它让你从怨恨和仇恨的负担中解脱出来)”说宽恕可化解怨恨和仇恨,上下文语意连贯,且句中bitterness和hate前后照应。故选E。70题详解】根据下文“Ihavepersonalexperienceofthis.(我个人有过这样的经历)”和指代关系可知,设空句中应明确下文中this指代对象,再结合段中“AndwhenIforgavethosewhowrongedmeandchangedmyattitude,everythingelsechanged.Itdidn’thappenovernight.Ittookawhile,butIcould
seeandfeelthedifference.(当我宽恕了那些冤枉我的人,改变了我的态度,一切都变了。这不是一夜之间发生的。虽然花了一段时间,但我能看到并感觉到不同)”可推知,作者经历的事情与“宽恕”和“改变”有关,D项“Forgivenessbringsfreedom,whereashateisneithersweetnorsatisfying.(宽恕带来自由,仇恨既不甜蜜也不令人满足)”讲宽恕带来自由,带来改变,与段中作者经历一致,同时也是下文中this指代对象,上下文语意连贯。故选D。V.Translation71.他的缺乏自律给这位客座教授留下了糟糕的印象。(impression)(汉译英)【答案】Hislackofself-disciplineleftabadimpressiononthevisitingprofessor.【解析】【详解】考查短语和时态。lackof缺少,缺乏;self-discipline自律;leaveanimpressiononsb.给某人留下印象;visitingprofessor客座教授。陈述过去事情,用一般过去时。根据句意,故翻译为Hislackofself-disciplineleftabadimpressiononthevisitingprofessor.72.父母对孩子越不耐心,孩子越容易患抑郁症。(themore...,themore...)(汉译英)【答案】Thelesspatientparentsarewiththeirchildren,themorelikelytheirchildrenaretosufferfromdepression.【解析】【详解】考查固定句型。“themore...,themore...”是固定句型,表示“越……,就越……”,the后面跟形容词或副词的比较级,该句型是一个复合句,前面部分是状语从句,后面部分是主句。分析中文原句,“父母对孩子越不耐心”是条件状语从句,“父母”是主语,用parents表示,“耐心”作表语,用形容词patient表示,“对……越不耐心”用比较级结构lesspatientwith...表示,译为thelesspatientparentsarewiththeirchildren;“孩子越容易患抑郁症”是主句,“孩子”是主语,用theirchildren表示,“越容易”作表语,用形容词likely的比较级形式morelikelytodo...,“患抑郁症”用动词短语sufferfromdepression表示,用不定式作主语补足语,译为themorelikelytheirchildrenaretosufferfromdepression。综上,全句译为:Thelesspatientparentsarewiththeirchildren,themorelikelytheirchildrenaretosufferfromdepression.73.直到他坚持到底,为足球队赢得比赛的最后一分,人们才认可他为一位称职的队长。(until)(汉译英)【答案】Hewasnotrecognizedasacompetentcaptainuntilhewentallthewayandwonthelastpointofthegameforthefootballteam.【解析】
【详解】考查名词,动词,形容词,代词,介词,连词,短语和时态。表示“他”应用代词;表示“坚持到底”应用动词短语goalltheway;表示“为”应用介词for;表示“足球队”应用名词短语thefootballteam;表示“赢得”应用动词win;表示“比赛的最后一分”应用名词短语thelastpointofthegame;表示“人们认可”应用动词短语berecognized;表示“为”应用介词as;表示“称职的”应用形容词competent;表示“队长”应用名词captain;表示“直到…才”应用连词not…until。这句话描述的是过去的事情,所以谓语用一般过去时。故翻译为Hewasnotrecognizedasacompetentcaptainuntilhewentallthewayandwonthelastpointofthegameforthefootballteam.
