　　[2024·長春質檢]When you've seen a couple fighting or having a pity argument， what is the first thing that comes in your mind? Probably you think that you will never allow arguments to set in your relationship, especially when you get married, or will never think to start one, but arguments seem to come naturally.

　　You argue about the brand of coffee, or what to eat at lunch, who will do the dishes, etc. Sometimes, more than that, but regardless of your reasons for the argument (or fight), fixing a troubled relationship and having a solution is very important.

　　Our partners are our most valuable fortunes. Companions provide a listening ear for our troubles, support for our dreams, and a safety net when we fall. They give us love, even when we are unlovable. They are and must be our friends.

　　Inevitably, though, sometimes we go through troubled periods and a solution should be sought through the following steps:

　　Address the situation. Admit to your partner that something is wrong and needs to be fixed.

　　Determine the problem. Together, discuss what problems we are facing. Be honest and let your honesty be in its proper place. Remember, you are talking to your partner, another half of yourself.

　　Apologize. We accept responsibility for our actions and seek forgiveness.

　　Refuse to blame. In addition, we must avoid defending ourselves. There could be a temptation to argue over who did what; however, the goal is not proving who is right but saving the relationship.

　　Begin repairs. Ask, “What can I do to rebuild our relationship？” The key here is to do willingly whatever is requested.

　　Commit to rebuilding. Immediately start investing your time, energy, and love in restoring the relationship. In order to have a good relationship with a partner who accepts and loves us, we must be willing to pay the high price of patching up the broken relationship. Walking away might seem easier, but in the long run, we would lose a valuable treasure.

　　本文論述如何修補破裂關系。

　　4．It is essential to fix a troubled relationship in that

　　.

　　A．arguments seem to come naturally

　　B．arguments are not allowed in a good relationship

　　C．companions provide us with comfort and support

　　D．sometimes we inevitably go through troubled periods

　　答案：C　細節理解題。通過第三段可得知。第二段和第三段是相互呼應、前后銜接的。注意：in that意思是“因為”。

　　5．The solutions to fixing a troubled relationship do NOT include

　　.

　　A．asking for forgiveness of the mistakes

　　B．bravely facing the existing problems

　　C．being honest when discussing the problems

　　D．trying to speak for ourselves to protect our rights

　　答案：D　細節理解題。A、B、C分別在第七、五、六段找到答案。D項與第八段avoid defending ourselves矛盾。

　　6．The author does NOT agree that

　　.

　　A．our partners are our most valuable treasures

　　B．it's sensible to ignore the heated argument for a while

　　C．proving who is to blame has nothing to do with the solution

　　D．it takes time, energy, and love to rebuild the broken relationship

　　答案：B　理解作者觀點、態度。從文章最后一段最后一句，可得知作者不贊同回避問題，因為長期這樣下去，會失去生命中寶貴的財富。

　　7．The purpose of the text is to

　　.

　　A．tell how to sensibly deal with troubled relationships

　　B．confirm that arguments are common in daily life

　　C．encourage people to invest love in a relationship

　　D．persuade people not to blame those who make mistakes

　　答案：A　主旨大意題。文章第一至三段是引入論述主題，都是為第四至十段“如何修補關系裂痕”作鋪墊的。因此選A。其他選項過于片面，僅僅是文章提及的某個方面而已。

　　1．argument n. 爭辯；辯論

　　2．solution n. 解決問題的方法

　　3．apologize vi. 道歉

　　4．blame vt. 責備；負責

　　5．treasure n．/vt. 珍寶；珍惜

　　1．regardless of 不管；不顧

　　2．go through 經受；仔細檢查

　　原文：However, the goal is not proving who is right but saving the relationship.(not...but...)

　　譯文：然而，這一目標并非是證明誰是對的，而是挽救人們之間的關系。

　　仿寫：She is not playing computer games but eating chocolate.

　　她不是在玩電腦游戲而是在吃巧克力。

　　Ⅱ.七選五(建議用時7′)

　　根據短文內容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

　　[2024·湖北質檢一]We all desire to be respected, but it doesn't come easily just by mere wishing. Outlined below are some steps you can do to get respect.

　　Treat others with respect. The golden rule, “Do unto others what you would like others to do unto you”， always holds true. If you cannot respect other people, do not expect them to respect you.

　　1

　　Watch your attitude and change those ones that are hurting your relationship with others. If you notice people avoiding you or laughing at you behind your back, they are not showing you respect.

　　2

　　By doing so, you will find out

　　which areas you need to improve to get the respect you deserve.

　　3

　　Knowing who you are and valuing yourself as a person with a clear and fierce determination will eventually make you outstanding. People will respect individuals who believe in themselves.

　　Earn the respect. If you think you can demand respect from others by force, you are wrong.

　　4

　　Manipulating (操縱) others in order to gain respect is not only dangerous, but you are also making a fool of yourself. Humble yourself and work hard to become a respectable person. Your efforts will be rewarded by the respect people give back to you.

　　Be honest. Showing honesty in dealing with people earns their trust and eventually their respect.

　　5

　　Therefore, cultivate (培養) it the best way possible.

　　A．Be confident about yourself.

　　B．Evaluate your life and actions.

　　C．You earn your own respect by making things happen.

　　D．You harvest whatever you planted and this is a universal law.

　　E．Understand that people have their own ways of looking at things.

　　F．Your character is your best investment in getting people's respect.

　　G．Respect is one of the virtues that come naturally to those who work hard to win it.

　　本文是說明文。主要介紹了如何獲得別人的尊重。

　　1．D　本選項是對前兩句內容的一個概括性總結——“種瓜得瓜、種豆得豆”是一個普遍法則，所以選用D選項。

　　2．B　本句起到承上啟下的作用，因為上句提到有人躲避你或背后嘲笑你，你就應對你的生活和行為做出評價，找出哪些方面應該改進以獲得尊重，所以選用B選項。

　　3．A　由本段的最后一句可知本段要闡明的主旨是：對自己要有自信，所以選用A選項。

　　4．G　本段先點明主旨——要贏得尊重，接著指出了贏得尊重的錯誤做法，由此可推斷，此空內容應該是在討論如何贏得尊重，所以選用G選項。

　　5．F　本段提到的honest與性格相關，本句的意思是“(誠實的)性格是你贏得尊重的最好投資”，所以此處選用F選項。

　　Ⅲ.語法填空(建議用時8′)

　　閱讀下面材料，在空白處填入適當的內容(1個單詞)或括號內單詞的正確形式。

　　[2024·河南南陽市質檢]Do you have sleeping problems？Then these tips may help you fall asleep fast.

　　Set aside the thought

　　1

　　you have to fall asleep. The more you think

　　2

　　it, the more you can't sleep.

　　The foods you eat also play

　　3

　　important part. Avoid eating or drinking foods or things like chocolates, coffee, tea and energy drinks. If you have to, then have them in the morning and never in the afternoon,

　　4

　　(especial) before going to bed. Don't eat too much at night. A full stomach will make you more difficult

　　5

　　(fall) asleep because your body is working－time to digest the food you ate.

　　Make a

　　6

　　(fix) time when to go to bed. For example, by 9 o'clock in the evening you should already be in bed. Do this even if you're not sleepy yet. Once

　　7

　　(follow) this routine, you will gradually see that you feel

　　8

　　(sleep) when it's 9 o'clock.

　　Make your room comfortable for sleeping. You should also take note that the sleeping environment also affects your sleep. It must be in the room

　　difficult to fall asleep again after waking up.

　　本文講述的是如何解決睡眠問題。

　　1．that　考查同位語從句，從句中不缺主語和賓語，也不缺少語義。

　　2．of/about　考查固定短語。think of/about意思為“考慮、思考中”。

　　3．an　考查固定短語。play an important part意為“起重要作用”。

　　4．especially　考查詞性轉換。此處修飾介詞短語，應用副詞。

　　5．to fall　考查非謂語動詞。該處不定式作狀語，修飾形容詞。

　　6．fixed　考查非謂語動詞。空格后為名詞，因此應用非謂語動詞作定語修飾time，兩者為被動關系，表示“固定的”。

　　7．following　考查省略句。follow與you之間為主動關系，once為連詞，“連詞＋非謂語”作狀語。

　　8．sleepy　考查詞性轉換。feel作為系動詞后應跟形容詞，故填sleepy。

　　9．where　考查定語從句。從句修飾先行詞room且從句中不缺少成分，故填where。

　　10．it　考查代詞。it為形式賓語，不定式作真正的賓語。

　　Ⅳ.書面表達(建議用時20′)
