完形填空
　　In my early childhood, my parents and teachers taught me to be persistent(执着的)in every task I devoted myself to. I was　1　that persistence is the only way towards success. But a small　2　made me change my mind.
　　One day my two-year-old son, 　3　at a dozen of“stood”color marker-pens, cheered excitedly, “Mummy, look! I did it. ”Afterwards, he collected some ballpoint pens, 　4　to do the same. Hard though he tried, the ballpoint pens just lay　5　. He turned to me for help. Noticing they had either sharp or round ends, I said　6　, “Mummy can’t help you. ”To my surprise, he wouldn’t listen and continued trying. . . I was dumbfounded by his persistence.
　　My son’s behaviour reminded me of George who was always　7　in his work and rarely talked to anyone. To him, 　8　, there was no such thing called weekends or holidays. Our boss praised　9　about him and　10　us to look up to him as a role model.
　　One day I met George. “Gonna work late again tonight? ”
“Probably I can’t leave till midnight, ”he said.
“How many hours have you put in here each week, eighty or ninety? ”
“　11　. ”
“Don’t you have time to be with your family at all? ”
　　He shook his head slowly and　12　a sigh. “It’s not what I wanted. But I have worked on it for so long. It’s much too　13　to even think about letting go. ”
　　A year later I resigned. The　14　thing I heard about him was that his wife divorced him. Since then I’ve never seen him. But occasionally his aged　15　would come to my mind.
　　Until that day, 　16　knowing why the ballpoint pens couldn’t stand up, the two-year-old son had　17　the impossibility after many failures. He put aside all the ballpoint pens and kept only those marker-pens for his“game”. 　18　, he already learned to let go of his previous　19　attempts.
　　In our daily life, many headaches can be avoided if we know how to　20　them and then decisively let them go immediately.

6. A. deliberately B. casually

14. A. latter B. later C. last D. lately
【解析】选C。前后照应题。依据后面一句“Since then I’ve never seen him. ”可知此空填last, 说明“这是我听到有关他的最终一件事”。

【解析】选D。前后照应题。依据come to my mind可知此处选image。虽然后来我再也没见到过他, 但他年迈的形象还会毁灭在我的脑海中。

20. A. clarify B. distinguish

阅读下面短文，把握其大意，然后从1~15各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
The aim of writing a letter of application is to help you to “sell” yourself. It should state 1 the job you want，and should tell what your abilities are and what you have 2 . It should be simple，human，personal and brief without 3 out any necessary fact.
In writing a letter of application，bear in mind that the things a possible employer is most 4 to want to know about are your qualifications，your achievements and your aims. The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part. If the first few sentences fail to 5 the reader’s attention，the rest of the letter may not be 6 at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or interests of the employer not to your own need or desires. For example，instead of beginning with “I saw your 7 in today’s paper.” You might say, “I have made a careful study of your advertising during the past six months” or “I have made a survey in my neighborhood to find out how many housewives 8 your product and why they like it.”
Try to 9 generalities. Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now 10 . College graduates looking for their first positions often ask “What can I 11 in a letter？Employers want experience，which，naturally，no 12 has.” The answer is that everything you have ever done is 13 . It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter. 14 a specific request for an interview of giving the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent 15 is to enclose a stamped，self­addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it easier for a possible employer to get in touch with you.
1．A. clearly B．carefully C．obviously D．easily
2．A. found B．done C．known D．heard
3．A. sending B．taking C．leaving D．picking
4．A. probable B．possible C．likely D．able
5．A. pay B．win C．show D．fix
6．A. kept B．continued C．written D．read
7．A. advertisement B．report C．article D．introduction
8．A. change B．make C．sell D．use
9．A. avoid B．remember C．protect D．gain
10．A. losing B．applying C．preparing D．fitting
11．A. inform B．supply C．mean D．provide
12．A. worker B．beginner C．owner D．manager
