When 45-year-old Randy Pausch was diagnosed with pancreatic (胰腺)cancer, he chose to focus on
living rather than dying. As a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon University, Pausch was asked
to deliver a “last lecture”. This well-known campus tradition allowed professors to share worldly wisdom
with students as if they were dying and had one last lecture to give.
The only difference in Pausch’s case is that Pausch really was dying, but it only motivated him more.
He delivered his last lecture, “Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams” on Sept. 18, 2007.
Pausch began by sharing several of his boyhood dreams, some of which he had achieved and the
others he hadn’t. He described the importance of having dreams and how anyone can still learn a lot by
reaching for those dreams, even if they don’t always succeed. He shared the values learned through
experience, which he hoped to pass on to others hard work, honesty, laughter and gratitude.
Pausch’s last lecture received a great deal of praise and attention. It became a crazy YouTube hit, and
in October 2007, he presented an abridged (删节的)version on “The Oprah Winfrey Show”. He turned the
lecture into a book by the same name, which quickly became a best-seller. Readers were deeply moved by
the book’s representation of Pausch’s lifelong philosophy and the way it revealed the biggest source of his
motivation—his three young children.
Pausch passed away on July 25, 2008, but his voice lives on in the recorded lecture and his book. He
continues to motivate us all by encouraging us to never give up our childhood dreams—a source of
inspiration that can never run dry.
4. Why was Pausch asked to give his “last lecture”?
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂A. To teach the students.
B. To make him have a better he.
C. To cure his cancer.
D. To achieve his dream.
5. What was Pausch’s lecture mainly about?
A. His private life in boyhood.
B. Having dreams and good values.
C. The reason for his success.
D. The experience learned from others.
6. Which of the following motivated Pausch most?
A. His dreams. B. His children.
C. His work. D. His students.
7. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Keep on Dreaming B. The Meaning of Life
C. Motivation from Life D. Give the Last Lecture
答案:ABBA
【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文, 讲述了身患胰腺癌的Pausch教授做最后的演讲激励我们不要放弃
自己的梦想。
4.【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Pausch was asked to deliver a “last lecture”. This
well-known campus tradition allowed professors to share worldly wisdom with students as if they were
dying and had one last lecture to give. ”可知, Pausch教授被要求做一次最后的演讲是为了与学生们分
享世俗的智慧, 也就是为了教育学生。
5. 【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据第三段中的“He described the importance of having dreams and
how anyone can still learn a lot by reaching for those dreams, even if they don’t always succeed. He shared
the values learned through experience, which he hoped to pass on to others hard work, honesty, laughter
and gratitude. ”可知, Pausch在演讲中讲述了拥有梦想的重要性以及通过追求梦想学到的努力、诚实、
乐观和感恩等, 也就是说他的演讲主要是关于拥有梦想和良好的价值观。
6. 【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据第四段中的“it revealed the biggest source of his motivation—his
three young children. ”可知, Pausch的三个孩子给他的动力最大。
7.【解析】选A。主旨大意题。根据文章内容, 特别是最后一段中的“He continues to motivate us all

II.七选五
Imagine a child standing on a diving board four feet high and asking himself the question:“Should I
jump?” This is what motivation or the lack of it can do. Motivation and goal setting are the two sides of the
same coin. 1 Like the child on the diving board, you will stay undecided.
2 More than that,how should you stay motivated to achieve the goal? First,you need to evaluate
yourself,your values,your strengths,your weaknesses,your achievements,your desires,etc.Only then should
you set your goals.
You also need to judge the quality and depth of your motivation. This is quite important, because it is
directly related to your commitment. There are times when your heart is not in your work. 3 So, slow
down and think what you really want to do at that moment. Clarity(清晰) of thoughts can help you move
forwards.
Another way of setting realistic goals is to analyse your short and long term objectives, keeping in
mind your beliefs, values and strengths. Remember that goals are flexible. 4 They also need to be
measurable. You must keep these points in mind while setting your goals.
Your personal circumstances are equally important. For example, you may want to be a pilot but can’t
become one because your eyesight is not good enough. 5 You should reassess your goals, and
motivate yourself to set a fresh goal.
You will surely need to overcome some difficulties, some planned, but most unplanned. You cannot
overcome them without ample motivation.Make sure that you plan for these difficulties at the time of
setting your goals.
A. This can affect your work.
B. So how should you motivate yourself?
C. However, this should not discourage you.
D. So why should we try to set specific goals?
E. They can change according to circumstances.
F. Motivation is what you need most to do a good job.
G. Without motivation, you can neither set a goal nor reach it.
答案:GBAEC
1. G: 解析:前面的句子说“动机和目标的设定是同一个硬币的两面。即同一个问题的两个方面”,后
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂一句话说的是一个前面的实例:跳水板上的孩子由于缺少动机而不能决定跳还是不跳。中间的句子
会提到没有动机将出现的结果。故选G项。
2. B:根据“More than that”以及后面的问句“你应该如何保持动力来实现目标?”可推知前面应该是一
个关于如何让你有动力的问题。故选B项。
3.A :前面提到“有时你的心思不在你的工作上”,结合So后提出的解决方法可推知,中间应该提到前
面的问题带来的影响。故选A项。
4. E:根据前面的句意“记住:目标是灵活的。”可知它们是可以变化的。故选E项。
5. C:前面提到“由于视力不够好,原来你想当飞行员的目标实现不了”这样的令人沮丧的情况,后面
又提到“应该重新评估你的目标”,可推知中间一句应该提到前面的情况不应该让你气馁。故选C
项。

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文,介绍了一位90岁的英国女性仍然坚持每周工作40个小时而获
得“年度女性奖”的事迹。语篇以积极工作为切入点,宣扬劳动精神,引导考生培养劳动意识。
1.答案与解析:being 考查非谓语动词。介词for后跟动词时,要用其动名词形式。
2.答案与解析:which 考查非限制性定语从句的引导词。分析句子结构可知,逗号后是非限
制性定语从句,the pet shop是先行词,定语从句中缺少opened的宾语,故用which引导非限制性定
语从句。
3.答案与解析:finally 考查副词。副词修饰动词acknowledge。
4.答案与解析:declared 考查时态。分析句子结构可知,主句中缺少谓语动词;结合后面的
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂had可知,此处应使用一般过去时。
5.答案与解析:to retire 考查非谓语动词。此处用不定式短语作plans的后置定语,表示“她
没有退休的计划”。
6.答案与解析:have made 考查时态。根据空格后的时间状语over the years可知,句子要用
现在完成时。
7.答案与解析:but 考查连词。not…but…“不是……而是……”。句意:我工作不是因为我
必须工作,而是因为我想工作。
8.答案与解析:saying 考查非谓语动词。say与前面的a call之间是主动关系,故填saying,
现在分词短语saying...作后置定语,修饰a call。
9.答案与解析:a 考查冠词。joke“笑话,玩笑”,是可数名词。空格后用了单数joke,故其
前用a。
10.答案与解析:wonderful 考查词性转换(名词变形容词)。系动词is后面跟形容词作表语。
wonder对应的形容词是wonderful。

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
To celebrate his girlfriend's birthday, Luke Fortune drove from a small town in Central Oregon to
Portland, where he parked his car in a paid garage overnight. The next morning, he discovered that the car's
window had been broken, along with his dreams for the future: His backpack and computer were gone.
“Everything important to me was on that computer,” said Fortune, 21, who is studying to become
a paramedic(护理人员) . “My classwork, every paper I'd written, and all the programs I needed for my
paramedic tests. Every letter I was working on for job applications. I felt sick. ”
Two days after the theft, another young man was standing outside his apartment, also in Portland.
Masoud Almazrouei, 29, was an exchange student from the United Arab Emirates. A man came up to him,
saying he had a computer for sale. Only $200.Almazrouei, who had been in the United States for only a
year, admits now that he was naive(天真) . But he needed a computer, so he bought it, took it home, and
turned it on. Within seconds, he saw files and photographs.
“I wondered who would sell a computer with all of this on it,” he said. “I realized it could be
stolen.” Almazrouei found what appeared to be the owner's cell phone number and called it.
“This guy with a thick accent told me he had my computer,” Fortune said. “He told me the story
and said it was his fault. I thought it was a trick. I told him if he really had the computer, he should take it
to the police.”
Soon after, a police officer called Fortune to say that a man had dropped the computer off and had said
he was sorry. He passed along the man's number.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

【参考答案】
One possible version:
Fortune called and thanked Almazrouei and insisted on paying him a reward of $200. Almazrouei
refused. He said it was his mistake to buy the computer from someone he didn't know and he was the one to
shoulder the responsibility. More important, he said, it was his honour to return the property to the right
owner. “I saw a photo of this man in his paramedic uniform, ” Almazrouei said. “He helps people. He is a
good man. I don't want my money back. ”
A story about the two young men's encounter made it to the local papers. Overnight, Almazrouei
became a famous name and received many praises for his honesty and kindness. One day he got a call from
the president of Portland State University, where Almazrouei is studying economics. The president gave
Almazrouei a new MacBook Pro. “We thought since you gave back the laptop, we should give you a laptop
so that you'll have one, ” He told him. “We're very proud of you. It was a great story, because you did the
right thing. ”
