22、大，戒不掉，那是因为屡戒屡败，失去了信心。我们大多数人想自我完善却遭到失败，这是因为我们的规划过于宏大，而又根本没有时间去实施。我们还犯有一个根本性的错误，即把我们的决心向大家宣布。这样一旦滑回到那些环的老习惯上去，我们在别人眼里会显得更加难堪。我深知这些问题，于是，今年我对自己的计划要严加保密，只给自己定下两项适中的任务：每天早上锻炼身体，每天晚上多看点书。新年除夕举办的一次通宵晚会，使我理直气壮地在新年头一天免去了这两项任务。不过，新年第二天，我全力以赴地照着去做了。早锻炼一共只有11分钟，我打算在别人起床之前进行。这就要求我比平日早11分钟把自己从床上拽起来，这种自我约束是很艰苦的。不过

23、开头两天我还是成功地蹑手蹑脚地来到楼下起居室，被谁也没发现。我在地毯上跳过来蹦过去，扭曲身子，摆出各种姿势，弄得浑身不舒服，然后坐到桌边吃早饭，一副筋疲力尽的样子。正是这副模样泄露了我的秘密。第二天早晨全家人结队来到起居室看我表演。这真叫人不好意思，但我心平气和地顶住了全家人的嘲笑和奚落。不久，大家对我习以为常了，而这时我的热情却减退了。我花在锻炼上的时间逐渐减少，慢慢地从11分钟减到了零。到了1月10日，我恢复了原来的作息时间。我辩解说，早晨少耗费精力锻炼，晚上下班回家看书时头脑更清醒些。有几天晚上，我极力摆脱了电视的诱惑，坐在自己房间里，两眼盯在书上。可是，有一天夜里，我感到又冷又孤单，便

24、来到楼下坐在电视机前假装看书。这下我可完了，因为不一会儿，我就恢复了以前的坏习惯，在屏幕前打起瞌睡来。但我还没有放弃多看些书的决心。事实上，我刚买来一本叫一分钟读一千字的诀窍的书。也许这本书能解决我的问题，但我一直还没时间去看这本书！四：语法填空练习Jingdezhen porcelain(瓷器) is Chinese porcelain produced in or near Jingdezhen in southern China.Jingdezhen has produced porcelain 1 (century)ago.And the town 2 was named Jingde

25、zhen by Emperor Zhenzong of the Northern Song Dynasty became a major kiln(窑)site around 1004.During the period,the 3(produce)of porcelain in this area first became 4(know).By the 14th century it had become the largest centre of producing Chinese porcelain,which remained in the following times.In the

28、igh quality porcelain object is the blue and white porcelain from the 1330s.1.centuries考查名词。根据句意,景德镇从数个世纪以前就开始生产瓷器了,可以得知此处应该填复数centuries。 2.which/that考查定语从句。分析句子结构可以得知句子主干是“the town became a major kiln site around 1004”。the town指物,作先行词在定语从句中作主语,后接which/that引导的限制性定语从句,故填which或that。3.production考查词性转换。

29、句意:在此期间,这个地区的瓷器产品变得知名起来。此处瓷器是一种手工艺品,是一种产品。由the限定用名词,故将produce改成它的名词形式production。4.known考查非谓语动词。此处是变得被知道,变得知名起来的意思,故使用know的过去分词形式作became的表语。故填known 。5.were controlled考查被动语态。句意:被皇帝控制的官窑生产大量的优质瓷器给皇帝当礼物送给国外。此处给的单词control是“控制”的意思,而官窑不可能自己控制自己,只能由另外的人比如此处的皇帝控制。主语official kilns为复数,故填were controlled。6.close

30、ly考查副词。句意:结果,这个小镇与世界紧密相连。close此处的意思是“紧密的,靠近的”,修饰动词时要用副词作状语。故填closely。 7.a考查不定冠词。根据上下文,这段讲述的是景德镇的地理位置优越性。它也有一条河流从北边流向南边。一条河流用不定冠词修饰,river开头是辅音音素,故填a。 8.benefiting考查非谓语动词。句意:因此有利于运输易碎的物品。主语和动词benefit是主动关系,用动词-ing形式作结果状语,故填benefiting。 9.valuable考查形容词。句意:景德镇生产各种各样珍贵的瓷器产品。此处用形容词作定语修饰名词porcelain。故填 valuable。 10.as考查介词。句意:结果,景德镇作为“瓷器之都”而出名。be famous as“作为出名”,as表示“作为”。故填as。
