74、on his own feet.分析：这是一个主从复合句。troubled by.woods在句中作原因状语，he could stay with.own feet为省略了that的宾语从句。译文：但是由于担忧Prather在寒冷的树林中过夜，Gilleece告诉少年他可以和自己与自己的家人住在一起，直到他能够自立。【习语积累】1.be on the case处理事件(尤指刑事侦查)We have two agents on the case.我们有两名探员在侦察此案。2.stand on ones own(two) feet自立，独立When his parents died he had

76、扔掉钱包的水域寻找，由此推断，他带Prather去码头的目的是找到被Prather扔掉的戒指。6D考查细节理解。第四段谈到“Gilleece told the teen he could stay with him and his family until he stood on his own feet. He also gave the kid a job at his bar”，即Gilleece告诉Prather可以到自己家里住宿，直到他能够自立，并让他在自己的酒吧里工作，由此可知选D。7B考查标题判断。本文讲述一个少年捡到钱包并因此陷入困境，酒吧老板帮助该少年脱离困境开始新生活的故事

86、their mouths shut worked the entire 45 minutes on average, and when asked afterwards，said they felt they had a long way to go to achieve their goal.(Para.3) 分析：本句主句主语是those，谓语是worked，said。 who kept their mouths shut是who引导的定语从句，修饰先行词those；when ausked afterwards是过去分词短语作时间状语；they felt they had a long w

87、ay to go to achieve their goal是省略了that的宾语从句，作said的宾语。 译文：最终，那些保持沉默的人平均工作了整整45分钟，当后来被问到时，他们说他们觉得要实现目标还有很长的路要走。8A考查推理判断。根据画线词组后一句“The mind is kind of tricked into a feeling that its already done”并结合画线词组所在句可推知，social reality在此处意为“目标的完成”。9C考查细节理解。根据最后一段最后两句“Finally those who kept their mouths shut.to ac

88、hieving their goal”可知，Peter Gollwitzer想告诉我们：没有说出目标的人工作时间更长，工作更努力。10D考查细节理解。根据最后一段的内容可知，Peter Gollwitzer把所测试的对象分成两部分，一半说出自己的目标，一半没有说出目标，每个人都给了45分钟，他们可以随时停止；试验表明，没有说出目标的人平均工作了45分钟，而说出目标的人平均工作33分钟，由此可知，Peter Gollwitzer是通过进行比较测试来证明他的观点的，故选D。11C考查推理判断。根据第一段的内容，尤其是最后一句中的“because that good feeling will mak

89、e you less likely to do it”可推知，如果你把目标告诉你的朋友，你就不太可能会实现目标，故选C。D2020福州市质量抽测 A walk through the galleries of Quebecs Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (MMFA) places individuals facetoface with some 43,000 artworks ranging from Chinese ceramics to Inuit sculpture.While the visiting is an incredible cultural e
