29、果优雅地处理这些问题，自己将变得更好。1E根据空后一句话可知，空处与下一句是递进关系，E项“这会挑战你认为别人看待你的方式”，所以E项符合语境。2F根据空前的“dont immediately allow your emotions to get the better of you，but rather，take a moment to consider whether the criticism is at all accurate”可知，空处应讲给自己一个机会真正吸收这些信息并对其进行评估。故F项符合语境。3C根据该段小标题“Avoid unnecessary conflict”可知，C项

30、“但是最好避免陷入争吵”符合语境。4A根据空后的“And it may be because of a concept calledcognitive dissonance that can prevent us from changing even when thats what we need most”及本段小标题可知，A项“我们大部分人都很倔强”符合语境。5G根据空后的“Your emotions will be running high, and you may not be particularly receptive to extra information”并结合上文可知，空处

35、 a detailed plan.Besides，I will make use of time.Do you have any good ideas？Tell me I will be grateful to you.Im looking forward to from you.Yours，Li Hua第一处：begin改为began。考查动词时态。根据句中时间状语last month可知，此处描述的是发生在过去的事情，所以应用一般过去时。第二处：that改为which。考查定语从句。此处是非限制性定语从句，that不能引导非限制性定语从句，且从句中缺少主语，先行词为整个句子，所以关系词应该

36、用which。第三处：fail后加to。考查固定搭配。fail to do sth.是固定用法，表示“未能做成某事”。第四处：删除because后的of。考查介词。because of后面跟名词、代词或动名词作宾语，文中其后跟的是从句，应用because来引导，故删除of。第五处：the改为a。考查冠词。该处表示“再给自己一次机会”，a second chance表示“再一次机会”。第六处：them改为it。考查代词。该处表示“通过英语考试”，应用it代指英语考试。第七处：advices改为advice。考查名词。advice是不可数名词，故把advices改为advice。第八处：fully

37、改为full。考查形容词。该句中的名词use应用形容词修饰，所以把fully改为full。make full use of“充分利用”。第九处：or改为and。考查并列连词。此处表示“告诉我(你的建议)，我将不胜感激”。“祈使句and句子”，and表示顺承关系；“祈使句or句子”，or表示“否则”。第十处：hear改为hearing。考查动名词。look forward to短语中to是介词，后面跟名词、代词或动名词作宾语。四、短文语法填空When Dad told me I was going to take a scuba diver training course, I was real

38、ly excited.I thought Id be like those people on TV, _1_ (play) with fish.In the pool, Rob, my instructor, demanded that we do what he did.One of the drills _2_ (be) to take our masks off at the bottom of the deep end, replace them, _3_ clear them of water.I wasnt doing that because I couldnt open my

41、ayingplay和从句谓语之间没有连词，故用非谓语动词。play和从句主语I之间构成主谓关系，故用现在分词作状语。2was根据上文的demanded和本文的整体时态，此处用一般过去时。3and根据语境可知，take off, replace和clear是三个连续的动作，故填连词and。4was terrifiedsb.is/was terrified表示“某人感到害怕”，再结合下文的made excuse可知，应填was terrified。5why根据语境可知，此处表示逻辑上的因果关系，故用why引导宾语从句，在从句中作原因状语。6feetfoot是可数名词，此处指作者的“双脚”把作者带向游泳池，故用复数形式。7closed此处是with复合结构，即：with名词/代词非谓语动词，在句子中作状语。close和其逻辑主语my eyes之间构成动宾关系，故用过去分词形式。8the根据语境可知，此处表示“另一端”，故用定冠词the。9quickly应用副词quickly修饰动词。10itself此处应填代词itself作第二个fear的同位语，表示强调。
