[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文。
作者以自己的事为例呼吁全体女性勇敢追求成功,为争取性别平等而不懈努力。
1.A.ambitious B.excellent
C.averageD.energetic
根据“Itwastobethebesttennisplayer”以及下文内容,尤其是“Peoplecallme...Whydon'
sbestmaleathletes?
”可知,此处指作者说自己小时候的理想与普通孩子的是不同的,故选average“普通的,一般的”。
ambitious“有野心的,有雄心的”;
excellent“优秀的”;
energetic“精力充沛的”。
2.A.insteadofB.regardlessof
C.otherthanD.morethan
结合本文主旨以及下文中的“Peoplecallmeoneofthe‘world'
sgreatestfemaleathletes’.Whydon'
”可知,作者希望男女平等,所以作者在此强调的是自己的理想是做世界上最好的网球运动员,而不是最好的女网球运动员。
insteadof“而不是”;
regardlessof“不管,不顾”;
otherthan“除了”;
morethan“多于,超出”。
3.A.HopefullyB.Fortunately
C.ObviouslyD.Generally
幸运的是(Fortunately),作者有鼓励她追寻自己的梦想的家人。
此处亦与下文中的“Buttoooften,mostwomenarenotsupported...”形成对比。
hopefully“有希望地”;
obviously“明显地”;
generally“普遍地”。
4.A.makeupB.setup
C.careforD.pushfor
根据下文中的“Myfightbeganwhen...”“fightfortheirdreams”可知,这里指作者知道了为梦想而努力是多么重要。
pushfor“为……而努力,力争”。
makeup“编造,构成”;
setup“设立,建立”;
carefor“照顾”。
5.A.riskB.leave
C.breakD.chance
作者从三岁时就开始为理想奋斗,自此一直从未间断。
break“暂停,中断”,符合语境。
6.A.defendedB.excused
C.discouragedD.dismissed
但是通常,大多数女性不被支持,或者被阻止去选择自己的道路。
discourage“阻止,阻挠”,符合语境。
defend“保卫,保护”;
excuse“同意免除”;
dismiss“去除,摒除”。
7.A.thoughtB.question
C.momentD.bonus
作者希望这种境况可以改变,在作者看来,这是有关“坚忍”的问题(question)。
thought“想法”;
moment“时刻”;
bonus“意外收获,奖金”。
8.A.disadvantagesB.concerns
C.qualificationsD.personalities
根据下文中的“myrace,mygender”“Iacceptedasfuelformysuccess”可知,此处指被别人列为作者的劣势(disadvantages)的东西,比如她的种族,她的性别,作者将它们视为追求成功的动力。
concern“担忧”;
qualification“资格”;
personality“个性”。
9.A.ignoreB.attack
C.comfortD.limit
根据下文中的“Icontrolledmyfuture.”可知,作者从不让任何事或任何人来限制自己,而是自己主宰自己的未来。
limit“限制”,符合语境。
10.A.althoughB.because
C.unlessD.if
当谈起同工同酬问题时,作者感到懊恼,因为她自己亲身体验到性别差异的存在。
分析句子结构可知,前后句之间是因果关系,且前面是果,后面是因。
故用because。
11.A
