全国通用版2019版高考英语大一轮复习单元检测卷19Unit4Bodylangu(2)

Failure is how we learn. I have been told of an African phrase __6__ a good cook as “she who has broken many pots”. If you've spent enough time in the __7__ to have broken a lot of pots, probably you know a fair amount about __8__.I once had a late dinner with a group of chefs, and they spent time __9__ knife wounds and burn scars. They knew how much credibility(信誉) their __10__ gave them.

I earn my living by writing a daily newspaper column. Each week I am __11__ that

one column is going to be the worst column of the week. I don't set out to write it; I try my best every day. __12__,_every week, one column is inferior(较差的) to the others, sometimes extremely so.

I have learned to __13__ that column. A successful column usually means that I am treading(踩踏) on __14__ ground, going with the tricks that work, or dressing up popular ideas in fancy words. Often in my inferior columns, I am trying to __15__ something I've never done before, something I'm not even sure can be done.

My granddaughter is a perfectionist. She will feel her failures, and I will want to __16__ her. But I will also, I hope, __17__ her of what she learned, and how she can do whatever it is __18__ next time. I probably won't tell her that failure is a good thing, because that's not a(n) __19__ she can learn when she's five. I hope I can tell her, though, that it's not the end of the world. Indeed, with luck, it is the __20__.

语篇导读

本文为夹叙夹议文。失败未必是件坏事，它会让我们成长，学到更多东西。

1．

A．usual B．conventional

C．expected D．contradictory

解析B孙女上幼儿园，从传统上来讲，祖父(母)当然希望她能成功。usual通常的；conventional传统的；expected预计的，期望的；contradictory相反的，对立的，故选B 项。

2．A.failure B．success

C．sacrifice D．victory

解析A根据I was lying及第一段最后一句可知，此处作者希望孙女失败，故选A 项。

3．A.convincing B．demanding

C．boring D．worthwhile

解析C成功是平淡的，联系下句“成功是证明了你能做你已经知道你能做的事情”和上句“我相信失败的力量”，证明作者认为一开始就获得成功是件无趣的事情，故选C项。

4．A.seldom B．often

C．always D．never

解析B首次尝试就获得成功，经常可能是带有问题的胜利，因为你不经历失败，不会真正明白如何去成功，此处如果使用always，显得太绝对，不符合文意，故选B项。

5．A.on purpose B．at length

C．in turn D．by contrast

解析D此处要表达一种句意的转折，by contrast相当于however; on purpose故意；at length最后；in turn依次，轮流，故选D项。

6．A.defining B．classifying

C．describing D．viewing

解析C一句非洲谚语将好厨子描写(describe)成“一个打破了很多锅的人”，因为只有遭遇了很多失败的人才有可能真正成功，这才符合文意。define限定，限制；classify 分类；view评价，都不合适，故选C项。

7．A.canteen B．kitchen

C．dormitory D．corridor

解析B厨师当然是在厨房工作，故选B项。

8．A.learning B．cooking

C．gardening D．training

解析B厨师了解的当然是烹饪，故选B项。

9．peting B．counting

C．displaying D．comparing

解析D结合第9空和第10空，可知厨师们是在一起比较刀伤和烫伤，在展示伤痕的同时，可能还在讲述关于伤痕的故事，所以display(展示)和count(计数)不合适，compete (竞争) 用法为compete for/against/with, 均不合适，故选D项。

10．A.endeavors B．failures

C．wounds D．scars

解析B从全文来看，是失败带给了厨师们成功(好手艺)，故选B项。

11．A.aware B．grateful

C．skeptical D．confident

解析A每周总有一份报刊专栏是本周最糟糕的专栏，这是自然的现象，所以是“我”意识到这一点，而不是怀疑这一点，故选A项。

12．A.Therefore B．Moreover

C．Still D．Otherwise

解析C句意：尽管如此，每周还是会有一份专栏比其他的专栏要差一些。still作副词，表示“不过，但是”，故选C项。

13．A.update B．review

C．cherish D．adapt

解析C作者珍惜那个专栏实际上是珍惜失败的机会，因为多次的失败会转换成成功，这和全文的大意是一致的。cherish珍惜，珍视，故选C项。

14．A.similar B．tentative

C．accessible D．familiar

解析D第14空应该和第15空结合起来看，“我经常试图在我写得较差的专栏里尝试我以前从未做过的事情，一些我甚至不能确信我能做到的事。”与此相反，“我在成功的专栏里写我熟悉的东西”，即“循规蹈矩，使用有效的技巧，用华丽的词汇修饰受欢迎的想法”，故选D项。

15．A.take in B．get through

C．comment on D．figure out

解析B get through此处意为“设法完成，处理”，故选B项。

16．A.amuse B．comfort

C．reward D．tease

解析B孙女遭受失败的时候，祖父(母)首先一定是安慰她，amuse(逗乐)，reward(回报), tease(取笑，捉弄) 都不合适，故选B项。

17．A.remind B．suspect

C．inform D．cheat

解析A祖父(母)会提醒孙女她所学到的东西，并且告诉她如何能在下一次做得更好，这样理解才符合文章大意，失败之后才更接近成功。inform(通知，告知)不符合上下文，故选A项。

18．A.worse B．acuter

C．better D．luckier

解析C参见上题解析。

19．A.trick B．experience

C．truth D．lesson

解析D祖父(母)不会告诉孙女失败是件好事，因为对于一个5岁的孩子来说，这不是她所能记住的教训，故选D项。

20．A.beginning B．destination

C．ending D．process

解析A失败不是世界末日，而是开端，故选A项。

Ⅲ.语法填空

(2018·四川彭州中学9月月考)The Mid­Autumn Festival in China has nothing, or at least very little, to do 1．with autumn. It's about time off work, and the gift that few seem to eat but people keep giving to one another: mooncakes.

I2．learned/learnt(learn) about mooncakes when I moved to China's capital city, Beijing. When the Mid­Autumn Festival came around, the city was3．lively (live)

especially with shopping for mooncakes. Every grocery store seemed to have lines of people4．carrying(carry) that single item(商品) to the counter.
