2、 to be fair, or that it was even meant to be fair?; Her question was agood one. It reminded me of something I was taught as a youngster: life isn’t fair. It’s a disappointment, but it’s absolutely true. One of the mistakes many of us make is that we feel sorry for ourselves, or for

3、 others, thinking that life should be fair, or that someday it will be. It’s not and it won’t be. One of the nice things about surrendering to the fact that life isn’t fair is that it keeps us from feeling sorry for ourselves by encouraging us to do the very best we can with what w

4、e have. We know it’s not ;life’s job;to make everything perfect: it’s our own challenge. Surrendering to this fact also keeps us from feeling sorry for others because we are reminded that everyone is dealt a different hand; everyone has unique strengths and problems in the process

5、of growing up, facing the reality and making decisions; and everyone has those times that they feel unfairly treated. The fact that life isn’t fair doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do everything in our power to improve our own lives or the world as a whole. To the contrary, it suggests th

6、at we should. When we don’t recognize or admit that life isn’t fair, we tend to feel pity for others and for ourselves. Pity, of course, is a self-defeating emotion that does nothing for anyone, except to make everyone feel worse than they already do. When we do recognize that life isn&r

7、squo;t fair, however, we feel compassion for others and for ourselves. And compassion is a heartfelt emotion that delivers loving-kindness to everyone it touches. The next time you find yourself thinking about the injustices of the world, try reminding yourself of this very basic fact. Youmay be sur

8、prised that it can make you out of self-pity and into helpful action. 练习题： Choose correct answers to the question: 1.The author thought of his friend's question as a good one, because _. A. he also wanted to know who held such an opinion B. it made him recall something during his childhood C. li

9、ke his friend, he also thought life was unfair D. he learned something from the question as a youngster 2.Surrendering to the fact that life isn't fair will _. A. keep us from making everything perfect B. keep us from doing everything in our power C. make us face challenges in the life bravely D

10、. make us know it's our duty to perfect things 3.The second paragraph of the passage mainly discusses _. A. it's nice to accept the injustice of life B. it's nice to surrender to the life C. we should not surrender to the life D. we should not feel sorry for ourselves 4.In the last parag

11、raph, ;this very basic fact; refers to the fact that _. A. you should not pity for others B. life isn't and won't be fair C. sympathy is a heartfelt emotion D. pity is a self-defeating emotion 5.From the passage, we can learn that the author's attitude to life is _. A. positive B. negati

12、ve C. Self-pity D. indifferent 1.C 推理推断题。本题考查隐含的因果关系。第1段破折号后面的内容为隐含的缘由，由此可见C为本题正确选项A没有原文依据，选项B与结论并无合理的因果关系，选项D对原文有曲解，原文是说这个问题使作者想起了年轻时候的往事，而并不是选项D中说的leam from the question。 2.D 事实细微环节题。本题考查复合句的理解。第2段首句中 do the very best we can 与第2句We know…it’s our challenge表明选项D为本题正确答案。本题最具干扰性的是选项C，其中的c

13、hallenge在第2句明确提到，但是此处的challenge不是指挑战生活，而是指本句第一个分句中提到的;让全部事情完备;。 3.A 主旨大意题。本段第1句是主题句,理解这个同位语从句是关键,只有选项A表达了这一句的意思。要留意其中surrender的宾语是the fact that life isn’t fair,而不是life,这样就可以否定最具干扰性的B选项了。 4.B 词义推断题。本题考查this所指的理解。最终一段倒数第2句中,this very basic fact指的是本句的从句中的the injustices of the world,另外，短语the fact

14、that life isn’t fair在文中反复出现，是本文的主题，因此结合上下文可以推出答案。其余三项虽然在文中均有提及,但只是个别细微环节,并非作者反复强调的中心话题。 5.A 观点看法题。作者指责了自怜的心情,提出对他人要有怜悯心,强调承认生活不公允并不是向生活妥协,而是将我们从自我怜悯中摆脱出来，实行一些有主动意义的行动，由此可见，作者对生活的看法是主动的，即选项A。 英语四级阅读真题练习：美国制服风 Americans are pound of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few

15、things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?

19、tirement. When people look alike, theytend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least. Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems.

24、nd Disadvantages of Uniforms 1.B 事实细微环节题。依据文章首句转折词yet后面的信息;尽管美国人很为他们的多样性和特性骄傲，但是没有什么比制服更让他们宠爱与敬重的了;结合核心词uniform及同义表达(hold…in high regard即respect),故选B。 2.A 推理推断题。依据第2段第2句;人们习惯性地期望穿制服的人有较高的专业素养;，故选A。选项D错在用superior来比较人了，文中用的是superior quality。 3.D 主旨大意题。依据第 2 段首句;they look more professional than

25、civilian clothes;及尾句的反问;What easier way is there…to lose professional identity than to step out of uniform? ;选含有高频词汇 professional的D。 4.C 推理推断题。依据第4段首句中的;loss of individuality;进行同义替换,选C。 5.D 主旨大意题。依据第2至4段首句的对比,对于文章最好的概括为选项D;制服的优缺点;。 英语四级阅读真题练习：父亲形象 Congratulations, Mr. Jones, it's a girl.&

26、quot; Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning and bring forth a different response from every man who hears these words. Some feel pride when they receive the news, while others worry, wondering whether they will be good fathers. Although there are some men who like children and may have had

27、 considerable experiencewith them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them. Many fathers and mothers have been planning and looking forward to children for some time. For other couples, pregnancy wasan accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly o

28、r unwillingly. Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child, it is obvious that the shift from the role of husband to that of father is a difficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this reconciliation (协调) process. Although numerous books have been written

29、 about American mothers, only recently has literature focused on the role of fathers. It is argued by some writers that the change to the father's role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the change the wife must take to the mother's role. The mother's role seems to require a

30、complete transformation in daily routine and highly innovative(创新的) adaptation. On the other hand, the father's role is less demanding and immediate. However, even though we mentioned the fact that growing numbers of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the

31、breadwinner in the household. 练习题： Choose correct answers to the question: 1.What can we know about fatherhood from the passage?

32、sibility that men accept unwillingly 2.What does the passage say about the shift from the role of husband to that of father? A. Numerous books have been written about it. B. Not enough attention has been paid to it. C. The shift is harder for men than for women. D. The shift is a difficult but incom

33、plete one. 3.What can we know about mothers from the passage?

35、rs. 5.The author's purpose in writing this passage is to A. explain why there are few books on the role of fathers. B. praise mothers for their great contributions to the home. C. criticize fathers for not taking enough responsibility in bringing up the children. D. complain about the lack of so

36、cial programs to help fathers in their role shift. 1.B 事实细微环节题。由第2段第2句中的pride和worry可以推断选项B是对该句的近义替换。选项A原文未提到。选项C曲解了原文第2段第1句的意思，该句中的;Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning;表示对于每个男人来说当上父亲具有不同的意义，而不是就琼斯先生而言。第2段最终一句表明只有部分人不情愿接受责任，因此在D选项men前面加上some才正确。 2.B 推理推断题。依据第3段最终两句可以推断选项B正确。选项A与第3段最终一句陈述的

37、相反。最终一段第1句虽有提及向父亲角色的转变很困难,但并未像选项C那样对比。选项D错在incomplete一词,文中并未提及与该词相关的内容。 3.A 推理推断题。本题可用解除法。选项B曲解了最终一段第2、3句对母亲角色的描述。选项C与原文最终一句不符。选项D原文未提及。只有选项A概括了全文关于母亲的论述，而且第2段最终一句也示意母亲受到的关注更多。 4.C 推理推断题。最终一句提到许多人仍旧认为父亲应当负担家计,但从本句的用词如even though和still可以看出作者对这种看法并不认同，由此可以推断只有选项C作者可能不赞成。 5.D 主旨大意题。原文第1、2段讲到父亲们对将为人父的不同

38、反应;第3段指出很少有人尝试帮助父亲完成角色的转换;最终一段是一些作家对此做出的不太符合事实的说明，因此，只有选项D能概括文章的写作目的。选项A只是文中第2段中的某个细微环节;选项B的重点是mother,与本文的论题不符;作者并无指责父亲之意，因此选项C不正确。 猜你喜爱： 1.英语四级长篇阅读习题及答案解析 2.高校英语四级阅读真题附答案 3.英语四级阅读题训练 4.英语四级考试阅读试题答案解析 5.高校英语四级细致阅读训练 带答案 6.英语四级考试阅读训练题 本文来源：网络收集与整理，如有侵权，请联系作者删除，谢谢！第17页 共17页第 17 页 共 17 页第 17 页 共 17 页第 17 页 共 17 页第 17 页 共 17 页第 17 页 共 17 页第 17 页 共 17 页第 17 页 共 17 页第 17 页 共 17 页第 17 页 共 17 页第 17 页 共 17 页
