语篇解读：文章给我们介绍了红十字会的创立、任务及该组织所做的重大贡献。
1.【答案】whose
【解析】考查定语从句。此处是定语从句，先行词是organization与task的是隶属关系是“这个组织的任务”，表示“谁的”用whose。whose task在定语从句中做主语=and
its task，故填whose。句意：红十字会是一个国际组织，其任务就是救死扶伤。
2.【答案】or
【解析】考查连词。几者是选择关系，此句是否定句用or表示并列，故填or。
3.【答案】in
4.【答案】dead
【解析】考查形容词。此处和动词be连用，与or后的 injured并列，要用形容词，故填dead。句意：(红十字会的故事起始于一个名叫亨利·杜南的瑞士商人，1895年他
在意大利目睹了一场战争)战争过后，有四万战士或死或伤，然而没有人来帮助他
们。
5.【答案】was established
【解析】考查动词的时态语态。根据句中时间in 1863可知用过去时，根据主语和动词的关系可知是红十字会被建立，故填过去时的被动形式was established。句意：结果
于1863年，红十字会在瑞士的日内瓦成立。
6.【答案】another

士想要红十字会除了在战争时代之外，也在和平时代去帮助人们。

will ___1___.
Sometimes you are victorious, and sometimes you become disappointed. The ___2___ experiments, however,
are no less valuable than the experiments that finally prove successful; in fact, you ___3___ learn more from your “failures” than you do from your ___4___. If you have made what you think to be a mistake or failed to live up to your own ___5___, you will most likely put up a barrier between your essence and the part of you that is the alleged(声称的)wrong-doer.
However, viewing past actions as ___6___ implies guilt and blame, and it is not possible to learn anything
meaning while you are engaged in blaming. ___7___, forgiveness is required when you are severely judging
yourself. Forgiveness is the act of erasing an ___8___ debt. There are four kinds of forgiveness.
The first is beginner forgiveness for yourself.
The second of forgiveness is beginner forgiveness for another.

resentment.
It is only through forgiveness that you can erase wrongdoing and ___19___ the memory. When you can ___20___ release the situation, you may come to see it as a necessary part of your growth.
语篇解读：人的成长是一个不断尝试、不断经历失误、又不断获得新知的过程。在这一过程中，人们要懂
得四种宽恕。只有做到宽恕，人们才能忘却过错，净化心灵。当人们最终把自己解
脱出来时，人们也许就会把它看成是成长过程中必不可少的一部分。
1.A. turn out B. turn up C. break up D. break out 【答案】A
【解析】根据上文“you can never quite be certain”和下文的第二段第一句话“Sometimes you are victorious, and sometimes you become disappointed.”说明“人们对
自己所采取的行动的结果是不能肯定的” turn out结果是；turn up出现，开大；
break up分手，分裂，瓦解，放假；break out突然发生，爆发。故选A。
本段译文：人的成长是一个不断尝试、经历磨练和失误，最终变得聪明起来的过程。每当你充满信心采取行动时，你永远无法肯定会有什么样的结果。
2.A. important B. engaged C. failed D. successful
【答案】C
【解析】与下文的“successful成功的”相对应的词应该是“failed失败的”。故选C。
important重要的；engaged已订婚的，(指电话)占线的，忙碌的；successful成
功的。
3.A. obviously B. necessarily C. continuously D. usually
【答案】D
【解析】根据常识判断应该是“通常情况下”。其他三个选项(明显地，必要地，连续地)明显不符合逻辑。故选D。
4.A. success B. failure C. fault D. benefit
【答案】A
5.A. ability B. expectations C. belief D. experiences
【答案】B
【解析】live up to one’s expectations不辜负某人的期望。ability能力；belief信任，信念；experiences经验。故选B。
本段译文：有时你是胜利者，有时你又很失望(你或许成功，或许失败)。然而，失败的尝试，其价值如同于成功的价值。事实上，通常你从失败里学到的东西比在成功里学到
的东西还要多。如果你犯了一个你认为的错误或辜负了自己的期望，你很可能会
在你的真正自我与所谓的犯错者之间竖立起一道障碍。
6. A. mistakes B. victories C. experiments D. fantasies
【答案】A
【解析】根据下文的“guilt and blame内疚和责备”说明这儿应该是“mistakes错误”。
victories胜利；experiments实验；fantasies幻想，想象。故选A。
7.A. Still B. Therefore C. Instead D.
However
【答案】B
【解析】上文说“it is not possible to learn anything meaning while you are engaged in blaming(而当你忙着自责时，你根本不可能从中汲取任何有益的东西)”下文又
说“forgiveness is required when you are severely judging yourself(当你苛
刻要求自己的时候，你需要原谅你自己)”，上下文存在逻辑上的因果关系。故选B。
8.A. absurd B. original C. emotional D. unusual 【答案】C
【解析】absurd荒谬的，荒唐的；original原始的，最初的；emotional情感的，令人动情的，易动感情的，感情脆弱的；unusual不常见的，不普通的，难得的。“Forgiveness
宽恕”应该属于“情感的”的范畴。故选C。
本段译文：然而，把过去的行为视为错误隐含着你在内疚和自责(如果你认为过去的行为都是错误，这势必会让你内疚、自责)。而当你忙着自责时，你根本不可能从中汲
取任何有益的东西。因此，当你苛刻要求自己的时候，你需要原谅你自己。宽恕
是一种消除情感负担的行为。宽恕有四种。
9.A. ordinary B. advanced C. alternative D. certain
【答案】B
10.A. wisdom B. mercy C. injury D. shame
【答案】D
【解析】wisdom智慧；mercy同情，怜悯；injury伤害；shame不像话，羞耻，羞愧。句中的“the ones=the serious misbehaviors极大恶行”，那么对于“恶行”当然应
该感到“羞愧”啦。故选D。
11.A. thought B. approach C. behavior D. purpose 【答案】C
【解析】thought思想；approach方法；behavior行为；purpose目的。根据上文中“gap”
我们就要考虑在“your standards标准”和“什么之间”会产生“gap”，很显然
应该是“标准和行为”之间产生“gap”。
本段译文：(第一种是对自己的初级宽恕。第二种是对他人的初级宽恕。)
第三种是对自己更深层次的宽恕。这种宽恕是针对自己深感羞愧的极大恶行而言的。当你做
了某件违背自己的价值观和道德观的事情时，你的实际行为和你的为人准则之间就出现了一
道裂缝。
12.A. punishing B. forgiving C. blaming D. praising 【答案】B
【解析】这儿仍然在阐述第三种宽恕，故选B。punishing惩罚；blaming责怪；praising 赞扬。
13.A. mean B. prove C. reflect D. represent
【答案】A
【解析】这是对上文“In such a case, you need to work very hard at forgiving yourself for these deeds so that you can close this gap. 这种情况下，你需要努力去
原谅自己的过失，以便修复这道裂缝”的解释，所以用“mean意味着(这并不意味
着你应该急于原谅自己而不感到后悔……)”。
14.A. and B. or C. but D. so
【答案】C
【解析】上文说“这并不意味着你就应该急于原谅自己而不感到后悔……”下文又接着说“很长一段时间总沉溺于这些(内疚，自责)情感之中是不健康的”，上下文具有转折关
系，用but。
本段译文：这种情况下，你需要努力去原谅自己的过失，以便修复这道裂缝。当然，这并不意味着你应该急于原谅自己而不感到后悔，但是很长一段时间总沉溺于这些
(内疚，自责)情感之中是不健康的。
15.A. uncertain B. premier C. next D. last
【答案】D
【解析】共有四种宽恕，而上面已经提到了三种宽恕，所以这是第四个宽恕即最后一个。故选D。uncertain不确定的，不明确的；premier首要的，至上的；next紧接在后
的，次于的，贴近的，紧邻的；last最后的。
本段译文：第四种可能是最难的一种宽恕——是对他人更深层次的宽恕。
16.A. essential B. valuable C. impossible D. unavoidable
【答案】C
【解析】essential必要的，本质的；valuable有价值的；不可能的；unavoidable不可避免的，不得已的。根据上文“生活中，有时你可能受到过极大的委屈，极深的伤害”
说明“委屈和伤害”的程度已经到了“(自己)不可能宽恕他人”的程度。故选C。
本段译文：生活中，有时你可能受到过极大的委屈，极深的伤害，而且到了一个似乎是不可原谅的程度。
17.A. trapped B. located C. lost D. occupied 【答案】A
【解析】(be)trapped in被困在……，陷入于……；(be)located in位于……；(be)lost in 全神贯注于……，沉湎于……；(be)occupied in使忙碌于，使从事于。根据下文
的“victimhood”分析说明是“身陷其中”。故选A。
18.A. drive B. drag C. put D. shift
【答案】D
19.A. keep B. refresh C. weaken D. clean
【答案】D
【解析】上文中的“erase抹去，清除，擦掉”提示答案用“clean净化，使……干净”，“erase wrongdoing and clean the memory忘却过错，净化心灵”。故选D。保
持；refresh使恢复，使振作，使焕然一新，翻新；weaken(使)削弱，(使)变弱。
20.A. naturally B. finally C. definitely D. initially
【答案】B
【解析】naturally自然地；finally终于，最终；definitely明确地，确切地，一定地；
initially最初，开始。这是文章总结性的话语，根据句意选B。
本段译文：只有做到宽恕，你才能忘却过错，净化心灵。于是，当你最终把自己解脱出来时，你也许就会把它看成是成长过程中必不可少的一部分。

高考必背英语词汇辨析
高考必背英语词汇辨析-B字头 1、base与basis 这两个词在作名词时可表示"基础；基地"，但其意义是不同的。base用来指某物体的具体"基础"或底部的"支柱"。 例如： We camped at the base of the mountain.我们在山脚下扎营。 Our company's base is in New York , but we have extended many branches all around the world.我们公司的总部设在纽约，但是分公司遍及全世界。 而basis则用来表示抽象意义上的"基础"，常用于比喻句。 What's the basis of your opinion?你的意见的根据是什么？ We are willing to develop economic relations with all countries on the basis of mutual benefits.我们愿意在互利互惠的原则下同各国发展经济关系。 2、be about to 这个短语与"be to do","be going to do"两个短语都可用来表示"将要做某事，但含义和用法有所不同。be about to 从时间上来讲，等于be just going to do，意思是"即将，马上就要去做"。因此，在由这个短语构成的句子中，一般不可再加上表示时间的状语（如at once, next） 例如： I am about to leave for Shanghai.我将要去上海。 be to do主要表示安排或计划要在将来做的事情，它还可以表示命令等语气，相当于should, must 等。它可以同将来的时间状语连用。 例如： The US President Bill Clinton is to visit Japan next week.美国总统比尔?克林顿将于下周访日。The letter is to be handed to him in person.这封信必须面交他本人。 be going to do 一般可以和be to do 换用，它在通常情况下表示计划，安排或准备去做某事的意向，但并不一定马上去做。它一般都与时间状语连用；此外，它还可以用来表示某种推断或可能性。 例如：What are you going to do for your holiday?假期有什么打算吗？ It's going to rain soon, look at those black clouds.看那些乌云，快要下雨了。

[推荐学习]高考英语 基础知识练习 词汇辨析 名词及其用法辨析的讲解与训练
名词及其用法辨析 高考英语词汇辨析一般在于同义词、近义词的词义和用法辨析、反义词之间的意义差别、词组（短语）的用法异同点以及一些习惯用法和固定搭配等。常见的有形容词与副词辨析、名词及其用法辨析、动词及其短语辨析、代词及其用法辨析、介词和连词等用法辨析。 名词及其用法辨析 1)高考英语名词难点： 名词词义辨析、可数名词与不可数名词；抽象名词的具体化；名词的所有格；名词作定语以及名词固定习语；名词与主谓一致等。在学习过程中，要掌握常用名词的基本用法，注意一词多义和旧词新义。注意辨别词义及其用法时要结合语境。以下几组词是常见易混词难点： （1）sound, noise与voice sound，noise和voice这三个名词都可表示“声音”，但是，它们表示的“声音”并不相同。 sound作“声音”，“响声”讲时，可以指人或动物发出的声音，或物体碰撞的声言。这个词的使用范围很大。可以说，大自然的任何“声音”都可以用sound。如： At midnight he heard a strange sound.半夜里，他听到一种奇怪的声音。 Light travels much faster than sound.光的传播速度比声音快得多。 noise意为“噪音”、“喧闹声”，常指不悦耳、不和谐的嘈杂声。例如： Don’t make any noise!别吵闹!The noise wakes me up.噪音吵醒了我! voice一般指人的声音，说话、唱歌。谈笑都可用voice。sound和noise不仅能指人的声音，还可以表示别的动物发出的声音;而voice除了有时可指鸟的声音外，很少表示其它动物的声音。如：The girl has a beautiful voice.那女孩嗓音很美。They are talking in low voices.他们正小声交谈。 （2）family, house与home family, 家庭，更多人文属性；house, 房子，物质属性；home，指“家、住所”，指一个人（或一家人）居住的地方，也可指一个人出生或长大的地方（乡村、城市或国家等），它具有house所没有的感情色彩（如团聚、思念等），家，家不一定有house； family 的意思是“家庭、家庭成员”，与居住的房子无关。当family作为整体概念的“家庭”讲时是单数；当“家庭成员”讲时是复数。如： Mr. Green's family is very large. 格林先生家里的人很多。 house 指“家”时含义较窄，仅指“房屋”这一建筑物，一般指独门独户的房子，不指楼房。如： New houses are going up everywhere. 到处都是新盖的房子。 There is a house near the river. 河边有座房子。 The American friends are leaving Beijing for home tomorrow. 明天美国朋友要离开北京回国了。 Lin Chong left home for Liang Mountain. 林冲离开家到梁山去了。 （3）sight, view, scene与scenery sight则既可以指场景、眼前看到的景观，又可以指名胜、风景，但表示后者的含义时，习惯上要用复数。如：The sight was quite amusing. 这景象使人感到有趣。 We saw the sights of Hong Kong by bus. 我们乘公共汽车观看香港的风景。Mary walked round the town, looking at the sights. 玛丽在城里到处转，逛各处景点。 view主要指从某处看到的东西或景象，有时也指“风景”，尤指自然美景 （fine natural scenery）。如： From the window there was a clear view of the mountains. 从窗户往外看 是一览无余的群山。 scene 多指某一特定或具体场面所表示的“景色”、“场景”等，可以是室内的也可以是室外的、可以是城市的也可以是乡村的、可以是活动的也可以是静态的等。如： There are some pretty scenes in the park. 公园里有几处美丽的景色。
2019高考英语词汇24练习含解析20
词汇（24） 复习:1、核心单词2、重点短语3、写作句式4、我读我练（词汇应用、句式仿写） 【单句单词语法填空】 1、—Didyouenjoytheparty？ —Yes，We________(treat)wellbyourhosts. 答案:weretreated 根据上下文，这里谈的是举行过的一次聚会，应该用过去时，并且“我们”是被主人招待的，所以需用一般过去时的被动语态。句意:——你喜欢这个聚会吗？——是的，我们的主人很好地招待了我们。 2．Inthelastfewyears， China________(make)greatachievementsinenvironmentalprotecti on. 答案:hasmade 时间状语in/overthelastfewyears通常与现在完成时连用。句意:在过去的几年中，中国在环境保护方面取得了巨大成就。 3．(2015·北京，30改 编)—Dr.Jacksonisnotinhisofficeatthemoment. —Allright.I________(call)himlater. 答案:willcall 据第一句的时态判断，Dr.Jackson目前不在办公室，所以打电话是将来的事。句意:——Dr.Jackson现在不在办公室。——好的，我待会再给他打。 4．(2015·天津，6改 编)Janecan'tattendthemeetingat3o'clockthisafternoonbecauses he________(teach)aclassatthattime.
答案:willbeteaching 根据题干时间状语 3o'clockthisafternoon的提示可知，动作发生时间为将来；而句尾的atthattime为一个特定的时间点，因此，该题强调在将来的大时间背景下的某一个特定时间点发生的事，故用将来进行时。 5．(2015·天津，9改编)Despitethepreviousroundsoftalks，noagreement________(reach)sofarbythetwosides. 答案:hasbeenreached 本句中的时间状语sofar表示“到目前为止”，为现在完成时的标志词。reachnoagreement短语中noagreement作主语，reach要用被动，故结合时态可知填hasbeenreached。 核心单词 1.regulation n. 规则，规章 2.reject vt. 拒绝 3.relation n. 关系；亲属 4.relative n. 亲属，亲戚 5.relax v. (使)放松，轻松 6.relevant adj. 紧密相关的；有意义的 7.reliable adj. 可信赖的，可依靠的 8.relief n. 缓解，消除；救济；援救 9.religious adj. 宗教的 10.remain vi. 剩下；保持，仍是 11.remark n. 谈论；评论 v. 说起；评论 12.remind vt. 提醒，使记起 13.remote adj. 遥远的；偏僻的；疏远的
