That was thirty-eight years 52 when I was fifteen. I have never told anyone about it before, 53 have I tried to explain to myself why not.
The obvious explanation is that I could not admit I had seen the title 54 admitting that I had been looking at the things on his desk. 55 there must have been more behind it. Whatever it was, it has become a good example of how a little mistake can trap (使陷入) you in a more serious moral corner (道德困境).

高考英语真题完形填空
高考完形填空命题趋势： 在高考所有题型中，对知识和能力的考查，完形填空可能是要求最高的。一篇250词左右的短文，被挖去20个单词或短语，要求考生在有限的时间内，运用学过的词汇、语法、语言逻辑推理以及跨文化差异等知识和能力等进行准确的判断，从而使文章通顺畅达，恢复原样。近10年来，完形填空测试的命题趋势如下： 1．由于完形填空是考学生综合运用英语能力的题型，所以该题型能比较全面地测试考生阅读理解能力、逻辑分析以及推断能力和语法运用能力；2．测试上述能力的手段是将语言点、语法点放在一个完整的语篇环境中；3．每篇文章都有一个主题； 4．每篇文章开头1-2句不挖空，以便让考生在开始作答时对文章有初步的了解。 应试对策： 1．考主应迅速地通读全文，了解文章的主旨； 2．结合文后的备选答案，本着先易后难的原则初步作出选择，以便为深人解题扫清一般障碍； 3．抓住上下文的信息词和信息句，主要从语意选择入手。浯法选择亦应注意； 4．在完形填空的挖空中，主要考查下列知识： A．名词、代词及其习惯用法； B．介词、连词及其习惯用法； C．从句知识； D．动词类是完形填空的主要考查项目，如非谓浯动词、动词词组、动词在语意上和习惯用法上的辨异知识、虚拟浯气和情态动词等； E．完形填空的短文一般为叙事性文章，常伴有倒叙、插叙、描述、议论等．尤其要注意到短文的首尾呼应。有时有出乎意料的结局； F．考生应充分注意语言的跨文化交际性原则，不可忽略文化差异；G．考生亦应从推理以及常识等认知角度来考虑答题； H．心态平和、沉着冷静是重要的非智力因素之一，不可急躁、随意。
