【解题导语】
1.A 当时Dr Offutt是作者的老师,所以应向学生―解释‖他们将要学习的内容。speak表示说话的内容时是不及物动词,teach用在此处丝毫没有意义。
2.C 根据but一词可推测作者现在虽然身为校长,可当年并不知未来如何。
3.D 他不仅教育作者思考,而且以大量事例让作者―信服‖。根据本句中的as much by example可知是举例让作者相信他的话。 4.A 根据下文的our relationship changed可判断此项正确。后三项分别表示―职位‖、―形势‖、―条件;状况‖,在文中都没有信息支持。
5.B 几年后,作者被―任命‖为系主任,此处name是动词,表示 ―任命;提名‖。A项表示 ―指出‖,应改为appointed。
6.D 本句中间部分提到作者以前的英语老师仍然在此处工作,所以作者认为管理这个系的工作极具―挑战‖性。
7.C 根据but一词可知Dr Offutt自始至终―支持‖作者。下一句提供了暗示。
8.A 上文提到作者很茫然,不知所措,由此可知他给作者提供―建议‖。此处,根据后面give宾语的内容也可以判断此项正确。
9.B 本段第一句提到作者即将出任另一所学校的校长,由此可知这是一次―机会‖。根据本句的前一句可知作者并没有决定去担当此任,所以A项不正确;C项表示 ―占据;占有;职业‖,与语义不符。
10.C 上文提到作者遇到困难时他总是提供帮助和支持,由此可判断此项正确。下—句也是暗示。
11.D 伟大的老师有―取之不尽的‖课程资源财富。A、C两项有一定的干扰牲,但不能很好地与great相搭配。
