2018年湖北成人学位英语考试冲刺试题及答案五
三、完型填空(41-50)
Friendship is unconditional and uncritical, based only on mutual respect and the ability to enjoy each other′s company. These authority figures never saw the way one of us could do something outrageous, and the rest of us would joke about it for days. We could have fun doing absolutely nothing at all--because the 41__________ we provided each other with was enough. Rather than discussing operas, Lewinsky, or the weather, we enjoyed just 42__________ each other without any one of us trying to outsmart the others. Still, I realize that these adults had a 43__________ to be concerned about the direction my friends were 44__________ ;I also was concerned for them,but I wasn′t about to 45__________ them.
Many times I would advise my friends that some activity may be 46__________ or to think things through before doing something, but I would never claim to hold the moral high ground and to condescend to them. When Marvin would begin, rolling joints, when Alisa would tell me she skipped school because of a hangover, or when Merriam would tell me that her new boyfriend was in a street gang,I expressed my discomfort with their 47__________ How-ever,I never 48__________ them with the threat of taking my friendship away. Contrary to the commercials on television, you can have 49__________ who use drugs. In fact, probably everyone does without 50__________ it.
41.答案()。
A.gift B.present C.company D.friendship
答案:C
解析:【译文】
友谊是无条件、不带偏见的;彼此相互尊重,并且喜欢和对方在一起,就是友谊。这些权威人士永远不会明白为什么我们有人做了一件非常令人震惊的事,其他人会为这个笑好几天。我们在一起的时候即使什么也不做,也会感到开心——因为大家聚在一起就已足够;不去谈论戏剧、莱温斯基或者天气,大家只是享受那份闲来荡去的惬意,谁也不用绞尽脑汁想着怎样一较高下,分清孰优孰劣。然而,我知道那些大人很担心我朋友的将来;我也有同感,但并没有打算要和他们绝交。
所以我常常提醒他们有些活动是很危险的,或是做某件事之前要深思,我不会把道德标准束之高阁而去参与他们其中;当马文想尝试一下大麻的滋味,或者阿莉萨告诉我她因为宿醉而逃课,又或者玛丽安说她的新男友是街上的一个小混混时,我只是为他们感到不安,但我从来没想到以绝交威胁他们。和电视广告不同,你们也可能会结交吸毒的朋友。实际上,也许每个人都有这样的经历,但自己并没有意识到。
