【答案】8.A9.C10.A11.B

【解析】

【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇議論文。作者討論了公平問題，闡述了人生沒有絕對的公平，但要勇敢面對不公平的道

理。

[8題詳解】

推理判斷題。通讀全文，尤其根據(jù)第三段中^Regardlessofthechallengestheyfaced,theyhadthe

charactertochoosecontributionovercomplaint.（不管他們面臨怎樣的挑戰(zhàn)，他們都有選擇貢獻(xiàn)而不

8

是抱怨。）”可知，文章的主要目的是要告訴人們要努力進(jìn)取而不是抱怨。故選A。

[9題詳解】

詞句猜測題。劃線詞句前文“Wehavelittlechoiceearlyinlife.（我們在生命的早期幾乎沒有選擇。）”

說明人生的初期沒有選擇，相對而言，人生的后期就有了選擇，從而推知劃線詞所在句“Butaswegrow

older,choicesabound.（但隨著年齡的增長，我們的選擇abound）”中劃線詞應(yīng)為“有了（選擇），有更

多（的選擇）”的意思，和C選項“Existinnumbers.（大量存在）"，故選C。

【10題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中“Ihavelongbelievedthatwhilewehavenocontroloverthebeginning
