Banked Cloze

Unit 1

Where there is a will, there is a way. This proverb means that if you are really

determined to do something, however difficult it might be, you will (1)

eventually find a

way to do it well. The (2)

premier point is that you must have the will to achieve

success.

Ninety percent of the failures that occur are due to the fact that there is no strong

will involved. Many people simply say that they want something, but they do not make

any (3)

endeavor to achieve it. So, instead of getting it, they u the poorest excu to

explain the situation away.

On many occasions, people tend to (4)bypass （繞過）every minute obstacle,

making the objective impossible to attain. In reality, if they have the will to succeed,

they can get rid of the(5) handicaps and achieve their goals.

Only tho with a(n) (6)committed and focud will and spirit can fight their

（堅定的）way to final victory. Many a famous man has the same experience. They

have (7)attained（獲得，達到） their prestige becau they have had the will

to (8)transcend apparently insuperable (無法克服的) obstacles. Many artists,

statesmen, writers and inventors have managed to succeed becau they posss a

fierce will, which has helped them to accomplish major(9)feats（業績）.

Therefore, we can e that the main thing which one needs is a strong will.

Weak-willed people never climb to the top. They collap at the(10)slightest u of

force against them. Strong-willed people, on the other hand, will stand up against all

odds and will make it a point to succeed.

Unit 2 Social anxiety symptoms often begin during adolescence. It's a developmental

process that is (1)

characterized （以…為特征）by profound psychological changes,

especially in terms of how we relate to others. One of the most

frustrating (2)aspects（of the adolescent years is the tendency for lf-focus and

方面）a decrea in the (3)amount of focus we have for the feelings and needs of others.

While the changes are fairly universal, tho of us who were born with a shy

temperament can carry the adolescent fears, which may never (4)recede （后退）, into

adulthood. An anxious temperament caus our brains to react forcibly

when (5)expod to the stress of sudden awareness of our peers and gradually we

become more and more vulnerable. Our brains label the fear of exposure or

embarrassment as highly dangerous. This may result in a(n) (6)vicious circle（惡性循環）for many years: excessive lf-consciousness and inhibition when you feel you are

being obrved.

To cope with the problem, I would like to (7)challenge you to strive for incread

focus on other people, in place of your (8)excessive （過多的）focus on yourlf. Yes,

I know, this is easier said than done. The fear may cau you to feel that you will lo

control or make a fool of yourlf when you are in the spotlight. But if you begin to build

a new respon, in (9)reaction（反應） to your fears, you will gradually build up a

stronger

and more positive

1

respon. Remember, don't let

lf-consciousness (10)paralyze（麻痹）you! Be courageous!

Unit 3

Audrey Hepburn was a beautiful actress and model, who became one of the

most successful and well-known actress in the film (1)domain.（領域，范圍） She was a fashion icon and role model for women all over the world, helping

to (2)define （規定）a particular type of fresh, vulnerable, elfin

beauty.

Today's (3)popularity （流行）of the slim fashion model is due to Audrey Hepburn's

influence. Although she appeared frail (脆弱的), she was (4)mentally strong.

（精神上）At the end of her acting career when she entered a(n) (5) diplomatic（外交的） career

as a Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF, she was so solidly (6)committed（堅定的） to

her cau that she was held in highest esteem (尊重) by even the most hardened

politicians.

Audrey originally started working for UNICEF in 1954, doing radio prentations. She

always said it was happy to (7)devote her life to helping impoverished (窮困的)

children after her own good fortune in (8)surviving（幸存） the hardship of the Nazi

occupation of Holland. She began her permanent ambassadorship in 1988

and (9)embarked（乘飛機）on trips to many countries. She was always positive:

"People in the places don't know Audrey Hepburn, but they recognize the name

UNICEF. When they e UNICEF their faces light up, becau they know that

something is happening." In 1992, her (10) humanitarian（人道主義的） work with

tho in need was recognized when she was awarded the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian

Award by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for her contribution to

humanity.

Unit 4

"Why would you leave behind your comfortable bed, your home, your family and

friends? Why do you want to go alone?" When you are living out of a backpack for a

period of time, you may often get questioned why. I ldom get time to sit down

and (1)contemplate

the reason I travel, but I believe that you only begin to truly

（思考）live once you step outside of your(2)comfort （舒適）zone.

My first overas trip was at 14 years old, which (3)sparked（my curiosity for the

激發）world. Since finishing high school I have (4)ventured （冒險前進）through various

countries and been amazed by all the (5)diver （不同的）cultures scattered around

the globe. My eyes are my greatest ast as they have (6)witnesd the most

beautiful scenes that replay in my mind every day: (7)stunning （極好的）landscapes,

friendly locals, breath-taking architecture, and food that makes your mouth water once

your eyes catch a(n) (8)glimp.

Traveling teaches you to be independent in the most (9)positive（積極的） way. I know

how to depend on mylf, go out and meet people, and not let anyone el's

expectations (10)dictate（my life. Every day I e my dream and every day

控制、支配）it's in a new place. I am 22 years young. I quite agree with Anthony Bourdain, "If you're

22, physically fit, hungry to learn and be better, I urge you to travel. Find out how other

people live and eat and cook. Learn from them, wherever you go."

Unit 5

In a study conducted in the UK, it was found that only four out of every

five (1)employees were happy at work. Surprisingly, contrary to popular (2)notion（見, friendly, supportive colleagues and a good manager, instead of the salary or

解、概念）the love for the work, have been found to be the (3)primary（主要的） caus of

happiness at work. So, how do you keep your spirits up and, at the same

time, (4)foster（培養） a n of joy on the job? Here is one of the tips to help you on

your way to finding happiness and complete job satisfaction in the workplace.

Start with a positive outlook. Happiness is a state of mind; it (5)reflects（反映） an

attitude, though not many people realize it. Staying happy at work is totally bad on

your (6)motivations（動機） and on a positive outlook toward your job, not

on (7)monetary（貨幣性）rewards or material gain. Dwelling on the good (8)aspectsabout what makes you unhappy is

（方面） of the work rather than rattling on and on

the basic key to happiness. Negativity and (9)gossiping（閑聊） about bad things may

be easy, but it is looking at the bright side that makes for the challenging part of a job.

As Francesca Reigler puts it, "Happiness is an attitude. We either make

ourlves(10)mirable（痛苦的）, or happy and strong. The amount of work is the

same."

World War II was a global war that was under way by 1939, and ended in 1945. It

Unit 6

involved a vast majority of the world's nations, including all of the great powers,

eventually forming two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Axis (軸心國). It

was the most (1)appalling（吸引人的） and widespread war in human history, with

(2)innumerable（無數的）people rving in military units. In a state of "total war", the

major participants placed their entire economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities at

the rvice of the war effort, erasing the (3)distinction（區別） between civilian and

military resources. Estimates for the total number of (4)casualties（人員傷亡）

of the war vary, becau many deaths went (5)unrecorded（未記錄的）. Most suggest

that some 60 million people died in the war. Many civilians died becau of dia,

starvation, and (6)massacres（屠殺）.

The war ended with the total victory of the Allies over the Axis in 1945. World War II

altered the political alignment and social structure of the world. The United Nations was

established to (7)foster（培育） international cooperation and prevent future conflicts.

The Soviet Union and the United States emerged as rival superpowers, tting

the (8)stage（階段） for the so-called Cold War, which lasted for the next 46 years.

Meanwhile, the influence of the European great powers started to (9)decline（降低、削弱）, while the decolonization of Asia and Africa began. Most countries who

industries had been damaged moved toward economic recovery. Political integration,

especially in Europe, emerged as an effort to (10)stabilizepost-war relations.

Unit 7

The American economy is built on credit. In the last decade, however, cheap credit

made it too easy for people to buy hous bad on pure speculation that real estate

value would endlessly continue to increa. But the housing (1)slump（暴跌） t off a

chain reaction in our economy. Individuals and investors could no longer rell their

homes for a quick profit, (2)mortgages（抵押） no longer became affordable for many

homeowners, and thousands of mortgages defaulted, leaving investors and financial

institutions to face the terrible conquences.

Ironic, isn't it? Yes, it is true that credit got us into this mess, but it is also true that our

economy is (3)incredibly（極其）unstable right now, and being that it is built on credit,

it needs an inflow of cash or it could come (4)crashing down. This is something

（蕭條）no one wants to e as it would (5)spread（傳播）through our economy and into the

world markets in a matter of hours, potentially causing a worldwide recession.

Credit in and of itlf is not a bad thing. Credit (6)promotes（保證） growth and jobs.

Poor u of credit, however, can be (7)catastrophic, which is what we are on

（災難的）the (8)verge（范圍）of eing now. So long as the rescue plan comes with changes to

lending regulations and more (9)oversight（監督） of the industry, there is potential

to (10)stabilize（使穩定） the market, which is what everyone wants. Whether or not it

works is to be en, but as it has already been voted on and pasd, we should all

hope it does.

Unit 8

Laughter is a(n) (1)automatic respon to being touched by a tickle

（無意識的）(搔癢) —)

— a reaction that a child would naturally be provoked into. This puts the tickler

in (2)charge of（控制）how much or how long the child laughs. We adults don't read

children's minds, but we often have a (3)presumption（推測）that we can. So we

usually think we're aware of what's too much tickling and when to stop. But it is

possible to trap our children without knowing it. We parents become (4)attached to（依tickling becau it ems to be a (5)handyshortcut（捷徑） to laughter. We wish

附） that our children are happy and love us, and tickling becomes our shortcut to get

assured.

Rather than forcing laughter in this way, we can (6)confer upon（樹立） them inner

confidence if we will get down on the floor and invite them to be in playful

physical(7)contact with（聯系）us. If we find ways to give them much of the power, our

children will laugh and laugh. Games like "I have a hundred hugs for you!" or "Where's

Jared? I know he's around here somewhere." or "Oh, no! I can't get this horsy rider off

my back!" let children laugh and laugh as we try to catch them, or try to find them, or try

to (8)bounce them（晃動） off our backs, and fail over and over.

The physical contact that requires more creativity than tickling allows us to

(9)tumble around, to press our heads against their stomachs here and there for

（打滾）a cond, and to manage an embrace before they make another daring escape. We

get our affection across without trapping our children. And we give them a chance to be

4

inventive as they u their (10)intellectto figure out a hundred ways to outsmart

（智力）us.
