    共享题干题【2018年真题】Starting a conversation is as easy for some people as eating and breathing.However, if you suffer from social anxiety disorder (SAD), a room full of strangers can be as frightening as moving to a foreign country.If the stranger that you are looking to start a conversation with is an authority figure, this just adds to your anxiety.Here are helpful tips when trying to start a conversation.
     Often the person you are trying to start a conversation_______(91) will have some item of jewelry, an unusual shirt or maybe even a tattoo; something distinctive that tells a story about the_______(92).Items like this give you a starting_______(93) for conversation.
     After you receive a_______(94), the key is to have something else to say that will give you a_______(95) platform on which to build a conversation and a relationship.You need to think of a follow-up_______(96) before you start.This is the key to building a conversation.Follow up with something personal that_______(97) to the other person and that tells them something interesting about you.
     Try the old standby, "Haven't I seen you somewhere before?"_______(98) the right circumstances, this conversation starter can work.If you_______(99) to someone, "You seem really familiar.Do I know you from somewhere?",it makes it very easy to start a conversation.
     All these help_______(100) you to the person and keep the conversation moving: What high school did you_______(101)? Did you play an instrument? Where do you work? I've been to that Starbucks.
     As you go through the details of the other person's life story, you should feel_______(102) to change subject.Remember, you don’t really want to find out if you’ve met before; you want to get to_______(103) each other.
     One of the best ways to start a conversation is to make a funny_______(104) about your surroundings."Hey, doesn't our instructor look like Harry Potter?" or,"Is the guy in the front row asleep?" The goal is not to be mean-spirited or judgmental, so be sure to_______(105) your comments light-hearted.
     Try to invite the other person in on the joke.”Where do you think he keeps his magic wand, in his briefcase?" or "Do you think he's going to sleep through the whole class?" This _______(106) of starting a conversation can be risky.Humor is difficult with an audience whom you don9t know well.However, if you find_______(107) that shares your sense of humor, chances are that it will be the start of a great friendship.
     Remember that any of these tricks is_______(108) to fail some of the time.If you don't get a positive response from somebody, there are always other people that you can approach.If you are_______(109),you will find that over time it will get easier to speak with strangers.As you become more_______(110) and at ease you won't need to rely on tricks to start conversations.


     

    单选题第1题Often the person you are trying to start a conversation_______(91) will have some item of jewelry

    答案解析:本题考点为名词与介词的搭配。
     (1)句式分析。
     原句中,you are trying to start a conversation_____是定语从句,限定先行词 the person,
     这里省略了关系代词whom。定语从句与先行词之间存在结构联系,如本句的先行词
     在定语从句中充当介词宾语,构成搭配to start a conversation with (交谈,谈话,会话)。
     (2)句意判断。
     根据上下文可知,此句意为"通常情况下,你想搭讪的人可能戴着某件首饰,穿着一
     件与众不同的衬衫,甚至可能有纹身"。
     (3)词义辨析。
     本题的四个选项均为介词,但只有with可以与start a conversation搭配。start a
     conversation with sb.是固定搭配,意为"与某人交谈,与某人会话"。第一段第四行中
     的start a conversation with这个表达,也验证with是正确答案。



     

    单选题第2题something distinctive that tells a story about the_______(92)

    A.person

    B.group

    C.staff

    D.Team

    参考答案:A

    登录查看解析 进入题库练习

    答案解析:本题考点为句内衔接。
     (1)句式分析。
     本句的主要结构为 The person ... will have ...;something ... that tells about .。其中,
     something相当于主句宾语的同位语,对主语做补充说明。整个句子都是围绕the
     person展开的,所以首尾均为the person,属于句内衔接中的词汇重复。
     (2)句意判断。
     根据上下文可知,此句意为"能让此人与众不同的东西"。



     

    单选题第3题Items like this give you a starting_______(93) for conversation.

    A.part

    B.pace

    C.place

    D.Point

    参考答案:D

    登录查看解析 进入题库练习

    答案解析:本题考点为固定搭配和习语表达能力。
     (1)句式分析。
     原句 Items like this give you a starting for conversation 中,a starting_____作give的直接宾语,因而,此处应该填名词。
     (2)句意判断。
     上文提到"当你发现对方与众不同的地方时,就可以据此开始搭讪了"。由此可知,本
     句意为"诸如此类的东西都可以作为搭讪的开端"。



     

    单选题第4题After you receive a_______(94)

    A.letter

    B.call

    C.response

    D.Topic

    参考答案:C

    登录查看解析 进入题库练习

    答案解析:本题考点为语境推理能力。
     (1)句式分析。
     原句中 After you receive a____是时间状语从句,the key is to have something else to
     say ...是主句。从句中you作主语,receive作谓语,a 作宾语。不定冠词后应该
     用名词。
     (2)句意判断。
     上文提到开始搭讪,那么根据日常交际的话轮转换,该对方做出反应,所以选择 response。根据第二段最后一句话 Items like this give you a starting____for conversation (诸如此类的东西都可以作为搭讪的开端)可知,本句意为"当你得到回应后,关键是要有别的话题"。



     

    单选题第5题the key is to have something else to say that will give you a_______(95)

    A.joint

    B.Mutual

    C.common

    D.Rare

    参考答案:C

    登录查看解析 进入题库练习

    答案解析:本题考点为语境推理与词义搭配。
     (1)句式分析。
     从句子结构看,原句中,that will give you...是something else的定语从句,其中a_____platform (平台)是give的直接宾语,那么不定冠词与名词之间缺少的应该是一个形容词。而 on which to build a conversation and a relationship (继续对话、拉近关系的)又是platform的定语。由此判断,修饰platform的词应该有"共享的"之意,因此选C。
     (2)句意判断。
     根据前半句话After you receive a _____(当你得到回应后)可知,这里的意思是"关键是要有别的话说,这样,你们就有了一个继续对话、拉近关系的共享平台。"
     (3)词义辨析。
     A.joint adj.共同的,联合的
     B.mutual adj.相互的,彼此的,关系对等的,共同的,共用的
     C. common adj.普通的,共有的,共同的,共享的
     D.rare adj.罕见的,珍稀的
     a common platform 指" 一个共享平台 "。joint 用来修饰 programme, negotiation,measure,
     obligation,resolution,responsibility 等词。mutual 虽也有"共同的,共用的"之意,但
     其主要指mutual friend/acquaintance/interest "共同的朋友/熟人/兴趣爱好"或mutual
     entrance/staircase "共用的入口 / 楼梯"。



     

    单选题第6题You need to think of a follow-up_______(96) before you start.

    A.visit

    B.reply

    C.story

    D.Check

    参考答案:C

    登录查看解析 进入题库练习

    答案解析:本题考点为词语重复。
     (1)句式分析。
     原句是一个带有时间状语从句的复杂句。You need to think of a follow-up_____是主句,
     a follow-up_____作宾语,可见,此处应该填名词。
     (2)句意判断。
     从第二段中的 something distinctive that tells a story about the person (能让此人与众不同
     的东西)这一句,以及后一句话中的Follow up with something personal (接着说一些个
     人话题)可知,这句话意为"在开始前,你需要想一个后续故事"。



     

    单选题第7题Follow up with something personal that_______(97) to the other person and that tells them something interesting about you.

    A.relates

    B.comes

    C.goes

    D.Points

    参考答案:A

    登录查看解析 进入题库练习

    答案解析:本题考点为词语搭配。
     (1)句式分析。
     从句子结构来看,原句中,that_____to the other person 和 that tells ... about you 均为
     something personal的定语从句,that为关系代词,此处应该填动词的单数第三人称形式,
     而且该动词与介词to搭配使用。
     (2)句意判断。
     根据上下文可知,这句意为"接下来,说一些与对方有关的个人话题,告诉他们一些
     你的趣事"。
     (3)词义辨析。
     动词relate, come,go和point均可以和to搭配使用。to relate to sb./sth. "涉及,与  
     有关",to come to sb. "被……想到",to go to sb. "被给予,被……得到",to point to
     sb."指向某人",因此按照语义此处填relates。



     

    单选题第8题_______(98) the right circumstances

    A.Considered

    B.Taken

    C.Supposed

    D.Given

    参考答案:D

    登录查看解析 进入题库练习

    答案解析:本题考点为假设性介词的用法。
     (1)句式分析。
     原句中 this conversation starter can work 是主句,___the right circumstances 作状语,
     可见,此处要填的一定是分词形式或介词。
     (2)句意判断。
     根据语境可知,这句话意为"假如时机合适,这种开场白很奏效"。
     (3)词义辨析。
     considered用作形容词,意为"经过仔细考虑的";taken用作形容词,意为"预留的,
     对……着迷的";supposed用作形容词,意为"误以为,应当的,普遍认为的,允许的";
     given用作介词,意为"(表示原因)考虑到,(表示假设)倘若,假定",后面接名词或
     名词词组,故填Given。

    A.say

    B.refer

    C.turn

    D.Converse

    参考答案:A

    答案解析:本题考点为词语搭配。
     (1)句式分析。
     原句If you_______to someone ...中,you作主语,要填入的动词是谓语,要与to sb.搭配,
     表示"对某人说"。
     (2)句意判断。
     根据上下文可知,这句话的意思是"如果你对某人说"。
     (3)词义辨析。
     A.say v.说  
     B.refer v.指示,咨询,参考
     C.turn v.旋转,翻转,使转向
     D.converse v.谈话
     say,refer和turn均可与to连用,但converse常与with连用。依据语义与固定搭配此处填say。

    登录查看解析 进入题库练习

    答案解析:本题考点为词义辨析与词语搭配。
     (1)句式分析。
     原句 "All these help______you to the person ..." 使用了 help do sth.(有助于做……)。
     you作要填入的动词的宾语,而且该动词能与to搭配。
     (2)句意判断。
     根据上下文可知,本句话意为"所有这些都有助于你和那个人建立联系"。
     (3)词义辨析。
     A.command v.命令,指挥,控制,支配
     B.conduct v.指挥,处理,进行,经营
