You cant _ yourself of it completely but you can _certain fears under certain conditions.A. break; get rid of B. get; overcome C. overcome; rid of D. rid; overcome【答案】D【解析】rid sb of sth 使某人摆脱某物；overcome fears 克服恐惧，get rid of fears 摆脱恐惧，由第一空可以确定只能选 D。句意：恐惧是某种与生俱来的东西。你不可能完全摆脱恐惧，但你可以在某种情况下克服某种恐惧。4.Life is like a winding path surrounded by flowers, butterflies and delicious fruits, _, many of us spend much time looking for happiness around the next corner.A. therefore B. though C. moreover D. otherwise【答案】B【解析】句意：生活宛如一条蜿蜒曲折的小径，周围满是鲜花、蝴蝶和可口的果实，但是我们中很多人还是花费大量的时间到下一个拐角处寻找幸福。前后两句之间为转折关系，故使用 B 项表示转折之意。5.Whats a reasonable tip to leave to the waitress?_, I usually leave 20% of the dinner price.A. Help yourself B. Its up to you C. Thats the point D. Its a deal【答案】B【解析】句意： “给服务员合理的小费应该是多少呢？” “你自己做主，我通常给用餐价格的 20%。 ”所以选 Its up to you。Help yourself“自便” ； Thats the point“这正是问题的关键” ； Its a deal“成交” 。6.I am not so violently bent upon my own opinion _ as to reject any offer proposed by wise menA. as to rejecting B. as to reject C. to reject D. as rejecting【答案
