Like many perfectionists, I truly believed that self-sufficiency was a virtue. And 36 my brain was so good at finding what it was looking for, I noticed every single time that idea got proved 37, and so I always had lots of 38 for why it really was better if I just handled everything myself.
This kind of thinking, friends, was the 39 in disguise (伪装).
My self-reliance came in handy when I was a kid in the seventies and in adulthood when I was an independent 40 Then, in the first years of 41the Organized Artist Company, I found myself 42 everything I could about websites, copywriting, graphic design, etc. Later whenever one of my business friends 43 about how her website was being held hostage (人质) by her designer, I 44 felt too satisfied. 45 if mistakes were made in my business, they were all mine.
Now this was where my false 46 showed up—in not wanting others to know I made mistakes. If I had other people 47 me, they would see my errors and 48. Working alone, I could keep up a pretty good display of 49. But as the Organized Artist Company became increasingly 50, I realized I was doing harm to the people I was trying to serve by attempting to do everything myself. I was 51 my growth and the depth of my work.
I had built a business with my own two hands, and I 52 with a business that I could hold in my own two hands. Cozy, 53 limited in scope (范围).
Once I was willing to control my ego( 自负) and admit that my vision of self-sufficiency was a 54 my business took a remarkable leap forward, and revenue 55. Little change, big difference. 36. A. while 37. A. clear 38. A. evidence

答案:36-40 BDABD 41-45 ACDCD 46-50BABCB 51-55 ACADB 详细解析:
第36题根据句意,此处表达的是自从我的大脑已经好到可以明白它到底在追寻什么的时候,选since自从。 第37题根据上文的self-sufficiency和so good at…作者表达自己十分自信,四个选项中只有right可以表达这种情感,故选D。
第38题“所以我总是会有很多证据来证明如果我自己干我会干的更好”,根据后文的why易得选evidence。第39题friends为插入语,作者在告诉读者这种想法是十分不好的,是伪装中最坏的一种,四个选项中只有devil为贬,故易得B。
第40题往下看,下一句,作者创办艺术公司,前后呼应,可知作者自己也是一名独立艺术家,故选D。 第41题“当我自己在经营一家艺术公司的时候”,run运营,经营。
第42题根据上文,作者是一个喜欢单干的人,所以在他运营一家艺术公司的时候,他开始学着去做各种各样的事情,learning学着去做,其他三个选项都不符合语境。 第43题根据上文,此处应该为抱怨,故填complained,选D。
8 / 22
第44题作者此时私下里觉得太满足了,故填secretly,选C。
第45题A至多,B最终,C充分的,D至少,“至少我工作上所有出现的错误都可以由我一人来承担(他人不用知道)”,根据作者情感选D。
第46题作者开始反省自己,发现自己当时的错误的骄傲,pride,故选B。
第47题作者想的是,如果其他人帮我的话,他们就会看到我失误以及判断错误,但是如果我单干的话,我就可以假装自己干得非常好。Helping帮助,选A。 第48题见47解析,misjudgment判断失误。 第49题见47解析,excellence优秀,卓越。
第50题句意“但是当我的艺术公司办的越来越成功的时候,我发觉我这样单干其实是对那些我服务的人的伤害,我这样其实是限制了我自己的发展和我工作的深度”,50题肯定是个褒义词,表示公司越办越好,successful成功,选B。
第51题见50题解析,limit限制,选A。
第52题根据句意,作者通过自己的双手创办了一家公司,但是因为一直是自己单干不去寻求他人的帮助,所以这个公司的最终也做不大,I could hold in myown hands是形象的说法,end up以…告终,选C。 第53题根据上文,尽管舒适,但也被限制。But表示前后转折,选A。
第54题作者在反省自己的自以为是,根据文章主旨应该填一个贬义词来修饰self-sufficiency,四个选项中只有trap为贬义,故选D。
第55题与前面半句话take a remarkable leap forward进行对应,故此空填double,事业路途加长,故选B。 【附完形全文翻译】
和许多完美主义者一样,我真的认为自给自足是一种美德。 而且由于我的大脑是如此的善于找到它正在寻找的东西,我注意到每一个想法都被证明是正确的,所以我总是有大量的证据来解释为什么如果我自己处理所有的事情,它真的会更好。
这种想法,朋友啊,原来是伪装的魔鬼。
在70 年代和成年时,我是一个独立的艺术家,我的自立就派上用场了。 然后,在开办有组织的艺术家公司的头几年里,我发现我自己在学习任何关于网站、文案、平面设计等方面的知识。 后来,每当我的一个商业上的朋友抱怨她的网站是如何被她的设计师劫持的,我暗自觉得太满足了。至少如果我的生意犯了错误,他们都是我的。
这就是我的虚假骄傲出现的地方—我不想让别人知道我犯了错误。如果我让别人帮助我,他们会看到我的错误和误判。 独自工作,我可以保持优秀的表现。
9 / 22
但是随着有组织的艺术家公司变得越来越成功,我意识到自己凡事都亲历亲为反而对那些我想去服务的人造成了伤害。我限制了自己的成长和工作的深度。
我曾经用双手建立了自己的生意,最后拥有了一个自己的双手能掌控的生意。舒适,但范围有限。 一旦我愿意控制我的自负,承认我自给自足的愿景是一个陷阱,我的事业取得了显著的飞跃,收入增加了一倍。结果变化不大,差别很大。

ELECTRICITY IS AT THE CORE OF MODERN LIFE. DESPITE THIS, THE FULL STORY OF THIS REVOLUTIONARY FORCE HAS REMAINED UNTOLD—UNTIL NOW.
Simply Electrifying offers the comprehensive story of one of mankind’s most important journeys: from a time when only a few could imagine a world with electricity to today when, for most of us, a world without electricity would be unimaginable.
Since the birth of the modern science of electricity 265 years ago,
mankind has built an impressive structure to produce, deliver, and use electricity, thanks to a combination of pioneering science, innovative technology, wise business strategy, and pervasive (到处存在的)economic and environmental regulation.
Simply Electrifying brings to life the stories of the people that made it all possible—from early pathfinders like Benjamin Franklin, Michael Faraday, James Clerk Maxwell, and Albert Einstein to innovators such as Samuel Morse, Thomas Edison, George Westinghouse, and Nikola Tesla. In modern
times, business strategists and economic and environmental regulation driven by many, including President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Rachel Carson, and even President Barack Obama, have shaped how we use and understand electricity in crucial ways. Today, Elon Musk and others are on the edge of again changing the way we think about and interact with it.
Simply Electrifying is painstakingly researched and beautifully written, showing us how both profit-makers and policy-makers must use a wide-angle lens to truly understand the past and predict the future.
