解析:

本文为议论文。文中提到作者身边对competition(竞争)的不同观点。一种是拼尽全力赢得比赛的人,他们认为输赢是生死攸关的事情,只有获胜才能体现个人价值。另一种人极力反对竞争,他们认为人们竞争压力过大,导致人际关系不友好,而且这些人极力逃避努力奋斗,认为如果尽力去做而没有成功会导致自己不被别人承认,因此他们不做努力,以此做为失败的借口,“我没有去努力,因此失败也没什么了不起!”作者对这两种态度运用了“sadly”和“mistaken”来评论,并在结尾表示,只有这种对成功的恐惧缓解,才能体会竞争的真正含义。

36.C  value此处为动词,意为“重视,看重”

37.D  be responsible for“对…负责”。意思为“他们相信,是竞争带来了社会的进步和繁荣。本题易误选B。

38.A  由前文可知,另一部分人认为竞争是不好的。

39.B  lead to“导致”。竞争会导致人际关系不友好。

40.B  hold the belief持有这样的观点。

41.B  他们的个人价值取决于他们在网球和其它技巧方面的表现(perform)得如何。

42.A   in the (…) pursuit of success对成功的追求。in search of 寻找; in memory of 为纪念..; in behalf of为…的利益。本题易误选BC。

43.C  忘记培养的人类的其它素质是令人悲哀的事情。

44.C  根据上文可以看出,此处为转折之意。

45.D  根据前文意思,后面应说“另一些人持有相反的观点。受前文lost in the desire的影响,本题易误选A。

46.A  根据前面的only可以看出后面应是相反内容。句意为”只重视获胜者而不关注普通的选手。”

47.B  根据下文可以看出应选blame“责备,谴责”。句意为“那些人强烈谴责竞争”本题易误选A。

48.D  achieve (one’s) success取得胜利。

49.C  从下文可知:用不去尝试/努力(怕失败),以此做为失败的借口。本题易误选A。

50.D  根据上文可以看出前后是因果关系。

51.D  根据后面的the same可以看出本题应选D。本题易误选C,如选C,与the same不符。

52.A  此处that=the belief。that和it 表示特指。that与所指名词为同类,但不是同一个,而it 与所指名词为同一个;one指代单数可数名词,泛指同类事物中的一个。本题易误选C。

53.A  两者都是错误的观点。

54. B  in comparison of“与……比较”; in consequence of... 的结果, 因为...的缘故, 由于;in common with如同一样;in connection with 与...有关系

55.B  only修饰状语且放在句首时,主句谓语要倒装。
