But, like any king whose throne (王冠) has been taken away, the Swiss star is already planning secretly his return to power, beginning at this week's US Open. The problem is, many experts think he will never do it. They blame everything from age and tough competition to his racket and psychology.
For years Federer, 27, had enjoyed the view from the top. Competitors saw him as undefeated, and for the most part he was. However, before the 2008 season began, Federer had an illness that stole his strength and clearly affected his play on the court. Ever since, he has struggled to return to form, winning just two of his last 14 tournaments.
“Twentyseven is an age when your__body__starts__talking__back__to__you.” tennis great John McEnroe told the New York Times.
Pancho Sefura, another tennis great, noted that Federer is also facing a maturing crop of young talents. “There are too many great players now,” he said, naming Britain's Andy Murray, 21, and Latvia's Ernests Gulbis, 20.
US magazine Sports illustrated tennis columnist Jon Wertheim suggested that part of Federer's problem could be his insistence on using a small racket. He says that the smaller head demands ball control. But we see time and again that racket makers try to get players to use a certain stickone they would like to market to consumers and it has a negative effect on the professional game.
Sports psychologist Jim Loehr told the Times that Federer is probably feeling “a sense of doubt” after being considered as undefeated for so long. If Federer is to recover his state of being undefeated, Loehr said he must overcome his doubt. “Federer doesn't need fame and money. But he has to get better. He has to go to a whole new level. That's the only way he stays in the game,” he said. As for beginning his first Grand Slam (大满贯) in ages as the NO. 2 seed
Federer said it might be for the best. “Five years almost, I was expected to win every tournament I entered,” he said, “so maybe Rafael Nadal now feels what I had to feel for a very long time. It will be interesting to see how he handles it.” 36. What does the underlined sentence “your body starts talking back to you” in Para. 4 mean?
A. Your body often argues with you.
B. You can do whatever you want.
C. Your strength is beginning to decline.
D. You are more easily to have terrible diseases. 答案与解析:C 细节理解题。可以推测出,身体状况、力量已经不如以前,“身体已经告诉自己”了。
37. From the passage, we know the main reason why Federer's
throne was taken away is that
________.
A. he is becoming older and older
B. he insisted on using a small racket
C. he is facing a maturing crop of young talents
D. he had an illness that stole his strength 答案与解析:D 细节理解题。原句为第三段第三句。 1. After being seated at his table, Mr Bean takes out a card...在餐桌就座后,憨豆先生拿出一张卡片…… after是个介词,后面要用动词的现在分词形式,要注意seat的用法:seat作及物动词时意为“使就座;容纳”。Be seated, please表示“请坐”,此处用被动语态,为习惯表达。 The auditorium seats 3,000 people. 这个礼堂可坐三千人。 Ladies and gentlemen, please be seated. 女士们,先生们,请就座。 2. He then looks from the menu to the money with concern until he finds one thing that makes him smile.然后专注地边看菜单边看自己的钱,直到找到一样使他微笑的东西。 until在句中引导时间状语从句。 [解题警示] ①until作连词,引导时间状语从句,表示动作、状态的继续,直到另一动作或状态出现为止。在否定句中,与瞬间性动词连用,译为“直到……才”,可与before引导的从句进行句型转换。 ②until作介词,表示动作或状态一直到……(时间)为止,以表示时间的名词为宾语。在肯定句中与表示延续性动作的动词连用。在否定句中,相当于before,表示“直到……才……”,与表示瞬间性(终止性)动作的动词连用。 ③当强调否定句中until引导的时间状语或时间状语从句时,其强调形式为:It is/was not until...that...。 ④另外当not与until的时间状语或从句放在句首时,主句要部分倒装。 It was not until the professor came that we began the experiment. 在教授到来之后,我们才开始实验。
[预测题] It is difficult for us to learn a lesson in life ________ we've actually had that lesson. A. until
