and watched enviously the other boys on the block play baseball.I was never asked to take part even when one team had a member missing—not out of special cruelty,but because they took it for granted I would be no good at it.They were right,of course.‎ I would never forget the wonderful evening when something changed.The baseball ended about eight or eight thirty when it grew dark.Then it was the custom of the boys to retire to a little stoop(门廊)that stuck out from the candy store on the corner and that somehow had become theirs.No grownup ever sat there or attempted to.There the boys would sit,mostly talking about the games played during the day and of the game to be played tomorrow.Then long silences would fall and the boys would wander off one by one.It was just after one of those long silences that my life as an outsider changed.I can no longer remember which boy it was that summer evening who broke the silence with a question;but whoever he was,I nod to him gratefully now.“What’s in those books you’re always reading?”he asked casually.“Stories,”I answered.“What kind?”asked somebody else without much interest.‎ Nor do I know what drove me to behave as I did,for usually I just sat there in silence,glad enough to be allowed to remain among them;but instead of answering his question,I told them for two hours the story I was reading at the moment.The book was Sister Carrie.They listened bug-eyed and breathless.I must have told it well,but I think there was another and deeper reason that made them so keen an audience.Listening to a tale being told in the dark is one of the most ancient of man’s entertainments,but I was offering them as well,without being aware of doing it,a new and exciting experience.‎ The books they themselves read were the Rover Boys or Tom Swift or G.A.Henty.I had read them too,but at thirteen I had long since left them behind.Since I was much alone I had become an enthusiastic reader and I had gone through the books-for-boys-series.In those days there was no reading material between children’s and grownups’ books,or I could find none.I had gone right from Tom Swift and His Flying Machine to Theodore Dreiser and Sister Carrie.Dreiser had hit my young mind,and they listened to me tell the story with some of the wonder that I had had in reading it.‎ The next night and many nights thereafter,a kind of unspoken ritual(仪式)took place.As it grew dark,I would take my place in the center of the stoop and begin the evening’s tale.Some nights,in order to taste my victory more completely,I cheated.I would stop at the most exciting part of a story by Jack London or Bret Harte,and without warning tell them that that was as far as I had gone in the book and it would have to be continued the following evening.It was not true,of course;but I had to make certain of my new-found power and position.I enjoyed the long summer evenings until school began in the fall.Other words of mine have been listened to by larger and more fashionable audiences,but for that tough and athletic one that sat close on the stoop outside the candy store,I have an unreasoning love that will last forever.‎ ‎1.Watching the boys playing baseball,the writer must have felt 　　　. ‎ A.bitter and lonely B.special and different C.pleased and excited D.disturbed and annoyed ‎2.The writer feels grateful even now to the boy who asked the question because the boy　　　. ‎ A.invited him to join in their game B.liked the book that he was reading C.broke the long silence of that summer evening D.offered him an opportunity that

boys had few entertainments after dark D.the boys didn’t read books by themselves ‎4.The boys were attracted to Sister Carrie because　　　. ‎ A.it was written by Theodore Dreiser B.it was specifically targeted at boys C.it gave them a deeper feeling of pleasure D.it talked about the wonders of the world ‎5.Sometimes the writer stopped at the most exciting part of a story to　　　. ‎ A.play a mean trick on the boys B.experience ‎ more joy of achievement C.add his own imagination to the story D.help the boys understand the story better ‎6.What is the message conveyed in the story?‎ A.One can find his position in life in his own way.‎ B.Friendship is built upon respect for each other.‎ C.Reading is more important than playing games.‎ D.Adult habits are developed from childhood.‎ Part

to...可知在校学生可以参加该项活动,所以答案为A项。文章没有提到剑桥当地人可以参加,没有提及那些CSF获胜者可以参加,也没有提及MIT的艺术家们可以参加,所以要排除B、C、D三项。‎ ‎2.D　细节理解题。根据第三段中的第一句话可知在4月21号要举办一个特殊的典礼,由此可知颁奖典礼是在4月21号举行,所以答案为D项。‎ ‎3.C　推理判断题。本文向读者介绍了一个活动项目,鼓励学生们去参加。这显然是一则通告或通知,答案为C项。A项:一则展览指南;B项:一则艺术展评论;D项:一个官方报道。这三项明显与本文的内容不符。‎ Passage 2‎ ‎[高级语块]　‎ ‎1.take...for granted想当然地认为 ‎2.wander off走神 ‎3.go through 通读 ‎[高级句式]　‎ ‎1.It

‎[语篇解读]　这是一篇记叙文,题材为人物故事类。作者讲述了自己在某个夏天的暑假,原本只是那群玩棒球男生的旁观者,却因为一次偶然的邀请,整个夏天的晚上都在给他们讲他看过的书中的故事,而且这一经历改变了作者的一生。‎ ‎1.A　推理判断题。由文章第一段内容,即那些孩子从不邀请他一起玩,因为他们认为他球技不行,而作者也苦涩地承认了这一点,故A为正确答案。‎ ‎2.D　细节理解题。由文章第二段中的“It was just after one of those long silences that my life as an outsider changed.”和“but whoever he was,I nod ‎ to him gratefully now”以及文章主旨,可以看出D为正确答案。‎ ‎3.B　细节理解题。由第三段最后一句,即“在天黑时听别人讲故事,是人类最古老的娱乐方式之一,但是我现在正在给这些男孩们做同样的事情,自己没有意识到,但是我确实在给他们提供一种全新的、激动的体验”,可以推出B选项即“听故事为时代久远的做法”为正确选项。‎ ‎4.C　细节理解题。文章第四段最后一句提及“他们带着惊叹听我讲故事,就如同我在读这个故事时那种惊叹一样”,可以推出C为正确选项。‎ ‎5.B　推理判断题。文章最后一段其中有提及...in order to taste my victory more completely,I cheated.I would stop...,可以推出B为正确选项。‎ ‎6.A　主旨大意题。结合整篇文章尤其是最后一段内容,可以看出这篇文章的主要内容就是讲述自己通过一件偶然的事情,用一种特殊方式吸引了那些孩子。所以A为正确选项。‎ Part

the park to appreciate the beautiful lanterns,the highlight of this festival.Two huge dragon lanterns especially amazed us and we couldn’t help flashing our cameras.Walking in the park and admiring the beautiful moon,we felt we were so lucky to have each other as a family and valued the time we spent together. ‎ What a fantastic Lantern Festival!‎ 单选模拟仿真练 ‎1—5 BCABD　6—10 ACBCD　11—15 ADDBC
