‎2018届二轮复习阅读理解记叙文典题10篇训练（六）‎ ‎【一】‎ Jimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago. He has a good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.‎ One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 a.m. and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please, I insist.” Jimmy agreed. ‎ Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed looks on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” He thought to himself. ‎ Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company. ‎ ‎“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into this office. I just know you’d be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job. ‎ ‎56. Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?‎ A. He was out of work. B. He was bored with his job. C. He wanted a higher position. D. he hoped to find a better boss. ‎ ‎57. What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?‎ A. A friend’s car had a flat tyre. B. A wild man was pushing a car. ‎ C. A terrible car accident happened. D. An old man’s car broke down. ‎ ‎58. Why did the old man offer Jimmy a ride? A. He was also to be interviewed. B. He needed a traveling companion. C. He always helped people in need. D. He was thankful to Jimmy .‎ ‎59. How did Jimmy feel on hearing the interviewer’s question? A. He was sorry for the other applicants. B. There was no hope for him to get the job. C. He regretted helping the old man. D. The interviewer was very rude. ‎ ‎60. What can we learn from Jimmy’s experience? A. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. B. A friend in need is a friend indeed. C. Good is rewarded with good. D. Two heads are better than one. ‎ ‎【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要描述了已失业数月的汽车技工Jimmy，在一次去面试的途中帮助一位老者修好了汽车，在面试时意外发现老者竟是该公司的总经理。Jimmy 的热心肠得到总经理的赏识，因此使他顺利地得到了一份工作。‎ 段落 关键词、句 大意推测 第一部分（Para. 1）‎ an automotive mechanic, lost his job ； ‎ a good heart；feared applying for a new job.‎ Jimmy 已失业数月的汽车技工，心肠好，对申请新工作有畏惧感。‎ 第二部分（Para. 2）‎ immediately went up to lend him a hand. there was no need to pay him; helped someone in need ‎ 去面试途中，Jimmy无偿帮助老者修车。‎ 第三部分 ‎（part 3-5）‎ Jimmy’s heart sank, the General Manager of the company.‎ I was pretty sure I made the right decision, be a trustworthy worker, landed himself a new job.‎ 吉米认为自己无法通过面试时，发现原来那个老人是公司的总经理.。总经理早已做出决定要雇佣Jimmy。‎ Jimmy因此为自己谋得一份新的工作。‎ ‎【解析】‎ ‎56．A。细节理解题。难度：易。由第一段首句可知;“Jimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago.” 与选项A中“out of work”同义，故选A。‎ 解题思路：记叙文首段首句往往会介绍时间、地点和人物。本文中首句含有but引导的转折关系并列句，这就是命题人设置的题眼。‎ ‎57. D。细节理解题。难度：易。根据题干“on the way to the interview”，定位信息在第二段第三句：“he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car.”可知，老人的车出问题了， 与选项D同义，故选D。‎ ‎58. C. 细节判断题。细节难度：中等。根据题干“offer Jimmy a ride”，定位该题信息在第二段倒数最后三句：“Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please, I insist.” Jimmy 无偿帮助需要帮助的人，他要赶着去参加一个面试。老人说：我可以搭载你去面试的办公室。这是我最起码做的事。老人用实际行动表达对Jimmy 的感谢。‎ ‎59. B. 推理判断题。根据题干“the interviewer’s question”，定位到第三段，由大意可知：因为帮人修车Jimmy的衣服上沾了油脂，穿这样的衣服去面试难免不适合。尤其是在第三段最后三句; Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” 可知: Jimmy听到面试考官的话，更加不自信，认为这次的工作又无望了。符合选项B内容，故选B。‎ ‎60. C.细节理解题。难度：中等。通读全文，可知Jimmy 无偿帮助他人的精神倍受身为总经理的老者喜欢，这一品德使Jimmy顺利得到工作。A. 有志者事竟成。B. 患难见真情。C. 善有善报。D.三个臭皮匠顶个诸葛亮。有中文含义判断，选C。‎ ‎【难句学习】‎ While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car.‎ 翻译：他要去那个办公室接受面试，在等车前往时，他看见一个上了年纪的男人粗暴地狂踢他自己的汽车的轮胎。‎ 分析： 本句主干为he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. while 引导了一个非谓语动词，作时间状语。where he was supposed to be interviewed 为定语从句，修饰the office。‎ ‎2．…, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into this office. ‎ 翻译：在你还没踏进这间办公室之前我就决定要雇佣你，我确信我的这个决定是正确的。‎ 分析：句型be sure that…意为：确信…。 before 引导一个时间状语从句。‎ ‎【二】‎ In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney,‎ ‎ Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车). I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured （使…放心）me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home. Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water. After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.” I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon. 50. The author had to hitch a ride one day in 1978 because ______.‎ A. her work delayed her trip to Sydney B. she was going home for her holidays C. the town was far away from Sydney D. she missed the only train back home ‎51. Which of the following did Gordon do according to Paragraph 2?‎ A. He helped the girl find a ride. B. He gave the girl a ride back home.‎ C. He bought sandwiches for the girl. D.

The reason why the author offered a lift to the elderly man was that ______.‎ A. she realized he was Gordon B. she had known him for decades C. she was going to the nearby town D. she wanted to repay the favour she once got ‎53. What does the author want to tell the readers through the story? A. Giving sometimes produces nice results.‎ B. Those who give rides will be rapid. C. Good manners bring about happiness. D. People should offer free rides to others.‎ ‎【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，题材是社会生活。作者讲述了25年前自己错过了唯一的一趟回家的火车，她想搭便车回家但没有人为她停车。最后一位名叫Gordon的人把自己请到家中吃了午饭并帮助自己找到了回家的便车。25年后的一天搭自己便车的老人竟然是那位名叫Gordon的人。‎ 段落 关键词、句 大意推测 第一部分（Para. 1）‎ ‎1978；a small town；a nurse；five days off；the only one train； left；hitch a ride ‎1978年我在悉尼的一个小城镇当护士，我盼望得到5天的假期，结果，我错过了唯一的一趟火车。‎ 第二部分（Para. 2）‎ No one stopped for me; Gordon; to his house for lunch; offered to help me find a lift；‎ 没有人为我停车，一位名叫Gordon的人请我到家中吃午饭并主动帮助我找到了便车。‎ 第三部分（Para. 3）‎ Twenty-five years later; an elderly man; trying to hitch a ride; pulled over and picked him up ‎25年后，我看到一位老人想搭便车，我靠边停车，让他上车。‎ 第四部分（Para. 4）‎ A few moments of small talk；haven’t changed a bit；‎ 和那位老人简短谈了一会儿，他说我一点也没变。‎ 第五部分（Para. 5）‎ He was the man who had given me lunch and help me find a lift；Gordon 最后，他告诉我他就是让我吃午饭并帮我找便车的Gordon。‎ ‎【解析】‎ ‎50. D。细节理解题。难度：易。根据文章第一段中的the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride（唯一的一趟回家的火车已经离开，所以我想搭便车回家。）可知D正确。‎ ‎51. A。细节理解题。难度：易。根据文章第二段中he also offered to help me find a lift home（他还主动帮助我找到回家的便车）可知C正确。‎ ‎52. D。细节理解题。难度：易。根据文章第三段中的I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favor I’d been given decades earlier可知，我认为这是回报几十年前给我帮助的人的又一次机会。故C正确。‎ ‎53. A。作者的写作意图题。难度：中等。综合分析全文内容，25年前我得到Gordon的帮助，25年后Gordon又偶然地得到我的帮助。所以作者想通过这个故事，告诉我们：给予有时会产生好的结果。故选A项。‎ D About 30 years ago, I left Cuba for the United States with my son. After getting settled finally in Brunswick, New Jersey, I enrolled(注册) my son in kindergarten. Several weeks later, my son’s teacher asked me to meet him at his office.‎ In the teacher’s office, and exchange of greetings was followed by his questions: “Is your son mentally retarded(弱智的)？Does he suffer from any kind of mental disability?”‎ Was he talking about my wonderful Scola? NO, no, it can’t be. What a helpless, lonely moment! I told him that Scola was a quiet, sweet little boy, instead. I asked him why he was asking me all these questions.‎ My son could not follow the teacher’s directions, he told me, and thus, Scola was disrupting the class. Didn’t he know my son did not speak English yet?‎ He was angry; “Why hasn’t your son been taught to speak English? Don’t you speak English at home?”‎ No, I didn’t speak English at home, I replied. I was sure my son would learn English in a couple of months, and I didn't want him to forget his native language. Well, wrong answer! What kind of person would not speak in English to her son at home and at all time? “Are you one of those people who come to this country to save dollars and send them back to their country, never wanting to be a part of this society?”‎ Needless to say, I tried to tell him I was not one of “those people.” Then he told me the meeting was over, and I left.‎ As I had expected, my son learned to speak English fluently before the school year was over. He went on to graduate from college and got a job, earning close to six figures. He travels widely and leads a well-adjusted, contented life. And he has benefited from being bilingual(双语的)。‎ Speaking more than one language allows people to communicate with others; it teaches people about other cultures and other places—something very basic and obviously lacking in the “educator” I met in New Jersey.‎ ‎57. The teacher asked the author to his office__________.‎ A. to discuss Scola’s in-class performance B. to get Scola enrolled in kindergarten C. to find a language partner for Scola D. to work out a study plan for Scola ‎58. What does the underlined word “disrupting” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?‎ A. Breaking B. Following C. Attending D. Disturbing ‎ ‎59. The author’s attitude towards being bilingual may best be described as__________.‎ A. critical B. casual C. positive D. passive ‎ ‎60. This text is likely to be selected from a book of _________.‎ A. medicine B. education C. geography D. history ‎【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，题材是学校教育。作者通过讲述我与儿子的老师在办公室的谈话的故事，证明我让儿子保留母语的想法是正确的。最后，儿子得益于他的双语技能找到了高薪的工作。‎ 段落 关键词、句 大意推测 第一部分 ‎（Para. 1）‎ About 30 years ago; settled finally in Brunswick; ‎ in kindergarten; at his office 故事开端（时间、地点、人物）故事背景：30年前，我在美国定居，儿子上了幼儿园。一天，老师要我去办公室见他。‎ 第二部分 ‎（Para. 2-7）‎ mentally retarded (弱智的）; mental disability; a quiet, sweet little boy; disrupting; native language；‎ 叙述故事的过程:我来到老师的办公室，老师问了一系列问题，认为儿子可能有智障。我认为儿子是恬静的小男孩。儿子不会讲英语，在课堂上捣乱。是因为我不想让他忘记母语。‎ 第三部分 ‎（Para. 8-9）‎ benefited from being bilingual; more than one language; communicate with others; different person; teaches people about other cultures and other places 从故事得到的启示: 结果证明我的想法是正确的。儿子学会了英语并从大学毕业，找到了高薪的工作。这都得益于他的双语技能。多会一门外语能更好地与人交流。‎ ‎【解析】‎ ‎57. A。推理判断题。难度：中等。根据文章第二段中的My son could not follow the teacher’s directions, he told me, and thus, Scola was disrupting the class可知：儿子不听老师的话，还扰乱课堂。这些都是儿子在课上的表现。故选A。‎ 干扰项排除：B项说作者给儿子注册上幼儿园，这不是在老师办公室谈的；C项、D项文章内容没有提到。‎ ‎58.D。猜测词义题。难度：中等。根据文章第四段中的My son could not follow the teacher’s directions, he told me, and thus, Scola was disrupting the class可知，and前后并列关系，内容相近。所以，根据前文的“他不听老师的指导”可以推知disrupt意为：扰乱。故D正确。‎ ‎59. C。考查作者态度题。难度：中等。根据文章最后一段的Speaking more than one language allows people to communicate with others; it teaches people about other cultures and other places 可以推知作者认为：不止讲一种语言让人们和（更多的）人进行交流，这教会人们了解其他的地方和文化，这是一些最基本的东西。儿子就得益于双语技能。由此可知作者持积极的态度。故C正确。A批判的；B漫不经心的；D消极的。它们都不合文意。[来源:学科网]‎ ‎60. B。推理判断题。难度：易。根据文章的语篇解读可知，文章通篇讲述的是有关教育的话题。所以，本文应该是从有关教育的书中节选的。故B正确。‎ ‎【难句学习】‎ ‎1. Are you one of those people who come to this country to save dollars and send them back to their country, never wanting to be a part of this society?‎ 翻译：你是那些来这个国家攒钱并把它们寄回本国，从来不想成为这个社会的一员的人之一吗？‎ 分析：句中who引导定语从句，never wanting to be a part of this society是现在分词短语作状语。‎ ‎2. Speaking more than one language allows people to communicate with others; it teaches people about other cultures and other places----something very basic and obviously lacking in the “educator” I met in New Jersey.‎ 翻译：不止讲一种语言让人们和（更多的）人进行交流，这教会人们了解其他的地方和文化，这是一些最基本的东西。可是，很显然，我在新泽西遇到的那个老师就缺乏这种意识。‎ 分析：句中Speaking more than one language allows people to communicate with others作原因状语，something very basic and obviously lacking in the “educator” I met in New Jersey是同位语，I met in New Jersey是定语从句。‎ ‎【三】‎ On a sunny day last August, Tim heard some shouting. Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.‎ Two 2-year-old boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to search for a football. Once they’d rowed beyond the calm waters, a bleach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into open water. The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore. But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control.‎ Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves.‎ ‎“Everything went quiet in my head,” Tim recalls(回忆). “I was trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in a straight line.”‎ Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water. Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head to judge his progress. “At one point, I considered turning back,” he says. “I wondered if I was putting my life at risk.” After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close to yell to the boys, “Take down the umbrella!”‎ Christian made much effort to take down the umbrella. Then Tim was able to catch up and climb aboard the boat. He took over rowing, but the waves were almost too strong for him.‎ ‎“Let’s aim for the pier(码头),” Jack said. Tim turned the boat toward it. Soon afterward, waves crashed over the boat, and it began to sink. “Can you guys swim?” he cried. “A little bit,” the boys said.‎ Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer and faster for him to pull the boys toward the pier. Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs. Tim swam toward land as water washed over the boys’ faces.‎ ‎“Are we almost there?” they asked again and again. “Yes,” Tim told them each time.‎ After 30 minutes, they reached the pier.‎ ‎35. Why did the two boys go to the sea?‎ A. To go boat rowing. B. To get back their football. ‎ C. To swim in the open water. D. To test the umbrella as a sail.‎ ‎36. What does “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A. The beach B. The water. C. The boat. D. The wind ‎37. Why did Tim raise his head regularly? ‎ A. To take in enough fresh air. B. To consider turning back or not.‎ C. To check his distance from the boys. D. To ask the boys to take down the umbrella.‎ ‎38. How did the two boys finally reach the pier?‎ A. They were dragged to the pier by Tim. ‎ B. They swam to the pier all by themselves.‎ C. They were washed to the pier by the waves. ‎ D. They were carried to the pier by Tim on his back.‎ ‎【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，题材是人物故事。作者描述了两个孩子划船出海捡球遇险，Tim勇敢地游泳去营救的故事。‎ 段落 关键词、句 大意推测 第一部分（Para. 1）‎ heard...shouting; being pulled out to sea;‎ 故事的发生：听到有人求救；注意到孩子被拖入大海 第二部分（Para. 2-3）‎ rowed beyond the calm water; caught the wind...into open water; panicked; out of control; be swallowed;‎ 故事的起因：孩子们划过了平静的水面，风把他们带到开阔水域，孩子们惊慌，船失控，不久会被吞没。‎ 第三部分（Para. 4-10）‎ swim to; take down the umbrella; catch up and climb aboard; took over rowing; crashed; sink; swam toward land; pull; reached the pier 故事的发展及结局：Tim游泳去营救，赶上并往回划，但海浪击毁船只，下沉，因此，他拖着孩子们游回码头。‎ ‎【解析】‎ ‎35. B。细节理解题。难度：较易。题干关键词为two boys go to the sea，定位第二段第一句。根据“to search a football”，可知B项正确。‎ ‎36. D。词汇猜测题。难度：较难。no match for“无法对抗；不敌”，定位原文中的it，阅读其上文可知，绑在船上的伞利用了风力将船带入开阔的水域，孩子们慌了，尽力往岸边划，但却抵不过它，船失控了。因此，it指的是“the wind”，因此，选D。‎ ‎37. C。细节理解题。难度：较易。根据关键词“raise his head”定位原文在第五段第二句 “... raise his head to judge his progress”，可知，Tim抬头是为了判断自己的进程。C项是对原文的同义转述，因此，选C。‎ ‎38. A。细节理解题。难度：中等。根据题干关键词“how...reach the pier”定位原文第八段“Tim decided... to pull the boys toward the pier”，可知，Tim 将两个孩子拖回了码头，A项中的“drag”与原文“pull”同义，因此，选A。‎ ‎【四】‎ Poet William Stafford once said that we are defined more by the detours (绕行路) in life than by the narrow road toward goals. I like this image. But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words.‎ For years we made the long drive from our home in Seattle to my parents' home in Boise in nine hours. We traveled the way most people do: the fastest, shortest, easiest road, especially when I was alone with four noisy, restless kids who hate confinement(限制) and have strong opinions about everything.‎ Road trips felt risky, so I would drive fast, stopping only when 1 had to. We would stick to the freeways and arrive tired.‎ But then Banner, our lamb was bent. He was reeled by h, mama days before our planned trip to Boise, I had two choices: leave Banner with my husband, or take him with me. My husband made the decision for me.‎ That is how I found myself on the road with four kids, a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through. We took the country roads out of necessity. We had to stop every hour, let Banner shake out his legs and feed him. The kids chased him and one another. They'd get back in the car breathless and energized, smelling fresh from the cold air.‎ We explored side roads, catching grasshopper in waist-high grass. Even if we simply looked out of the car window, at baby p.gs following their mother, or fish leaping out of the water, it was better than the best ride down the freeway. Here was life. And new horizons(见识).‎ We eventually arrived at my parents' doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of stories.‎ I grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique. On an empty section of road, everyone started quarreling. I stopped the car, ordered all kids out and told them to meet mc up ahead. I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence.‎ Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight. But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of a journey-and the best part of yourself. ‎ ‎46. Why did the author use to take freeways to her parents' home?‎ A. It was less tiring.‎ B. It would be fester and safer.‎ C. Her kids would feel less confined.‎ D. She felt better with other drivers nearby.‎ ‎47. The author stopped regularly on the country roads to ______.‎ A. relax in the fresh air B. take a deep breath C. take care of the lamb D. let the kids play with Banner ‎48. What does the author discover from the trip according to Paragraph 6?‎ A. Freeways are where beauty hides.‎ B. Getting close to nature adds to the joy of life.‎ C. Enjoying the beauty of nature benefits one's health.‎ D. One should follow side roads to watch wild animals.‎ ‎49. Why did the author ask the kids to get out of the car on their way back home?‎ A. To give herself some time to read.‎ B. To order some food for them C. To play a game with them D. To let them cool down.‎ ‎50. What could be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Charm of the Detour B. The Road to Bravery C. Creativity out of Necessity D. Road Trip and Country Life ‎【语篇解读】本文我一篇记叙文。记叙了作者为了方便照顾年幼的孩子驱车去父母家时而不得不改变多年行驶路线的经历，以及由此而产生的感悟。‎ 段落 关键词 大意推测 第一部分（Para. 1）‎ Poet William Stafford; the detours; by accident; discovered the deep meaning of his words 由诗人William Stafford的话引出故事：绕行路；偶然；发现诗人的话的深层意义 第二部分（Para. 2-3）‎ For years; the fastest, shortest, easiest road; drive fast; arrive tired 多年来一直未变的行车路线：多年来；最快最短由最容易的道路；开得很快；到时很累 第三部分（Para. 4-8）‎ made the decision for me; took the country roads out of necessity; stop every hour; breathless and energized; looked out of the car window; better than the best ride down the freeway; in sweet silence 行车路线的改变：替我做决定；出于需要走乡间公路；每个小时停一下；气喘吁吁且活跃；从车向外看；比高速路更好；静谧 第四部分 ‎（Para. 9）‎ Opened our eyes; uncover the best part of a journey 作者的感悟：‎ 开阔了视野；揭开旅途中最美好的一部分 ‎【解析】‎ ‎46.B。细节推理题。难度：较易。题干关键词为take freeways to her parents’ home定位于第二段。根据We travelled the way most people do: the fastest, shortest, easiest road（我们行驶在大多数人走的最快、最短、最便捷的公路上），可知作者选择这条路是因为它的快速与安全。‎ ‎47.C。细节理解题。难度：较易。找到本题的关键词regularly（有规律地），文中提到表达有规律的语句在第五段。根据We had to stop every hour, let Banner shake out his legs and feed him（我们不得不每个小时就停下来，让Banner伸伸腿并喂喂他），可知停下来是为了照顾这个可爱的小人Banner. ‎ ‎48.B。推理判读题。难度：中等。找到题眼Para.6.在Para.6.中，作者带着孩子们一路欣赏乡间美景：看到了齐腰深的草、车窗外紧随妈妈身后的猪宝宝、从水中跳出的鱼等。Here was life（这就是生活）。作者通过亲近大自然感到了生活的乐趣。‎ ‎49.D。细节判断题。难度：较易。找到题干中的关键词组ask the kids to get out of the car，定位在para.8.根据On an empty section of road, everyone started quarrelling, stopped the car, ordered all kids out（在一个空旷的区域，孩子们开始争吵，我于是停下车，让他们都下车），可以看出，“孩子们吵架”是停车的原因。因此选项D。（让他们冷静下来）为正确答案。‎ ‎【干扰项排除】最具潜力干扰项是选项A（为了给自己看书的时间），根据关键词我们知道这不是作者停车的原因与目的，只是让孩子们下车之后，带来的一个结果。选项B（给他们预定食物）与选项C（和他们一起游戏）均未在文中提及。‎ ‎50.A。主旨判断题。难度：较难。本文通过叙述从这些年来为了贪图便捷快速走高速路，到因为照顾年幼的孩子而不得选择乡间公路的过程中，欣赏了大自然的美景，发现了绕行路的魅力。‎ ‎【解题思路】主旨判断题的方法是找高频词。本文在第一段通过诗人的话就引出detour，文中多次都提及，在文章的最后一段的末句还是提及到了它。因此，高频词出现的选项就是正确选项。‎ ‎【难句学习】‎ ‎1. But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words 翻译：很偶然我发现了他的这些话的深层含义。‎ 分析：这是强调句型结构：it is/was……that/who……当被强调部分不是表“人”的词或短语时，只能用that。句子的主干是I discovered the deep meaning of his words。‎ ‎2. But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of a journey---and the best part of yourself.‎ 翻译：但是和Banner一起的旅途开阔了我们对于这个对任何人来说四处瞎逛都很危险的世界的视角，让我意识到绕行路可能会揭开旅途中最美好的那部分，即你自己最美好的那部分。‎ 分析：句子的主干是that trip做主语；opened和made一起做并列谓语。其中adventurous enough to wander around 形容词短语做world的后置定语； that引导的从句做动词realize的宾语从句。‎ ‎【五】‎ Doctors are known to be terrible pilots. They don't listen because they already know it all. I was lucky: I became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical school. I didn't realize then, but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon. I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather. I learned about crew resource management (机组资源管理), or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result, regardless of positions.‎ I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that, an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doctor was flying; I was safety pilot. He was so busy because of the bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架) down. He was a better pilot - and my boss - so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in danger. I put aside my uneasiness and said, "We need to put the landing gear down now!" That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM, and I've used it in the operating room ever since.‎ CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor doesn't overreact, which might prevent fellow ‎ doctors from voicing opinions again.

B。细节理解题。难度：中等。根据文章第一段中Doctor are known to be terrible pilots. They don't listen because they already know it all.（众所周知，医生是糟糕的飞行员。他们听不进建议因为他们已经全都知道了。）可知他们听不进别人的意见。这和选项B一致。其他选项文章内容没有提到过。‎ ‎37. A。细节理解题。难度：中等。根据文章第二段中的But I had to（speak up）: Our lives were in danger. I put aside my uneasiness and said, "We need to put the landing gear down now!" That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM（我们的生命处于危险之中，危机时刻我大声地说：“我们必须按下起降架” 这是我运用CRM的第一堂课。）可知A正确。‎ ‎38. D。猜测短语含义题。难度：较难。根据文章第三段中的So when I'm in the operating room, I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes they're not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them, someday someone will keep me from ”landing gear up”.可以推知：当我在手术室时，我向别人征求意见和寻求帮助。有时他们不愿大声说话。但我希望如果我不断地鼓励他们，有朝一日，有人就能阻止我犯以生命为代价的错误（landing gear down挽救了飞机和我们的命；landing gear up如果不按下起降架就会飞机失事牺牲生命）。故选D。‎ ‎39. B。推测文章的标题。难度：中等。根据文章的整体内容上看，作者采用倒叙的方法。第一段叙述故事的结果，从而引出下文的故事。而第一段中的becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon 是文章的中心句，这句涵盖了整个文章内容，而选项B和中心句一致。所以B正确。‎ ‎【难句学习】‎ ‎1. It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor doesn't overreact, which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again.‎ 翻译：机组资源管理理念进一步要求，当（听到）对方不同的意见的时候，医生不有过激的反应。这可能阻止同行医生再次提出意见。‎ 分析：句中that后面是一个宾语从句，宾语从句中又包含一个which引导的非限制性定语从句，which代替前面整个句子的内容。‎ ‎2. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them, someday someone will keep me from ”landing gear up”.‎ 翻译：但我希望如果我不断地鼓励他们，有朝一日，有人就能阻止我犯以生命为代价的错误。‎ 分析：句中that引导一个宾语从句，宾语从句中又含有一个if引导的条件状语从句。‎ ‎【六】‎ Some people will do just about anything to save money.

My characteristic optimism was alive only when I reminded myself that I would be doing what I had wanted to do since I was fourteen -- teaching English.‎ School started, but I felt more and more as if I were in a foreign country. Was this rural area really New Jersey? My students have a week off when hunting season began. I was told they were also frequently absent in late October to help their fathers make hay on the farms. I was a young woman from New York City, who thought that “Make hay while the sun shines” just meant to have a good time.‎ But, still, I was teaching English. I worked hard, taking lime off only to eat and sleep. And then there was my sixth-grade class -- seventeen boys and five girls who were only six yean younger than me. I had a problem long before I knew it. I was struggling in my work as a young idealistic teacher. I wanted to make literature come alive and lo promote a love of the written word. The students wanted to throw spitballs and whisper dirty words in the back of the room.‎ In college I had been taught that a successful educator should ignore bad behavior. So I did, confident that, as the textbook had said, the bad behavior would disappear as I gave ray students positive attention. It sounds reasonable, but the text evidently ignored the fact that humans, particularly teenagers, rarely seem reasonable. By the time ray boss, who was also ray taskmaster known to be the strictest, most demanding, most quick to fire inexperienced teachers, came into the classroom to observe me, the students exhibited very little good behavior to praise.‎ My boss sat in the back of the room. The boys in the class were making animal noises, hitting each other while the girls filed their nails or read magazines. I just pretended it all wasn’t happening, and went on lecturing and tried to ask some inspiring questions. My boss, sitting in the back of the room, seemed to be growing bigger and bigger. After twenty minutes he left, silently. Visions of unemployment marched before my eyes.‎ I felt mildly victorious that I got through the rest of class without crying, but at my next free period I had to face him. I wondered if he would let me finish out the day. I walked to his office, took a deep breath, and opened the door.‎ He was sitting in his chair, and he looked at me long and hard. I said nothing. All I could think of was that I was not an English teacher; I had been lying to myself, pretending that everything was ‎ fine.‎ When he spoke, he said simply, without accusation, “You had nothing to say to them.”‎ ‎“You had nothing to say to them," he repeated. “No wonder they’re bored. Why not get to the meal of the literature and stop talking about symbolism. Talk with them, not at them. And more important, why do you ignore their bad behavior?” We talked. He named ray problems and offered solutions. We role-played. He was the bad student, and I was the forceful, yet, warm, teacher.‎ As the year progressed, we spent many hours discussing literature and ideas about human beings and their motivations. He helped me identify my weaknesses and my strengths. In short, he made a teacher of me by teaching me the reality of Emerson's words: “The secret to education lies in respecting the pupil.”‎ Fifteen years later I still drive that same winding road to the same school. Thanks to the help I received that difficult first year, the school is my home now.‎ ‎55. It can be inferred from the story that in 1974 ______.‎ A. the writer became an optimistic person B. the writer was very happy about her new job C. it was rather difficult to get a job in the USA D. it was easy to get a teaching job in New Jersey ‎56. According to the passage, which of the following is most probably the writer’s problem as a new teacher?‎ A. She had blind trust in what she learnt at college.‎ B. She didn’t ask experienced teachers for advice.‎ C. She took too much time off to eat and sleep.‎ D. She didn’t like teaching English literature.‎ ‎57. What is the writer’s biggest worry after her taskmaster's observation of her class?‎ A. She might lose her teaching job.‎ B. She might lose her students’ respect.‎ C. She couldn’t teach the same class any more.‎ D. She couldn’t ignore her students’ bad behavior any more.‎ ‎58. Which of the following gives the writer a sense of mild victory?‎ A. Her talk about symbolism sounded convincing.‎ B. Her students behaved a little better than usual.‎ C. She managed to finish the class without crying.‎ D. She was invited for a talk by her boss after class.‎ ‎59. The students behaved badly in the writer's classes because ______.‎ A. they were eager to embarrass her B. she didn't really understand them C. they didn't regard her as a good teacher D. she didn’t have a good command of English ‎60. The taskmaster’s attitude towards the writer after his observation of her class can be best described as ______.‎ A. cruel but encouraging B. fierce but forgiving C. sincere and supportive D. angry and aggressive D ‎【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，题材是作者从教第一年的经历。文章描述的是作者工作第一年到偏远山区的一所学校执教的经历，当作者个人的执教理念和现实脱节时得到了上司的指点，对自己以后文学的教学起到了很大的影响。‎ 段落 关键词、句 大意推测 第一部分 ‎（Para. 1-2）‎ In 1974；a teaching job；distant wild aera；optimism; teaching English; in a foreign country; were also frequently absent 故事缘由：通过层层选拔，我得到了一份偏远地区的教学工作，具体的教学状况令我有些迷茫。‎ 第二部分 ‎（Para. 3-5）‎ had a problem; idealistic teacher; make literature come alive; ignore bad behavior; positive attention; my boss; pretended; unemployment 问题的暴露：我以大学的经验实施我的理想教学，忽视孩子们的不良举动，被老板发现炒鱿鱼。‎ 第三部分 ‎（Para. 6-9）‎ Face him；finish out；looked at me long and hard；without accusation；no wonder；why not；bad behavior 与老板的对话：我教学中的弊端在与老板的对话中得以发现，使我恍然大悟。‎ 第三部分 ‎（Para. 10-11）‎ The year progressed；spent many hours；helped me identify； in short；fifteen years later；thanks to 对我教学的影响：市场的介入给我们的生活带来的巨大变化。‎ ‎【解析】‎ ‎55A。推理判断题。难度：中等。题干关键词为in 1974，定位第一段。根据第一段第一句的描述可知，作者是经过投了50份简历，经历了四次面试才得到这份工作的，由此可知当时的美国就业是相当困难的。‎ ‎56. C。细节理解题。难度：中等。题干关键词为the writer’s problem as a new teacher，定位于第三第四段。第三段后半部分说我有个问题很久没意识到，我的教学理念和教学实际脱节，第四段又说大学里受到的教育对我影响很大，可知对大学知识的盲目自信正是她的问题所在，A项正确。 B项的内容在文中没有涉及，没有提到其他老师的存在，可排除；C项描述与第三段第一句I worked hard，taking time off only to eat and sleep相矛盾；D项说作者不喜欢文学教学也与文中说作者对工作的执着和热心相背。‎ A。细节理解题。难度：中等。题干关键词为biggest worry，定位于第五段和第六段。第五段最后两句说负责人只听了20分钟就悄悄地离开了，我似乎看到了自己被解雇的情形以及下一段第二句话我不知道他是否让我上完那天的课，由此可知作者怕丢掉来之不易的工作。‎ C。细节理解题。难度：中等。题干关键词为a sense of wild victory，定位于第六段。第一句I felt wildly victorious that I got through the rest of the class without crying, 可知作者能坚持平静地上完剩下的课程就已经是使她感到不容易的事情了。所以答案为C。‎ B。推理判断题。难度：中等。题干关键词为the students behaved badly，定位于全篇文章。尤其从第四段中的描述可知，作者就是按照教科书中传授的理论教育学生，但效果甚微，而且教科书忽略了一个事实就是人尤其是青少年很少是理智的，可知学生在她的课堂上表现不佳的原因就是她并不真正了解学生。‎ C。推理判断题。难度：中等。题干关键词为the taskmaster’s attitude towards the writer，定位于第八第九段，他没有指责我，而是向我提出了许多建议并交换角色实地体验（他当坏学生我当老师）等内容都体现出负责人的态度是真诚的和支持的。 ‎ ‎【难句学习】‎ ‎1. In 1974, after filling out fifty applications, going through four interviews, and winning one offer, I took what I could get--a teaching job at what I considered a distant wild area: western New Jersey.‎ 翻译：1974年，在我填写了50份申请表格，参加了四次工作面试，得到了一份邀请函之后，我终于获得了一份工作——一份在新泽西州西部的一个遥远的萧山区的教学工作。‎ 分析：本句是一个主从复合句。其主干是I took what I could get。In 1974, after filling out fifty applications, going through four interviews, and winning one offer, 都是属于介词短语做时间状语的用法，主句中包含一个what引导的宾语从句做动词took的宾语；a teaching job是what i could get的同位语，后面还有一个介词短语at what I considered a distant wild area: western New Jersey.作定语修饰a teaching job。‎ ‎2. It sounds reasonable, but the text evidently ignored the fact that humans, particularly teenagers, rarely seemed reasonable.‎ 翻译：这听起来是合理的，但是教科书明显地忽略了一个事实：人类，尤其是青少年很少显得那么理智。‎ 分析：本句是一个主从复合句。But前面是一个简单句，后面句中含有一个名词性从句，即that引导的同位语从句，其中particularly teenagers又是同位语从句中主语humans的同位语。‎ ‎3. All I could think of was that I was not an English teacher; I had been lying to myself,pretending that everything was fine.‎ 翻译：我所能想到的全部就是我不是一个英语老师；我一直在对自己撒谎，假装事情一切都正常。‎ 分析：本句是由分号连接的两个主从复合句。第一个句子主语是all，后面包含了一个that引导的定语从句I could think of，先行词为all时关系词只能选择that，又因为that在从句中做介词of的宾语，所以可以省略，而was后面还有一个that引导的名词性从句即表语从句；后面的句子中只有一个that引导的宾语从句，做动词pretend的宾语。‎ ‎【八】‎ The morning had been a disaster.

D。推理判断题。难度：中等。题干关键词为that morning，定位第一段。根据The morning had been a disaster…Her words still hurt.（那天早上是一场灾难。我牙疼而且一直与朋友争吵。她的话仍然伤人。）可知作者很心烦苦恼。D. upset“心烦的”符合题意，故选D。cheerful快乐的；nervous紧张的；satisfied感到满意的。考生易选B项，其依据是第四段The assistant noticed my nervousness…来判断，而这是在lunchtime作者看牙医时的感觉。考生忽视了题干的关键词that morning。‎ ‎57. A。细节理解题。难度：较易。根据题干关键词begin to doubt定位第三段…What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice?（什么样的牙医急于在如此短的 时间治疗一个人？）。Ａ项“牙医同意在如此短的时间为她治疗”正是此句的同义转述，符 合题意，故选A。考生易选C“牙医办公室的环境”，其依据是第四段In the dentist’s ‎ office,…worried.（医生办公室光秃秃的墙使作者更担心）。这是作者后来的怀疑而不是“开始时的怀疑”。考生忽视题干的关键词begin。‎ ‎58.Ｂ。细节理解题。难度：较易。根据题干关键词suddenly smile定位第九段。Ｃ项“因为她看到天花板上的画”与第九段There was a beautiful picture,…on the ceiling.相对应，故为正确答案。‎ ‎59. C。推理判断题。难度：中等。由题干的experience可定位于文章后两段。文章倒数第二段提到…I began to understand…by her words.（开始理解朋友所说话的意思），而在文章第一段提到…The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place…stubbornly.作者与朋友争吵了，朋友说作者的问题是不会为她着想。由此可推知作者感悟到：要要设身处地为别人着想。Ｃ项符合此意，故为正确答案。‎ ‎【难句学习】‎ ‎1.

The bear was thin and small, moving aimlessly.‎ Just a few minutes later, I heard my daughter shouting, “Dad! The bear is right behind us！” An aggressive bear will usually rush forwards to frighten away its enemy but would suddenly stop at the last minute. This one was silent and its ears pinned back—the sign(迹象) of an animal that is going in for the kill. And it was a cold April day. The bear behaved abnormally, probably because of hunger.‎ I held my camera tripod(三脚架) in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me. Its huge head was level with my chest and shoulders, and the tripod stuck across its mouth. It bit down and I found myself supporting its weight. I knew I would not be able to hold it for long.‎ Even so, this was a fight I had to win: I was all that stood between the bear and my family, who would stand little chance of running faster than a brown bear.‎ The bear hit at the camera, cutting it off the tripod. I raised my left arm to protect my face; the beast held tightly on the tripod and pressed it into my side. My arm could not move, and I sensed that my bones were going to break.‎ Drawing back my free hand, I struck the bear as hard as I could for five or six times. The bear opened its mouth and I grasped its fur, trying to push it away. I was actually wrestling(扭打) with the bear at this point. Then, as suddenly as it had begun, the fight ended. The bear moved back towards the forest, before returning for another attack—the first time I felt panic.‎ Apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat, the bear moved off, destroying a fence as it went. My arm was injured, but the outcome for us could hardly have been better. I'm proud that my family remained clearheaded when panic could have led to a very different outcome.‎ ‎60. The brown bear approached the family in order to ________．‎ A. catch shore birds B. start an attack C. protect the children D. set up a barrier for itself ‎61. The bear finally went away after it ________．‎ A. felt safe B. got injured C. found some food D. took away the camera ‎62.

B　细节理解题。A项为无效信息，因为文中没有提到棕熊捕杀鸟类的事情；根据第二段第二句“An aggressive bear will usually rush forwards to frighten away its enemy…”可推知B为正确答案。‎ ‎61. A　细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中“Apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat…”可知，棕熊是因为没有了威胁才走的，也就是感到了安全。B、C、D选项都是文中没有提到的信息，为无效信息。‎ ‎62. C　推理判断题。根据文章最后一段内容“I'm proud that my family remained clearheaded when panic could have led to a very different outcome.”可知，他们全家保持了头脑清晰(clearheaded)，若非如此，可能结果就迥异了。所以选C。‎ ‎【十】‎ It was Mother's Day morning last year and I was doing shopping at our local supermarket with my fiveyearold son, Tenyson. As we were leaving, we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her head on the concrete. Her husband was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock.‎ Walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very upset about what had happened to the couple. He said to me, “Mum, it's not much fun falling over in front of everyone.”‎ At the front of the supermarket, a charity(慈善) group had set up a stand selling cooked sausages and flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower. “It will make her feel better，” he said. I was amazed that he'd come up with this sweet idea. So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. “Just take it，” she replied. “I can't take your money for such a wonderful gesture.”‎ By now paramedics(急救人员) had arrived, and were attending to the injured woman. As we walked up to her, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment.

So we went over to the flower seller…”可知，B项是正确的；根据第三段中的最后一句可知，卖花的人非常认同作者母子的做法，故C项是错误的；根据最后一段可知，老太太并没有感动得落泪，故D项是错误的。‎ ‎58．C　词义猜测题。根据文章第四段中的“He said he was just too scared to go up to her.”可知，儿子被鲜血和医生救助的场景吓到了，他害怕了，故选择C项。astonished 惊讶的，震惊的；struck被打击的；excited激动的，兴奋的。‎ ‎59．A　主旨大意题。B项只是个时间点，在本文中并没有详尽表述；C项只是文中的一个小细节；D项在文中没有具体描述。综合全文可知，只有A项概括了全文的事实和主旨，故选择A项。‎
