Question

【題目】 A little stream ran down from a high mountain far, far away through many villages and forests, until it reached a desert. The stream then thought, “I’ve been through countless difficulties. I should have no problem crossing this desert! But as she started her journey, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed and was very unhappy. “Maybe I can’t reach the ocean in the end,” she said sadly to herself.

At this time, a deep voice came, “If a breeze (微風(fēng)) can cross the desert, so can a river. “It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream replied, “That’s because a breeze can fly, but I cannot.”

“That’s because you can’t give up what you are. If you like to do it, and left yourself evaporate (蒸發(fā)) into the breeze, it can take you across, and you can reach the ocean.” said the desert, “Give up what I am now and disappear into the breeze.”No! No! The little stream could not accept this idea. After all, she had never experienced anything like it before. “The breeze can carry the vapor (蒸汽) across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again to continue its course,” explained the desert very patiently. “And whether you’re a river or vapor, your nature never changes,” continued the desert. Hearing this, the little stream rushed into the open arms of the breeze, while carried her to the next stage of her life.

【解析】

本文講述的是一條小溪在過(guò)沙漠的時(shí)候，遇到了困難，最后在沙漠的建議下，小溪改變了自己的形態(tài)，變成了水蒸氣，在風(fēng)的幫助下，最后越過(guò)了沙漠！

【1】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中“Maybe I can’t reach the ocean”可知，小溪的目的地是海洋。故選B。

【2】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中“I’ve been through countless difficulties. I should have no problem crossing this desert!”可知，在小溪到達(dá)沙漠之前，它經(jīng)歷了無(wú)數(shù)的困難，所以說(shuō)在此之前它沒有擔(dān)心過(guò)去海洋的旅程。故選D。

【3】

詞意猜測(cè)題。stream小溪；breeze微風(fēng)；vapor蒸汽；desert沙漠。根據(jù)第三段中“left yourself evaporate (蒸發(fā)) into the breeze”可知，沙漠告訴小溪變成水蒸氣，因?yàn)轱L(fēng)可以穿過(guò)沙漠，所以風(fēng)也可以帶著小溪變成的水蒸氣穿過(guò)沙漠，所以此處it代指breeze。故選B。

【4】

主旨大意題。結(jié)合全文內(nèi)容可知，小溪在過(guò)沙漠的時(shí)候，遇到了困難，最后在沙漠的建議下，小溪改變了自己的形態(tài)，變成了水蒸氣，在風(fēng)的幫助下，最后成功越過(guò)了沙漠，告訴我們一個(gè)道理：為了成功，我們應(yīng)該改變我們過(guò)去的方式。故選D。

【5】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中“Hearing this, the little stream rushed into the open arms of the breeze, while carried her to the next stage of her life.”可知，小溪聽從了沙漠的建議，它變成了水蒸氣到了風(fēng)中，微風(fēng)帶著它穿過(guò)了沙漠。故選A。
