【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives( 觀點 ) by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.
With this belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people's writing can one discover what works, what doesn't and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.
Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read books. Reading reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn't necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.
(1)What can be inferred about the author as a child?
A.He never watched TV.
B.He found reading unbelievable.
C.He considered reading part of his life.
D.He read what he had to.
(2)The underlined word “voice” in the second paragraph most probably means “________”.
A.a belief
B.a way of writing
C.a sound quality
D.a world to write about
(3)What effect does reading have on the author?
A.It opens up a wider world for him.
B.It helps him to realize his dream.
C.It makes his college life more interesting.
D.It increases his interest in worldwide travel.
(4)Which of the following can be the best title of this text?
A.How do I read?
B.What do I read?
C.Why do I read?
D.When do I read?

【答案】
(1)C
(2)B
(3)A
(4)C
【解析】作者從小的時候就非常喜歡閱讀,這個習慣也讓他有了成為一名作家的想法。而這一夢想反過來又更加督促他去更多的閱讀,因為這樣他才能表達自己的思想。作者覺得閱讀對于他來說是很重要的。

(1)推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文第一段中I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing可知,作者從小生活在一個很少開電視,卻有很多書的家庭里,他童年的大多數(shù)時候都是在讀書中度過的,他覺得讀書就像呼吸一樣的自然。由此可知,作者覺得讀書是他生活的一部分。故應選C。

(2)細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文中Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with.可知,作者想要成為一名作家,他覺得每個作家都是以閱讀開始的,這樣他才能找到正確的方式去表達自己的想法。因此這里的voice指的就是一個作家的寫作方式。故應選B。

(3)推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文的最后一段Reading reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn't necessarily be able to have in my lifetime可知,閱讀對于作者來說是非常重要的,它可帶著作者穿過海洋,沿著絲綢之路,去體驗令人激動的經(jīng)歷,這些經(jīng)歷可能在作者的一生中不會擁有的。因此選項中A選項最符合文意,閱讀給作者打開了更廣闊的世界。故選A

(4)主旨大意題。這篇短文介紹的是作者從小的時候開始就非常喜歡閱讀,這個愛好還讓作者想要成為一名作家,而這個夢想反過來又讓作者讀得更多,到大學的時候,作者意識到了閱讀是多么的重要。因此文章的主題是作者為什么閱讀,不是怎樣讀、讀什么或什么時候讀。故應選C。

【題目】 My first home was a beautiful meadow with a pond of clear water. There were some large trees near the pond. On one side of the meadow was a field and on the other was the house of our master, Farmer Grey. He was a kind man.

My mother and I had a happy life. She worked during the day. I played with the other young horses and had great fun. At night I lay next to her.

One day, my master sold me to Squire Gordon. He lived with his family in a big house.

"You're a beautiful horse, he said. "You have a beautiful black coat. I shall call you Black Beauty."

I learned to carry my master on my back and pull a coach. I learned to ware reins (纜繩) and a bit in my mouth, I did not like them but all the horses had to wear them.

My master had two horses. One of them was Merrylegs. He was very friendly. The other was Ginger. She was not friendly. She bit and kicked people.

Ginger and I pulled a coach together. The coachman's name was John Ginger and I worked very hard. We became friends.

Ginger told me about her life when she was young. She told me. "My master was not kind to me. My reins and bit hurt me. My master did not care."

Squire Gordon and his men felt sorry for Ginger. They were always king to her. She stopped biting and kicking people. She became a happy horse.

One day in autumn Squire Gordon went on a long journey, John went with him and I pulled the coach. The weather was rainy and windy. Mr. Gordon and John could not see well in the rain. We came to a bridge. I stopped. “Something is wrong,” I thought, I did not want to go on to the bridge. Mr. Gordon and John wanted me to go on to the bridge. I did not move. Just then a man saw us."Hey there! Stop!" he cried.

"What is it?" shouted the Squire.

"The bridge is broken in the middle, he answered. "If you go on to it, you are all going to drown in the river."

"Thank God!" said the Squire. "Thank you, Beauty!" said John. We turned around and went along the road by the river. For a long time no one said anything. Then John said: "Black Beauty saved our lives. He knew the bridge was dangerous."

When we returned home, the Squire told Mrs. Gordon: "We are all safe, thanks to Black Beauty!"

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
On the first day of school our teacher introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't already know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.
I turned around to find a little old lady with a warm smile. She said, “Hi, handsome. My name is Rose. I'm eighty-seven years old.”
“Why are you in university at such a YOUNG age?” I asked. She replied, “I'm here to meet a rich husband, get married, have a couple of kids, and then retire and travel.”
I knew she was joking. I was curious what might have encouraged her to be taking on this challenge at her age.
“I always dreamed of having a university education and now I'm getting one!” she told me. We became friends. Every day we would talk nonstop after class. I always enjoyed listening to this “time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me. And Rose easily made friends wherever she went.
At the end of the term we invited Rose to make a little speech. She cleared her throat(喉嚨) and began, “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. I've learned a few secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You've got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die.”
“There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity(機會) in change...”
