Question

13．One day Peng Xiaozhe learned he would go to Mashan School in Guizhou．The 16-year-old-year tried to imagine how serious the drought was for the students at that school．However he realized it was more serious than he had imagined when he saw the sign"Don't wash the clothes with water，or you'll be punished．"
Because of the drought，the school has been short of water for a long time．Each student has only one bottle of water every day for washing and drinking．The drought has made the poor students much poorer．
Peng is a student from Beijing Chaoyang Foreign Language School．He took part in the school's Rain & Bow project  from April 2 to 10．
The project idea came from Peng's principal．One day she heard a sad story about Li Guoxian，a poor girl from Mashan School，who stopped going to school because of the drought．The principal started this project to help the school．In one day 3，000 students made over 10，000 donations of water，books and clothes．
Peng and four other students went to Mashan School and gave the donations with five teachers．They visited poor families，made surveys and had classes at school．
Ding Zhentao，16，was worried about the school's poor learning environment．"The blackboards and playgrounds are too shabby（破舊不堪的） to use，"Ding says，"Besides，there really aren't enough teachers．A teacher has to teach both English and history．And even a cook is a class teacher．"
Although life is not easy，students at the school have a positive attitude（積極態(tài)度） towards life and they are quite willing to learn．That's what moved the 16-year-old Chen Shi most．
"They sang their songs as usual before class every afternoon．After class，the students asked us to tell them things about Beijing and our studies，"Chen said，"You can see the passion（熱情） in them．I believe it will make a difference．Their future will be bright．"

Answer 1

分析 這篇文章主要告訴我們Mashan School差的學(xué)習(xí)環(huán)境：嚴(yán)重缺水；操場和教師破舊不堪；教師不足等問題，因此彭和其他四個同學(xué)及五個老師去Mashan School捐款．

解答 38 C 根據(jù)Because of the drought，the school has been short of water for a long time學(xué)校已經(jīng)很長時間沒水了；Each student has only one bottle of water every day for washing and drinking每個學(xué)生每天只有一瓶水用于洗滌和飲用，推測drought的意思是干旱，旱災(zāi)，故答案為C．
39 A 根據(jù)The project idea came from Peng's principal這個項目的想法來自彭的校長；The principal started this project to help the school校長啟動這個項目來幫助學(xué)校，意思與A項吻合，故答案為A．
40 D 根據(jù)Peng and four other students went to Mashan School and gave the donations with five teachers彭和其他四個同學(xué)及五個老師去Mashan School捐款，故答案為10個人，故答案為Dten．
41 A 本題屬于主旨歸納題：前文花大量篇幅介紹了Mashan School的嚴(yán)重的缺水問題，然后彭和其他四個同學(xué)及五個老師去Mashan School捐款，后面寫到同學(xué)擔(dān)心學(xué)校糟糕的學(xué)習(xí)環(huán)境，綜合起來這篇文章主要告訴我們Mashan School差的學(xué)習(xí)環(huán)境，故得出正確答案為Athe poor learning environment of the Mashan School，其余三項意思均與文章有出入．

點評 準(zhǔn)確理解文章的意思及上下文的語境是解題的關(guān)鍵，同時要注意對細節(jié)的把握．
