Question

【題目】

Dad is an arborist- that’s like a tree doctor. He and mom love trees. That’s why they named me Sylvia. It means “tree girl” or something like that.

Dad started me climbing trees four years ago. He always tells me to untie the carabiner (攀爬鎖扣) from the end of my rope when I swing from one tree to another. “That way it can’ t get stuck on a branch (樹枝),” he says. “But, Dad, it’s faster to leave it on, I tell him. And I’m pretty good with the ropes now. Mom worries a little, but Dad says it’s as safe as walking if you follow the rules.

Today I was doing what I love best—climbing up one tree (a sugar maple), swinging over to another (a red oak) that’s close by, then coming down that second tree. It’s like flying, or dancing with the trees. But right now I don t feel great; in fact, I feel pretty stupid.

________ Fist, I used an ascender (上升器) to go up. I put my rope over a branch and around the tree, and clipped it to my harness (背帶). Next, I let out line till I was about halfway down the tree. Then I kicked off the tree and swung way out and grabbed the next tree. The swinging part is a little scary at first, but lots of fun. Then I unclipped (解開) the rope from my harness so I could pull it out of the maple and put it in the oak. That’s when I should have untied the carabiner. But I didn’t. It got caught on a branch, and I’m stuck. I wonder what to do.

Klee-eer! I hear the call and look up. a beautiful hawk (鷹) glides overhead. I sure wish I could fly right now. Klee-eer! It calls again. Maybe the hawk is wondering what I’m doing up here. It loops around and glides back over my head.

Wait a minute—a loop! That’s it! Suddenly I know what to do Thank you, hawk!

【答案】

【1】B

【2】B

【3】D

【4】C

【解析】

本篇講述因為父親職業(yè)的原因，我經(jīng)常有機會在樹上玩，父親經(jīng)常會教我一些爬樹的經(jīng)驗，但有一次我沒有聽從父親的教導(dǎo)導(dǎo)致被困樹上，受到鷹的啟發(fā)才得以解困。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。由上文可知父親告訴我當我從一棵樹蕩到另一棵樹的時候要解開繩子末端的鉤環(huán)；根據(jù)第四段“That’s when I should have untied the carabiner. But I didn’t.”—— 就在那時我應(yīng)該解開鎖。但我沒有；可知作者沒有按照父親的指導(dǎo)，故選B。

【2】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段的描述自己如何被困在樹枝上的過程，故選B。

【3】詞義猜測題，根據(jù)下文“It loops around and glides back over my head”——loop around意為“來回循環(huán)” ，根據(jù)常識可知鳥在樹叢的飛行速度是不可能快，由此推斷glides的意思“慢慢的飛行”，故選D。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“Wait a minute—a loop! That’s it! Suddenly I know what to do”—— 等等，一圈！就這樣！突然我知道該怎么辦了；可知作者受到鷹的啟事，找到該怎么做，推斷她可以安全的著地，故選C。

本篇是閱讀單選，考查細節(jié)理解、詞義猜測和推理判斷能力。解答前要先快速閱讀全文，理解大意；再閱讀題干，正確理解題干的要求；然后回歸原文，尋找有用信息作答；本篇題型設(shè)定題1是細節(jié)理解題，解答時要在原文中找出題干包含的信息部分，這樣可以正確地捉住有效信息，確保答題的準確性；題2推理判斷題，要閱讀第四段，歸納總結(jié)段意；

解答完，要通讀全文，核實答案和原文信息是否一致。
