The parents couldn’t tolerate _______the messy ________in the room.

A.seeing, scene      B.to see, sign        C.seeing, view       D.to see, scenery

 

【答案】

A

【解析】

試題分析:tolerate的基本意思是“容許”“忍受”“容忍”,主要指克制自己而容忍厭惡或反對的事情,其原因可以是由于冷漠或不在乎,也可以是出于和睦的愿望而“寬恕”那些難堪的人、物或行為。在程度上可指沒有任何反抗,也可指帶有強烈痛苦。

tolerate在口語中有時還可作“不與(某人)一般見識”“讓著某人”解。

tolerate是及物動詞,可接名詞、代詞或動名詞作賓語。

tolerate后可接動名詞,但一般不能接動詞不定式。例如:

我將不能忍受他抽煙。誤:I will not tolerate him to smoke.正:I will not tolerate him smoking.

scene的基本意思是指戲劇中的“一場”,電影、電視的“一個鏡頭”,小說中的“一節(jié)”。scene作“背景,現(xiàn)場,地點”解,強調(diào)戶內(nèi)外某時某地發(fā)生的事件的場面及其給人的印象,這一場面不一定是令人愉快的或好看的。scene還可作“景色,景象”“發(fā)脾氣,吵鬧”解。

scene作“地點”解時用于單數(shù)形式,常與定冠詞the連用,后接of短語作定語。作其他意思解時是可數(shù)名詞。

scenery統(tǒng)稱“風(fēng)景”時,不加冠詞a,也沒有復(fù)數(shù)形式。scenery指“總體的、全部的風(fēng)景”,表示的是室外的、自然存在的美麗景色; 指“布景”時,表示的是整個舞臺的布置。

view指從某一個角度看到的風(fēng)景。

sign的基本意思是“標(biāo)記,符號”,指寫在或刻畫在物體上的,代表具有固定意義的一種簡明的符號或標(biāo)志,使人一看便知道它所代表的意義。sign引申可作“手勢,姿勢”“信號”“征兆,跡象”解。

sign后常接of短語作定語,有時還可接動詞不定式或that從句作定語。

根據(jù)tolerate的用法故排除BD。根據(jù)句意故選A。

考點:考查動詞及名詞辨析。

點評:本題難度適中。同義詞辨析是高考的熱點,在高中階段有很多的這種需要辨析的同義詞或近義詞,考生要牢記它們的用法及區(qū)別。

即學(xué)即練:The postman asked me to_____ for the letter.

A. scene   B. sign   C. view      D. scenery

解析:B。句意:郵差叫我簽名收信。

B
Anthony Horowitz was miserable (痛苦的) as a child. He was, as he puts it, “not very bright” and couldn’t win the attention of his very wealthy parents, who preferred his “clever” older brother. At age 8, Horowitz was sent away to an abusive (虐待的) boarding school in his native England, even though he screamed and pleaded (懇求) with his parents year after year not to send him. “The thought was, ‘It’ll be good for him’,” Horowitz recalls (回憶).
It was not. Horowitz did badly in his studies, had few friends and was bullied (欺負(fù)) for five years. “My teachers couldn’t have had a lower opinion of me,” he said. “I wasn’t even smart enough to rebel (反抗). The one thing I remember from the very earliest age was this desire to write. When I was 10 years old, I remember asking my parents to get me a typewriter for my birthday because I wanted to be a writer.”
Now, at 55, Horowitz is one of the world’s most successful children’s book authors. His Alex Rider series has sold more than 5 million copies, and the eighth book featuring the young spy, Crocodile Tears, came out this month.
The Alex Rider books tell the adventures of 14-year-old Alex Rider, an agent for the British intelligence agency MI6.
Horowitz said he doesn’t try to write for kids; it just comes out that way. “I have a feeling it’s to do with purity and simplicity. I give as little information as is necessary to describe the room, the character in the room, and get on with the action,” he said.
That style has also made Horowitz a successful writer of television shows for adults in Britain because, he says, writing books for kids is a lot like writing television for grown-ups: In both cases, it’s all about entertaining people with a good story.
Now, Horowitz couldn’t be happier with his life. He sums up his success: “…you can be anything you want to be if you just believe in yourself. I do believe it completely.”
61. The text is mainly about _____.
A. Horowitz’s popular book – Alex Rider       B. Horowitz’s miserable childhood
C. Horowitz, a successful children’s writer        D. Horowitz’s special writing style
62 In his childhood, Anthony Horowitz _____.
A. was more intelligent than his brother       
B. was paid more attention by his parents
C. couldn’t understand why he was sent to the boarding school
D. led a miserable life because of poverty
63.In the boarding school, Horowitz’s teachers ______.
A. showed great concern for him                B. often abused and bullied him
C. taught him how to write stories               D. thought little of his ability
64. Which of the following is true of Anthony Horowitz?
A. He was the beloved child of his family.       
B. He benefited a lot from boarding school.
C. He emphasizes the plot rather than character in stories.
D. Although he is successful, he isn’t very happy.
65. What advice does Horowitz have for readers?
A. Confidence is the key to success.           B. Hardship teaches valuable lessons.
C. Interest is the best teacher.                D. Diligence is the parent of success.

Sometimes children do not do what their parents tell them to do. When this happens,a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing. When this does not work, the parent usually punishes the child.
There are many things that a parent can do.One thing that people have done is to spank the child. When a parent spanks a child, they will use their hand or a hard object to strike them on their bottom. This is meant to show the child that they have done something wrong.
One parent remembers being spanked when he was a child. His parents used a wooden spoon. When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark on his child’s leg. He never did that again.
One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other person is doing. Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard.Sometimes will use spanking for everything and not try other ways to get the child to do the right thing.
Many parents are not sure of what to do instead of spanking. Some people think that their religion(宗教) tells them that spanking is okay. Some think that the law lets them do it. The courts(法院) say that parents have the right to teach their children how to behave.
Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child. Telling the child exactly what is wanted from them can be one thing. Giving a child more than one choice is another thing that can be tried. Getting down to the child’s level and taking a more child-friendly approach(方法) can help as well.
【小題1】According the passage, when children do something wrong, one thing that parents usually do to punish them is to ________.

A.strike them on the bottom
B.try to help them to do the right thing
C.teach them what to do
D.take them to court
【小題2】What does the underlined word “spank” mean?
A.打屁股B.下跪C.罰站D.打手心

D.It makes parents try other ways to make the child do right.
【小題4】Which of the following can best describe the writer’s attitude towards spanking?
A.favorableB.indifferent(不關(guān)心)C.interestedD.unfavorable
