18．My Left Foot （1989）   Imagine being a prisoner of your own body，unable to make any movements except to move your left foot．The main character in My Left Foot，based on the real story of cerebral palsy （大腦性麻搏）sufferer Christy Brown，can barely move his mouth to speak，but by controlling his left foot，he's able to express himself as an artist and poet．For his moving performance of Brown，Daniel Lewis won his first Academy Award for best actor．
Shine （1996）
  Do you have a talent you're afraid to share with the world？David Helfgott seemed meant from childhood to be"one of the truly great pianists，"but the pressures of performing （and pleasing his father） resulted in a complete breakdown．Ten years in a mental institution didn't weaken Helfgott's musical gift：When he was rediscovered，he was playing concertos in a bar．Shine received seven Oscar nominations （提名），and Geoffrey Rush won best actor for his performance of Helfgott．
Life Is Beautiful （1997）
  Nothing's more powerful than the love between a parent and a child．In this heartbreaking Italian film，a father （Roberto Benigni） makes an unbelievable sacrifice for his 4-year-old son：trapped in a Nazi concentration camp in 1945，the Jewish man convinces his boy that they are playing a complicated game．He manages to spare him the horror of the terrible war，and even in his final moments of life，keeps his son smiling and hopeful．Benigni won the best actor Oscar．
Stand and Deliver （1988）
   Few people can inspire us more than a good teacher．Jaime Escalante （Edward James Olmos got Oscar nomination for best actor） is a great one．Employed at a high school where kids are expected to fail，Escalante challenges his math students to struggle for better things，like getting good grades in the AP exam．Despite the obstacles in their lives，the classmates accomplish their goals，thanks to Mr．Escalante's support．The real Jaime Escalante，the Best Teacher in America，says that Stand and Deliver is"90% truth，10% drama．"

D．The main characters are all sick to some degree but succeed．

分析 介紹了四部具有正能量的電影，以及電影的主角還有故事的梗概．

解答 CDBAB
36．C 猜測句意題．根據(jù)unable to make any movements except to move your left foot句意可知，除了左腳，其他都不能移動可知，主人公應(yīng)該是一個殘疾人，故答案為C．
37．D 細節(jié)題．根據(jù)文章中trapped in a Nazi concentration camp in 1945，the Jewish 可知，這個父親被困在1945年的納粹集中營，所以故事是發(fā)生在戰(zhàn)爭期間，故答案為D．
38．B 判斷推理題．根據(jù)最后一段Employed at a high school where kids are expected to fail，Escalante challenges his math students to struggle for better things受雇于一所中學(xué)，學(xué)生都是成績不及格，可知Escalante是一名老師，故答案為B．
39．A 細節(jié)題．最后一段Edward James Olmos got Oscar nomination for best actor告訴我們Edward James Olmos 獲得了奧斯卡最佳男演員獎，故答案為A．根據(jù)第一段 Christy Brown是電影中的主角，所以B錯誤；Ten years in a mental institution didn't weaken Helfgott's musical gift所以在精神院里的不是Geoffrey Rush，所以C錯誤；38題推出Jaime Escalante 沒有彈鋼琴的天賦．
40．B 判斷推理題．根據(jù)四部電影的介紹可知，第一部Christy Brown是殘疾人，最后成了藝術(shù)家；第二部David Helfgott 在身患重病后通過努力獲得奧斯卡獎；第三部深陷戰(zhàn)爭的父親仍然讓孩子保持樂觀；第四部一個老師通過努力幫助很多孩子，共同點在于都屬于正能量，有激勵的作用，故答案為B．

點評 做閱讀理解時要快速的瀏覽全文，把握文章主旨大意，帶著問題回到原文，尋找細節(jié)或概括相應(yīng)的答案，最后要理清作者寫作思路．

8．Grandpa was a carpenter （木匠）．One day he was making some boxes for the clothes，his church was sending to an orphanage （孤兒院） in Egypt．On his way home，he reached into his shirt pocket to find his glasses，but they were gone．He drove back to the church，but his search turned out to be fruitless．Suddenly，he realized what happened．The glasses had slipped out of his pocket and fallen into one of the boxes，which he had nailed shut．His new glasses were heading for Africa!Grandpa had six children and he had paid twenty dollars for the glasses that morning．"It's not fair，"he told God as he drove home．"I've been very faithful （忠誠的） in giving my time and money to your work．"
