Question

4．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(diǎn)） by creating worlds we could step into，take part in and live in．
With this unshakable 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，or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world．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 fiction （文學(xué)作品）．As a law student，my reading is in fact limited to subject matter-the volume （量） of what I have to read for classes every week means there is little time to read anything else．Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life．Reading fiction 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．

Answer 1

分析 文章講述的是讀書的作用．也就是為什么要讀書？

解答 41．D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第一段第2，3行I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives（觀點(diǎn)）by creating worlds we could step into，take part in and live in．可知D正確，他把閱讀當(dāng)成了生活的一部分．
42．C 猜測詞義題．根據(jù)上句Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say，but being unable to find the right ways to say it．可知這里的voice不是指說話的方法或能力，而是指作家自己的寫作方法，他們需要通過閱讀來找到自己的寫作方法．所以答案選C．
43．B 推理判斷題．根據(jù)文章第三段Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life．Reading fiction reminds me that there is life beyond my own．It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road．可知閱讀不同的內(nèi)容拓寬了作者的思維和世界，故B正確．
44．A 主旨大意題．文章講述的是讀書的作用．也就是為什么要讀書？所以答案選A．
