We all, at one time or another, have pretended to be a rock star, singing and dancing along to our favorite song. Most of us have done this in the privacy of our own room when we were kids and as adults, in the privacy of our homes. Me? I love to do that when I drive! I turn on the radio, find a song that I can sing along too and pretty soon my arms are in the air and I am moving along to the rhythm. Most of the time, I do this on my way to work.
Yes, that is true, I will be in my nice work clothes, jamming while driving or stopped at a traffic light I get weird(古怪的)looks from some people and others laugh. Personally, I love to get lost in the rhythm of a song which leads me to share with you the importance of being silly!
The definition for the word silly, according to the dictionary is: stupid, foolish and nonsensical. I know many people do not want to look foolish. So they walk around all serious, which in all honesty, is foolish!
No one is perfect, I repeat: no one is perfect. I don't care how educated, how thin, how beautiful, how simple, how frugal (節(jié)儉的), how rich, and so on...No one is perfect! So why pretend to be something you are not?
Life is so short. You never know when this beautiful journey will be over, so why waste a single second on being so full of rigidity(呆板)? Here is a quote by Souza, that I think says it all and is a great recipe for life:
"Dance as though no one is watching you,
Love as though you have never been hurt before,
Sing as though no one can hear you,
Live as though heaven is on earth."
When we were kids, we had no idea of what limitations were and we had no care in the world so we could do things without worrying about how we appeared to others. However, as we grew up, we lost that childlike innocence.
So don't lose the child that still lives within you. The next time you feel down, go turn on your favorite song, and sing and dance along like there is no tomorrow or watch something that makes you laugh. Laughter is the best medicine to whatever ails (使……痛苦) you and nothing is better than laughing so hard that your stomach hurts. Trust me, you will feel a whole lot better, and who doesn't want to feel good?

試題分析:你有沒(méi)有過(guò)把自己想像成歌星,伴著自己喜愛(ài)的歌曲邊跳邊唱的時(shí)候呢?大多數(shù)人只是在自己私密的空間內(nèi)才會(huì)完全釋放自己,而本文作者卻是率性而為,尤其喜歡在開(kāi)車(chē)時(shí)候手舞足蹈地唱,不怕引得路人側(cè)目,也不怕被人看作是傻子。在作者看來(lái)人生是短暫的,人們沒(méi)必要偽裝自己,要活得開(kāi)心快樂(lè)。
1.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段 I love to do that when I drive!可知作者喜歡上班開(kāi)車(chē)時(shí)唱歌,答案選B。
2.D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由文章第三段So they walk around all serious, which in all honesty, is foolish!可知作者認(rèn)為正襟危坐,不茍言笑是愚蠢的行為,所以判斷D選項(xiàng)正確。
3.C推理判斷題。由上文Life is so short. …..so why waste a single second on being so full of rigidity可知作者認(rèn)為要珍惜生命,而引用Souza的話(huà)也恰好表明了和作者同樣的人生態(tài)度,由此推斷作者引用這段話(huà)的目的是為了說(shuō)明生活是值得珍惜的,所以C選項(xiàng)正確.
4.B主旨大意題。作者通過(guò)講述自己率性的行為,引出the importance of being silly,然后講述being silly 的必要性,所以B選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容更能體現(xiàn)文章中心,故正確答案是B。
