2.In the mid-1950s,I was a somewhat bored early-adolescent male student who believed that doing any more than necessary was was ted effort.One day,this approach threw me into embarrassment.
In Mrs.Totten's eighth-grade math class at Central Avenue School in Anderson,Indiana,we were learning to add and subtract decimals(小數(shù)).
Our teacher typically assigned daily homework,which would be recited in class the following day.On most days,our grades were based on our oral answers to homework questions.
Mrs.Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the order the questions had appeared on our homework sheets.She would start either at the front or the back of the classroom and work toward the other end.
S ince I was seated near the middle of about 35 students,it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer.This particular time,I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.
What I failed to expect was that several students were absent,which threw off my estimate.As Mrs.Totten made her way from the beginning of the class,I desperately tried to determine which math problem I would get.I tried to work it out before she got to me,but I had brain freeze and couldn't function.
When Mrs.Totten reached my desk,she asked what answer I'd got for problem No.14."I…I didn't get anything,"I answered,and my face felt warm.
"Correct,"she said.
It turned out that the correct answer was zero.
What did I learn that day?First,always do all your homework.Second,in real life it isn't always what you say but how you say it that matters.Third,I would never make it as a mathematician.
If I could choose one school day that taught me the most,it would be that one.

分析 本文是一篇記敘文.作者回憶了自己青春期早期,非常的自負(fù).然而,在一堂數(shù)學(xué)課上所發(fā)生的一件尷尬的事情,給作者一次有價值的教訓(xùn),也讓作者明白了許多道理.
解答 32.D.句意理解題.根據(jù)文章第一段I was a somewhat bored early-adolescent male student who believed that doing any more than necessary was wasted effort.及下文作者的講述可知此句的含義是:做任何必要的都是白費(fèi)力氣.故D正確.
33.A.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第五段中Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students,it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer.可知作者坐中間,很容易推算出他要回答的問題.故A正確.
34.B.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第六段首句What I failed to expect was that several students were absent,which threw off my estimate.可知由于幾位同學(xué)缺席,導(dǎo)致了不能夠知道他回答哪個問題.故B正確.
35.D.推理判斷題.文章作者回憶了自己青春期早期,在一堂數(shù)學(xué)課上所發(fā)生的尷尬的事情,給作者一次有價值的教訓(xùn).故D正確.
點(diǎn)評 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進(jìn)行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實(shí),要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.
