【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 rtance of reading literature often seems lost on many Chinese people. Even experts in education think that the first goal of education is to encourage a love of learning. There is therefore the possibility of something wrong with the way students are taught here. Why should they read literature? Do stories have value pared with the reading and learning of facts? Studies show clearly that the most powerful ways of learning are by experience, action and doing experiments and taking risks. Yet there are so many important things to learn that cannot be learned in these ways: feelings, problem solving, danger and relationships, for example. Research into this has shown how deep reading is a valuable experience different to a learning of words or facts. Keen(熱心的) readers of literature show a better understanding of others. Their abilities to make good decisions are raised. Young children who enjoy a parent reading stories to them show greater awareness(意識(shí)) when they reach school age. The best schools do seem to provide a limited (有限的) chance to enjoy literature, usually about the Chinese classic stories but there is not enough free time for students. There are enough reading materials (材料). Chinese book shops are full of story books, and most of them are of good quality (質(zhì)量) in terms of content, plot (情節(jié)) and language. Was there not a Chinese author who received a Nobel Prize for literature recently? There are moves in Chinese education to promote (提升) decision making and shared values. The value of literature is helpful to these as well as to the future of China.（1）What does the author think of the way students are educated in China?

The value of literature is helpful to these as well as to the future of China.”中國(guó)的教育中有一些促進(jìn)決策制定和價(jià)值觀共享的舉措。文學(xué)的價(jià)值不僅有助于這些，而且有助于中國(guó)的未來(lái)?？芍喿x文學(xué)有助于培養(yǎng)良好的價(jià)值觀。故選A。 （4）考查主旨大意。根據(jù)第一段中的“The importance of reading literature often seems lost on many Chinese people.”許多中國(guó)人似乎忽視了閱讀文學(xué)作品的重要性；以及最后一段中的“There are moves in Chinese education to promote decision making and shared values. The value of literature is helpful to these as well as to the future of China.”中國(guó)的教育中有一些促進(jìn)決策制定和價(jià)值觀共享的舉措。文學(xué)的價(jià)值不僅有助于這些，而且有助于中國(guó)的未來(lái)。結(jié)合文章主要內(nèi)容為說(shuō)明閱讀文學(xué)作品的重要性，故可知文章的主旨大意是閱讀文學(xué)作品應(yīng)該受到重視。故選B。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和主旨大意兩個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇文化類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，同時(shí)根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。5．閱讀理解 A Harvard study of their graduates over thirty years found that there were only a small percentage (3%) of them who actually wrote down their goalsand these were the most successful! You can be certain that every one of those students had repeatedly heard the value of goal setting. Yet only 3% actually wrote down their goals consistently. Imagine what you can do if you both write down your goals and, then, focus on them consistently, until they are acplished! What is it that causes the New Year39。s Resolution Syndrome? People make resolutions, work hard at them for a few weeks, maybe even a few months, and then forget them. Next year, they make the same New Year39。s resolutions. That is the syndrome. So why do so many people do it? They may be making goals that are too global, and too unrealistic. The elephant analogy (比喻) is still the best one I know of to illustrate good goal setting. How do you eat an elephant? One spoonful at a time. So it is with goals. Make spoon size goals and acplish them easily. Once you39。ve mastered this, get a bigger spoon! You may have too many people in your life who consciously or subconsciously are unwilling or unable to support you to reach your goals. Surround yourself with people who want you to have what you want for yourself. Support each other and you39。ll all achieve your highest goals. We must be careful not to confuse busyness with progress. Be selective about how you use your time and what you focus on. Success often es when you know what to leave out, rather than what to include in your life. Goal setting is like the pig and chicken who were out for a walk in town early one morning. The chicken became really excited when she saw a sign that said Ham amp。 Eggs, $. She said to the pig, Look, we39。ve got double billing again. The pig grunted and said, That39。s all right for you to say. For you, it39。s all in a day39。s work. For me, it39。s total mitment. Goal setting is all in a day39。s work. Goal achievement is total mitment.（1）What can w
