【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 s children than we do as adults. A child39。s day is filled with fascination, newness and wonder. Curiosity gave us all a natural awareness. But distinctions that were sharp to us as children bee unclear。 we are numb(麻木的）to new stimulation(刺激), new ideas. Relearning the art of seeing the world around us is quite simple, although it takes practice and requires breaking some bad habits. The first step in awakening senses is to stop predicting what we are going to see and feel before it occurs. This blocks awareness. One chilly night when I was hiking in the Rocky Mountains with some students, I mentioned that we were going to cross a mountain stream. The students began plaining about how cold it would be. We reached the stream, and they unwillingly walked ahead. They were almost kneedeep when they realized it was a hot spring. Later they all admitted they39。d felt cold water at first. Another block to awareness is the obsession(癡迷) many of us have with naming things. I saw bird watchers who spotted a bird, immediately looked it up in field guides, and said, a rubycrowned kinglet and checked it off. They no longer paid attention to the bird and never learned what it was doing. The pressures of time and destination are further blocks to awareness. I encountered many hikers who were headed to a distant campground with just enough time to get there before dark. It seldom occurred to them to wander a bit, to take a moment to see what39。s around them. I asked them what they39。d seen. Oh, a few birds, they said. They seemed bent on their destinations. Nature seems to unfold to people who watch and wait. Next time you take a walk, no matter where it is, take in all the sights, sounds and sensations. Wander in this frame of mind and you will open a new dimension to your life.（1）According to Paragraph 2, pared with adults, children are more ____________. to do wonders to others39。 feelings to develop unpleasant habits to explore the world around them（2）What idea does the author convey in Paragraph 3? avoid jumping to conclusions. stop plaining all the time. follow the teacher39。s advice. admit mistakes honestly.（3）The bird watchers39。 behavior shows that they __________. very patient in their observation really fascinated by nature only about the names of birds the accuracy of the field guides（4）Why do the hikers take no notice of the surroundings during the journey? natural beauty isn39。t attractive to them. focus on arriving at the camp in time. forest in the dark is dangerous for them. are keen to see rare birds at the destination.（5）In the passage, the author intends to tell us we should __________. our senses to feel the wonders of the world rid of some bad habits in our daily life our mind to new things and ideas our best to protect nature【答案】 （1）D（2）A（3）C（4）B（5）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇散文。我們有多久沒(méi)有仔細(xì)觀察我們周?chē)氖澜缌恕Ｗ髡咄ㄟ^(guò)此文要告訴我們：放慢腳步，帶著我們所有的感官來(lái)感受周?chē)澜绲钠婷睢＃?）推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第二段Most of us observed much more as children than we do as adults.

We all use them, often without noticing what we39。re doing. I was arranging to meet someone for dinner last week, and I said I39。ll pencil it in my diary, and my friend said You can ink it in, meaning that it was a firm arrangement not a tentative one! Many of these new verbs are linked to new technology. An obvious example is the word fax. We all got used to sending and receiving faxes, and then soon started talking about faxing something and promising we39。d fax it immediately. Then along came , and we were soon all ing each other madly. How did we do without it? I can hardly imagine life without my daily s. Email reminds me, of course, of my puter and its software, which has produced another couple of new verbs. On my puter I can bookmark those pages from the World Wide Web that I think I39。ll want to look at again, thus saving all the effort of remembering their addresses and calling them up from scratch. I can do the same thing on my PC, but there I don39。t bookmark。 I favorite—ing from favorite pages, so the verb es from an adjective not a noun. Now my children bought me a mobile phone, known simply as a mobile and I had to learn yet more new verbs. I can message someone, that is, I can leave a message for them on their phone. Or I can text them, write a few words suggesting when and where to meet, for example. How long will it be before I can mobile them, that is, phone them using my mobile? I haven39。t heard that verb yet, but I39。m sure I will soon. Perhaps I39。ll start using it myself!（1）I39。ll pencil it in my diary in the second paragraph probably means . was a firm arrangement prefers a pencil to a pen arrangement should be written as a diary was an uncertain arrangement（2）A website address can be easily found if it has been______. （3）Which of the following has not been used as a verb yet? （4）The best title for this passage is____. and Language. of the English language Technology and New words Verbs from Nouns【答案】 （1）D（2）A（3）B（4）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，通過(guò)多個(gè)例子告訴我們很多名詞都已經(jīng)轉(zhuǎn)換成了動(dòng)詞。說(shuō)明詞匯是并不斷的在變化。 （1）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“meaning that it was a firm arrangement not a tentative one!”用鉛筆寫(xiě)意為著不是最終的決定，只是臨時(shí)的決定，故選D。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“I favorite—ing from ‘favorite pages’,
