But my experience was a romantic one. I paved my path to Paris through an exchange program. On arrival in Paris, I was constantly reminded of the official processes I had to plete — forms to be filled in, meetings to attend, the list seemed endless. Then the real work began. Once classes were underway, I found myself volunteering to do oral presentations and assignments first, rather than last. This method proved to be very helpful. Once I had finished class for the week, I had an everincreasing list of museums to visit, neighborhoods to explore, and caf233。s to sit in. Read books about Paris. Talk to locals and other foreigners living there. But the one thing that reading a book or talking to someone cannot do is to provide you with the experience of wandering Paris on foot. The people watching, the sounds of the city, the colors as the seasons change, they all add to the ecstasy that I experience in Paris as an exchange student. After spending five months wandering through the charming neighborhoods, I fell in love with the atmosphere that came out from every open door, and with every spoken word. There is something forting about walking to the market each Sunday to enjoy the beautiful display of fruits, vegetables and dairy products. There is warmth in saying bonjour to the passersby. On my last day in Paris, I confidently said, Bonjour Monsieur, as I passed the little store down the street. I guess the best part about going on exchange in Paris is falling in love with the city in your own way. And I know mine is unique and special to me, my own little pieces of Paris.(1)What does the underlined word ecstasy in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

I paved my path to Paris through an exchange program”可知,作者作為一名交換生來到巴黎,他認為自己的巴黎之行非常浪漫。從第二段到最后,文章詳細敘述了作者在巴黎的所見所聞,內(nèi)心感受等。故整篇文章講述的是一個交換生在巴黎的經(jīng)歷。故選A。 (3)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“The one thing that reading a book or talking to someone cannot do is to provide you with the experience of wandering Paris on foot. I discovered some of my favorite places in Paris by wandering”可知,讀書以及和人交談無法提供步行在巴黎閑逛帶給你的體驗。通過閑逛,作者在巴黎發(fā)現(xiàn)了一些自己最喜歡的地方。由此可知,除了讀書,作者最珍惜的經(jīng)歷是在巴黎閑逛。故選D。 (4)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“The best part about going on exchange in Paris is falling in love with the city in your own unique way. Everyone39。s experience of Paris is different. I know mine is unique and special to me, my own little pieces of Paris”可知,給作者留下最深的印象是他在這個城市的獨特經(jīng)歷。而從上文可知,他在巴黎體驗到了不同的風土人情,不同的文化。故選B。 【點評】本題考點涉及推理判斷,詞義猜測和主旨大意三個題型的考查,是一篇故事類閱讀,要求考生根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關系,進行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。5.閱讀理解 For most of her life, Suanne Laqueur39。s passion for storytelling was shown on the dance floor. Although Laqueur began writing at a young age, dancing always took center stage. She majored in dance and theater at Alfred University and taught at her mother39。s dance studio in CrotononHudson, New York, for years. But when her mother was ready to retire and an opportunity opened for Laqueur to take over the studio, she realized she had no interest in taking on the business side of her art: Owning a studio is a lot of work—financially, logistically. I love the teaching, the choreographing(編舞), the staging, but I didn39。t want to own it. Yet Laqueur39。s disinterest in running the studio changed when she became a selfpublished author. In the fall of 2013, she decided to pursue Selfpublishing as a way of sharing her first pleted novel with friends and family. During the process, she realized that following her true passion—telling stories through writing—made the business of the art worthwhile, and owning that business meant she could direct her writing career however she chose. Starting with her second selfpublished novel, she began investing more time in marketing and building her audience. Her investment paid off. Since 2014, Laqueur, now 49, has selfpublished six novels, which collectively have hundreds of ratings and reviews on Goodreads. Her 2016 novel An Exaltation of Larks stole the show at the 25th Annual Writer39。s Digest SelfPublished Book Awards, topping more than 2,300 entries to win the grand prize. You have to write the most truthful story to you, and I think selfpublishing allows that freedom,39。 she says. If you work with traditional publishing, it39。s more about what39。s marketable, There are tradeoffs, which everyone will tell you, but by selfpublishing I have control of the book, I have control of the story, and I39。m cool with that.(1)From Paragraph 2, we can learn that Laqueur _______. A.was a parttime writer when she was youngB.didn39。t like teaching dancing in
