Only in silence do I hear the self and wonder who that person might be.

And how strong it feels to be unfortable sometimes. ”可知作者在冰島旅行時冒雨爬山，飲食簡單，并且體驗到了種種不適，故推測作者的旅行是艱苦的，故選D。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“with no less confusion on who I want to be. 和 The answer is in front of me with every step on my own 1ife39。s path, and in every choice I make. ”可知作者不再困惑，她知道真正自我的答案就在日常生活中，就在她所做出的每個選擇中，故推測作者旅行回來后變樂觀了。故選A。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“I suspect the anxiety that drove me to seek silence in Iceland was losing sight of my ability to choose gratitude and joy，and to be present in the challenges I set in my career and my family. ”可知作者懷疑驅(qū)使她去冰島的焦慮正在讓她失去選擇感恩和快樂的能力，也讓她看不到在家庭和事業(yè)中的挑戰(zhàn)。故推測作者以后不會逃避生活，并且能夠勇敢面對生活中暫時的困惑。故選B。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇故事類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。5．閱讀理解 I visited Elba last June, joining Mary and John on a bicycling vacation. They made the arrangements for the car, hotel and bicycles. I studied the history of the island, which of course particularly features Napoleon. Napoleon (now I know) picked Elba as a place for peace when he was forced to give up the throne (王權(quán)) as Emperor of France in 1814. Far from being a prison island, Elba is beautiful with towering mountains, thick forests and sweeping bays and beaches. It is also an island filled with treasure. Very early on this island, locals discovered rich deposits of iron. Soon outsiders, too, discovered the iron and 150 other valuable minerals on this little piece of land. Long before Etruscans and other Greeks set foot on it, Dorians had moved in by the tenth century B. C. and were mining the island. The Romans ruled next, obtaining the minerals and building grand houses overlooking the sea. From the twelfth century until the nineteenth, the island was traded back and forth and was passed to France in 1802. Then came Napoleon, the new ruler of Elba. I was eager to visit his house in Portoferraio. The Emperor lived with his court and his mother, but his wife, Marie Louise had ensconced herself in the splendid Viennese palace of her father, Emperor of Austria. She lived safely there and showed little interest in visiting her husband in his minikingdom. Apparently, Napoleon wasn39。t troubled much by this. He was too busy riding everywhere on horseback, building roads, modernizing agriculture and, above all, sharpening his tiny army and navy into readiness for his escape. In the formal gardens behind the house it seemed to me that I could imagine the exiled (流放的) conqueror39。s anxious thoughts. He might gaze over where I stood now, toward the lighthouse of the Stella fort, the sandy bay, and across it, the green mountains of the Tuscan coast. Napoleon spent only ten months here before making his victorious return to France and the throne.（1）What did the author do for the visit to Elba?

C. and were mining the island.”可知早在伊特魯里亞人和其他希臘人踏足該島之前，多里安人在公元前10世紀(jì)就已遷入該島，并在島上采礦。故Dorians可能是最早到Elba的外來者，故選C。 （3）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第三段中的“She lived safely there and showed little interest in visiting her husband in his minikingdom.”可知Marie Louise住在Viennese很安全，對去她丈夫的小王國探視毫無興趣。live對應(yīng)上文的ensconce，意思為“定居；安置”，故選A。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“In the formal gardens behind the house it seemed to me that I could imagine the exiled (流放的) conqueror39。s anxious thoughts.”可知在房子后面的花園里，作者仿佛能想象出那個被流放的征服者的焦慮的思想。即作者在參觀拿破侖的花園時想到了拿破侖對重新掌權(quán)的野心。故選C。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，是一篇故事類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，同時根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進行分析，推理，而選出正確答案。6．閱讀理解
