In my way of thinking, that39。s a miracle.”可知,智者給作者說 的話對他接下來幾天要做的決定提供了清晰的思路和暗示的提醒。故選B。 (5)考查主旨大意。根據(jù)最后一段,針對我們當(dāng)下不同的需求,奇跡時時處處都以不同原因存在著。我們的工作不是質(zhì)疑這些離奇的事情,更多的是接受生活帶給我們的這些禮物。故選A。 (6)考查推理判斷。從智者的行為“ing down from the top of this historic mountain”下山;和智者對作者說的話“Sometimes you don39。t know what you have lost until you39。ve lost it. ”在失去前你不知道你得到了什么可推斷,智者告訴作者要珍惜現(xiàn)在所擁有的。故選D。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,詞義猜測,推理判斷和主旨大意四個題型的考查,是一篇故事類閱讀,要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上,進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。4.閱讀理解 I39。d like to share a little story with you about something that happened when I was four. I remember it clearly. Our loving family dog was nearing the end of his life. My father picked him up and put him in a little bed we had made for him. Our dog, my panion, whom we had cared for, bit my father when he attempted to help him. How could he? Why? I couldn39。t understand it. I didn39。t like him anymore. I hadn39。t thought about that story for a long time but something that happened last week brought it back to me. I went to speak with a friend. When I knocked on the door, I met in an instant an angry look and a few harsh(尖刻的)words. When the door was slammed(砰地關(guān)上)in my face, I stood there shocked, and in a rush, I was reminded of my dog bit my father 20 years ago or so. What brought that story back was that same feeling of betrayal. Both stories taught me something the next day. You see, when I got up in the morning and was told my dog had died, it became clear to me that he must have been in great pain. For him to have bitten a family member, he could not have been himself. Much the same for the other story when I learned that my friend39。s wife had just left him. We are all beings of our environments, our opinions and feelings. And all of those things can cause you to say and do things that can39。t be understood by those who are not in the same situation with you. If you meet someone either behaving out of character or acting in a way that doesn39。t seem to fit the situation, put out your hand and be patient when you think it is least possible for him to do so. You may turn around a story that has a sad ending simply by your actions.(1)What is the influence of the incident mentioned in Paragraph 1? A.It hurt his father39。s feeling deeply.B.It has puzzled the author ever since.C.It left a deep impression on the author.D.It made the author dislike dogs.(2)Why did the author39。s friend say harsh words to the author? A.He was illtempered.B.He was suffering the pain of losing his wife.C.He was bothered by an unexpected visit.D.They once quarreled and he couldn39。t forgive the author.(3)What39。s the author39。s advice to us? A.Help those in need.B.Look before you leap.C.Respect for others is a kind of virtue.D.Learn to put yourself in others39。 shoes.【答案】 (1)C(2)B(3)D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇記敘文,作者朋友因為失去妻子很痛苦以不友好的態(tài)度對待作者,使作者想起了20年前狗狗咬了父親這件事情,從兩件事情中得出了一個道理:很多因素都會影響人的行為,所以最后總結(jié)出,當(dāng)我們看到別
