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,要求考生在捕捉細節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上,進一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。4.閱讀理解 It was at least two months before Christmas when nineyearold Rose told her father and me that she wanted a new bicycle. As Christmas drew nearer, her desire for a bicycle seemed to fadeor so we thought, as she didn39。t mention it again. We bought the latest fashionable Baby Sitter39。s Club dolls, a holiday dress and some beautiful story books. Then, much to our surprise, on December 23rd, she proudly announced that she really wanted a bike more than anything else. It was just too late, what with all the details of preparing Christmas dinner and buying lastminute gifts. We could only think of the bicycle and the disappointment of our child. What if I make a little bicycle out of clay and write a note that she could trade the clay model in for a real bike? Her dad asked. The theory, of course, being that since that is a highticket item and she is such a big girl, it would be much better for her to pick it out. So he spent the next five hours painstakingly working with clay to make a tiny bike. Three hours later, on Christmas morning, we were excited for Rose to open the little heartshaped package with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note. Finally, she opened it and read the note aloud. She looked at me and then at her dad and said, so does this mean that I trade in this bike that Daddy made me for a real one? Beaming, I said, Yes. Rose had tears in her eyes when she replied, I could never trade in this beautiful bicycle that Daddy made me. I39。d rather keep this than get a real bike. At that moment, we would have moved heaven and earth to buy her every bicycle on the planet!(1)Rose39。s parents didn39。t buy her the bike she wanted because ______. A.they had bought many other wonderful things for herB.they thought she had changed her mindC.they didn39。t have time to do any shoppingD.they decided to make one for her(2)Why did Dad make the clay bicycle? A.He thought Rose was too young for a real bike.B.He didn39。t want to disappoint his daughter.C.He thought his daughter would like it.D.He wanted to give his daughter a surprise.(3)From the story, we know that ______. A.Rose39。s father was an artist with special skillsB.Rose would trade in the clay bike for a real oneC.The parents were moved and proud of the girlD.Rose was a thoughtful and independent girl【答案】 (1)B(2)B(3)C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇記敘文,Rose希望圣誕節(jié)收到一輛自行車。父母沒有給她買自行車,因為他們認為Rose可能對自行車失去了興趣,為了滿足女兒的愿望,爸爸決定給她做個粘土的自行車讓她去換個新的,但是Rose決定保留這個粘土自行車,不要新的自行車。 (1)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的As Christmas drew nearer, her desire for a bicycle seemed to fadeor so we thought, as she didn39。t mention it ,作者夫妻倆認為Rose買自行車的愿望褪去了,所以沒給她買。故選B。 (2)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的We could only think of the bicycle and the disappointment of our child可推知,作者夫妻因為沒有幫女兒實現(xiàn)圣誕節(jié)的愿望而內(nèi)疚,為了不讓Rose失望,決定做一個黏土自行車模型先送給Rose,之后Rose可以用它來兌換一輛真正的自行車。故選B。 (3)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段“ At that moment, we would have moved heaven and earth to buy her every bicycle on the planet!”作者夫婦愿意竭盡全力給Rose買自行車可推知:這對父母親為女兒的行為而感到并覺得自豪。故選C。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查,是一篇故事類閱讀,考生需要準確捕捉細節(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 Russ Gremel, now 98 years old, decided it was time
