One January, I had to hold two funerals for two elderly women in my munity. Both had died full of years, as the Bible would say. Their homes happened to be near each other, so I paid condolence(吊唁) calls on the two families on the same afternoon. At the first home, the son of the deceased(過世的)woman said to me, If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It39。s my fault that she died. At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, If only I hadn39。t insisted on my mother39。s going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride, the sudden change of climate, was more than she could take. It39。s my fault that she39。s dead. You see that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action they took turned out bad, they believe that the opposite course—keeping Mother at home, putting off the operation—would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse? There seem to be two elements involved in our willingness to feel guilty. The first is our need to believe that the world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for everything that happens. That leads us to find patterns and connections both where they really exist and where they exist only in our minds. The second element is the view that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen. It seems to be a short step from believing that every event has a cause to believing that every disaster is our fault. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood. A baby es to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. He wakes up in the morning and summons the rest of the world to his tasks. He cries, and someone es to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him, and when he is wet, people change him. Very often, we do not pletely outgrow that childish view that our wishes cause things to happen.(1)What is said about the two deceased elderly women? lived out a natural life. died of exhaustion after the long plane ride. weren39。t used to the change in weather. died due to lack of care by family members.(2)The author had to conduct the two women39。s funerals probably because . wanted to fort the two families was an official from the munity had great pity for the deceased was minister of the local church(3)People feel guilty for the death of their loved ones because . found the funerals unsatisfactory believed that they were responsible had ignored the natural course of events didn39。t know things often turn in the opposite direction(4)People have been made to believe since babyhood that . should try to meet others39。 needs and death is an unsolved mystery story should have a happy ending wishes are the cause of everything that happens【答案】 (1)A(2)D(3)B(4)D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夾敘夾議文,作者通過兩個(gè)已故夫人的兒子自責(zé)的話語,引出并分析了人們產(chǎn)生負(fù)罪感的兩個(gè)因素。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“Both had died‘full of years’, as the Bible would say.”正如《圣經(jīng)》所說,兩人都已“老死”。可知,這兩個(gè)老婦人是正常、自然死亡的。故選A。 (2)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中的“as the Bible would say”正如《圣經(jīng)》所說;以及“One January, I had to hold two funerals for two elderly women in my munity.”一月的一天,我要為我們社區(qū)的兩位老婦人舉行兩場(chǎng)葬禮??芍髡咝叛觥妒ソ?jīng)》并主持葬禮,由此推出作者的身份應(yīng)為牧師。故選D。 (3)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“Because the course of action they took turned out bad, they believe that the opposite course—keeping Mother at home, putting off the operation—would have turned out better.”因?yàn)樗麄儾扇〉男袆?dòng)結(jié)果是糟糕的,他們認(rèn)為相反的做法——讓母親呆在家里,推遲手術(shù)——結(jié)果會(huì)更好。可知,他們認(rèn)為如果自己選擇相反的做法,母親就不回去世了,認(rèn)為自己有責(zé)任。故選B。 (4)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的“A baby es to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it.”一個(gè)嬰兒開始認(rèn)為世界的存在是為了滿足他的需要,他讓一切都發(fā)生在世界上??芍藗儚膵雰簳r(shí)期就意識(shí)到是他們的愿望是世界上一切發(fā)生的原因。故選D。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇人生感悟類閱讀,考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息,并根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理,從而選出正確答案。8.閱讀理解 The arts, especially music, should be part of every school39。s lessons at every grade level. Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience. They could improve their classroom skills, like paying attention and following directions. People develop all these skills when they learn music. Making music also lets children use their imagination. It provides students with a chance to try out their own ideas. Music not only makes children better students, but also gives them something positive to do. In a music program, children can be part of a band instead of joining a gang(團(tuán)伙). Parents can enjoy listening to their children39。s music instead of seeing them gluedto a puter or TV screen. In a school band, students get to be part of a team. They can get along well with old friends and make new friends through music. Music builds self-confidence, too. It gives children a sense of achievement and success. Making music is something for them to be proud of, and it lets kids practice performing in front of an audience. Music gives children an opportunity for self-expression, and that helps develop their self-confidence. Once again, music is important because it can make children better students, give them something positive to do, and build their character. That is why music should be offered in every single grade in every school.(1)According to the passage, music could make students smarter by ________. their classroom skills and attention their classroom skills and imagination their attention, direction and imagination music, making music and trying out their own ideas(2)What does the underlined phrase glued to in the second paragraph mean? to turn on. looking. to leave. playing.(3)The third paragraph mainly tells
