The first week of January saw him leave England and travel to Jamaica. The first week of March saw his accepted his job at Kemsley newspapers without promise—this portion of the year would be set aside for Jamaica or he would look elsewhere for employment.及第三段中的For 6 years Fleming traveled each winter to Jamaica, lounging in paradise, romancing women, chasing the sunset??芍?,他接受了在肯斯利報業(yè) 的工作也沒有妥協(xié)——一年中的有兩個月將到牙買加(度假),或者他會去其他地方找工作,故選D。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的but it was not until he faced the pressure of a married woman who was pregnant with his child did Fleming start the writer39。s journey可知,F(xiàn)leming走向?qū)懽髦穪硪活愖砸晃粦言械膵D女的壓力,故選B。 (3)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的 but it was not until he faced the pressure of a married woman who was pregnant with his child did Fleming start the writer39。s journey which would change his life and popular culture forever.中的末尾的定語從句中的時態(tài)would表明定語從句中的內(nèi)容是發(fā)生在Fleming開始寫作之后,而且他自己從未想過自己的會改變他的一生和流行文化。故選A。 (4)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的Fleming39。s career as a writer deserves more examination than can be offered here, but suffice it to say, over the next 12 years, Ian Fleming transformed his elite existence, his arrogance, his style, and his acid wit into some of the greatest thrillers ever written. 弗萊明的寫作生涯值得更多的審視,但在接下來的12年里,伊恩弗萊明把他的精英生活、他的傲慢、他的風(fēng)格和他尖刻的機智轉(zhuǎn)變成了一些有史以來最偉大的驚悚小說。根據(jù)句中的elite existence, arrogance, style, and acid等詞都是與個性特點有關(guān),表明了Fleming在他的小說中融進(jìn)了自己獨特的個性特點,故選C。 (5)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第五段中的Fleming filled out the 12 years of Bond with great adventure journalism. Even in stories which had little action or pay off, such as his short nonfiction book, The Diamond Smugglers, the Flemingflair ensured exciting reading.可知,F(xiàn)leming 用adventure journalism(新聞式的歷險故事)“充滿”了關(guān)于Bond的故事。Bond是他所寫的故事的主角,即Fleming在小說中讓這個主角經(jīng)歷了各種各樣的“歷險”,由此可知,B項符合題意。原文中journalism并非與新聞界有關(guān),只是用于描述Fleming的故事的特點,因此其他三項是對journalism的誤解。故選B。 (6)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第七段中的Fleming39。s full life caught up with him through his hear和最后一段中的Nonetheless, Fleming fought the losing battle of his weakening heart by throwing more fuel on the fir都提到了heart一詞,而最后一段中的losing battle of his weakening heart明確了Fleming無法戰(zhàn)勝他的心臟病,并最終輸?shù)袅伺c心臟病的“戰(zhàn)斗”。由此可知,F(xiàn)leming是死于心臟病的,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,是一篇人物類閱讀,要求考生根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理,從而選出正確答案。7.閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項。 Kincaid looked at his watch: eightseventeen. The truck started on the second try, and he backed out, shifted gears, and moved slowly down the alley under hazy sun. Through the streets of Bellingham he went, heading south on Washington 11, running along the coast of Puget Sound for a few miles, then following the highway as it swung east a little before meeting Route 20. Turning into the sun, he began the long, winding drive through the Cascades. He liked this country and felt unpressed stopping now and then to make notes about interesting possibilities for future expeditions or to shoot what he called memory snapshots. The purpose of these causal photographs was to remind him of places he might want to visit again and approach more seriously. In later afternoon he turned north at Spokane, picking up . Route 2, which would take him halfway across the northern United States to Duluth, Minnesota. He wished for the thousandth time in his life that he had a dog, a golden retriever, maybe, for travels like this and to keep him pany at home. But he was frequently away。 overseas much of the time and it would not be fair to the animal. Still, he thought about it anyway. In a few years he would be getting too old for the hard fieldwork. I must get a dog then. He said to himself. Drives like this always put him into a sentimental mood. The dog was part of it. Robert Kincaid was alone as it39。s possible to be—an only child, parents both dead, distant relatives who had lost track of him and he of them, no close friends. He thought about Marian. She had left him nine years ago after five years of marriage. He was fiftytwo now, that would make her just under forty. Marian had dreams of being a musician, a folksinger. She knew all of the Weavers39。 songs and sang them pretty well in the coffeehouse of Seattle. When he was home in the old days, he drove her to the shows and sat in the audience while she sang. His long absences—two or three months sometimes—were hard on the marriage. He knew that. She was aware of what he did when they decided to get married, and both of them had a vague sense that it could all be handled somehow. It couldn39。t when he came from photographing a story in Iceland and she was gone. The note read, Robert, it didn39。t work out. I left you the Harmony guitar. Stay in touch. He didn39。t stay in touch. Neither did she. He signed the divorce papers when they arrived a year later and caught a plane for Australia the next day. She had asked for nothing except her freedom.(1)Which route is the right one
