hat does the underlined word this in the last paragraph refer to? belief. culture. experience. rule.(3)Why did the author write the text? emphasize his kindness to others. introduce some western cultures to us. express his belief and his feeling. show his disbelief in Queuing Rule.【答案】 (1)B(2)C(3)C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇記敘文,講述了作者在買(mǎi)螃蟹時(shí)排隊(duì)很久,受到不公平待遇的經(jīng)歷,借此表現(xiàn)了西方文化的特點(diǎn)——要遵守次序,同時(shí)也表明了作者的感受和建議。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“I was ready to be served, but the staff person went to the end of the line and began to help a couple of ladies with snail (蝸牛).”可知,我準(zhǔn)備好了接受服務(wù),但服務(wù)員走到了隊(duì)尾給幾個(gè)想買(mǎi)蝸牛的女士提供了服務(wù),因此輪到作者的次序時(shí),作者并沒(méi)有得到服務(wù)。故選B。 (2)考查代詞指代。根據(jù)最后一段中的“But in some situations your turn does not always e based on when you get there and how long you have waited in line, just like my case at the store.”可知,在某些情況下,是否能輪到你的次序并不取決于你幾點(diǎn)到這里、排了多久的隊(duì),就像作者的情況一樣,因此“this”指代的是作者的親身經(jīng)歷。故選C。 (3)考查推理判斷。縱觀全文可知,本文講述了作者在買(mǎi)螃蟹時(shí)排了很久隊(duì)卻受到不公平待遇的經(jīng)歷。再根據(jù)最后一段中的“Even though this did not often happen, it did make me feel upset.”可知,作者認(rèn)為這種經(jīng)歷并不經(jīng)常發(fā)生,但仍使作者感到比較失望,表達(dá)了作者的想法和感受。故選C。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,代詞指代和推理判斷三個(gè)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)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,從而選出正確答案。8.閱讀理解 When I was three years old, I couldn39。t speak. It was a strange reality that none of the doctors I visited could understand. One day, I was shadowing(跟隨)my mother. She found herself looking in a mirror, and through it our eyes met. She began to speak to me through the reflection, and I slowly began to mimic(模仿)her mouth39。s movements until I formed a word. It turned out I39。m deaf in my left ear, and have a slight problem in my right. Being hard of hearing has been difficult, but I39。ve never lived in a state of selfhating sorrow. Imagine being able to shut out all sound as you lay your head down to sleep by simply rolling over onto one side. That39。s my reality when I sleep on my good ear, and it makes me feel like a superhero sometimes. People call my deaf side my bad ear, but when I wear my hearing aid, I have access to a range of features that some other deaf people don39。t. In cinemas, for example, with one click of a button I can enjoy a whole film as though it were whispered to me from the mouths of the actors. Owning a hearing aid hasn39。t always felt good, however. On the first day I got my aid, when I was eight, I took it to school for showandtell. As I explained how it worked to my classmates, a boy yelled out, Aren39。t those for old men? At that moment, I felt different. It took me a long time to get over that sense of being so unlike my peers. But it39。s not just school kids who can make us deaf and hardofhearing people feel like burdens. Every video on social media that lacks subtitles(字幕), for example, means an entire munity of deaf people is unable to enjoy it. Completely deaf people are excluded from enjoying many movies too, as subtitles in cinemas are almost impossible to find. And with hearing aids costing around $2,500 each, it can be hard for many people to afford to be able to listen to the things that others take for granted. As for me, I can listen to music, enjoy films, and catch conversations – I39。m lucky. I39。m deaf, but I can still hear everything. I39。ve been blessed with wonderful life experiences, and I am human. And when it es to sleeping, I39。m even superhuman.(1)How does the author view his hearing difficulty? 39。s a disaster and causes him a lot of trouble. gave him a chance to experience something special. made him feel embarrassed in front of his classmates. helped him to live in his own world without being interrupted.(2)What can be inferred from the passage about the author? was born deaf. is optimistic and helpful. hearing aid brings convenience to his daily life. family and classmates have supported him a lot.(3)What is the author39。s attitude toward his life? ....(4)What is the author39。s main purpose in writing the article? give advice on life to disabled people. show how difficult life is for disabled people. show the convenience a hearing aid could bring. share his experience of treating a disadvantage with gratitude.【答案】 (1)B(2)C(3)C(4)D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇記敘文,作者天生有聽(tīng)力障礙,但是他卻樂(lè)觀地對(duì)待自己的缺陷,想辦法讓自己的生活充滿了快樂(lè)。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)作者對(duì)自己日常生活 的描述,可知作者的聽(tīng)力障礙讓他有機(jī)會(huì)經(jīng)歷了一些特殊的事情,故選B。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的“And with hearing aids costing around $2,500 each, it can be hard for many people to afford to be able to listen to the things that others take for granted.
