题目内容
【题目】 【1】 One day, when I was perhaps six years old, I was walking with my father on a crowded street. All of a sudden, the normal flow of pedestrian traffic backed up as people tried to avoid a large object on the sidewalk. To my astonishment, the object turned out to be a human being, a man lying unconscious against a building. 【2】 Certainly no one made eye contact. As we walked by ,my father — the model of a loving, caring gentleman — pointed to a bottle in a paper bag and told me that the poor soul on the sidewalk just needed to sleep it off. Then the drunken man began to murmur senselessly. My father warned me not to go near, saying "You never know how he’ll react."
【3】 I had spent the previous 12 months traveling in poor Asian cities, but even by those standards this was a scene of misery. In addition to being desperately poor, the locals had to live in the extremely hot climate, ridiculously huge crowds and a fairly strong wind blowing dust everywhere. Suddenly a man carrying a huge bag of peanuts called out in pain and fell to the ground. 【4】 A half dozen sellers ran from their stands to help, leaving unattended what might have been the totality of their possessions. One put a blanket under the man's head; another opened his shirt; a third questioned him carefully about the pain; a fourth fetched water; a fifth kept onlookers from crowding around too closely; a sixth ran for help.【5】 The performance could have passed for a final exam at a paramedic (护理人员)school.
A.I then witnessed an astonishing scene.
B.Not one of the passers-by seemed to notice that it was a man.
C.This was totally different from the bitter experience I had in New York.
D.Within minutes, a doctor arrived, and two other locals joined in to assist.
E.I soon came to see that day's lesson as basic knowledge for a New Yorker.
F.I'll always remember a lesson that I learned as a boy growing up in New York City.
G.Yet many years later I had a very different experience while visiting a market in Rangoon.
【答案】
【1】F
【2】B
【3】G
【4】A
【5】D
【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在纽约,人们看到躺在地上的人,匆匆走过,漠不关心;在亚洲的一个贫困地区,人们遇到遇困之人却愿意不顾自己的摊位对别人施予援助,两种经历形成了鲜明的对比。
【1】下文One day, when I was perhaps six years old, I was walking with my father on a crowded street.(大概在我六岁左右的一天,我和父亲正在拥挤的街道上行走)与F. I'll always remember a lesson that I learned as a boy growing up in New York City.( 我总是会想起我还是一个孩子的时候在纽约长大学到的一个经历。)承接自然,从下文的when I was perhaps six years old可知作者在回忆过去,和选项中的I learned as a boy growing up in New York City相对应,故选F项。
【2】下文Certainly no one made eye contact.(当然也没人和他进行眼神交流)与B. Not one of the passers-by seemed to notice that it was a man.(过路人似乎没有一个注意到这个人)承接自然,上下文是并列关系,on one和not one是关键词,故选B项。
【3】根据下文I had spent the previous 12 months traveling in poor Asian cities, but even by those standards this was a scene of misery.(我花了12个月在亚洲一些贫穷的地方旅行,但即使按照那些标准,这也是个悲惨的场景)与G. Yet many years later I had a very different experience while visiting a market in Rangoon.(多年以后,我在仰光的一个市场上有了一次完全不同的经历)承接自然,选项在此起开启下文的作用,Rangoon和Asian cities是关键词,故选G项。
【4】下文A half dozen sellers ran from their stands to help, leaving unattended what might have been the totality of their possessions.( 六个卖家从旁观到过来帮忙,而且是不顾自己值钱的摊位跑过来帮忙)与A. I then witnessed an astonishing scene.(然后,我看到了一个惊人的场景)承接自然,下文是陈述所看到的内容,故选A项。
【5】上文One put a blanket under the man's head; another opened his shirt; a third questioned him carefully about the pain; a fourth fetched water; a fifth kept onlookers from crowding around too closely; a sixth ran for help.(一个人在他的头上盖了一条毯子;另一个人打开了他的衬衫;第三个人仔细询问他疼痛的原因;第四个人去取水;第五个人不让围观者记得太近了;第六个人跑过来帮忙)与D. Within minutes, a doctor arrived, and two other locals joined in to assist.(几分钟之后,一名医生到了,另外两个当地人也来帮忙)承接自然,上下文话题一致,都讲述人们迅速过来帮忙的场景,故选D项。
