题目内容
20.I guess I always knew about the little fish treat,but this past summer it was all I could see.Pipin and Nemo were flying through hoops(圈),dancing with the trainer,and we were all applauding(鼓掌)-the little kids were excited.That's when the trainer,rewarded Pipin and Nemo with a fish.Each time they successfully performed a trick,they'd get an immediate reward.These animals weren't really dancing,of course.They were performing a series of movements that they knew would have a fish.It's such a good show because the sea lions look like they're having such fun.These talented performers who love to be in front of people seem almost human.
Somewhere in our life journey,we all have a sea lion moment.You see how you've spent years jumping through hoops,not because it's really who you are,but because you've always done it and you will get reward for your performance.But when you've done that for ten or twenty years,you start to ask yourself,"Who am I working for?What do I really believe?"Suddenly you see it:you've spent almost all your life taking direction(方向) from other people.They've told you what to believe in,what to work for,how to live your life.You don't want to end your life like George.George is speaking to his son Ted,who cannot follow in his father's steps.He wants to leave college and head off on his own way."Dad,I can't stand it any more,"the boy says."Maybe it's all right for some kids.Maybe I'll want to go back some day,but now,I want to do what I want to and become myself."George,seeming old,says,"I've never done a single thing I've wanted to in my whole life!"
The Good-Bye Gate brings us naturally to a second passage,leading from being dependent to being self.You start to find out that where there is supposed to be a self,there really isn't.

分析 ,作者由海狮的表演联想我们的人生之路,作者认为,我们重复很多年做的事并不是出于本心,而是客观因素使得我们做一些事.
解答 62-65 DABD
62 D 细节题.由第一段最后一句"Each time they successfully performed a trick,they'd get an immediate reward."及第二段第二句"…that they knew would produce a fish."可知,海狮知道如果他们动作表演得好就会得到鱼作为奖励,所以在观众面前它们看起来很乐意表演,D项符合文意.故正确答案为D.
63 A 主旨题.由第三段内容可知,作者认为,从某种程度上,我们的人生之路与海狮有相似之处,我们重复很多年做的事并不是出于本心,而是由于受到了客观因素的影响.有的人甚至一辈子都没有做过一件因自己想做而做的事.作者一边看海狮表演一边思考人生的哲学,A项符合文意.B项意为"想起去年同一个场景",C项意为"忍不住地叫喊跳舞",D项意为"看见他们自由自在地生活很高兴",均不符合文意.故正确答案为A.
64 B 主旨题.由第三段第二句中"…not because it's really who you are,but because you've always done it and the system rewarded you for your performance."可知,作者由海狮的表演联想我们的人生之路,作者认为,我们重复很多年做的事并不是出于本心,而是客观因素使得我们做一些事,B项符合文意,其他三项文中均未提到.故正确答案为B.
65 D 主旨题.由文章内容可知,作者由海狮的表演联想我们的人生之路,我们重复很多年做的事并不是出于本心,而是客观因素使得我们做一些事,有的人甚至一辈子都没有做过一件因自己想做而做的事.可见,本文旨在强调恢复本心,成为真正的自己,D项符合文意.故正确答案为D.
